Surtr flew as fast as possible across the jungles, moving his wings and letting his Origin Flames boost his speed to his very limits.
Several Demons and Demonic Beasts started chasing him, while many others attempted to stop him the moment they spotted a gigantic blazing dragon rushing their way.
"Out of my WAY!"
With draconic wrath, Surtr enchanted his Divine Sword, Gram, with a combination of his own Blood, Scales, Origin Flames, and a part of Asmodeus' Soul.
FLUOOSH!
The sword suddenly overflowed with golden flames, growing up to ten times its original size, the youthful fire dragon waited no longer as he swung the sword horizontally, slashing through trees and monsters alike.
"[Divine Fire Dragon Soul Blade Arts]: [Infernal Decapitation]!"
SLAAAAASSHH!!
The slash of flames and soul energy sliced through it all, Demons and Demonic Beasts died on the spot, a few of the weakest of them that's it.
However, the vast majority ended with severe burns and wounds, but alive.
They stood back up, roaring, and charged at him, unleashing all sorts of techniques and spells.
"DIE!"
"We won't let you pass!"
"ROOAARR!"
Surtr was quickly engulfed on a swarm of gigantic demons and demonic beasts as he kept advancing, for a second he was completely stopped, their bodies piling up over him.
However…
"[Divine Fire Dragon Soul Blade Arts]: [Blazing Infernal Slash Storm]!"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Surtr released all of his powers as an eruption of countless slashing attacks was released using his almighty divine sword!
BOOOOOMMMM!!!
The slashes emerged out by the thousands at such a speed and power that they generated a huge explosion, blowing away anybody trying to stop him.
"You guys are sure a pain in the ass!"
As he healed all the wounds over his body using his Origin Flames, Surtr kicked the ground and leaped into the skies, only to rapidly descend from above and reach the ground a kilometer from where he was.
BAAAMM!!!
His landing caused ripples on the ground, making the entire surroundings tremble rapidly. He quickly expanded his senses trying to look for the Hell Gate.
However, because there were so many goddamn Demons and Demonic Beasts coming from everywhere all at once, Surtr couldn't discern the origin of the Demonic Energy because it was literally surrounding him from all places.
"To your left, down into the ground!"
To his surprise, Ruby's voice echoed into his mind. Surtr quickly realized that girl was much stronger than he had imagined, to be able to send mental messages from so far away with ease!
"Okay, got it!"
Surtr kicked and slashed away countless foes as he made his way to the left, listening to Ruby's words as she led him where she felt the highest concentration of Demonic Energy with her much higher and sharper senses as a Vampiress.
"Where do you think you're going?!"
"CATCH THE LIZARD!"
"GRAAARRRHH!"
Surtr kept running as he quickly noticed a dozen more Demons appear, riding wolf, lizard, and crab-like Demonic Beasts.
These demons resembled the humanoid form of Marchosias and had multiple arms and fifty-meter-big bodies.
They were one of the most common inhabitants, named Asura for short. And although they were smaller than the Oni, they were much smarter and had high proficiency on weapon techniques.
"Even more of you fuckers?!"
The Asura surrounded him, a trio of Asuras wearing magician clothes and holding many magical artifacts conjured Advanced Demon Magic, while another six of them summoned giant weapons and charged at him.
"[Advanced Demon Magic]: [Divinity-Sealing Chains of Purgatory]!"
The magic quickly materialized into enormous chains made of demonic energy, which Surtr attempted to slash with his sword, managing to barely destroy a few before many wrapped around him!
"AAARRGH! DAMMIT! FUCK OFF!"
Surtr kept releasing explosions of Origin Flames from his body, his scales flying around like meteors, slightly disrupting the Asura, but he had to recognize that they were smart and organized, unlike the other more savage and barbarian Demons.
"Aim at the areas where there are less scales!"
The Asura kept evading his attacks over their rides, pointing their giant blazing spears towards Surtr's armpits and between the thighs, they were aiming to impale him to death in a similar fashion their tribes hunted Demonic Beasts in their home.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
However, they quickly realized the same tactics were not going to work against a Divine Dragon, even less someone like Surtr.
The weapons easily cracked and shattered as they tried to break through his scales forcefully, as Surtr's body suddenly hardened tremendously.
His entire set of scales glowed with a golden metallic glow…
"[Divine Draconic Arts]: [Orichalcum Scales]"
"W-What?!"
The Asura were left speechless before Surtr opened his jaws and released a devastating breath attack, golden Origin Flames burning through them and purifying their demonic energy, which in return hurt them as much as a person having their liquids drained out of their body.
"Gruuaagggh!"
"Uuurrrgh!"
"D-Dammit!"
The warriors ended breaking formation as Surtr grabbed the Demonic Purgatory Chains and started infusing Divinity and Origin Flames into them.
"Stop him, magicians!"
One of the Asura Warriors roared, commanding the magicians to hurry and seal him further…
However!
"Thank you for the chains." Surtr gave them a wicked smile, showing off his sharp teeth before he activated his Unique Skill. "[Heavenly Smith]!"
FLUOOOSH!
The chains wrapped around his body, which now were imbued with his energies, transformed, fusing with his scales, fire, and some of Asmodeus Soul.
"W-What is that?!"
"Could Dragons do this before?!"
"Our ancestors… they said they were easy to hunt!"
A giant chain made of golden flames surged, which Surtr took complete control, it moved rapidly, wrapping around the Asura magicians and dragging them towards him.
"Easy to hunt?!" Surtr roared, his jaws opening. "Not anymore, you bastards!"
Without any mercy, Surtr blasted the magicians into Ashes as he weakened them with his chains and then burned them with as much flames as he could from his dragon breath!
BOOOOOMMMM!!!
A similar fate followed the other Asuras, as they were blown away and chained with his new temporary magical weapon.
"Surtr, right below you!"
Ruby's voice indicated him that he had finally arrived.
And he noticed it right away, there was a giant blazing portal sitting over the ground, where those Asuras had just come out from.
"Now, how the heck do I close this?"
