245 Hopeless Battle

Within a few seconds after Gutz’s declaration, he had closed the distance between them and the aloof and expressionless Demon General.

When he was within reach, he clenched his fist as he gathered destructive and explosive mana into his fist, his body glowing in this fierce fiery aura.

He then shouted at the top of his lungs: “Die! Vile demon!”

A bellowing battle cry that shook the surrounding mana came from his mouth as he aimed his mana-infused fist at the Demon General.

Watching the fly-like existence buzzing towards him, Demon General Jarkoffin scoffed before casually swatting at the approaching Gutz as if he were an annoying fly.

He didn’t even bother to use his energy in the attack- that was how terrifying the difference between them was.

BANG!

A moment later, under the shocked gaze of everyone present, a dull but loud impact reverberated in the vicinity.

Crack!

.....

With a crisp sound, Gutz felt all the bones in his right arm broken, and even his internal organs were affected by the reverberating shockwave from the impact.

“Arghhhhh!”

Gutz couldn’t help screaming in pain as he flew away like a broken ragdoll from Demon General Jarkoffin’s casual attack, and he crashed onto the ground shortly after.

Afterward, he rolled on the ground for tens of meters before crashing against a large boulder not far away. His right arm was loose, swollen, and twisted in the wrong direction. He even coughed up a mouthful of clotted blood from the internal damage.

Coincidentally, this was the same boulder that Randy had crashed into when he fought against the two demons. Therefore, when he crashed into a boulder, it immediately broke into smaller pieces of rock, burying Gutz underneath the rubble.

It was at this moment that Tiana snapped out of her shock and shouted: “Gutz!”

She ran toward the direction where Gutz was buried without turning back, as she was the healer of their team. Furthermore, there was no way she would let a team member die in front of her if she could prevent it.

Moments later, she dragged Gutz’s body from the rubble, placed his head on her lap, and then quickly used her healing skills to recover his injuries. These injuries were quite serious- life-threatening even.

Almost all the bones in his right arm were shattered and his internal organs were breaking. According to her initial examination, it will take a while before she is able to successfully heal him.

Fortunately, she was very adept at healing, as she could even recover missing body parts, so recovering broken bones wasn’t a problem. However, such injuries usually take a long time to heal.

For someone like Gutz, who specialized in strength to be in this state, one could only imagine the force that he had to endure just from this brief confrontation that lasted for mere seconds.

Despite his current state, Gutz still maintained his consciousness as he glared in the direction of Demon General Jarkoffin.

Meeting his gaze, Demon General Jarkoffin only briefly looked at Gutz in the distance before turning away to face the others and then curtly said in derision: “Worms! You should all squirm like worms before this general.”

At this point, the other had also snapped out of their thoughts.

Vairon, who was the leader of their Hunting group was peeved that he let his cautious behavior get the better of him, as it really didn’t matter what countermeasure they thought of. Since they would lose to this demon either way.

Therefore, seeing his comrade in such a life-threatening state, he glared at the demon and madly shouted: “Demon General!”

“Hm?”

Demon General Jarkoffin met Vairon’s intense gaze that was full of determination.

Vairon then said: “Why don’t we have a one on one match between just the two of us? In exchange let my comrades go.”

“Hah! Just you? You are not worthy, worm!”

Naturally, Vairon was aware that he couldn’t do anything to this demon, even if he were to use his full strength against it. He would be fighting a hopeless battle from this moment onwards.

However, he was only stalling for time until Tiana finished healing Gutz. After that, they would think of a way to escape their current predicament.

As such, Vairon gritted his teeth and continued: “Are you afraid that you’ll lose to this worm? Is that it?”

Demon General Jarkoffin laughed and then spoke in a mocking tone: “A worm like you is trying to rile me up with those obvious words. I could kill you with just my sneeze, so there’s no way I will take your words seriously. Besides a few people among you humans like those peak-level combatants and the apostles, no one can make me fight them seriously.”

‘Apostles? What’s he talking about? Haven’t we been defeating the Demon Generals just fine until now even without an apostle on our side? Although we haven’t been able to completely defeat them each time, they were still badly injured during the previous wars.’ Vairon thought that this demon was most likely boasting about himself.

After all, while the Demon General were terrifying in battle, a group of combatants with power levels between level 70 and level 80 were enough to defeat them with few casualties.

For them to truly defeat them without causing casualties, they only needed to send someone with a power level of 90 and higher.

Though those with level 99 usually don’t participate in such battles.

In reality, even the demons do not send out their main forces during wartime- they only send a few demon generals and their armies.

Unbeknownst to Demon General Jarkoffin, just now, he almost gave out some secret that shouldn’t be divulged to the humans.

Even when he heard such strange words from the demon, Vairon was only confused by his words, and he said: “I get that you’re strong since you could even cause that impatient muscle-head in our group to fall into such a state. However, don’t look down on me too much. I am much stronger than him. Otherwise, there’s no way I will be the Leader of our party!”

Demon General Jarkoffin didn’t reply to him. Instead, he turned his head back to look at the young woman healing the barely conscious Gutz with a frown.

‘What a frightening level of healing prowess. To think someone with such mastery over healing magic existed among the humans besides those damned apostles...’ Demon General Jarkoffin was inwardly shocked. However, he still had a nonchalant expression on his face.
