I looked at the ground, where that crimson rune was holding us in place. I used my earth elent, trying to manipulate the rune, in order to escape.
"You don’t have to struggle; there is no way out." The demoness walked up to us, staring right into my eyes.
No matter how otherworldly her charm was, I couldn’t fall for it a second ti. I activate my void eyes in order to see if they would let cross this invisible blockade created by this rune.
As I activated the eyes of the void, the surroundings instantly fell into absolute darkness, and multiple silver strings ca into my view. A huge net was ford around ; these silver strings were specifically woven into a trap around . Its density was higher compared to that of the one covering the entire sky.
"Rick~" I heard Emi’s voice. She was looking at our surroundings with shock and fear. I saw her hand passing through my body, as if I wasn’t even present there.
"Impossible..." I saw the shock on the demoness’s face as she began to look around as if searching for soone.
"How could he escape..." I was able to see clear tension on the demoness as if, finally, sothing had gone beyond her plan. Since appearing with my ghost army, nothing really made an impact on her. Yet, now she was getting worried.
By now, I was sure that void eyes didn’t just let see the entire world in black shadows and silver strings; they also made invisible.
I lifted my hands to touch Emi a few tis, but it simply passed through her body. I was able to freely move around, these silver strings, so I guessed that the thicker net of silver strings caging shouldn’t be a problem.
I stretched my finger, trying to pass through it. Indeed, my finger simply passed through the silver strings without any hurdle. I was an illusory ghost within this dark world filled with silver strings. I could pass through anything, but the drawbacks were clear; I couldn’t touch anything.
At the end, this skill was good for escape, but only for myself. I couldn’t take Emi with , so most of the use cases of it were limited.
I walked out of the trap that she had made for , standing right in front of her. Yet, she couldn’t see . I was completely invisible to her. I wanted to use this surprise elent to end the battle with one shot. I used my newly gained berserk skill, which ca from that demonic ape.
My height changed, reaching almost 8 feet within a second, and the muscles in my body ca out more prominently. My nails grew taller, and from hand to feet, with my teeth becoming sharper. I could clearly feel the enhancent this form brought . The good thing was that I didn’t turn into a giant monkey, which I was expecting to be.
I opened my system panel to see how good the increase was in the number.
[Physique:94/100 ( 50)]
The growth in my physique was almost of 50%, maybe that was the quality difference between an average ruler grade monster and a top-tier ruler grade monster. I got this slim body retained despite the boost in strength. I wasn’t compromising my speed and agility for strength.
"It looks like he ran away. Girl, tell , now do you regret waking him up from my charm?" Demoness was trying to manipulate Emi, but I didn’t let myself be distracted. I got this chance, and I needed it to be my best shot possible.
I was thinking about the best combo possible that I could use. With my current talents, all I could think of was hellfire plus wind elent. I didn’t know if the Wings of Dead had any offensive capabilities. Well, it’s not like I have a way to utilise any of my talent to the fullest; I still just work on instinct and basic control.
I will think about learning skills later, but for now, I looked at Emi, who was standing within the crimson rune all alone. There wasn’t any tear in her eyes; she stood within the rune without worry, but I could feel that she was panicking. She was trying her best to maintain her composure. She didn’t join the conversation with the demoness.
I raised my hand high above, ready to smash her head in one sweep. When my hand was just an inch away from her head, I deactivated my void eyes. I stepped into the real world, leaving almost no ti for her to dodge. Hellfire burst out from my claws.
Emi was instantly shocked by my appearance. Behind the demoness, those purple flas burst from my hands, instantly confirming for her that this giant demon was her dear brother.
Boom!
The demoness’ reaction was way too slow for her to dodge this blow, which I had roughly guessed. She was good at curses and charm, so her physique should be her weak point, according to the laws of webnovels.
It worked out; her head instantly exploded, like a waterlon. Making a perfect aura farming mont for , the one that I had been looking for since I revealed my powers to Emi.
The demoness’s body was standing in front of , headless. The blood was flowing out of her neck. The one who had turned an entire city into ruins was dead. Her head blasted apart in the midst of her ascension ritual. The ease of this win was unbelievable for .
Emi was staring at without even blinking her eyes; there was clear shock on her face. She wasn’t expecting to pull a move like this. I guess she would have been thinking she already knew all of my moves, but now she knew her big brother was more powerful and mysterious than he appeared. The perfect effect I wanted through this win, though I wasn’t expecting it to be this simple.
When I thought it was over, her headless body suddenly turned towards . Her pale hand wrapped around . The blue blood was still seeping out from her neck, and I was unable to react. My body was frozen in one place.
