Chapter 1505 {Demon Soul Gate Release}
-----
SLAAASH! SLAAASH! SLAAASH! SLAAASH!
As Nadia hacked through the second Red Oni King and Mina restrained and constantly damaged the second, Jamar continued conjuring his powerful mix of magic and techniques to overwhelm them even a little bit more.
Surtr leaped into the air as he saw them working, his sword blazing with his Origin Flames, as he greeted the group of Savage Red Onis following the Kings with his blade.
"Do you think I"ll let you step in?!" With a mighty roar, he swung his sword as he unleashed yet another powerful technique. "{Divine Fire Dragon Soul Blade Arts}: {Demon Sealing Dragon Soul Swords}!"
Surtr this time, released his Aura with the swings of his sword, materializing hundreds of enormous swords made of his own flames, combined with the Soul Power of Asmodeus!
The swords flew at lightning speed against the Red Onis, each one being as t.i.tanic as their Kings, if not slightly smaller.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
The deadly explosions echoed across the entire battlefield, signifying the arrival of Surtr as his two wives felled the two other Red Oni Kings, who couldn"t take any more of the acc.u.mulated damage.
"UURRGHH…!"
"UUAARGH…!"
BAAAMM!! BAAAMM!!
Their enormous bodies collapsed on the jungle floor, making the entire battlefield tremble. Ruby and the Vampires maintaining the barrier quickly noticed what was happening.
"Surtr"s back!"
With a smile she never thought she would make, Ruby felt relieved to see their new companion back from his Inheritance Trial, in the moment where him and his troops were most needed.
And with him came many more of Drake"s soldiers which he had a.s.signed to him, led by a giant blazing lion that two Fire Giant siblings were riding.
The Demonic Beasts and Demons, who were confident they would eventually break through, had their dreams shattered instantly.
"CHARGE! Don"t have mercy!"
The armies instantly clashed against one another, as Surtr led the charge. Nadia hacked through anything relying on her newfound strength and gigantic size. Mina did the same, while also conjuring giant healing and buffing spells that had even more powerful effects than before.
At the same time, Agni activated his Blessing Magic, boosting the strength and durability of everyone even further, all while his Special Technique awakened the Divine Abilities of many.
The Demons, who were so confident on their strength, quickly realized that the people of this world have been growing strong since they left!
They were not the same weaklings as before, the mortals of this world had ascended to G.o.ds, and even as G.o.ds, they had continued to improve themselves.
And the Ancient Divine Dragons, who the Demons have fought so much, were back to lead the inhabitants of this world!
"You d.a.m.ned Dragons!"
"Don"t look down on us!"
"t.i.tans and Dragons again, always protecting the weak insects as if they were their own children…"
"KILL THEM!"
"Don"t let them look down on us!"
The Demons grew furious, charging forwards, a crazed and chaotic clash between both armies occurred, the sound of bloodshed and war echoed across the jungles.
Ruby gritted her teeth as she saw the scene, the Demon army seemed to never end… However, unlike back then when they meet Pandemonium for the first time, there was no visible Gate of h.e.l.l!
So, where did they get through? Is there some sort of Hidden h.e.l.l Gate somewhere?
"This is odd, these Demons never stop coming, we"ve killed hundreds already!" Ruby said. "Ugh, I am already at the limits of what I can accomplish, but I have a bad feeling…"
"But Surtr and his friends are back, Ruby!" Said his mother, trying to cheer her up.
"That"s right young master!"
"With Surtr"s strength, we could surely break through!"
"Don"t lose hope!"
The other fanatic Vampires that have begun following her after she forgave their lives all nodded, they had changed a lot since then, when they were so cold to her.
But now they had become very amicable and serviceable, perhaps because she had become the official head of the family.
She thought of their bootlicking att.i.tude as slightly distasteful, Ruby wasn"t used to lead a whole family, and disliked the Vampires two-faced personality.
But that wasn"t important right now.
"I have to find where the h.e.l.l gate is located and tell the others to destroy it somehow… Ugh, if only Drake could get here quicker!"
As Ruby controlled her senses and started to expand them around the battlefield, she had to filter things a lot, because there was a constant war surrounding her, her senses were having a hard time focusing where the origin of the demons could be truly located.
"Surtr and his army of friends are all really strong, have they grown much stronger since they visited that place?" Ruby wondered. "No, that"s not important right now…!"
As she scanned further and further, she suddenly felt a strange… sensation.
The presence of the Demon Lord leading all the other Demons, which had grown very weak after he was defeated, was beginning to grow larger and larger.
"Wait, what"s this?!"
TRUUUUMMMM…!
Ruby"s crimson-colored eyes widened in shock as she saw the Demon Lord"s enormous Demonic Aura, which constantly grew larger and larger!
"T-This…!"
RUMBLE!
The entire jungle started to tremble even more, as the icy cracks covering Marchosias started to gain countless cracks.
Crack, crack…!
While Rakasha, Yuki, Tisha, and Pekora were distracted fighting the nearby Demons, Marchosias continued to grow his Aura.
And the ice continued cracking…
Crack… CRACK!
"Wait a second, this can"t be! How is he recovering his power so fast?!"
Ruby panicked, quickly sending a telepathic message to everyone while a.n.a.lyzing the situation. The four nearby allies all shifted their gazes to Marchosias frozen "corpse" to realize he was still alive!
Crack, crack, CRACK!
The cracks continued spreading, until the ice could not hold him any longer, exploding into pieces at the same time as it revealed his tattered, incredibly wounded body.
CRAAASH!
"Hahhh… You"ve forced me to release my {Demon Soul Gate}"
Within his Demonic Soul, a sealed power Marchosias had saved for last was slowly unsealed, as chains made out of his own powers broke.
"It"s time…! Hahaha…! {Demon Soul Gate Release}!"
Marchosias entire body underwent an instant metamorphosis!
"We were wrong…" Ruby thought. "The strength of demons… It can"t be gauged."
FLAAAa.s.sHH!!!
