Chapter 76: The Gauntlets

Among all the adventurers in the battle, only Alexis did considerable damage to the demon. 

Among the dozens, only she was able to crack his dark matter armor. 

Among all the people he had fought in the past years, the half-dragon was the only one who managed to put fear into him as well.

"I'm an S-Class, disgusting being!" She shouted as she smiled and then punched the monster in the face.

Its entire back dug deep into the stone floor of the place, thus making the entire garden shake and wobble. The castle stood on the edge of a very deep ravine and was certainly not a place built for battles of such intensity.

Even though she felt everything shaking, the woman didn't stop striking. TUM! TUM! TUM! Her hand didn't even touch the demon's skin, because the gauntlet was like an aura, which prevented this.

Although she was slaughtering a demon, internally she was angrier at herself, for once again not being strong enough to protect weak people.

With each blow, she dealt, another massacre that she couldn't avoid came up in her thoughts.

'Shit, shit, shit, shit...' These feelings made the girl slow down by milliseconds, and this occasioned a desperate counterattack from the demon. Dark matter stuck to the black gauntlet during one of the punches and spread throughout the half-dragon's body, consuming her. 

Just as before, this thing took the shape of a sphere and began to float. From inside the object, Alexis punched several times with the <Life Wedge> gauntlet and used <Divine Blast> even though it was in an enclosed place, which made it crack even more.

"I didn't want to have to dispose of something so incomparable, but I have no choice." The man spoke and then began to guide the ball with one hand while standing up with difficulty with the other.

When the ball reached above the cliff, he opened his left palm, and then the object plummeted at high speed. 

Luke climbed the wreckage of the castle wall in time to see this scene and, without a second thought, he used the sword-throwing stance he knew and hurled Nathalia's spear toward the monster.

The Daughter of Hades slashed towards the demon and... Péimm! He managed to hold the handle of the spear so that only the sharp point flickered near Jean's thin nose.

"What did you do with it?" The half-wolf inquired, sliding down with the help of the dust on the rubble. The concealing effect of the elixir given by Alexis had worn off, so his fuzzy ears were exposed.

The demon straightened his spine, turned the spear, and drove the blade into the ground. Without saying a single word, he just smiled briefly and used his left hand to call Luke into battle.

Then Luke ran toward the demon and when he got close, he kicked with his left leg from the bottom up.

Skillfully, the monster used the spear to shift its own body to the side. The weight of its body spanned the sturdy rod, and when the monster released the spear, the rod came back and hit the half-wolf's face. 

To react to this, Luke used <Vind> in the direction of his opponent. 

Floshh! The demon was repelled and so was the half-wolf, due to the strength of the magic that seemed to get stronger and more concentrated. 

As luck would have it, Luke still managed to be quick enough to touch the spear and brought it back to the orb state, which was the portable mode of the Panspermia Weapons.

Zisssh! The half-wolf's worn shoes slipped on the fine dust that now covered the garden floor.

"Hey! Where am I?" Luke heard a voice question him. He looked forward and it was Jean who asked. The sparkles in his eyes were there this time.

Summoning the spear again, the fuzzy-eared man inquired: 

"What is your name?" 

"M-my name? I am Jean Pollo, of the Noble House Pollo...can you tell me where I am?"

"Pollo... I understand... now I will know who to send the body to when we are done here. Thank you, demon." Luke said, smiling audaciously.

The expression of confusion immediately vanished from Jean's face at that moment, as did the glow in his yellowing pupils, giving way to the same faded expression as before.

"You have good instincts." 

Luke raised his spear and placed it behind the back of his head, in that same relaxed pose he joked: "My sense of smell allows me to sense weak spirits."

In a way, the half-wolf knew that the demon was using its last strength because it took a lot of damage from Alexis and since it didn't seem to have an ability to regenerate itself, it's the best chance to get out alive would be to run over Luke or throw itself over the cliff, where Alexis was probably still alive.

In a risky move, the creature raised his left arm, and once again the magic circles began to form on his palm. Since Luke didn't know what this was, he decided he should try to stop it before it could conclude.

Three magic circles quickly appeared on his palm, overlapping each other and forming a kind of tower. These circles got bigger and bigger, and when the fifth one appeared, the half-wolf was still a little more than a meter away. 

TROOOOOOMMMM! TROOMMMMM! TROOM! These three explosions echoed for miles, even reaching the ears of people walking in downtown Vasconcelos.

"Cof... Cof..." Luke coughed up blood beside the rocks he was thrown at. 'How the hell am I still alive?' He wondered, looking at the damage done by the demon's ability.

All around him, there were shards of glass scattered all over the floor, and it wasn't hard to see with a glance upward that several of the castle's pointed towers had been incinerated. 

When the half-wolf heard footsteps coming toward him amidst the haze of dust created, he quickly found the strength to get up. 

Using the <Normal Inventory> skill, he picked up a vial of simple life potion and took it, while taking off his black coat, remaining only in a white shirt and butterfly tie. 

"You're still alive... Look, that's surprising." said the demon, emerging among the smoke, this time with only his right arm in one piece, because all that was left of his left arm after the explosion was a bit of flesh and a fraction of his humerus.

"Let's finish this soon..." Luke spoke, smiling wearily.
