As he ran at his opponent, Lothur used his defensive and movent techniques, quickly getting close to his enemy.
Since the opponent was much weaker than him physically, when Lothur moved, the demon could not keep up and was taken by surprise.
Pow!
Lothur used his Elental Staff to hit this demon hard in the face, throwing it to the other side of that chamber of about 70 square ters.
"Ahhhhhhhh! Worm!" The demon scread in pain as it felt how brutal Lothur's attack had been, as it felt several bones in its skull fractured, with blood dripping from its nose and mouth.
At that instant, the four youths in Lothur's group rushed toward where the demon had been earlier, following young Ritter's orders without delay.
They were all fearful about their survival, so they would not stay behind after Lothur ordered them to flee.
But Elke was hesitant, worried about her man. So she moved a little slower as she wanted to stay behind.
"Go, Elke. Obey !" Lothur shouted at her as he saw his enemy falling after slamming its back against one of the walls of that cave.
She clenched her fists upon hearing this, and tears stread down her eyes. But after a few seconds, she departed from there, following the escape route the demon had created for itself.
It had already planned to lure stronger humans to this place, devour them, and then escape before powerful people or people capable of killing it got there.
That's why it destroyed the main entrance to this cave after Lothur's group entered it!
But it could not expect that its enemies would use its escape tunnel!
"You bastard! Do you think you'll be able to stop ? Dream on!" This demon stood up from where it fell as the wounds on its face healed, leaving behind only a light black smoke around its face.
Then this creature opened its hands, and sothing similar to black flas appeared. It looked at where Lothur's companions were trying to escape. Then, it moved its hands, hurling dark energy balls against the escape tunnel.
Lothur saw this and frowned, feeling that this must be part of this demon's evil art, charged with the kind of law and elent that had affected the animals and beasts earlier.
He moved in front of the demon's throws, dancing with his staff to counter the enemy's movent.
Lothur moved his staff in front of his body and tried to strike the first ball of dark energy, hoping to dispel it.
When the dark energy touched the staff, instead of disappearing, as one would expect given the level of that individual and Lothur's, it 'deflected.' Then it went right into young Ritter's 'unprotected' chest.
"Hahahaha, idiot, you think I don't feel this artifact of yours? Unfortunately for you, that is not an elental blow!" That creature of great sensory ability said this, already running towards Lothur to attack while its opponent was distracted.
At that instant, Lothur realized that his opponent had attacked him with a special kind of energy imbued only with laws, sothing designed to strike only the soul.
He then clenched his fists and tried to stand firm, focusing on the enemy, to stop it in that spot and give his allies ti.
'I have to hold that demon until they contact one of my watchers!' He continued in front of the secret exit of that place, moving against the other balls of dark energy going against him.
Lothur endured each attack, feeling such a thing entering through the pores of his skin and seeping into his body, unable to defend himself.
That was not the dark elent he had resistance to, so such an ability was not helpful to him at this ti.
But for so reason, Lothur did not feel much discomfort from it, as he had expected when the first enemy attack hit him.
Because of this, when the demon ca to his side and attacked with a kick to his chest, the young Ritter defended himself skillfully, stopping his opponent's leg with his hands.
Lothur caught the demon's right heel and then lifted it in the air until he swung it from side to side, slamming this opponent's body against the floor and the cave's stone walls.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" The demon cried out in pain as it felt Lothur's attacks, feeling its bones breaking and regenerating again and again.
'What is happening? Why is my ability, Sudden Darkness, not coming into effect?' The creature asked itself amid its mont of difficulty.
Every demon had an innate ability, sothing that eventually, upon their death, had a great chance of becoming the ability the Soul Bone gave to its user.
In the case of this demon, the ability in question involved the manipulation of a type of Natural Law related to degradation and corruption. Such a thing could range from being used to degrade the ntal structures of a being and manipulate it to creating flas and physical attacks capable of striking at the soul of its targets.
But to this demon's misfortune, in addition to having an incomplete soul, Lothur had the system on his side, which was not long in showing signs.
[Malicious energy infiltration into the host's body detected...]
[The malicious energy tempered the host's soul for 1 minute and 2 seconds...]
[Triggering ergency asures...]
[Affinity the destructive Natural Laws reached...]
[The host's soul reached the purity necessary for promotion...]
...
[Failed to distribute the bonus of advancent regarding the number of affinities of the host's soul.]
[The host soul is incomplete.]
Lothur saw this as he beat the demon he was facing, happy and, at the sa ti, annoyed at losing another bonus to his soul because of his current situation.
But he did not have much ti to think about it since his opponent was really troubleso.
Lothur might be stronger than this individual, but with each passing mont, he continued to spend his finite energy. anwhile, the demon in question had almost infinite stamina, which would give it an advantage if the fight continued for a long ti!
Because of this, Lothur could not keep the fight in this situation for long and soon tried to eliminate his opponent.
"Die, bastard!" Young Ritter pierced the skull of that strange creature, causing part of the demon's brain to co out through its cracked head.
Lothur continued to beat such a being with his staff for a few monts, destroying that creature's head and heart.
Unfortunately, none of this had any effect. When Lothur stopped beating it to check if the opponent had died, its frightening regeneration showed how terrible demons could be.
"If you can't die like this, I only have one alternative left!" Lothur said this as he saw the little smile at the corner of that creature's lips.
With that, he activated his bloodline, showing sothing surprising to that being!
