Chapter 41 Thrashing The Demonized Creature

The leader turned hybrid demonic beast lunged forward at Ray and slashed at Ray with its claws.

Following the slash, an eerie crimson aura was also released.

On the other hand,

Ray simply sidestepped and dodged the attack with relative ease, causing the attack to fly towards the thick foliage in the forest.

"Boooom!",

A terrifying explosion occurred as the trees within the foliage were blasted into smithereens. Due to the blast, smoke erupted while dust and debris flew into the air. Causing one's senses to be affected.

Furthermore, the shockwaves that spread due to the blast caused the nearby trees to rustle while the area of effect caused the ground to cave in causing a deep crater to form.

The demonized creature only sneered and threw out a barrage of attacks. Trying to overwhelm Ray by surrounding him with multiple attacks leaving no chance for escape.

However, what happened next caused the demonized creature's eyes to widen while his actions came to a sudden halt due to shock.

This was because Ray did not dodge the attacks as the creature thought he would. Ray simply extended his hand, causing a luminous barrier to form. The barrier also emitted a golden hue similar to the energy that surrounded Ray.

Furthermore, the barrier spread forward and formed a dome around Ray and shrank until it stuck to Ray like a protective layer of armor.

However, the most shocking thing was that, just as the demonic aura hit the protective layer around Ray, the aura vanished. As if it never existed in the first place.

Along with that, there was not even a single scratch on the barrier.

Seeing his attack fail, the demonized creature's eyes lit up with fury as he started attacking more ferociously. He closed upon the distance between him and Ray with a jump.

"Swooosh",

With his speed being at such a level that he appeared as a blur leaving behind a trail of dust. The wind whistled as the man jumped and appeared in front of Ray within a second.

The creature swung forward with its huge claws whose tips glowed a deep crimson as it clawed at Ray. However, even then the man was unable to penetrate the protective golden barrier that covered Ray.

Enraged, the creature repeatedly attacked, not stopping for a moment while Ray floated in the air like a statue. Not even moving a single inch.

"Huff, Huff, Huff",

A few hundred slashes later, the creature backed out and panted for breath. Although, it was a demonized beast that had an unimaginable amount of stamina. There was always a limit and at that moment, the demonized man's limit had been reached.

The demonic aura that coated its claws had also weakened significantly while its physical condition was not good.

Furthermore, the demonized creature also showed signs of bloodlust as it constantly eyed the surviving people in the surroundings.

While the survivors, that were being eyed by the demonized creature felt as if they were pigs waiting for slaughter.

The unease in their hearts grew as the demonized creature continued to eye them and started to lose focus in attacking Ray while its eyes started to turn bloodshot as veins popped on its forehead.

These were all signs of the increasing bloodlust of a demonized creature that would lead the one lost in bloodlust to kill anything that entered its sight.

The demonized creature eyed a guard that was nearest to it.

It licked its lips while the bloodlust became apparent in its eyes as they also turned a deep crimson. On the other hand, the man who was being looked upon as a pig by the demon was one of the weakest guards who had no attack-related skills and was a low-tiered healer.

Therefore, the man was scared stiff by the appearance, bloodlust, and aura emitted from the demonized creature.

The creature lunged forward at the healer while the healer failed to react due to the killing intent released by the creature. Moreover, even if the healer was able to react to it, he would not be able to save himself as the creature was too fast for the healer.

The creature kicked the ground with all its might and leaped up in front of the healer. It then opened its maw in a bid to bite the man's flesh.

Just then,

"Splatt",

Half of the creature's face slid down as a sword beam passed through it. Cutting its flesh and bones as if they were butter.

However, this was not enough for the demonized creature to die.

It stepped back and roared in fury,

"Roooooaaar!!",

While it roared, the flesh on its face began to regenerate at a speed visible to the naked eye. Showing the immense vitality of the demon-possessed.

While the healer, who had just escaped from death's jaws thanks to Ray, fainted on the spot while a nauseating smell spread in the surroundings speaking of the level of fear the healer felt as he lost control of his bladder.

Meanwhile, Ray, who had been defending and taking a passive stance, finally moved.

Ray unsheathed his sword and threw Bernard's fainted body to the side. Then, Ray kicked the air, propelling himself towards the demonized creature.

As Ray kicked the air, a small air bubble formed and exploded due to Ray's immense strength. Furthermore, Ray's speed was even faster than the demon's as Ray appeared in front of it in a blink of an eye.

What continued afterward was another one-sided bullying as Ray bullied the demon while the demon was hit continuously like a punching bag.

"Boom!, Bang!, Booom!, Splatter!, Crack",

A punch to the ribs, an elbow on the jaw, a kick towards the shin while kneed in the stomach. The man for the first time after being turned into a demonized creature felt such pain.

However, its mind was blank from constant attacks that rained down on it. Then, lightning snaked around Ray's body as his figure was covered in golden lightning.

The lightning also reached his sword giving him a majestic appearance. Moreover, the effects of the attacks increased as lightning amplified the damage dealt by the attacks.

While the attacks hit the creature, the power of lightning was especially effective against the demonic aura, causing the demonized creature's body to grow weak.

The creature's body was also numbed due to the special paralysis attribute that the lightning contained.

Then, Ray stopped as he punched the demonized creature's body down the ground fiercely. Causing the creature to plummet from the sky towards the ground.

"Booom!, Thudd!",

The impact and momentum from the punch coupled with gravitational pull caused the man to heavily fall to the ground as a small explosion of dust surrounded the area.

Meanwhile, a crater formed in the ground. The creature's chest caved in while its body was covered in blood. Meanwhile, black blood seeped out of its mouth indicating the number of injuries caused to the creature by Ray.

Furthermore, the injuries did not heal as usual due to the lightning that had suppressed the demonic aura of the creature thus its vitality also decreased significantly.

Meanwhile Ray, upon seeing the creature on the ground descended from the sky like a deity as a golden aura covered his body while lightning snaked around him.

The people watching Ray had the urge to bow down to him as they felt revered by Ray's actions and his show of strength.

Furthermore, even the remaining two invaders did not move as a complicated glint flashed in their eyes.

On the other hand, Ray descended from the sky and looked at the creature who was on its last legs.

Ray then lifted the creature from the ground and moved towards the main tent. The tent still looked like before. As if no battle had happened in its vicinity, clearly a testament to the high-grade materials it was made up of.

p Ray arrived in front of the tent and held the creature with his one hand extended forward. The hand burned with violet flames as the flames spread to the creature's body causing it to burn. Soon the creature was reduced to ashes.

Then, Ray looked right at the tent. His eyes seemed to focus on a spot as he said,

"Help me", and then, Ray collapsed to the ground.
