Several thousand meters away from Evil City, a group of humans was hiding in a rock formation. They were strong, and their energy pools immense, but there was a powerful force cloaking their presence.
They were a middle-aged man with long dark hair and eyes full of shadows and four youths.
The young ones were all Rank 5 life form at the 1st Engraving Stage, as for the middle-aged man, he was much stronger.
A solemn expression appeared in the five humans as they watched the city covered by that horrible and malignant aura.
"Master Hito, we have been waiting for months. According to our records, Evil never stays put more than a few weeks before leaving with his army for an incursion. Could we have been discovered?" The one who spoke was a young woman with blonde hair and blue eyes. She was gorgeous, and her body released a powerful ice force.
The middle-aged man thought for a moment before shaking his head.
"We have covered our track and made sure none of the demons we questioned could set a message. There must be another reason why Evil has not left."?Hiro could not help but frown as he looked to the city.
Their efforts to obtain any helpful information about it were useless. All the demons they interrogated either did not know anything about Evil City or committed suicide before speaking a word.
"Master Hito, I am sure we can kill that Demon Count very fast if we attack with all of our power, but the more we wait, the greater the chance that something bad happens." A youth with crimson hair said those words, and there was immense killing intent in his eyes.
"Juku, do not let your hatred cloud your judgment. Remember that our mission is not to kill Evil but rescue the members of the Darkness School captured by his demons." Hito gave a stern look to the crimson-haired youth.
The rest of the youths also stared at Juku but remained silent.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey knew his tragic history and that his hate for demons was stronger than anybody here, but that was not all. His talent was also the greatest, and there was a high chance that he could become a Peak Rank 6 life form in the future.
Juku's eyes narrowed when he heard that, but in the end, he nodded.
Only after seeing the crimson-haired youth's response did Hito look away.
"If we fight in the city, the collateral damage could probably end the life of the people captured, and we don't have enough information to enter without being detected."
All of a sudden, shock appeared on Hiro's face as he felt two eyes filled with the most horrible slaughter intent he had ever felt in his life looking at him.
Comparing this intent with Juku's would be like comparing a rock with a mountain.
"RUN!"
Juku and the rest of the youths were shocked by Hiro's words and the dread in his eyes.
Before they could understand what was happening, they heard three sonic booms.
Instead of explosions, those sonic booms seem to have been provoked by steps.
The next instant, they saw a torrent of white lightning cover the distance between Evil City and them in less than a second.
The youths felt death approaching, and there was nothing they could do to stop it. Luckily, a dark-red flash put itself in the white lightning's path.
What happened next was too fast for their eyes. The youths only saw an arm flying away and the white lighting and dark-red flash landing a few hundred meters away from them.
Now that he was not moving, Juku and the other youths could see the true nature of the white lightning.
The white lightning was a humanoid monster with three faces, six arms covered by bones, and a spectral avatar behind him.
The monster's eyes focused on the youths, and an aura full of malice and sinister evilness came crashing down on them like an ocean.
Even though they were Rank 5 life forms, they were too young to face Abyss' concentrated evilness. Terror invaded their hearts and souls.
Juku's breathing became rough, and fear appeared in his face as he stared at the white monster. He saw that three of his arms were full of scars and bruises, and there was a large burning wound on his chest.
However, when he focused on Hiro, the monster's injuries seemed insignificant. The middle-aged man lost his right arm and had a fist-size hole infected by white lightning in his right lung and stomach.
Despite the immense damage, Hiro showed no pain, and his entire focus was on the monster in front of him.
As his breathing quickened, rage appeared in Juku's eyes. He screamed before making his energy explode.
"AHHH!"
Disdain appeared in the monster's eyes as he saw the behavior of the youth. The one that showed distress was Hiro.
"Stupid, don't be so selfish!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was only after hearing those words that Juku was able to analyze the battlefield truly.
Hiro was a Rank 5 life form at the 5th Engraving Stage. Someone capable of causing so much damage so fast was not an entity they could face, especially not with their hearts and mind full of terror.
If he and the others stay, they would be a hindrance instead of help. After all, the middle-aged man already sacrificed a lot to save them, showing how much he cared for the youths, and the white monster would use that to his advantage.
Juku's face filled with pain, sadness, and bitterness as he turned around, secured his comrades into a space ring and flew away with all of his strength.
The white monster saw how the youth escaped. It would only take one full-power strike to kill Juku, but before he could do anything, the middle-aged man's strength rose as he fused with his Law Avatar.
"I am your opponent!" Hito spoke those words as an armor of flaming shadows covered his body.
Giant burning black chains that extended for thousands of meters emerged from his left arm, and all of them had blades on their end.
Coldness appeared in the white monster's eyes, and he directed his horrible aura against the middle-aged man.
Seeing that Hiro's will stood firm, a smile appeared in the white monster before he unleashed his roar.
"Mrawww!" Along with that mighty and terrifying roar, the white monster's aura grew even more sinister.
'How can a Rank 5 Demon Lord own such aura!' Hiro's heart trembled as he faced the malignant essence of a cruel and dark place that existed for billions of years. He was a true warrior seasoned by thousands of battles, so his will resisted, but that did not mean he was fine.
White lightning filled the wounds in his right lung and stomach. It exerted an immense devouring force, and Hito had to direct a significant amount of his energy just to contain it.
The middle-aged man went through the short encounter they had, attempting to understand the monster's abilities.
During their clash, white lightning inundated three of the monster's arms and granted them immense might. One of them channeled the severing force of wind and cut his right arm without resistance, and the other two were incredibly hard and fast, penetrating his body and destroying his organs instantly.
'The energy he infused in his arms was terrifying, but he clearly cannot use it without paying a certain price.' Hira stared at the arms the monster used to inflict the massive wounds on his body and could see how damaged they were.
The middle-aged man's analysis went for less than a second before the white monster flashed toward him.
