Poisoning The Ice And Facing The Wrath Of Fire

"Round 2!" they started the next round but something was different about this one and the both of them were suspecting ya knight over there to be responsible for it.

Well, nothing changed for Aster but for everyone else, they weren't brought the same vodka? They were brought something 3 times stronger and the liquid was slightly carbonated as if something else was added to it?

Taking his first shot Asmodeus could feel the inside of his mouth burning hot and his body reacting to the alcohol as if it was a burning poison directly made to fight against ice elementals, which caused frost to slowly coating his skin which was his immune system tying protecting Asmodeus from whatever this was?

Not knowing what the hell that was and panicking as he felt his body start to swell up in painfully burning heat, he clenched his fist and closed his eyes, biting down and using a unique technique to make it go away.

[Greater Soul Heal] with cryofrost breath and a white mist coming out from his mouth, ice suddenly started forming in his empty arm sleeve, and a sudden surge of cold air swept the room turning it from a hot summer atmosphere into a cold artic temperature, which affected everyone, but one person seeing as his body adapted and shifted its temperature to keep warm.

Aster for the win, he couldn't tell the difference~

"It's so cold, brrr" many commented and looked around as the atmosphere not just inside the tavern turned cold but the entire town felt a sudden arctic breeze.

Ice shards fell from their vacant sleeve of Asmodeus and as shards fell to the ground they instantly sizzle and evaporated and after a whole minute and everyone in there almost freezing, warm heat started to come back, and when it did Asmodeus lifted his hand and took a deep breath.

Lifting his other hand, he looks at the both of them and his other arm had regrown, and whatever the hell that was affecting him had faded.

Looking to his left he looked to sir Edward who glanced at him with a smug expression as he downed his 15th shot of that bubbly liquor poison.

But as sir Edward was glancing at him, something was different about Asmodeus...

Asmodeus was completely sober now. . .

And as their eyes met the white faded from Asmodeus's eyes and the blue in his eyes started glowing an icy cold blue, his skin started turning lighter and to the point where it was like snow and Asmodeus's eyes started widening as he began tilting his head and looking more intensely at the knight who might have purposefully poisoned him.

With a deep exhale, white cryomist followed his breath and the air around them had started turning colder. Everyone else in the room started noticing it and even Aster felt something was wrong, so looking over to Asmodeus, Asmodeus's sanity was taking a big fucking hit and fluctuating.

Aster vanished from his seat, appearing behind the knight, his eyes like Asmodeus, changed into something more sinister and demonic, nightmare as the races would call it, and looking to the man with the inns of his eyes glowing a bloody violent red.

"Did you... Poison me?"

"W-W-What?" sir Edward chocked on his own words.

"I won't ask again... Human... Did you try posinening me?"

His voice sounded colder than ice, and as the man was looking at him he looked around to the others, and then to Aster, who made him flinch as those eyes were equally as terrifying to him, meanwhile all of Asmodeus terrified him.

And it wasn't because of just plain looks.

When looking into the nightmare eyes of some demons, especially those of wicked origins or relations, they see something which only they can describe and it's not pretty.

And looking at Aster which he saw nothing but a slow painful death at the Demon's hands, he looked at the people around him and he opened his mouth trying to scream for help but it felt as if something invisible was holding his mouth shut and keeping every and all words from escaping.

Aster stood up straight and looking at everyone, he snapped his fingers and everyone continued with what they were doing like the 3 of them were never there.

Going back to sir Edward, this time Aster spoke, he was hammered beyond compare but feeling the pure murderous intent of his kin made him lustful for his demonic nature and aiding in helping his kin.

Moving his hand down to sir Edward's hand, the invisible hand that Edward felt disappeared, and thus Aster asked.

"Did you poison my father, yes or no..."

But before Edward could give a response, Aster grabbed their head of Edward and pulled it back, he followingly grabbed Edward's hand and slammed it down on the armrest, then he proceeded to grab the edge of the man's fingernails and with his own nails slightly transform into short claws, he started pulling and Edward screamed, he then grabbed when he could finally get a grip and then and he started pulling slowly as his claws turned back into normal nails.

Doing this for a whole minute, Asmodeus watched with unstable fluctuations as Aster forced Edward's head back and pulled on his nail, tearing and slowly ripping it out as he struggled and fought to get free with no one in the room helping or even looking at them and him not being able to make Aster budge a muscle.

Tearing the whole nail out, tears were rolling down the knight's face and as he was gasping for air like his chest was caving in, Aster moved above his face and said as they could see each other.

"Now did you poison my father? Yes or no? You still have 9 more fingernails left and I have plenty of time on my hands, so tell the truth"

Crying "I didn't...'

But as he said that, Aster frowned and clicked his tongue.

Letting go of the knight he sat up in a rush but as he was about to shoot up from the chair, a pair of hands came around from behind his head, and grabbing onto the sides, *snap* Aster twisted and turned and in an instant he snapped the knight's neck.

"I hate humans"

"But I hate liers who hurt my family even more"

Turning back to Asmodeus who looked like he was freaking out as his skin was snow white and if not for his strong transformation abilities, Aster was pretty sure he'd be going back into a full Demon form right now.

"I killed him"

Looking to the corpse and then over Aster he took a breath and Aster approached him, "Nows not the time for a meltdown, let's go enjoy the festival" looking at Aster and not uttering a word, he nodded and with Aster's help, they left the tavern and followed some group into the main festival area which brought Asmodeus back to his senses but exhausted the other one.

. . . . .

Meanwhile, back at the tavern, there was still that corpse of the fallen knight laying on that chair from the competition, and as it was just sitting in there doing its own thing and nobody paying attention to it, a lady dressed in white walked in and over to the corps of the fallen knight.

Standing over there with the fallen knight, she detected a critical amount of demonic energies in almost an instant.

"This has to be him, there's no doubt about it"

Turning back around, she looked over to the entrance of the tavern where she saw seven men and women cloaked and brown, standing there outside the doors.

"Everyone scatter and Surround! This is a level blue King! Chase, Miguel, Logan, and Paula, report to the higher-ups! Everyone else do not act alone until I return! And call for backup!"

"YES COMMANDER MAZE!!!"

The seven of them yelled out spreading what seem to be pure white feathery wings from their backs and leaping into the air scattering and doing as told from their commander.

Running outside and having herself a pair of wings sprouting from her back, she leaped into the air just like the others and flyingly dashed out of there.

"The celestial lord is going to wanna hear about this asap"
