Onward to Dystoark (Part 2)

I cradle the red dragon on my hands and repaired my Steel Body Armor. For it to be cracked, the Hellkin must be at least C rank.

"Aha. You're pretty strong for a little human." a female voice called out in a sultry voice.

*Clack!* *Clack!*

I hear the sounds of high heels hitting the ground and approaching. For it to break my Earth Shield and damage my Body Armor, it must be strong.

"I could say the same. I am confident in my Earth Magic." I said. Although I used a Tier IV Earth Shield, it shouldn't force me back that much because of me being in S rank.

"Oho? Little boastful, huh? I like that." the female voice said, giggling.

I have a good feeling it's a Demon or a Greater Demon. Maybe a High Demon. It is then I see the glowing eyes.

The glowing eyes advance and stopped, Gris and Noire stepped back as to gauge the intruder before attacking.

*Wrooom...*

The portal behind the glowing eyes disappeared, showing a figure. A fairly curvy figure with purplish red skin and bronze pupils accompanied by black scleras. She is wearing a shiny black tight fitting leather spandex accompanied with stockings and long gloves.

The demon also gives a seductive, yet wicked smile as to wanting to dominate her enemies.

I checked the stats of the demon.

She doesn't have Space Nullification on herself, but it must be the weapon or artifact that made it possible.

The demon stopped advancing and put her hands on her hips. She turns her gaze on me holding the dragon.

"I see you're showing love and care for the little lizard. Even though you met it." the demon mocked the little red dragon.

"He ain't a lizard, he's a dragon." I retorted. I looked at the weapon that is wrapped up beside her right hip.

No...that's not it. What caused my Space Magic to fail?

I shared Gris' vision to see his perspective. There is a lantern emitting a faint purple light on the opposite side of the whip. I checked its stats too.

Damn, no wonder I can't use Space Magic and my Earth Shield broke so easily. Also, I better avoid that chick's Inferno Magic despite my resistance to it as it can damage my soul as well.

I used my Space Magic again to confirm, only for it to fizzle out completely again.

[Notice. Your Space Magic has been nullified due to the artifact. Your magic capabilities are also hindered as well.]

"Yeah, no shit." I thought.

"Aww...trying to escape using Space Magic, little Celestine?" the demon said in a tone to treat me like a child. Although I look like one, but still! "If you swear loyal to me, I promise I'll treat you right."

The demon bends over. She then wagged her tail slowly and swayed her hips as to seduce me. Why is she trying when she looks not that much older than me?

"How about no? Come back after 10 years, then we'll talk, you brat." I said, basically telling her to shoo.

"Brat? Hehehe..." the demon's eyebrow twitched as she giggled. That remark hit a nerve for sure. "You got quite a mouth for a human. And besides..."

The demon began emitting dark aura around her and took out her whip. "It makes me want to dominate you more!" the demon yelled in a twisted smile.

*Swoosh!*

*CRACK!!*

The demon struck the ground with great force, fracturing the ground.

I summoned a Spear of Light from my free hand and threw it at the demon. The demon dodged and retaliated by swinging her whip while spinning.

*Swoosh!*

The whip extended and I summoned my Earth Shield again to block it.

*THWACK!!*

*Crack!*

The whip struck the shield, destroying it completely and then it struck my forearm as well, flinging my arm back.

*Crack!*

[Caution, your Body Armor-Steel is damaged.]

Damn, that artifact is weakening my magic. Time for them to jump in.

"Noire, Earth Wall!" I commanded Noire.

*Grawr!*

Noire snarled and summoned a shiny black wall of stone to block out the demon. I summoned an orb of light to see.

"Gris, charge up your Wind." I said.

*Grrr!*

Gris growled and began to glow green. I put the dragon in my shirt so that I can use both of my hands to summon Fire Magic and Holy Magic.

"Come on, cutie. If you can just surrender to me, I'll be gentle!" the demon said and began to swing her whip at the obsidian wall.

*Crack!*

*Crumble...*

Her whip strikes the obsidian wall and makes it crumble, for each strike. If it was for normal circumstances, that whip wouldn't even scratch the wall since Noire is a Rank U. Hell, she wouldn't last 30 seconds with Gris or Me alone.

I would've ordered the two attack the demon, but her Succubus and Inferno Magic can turn the tide against me.

Although Hellkins are weak to Light, but Holy damages the soul to them. And I plan to finish it quick.

*Bwooooo!*

The wind began to howl despite the close proximity and the wind fueled my Fire Magic to a point it turned yellow and then green.

*CRASH!*

The obsidian wall began to crumble from the repeated whip strikes, but my preparation is ready.

"Ahaha, got a surprise for me, little human?" the demon said playfully.

"Now!" I yelled.

The obsidian wall crumbled entirely by Noire's command and the demon sees me and Gris ready to attack.

The demon's eyes widened as her instincts tell her that she'll take damage from this. She takes her whip back, but...

"Too late!" I yelled and Gris began his first assault.

*AWOOOO!!*

*BWOOOSH!!*

*Thwack!*

The demon managed to hit me in the left eye, crushing it. Usually, I'd be screaming in pain, but my spell would've been interrupted if it wasn't for Pain Nullification.

[Warning. Your left eye has been destroyed.]

[Damage detected. Now regenerating...]

Gris howled and unleashed hurricane-force wind tornado at the demon, pushing her back slowly and blowing her whip back.

"Grrk! Stupid mutt!" the demon grunted. But what she didn't know that the Wind Magic used to restrict her movements.

"You're mine! Shinku...!" I yelled, turning my green flame into blue, making it more powerful in my two hands. One the classic moves that goes quarter circle forward two times and punch.

"HADOUKEN!"

*BWOOOM!!*

I fired my blazing blue fire ball at the demon. The cyclonic winds Gris used soon fueled my fireball and grew larger in size and increasing speed.

Large enough to engulf that demon whole.

"Shadow Barrier!" the demon yelled and erected a barrier of darkness out of desperation.

*ROOOAAAAHHH!!*

The burning flames roared and soon engulfed her whole including the barrier.

"KYAAAAAAH!!" the demon screamed as the blue flame takes her outside of the cave and to an nearby wall of rock.

My eye quickly regenerated back to normal and watched as the fireball slams her into the wall.

*FWO-BOOOOOOMM!!!*

The blue fireball exploded on impact on the wall, scattering rubble and scorching vegetation in its wake.

"Don't let her recover!" I yelled as I grabbed a ball of light which was Holy Magic and turned it into a spear. Gris, Noire, and I dashed towards the explosion to make sure to finish her off for good.

We dashed out of the cave and I jumped up into the with my Holy Magic spear.

"Double Tap!" I yelled.

"Black Flare!" the demon yelled as well.

A black and red flames shot through the blue flames as well as I threw my spear of Holy Magic. The Inferno Magic projectile rushed at me and I have no time to use Wind to dodge and I can't afford to have the red dragon slip out and get hit by it too.

I swing my left arm at the projectile.

*Bwoosh!*

As the Inferno Magic explodes on my hand on impact, excruciating pain ensued on my left hand.

"Aaaarrgh!!"
