Chapter 43: High-Rank Demon

Roy felt pain the moment the whip lashed onto him, showing the demon’s great strength.

The pain made Roy angry. He could feel that the demon in front of him was not simple, but he had to show the temper befitting that of a demon right now.

Therefore, Roy roared, dropped Fat Tiger from his arms, and rushed at the demon. Once Fat Tiger landed on the ground, he barked and followed Roy to attack.

That demon was already standing not far away at the edge of the magic formation. Roy’s charge brought him almost instantly to the other party. He stretched out his claws, grabbed the demon’s neck, and tried to press him down.

However, what he did not expect was for the demon to not dodge and instead hit the corner of Roy’s mouth backhanded. The tremendous force was difficult for Roy to withstand, and he flew straight out. When Fat Tiger rushed out to bite the demon’s leg, he was also sent flying with a kick, causing Fat Tiger to whimper while in the air.

Puh!” Roy stood up from the ground and spat out purplish-red blood. This demon’s punch nearly made all his teeth fall out. Roy knew that he had encountered someone powerful this time.

Is this demon a middle-rank demon? Or the more powerful high-rank demon?

Roy could not be sure, but he could feel the aura from his opponent suppressing him. Under the influence of this aura, Roy felt that nothing in his body was functioning well, and he could not fully exert his strength! This was definitely the suppression that only a demon with a higher rank than him could possess.

After standing up, Roy helped Fat Tiger up. His three heads shrunk at Roy’s feet, seeming to air his grievance to his master.

“Eh?” Seeing this scene, the demon was a little surprised and could not help saying, “I thought you were teleported while battling this hellhound… Seems like that isn’t the case!”

Roy did not answer. He opened his demon wings, flew up, and dived at the demon with the help of gravity.

It was not like he was irrational, rushing to fight against a more powerful opponent. He knew that a demon summoner was definitely not anything good. This time, Roy did not choose well in responding to the summon. He did not want to sign a contract with a demon, so he had to resist and not give the demon time to express his wishes.

There would be no demon contract if the other party could not express his wishes. He could then return to the Abyss with the repulsive force of this world.

And Roy’s current advantage was that he came through the Gate of the Abyss, so the Ouroborus Mark protected his soul from destruction. Even if he were to die fighting the other party, he would wake up in the Abyss.

Demon wings? Does he have the bloodline of a high-rank demon? The demon was a little doubtful after seeing Roy’s wings. He actually saw them when Roy first appeared in the magic formation. But in their collapsed form, he did not see them clearly and thought that Roy was just an ordinary winged demon, only seeing them clearly now that Roy spread them.

Not all high-rank demons had demon wings, but those with demon wings definitely had the bloodline of a high-rank demon. It was a rule of the Abyss. When this demon saw that Roy dared to resist, he wanted to kill him, but he dismissed that idea after seeing Roy’s demon wings.

He sneered and raised the whip in his hand, preparing to bring Roy down from the air.

However, Roy used Bloodlust on himself at that moment. His body glowed with red light, and his strength and speed suddenly increased. Before the whip could reach him, Roy knocked down this demon!

His strength could not knock the demon down before, but he could now. With the enhancements from Bloodlust and the dive attack, this demon could no longer stand steady. When he fell to the ground, two opposing forces collided and even made a big pit in the ground!

At the bottom of the big pit, Roy pressed one hand on this demon’s face, pressed the fingers of his other hand together to make a knife, and pierced straight at the opponent’s heart!

The demon felt the impending danger and reached out to grab Roy’s claws. However, Roy’s steel-like nails still stabbed into his chest, and purplish-red blood instantly splattered out.

After being wounded, the demon under Roy was not angered but smiled instead. He held Roy’s wrist tightly, preventing Roy from stabbing any deeper. “Hahaha! Good job, let me guess. You’re planning to kill me and return to the Abyss, right?”

Roy ignored the demon with a cold expression. Although he could not get his hands out, he still had a tail. The three-edged blade-shaped tail tip closed, raised high up in the air, and went for the demon’s arm.

Right at this moment, the two pupils under the demon’s helmet suddenly lit up!

“Weakness!”

With the demon’s voice, a dim light appeared on Roy. This light disappeared in a flash, as though it melted into his body. The next moment, Roy’s entire body felt as though he had over-exercised, suddenly feeling sore and weak all over. The tip of his tail merely scratched the demon’s skin before it could no longer move forward…

The effect of Bloodlust was still going on, but it seemed as though Roy had lost its enhancements. The demon below him kicked and knocked him over!

The moment he was kicked, Roy’s heart squeezed. This demon was undoubtedly using magic. However, a Weakness spell could actually offset the 40% enhancement of Bloodlust. Just how high was the level of his magic?

Fat Tiger immediately rushed over and guarded Roy when he landed. He gritted his teeth at the demon, all three throats growling with threat.

After standing up, the demon sent his whip flying toward Fat Tiger and Roy!

Although he had just used magic to make Roy lose his combat power in a flash, the holes in his chest created by Roy made him a little afraid. If he had released the magic a little later, his arm would have been pierced by Roy’s tail, and he might not have had the strength to stop Roy’s stab through his chest. Then his entire chest would have had a huge hole…

Damm it, judging from his aura, this demon is obviously merely a low-rank demon, but I almost suffered a huge loss. The demon could not help but be furious as he whipped Roy and Fat Tiger in anger.

Roy still had some strength in his body at the moment, but he knew that he would not be able to win against the opponent as long as his magic continued. Therefore, he could only hug Fat Tiger in his embrace and shield his head with one head. Even though he was being whipped, he did not give the demon any pleasure by letting a single sound out. However, his eyes hidden beneath his arm stared coldly at the demon.

He had to memorize how this demon looked. F*ck. I’ll hunt him down and kill him no matter what in the future!

After lashing out dozens of times in succession, the demon finally stopped. He seemed to perceive Roy’s thoughts and sneered. “Hmph! Do you think you can go back?”

He grabbed the whip and pulled it twice, making it crackle crisply. “Let me tell you, the power of Urgash, the Dragon of Chaos, affects this world, causing the repulsive force of this world to be much weaker for demons from the Abyss! Even if they don’t enter a demon contract, demons will stay in this world for a long time. If you really want to go back, you have to either activate the teleportation formation with your own magic power or be killed!”

What?! Roy was shocked. Seriously?!

Seeing the shook on Roy’s face, the demon laughed with satisfaction. “That’s right. Why else do you think we demons can have a foothold and go on a crusade in this world?”

He walked up to Roy, kicked him over, and stepped on his chest. “You have to stay in this world for at least a year before you can be sent back through this world’s repulsive force, so don’t even think about running away. I have a lot of time to catch you again. At the same time, don’t think about actively seeking death. There’s something here that can completely annihilate the existence of a demon. You’d better behave yourself!”

A demon contract appeared beside Roy suddenly. “However, don’t say that I didn’t take care of you. There are great benefits to staying in this world. Seeing that both of us possess superior lineage as high-rank demons, I’ll give you a chance. Sign this contract and submit to me, Xeron. Fight for me, and this contract will reward you with 10% of the spoils. This is the greatest concession I can give you!”
