Book 4: Chapter 89: Blood Fall

Earth

All around the Earth, demons and humans clash amongst each other, slaughtering the other without reservations. Whether through magic, summoned creatures and objects, their bare claws and fists, or any other method they can find, the smell of blood fills the entire world. Demons emerging from Fractures, breaking past the barriers and into the cities thanks to their Kings Demon Light, more demons flooding the warzones and breaking past the human frontlines, and clashes between Class V demons all over the planet ripping up the terrain around them with abandon.

Screams echo from all corners of the world from both Guardian and demon alike as blood fills the lands. And amidst the chaos, one demon stands tall albeit with some exhaustion showing on his face and posture in the middle of a devastated land whose previous biome is now unidentifiable. Now all that can be seen of the land are random pools of water, scorched earth all around with an occasional black flame still flickering on the ground, random portions of the land seemingly having vanished without a trace, and pools of shadow to accompany the water.

All with blood soaking the ground for as far as the eye can see.This chapter's initial release occurred on the n0vell--Bjjn site.

Meanwhile four of the five Knights of Humanity lie beaten on the ground in various states all over the land, with the fifth having retreated far enough away that all she can do is grimace at the spectacle.

Soon enough, Satans laughter echoes throughout the battle-torn land as the man spreads his arms out with a look of glee on his face and shouts, This war is over!!! Then he lowers his gaze again, narrowing it on the Red Knight of Humanity who is currently lying on the ground with the bones in his shoulders and knees shattered with holes running directly through him. How about I start with the filthy little copycat?

Satan slowly floats downwards to the ground with a trail of black and red flames still fueled by the Demon Light silently flowing behind him while dripping blood. And once he reaches the Red Knight of Humanity, he simply reaches down for the man whose glaring face hasnt been weathered at all despite his injuries and grabs him by the neck, lifting him into the air.

The end is nigh!! Satan declares, his voice containing more than a little glee in it as he and every other demon on both Tartarus and Earth feel the effects of the Demon Light growing significantly if only for this brief period of time while the Demon Moon is at its highest point. Including the comatose girl lying within the Demon Kings Castle.

The Knights of Humanity all show real fear on their faces, with the exception of Blue who lacks the ability to feel most of that emotion beyond a small amount, as they gaze up at the Demon Moon high above, blood raining down all around them. However, Purples eyes begin to shine with a faint purple light, making her widen them before opening her terminal and quickly contacting someone.

Then, just a few minutes later while Satan is still toying with the Red Knight of Humanity, a loud thunderclap echoes in the area, following which a storm of red lightning starts thundering all around them.

Satan raises his head to look at the red lightning before asking the air, You do understand that you stand no chance against me, much less other Class Vs, Monster of Humanity? Why bother with this?

Isaac doesnt answer, the man neither being within the vicinity nor caring about the onis words.

Purple glances back at her terminal and smiles at the words, I will buy the time you requested, but one million credits will be charged to your account after this.

Right when the red lightning begins to strike at Satan in order to distract him, a bright flash of red and black light shines out of the Demon Kings Castle on Tartarus. Out of a single extravagant bedroom.

As the Apex Predator opens her eyes for the first time in over a year.
