The Story Never Ends

"Eh! What happened?" Davion asked.

"I heard that the group of people who were evacuating the city got ambushed by some devils. We need to hurry there or else…" She didn't even want to finish her sentence as one could imagine what might happen there.

"Let's leave," Davion announced.

When he said this, the girls nodded and looked at him as if waiting for him to do something.

"Why are you all looking at me this way?" He didn't understand.

"Senior Brother, we are waiting for you to take out your spiritual artifact?" Stella explained.

"Don't you girls have one?" Davion asked in confusion.

"Humph, as a senior brother, it's your responsibility to take it out," Mia replied while putting her hands on her hip.

"Yeah, we only have lower-grade spiritual artifacts. But it will take us some time to reach there. However, it should not be a problem with a middle-grade spiritual artifact as you should have one." Amelia explained. She knew that the inner court disciples were quite rich enough to possess middle-grade spiritual artifacts and almost everyone had one. 

"Oh!" Davion finally realized what they meant. Still, there was nothing he could do as he didn't have one.

Thus, he could only reply, "Then I can only disappoint you. I haven't bought one."

"Hehe, you are too poor," Mia mocked him.

"Mia, stop that. We will be leaving with mine. We can't waste much time here." Stella took out her spiritual artifact and spoke.

It looked like a lotus and was completely red in color. There was adequate space for them to stand in the middle.

"Beautiful." Davion praised her and was the first one to jump in.

"You.." Mia wanted to say something when she noticed that Stella and Amelia had already followed him.

"Forget it. I will get him next time," She muttered.

In Tuberosa City,

The atmosphere seemed dull and only sounds of battle could be heard. Houses were on fire and smokes were coming out from everywhere. Herds of devils were rampant on the streets. 

In one of the streets, the civilians were carrying their weapons and fighting them with all they had got. Although they managed to kill a lot of them, they were already in a dire state as they were simply too few compared to them.

Among these civilians, there was an old man battling with two devil minions who were twice as large as him. He was carrying a long spear and blocking their every move. Suddenly, he backed a few steps away and cried out, "Burning Spear"

Flames emerged from his spear and he thrust it towards them. The devils were not prepared for this and got burnt to death in an instant. 

The old man panted heavily after this move as it consumed a lot of his energy. He fell on his knees and supported himself with his spear.

"Grandpa.." he heard a youthful voice coming from behind. 

"Axel, why are you here? We were buying you, children, some time to escape." The old man asked in anger and didn't even look back. 

"I can't live without you." A young child came infront of him and replied with tears in his eyes.

Seeing this, the old man wiped his tears and asked, "Did the others escape?" 

"Umm." Axel nodded and said, "Grandpa, let's run away. We can make it."

The old man was about to say something when a dangerous aura came from the front. He gazed ahead and saw a devil with four arms and long tails destroying everything in its path.

"Don't tell me it's a devil commander?" He panicked and immediately had the thought of fleeing.

Thus, he carried Axel with his right hand and started running away.

"Grandpa.." Axel didn't understand what caused his grandpa to change his mind. Anyways he felt happy inside but it didn't last long as they saw a large shadow under their feet.

When they looked up, they found a huge house falling down from the sky.

"No.." Axel yelled.

"Bang"

The house crashed a few meters ahead of them and blocked their path. Even though they were not safe for the time being, the old man could finally catch his breath.

"Haha, humans are you scared?" A burst of heavy laughter came from behind.

The old man turned back and saw the same four-armed devil. 

"He's really a devil commander." The old man knew that only the devil commanders and above could speak.

"Axel, run and don't look back," He ordered.

"No.." Axel clung to his body and didn't want to separate. What could one expect from a child?

"Haha, young and old blood. I should be considered lucky." The devil licked its lips.

The old man tried to free himself from Axel but he failed to do so. Thus, he could only accept his fate.

"When will those disciples from the sect come? I had already sent them the information a few hours ago." He thought and glanced at the people who were fighting far away.

"Will we all fall here?" He felt dejected.

Since everyone was busy fighting, nobody noticed that a beam of blue color light was descending down from the sky and coming straight towards the head of the four-armed devil.

"Whom do I taste first?" The devil showed an ugly smile and approached them slowly.

"Grandpa.." Alex got scared and gripped onto his body more tightly.

"Just close your eyes and everything will be fine." The old man sighed.

Alex nodded and closed his eyes and the same goes for the old man. 

"Hehe, how could it be so easy?" The devil was about to catch both of them with its large hand when suddenly it felt a huge terror coming from above.

"This.." Before it could respond, the beam of light crashed into him and an explosion took place.

"BOOM"

"What happened?" The old man opened his eyes and was shocked by what he saw.

The ground ahead of him had already sunk a few meters deep and that devil had been pinned on the ground with a halberd which was still radiating lightning from it.

"Wow, grandpa. You are a prophet. A miracle happened." Axel exclaimed and was full of praises for his grandpa.

The old man had black lines on his face and didn't even know what to say.

"Maybe the disciples have finally come here for the rescue?" While he was in deep thought, he felt some movement above him.

When he looked over, he saw a beautiful lotus descending ahead of him. From there he saw a group of disciples coming out.

So, he immediately bowed and respectfully said, "Greetings disciples." 

While Axel stood behind his back and gazed at them with curiosity.

Davion, who was at the front nodded and ordered, "Take away the civilians and escape from here. We will create a path for you."

"Thank you, Sir." The old man replied and rushed back with Axel.

"Grandpa, who is he?" Axel asked innocently.

"They are the disciples from the Thunderbolt Sect and he should be the one who killed that devil." The old man answered.

"Grandpa, can I become strong like him in the future?" Axel smiled.

"Haha, you can. But you have to work harder." The old man pinched his cheeks.

"I am grown up now," Axel yelled while trying to break free.

***

"Girls, I will leave everything to you all. But remember not to kill them. I want to have the finishing blow," Davion calmly said.

"Eh! Why so?" Stella didn't understand.

"I have my reasons," Davion said. How could he say that he would earn experience points and become stronger in this way?

"Humph, maybe you are trying to get all the credits by telling us that you killed them." Mia gave him a suspicious look.

Davion laughed, "Haha, do you think that I would fall that low?"

"Who knows?" Amelia would never believe anything this guy said.

"Ok then. You can all take the corpses of the devils below the Devil Commander stage." Davion thought of a solution.

"Really?" Stella's eyes lit up. She knew that there were many devil minions and devils here. So, they could earn a lot of contribution points. As for the devil commanders, she didn't care about that. This was because they were simply not strong enough to kill them and lastly there were a few of them. Hence, the corpses of the other devils were more worth it.

"Of course," Davion smiled.

"I didn't know that you could be so generous," Amelia found him more pleasing to her eyes. The same goes for Mia.

"Let's do this now." Davion pointed his finger to one of the devil commanders in the herd.

The halberd in the body of the devil flew up and went straight in that direction. 

"BOOM"

In an instant, the head of the devil got chopped off. 

"Girls, what are you waiting for?" Davion found that they were looking at him instead of going there.

"Oh! Yes, yes." They came to their senses and rushed towards the devils.

However, they had become speechless by how strong he was. How could anyone in the Golden Core Stage slay a devil commander so easily? Previously they had thought that it was an ability of the middle-grade halberd, but it seemed like they were wrong.. He really had the strength.
