A lot of the surviving magicians who can still fight did not participate in the battle while so wanted to return to take so revenge or just to enhance their abilities against actual demons. Most just backed out due to the fear of losing their lives. Catmod and the others did not force them because it was really an unexpected event. The Phantasmal Reality was supposed to be the place where you can gain actual battle experience, not a place to experience the real terror of the demons.
The look of their faces has shown that most of them have experienced nasty things and I can say I can sympathize with them since during my ti fighting against a demon, I almost got killed. But all I can tell is that I am no longer the sa as them. I already managed to overco my fear on them, its just a matter of experience.
As soon as we assembled on who was going to help to fend off the demons. The other magicians really wanted to chat with but due to the urgency of the situation, they decided to put on hold the discussion and deal with the problem first since the situation is no longer sothing that can be ignored any further.
"We will now be fending off the demons in the Phantasmal Reality. Don't wander off alone especially right now and it is much better if you stick with everyone as long as possible. We can't afford anyone to die in this situation. Attack if necessary, defend anyti and support your allies all the ti to avoid trouble from brewing up. Do not be afraid to release your strongest magic spells on the demons. The stronger, the better. Do you understand ?" Voltaire asked in a loud voice as he looked at us in his strict looking eyes.
"Yes sir!"
"Alright, Mass Teleport!" With the flick of Voltaire's finger, we suddenly got engulfed in warm light and appeared once again to the Phantasmal Reality.
The only thing is that the Phantasmal Reality that I saw during the ti I teleport here for the first ti and the Phantasmal Reality that we are seeing right now are no longer the sa. The current forest that we arrived into no longer looked the sa. The trees are looking like they are about to rot and they lacked the leaves that are always verdant green. The grass and soil are now very dark like it was contaminated by so sort of chemical that caused everything to look very bad.
"Damn, it's only a few hours since we managed to return to the starting point but to think the whole forest would turn like this," Maple said as she looked around the surroundings.
"The amount of demonic energy surrounding the whole place is too intense that removing them manually would prove to be a futile attempt. I would suggest that you don't touch too much of the things around the forest. Prolonged exposure to a thing that got corrupted by the dark power will not be able to fend off the power. It is best you don't hold any of them unless it is accidental or necessary to do so. We have to keep our mana output at full in case of enemy attacks."
The demons have really managed to corrupt a forest this fast. If the demons that attacked Tokyo last ti also did the sa thing, they would already destroy Tokyo imdiately. Just how strong are these demons actually to cause this much corruption?
Many of the magicians who can cut off the trees decided to just cut them off and many of the magicians who can control plants and the earth also used it to clear the way, making it easier for us to traverse the place without touching the trees.
"Stepfather, the miasma stinks a lot in the distance," Anya said as she covers her nose.
"Miasma?" I looked into the distance but there is nothing there. I tried using the mana scan but it is useless because all I can see is dark and nothing else.
Raigaki who was tied up on the shoulder of the Buddhist monk who I just learned to be Tsukoyomi suddenly convulses and his eyes started to glow yellow.
"What the heck is happening to Raigaki?" I pointed at Raigaki's odd behavior.
Although Raigaki is useless and just a big pervert, he is sowhat very sensitive when it cos to demonic miasmas and corrupting elents. As soon as he absorbs so of it, he will imdiately act like this. He also becos a different individual when he turns into his battle mode," Tsukoyomi explained.
"He has a split personality?"
"Yeah. The one he always shows to us is his original personality and the one who suppresses his battle mode. That is why we usually restrain him because of his strong ability whenever it was unleashed. Even in chats, his powers are destructive that is why we also mute him most of the ti."
That was so weird stuff going on in there. But since I have not seen it personally, I will decline on comnting about it. What I should focus on is the situation on our side.
When the other magicians are seeing the movents of Raigaki getting more chaotic, everyone started to go on position.
"If Raigaki is getting wild and starting to berserk, that ans we will be facing dangerous enemies right now. Prepare everyone! Don't let the demons win!" Moonlight shouted.
Tsukoyomi started chanting Sanskrit chants while he held his staff and Japamala together. The green-haired guy who I just have known to be Zan raised his left arm. Soon, a green magic circle appeared on his wrist and spins wildly. I was expecting him to create sothing out of thin air but all of a sudden, his entire arm was engulfed by the magic circle and turned it into a demonic sort of arm.
The others also started their preparations and pulled out their weapons and so just didn't bother to pull out anything and just released their magic auras like how Rena just released a cold current of air as the ground below her started to freeze while Yaya summoned a big stuffed toy that I assud to be her familiar or just a summon she uses to fight.
I have no such flashy movents with so I just stood there and waited for the enemies to appear.
"You don't want to show everyone how aweso you are?" Blue suddenly started speaking.
"Hey, I may be a magician but showing off like that is not my style. I attack directly you know, showing off is just a waste of mana."
"Hurt to show so of those aweso movents of yours? Oh well, you look like a stupid guy when you do that anyway so I think it is a good choice that you didn't decide to do sothing like that yeah."
"F*ck you, Blue."
"F*ck to you too, Kazuma."
I was about to continue our banter when the mist in front of us started to clear and revealed a humongous demon that I ever see. On the shoulder of the demon is a woman that looks like a normal teacher in a high school faculty. But she emits an evil aura that makes think twice about her appearance. There were also a guy that looks like a normal gangster in the streets, if not for his wings and tail visible, you would think that he was just your normal gangster. Behind them are countless demons that all look similar to those demons that invaded Tokyo last ti.
The gangster grinned and flew above us while grinning.
"Welco humans and behold the spectacle of seeing the birth of our great demon lord, Shadow-sama, you all will be the first people that will experience the first taste of death on his hands!"
