A man was standing in the back, dressed in all black. A sharp sword was placed on his back, inside a sheath.
He happened to be the one Elisi addressed as Tei, and he was known as the Sword Master of the Red Eagles.
Tei didn't have any elemental ability, but he did awaken a physical ability that gave him mastery over the sword. It was said that he was able to cut the enemies in the blink of an eye with his sword into a thousand tiny pieces.
Tei nodded his head as he proceeded towards Elisi.
"You annoying Demon, You troubled me so much. You killed so many of our people. Did you really think that you'll be able to get out alive? We're the Red Eagles. Even without the Guild Master in the city, we aren't weak enough for you to roam around so wildly."
Elisi was mocking Lucifer, who laid on the ground, unmoving.
"A kid like you can't even dream of comparing to us. Even if you have a few good skills, you'll always remain an ant. And an ant like you dared to hurt my son? You'll always stay a pathetic being that deserves to be killed off," Elisi said. "You should thank me instead for ending your pitiful existence."
She raised her feet and placed them on Lucifer's chest.
She got no reaction from Lucifer. In her mind, Lucifer was already dead. He had his eyes closed; his breathing was weak. Even his healing was almost non-existent, working exceptionally slowly.
"Sigh, I don't even want to think of the bastards that gave birth to a monster like you. Your father must be a monster himself who probably committed thousands of sins."
"As for your mother, she should be the one who slept with thousands of men, one of whom was that monster who was your father, right? Even she abandoned you, didn't she? That's why you're alone, right?"
"You pathetic person. You and your whole family should be dead," She continued as she looked at Lucifer's burnt face, not realizing that she just made the worst mistake of her life.
She touched the reverse scale of someone she shouldn't have messed with. In her anger and embarrassment from Lucifer's previous mocking, she didn't care about minding her words
Lucifer's eyes abruptly opened like a demon had just woken up from his deep slumber. He could bear anything, but an insult to his parents was akin to the biggest sin in his mind that was worse than death.
Lucifer's fist opened as the piece of glass that he had saved throughout the fight finally fell down from his hand.
He only had one hand, and that was used to hold the piece, but at the moment, his mind was filled with rage. He didn't care or think about anything.
Elisi was taken aback as she saw Lucifer's eyes open suddenly. She tried to step back in a hurry, but she couldn't. She found her ankles caught by Lucifer.
Even though Lucifer's one hand was destroyed, his other hand was still safe, but his gloves of this hand were destroyed as well.
His bare hands were holding the bare skin of Elisi's ankles.
Nothing was stopping his Power of Decay anymore. The last piece of his mother's memory that he had kept close to him was destroyed as well. The gloves were gone, which made him even sadder.
He was angry. He wanted to kill without caring for anything. He wanted to go loose and wipe everyone here, no matter how young or old.
This time, he didn't bother controlling his strength. His grip was so strong that Elisi's ankles were crushed instantly.
"Aaa!"
A pained scream filled the surroundings, which was so loud that there was not a single person here that wasn't able to hear it.
Elisi's ankle was crushed to pieces which made her scream, but that was not all. She felt like her cells were dying as her body started decaying. A terrible pain started spreading all around her body. She felt as if she was slowly dying. And this was a slow death which was worse than death itself. The pain... The extreme pain was unbearable for her.
She wanted to run but she couldn't. Her leg was caught.
"Leave me!"
She realized that it was Lucifer's ability. She didn't know he had powers like this that could be used in this way, but now that she was actually on the receiving side of it, she couldn't help but scream out loud as she asked Lucifer to free her.
Unfortunately, everyone here knew that she was the last person here this kid would probably listen to.
Her body turned pale as she started dying. She knew that if she didn't do something to stop Lucifer, then she would die. She didn't want to die like this.
She couldn't use her ability either. She knew that if she did, then she was going to die even faster.
If she used her energy ball on Lucifer from such close range, then she would die in the resulting blast as well.
"Stop him! Cut his other hands!" she screamed as she looked at Tei.
Even though it seemed like a long time had passed, only a few seconds had passed since Lucifer opened his eyes.
Elisi's hair was already white now, as if she had grown older by fifty years already. She was so slim now that her bones were visible. Wrinkles covered her face, making her seem like a woman in her eighties.
Tei started running towards Lucifer as he pulled his sword out, but Lucifer stood up and flew back with Elisi, being dragged to the ground because he was holding her leg.
Lucifer dodged the sword. He only had one of his hands now, and he couldn't deal with the sword without freeing Elisi. He didn't want to free her either, so he decided to back off a little with her. Her death was more important than anything! This woman dared to use such vulgar words for his parents. She deserved to die.
This tiny bit of time was enough for it, though. Elisi's body was completely destroyed and turned to ashes in front of everyone's eyes.
In less than four seconds after Lucifer touched her, she was dead. Her ashes floated on top of the water that was already red from all the blood that was shed in this battle.
Lucifer's left hand had also started healing now. In fact, his healing seemed better now, which he found strange.
According to his assumption, in a few minutes, his hand was going to be healed completely.
Everyone present there saw human tissues coming out of Lucifer's shoulders, forming his hand again. They couldn't believe their eyes.
"W-What monster are you!" Tei let out as he kept chasing Lucifer with his sword.
"I'm not a monster," Lucifer answered. "I'm a Demon. A demon who is going to kill you all today."
His voice seemed to be coming from the depth of hell itself. He remembered that Elisi called him a demon, and he was embracing that title now. They called him Demon? Fine! He was going to be one.
