"Demon Captain! I am sure of it. This sure will become interesting." Joan said as he already knew what his enemy will be.

This enemy was extraordinary, although it was weaker than Demon general, its combat prowess was greater on Demon general. On the contrary, the Demon general relies too much on magic and the Demon captains were combat junkies. They look like ordinary knights but were more powerful overall. They look like a knight but its armour was more sinister. Having spikes on their shoulder pads and have spikes on their helm. The Demon captain that appeared has a flail on his other hand and a round shield that has thorns. Clad in dark steel, making it a frightening foe to behold.

Joan stared at it with utter joy. It has stats that have landed on three hundred on its lowest and its highest were unknown. Making Joan grin in utter delight but then turned serious.. Their essence was one thing but they were a nasty foe to deal with. As Joan estimated, it will be a battle to look forwards to. Something he needs to be serious at.

Joan then inhaled air and then breathed out. Making him relaxed a bit. Also getting relaxed was temporary, next will be an all-out battle. The enemy then released greater miasma on his surrounding area. Making him a huge blunder than before. The miasma was so thick that he was like a chimney of a house. Breathing out smoke greater than before.

Joan then grinned, a greater challenge will also give him more stats on the process. The enemy then shouted as he dashed towards him. While shouting, his cry was like a growling tiger. Making Joan taken aback by the noise.

Joan held his sword tighter than before. His enemy has a weapon that was not used for blocking but solely for attacking. Making Joan grin at his disadvantage. Still, the enemy has a shield and it will be used in place of blocking.

Joan then assaulted him. Enveloping himself with mana mixed with holy elements, the corrosion was then mitigated slightly not to corrode his skin. It was then, he slashed to the enemy.

Bang! Bing!

His first attack was blocked while the last one was deflected by the shield. The enemy then assaulted him by dashing in his direction. Thorns were ready to hug Joan anytime he will be absent-minded and so Joan stepped back a little. Making him jolt at the moment his shield was getting nearer and nearer. Joan then bit his lower lips and then trusts his sword towards the shield. Making him distance himself while his feet rubbed the dirt.

Joan grinned at the moment he was left staring at the enemy. It was then, he was assaulted with a spiked flail in split seconds. Joan ducked in a moments notice then smashed the enemy with his sword on the waist. Luckily, Joan was shorter than the enemy. Making him make use of his height in the current situation.

It was then, the enemy blocked him with his shield that he immediately put nearer on his waist.

Bang!

The enemy was then flung in a few steps. Making him think that the enemy he faced has the same stats as him. It was then, the enemy halted his miasma combustion after seeing that Joan was left unscathed with his miasma. Making also Joan grin after he was seen through.

"You have nasty tricks eh? Mind me to go all out?" Joan said to him.

The enemy just breathed out but didn't reply to his remarks. Making him smile a bit. To Joan, maybe the enemy will not reply if he deemed him unworthy of him to know his name. Just as Joan breathed in, he prepared his strength in his muscles.

Bang!

Joan dashed and slammed his sword vertically in his shield. The shield was lifted after he blocked Joan's blow.

Bang!

The enemy's feet has sunken in the process. The enemy gasped air as his strength and endurance barely held back Joan's attack. Still was not enough for his arm to break. Also, making Joan suspended mid-air and was open for attacks. The enemy slashed his flail at his face and Joan blocked with the flat side of his sword.

Bing!

It was a heavy blow that made Joan propelled away from him. To Joan, the three hundred strength stats were able to create knockbacks or smash boulders into bits. The three hundred dexterity was also able to create afterimages of yourself due to the speed that barely made the eyes follow. Three hundred in vitality was also able to withstand heavy blows and has stamina that can last for hours of fighting. Three hundred focus will also make your senses sharper and magical attributes will become boosted. Also able to make your reaction speed to see flickers of enemy attacks and movements.

It was then, Joan used more speed and strength. Slashing left and right whilst dodging some blows from the enemy. Blocks were solid enough but countering several of them. Also, the enemy was using his thorny shield to bash Joan. Making him evade or block with his all. Not also to just leisurely and nonchalantly manoeuvre his attacks but with his all.

Also, the enemy was confused about why he was battling a kid. It was verily shaking his pride while combating a kid. All his training in the demon world was just to kill a kid in his front was hard to accept. But as he battled with the kid, he was astounded why this kid was able to weather off his life-threatening attacks. Blow by blow, the enemy was enjoying their duel. Making him gain respect as he was able to match his speed and strength.

Just as the two was battling, their duel was interrupted by a bright light that bathed the surroundings. Making Joan saw the figures to light while slowly moving from afar. Joan then saw that Isaias laughed hysterically. Making Joan thought that the heroes were once again breathing.
