Chapter 100 Heated.
Shanka and his team looked at how big the demon was, but they didn't care about it because they were confident that they could defeat him. They knew about the demon being radioactive because of the nuclear radiation, but it wasn't a problem for both Shanka and Zahra.
"I'll start," Shanka said as he walked to the front with the staff in his hand.
Shanka pointed the staff at the demon and then he took a deep breath as he closed his eyes. The thick clouds from the eruptions slowly were being pushed away and then the sun started to shine brightly. The demon and Dimitri looked at the sun and realized how odd it was for the sky suddenly to become bright.
"As long as there's a sun..." Shanka paused as he slowly opened his eyes. "You're no match for me," Shanka continued and sent a sun ray right onto the demon.
The demon was caught in flames in almost an instant, and that made Dimitri fall back because it was really hot. Anzel and the others were screaming at Shanka because Sasha was inside the demon's body. It was already too late, and Shanka didn't care about Sasha since he didn't know who she was.
The demon realized it wasn't just a normal fire and he started to feel the burn and sting all over his body. He watched as his skin cracked and started to melt like fat being burned on the stove.
Everyone was speechless that Shanka was that powerful, and to see the demon in pain was really amazing. Han Suk-Jin's army also got affected by the flame and to his surprise, his army couldn't handle the heat and melted into their original form, the slimes.
"It's my turn now..." Zahra said as she rolled her sleeves and showed the tattoos on her arms.
The giant tiger and the falcon came out of her arms, and slowly regained their original size. They were bigger than the immortal warrior that Han Suk-Jin created, and then they started to run and fly toward the demon.
The tiger bit the demon's leg and managed to take a big chunk of his flesh in a single pull. The falcon managed to tear and rip the skin and flesh off the demon's stomach with its sharp claws and beak.
"Why hesitate? Bring out everything," Shanka said as he glanced at Zahra.
"All of them?" Zahra asked underneath the white mask that covered half of her face.
"Yes. We still have to go back and help Khai, Rash, and Akila near the portal," Shanka answered as he nodded his head.
Zahra ripped her black harem pants and it shocked everyone as they immediately looked away. When they stole a glance at Zahra's legs, they saw a cobra tattoo on her left leg and a greyhound tattoo on her right leg.
A cobra and a black greyhound appeared right in front of her, and they also regained their original size. The cobra slithered and in every trail it left behind, it left sands made of gold. The greyhound had its tail split in half on the end, and they were so sharp that whenever it wagged its tail, it cut everything like paper.
When everyone thought she was done, she suddenly removed her black dress and left her upper body exposed. She covered her chest with her arms and showed the tattoo on her back that looked like a griffin with the wings covering her shoulders and all the way to the front of her body.
The tattoo disappeared and a black shadow appeared right above her, slowly transforming into a creature like on the tattoo. It was a sphinx that was three times bigger than the statue in Egypt with a woman's head with a headdress that covered her hair. When she spread her wings, she looked bigger than before making everyone stand there and be stunned by her size.
"Go," Zahra said as she put back on her dress.
The three creatures moved so quickly that they created havoc on their surroundings. All five of Zahra's creatures were attacking the demon, and weirdly enough they weren't affected by the flame.
Sun Wukong looked at Shanka and Zahra with a smirk, and then he swung his golden staff around. He looked fired up because he realized there were so many powerful Awakeners that he didn't know.
"It won't be fair if you're the only ones who are in the spotlight. I want to join as well!" Sun Wukong said as he giggled.
Shanka and Zahra glanced at him without showing any expression. Nobody could tell what kind of expression they made in the first place because of the cloth that covered their faces. They then saw Sun Wukong stabbing his staff on the ground as he stared back at them with a huge grin on his face.
"In my case..." Sun Wukong paused as he walked to the front of his staff. "Size doesn't matter!" Sun Wukong continued as he pulled his hands back and grabbed the top of his staff.
Sun Wukong pulled his staff and it slowly grew bigger and longer every nanosecond. The moment he swung his staff down to the front, the end of the staff was already reaching the demon's head. The momentum was enough to send the demon down to his knees and the ground shook fiercely.
He swung his staff again and it came back to its original size in an instant. He kept swinging his staff and when he was about to swing his staff horizontally, the staff stretched again and hit the demon's head from the left side. The demon was sent to the ground and he was the only one who could send the demon to his knees and to the ground.
Everyone's mouths were wide open and they couldn't believe what they had just witnessed. Shanka and Zahra were indeed amazing, but Sun Wukong was the one who knocked the demon down. But he didn't stop there, he kept smashing the demon with his staff until suddenly he accidentally hit Zahra's creatures.
"Oops..." Sun Wukong chuckled as if he did that on purpose.
"You think it's funny?" Shanka asked as he looked at Sun Wukong with a deadly stare.
"No, of course not!" Sun Wukong kept chuckling as he covered his mouth.
Zahra looked so pissed that she wanted to punch Sun Wukong in the face, but Shanka stopped her. But seeing how Sun Wukong started to laugh made Shanka a bit pissed and annoyed. He then stared at the sun and was about to give Sun Wukong a lesson, but then Han Suk-Jin summoned an immortal warrior right in front of him.
"You did the same thing to my army. Let's call it even," Han Suk-Jin said.
"Summoning this thing in front of me? Are you trying to threaten me?" Shanka asked and stared at Han Suk-Jin. "You do realize that I don't have to use the same power to handle people like you? I can just do this and take your life," Shanka created spikes and pierced the immortal warrior until it couldn't move a single muscle.
"I can do the same," Han Suk-Jin said as he stealthily summoned one right behind Shanka.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Enough!" Magnus shouted. "What are you guys doing?! We still haven't defeated that demon and you already make an enemy?" Magnus asked.
"What's the matter? Let them play. In the first place, we are never an ally," Dimitri said as he walked past Magnus. "We, the World League fighting against you, the Guilds of the World. So, you have no reason to stop them," Dimitri added as he turned around and looked at Magnus.
The atmosphere became heavier the moment Dimitri said that, and currently they were outnumbered. Knowing how powerful Dimitri was and how Lazarus couldn't hurt him made him lose already. In fact, Dimitri alone would be enough to fight them all, and maybe only Shanka could stop him.
As they were thinking about what they were going to do next, the demon roared and it was the loudest one so far. A shockwave traveled through them and sent them all flying. The volcanoes erupted again and the tsunami formed and it was bigger than before.
"Dying from humans?! I won't let that happen!" The demon screamed as he stood up. "All of you will die by my hands!" He continued as he slammed his hands on the ground.
The earthquake made the whole ground crumble and everyone was falling down and buried under the ground. The demon didn't stop slamming his hands and released beams to destroy everything he saw. He was furious and had enough of playing around with them. Your next journey awaits at empire
"Death is what you will get! And I'm the one who will give it to you!" The demon said as he stomped the ground, over and over until the ground was like a pool of water being stomped by feet, waving like water.
"Yeah? But you forget that I'm still here, alive..." Sasha said as she stood right in front of the demon's beating heart.
