Chapter 381 - The Beast’s Roar

'This is all wrong…'

The tri-horned demon held his head in despair as his main distinct feature broke and fell to the ground, he no longer could be called a tri-horned demon, he was now a hornless demon instead…

'Just when did everything go this bad…?'

He had already received one more strike that he couldn't dodge, which made him reach his current hornless state, but that wasn't what made him worried, he no longer cared about his life anyway, he just kept staring at the battlefield as the human to his front smashed the sword he was holding into his chest.

The bodies of the 'connectors' were there, laid on the ground, just beside their protectors. Barely enough time has passed to gather enough essence for his connection to go beyond the 'suppression' and use an extent of power that he normally wasn't incapable of, yet somehow, someone used the same amount of time to take down the main circle of connectors that linked the whole network which they established for the sake of taking over this domain.

'It's really the end…'

The hornless demon simply forgot about his stupid belief that the annoying 'Lord' was playing with him at the beginning. The only explanation was that they fell deep into the scheme of that despicable human…

Calling him a pest was no longer appropriate, the situation was quite obviously unsalvageable, and this was all because of him, they were simply being played around with!

'Curse that incompetent descendant of our lineage!'

With his communication with the 'Lord' completely cut off, the only thing the hornless demon could do was find someone to blame as he grew closer to death…

'Yes, it's all his fault!'

Fighting in a base didn't come with the dangers of the 'suppression' that made him reach his useless state, just how could someone miss the opportunity to kill a lone human intruder with an army of demons of his disposal?!

Although the multitude of the army that had been in his base wasn't couldn't exactly compare to the current one, it was surely more than enough to take down that human while he could be just considered a pest before he reached this stage where he blew their plan to smithereens, wasn't it?

'May the Sovereign salvage us all!'

His head screamed that this tumor of a human needed to be disposed of, yet he could do nothing, the contingency plans of any kind that he had were all out of service with the destruction of this army's circle, even the simple open of detonation to take him down with him proved impossible thanks to his overdrawing of elements in the earlier intimidation show...

As such, all he could do was hope that the future demons who would meet that human would know well enough to take him out even at the cost of their life.

What happened in this domain was nothing but a little example of what information could do, even if that human was as weak as a bug in his old opinion, this bug now his poisonous fangs that are capable of laying destruction to their 'mini-waves'.

'However… this is not the true end, it's just the beginning…'

The hornless demon's mania finally came to an end as he closed his eyes with full trust that even such a human would still perish if he insisted on standing in the way of their great cause!

`~~`~~`~~`

As he was laying waste to the now hornless demon, the small smile that the Elemental Blade had shown was still there on his face.

'At least he did it…'

After suffering a horrible betrayal from one who he thought was his friend, one who didn't simply betray him because of benefits but was just a talented faker all along. He couldn't help but feel refreshed as part of the pain in his heart vanished when he looked at his current circumstances…

Unlike that treacherous guy whom he trusted easily thanks to his trusting nature, this young man managed to live up to his trust that he was forced to give due to the inescapable situation, it made him remember that the world had two sides two it, there was never just good or bad on its own.

Of course, that didn't mean he would show full trust on him, he must have had his own motives behind doing this, and their ways just coincided, but at least that saved him from completely falling into the abyss of black emotions.

Looking at the hornless demon whose eyes were now closed as he seemed to be on his last breath, the Elemental Blade no longer used his Elemental Revolving attack as he was also severely overdrawn, he simply infused his sword with elements as he pierced the demon's heart.

The demon's tough skin which had endured dozens of sword strikes without being pierced to the moments made its way through this time as the demon's leftover elemental projection was no longer there. The sharpness that was increased by the Elemental Blade's fine control of an element's attribute proved more than enough to finish the job against the enemy who had completely given up.

However, the smile on the Elemental Blade's face disappeared as he noticed the fine black line that appeared on the demon's neck as well as the flow of an unseeable energy that left its body as it fell down…

Moving his head back to trace the place that energy flew to, his eyes landed on an empty spot… he was sure that energy stopped there, but it was definitely no longer there, his perceptive ability was one of his strongest points after all…

But…

Rooaaaaaaaaaah!

Before he could try to check anything, a terrible roar sounded out as a huge bodied creature seemed to have jumped into the fray of the battle, using its teeth to tear apart the first demon its eyes landed on.

"This is a…"

Disregarding that thing he noticed earlier, for the time being, the Elemental Blade took a closer look at the aggressive beast, which seemed to look like a…

"Lion?"
