Chapter 807 Waking Up
The battle escalated insanely fast, and soon enough, nothing remained of David’s army besides himself and the Death Knight.
The demon had also paid the price, losing an arm to the Death Knight’s halberd, but the wound had almost instantly closed. It only slowed down his pace of attack, though.
They kept fighting for two minutes in this fashion until the demonized Alexander managed to get a hold of the Death Knight’s armour and threw him away like a rag doll.
And in a single motion, he spun around toward David and stabbed at his throat with his clawed hand. David had to jump back to avoid the attack, but he knew it wasn’t fast enough.
‘Shit!’ he cursed mentally.
The jump back would keep him from dying instantly, but he knew the wound would still be considerable.
But just as the claw nicked his throat, the forward motion of the demon’s arm stopped.
This allowed David to reach a safe distance, with only a single drop of blood trickling down his neck. He wiped it away and looked at the demon, who was still motionless. 𝘳𝘦.𝒸𝑜𝘮
That’s when he noticed the grin on its lips, accompanied by his one white eye. He recognized this blue iris and knew the battle was over.
*Sigh*
“About time you woke up, you fuckhead,” David said as he dropped on his ass.
“Happy to see you safe and sound, you undead dick,” Alex responded mockingly.
But one element of this battle was still in combat mode.
The Death Knight suddenly lunged at him, swinging his halberd wide, aiming to behead the demon. David didn’t even have time to react; it was already over.
In a singular spin, Alex kicked the halberd upward, sending it off trajectory, before grabbing the back of the undead’s neck and slamming him into the ground, where he dug a few inches into the dirt.
“Mind calling your hound off?” Alex asked, looking at David.
“Sorry. I didn’t think he would keep attacking after I stopped,” David apologized before waving his hand.
The Death Knight disappeared in a puff of purple-black smoke, and Alex straightened up.
He noticed his missing arm and had to look around the battlefield to find the missing appendage. .𝒎
“Wow. You really didn’t go easy, did you? What am I supposed to do with that missing arm now?” Alex asked, walking toward the cut limb.
David looked at him with a wry smile.
“Sorry, I guess? It was better your arm than my life, I figured.”
Alex chuckled as he bent down to grab the limb. It had already grown cold, and dirt covered the exposed flesh and bone.
“Don’t worry about it. I think I can fix it,” Alex replied, looking at the limb and his stump.
“Excuse me, what?” David asked, confused.
But without answering, Alex wiped away the dirt from the exposed wound of his cut arm and tore open the stump with his claws, making burst blood into the dirt.
He growled in pain before jamming the cut piece up to the fresh wound, where the flesh started reacting to his body.
Within seconds, the limb had reattached itself, and Alex was moving it like normal, swinging it around to verify its range of motion.
“There, like new,” he smiled, looking at David.
David keeled over to his left, hurling.
He wasn’t weak-stomached, usually, but seeing Alex rip open his own flesh, the blood spurt, and then the flesh squirm and reattach with squelching noises was just too much, even for him.
His stomach had turned inside out instantly.
Alex laughed at the scene before looking around himself.
“Where are we? I don’t remember much, and I don’t feel like ruffling through those two memories,” Alex asked.
David took a second to wipe away his mouth before looking Alex in the eyes.
“You don’t remember? That angel thing took you here. Geminae, I think it called itself. It claimed it needed my help and then left me alone to deal with your ass.”
Alex nodded. This seemed about right, considering what Geminae had told him.
But that still left him in the dark about their current location.
David could see the question marks in his eyes and sighed.
“Come with me. I’ll explain inside,” he dropped, rising to his feet.
Alex tilted his head, not understanding his words.
‘Inside? But we couldn’t be more outside than this…’
When David walked away, he followed him, expecting to walk to a hidden house or something.
But when a patch of dirt suddenly lifted out of the ground, with a chrome metallic box under it, Alex almost jumped back in surprise.
This made David chuckle before he tapped a code into the elevator’s command panel.
The elevator door opened, and he walked inside, motioning Alex to follow him.
The ride down took a few seconds, and Alex felt the acceleration in his guts, and he quickly did the math.
When the elevator doors opened again, they were in a beautiful office with luxurious decor and furniture. At the end of it were windows, which showed the inside of a large cement structure.
“So this is your shelter you were talking about with Jack, huh? I figured your construction would be more bland, given your personality,” Alex mocked as he walked to the window.
The view from there made him wonder how he thought of this shelter and its plans. It was almost too militaristic for someone like him to think of.
‘Maybe Jack redesigned it? No, that wouldn’t make sense. It was already started…’ Alex thought.
“It’s a replica of a shelter from my timeline. One that the military made in a hurry when the demons started attacking. Although theirs was much smaller. I tweaked the plans a bit since I had more time,” David said, walking up to the window as well.
Alex nodded, looking below. He could easily see thousands of people living here without issue.
“Now, before we continue this conversation, would you mind… not looking like that?” David asked, looking at him from the corner of his eye.
Alex looked at him before looking at himself and saying, “Oh.”
He quickly focused on his body, willing it to return to normal before the horns vanished from his head and his limbs shrank to regular lengths.
“Sorry. I hadn’t realized I was still in my demon form,” Alex said, smiling.
“Yeah… About that… What the fuck, man?” David asked him.
