Novel Full 715 Everyone Else Is Strong Too
—–
Meanwhile, as Blake and his girls defeated Darkus, other battles were happening at the same time in the other areas of the battlefield. Blake had separated his group of friends into three separate groups to deal with the powerful Demon Lords as soon as possible.
This way, they wouldn’t be able to escape or gang on them together as a group, therefore, maximizing speed and efficiency was necessary for Blake’s plans to come to fruition.
Erdrich led his group with Eric, Alberta, and the Vampire Spirit Hendrick, as they arrived at the west side of the battlefield while opening a bloody path by crushing as many demons as possible. Eric made sure to use his Spirit Magic Arrows to kill as many airborne demons as possible in the way too.
“How dare you humans interrupt our delightful invasion of this pitiful territory?!”
Suddenly, the voice of an angered beast surged from the skies, as a huge gryphon-like demon appeared, with red and purple feathers, and sharp black claws, with a hulking, large body just as big as Darkus.
“Is this the Demon Lord?” Eric wondered. “I can sense a lot of power from him…”
“It most definitely is!” Erdrich smiled, his fists clenching hard with excitement.
“Indeed.” Hendrick nodded. “And it seems to be a rather peculiar one at that. A Gryphon Demon? That’s a rare specimen, a lot of valuable materials can be obtained from it!”
“I-Is that all you think about when you look at that huge monster, Hendrick…?” Alberta was a bit disappointed.
“Hendrick?! That name… That bastardly Plague Doctor that killed millions of Demons using his deadly poisons and toxins?! So you’ve been reincarnated as well!” Said the gryphon. “My name is Gryphinton, I’ll soon become a Demon Duke, and it would be a nice gift to bring your head to my father to attain even more recognition!” Laughed the demon.
“Sorry, your name doesn’t really remind me of anything.” Hendrick smiled, although such a smile couldn’t be seen below his plague doctor mask. “However…” He spread out his arms, as shadows began emerging, countless tiny red eyes opened within, a swarm of insects and spiders.
“I will honor your name by killing you swiftly and making sure to keep your body in a good condition! I wouldn’t really want to waste it by tearing it to shreds, hahaha!” Hendrick laughed.
“Y-You…! How dare you be such a petulant bastard?! MY ARMY… KILL THEM!!!” Gryphinton ordered over a hundred flying demons to descend and attack them all.
“How pathetic, hiding behind your army?” Erdrich sighed.
“I thought he was at least going to confront us.” Eric said in disappointment.
The two boys stepped forward, their powerful magic and spirits combining as one, as Erdrich swung his huge fists into the air, enormous arm-shaped aura strikes hit the demons, tearing them to shreds and making their bodies explode by the impact alone!
TRUUUUUMMM…! TRUUUUUMM…! TRUUUUUUMMM..!
Meanwhile, Eric calmly pointed his arrow at the other part of the flying demon army, firing a single spirit arrow that ended dividing into hundreds, flying across the skies, and piercing the demons’ heads and then exploding, killing most of them with a single hit!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Although Erdrich had only been growing even stronger since the beginning, Eric had become much more calm, composed, and cooler, having already experienced so many battles, his often-timid nature barely resurfaced nowadays, as he seemed like a calculative, smart, and powerful comrade that even the tough Erdrich recognized now.
“Uwaaah! Eric you’re so cool!” Alberta was clearly impressed.
Eric readjusted his glasses in a cool manner, remembering Blake’s words to “act cool” and “composed” for Alberta, that’s usually what girls liked… sometimes.
“UNGH?!” Gryphinton was left flabbergasted. “T-This is… How strong are you humans?! Those pathetic men over there couldn’t even fight my flying army yet you’re massacring them like flies?!”
FLAAASH!
However, before he could say another word, Hendrick reached his back while flying using insect-like wings he sprouted from his back! His huge shadows spread around the demon’s large body, as Gryphinton felt the agony of being bitten by hundreds of insects all at once!
“[Abyssal Swarm]!”
“AAARRGGHHH…! BEGONE!!!”
Gryphinton roared furiously, swinging his huge wings, and unleashing several powerful slicing winds against Hendrick’s swarm, the storm of winds quickly slicing apart hundreds of bugs at once, as a kick quickly reached Hendrick’s chest, pushing him down!
BAAAAAAMMM…!
“Ouch… that one hurt, haha…” Hendrick laughed, slowly standing back up while looking covered on bruises.
“Hmph, weak and pathetic! I guess becoming a pitiful spirit has made you weak…” Laughed Gryphinton. “Now- huh?!”
However, Hendrick’s attack was not for naught, as the Gryphon Demon felt that the area that Hendrick had hurt was covered on deadly wounds and poison, slowly eating away his life and energy…
“T-This is…?! How come a poison of this world can affect me…?!” He groaned, feeling his mind growing slightly foggy… It was even affecting his senses!
“I have crafted a special poison just for high-ranking demons.” Laughed Hendrick. “Don’t worry, it will fade away naturally after a little while, it can’t kill someone as strong as you, but certainly, it can make your job harder…”
“YOU BASTARD!!!” Gryphinton quickly gathered his Demonic Powers, as the skies around him twisted and began to transform into a tornado. “PERISH!!!”
He flew down like a lightning strike, reaching Hendrick and company in just a few seconds!
“[Golem Summoning]! [Infernal Cannon]!!!”
However, a huge cannon made of mighty flames hit Gryphinton as he descended at a fast speed, so strongly that his entire body was thrown away out of the direction he was aiming for!
BOOOOOOOMMM!!!
“URGH…! M-MY FEATHERS…!” He quickly realized his feathers were burning easily… Angrily, he glanced at the origin of the attack, finding the heavy armored Alberta who had summoned a huge cannon with her newly acquired Skills.
Golem Summoning!
It was a Skill that only high ranked Dwarves could attain, and it allowed them to summon the parts of a whole golem of their choice, like an extension of their bodies and magic.
And with Eric and Blake’s help, Alberta had created her strongest golem so far… Its cannon capable of even hurting Demon Lords!
