A Demon's Journey

Once Azaroth's Dragon Jaw attack clashed against Adonis's Demon Slaying Sword, he felt his Demonic Ardor getting suppressed.

Moreover that too by a significant margin. Azaroth understood the reason for it.

The weapon this man was holding was none other than a Celestial Weapon. Although not a very strong weapon, it was something that possessed Holy Ardor within it.

Meanwhile, Adonis was extremely shocked as well. He could feel that even his Demon Slaying Sword, which suppressed the Demonic Ardor as well as the Demonic Bloodline, wasn't working that well against Azaroth.

Also, his sword's special ability to attack the spirit of a demon and injuring it significantly didn't work as well.

However, Adonis didn't dare to stop for a second and moved forward to slash Azaroth. This time, he used even more of his Earth Ardor and used his Sky Slash attack!

Adonis raised his sword and brought it down to strike Azaroth's head.

However, Azaroth saw his movements and blocked that attack by raising his arm and allowing the sword to strike his arm.

Adonis smiled and used, "Holy Spiritual Frenzy."

Immediately enough, the sword flare up a large amount of Holy Ardor.

Since the sword was touching Azaroth's spirit, it was impossible to dodge this attack.

This attack would unleash Holy Ardor to damage the internal body of the demon. The spiritual energy of the demon would no longer remain in his control, and it would make it easier for the human experts to deal with him.

However, Azaroth coldly smiled as he felt this Celestial Sword using Holy Ardor to attack his Spirit.

Immediately, the sword in Adonis's hand began shaking. It was vibrating so much that it nearly fell out of Adonis's hands.

Azaroth hit Adonis in the belly while he was trying to bring the blade under his control.

After the first impact braced by Adonis owing to his Earth Ardor, Azaroth's arm flare up with pure Hell Flames, and he applied even greater force with it.

Adonis soon felt that his flesh was burning and that Azaroth's fist was about to pierce his skin.

Azaroth's power was likewise becoming stronger with each passing second.

Adonis immediately used his other hand to push Azaroth away, but it didn't work.

Instead, Azaroth remained fixed on his spot as he concentrated on beating his opponent.

Adonis knew that if this went on, he would be gravely injured. He immediately headbutted Azaroth's skull to stop him.

Azaroth once again didn't stop.

Before Adonis could do anything, his stomach was pierced by Azaroth's fist. It went past Adonis's stomach and his other organs. Soon, Azaroth's fist burst out from Adonis's back.

Blood leaked out from Adonis's mouth as he turned around to look at his disciples.

"Inform the sect that a Demon Lord with the strength of a 5 Star Warrior is on the loose. Send reinforcements quickly!" He shouted.

Spyro and Zinon immediately jolted out of their trance. They pulled out their respective jades to send information back to their sect.

Zinon was so scared that he actually sent the information to Adonis's Jade.

Fortunately, Spyro successfully sent the information to the sect and requested reinforcements while also informing them about their location.

The sect was now going to use their contacts to send 5 Star Warriors to their current location as quickly as possible.

Azaroth smirked when he saw that. His aim had been accomplished.

Now, it was time to lower the curtains and end the show.

"Demonic Blazing Incinerator."

Azaroth used this skill, and immediately enough, flames began to flare up from his arm that had pierced Adonis's body.

Adonis quickly used his Earth Ardor to block the flames but unfortunately, no matter how strong his Earth Ardor was, it was quite a bit lacking compared to Azaroth's Hell Flames.

The Earth Ardor, along with his body, began to melt due to those hot flames.

Adonis now realized that there was little to no chance for him to survive today. The reinforcements would take another 10 minutes or so to arrive, and it was extremely unlikely he could remain alive for that long.

He suddenly grabbed Azaroth's body and controlled his Ardor in Spyro and Zinon's body.

He took them away from their current location while increasing his power as he held Azaroth.

The chilly smile on his face was mixed with a mocking sneer. He asked Adonis, "Do you really think they can get away from me?"

Adonis replied with a confident tone, "You won't be able to follow them unless you shake me off. And it should take quite some time even for you to accomplish that."

Azaroth looked amused by that answer, and he replied, "…You are overestimating yourself."

Azaroth's eyes changed color as he used his Mystic Eyes of Perception.

He focused on Spyro and Zinon as the two flew away from him.

Adonis's Ardor suddenly vanished from within their body, and they fell to the ground.

Azaroth also threw out two large dark spheres that charged in Spyro and Zinon's direction.

The flame energy within these Dark Spheres was enough to completely annihilate Spyro and Zinon. Not even their bones would be left behind.

Adonis moved his head and spat out a brown-colored purely spiritual ball attack that targeted one of these two Dark Spheres, but Azaroth focused on it and extinguished it before it could touch his Dark Spheres.

Soon enough, Adonis and his disciples died by his hand.

Azaroth stored the Demon Slaying Sword in his Spatial Ring. It could be useful later.

Unlike his disciples, who had been incinerated down to their bones, Azaroth left behind Adonis's body on the ground, largely intact.

At the very least, if someone saw him, they could find traces of Azaroth's Demonic Ardor and also recognize Adonis immediately.

Azaroth then left the area immediately. He knew that many warriors possessing the 4 Star Rank and the 5 Star Rank were converging where he had fought against Adonis.

He had accomplished his motive.

The entire Glerian Kingdom would soon realize that a Demon possessing the power equivalent to a 5 Star Warrior had entered their kingdom.

This information was going to reach the Sinyalian Kingdom as well. This meant it would reach the ears of Inquisitor Fox as well.

Once the Inquisitor Fox hears a 5 Star-Demon within the Glerian Kingdom, he was bound to relax his guard against his clone. This was merely his side-objective, though.

His main objective was for the King of this Glerian Kingdom to know that a Demon from the Sinyalian Kingdom had entered his Kingdom. Once the King finds out that a Demon had entered his kingdom from the Sinyalian Kingdom, he is bound to contact Lennox Rees regarding it.

Thus, Azaroth's next destination was Veninza City.

Lennox Rees was the man through whom Azaroth had sent multiple precious metals that could be used to create armors and weapons for the soldiers.

All of these weapons would be much more durable and sharper than before.. The armors would be much sturdier and durable.
