Fight with the Devil Serpent II

Somnus and Helen were playing around with the devil serpent, casually dodging its attacks. Somnus would sometimes come close and strike but he was met with the high speed regeneration of the Devil Serpent.

Helen dodged another claw by a jump and rotated her body, mid-air. Helen's archery was like an acrobat in the air. She would rotate her body mid air, keep herself up in the air by using the recoil of her arrow. Somnus was mesmerized by her performance and almost got caught by the Devil Serpent's claw.

Somnus watched as Helen kept playing witb her bow in the air, never intending to go down. She would use the recoil of her bow to reposition herself in the air.

Somnus saw in the corner of his eyes that his parents were done with theirs already and was watching them. Somnus felt the need to finish it quickly.

Somnus used his magic and entered the shadow realm and reappeared at the back of the unsuspecting Devil Serpent. He threw a flask on the Serpent's body and immediately entered the shadows. The flask broke and the scent made the Devil Serpent paralyzed.

Somnus once again came out of the shadows and reappeared in front of the Serpent as he threw two flask but different colored than the one he threw earlier.

As soon as the flask broke, the contents touched the air and immediately exploded. It was a special mixture that Somnus invented with the help of his magic. He couldn't make the explosive flask because when it touched the air it would explode, but when he did it in the shadow realm where air was nonexistent, he succeeded. Somnus would continue to improve it and learn the techniques of other worlds to create his own inventions.

The explosion and paralysis still wasn't enough because the Serpent is still standing. It used its hair as injections and rushed towards them but Somnus used his dagger and sliced through the hairs, he looked at Helen who got down from playing in the air. She poured ethernano in the arrow and charged it. The serpent noticed the danger and tried attacking Helen but Somnus was there to block the attack from the hair. He didn't expect the hair injection to suddenly spew out acid. He didn't dare to block the acid with his dagger.

Somnus pulled out a shield from his storage ring and poured ethernano to it. A barrier surrounded him and Helen. The acid continued attacking the barrier. Helen started chanting after pouring enough ethernano into the arrow. Strong gush of air surrounded Helen before gathering into the arrow. Helen pointed her bow on top of her and released the arrow.

The arrow pierced the barrier easily and flew upwards.

"Meteor Shower." Helen said and the arrow splitted and flew toward the devil serpent. Green Beams of energy showered the Devil Serpent obliterating it from the waves of green beams of energy.

Although she had the strength to protect herself, she can't bring to hurt her little sister and letting Aria do what she wants. Now that it was only her, Somnus, and the enemy in front of them. She unleashed her strength. Regis whistled after seeing the obliterated Devil Serpent.

"Looks like my daughter-in-law is really capable." Regis said with a vulgar laugh causing Hera to smack the back of his head.

Noctis and Irene on the other hand stared at each other.

"Wanna do it or let me?" Noctis asked.

"No, let me. I can't let my future relative show off like that." Irene said which made Noctis sigh.

"*Sigh* Women." Noctis said and dodged Irene's attack.

"Alright, how're you doing it then? Enchantments? Runes? Magic? or Weapon?" Noctis asked and Irene thought of it.

"Magic it is." As the Mother of All Dragon Slayers, Irene is an attributeless Dragon, which means that she doesn't have any attribute overwhelming her body.

Irene transformed her hand into that of a dragon Regis and Hera were surprised to see that. They thought that she had a beast soul but when Irene's transformation included her arms, their eyes went wide with shock. They thought that it was only a soul takeover, but the aura that Irene's arms were emitting... it was pure unadulterated dominance. And of all the things that Hera have read about, only a dragon could contain such natural dominance.

"Who would've thought that my son, managed to snag not only a beauty, but a powerful entity as well." Regis said with a smirk and Hera nodded.

'Knocking: Thunderclap and Flash.' Noctis thought as he used knocking and stabbed the Devil Serpent in different areas making it completely paralyzed.

Seeing the paralyzed opponent, Irene, with a simple swing of her hand, obliterated the head of the Devil Serpent, her attack didn't stop there though, her attack continued to hit the wall and the wall crumbled like tofu. Seeing that the Devil Serpent thought of regenerating, she used a fire enchantment and burned the cut off part of the Serpent stopping it from regenerating as it finally died. Irene's arm reverted back into that of a human.

Noctis came by and patted her wife for doing a good job only to be pinched by Irene in the waist.

Noctis looked at the remaining Devil Serpent fought by Toriko and Coco. They fully showed their Gourmet Demons to intimidate the Devil Serpent. He saw them fight the Devil Serpent. Seeing that they have a plan, Noctis didn't intervene but it was different for Komatsu, he saw the two of them getting beaten by the Devil Serpent.

"Mr. Noctis, aren't you going to help them?" Komatsu asked.

"Its their fight, its their prey, its their hunt. Disrupting someone's hunt is disrespectful. Besides, they seem to have a plan already." Noctis said and Komatsu looked at Coco and Toriko with worried eyes.

"Coco, hold him down for me! I'm going to try something!" Toriko said and Coco complied with a nod. He removed his head wear and covered himself with poison as his skin turned purple. Coco kept on annoying the Devil Serpent and took the Devil Serpent's attention away from Toriko.

Toriko on the other hand is storing energy in his right arm and his muscles continued bulging and enlarging.

Sensing the threat, the Devil Serpent switched its attack to Toriko and Coco reacted only to fall to the Devil Serpent's trap and was caught by its arm tightly. The Devil Serpent's hair then turned into injections and stabbed through Coco's body. It then injected poison through the injections and the poison started circulating inside Coco's body causing veins to pop out from Coco's head as he stopped the flow of venom to enter his brain.

Coco's body started working as his cells started decoding the structure of the poison. It took him a minute and a half of intense pain before his cells made antibodies and made a new type of poison. Not only is he immune from its poison, he returned the new type of poison to the Devil Serpent and the poison quickly acted making the Devil Serpent paralyzed.

"Toriko, I'm done. Do your worst." Coco said and Toriko nodded. His arms were bulging and contracting at the same time as he dashed forward to the paralyzed Devil Serpent.

"Go-Ren Kugi Punch!" His fist hit the Devil Serpent and was blasted five times before being defeated. Coco who was weak from the poison suddenly fell from the grasp of the Devil Serpent. Komatsu ran with all his mightt and used his back as a cushion for the falling Coco.

"Nice save, Komatsu!" Toriko said with a thumbs up. Tina still had a surprised face as she can't believe the fight that just happened in front of her eyes.

"Well. Let's take a break. Toriko, is the salty smell stronger or not?" Noctis asked.

"Its certainly close." Toriko said while sniffing.

"Its the fourth hole." Coco said weakly.

"Toriko, carry your friend, I think its better to cook this guys up away from danger. Its scent would surely attract more of these serpents." Noctis said and he nodded as he put Coco's arms around his neck before carrying him.

"Let's go." Noctis said as he put the Devil Serpent's corpse under his storage ring. Toriko, Coco, Tina, and Komatsu were surprised about the Devil Serpent's corpse disappearing but didn't ask Noctis about it.

With a clear direction, he lead the way to clear any obstruction that will try to block their path.
