Chapter 40 40: Darkness Power In Angel?

This morning, Alex had noticed that he felt cool, collected, calm, and... powerful in his demon form. He felt weaker, more uneasy, and more apprehensive in his human form.

'Was it that way with all demons or just me?' he wondered.

"Oh, that explains it." Alex pondered as he discovered the cause. He had to work very hard to maintain his demonic form inside of him.

Alex felt that something was occupying a substantial portion of his attention, even though he was intentionally holding it in during the fight.

"Because of this, my spells were unstable. No, that's likely still due to my utter inexperience. Let's see how I do now that that has been cleared up."

Because of how focused and clear his thoughts were on the fight in front of him, something caught Alex's attention.

Alex was relieved to see Nyssa and Lauryn, two demons and witches, through a window with broken glass covering the sides.

His mind was filled with relief because he was confident that he was safe—or even safer—now.

Alex focused on Linias' penetrating gaze, knowing they would enter the fight when the time was right.

Mercy won't be shown to you, devil; just pass away right now, and let's stop fighting for nothing.

"Let us finish this," Linias said, stealing a glance in the direction of the fight between Danna and Aureal. "It seems my companion is having more difficulty than she should."

"You said that a while ago, didn't you? I am still here. You are unaware of what will occur in this situation." Alex then purposefully became arrogant, "You see, I'm amazing, and that's why I'm still here. Naturally, I'm going to save myself and Aureal, and I'm going to give you the hell right now!"

Alex then swung his palm in an arc forward while exhaling heavily and mouthing the spell, "Fire, burning hell!" As a red and orange fire rose in front of Alex, the air became heated.

Since it was a simple magic and he could now use his mind freely, Alex focused all of his thoughts on casting a fire spell at Linias.

Finally, Alex's presumption proved accurate. A trail of burning debris was left behind as the wave of fire rushed into Linias.

"A simple spell can only gain so much, even if you have control over it. It doesn't do much for me." Linias declared as he chopped through the wave with his axe.

Although only a small portion of Linias' armour and flesh was burned, the spell served the desired effect and did not cause any major or minor injury.

"Just please, die, and go..." As Linias coughed up blood, he was interrupted.

He and Alex gazed at his chest, where an arm had managed to push through the armour as if it were nothing.

Blood and organ fragments coated the arm, and the hand that was attached to it had fingers with a pointed cone shape. Lauryn, whose arm was currently enmeshed in Linias, was standing behind him.

The "Arm of the Wraith." Although it was barely audible, Alex could clearly hear it.

Her voice also had an unusual roughness to it, but it vanished with her subsequent words, "Angel, you have lost. I confess it was a sneak strike. But it was essential."

While Lauryn pulled her arm back through his body, Linias only managed to maintain a shocked expression on his face as he retreated in pain.

Linias' wings appeared when blood gushed from the severe wound. They were immaculate, pure white, and dignified—exactly what Alex expected from any angel.

The wings then caught fire. Soon, the entire body of Linias was submerged.

'So an angel perishes in this manner...' Even though Alex was a ruthless fool, I do have some sympathy for him. No no... 'It's like feeling bad for one of those tyrants that committed mass murder.'

"Shit... Thanks... But how did you know I was intending to divert him for you two? Well, anyway, thanks for your assistance." Alex asked the question and thanked them for their assistance.

"No," she said. Lauryn admitted, "It was Nyssa. She claimed that she could know anything about you based just on your facial expressions. She is really devoted."

"That's... a little spooky, but actually, thank you nonetheless."

What is going on over there? Lauryn questioned Alex while pointing her injured hand in the direction of Danna and Aureal.

"My friend is the person holding the hammer. We are not harming her either. Are there any steps you can take to assist her?" He fretted.

"I wish. She has no visible wounds and is quite healthy, but I cannot see any life in her eyes. She eventually became lost in her battle. Without putting myself in danger, I can't assist her. I-" Then, Alex noticed why Lauryn's eyes had expanded through her glasses.

From Aureal's weapon, darkness sprayed out in her direction. She flinched in pain whenever any darkness that wasn't blocked by her light or blocked by her blade touched her flesh. She possesses a power that devils and angels both loathe.

Alex recalled her explaining that, just as light is poison to devils and darkness is poison to angels, Alex felt it was a blessing that Linias didn't attack him with any light-based techniques.

"I have never heard of an angel who could control darkness in my entire life. This is absurd—impossible." It was Nyssa who gasped as she jumped between Alex and Lauryn. She seemed astonished that an angel could use its opposite.

"It's unlikely you mean..." rebuked Alex. "I've heard her tale; if she wants, she is welcome to share it with you. As a buddy, I won't discuss her past without first getting her permission." Alex was visibly anxious about Aureal as he concentrated on the combating angels.

Yes, this is something I've heard of before. Alex and Lauryn heard a familiar voice: Nyssa. "Yes, I can see what's going on here from a close distance."

"What have you been doing? You took your time."
