Chapter 68. Eerie demon (2)

"The town! We reach it." Kim was panting, his body still in adrenaline.

"Is.. is he still chasing us?"

Daima asks but Kim went silence, he continues walking as he stay silent, Daima could tell from his reaction that the demon is still chasing them.

Upon walking through the town streets, they sees only a few demon roaming around.

"Where are the demon? This town is like a ghost town." Daima said but Kim just looked around for a hospital or a place that could help Yuriel with her injuries.

Like before, Yuriel is always the one protecting him, she is always the one getting hurt. While Kim always get a minor scratch.

As Kim aimlessly wander around, Daima saw a tall structure in the corner right of his eye.

"Kim, let's say we check there first?"

Kim looks at what Daima was talking about.

"It do look like it's being build, I think they're doing a construction. Yea, let's check it out."

—-

"Uma! I think I heard Kim."

Uma Micheal look at Luc Murgwn weirdly, asking him to explain.

"You know the left path we haven't explored or enter? Well I heard two people screaming."

Uma Micheal thinks for a moment as she wrap her finger beneath her chin.

"Wanna check it out?" she said.

Luc Mugen on other circumstances would refuse, but since the voice sounded so similar to Kim, he nods.

"Let's go then," Uma Micheal then looks back at the worker demons.

"Alright guys, I got somewhere to go so while I'm gone, don't slack off!!!"

The demons held in their celebration that's Uma Micheal was finally going to be gone for a while.

"You can trust us, we're going to be on our behavior." one of the demons said joyfully.

Uma Micheal just scoffs and follows Luc Mugen, conveniently both Kim and Uma Micheal passes by a small house blocking theirs way from seeing eachother.

What a weird coincidence, won't fate just allow them to see eachother?

Luc Mugen shows Uma Micheal what he was talking about, he points at the dark left path, inside seem deep less, an never ending path that traps you in.

The eerie demon froze then frowns. He felt a presence which he doesn't like, it irritates him, make him mad, agitate and make him violent against that certain presence.

"What is this feeling? Ahead me is just making me irritated. His mana… I could feel it a little, a feeling of not being add to my collections,"

The frowns then curled up dimly, feeling the presence of another person relaxed him but the irritation of that certain presence is overwhelming.

"Ah~ I feel a new collective item to obtain and for the others… I will torture it, I will break its legs and arms, blind him and make him suffer!"

The eerie demon started moving again with his flingers fluttering, ready to kill and torture the presence that irritates him.

Uma Micheal stares as she stood in front of the darkened pathway.

"Hmm, I don't hear an screaming," she turns to Luc Mugen.

"Are you sure you heard screaming? I don't hear anything."

Luc Mugen nods which make Uma Micheal look at the pathway again.

"Luc not the type of person to lie, did those person perish?" she thought.

She stood there for a few more minutes before Luc Mugen taps her shoulder.

"I think I must be… I don't know." he lowers his head in confusion.

Uma Micheal smiles and pats Luc Mugen's back.

"Nah, it's okay. It must've been the demons or the air in here."

Having said that, a dark figure emerged from the dark path. With no introduction or a process to think, the demon's punch Luc Mugen in the stomach hurlings him back into a house, his body's crash into the wall as it creates smoke around the area.

"I see now, you're presence agates me," he said with a chuckles. Looking at Uma Micheal, he let out an unnatural and impossible wide grin.

"Oh~ hello there little girl-"

A splash of water pressure grazed the demon cheeks as he avoid the girl's attack.

"You freak! How dare you do that to Luc!"

Uma Micheal began mumbling under her breaths about something before forming the waters into a ball. A sprinkle of little lights flash near the ball of water as its float in the air.

This acts of magic surprises the eerie demon.

"Oh an enchanter and a water user. How interesting, I have only ever fought one enchanter user myself and I do say that he was a formidable foes, having beaten me twin times until I managed to win against-"

Not wanting to listens to the demon's nonsense, she threw the ball of water at him. The pressure of the water rip off his left arm.

"Yap, yap, yap I don't care you freak. Listening to you talk is nauseous,"

The demon stares at his deceptive arm for a second before looking at Uma Micheal.

"What, you're going to regenerate now?" she said.

The demon let out a slight moan before chuckling wildly to himself. This freak out the young Uma Micheal as she watches the demon walked to his chop arm.

"Hehe~ this reminds me of the time where I fought that user. When I chop up his head," he picks up his arm and placed it back at his cuts arm.

"You know, I tried to sew his head with another head hoping for it to be stronger but he died and it's make me very sad."

Uma Micheal watches in face of disgust as the demon sew the decapitated arm halfway through the cut before growing out a new arm. Uma Micheal thought that's was the last of it before the demon slice both of the slightly in half, he then mushed it together as he breaks the bones within the arm.

"T-this is disgusting…" Uma Micheal muttered but the demon heard her.

"Disgusting? No, no, this is madness!!!"

An overwhelming madness to mess and play around with his new toy so he could add it to his collection. Having said that, he remembers how Uma Micheal attacks hits him.

He won't let a toy get away without punishment. After his two arms mush into one's, he twist it around, wrapping against his sharp claws as his finger and claws cut deep inside him. Blood flown out, his finger cracks in pieces, his hand's muscle showing.

Uma Michael quench her stomach to not puke at the sight. The demon's arm have been mutated into one, but that wasn't the end of it. He regenerates once more as the two arms squirm and bleed out into one.

"Ahhh~" his eyes rolled up to the tops as he groans out in pain, but it seemed like he enjoyed it.

"That hurts but I enjoyed it~"

He clenches his new arm, with a smile he turns his head toward Uma Michael creepily.

Dashing towards her, he intends to strike her with his claw's. But what could've been a critical injury is block with a clear barrier.

His smile instantly faded away as he felt its presence.

"I won't let you hurt her!" Luc Mugen said as his hold one of his hand on his stomach, bloods dripping down his forehead.

"Tch- the pests is back, I thought I have squashed you. Doesn't matter, I'll just finish the job," As soon as Luc Mugen blinks, the demon disappeared before reappearing in front of him.

"Here, you can have this!!!"

He scratches Luc Mugen's eye, making him back steps backwards and tripping on his shoes. The demon gleefully look at the despair reaction from Luc Mugen.
