Calis soared through the air. The lanky Deimon quickly switched directions and slammed Calis into the ground. The trident rattled next to Calis as the cloth pulled away. The lanky Deimon scoffed and shook his head.
"I don't know what you are, fish, but it seems you're… out of water here." The lanky Deimon snapped the cloth and swung the cloth for the final blow. Lee Seng appeared in front of Calis, flying away as the cloth struck him. The lanky Deimon's smile faded and annoyance grew.
"Devouring Sea Dragon!" Keng flew forward with Hydrosphere pointed straight for the lanky Deimon. The Deimon didn't flinch as a bird appeared right in front of it, taking the blow. The bird exploded in feathers as the cloth whipped out and hit Keng in the chest. Keng flew backwards as a bird swung its wing, knocking Keng straight into the ground. The ground cracked into tiny pieces.
"Keng!" Lee Seng shouted. Lee Seng rushed for Keng, only to be met with a bird. It's eyes focused on him. Lee Seng tightened his grip on his katana and let out a sigh. The bird squawked as it rushed Lee Seng. It ran like a dinosaur ready to plow its enemy. Lee Seng let out a sigh and rushed at the bird.
'Crescent Style, Solar Strike.' Lee Seng's blade turned bright yellow as he slashed the bird. The metal scrapped against metal followed by the sounds of the bird lighting up on fire. It shrieked as it panicked. It jumped away as Lee Seng's blade switched, again. 'Gravitum: Piercing Flash and Dash.' Lee Seng flew forward, striking the bird across the chest before turning and striking it in the wing. Lee Seng chipped the bird apart as Cthulu's Moon hissed. The bird shrieked as it turned to dust.
[Metallic Bird has been killed! 1280 souls have been added to the Soul Bead! 69753/100,000 total souls!]
Liz fired off a lightning bolt, watching a bird light up. She hit another bird and then slammed her hands together, watching the birds magnetize and attract another set of birds into them. The birds exploded on impact, firing out metallic feathers and dust.

"These things are tough to damage, then?" Ritsuka smirked. The shield dissolved around his wrist as Angerfang appeared in his hand. Ritsuka ran forward as the bird raised its wings up. The metallic bird swung its left wing, Ritsuka watching it extend as he slid down. The wing flew past Ritsuka, pulling back as the metallic bird released a vertical chop straight for Ritsuka.
The ground cracked as the metallic bird pulled its enlarged and extended wing up. Ritsuka shot out from behind the bird, raising Angerfang. Angerfang's blade lit up, ripping away its blade into shards. Ritsuka slashed downwards onto the bird, watching it tear into two with a single strike.
Before the bird could even turn to dust, Ritsuka swept up the two bird halves with another strike. Angerfang absorbed the entire bird as Ritsuka turned. Another bird flew at him and Ritsuka gritted his teeth. He swung Angerfang horizontally and watched the red energy release. Ritsuka twirled the bladeless Angerfang. He pointed out to the crumbling metallic bird and watched as all of released energy returned back to Angerfang.
"Ah!" Evan jumped out of the way, barely dodging the bird's rushed attacks. The bird flapped its wing and took the sky. It screeched as it dive bombed Evan. Evan smiled as his energy crackled and danced around him. Evan lifted his hand and pushed the energy out of his hand. The metallic bird froze in place, descending into the ground as Evan rushed at it. Evan slammed against the bird, firing it straight towards the lanky Deimon.
"Hmph, they can easily take them out…" The lanky Deimon commented. He raised his hand and forced the metallic bird Evan had hit to disappear. Water rushed from both sides of the Deimon. Evan had only created an opening for the team to attack and now it was up to the rest to do their part. "I told you I came here to get this Curse, willingly. You don't think I have an ace up my sleeve?"
The two waves of water slammed into each other, engulfing the lanky Deimon. The two bodies of water began to spill as Keng and Calis spun the water around, holding the water from washing out on them. A dark purple energy crackled within the waters. A low noise grew as a set of purple-red eyes appeared in the waters.
In an instant, the waters exploded in every direction, releasing the lanky Deimon. A how erupted into the air before a gust of wind rushed straight at Keng. The large dark-furred beast swung at Keng, knocking him backwards as it turned and rushed straight for Calis. Calis lifted his trident to block and watched as the large beast smash the trident into two before sending Calis backwards.
Lee Seng's senses burned. He turned and watched as a large werewolf stood behind the lanky Deimon. It's purple and red eyes burned brightly with energy as the lanky Deimon wiped water off his face.
"Let's see if you can deal with a Werewolf! I've spent so much time trying to get this one and his strength and speed are crazy!" The lanky Deimon smiled.
"Keng." Lee Seng called. Keng turned as Lee Seng appeared from thin air.
"It's a Werewolf of all things." Keng sighed.
"Speed and strength like that makes it at least A-cusp tier…!" Ritsuka telepathically spoke to the group.
"We just have to mark this one for Lord Cain." Lee Seng told them. He fished the paper out of his pocket and held it within his pocket. "Let's play a game of tag?"
"Y-you really want to do such a thing?" Olivia stuttered.
"Sick em!" The lanky Deimon pointed. The werewolf glowed as it disappeared from the Deimon's side. It appeared in front of Olivia, whacking her across the face and sending her flying. Lee Seng clicked his tongue and disappeared. He appeared in mid-air, grabbing Olivia and disappearing with her, again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLee Seng landed next to Keng and watched as the werewolf appeared behind Olivia, swiping down. Lee Seng turned, groaning as the hot searing pain of the werewolf's attack sliced his back. Liz fired off a couple blasts of lightning bolts at the werewolf. The lanky Deimon flicked his fingers and watched the lightning bolts dissipate.
"You're gonna have to do better than that!" The lanky Deimon laughed. Liz lifted off the ground and narrowed her eyes. Purple lightning coursed her body, enveloping her. She turned and let out a beam attack at the lanky Deimon. The werewolf disappeared and reappeared in front of the Deimon, blocking the attack.
'It'll protect its master.' Liz thought. 'Then we'll do this! Psionic Fury!' Purple lightning birds formed out of Liz's energy, taking flight into the air. 'Psionic Blast!' The birds and Liz all fired off condensed energy at the same time. Each bird's beam curved off in different directions, catching the lanky Deimon's attention.
"So, you are capable of something more complex. Maybe I should've started with you." The Deimon smiled. Manny and Evan rushed forward as the werewolf lifted its arms up to block. Evan was the first to make it before the first hit of psionic blasts.
Evan grasped at the Werewolf and crushed in hand. The werewolf froze in place as Olivia linked her fingers together. The cloth flew off the lanky Deimon's hand and began to swipe at the nearest blast when a strange energy swept over him.
"Agh!" The Deimon and the werewolf exploded in psionic blasts, flying in different directions. Olivia weaved her hands together and slammed the ground.
"Vortex." Olivia watched as the ground shattered into bits, rushing straight for the werewolf. The ground sank, pulling the werewolf down. Olivia tightened her hand into a balled fist and watched the earth harden, again.
"There's our opening!" Keng shouted. He bounded forward, disappearing as a silver rune exploded. Keng reappeared above the lanky Deimon. "Altered Weapon Art: Cosmic Rage." Hydrosphere pointed down at the lanky Deimon as Keng slammed down onto the lanky Deimon. He pushed Hydrosphere down and watched as two light-water dragons formed around his arms.
The lanky Deimon gritted his teeth as set of armor hands caught Keng's attack. Metal groaned as the two energies pushed against each other. The metal hands pushed Keng backwards, sending him up as a large armored humanoid flew out of the lanky Deimon's body. It's cloak wrapped around the Deimon, absorbing it as it landed in the ground.
A black wisp appeared in front of the armored monster. Lee Seng appeared, swinging his hand down onto the armor. The armor creaked as Lee Seng forced the thing to kneel.
"More tricks." Lee Seng scoffed. "I guess I can take this opportunity to show you mine."
