NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1510: Weaklings
-----
"Damned child! Do you truly believe you can stand a chance against me, Balhard, the Crimson Hammer?!"
Balhard clashed against Chris, hitting his body with several punches made out of his blazing aura's fists, followed by a blazing hammer strike in the left shoulder, which Chris managed to intercept with his axe and his spiritual aura, using the momentum to strike him back.
"You even got a title? You sure love roleplaying as a demon, damned merfolk!"
Chris proceeded to kick Balhard's face, punching his chest and then covering his body with sharp and deep wounds using his blazing axe, Balhard screamed in pain and bled, while fighting back with his hammer and blazing fists.
"Tch! So you know! Well, it does not matter, you're dead!!!"
"{Spectral Demonic Flame Domain: One Thousand Wailing Specter Hands}!"
Balhard grew desperate, his Aura erupting and spreading even further, everywhere, turning into thousands of phantasmal demonic hands, forming a domain to trap Chris.
Chris was grabbed by thousands of hands, as they pushed him down into a sea of soul-burning flames, Balhard laughed, his hammer growing larger as he infused it with demonic power, rushing down to strike the young human and end him.
"Hahaha! What's this?! Already hopeless?! You humans are truly pathetic! Now perish and-"
"You betrayed your own people; you sold your own land and turned it into this... You think your cheap trick is going to do anything to me?"
"Huh?!"
RUMBLE!
Balhard's eyes widened, as Chris aura exploded, his entire domain suddenly collapsed, shattering into pieces, as bright red and orange flames burned his entire body, turning into thousands of little foxes.
"W-WHAAAAT?! AAAAAAGGGH!"
The Demon agonized, screaming in horror as his body was burning even more painfully than before! The pain was so strong it paralyzed his very soul, as the foxes fused into chains around his body.
"N-NO...! WAIT! WAIT, WAIT! WAIT A SECOND!"
"I won't have any mercy against bastards like you!"
Chris had no mercy, rushing forward and swinging his axe, cleaving through Balhard's entire body and dividing him into two halves, burning both of them at the same time!
"AAAAIIIEEEEEHHHHH!"
CLAAASH!
While agonizing in horror, the first of the three Merfolk Princes that turned this land into this accursed place perished.
Meanwhile, the other two were also confronting Blake's allies, the dark green scaled one faced against Elfriedden in an epic clash between frost and deadly all-devouring acid.
"Hahahaha! Is this all you can do, stupid elf?! My acid can melt everything! Ice?! You sure you think ice can do it?! I am not referred as Balhurd, the Acid Blade for nothing!"
Balhurd's powers were strange, his Demonic Aura took the shape of a slime-like green acid that coated his long sword. Whenever he swung his sword, a wave of this acidic aura would be released, melting and devouring anything it touched, making direct contact with him extremely dangerous.
"Hmph, certainly, your powers are rather unique."
Elfriedden smiled lightly as he saw the acid rapidly melting through his ice, avoiding several sword slashes that released waves of acidic demonic aura, constantly chasing him around.
"Will you keep running away forever?! Is this how the allies of the Summoner are?! A bunch of cowards?!"
"Coward?"
Elfriedden stopped moving for a moment, as ice suddenly covered his entire body, fusing with his spirits that turned into their weaponized and armor forms, and forming a sharp, icy armor made of divine spirit ice crystals, shaped like a dragon knight.
Holding his frozen spear, which was his needle spirit that had transformed into its weaponized form, becoming incredibly sharp and powerful, her glared at the demon with anger.
"I was trying to take it easy, Blake is still preparing his formation, and I would have liked seeing you dying alongside your entire army... but I guess I should just get over with it instead, right? Trying to save energy to go against Lucifer shouldn't be a priority right now."
"To go against Lucifer?! You're delusional! What makes you think that you could ever defeat our great king?!"
Balhurd laughed, reaching Elfriedden and unleashing a barrage of hundreds of sword attacks, turning it into a storm of acidic demonic aura waves, engulfing Elfriedden completely.
SPLAAASH!
The power of the acid, concentrated through several attacks alone, easily started melting his ice armor, as Balhurd laughed, expecting to see Elfriedden agonizing while melting away.
And yet...
FLASH!
A wave of frost was released, as the acid suddenly froze solid.
"...Huh?!"
Balhurd could hardly believe what he saw, as his green acidic aura, a miasma-like energy... was frozen solid!
"My Frost has evolved to the point it can even freeze Aura and Energies, your Acid is of no problem to me," Elfriedden said.
"W-WHAT?!" Balhurd screamed, as he gritted his sharp teeth. "DON'T MESS WITH MEEEE!"
His Aura erupted, resembling a gigantic slime-like monster, as hundreds of tentacles rushed towards Elfriedden.
The calm Elf Prince closed his eyes as he moved almost by instinct, rushing forward, his very presence freezing the tentacles one by one.
Until his spear reached his foe, piercing their chest and blowing a hole through them.
CLAAASH!
"Ungh?!"
Balhurd glared at Elfriedden in disbelief, his eyes filled with horror as blood constantly fell from his wound, before he began to freeze.
"How is this... possible...?"
His entire body froze solid, before Elfriedden kicked it, shattering it into countless tiny pieces.
"Hmph, not even worth a warmup, what a letdown... and these are the terrifying demon princes that govern the Dark Continent?"
Elfriedden looked into the distance, noticing the last of the Demon Princes fighting desperately against Eric alone.
The brown-scaled monster of over ten meters of height swung a long spear around, thrusting it towards Eric as he tried to cut his distance from him.
He knew that he was an archer, so he aimed to not even let Eric use his spirit bow at all!
"You're an archer, right?! You're not a good matchup against me, hahahaha! Belherd, the Earthen Spear, shall eliminate you before you even touch the Dimensional Gate!"
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
