Chapter 187: Chapter 187 Demonic Might(2)
As the three enraged flew towards Colin as fast as they could, but he just looked at them with a smile. When they got close enough to attack, he suddenly kicked off the ground and flew past them, disappearing from their sights. He appeared behind Castiel and stabbed his arm cleanly through Castiel's stomach before kicking both Synthia and Sera in the back, sending them flying towards the ground. Castiel coughed up blood as he lost more than half his remaining LP, but Colin was far from finished. He grabbed one of Castiel's wings and slowly pulled it out from his back, causing him to emit a loud scream. Removing the wing completely, Colin allowed it to fall to the ground before starting to remove the other wing.
The two girls got up off the ground and looked up as they could hear Castiel's blood curdling scream. The two of them flew towards Castiel to try and save him, but Colin kicked him towards Synthia, completely removing his other wing and causing both of them to crash into the ground. In a burst of speed, Colin flew towards Sera and punched her hard in the face, causing her to fly to the other side of the city and he quickly followed after. As Sera spun through the air disoriented, Colin grabbed her leg with his tail and swung her towards him before releasing a barrage of punches onto her body. The punches were so powerful that her body soon became bloody and her bones felt like they were turned to powder.
"Ughhh, that bastard." Synthia said through gritted teeth as she held her head.
"Castiel, are you alright?" She asked
"I'll....b-be...fine." He said with a strained voice, he was in an unreal amount of pain as there was a hole where his stomach should be and both his wings were plucked from his back. His LP was less than a quarter and his HP was running low as well.
"I'll go get Sera, then I'll come back alright. Just try to heal for now." She said before flying after Colin.
When she arrived, she saw Sera being held upside down by Colin's tail, her entire body mangled and bloody but she was still alive and barely conscious. Colin dropped her and Synthia tried to catch her, but Colin flew infront of her. She swung her sword at him, but he effortlessly grabbed her sword as black smoke rose from his hand, and tanked it from her grasp before throwing it into the distance. Synthia's fist ignited with Heavenly flames and she started punching at Colin, but he simply dodged. She tried flying past Colin but he always stopped her and she had no choice but to tearfully watch her friend fall to the ground.
"YOU MONSTER!!!" Synthia shouted and sent another flaming punch towards Colin's head, but this time, he opened his mouth wide and bit off her hand, causing her to scream in pain. Black smoke rose from Colin's mouth as the heavenly flames burned him, but he chewed her hand nonetheless before spitting it out with a disgusted expression on his face. He punched Synthia to the ground, causing her to crash close to Sera.
[Synthia, we need to run.] Sera said to her through [Telepathy] as Synthia tried to get up and fight again.
[What, we have to avenge Mr. Ziek. Look what he did to him.] Synthia said tearfully
[We can't win and Mr. Ziek is still alive but non of us won't be for much longer if we stay here.] Sera said
[But how can we even do that, he is faster and stronger than us, even if we run he'll just catch up with us.] Synthia said
[I have an idea, tell Castiel to grab Mr. Ziek now.] Sera said and Synthia relayed the message through [Telepathy]. Immediately after, Castiel started to painfully crawl towards Mr. Zieks unconcious and half dead body. Colin watched all of this but didn't do anything.
[He's there.] Synthia informed Sera
[Good, on my signal. The two of us will fly towards the two of them, grab them and make a desperate dash towards the mansion.] Sera said and Synthia agreed, they believed that the newly repaired barrier should be able to keep Colin at bay for a few minutes atleast and maybe, just maybe the transformation would wear off. If that doesn't happen, then they would be forced to use their [Return Cards] to go back to heaven. Sera slowly rose to her feet and pointed her finger at Colin which drew an amused smile from him.
[NOW.] Sera said before she changed where her finger was pointed to the hospital, which had remained undamaged throughout the fight. A jet of water was fired in it's direction and Colin quickly dived in the way to intercept it while Synthia and Sera flew towards Castiel and Mr. Ziek. They quickly grabbed the two of them and flew back towards City B, with the aid of their various affinities to increase their speed.
"Leaving so soon, why don't I give you a ride?" They heard Colin's sinister voice behind them and the next second, they felt an intense heat from behind them. Castiel, Synthia and Sera created the most powerful barrier they could with the small amount of HP they had remaining, but that wasn't enough. The giant fireball dragged them through the forest as they could feel the extreme heat burning their skin, burning it black. Just as Colin promised, the fireball soon arrived in City B and soon after the mansion. They crashed through the Holy barrier and into the mansion wall before falling to the ground while the holy barrier fought against the fireball and won, but it was scared with a web of cracks. Everyone in the mansion was attracted by the spectacle and the seven saints quickly took the unconscious Angels to the core room.
********************************************
Back in City A, Colin flew towards the hospital, to the top floor where Lily and Alice were hiding using Lily's [Illusory Shroud] ability, but Colin could still hear their accelerated heartbeats and easily found them. The two girls looked at him with fear in their eyes as they sat in a corner of the hospital with Lily wrapping her hands around Alice to protect her. Colin, uncaring of their fear, walked towards them and wrapped his wings around them before going to sleep.
