Chapter 268 It Was So Disappointing
He had indeed encountered a she-devil similar to the ancient demon he had seen before. The claws of the duo were quite similar to the previous Ancient Demon, but the gaze of these demons was different.
Unlike other monsters, the two demons did not insult James and stood guard against him. This gave James two options:
Either the two she-devils standing in front of him were trying to deceive him, or they were actually cautiously approaching him, as they considered James\' strength quite sufficient.
James, of course, was not going to do any nonsense like trying to find the answer to this question. What he needed to do now was to hold the Godly Sword Lumen tightly in his right hand and kill these two demons as quickly as possible without making himself too exhausted.
Knowing this very well, he suddenly used his dark step ability and suddenly attacked, reaching quite high speeds thanks to the acceleration effect Sophia gave him. Explore new worlds at empire
The two she-demons didn\'t seem to expect James to suddenly attack.
The moment James made his attack, one of the demons jumped in front of the other and tried to meet Godly Sword Lumen directly with its claw.
"SKRIIEEEEEEKK!!!"
A sudden scream came from the female demon and James had to take a few steps backwards. The scream was so loud that James\' ears practically rang.
After this scream, other sounds began to come from the alleyways and far away. James\'s body suddenly trembled, not from fear, but from a feeling he did not know, yet the sounds were getting louder with each passing second.
The whole street began to be surrounded by shadows writhing like living beings. It seemed that one of the she-devils had screamed for help.
The air became thick and suffocating as if it carried the weight of all the evil that had been hidden for centuries. Faint whispers echoed from nowhere and everywhere at the same time.
James saw Sophia, clinging fearfully to her own clothing, begin to tremble. The little girl Miracle and holy Ruby were fine because one was a Supreme Dragon and the other a Phoenix. However, Sophia herself, who was not yet very strong or mentally sound, began to tremble.
It was like a symphony of fragmented words and a cacophony of voices that pushed the boundaries of sanity, and even if James hadn\'t been harmed by them, he would still have to say that he shuddered.
It was as if the stories told on Halloween or the horror stories told around the campfire had come true, a shiver ran through him.
Whispers floated in the darkness, and a chaotic atmosphere was spreading around. Even if James could see what was happening thanks to his night vision, the fact that the entire street was completely blocked by dark shadows made it literally impossible for even light to reflect.
Low growls echoed beneath the murmurs; hundreds of demon beasts, deep, savage and ready to strike, seemed to lurk in the shadows.
James realised in his own essence that he had to make a move now, and he moved again, using his dark stepping ability.
With each step, he stepped on a different place and tried to deceive these monsters, which could be considered two female ancient demons, who were trying to protect themselves from his attack.
Godly Sword Lumen managed to find his target again.
The Godly Sword itself was stuck right in the arm of one of the female demons.
James suddenly pulled the sword out of its stabbing place, and boiling, steaming, purple blood began to come out of the she-demon\'s arm.
"SKRIIUUGHHHHKK!!!"
As the she-demon shouted, the shadows around her became even more frenzied.
Mocking, hissing, pleading voices were practically ringing in James\' ears. Some were sharp and crackling, and indeed almost every one of them was a plea. Others were like shards of ice, each one filling James with a strange sadness.
After all these voices and the strangeness in James\' mind, he easily realised that each of these voices was a spirit and was instantly shocked.
There was a reason he thought that: The pleas.
James knew that the faint pleading voices rising from the shadows were calling for help, calling for him to release them.
James managed to recover from his shock and then, frowning, he activated 8 Sacred Fire without thinking twice.
The different coloured flames merged together to create the perfect fire that looked so colourful and beautiful. Without thinking twice, James released this fire to the earth and spread it.
"Nothing I don\'t want to burn will burn, nothing I don\'t want to die will die, nothing I don\'t want to destroy will be destroyed. Fire worships me." James suddenly said, and with that, 8 Sacred Fire officially went out of control.
This fire burned so brightly that even if it was not possible to completely disperse the surrounding darkness, it was able to burn in response to the light of hope in the dark souls.
It was certainly a mesmerising sight, but what was needed in this case was not mesmerisation but destruction.
The hatred inside James could not be understood with human patience and thoughts.
The colourful flames cut the connections of the dark shadows with whip blows every second, and with each passing second James could see the souls that were released and destroyed.
James\'s nervousness could be understood by every single person watching him. His jaw muscles, even the veins in his throat were starting to become visible from squeezing himself.
He was going to do everything to kill these two female demons standing in front of him now. And when he made such a decision, there were not many people who could stop him.
