Millions of demons erged from dinsional rifts in all directions, quickly filling the air with a sinister power. Their red eyes glowed, expressing a malicious smile as they advanced with calculated steps to surround all possible escape routes.
As the demons proceeded, the fissures continued to extend upward, echoing a distressing sound of spatial distortion, like an ominous forewarning.
After the exit of all demons, a slight surprise hung among them. They detected no trace of fear or desperation. The hundreds of Cerberuses stepped back slightly, while the hybrids seed to be piled on top of each other, evoking a sense of absurdity for everyone present.
Then, three demons stepped forward, and one of them, with a giant red body, roared with a penetrating gaze. "Traitors! How dare you turn against the supre emperor!"
None of the three clans showed any reaction. Their gazes were extrely indifferent to the demons. At that mont, the sound of space sharpened, and the fissures covered the entire horizon, encircling everyone in the center.
"Tohz! We’ve known each other for centuries; the emperor himself used his power to allow us to purge the traitors. If you admit your mistakes, we’ll spare so mbers of your clan," said another completely black demon addressing the leader of the Cerberi.
The leader of the Cerberi remained indifferent and silent, while the demon twisted his face in response to the lack of a reply. At that mont, a round figure that was exactly in the center, surrounded by the three clans, spoke.
"Look around, idiots. The entire space that the emperor distorted to bring you here, directly from outside the realm, is out of control," the whale said dryly. "This crappy emperor has no talent for using space. He just used sothing to forcefully manipulate the laws; if you go back now, you might still save yourselves."
A silent second passed after the words, but soon after, tallic sounds of demonic laughter reverberated in all directions. The demons looked at that giant human with extre disdain.
Until the whale snorted, adding, "Let guess... the demonic emperor gave the order for you to send back all your younger ones, even those at the peak of cultivation. And you, who have lived a long ti and are nurous, were given the honor to fulfill his mission. Am I right?"
The demons heard, still with amused faces, and didn’t respond. But the three clans around the whale understood the positive answer, by the looks that subtly trembled from everyone.
"As I said, you have half a minute to turn around. The demon emperor didn’t send you on a mission. He just used space brutally and uncontrollably to bring you here while he couldn’t control it at all. You were only sent to stop us from doing sothing before everything closes. Then everyone will die; the distortion is spreading and will swallow everyone in a maximum of five minutes," the whale calmly concluded, and Bruno sighed ntally. He did what he could.
Soon, a third demon that looked like a bat said indifferently, "I never understood why the emperor allowed these two hybrid clans to survive. But now everything seems clear; these traitors would eventually plan another uprising. The emperor just wanted to test our loyalty."
All the half-demons furrowed their brows and tightly gripped the hilts of their weapons. Traitors... they carried this stigma throughout their existences and always saw themselves as sinners.
But now...
They instinctively felt that their ancestors could see the true situation of all demons. The sacred being had explained it to them before; all realms and all demons are just useful slaves serving to feed sothing.
The ancestors, once hated for bringing the disgrace and humiliation of becoming pathetic hybrids, were now adored by all. They were clever... no, they managed to preserve their bloodlines and techniques. All of this weighed on the day when the divine being would arise! Everyone thought in a completely irrational and strange way.
"Tohz, the supre emperor has given us everything we have and protected us from being devoured by other outer empires. His race is very important to us. You should not bury your bloodlines by being deceived by a human and these traitors," the black demon spoke again, with tense eyes fixed on the Cerberus leader.
The Cerberus leader, in turn, just snorted indifferently and turned his gaze to the whale, who remained silent with crossed arms on his back. Then, the Cerberus spoke:
"A slave, after a long ti being treated as such, accepts diocrity and the collar of its owner, thinking that their whip and wickedness are sothing natural and necessary. Brother Cuniu, co back now. We Cerberi are not demons, and we only follow one who is worthy of our admiration."
The demon sighed in disbelief and took a step back, while the other leaders smiled and withdrew their weapons made of black bones.
"KILL THE TRAITORS!" The order from the leader of the largest demon clan echoed. Soon, a nefarious war cry reverberated among all demons from the ten present clans.
The three clans focused tensely. This was a desperate fight; as strong as they were now, most had the sa cultivation as theirs; and they would face almost five tis more demons. They would probably be driven to despair very quickly, but they would fight to the end.
Runula’s mind was only filled with coldness and confidence, and she quickly reached the side of the whale; there was no doubt in her, as that round being was nearby. Calirer, on the other hand, took steps forward from the whale and his group, worried. She saw no way out of this, even if her mbers used demonic fla; in this confined space, it would kill everyone around. That power could not be controlled in any way.
Alm and Bruno just looked indifferently at the demons ahead and saw the fissures getting larger, gradually shrinking the space inside. They ford a prison with no escape for everyone inside, and it would now slowly engulf them all.
Then, the whale looked at its group beside it. Almin and Langrum had the highest cultivation, being at the Heaven Stage Realm. But all the millions of demons were in the middle of the Elental Condensation Realm. Obviously, it was impossible for them to fight.
Then, the whale just stood there with them and calmly gave orders to the three leaders. "Keep the Cerberi united," it said to the Cerberus leader.
Next, the whale reached forward and lightly touched Runula’s head. Runula felt that touch and almost jumped in surprise. Ruri’s eyes imdiately narrowed, but in the next second, she and Almin felt sothing changing. It was the array. A new arm was created.
It lasted a second, and the whale spoke indifferently. "Calirer, help her. Runula, spare nothing."
Runula quickly assud her true form, and Calirer jumped on her back.
Everything lasted less than five seconds, and the demons rushed forward, thirsty for blood. It was at this mont that they saw a lone small wyvern flying towards them, and a ridiculous smile appeared on everyone’s faces.
But...
In less than a second, they felt a shock directly in their souls. It was a bloodline suppression!
The small half-wyvern suddenly turned into sothing that made everyone’s gaze freeze in its direction. All demons of lower ranks halted their steps, and their bodies seed to tremble. Then that small figure opened its mouth, and their world turned upside down.
ROAAAAAR!
All the Cerberi standing in the center froze as frightened as the demons. At the sa ti, the whale just felt almost all of its and Almin’s QI being burned by the new array mber. But in return, in less than a second, even the three leaders of the demonic clans were frozen.
"Chains!" The whale quickly spoke, awakening the Cerberus leader, who roared to everyone.
Imdiately, the thousands of remaining Cerberuses exploded with all their bloodlines. And dark chains covered the skies.
Clank! Clank! Clank!
From all directions, the demons felt their bodies growing heavy. Obviously, there weren’t enough Cerberi to chain millions of demons.
But among the demons, there was a common rule for all, the law of the strongest. In anticipation of the unilateral massacre, the most powerful demons, thirsty for fun, had the priority and surged forward with everything they had. And obviously, they were all from the three major demonic clans. Because of that, they were the first ones to be caught without any resistance, thanks to the dragon’s roar.
"Burn them all," the whale said indifferently to the half-demons.
Then, without any hesitation, the wyverns leaped into the skies, and dreadful smiles covered their faces. At that mont, Bruno focused entirely, and a celestial blue mark illuminated the foreheads of all the half-demons.
All the millions of demons only saw their world freeze before the roar; then, when they awakened, they saw those imposing demons in front of them, chained and defenseless. Soon, in the next second... everything was covered in black... and nothing remained, not even their lives.
The Cerberi felt and saw the world being covered in black flas in terror. And in less than a second, those chained ceased to exist. Everything happened as quickly as the blink of an eye; then, they felt a warmth run through their bodies, and their minds beca numb with a strange but welcoming pleasure.
Bruno felt only a minimal amount of his power of faith being sucked. Now that all the half-demons possessed a mark of the Rurian Faithlink technique, it was much easier and more efficient to use his power, and they could still affect the demons directly. They didn’t have control over the flas, but the power of faith could extinguish them. So Bruno just let a controlled amount of these flas flow and extinguished them imdiately before it was too late.
Soon, the half-demons landed on the ground, completely healthy and full of vigor. They quickly turned towards the sacred whale, and their eyes trembled. It was the fat divine being’s blessing!
Runula and Calirer landed in front of the sacred whale. Runula was exhausted, while Calirer couldn’t contain the excitent in her heart. They won? So easily... this was truly the power of their clan’s technique... no... it was the power coming from that round figure.
The whale was indifferent as always, and Ruri just smiled from ear to ear. Then, the whale sent a ssage through the array.
High above, outside the spatial prison, a demonic figure took shape, and its face was completely twisted. It was the demonic emperor.
"Impossible!" He muttered in disbelief, then cald down. "Well, it doesn’t matter. He will die to the trap..."
He stopped his words midway when he felt all spatial laws freeze in place.
