Chapter 4 - Limitless Human

Asher stared at the Planet Mars and saw how it got destroyed just from the elder Demon colliding with it.

"Well, I'll have to restore it." Asher said as he recreated the entire planet of Mars back to it's original form.

He returned back to the Jardel continent in a mere few seconds and stood in front of the street leading to his house and was happy to see that every house on the street was still intact.

"Seems like the barrier I put in place wasn't a waste after all." Asher said to himself as he walked towards his home.

It was on every news channel that part of the Daven City was destroyed.

"The other kingdoms in the continent were prepared to send their war mages to help, but it seemed like everything was under control." Asher's mom said as she and her husband sat in front of the TV.

Asher stared at the TV as he ate and then the news switched to something more interesting.

"Asher! Your school is on TV." His mom said and it seemed so as the school's Internal Magic Competition which would host all the four schools of the four kingdoms of the Jardel continent.

Asher got up and walked up the stairs to his room and lay down on his bed thinking of what had happened during the day. The demon which was able to infiltrate the human world was the biggest question.

"I wonder how that happened." Asher thought to himself.

Meanwhile, in the demon world. The Demon King was furious about what had just happened.

"Who is that human?!" His voice thundered throughout the entire Demon world.

"I'm not sure my liege." Another demon answered. "But for Yutha to lose so easily, he must be a mighty foe." He added.

"Even at that!" The Demon King's voice shook the entire Demon world. "We demons are immortal and can't be killed, so I don't see how a human would be able to possess an ability that could kill us."

"I know of that my liege, but I have checked the underworld and Yutha's soul isn't there as well. It is as if he has been completely erased." The other demon said.

"Hmm. Interesting. Daejin, look into this human and report to me on what he is capable of." The Demon King said.

"As you wish my Lord." Daejin said and then disappeared through the crack.

The night was long and cold, Asher lay in his bed thinking about everything that happened and what the Demon's purpose was, when he felt something strange. He got up and opened his window and looked out.

He went out of his room and stood upon the roof of the house. He looked around to find what he sensed but it wasn't visible.

"He's able to sense my presence. Impressive." Daejin said to himself as he watched Asher. "With my Mana Eyes, I'll be able to determine his level and the abilities he has."

Asher then felt that someone was staring at him but he didn't seem to be able to find out who it was.

"W-what the-?" Daejin said in shock. "His powers are immense, even beyond that of the Demon King. But how can this be?"

Asher heard his voice and started walking in that direction.

"I must let my king know about this." Daejin said and started telepathically sharing the information he had gathered to the demon king.

"Found you." He heard a voice behind him, but before he turned around, he was swatted like a fly towards the clouds.

"Why were you watching me?" Asher asked.

"How can a human be this powerful?" Daejin said to himself as he started bleeding.

"You seem weaker than the previous demon but you seem to have more abilities than him." Asher said to Daejin.

"How did you know that?" Daejin said, astonished at how the human in front of him is able to know so much.

"You didn't think you were the only one with mana eyes right?" Asher said, further astonishing Daejin.

"A human with those eyes. That's unheard of." Daejin said.

"I know. But I'm special." Asher replied.

"But, you're still human, and all humans have a certain limit, and they can never surpass those limits." Daejin said.

"You see, that's where you're wrong. I surpassed my limits a long time ago and currently, the concept of limitations do not apply to me anymore." Asher said to Daejin.

"We'll see about that." Daejin said and produced and arrow from the darkness. "This arrow induces instant death the moment it hits it's target and moreover, it cannot be dodged or evaded. No amount of defense matters against this attack."

"Impressive." Asher said to him.

"You'll regret mocking me!" Daejin screamed at the top of his voice and let the arrow fly. Asher zoomed out of the Earth's atmosphere in an instant and went into outer space and reached a solar system 12 million light years away. But still, the dark arrow still followed him.

"Seems like he was right about no one being able to dodge it, but I was able to outrun it for a little while." Asher said as the arrow hit him in the chest.

"Hahahaha!," Daejin laughed at the top of his voice, "You thought you could escape it. I told you before didn't I, this attack can't be dodged. But I'll give you credit for being able to outrun it."

Asher just stared at Daejin with a smirk as he pulled the dark arrow from his chest.

"W-what? How are you able to do that?!" Daejin asked, shocked at this discovery.

"I've died 999,999 times and this is the millionth time that I'm living. In my previous life before this one, I learned about immortality and how it was explained to me there that I was somewhat immortal as I would just respawn in another world." Asher explained to Daejin. "But now, I've transcended death and cannot die under any circumstance."

Daejin was shocked to the core by Asher's words. "Since you attacked me with something as heavy as instant death, let me do a little something for you. I won't erase you but I'll kill you and make sure that you're resurrected in the demon world."

"Solar Boom." Asher said, and at that point, a tiny ball of energy appeared on Asher's index finger which then expanded and exploded, disintegrating both Daejin and the entire solar system with him.

Asher looked at the destruction he caused and then flew back to Earth so he could at least have a good night's rest.
