Chapter 429

"That's quite a punch."

Mikael touched the bruise on his face, but he was surprised to find that a portion of his face aged.

"Huh?"

His skin dried, like a dead leaf. Mikael received a punch from Satan, but it seemed that there was more to that punch.

"Hey, do you have a unique Skill or something? No one told me about this."

Mikael used his Dragon Slayer and the dried skin returned to normal.

"Good thing I have regeneration."

Satan started walking towards him, his size was bigger than earlier.

"You're asking why no one knows my power? It's simple no one is alive to tell the story."

"Fair enough-- ugh!"

Mikael received another hit in the face and rolled across the place, landing on a mangled body.

Just like last time, his face dried up but it returned to normal again thanks to his regeneration.

"Is that it? I thought you will give me a proper fight. I was looking forward to this battle."

Satan appeared before him and raised his arms, smashing Mikael into the ground.

"Oi, oi. Don't be overconfident, a lot of people die because of that attitude."

Mikael grinned, trying to stand. However, his bleeding nose was not convincing.

"Then prove it."

Mikael summoned another blast of lightning and directly hit Satan's abdomen. The Demon Lord stumbled back, but it looked like he was not affected at all.

Instead, his body started gaining size. Now his size was triple his original size when they were at the castle.

He spread his wings, stretching. He spat saliva mixed with black blood, but that was it.

"Not bad, but you know that the more damage I take, the stronger I get."

"Yeah, I can see that."

Mikael stood up and wiped his face. He hit Satan with powerful lightning but the asshole was still alive.

It seemed that Satan's body was indestructible. Or perhaps his breaking point was almost impossible to achieve.

"You have a tough body, and you get stronger every time you receive damage. Let's add the fact that your attack adds a crumbling effect. Am I right?"

"It's an aging effect."

"Oh, you're explaining yourself."

"You're going to die anyway."

"Sheesh~"

Mikael grinned. Indeed, a Demon Lord is a powerful creature. Mikael may look fine but the two hits that he received almost ruined his body, even his organs were screaming in pain.

'His strength is different from Oliver... Aging huh, that's a frightening ability.'

Mikael deduced that his body aged, not just his face. But his whole body.

'A simple attack won't damage me that much unless my physical body became vulnerable to damage.'

He knew that Gods were immortal but he was not sure if they don't age.

"Your attacks make me weak and susceptible to damage."

He mumbled, even now his body was trembling.

"Hoh, I'm impressed that you easily learned that. Perhaps I have to see you in another way. That's right, the more damage you receive, the older you get. Gods are powerful beings, but when they fought me, their traits as a mortal will show. Gods don't age, but I will make them."

Maybe this was the key to why the Gods lost in the battle.

"But as an almighty being, Mikael, now that you know my power and you know that your defeat is imminent, I'll give you a chance to forfeit. Kneel, bow down to me, and acknowledge me as your God, and I will forgive your foolishness. I will give you power, perhaps I can give you Earth if you served me well."

"And become Demon, with ugly horns and black blood? Hell Nah! That's disgusting bruh. If I want to be a Demon, I don't want to serve anyone, I'm a free soul. Besides, who said that I can't win?"

"Then die!"

Satan flew, almost stabbing Mikael. Thankfully, Mikael predicted that and cast his lightning bolt, moving to another place.

However, it was obvious from his expression that he was in pain.

'... Perhaps I have to do it this way.'

Satan followed him and started destroying everything around him. The ground further cracked and the Demons and Hunters were running away from them. Their battle was above any.

Mikael deflected every attack but he understood that it won't take long before he lost.

"Demon Lord of Wrath..."

He recalled.

Then, Mikael swung his weapon and smashed Satan's face. It was a powerful blow and the Demon Lord bled from his nose. However, instead of struggling, he grinned and his attacks started getting faster and stronger.

"Yes, that's right!!! Fight me! Hurt me more!!"

"Damn, are you an M."

Satan's ability made him stronger and bigger in the long run.

Furthermore.

'He's hiding another secret.'

Mikael wanted to end this battle because he knew that it would be dangerous if the battle lasted for a long period. However, he couldn't do it unless he discovered Satan's secret.

'He's a Demon, he can't be trusted. There's more to his power.'

That's why Mikael was trying his best to deflect Satan's attack instead.

'I can attack him, but I can't let him hurt me either. Damn this is a hassle.'

However, despite being disadvantaged, Mikael didn't cower. He was actually having fun, if Satan was grinning then Mikael's had a wider grin on his face.

"Indeed, the best of the best."

"Huh, why are you smiling? Do you think this is fun? Then, I will show you what is fun!"

Satan shot a reverse roundhouse kick, it was unpredictable that even Mikael was surprised. He was hit in the stomach and flew a few meters.

'Ugh... I didn't expect that you knew martial arts... Seriously, what kind of Demon are you?'

He thought, his legs trembling.

" I'm surprised that you can still stand."

"Shi--"

It was fast. Before Mikael could react, realizing that Satan was already behind him, a horrible event happened.

"Ggaaahhhhh!!"

Mikael screamed, and blood rushed out of his missing shoulder.

"Hm, it's quite tasty."

Satan savored the amputated shoulder. He was a carnivorous creature. Crunching the bones, swallowing the flesh like it was a delicacy.
