Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest-Novel

Chapter 886 Chaos In The City

-----

Albert tried his best to stop the titanic demonic arms from destroying everything. He had never fought such a strange and monstrous foe as before. And had no idea why not actual Demons were coming out, but just their endless, gigantic arms instead. One of them swiftly noticed him, opening a crimson eye on the palm of its green-skinned arm.

FLAAASH!

It tried to swipe him down, but Albert swiftly evaded, managing to summon a blade of demonic flames and slicing through the green arm with as much power as he could. An explosion of flames covered it, but it managed to resist being cut, quickly retreating back to the Gate, only for more arms to come out.

"Shit. How many are there?!" Albert complained, evading punches, slashing claws, and grasps that threatened to crush him with a single touch. "Oi, Hellberos, why are there only arms coming out though?! Are all demons like this?"

"No, this is because they cannot get completely out." Hellberos explained into his mind. "Although it is big, that Demon Gate is still not a real one. True Demon Gates open up in the sky and are big enough to be kilometers long. Also, it is necessary some sort of special ritual and a hundred sacrificed souls. It seems this was a Demon Gate forcefully created by corrupting the other ones… With a potent Demonic Energy."

As the Demon explained to Albert, the young man evaded enormous fists with his amazing movements. His hands flickered as golden chains made of light emerged. The manifestation of the chains wrapped around Hellberos made by Elayne, which he knows had trained to manipulate to an extent.

"[Demon-Sealing Chains]!"

The Chains had grown much stronger than their original form. Having fused with Albert's soul and fueled by Hellberos' powers, they became an extension of his very soul, no longer just a powerful Divine Spell conjured thanks to the [Pathway: Divinity] Ability of Elayne.

CRAAASH!

Using the chains like a whip, Albert attacked the demonic arms, constantly pushing them back. Explosions of light and golden flames spread over them, making them agonize and pull back from the gate. At the same time, he employed even more of these chains, wrapping them around some of the arms and then forcefully wrapping them around the Gate, blocking space for the demonic arms to not come out from.

"GRUOOHHH!"

A guttural scream emerged from within the Demon Gate, the scream itself generated a powerful, intimidating shockwave. It threw him off balance, making him vulnerable enough for the arms to pummel him down with dozens of punches.

BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!

"Arrggh!"

CRAAASH!

Albert fell into the broken pavement right next to the indoor park, breaking it and leaving a huge crater. The speed of the impact and the force made it so the stone surrounding him slowly melted into lava, surrounding him. The young man coughed blood, feeling a few of his bones broken.

"Albert!"

Hellberos encompassed his bleeding and dying body, as Albert's entire body slowly regenerated back to full. This was the power of becoming a vessel of a demon, gaining pseudo immortality. And the reason why Albert, despite being a normal human, could take so many beatings.

"It's not like you to be worrying about me, Hellberos."

"I have to! We're on this together, you stupid human!"

While still regenerating his bones, Albert stood back up, glaring into the sky. The enormous hands clashing into the indoor park, making it slowly collapse. He didn't have any time to think, he swiftly went back to the fight, stopping the gigantic arms to so hell-bent into destroying the building as much as he possibly could.

Explosions of light and demonic flames echoed; the arms attacked back fiercer than ever. Albert constantly broke his body only for it to regenerate back up. His chains wrapped around the arms, stopping them, buying enough time for Rose to get things done.

"She only said half a minute, but I don't think I can hold on for more than twenty fucking seconds!" Albert groaned, three gigantic fists punched him from above and from left and right, his entire body trying to fight against the pressure. His bones cracking and regenerating back, a roar of madness echoing from the depths of his soul. His mouth releasing an endless inferno of flames, directed at the arms.

BOOOM!!

However, the flames which could easily burn through most foes did almost nothing to these gigantic arms. "Makes sense, they're demons themselves after all." That was what Albert thought as he was crushed into the ground again. His chains barely protecting him from an onslaught of blows that would have already torn him to shreds.

BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!

"Dammit! Rose, get out of there already!" Albert groaned. "Ah!"

CRAAASH!

In that moment, he suddenly felt an explosion of flames. The entrance of the indoor park and former mall broke open, debris exploding and opening a huge hole, where almost a hundred survivors ran away as far as they could, being led by Elayne, Mark, and Rose.

"T-They're there…! That's a relief- UGH…!"

"ROOOAARR!"

One of the giant demonic arms opened a titanic jaw out of the palm of its hand, rushing towards Albert and biting his torso. The sharp fangs attempted to swiftly pierce his flesh and tear apart his insides. While constantly vomiting blood, his chains constantly burned the monstrous arm's skin and flesh, but it barely did anything.

"[Demonic Fists]!"

With a demonic roar, Albert unleashed all his power at once. His Demonic Aura surging as the image of Hellberos appeared. Made of black and dark red demonic energy, dozens of fists made of his Aura punched the monstrous demonic arm, filling it with deadly holes and freeing him from the terrific grip.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

As Albert managed to free himself, he fell down, splattering blood and guts everywhere. Which slowly began to return to his body, demonic energy recovering his destroyed body. Being a pseudo immortal was a nightmarish power. It made him capable of doing shit like this, but fucking hell, it was painful.

"RAAAH!"

However, he had no time to rest, seven more gigantic arms aimed at him. Each one with eyes and jaws spread over their gigantic bodies.

"Fuck…"

CRAAASH!
