Chapter 852 Evolve Past Your Limits

-----

Ding!

[Lord Magica] has harnessed the power of the [Demonic Energy Crystal Heart] to transform his body, utilizing his Wife and Son as sacrifices!]

[The [Eternal Lord of Hell] has granted him the privilege of carrying his [Demonic Curse]!]

[His body has undergone a complete transformation, becoming a [Abhorrent Lesser Demon Of Selfishness: Magicus: Lv270]!]

[The [Abhorrent Lesser Demon Of Selfishness: Magicus: Lv270] very presence exudes an endless wave of Infernal Demonic Energy, decreasing the Stats of all foes by -30% and draining 0.1% of their HP and MP every second.]

[This Infernal Demonic Energy creates the [Terrain of Demonic Inferno], burning anything it comes into contact that is not a Demon and decreasing their Stats by -20%, while being in this Terrain, any Demon gains a boost of +200% to All Stats.]

[Warning! Your Terrain Domain is being slowly consumed by the [Terrain of Demonic Inferno]! As your Terrain and Demon decrease in size, so does your Stat Bonuses and Regeneration Bonuses.]

"W-What is this powerful presence?!" Heshmerie stepped back, gasping for air.

"T-That's uncle?!" Joustin panicked, his glasses have gained a few cracks due to the pressure of the demonic aura.

"He had this power...?"

"Ugh, my head..."

Emerette and Juliette were getting tired, because of how perceptive they seemed to be, the girls felt especially exhausted by the demon's pressure.

"This can't be... A man of noble birth such as you, stepping so low as to become a monstrous demon?!" Patricia gasped. "T-This..." She could barely process everything.

"Stay behind me, kids!" David said. "I'll make sure to protect you while Planta and the rest take care of Lord Magica. Sadly, we can no longer detain him, he has become a monster that must be put down no matter what! Not only it seems he killed his wife and son, which is a crime worth execution, but he has used them as sacrifices for whatever he has become... Noble or not, his sins cannot be forgiven!"

His shining sword and his shield emanated auras of light, creating a barrier that protected him and his students from the strong pressure.

"It looks like there was really a terrible threat in this damn town... Granny was right."

"You should have never doubted the words of your grandma."

Nieve and Johanna were right by their side, their Auras barely able to resist the pressure, which even after having disappeared almost completely, lingered in the air.

The Nature Domain I had created slowly started dying, the Demonic Energy was deadlier than Miasma and Nether, consuming everything and absorbing their power to grow stronger.

It was already getting very hard to maintain my Domain, no matter how many times I activated it! My Terrain and Domain were constantly clashing against a Demonic Flames Inferno, a Terrain of his own.n/(O/-V--e)/l(.b()1--n

I can't imagine normal players fighting against foes that abuse Domains or Terrains without a Farmer or a Druid on the team, it would be suicide!

This guy was Level 270, and with all the buffs, he was on par if not slightly stronger than the Hidden Bosses we've fought so far.

The Failed Copy of the Origin of Darkness was weakened due to being a test subject, the Demon Gate Chimera was only designated to summon things, not to properly fight.

The cultist we confronted at the beginning could transform and was extremely versatile, but he only possessed Miasma and Nether too.

But this was a man that had harnessed Demonic Power itself.

"We are one now... Hahah... Such a perfect form! Do you think the same, foolish ones?" He asked with a mad smile.

"Are you done rambling about your madness?" I asked, the shield slowly dissipated into ashes as my Gaia's All Purpose Creation Tool slowly transformed into a giant metallic club, with the head of a lion at the end. "Because it's time for you to learn the consequences of your actions."

"Hahahaha! You're so funny... Just sit down and admire the power I have acquired! After many months of research...!" He continued laughing. "This is the result of perfection! I have channeled the power of the Great Demons of Hell and the Demon Kings and have become a Divine Being!"

"You're nothing but a bad replica." Rita said. "True Demons are at least ten times as terrifying as you!"

"You look lame as fuck! And those wings look terrible!" Jenny said. "You're just a poser."

"Divine Being? More like Demonic, didn't you heard what you just said?" Mark sighed. "You used Demons... So you're a Demon, not divine."

"SHUT UP!!!"

Magicus, his new name granted by who I assume must be some of the Demon Lords within the depths of Hell, roared in utter fury.

He pointed his right hand at us and harnessed crimson red and black demonic energy, firing a red beam of tremendous power.

"Die, you cockroaches!"

TRUUUMMM...!!

The beam moved at almost lightning speed, about to land on Mark in a split of a second! However, I swiftly imbued Mana into my Gaia's-All-Purpose Creation Tool and smashed the Demonic Beam with the power of the Nemean Lion and hundreds of Lesser Holy Light Spirits fused into it.

"[Holy Light Spirit Smite]!"

BOOOOOMMMM!!!

An explosion of holy light and demonic energy erupted, blowing away the entire house's ceiling, the explosion was so huge it made the entire noble district tremble!

However, although slightly burnt, the weapon was fine, and the beam was successfully sent back into the skies.

"What?!" Magicus muttered, looking at me in disbelief.

A pair of angelic wings emerged from my back, as I smiled back at him, at the same time as a halo glowed with divine light atop my head.

"Turns out you're not the only one who has evolved past their limits..."

"T-This...! An Angelic Halo?!"

Magicus almost vomited blood on disbelief, only for his face to quickly twist into a furious smile, his eyes glowing with crimson red!

"I knew it... You're not normal either, aren't you?" He laughed. "Good! I did hear somewhere that killing Angels is how Demons can become stronger... I thank you for being the one that'll allow me to ascend further!"

While moving his wings rapidly, Magicus descended towards me at an incredible speed.

FLAAASH!
