Chapter 107: The Cult of Amaymon Part 7

Gray invested himself in trying to think of different ways for him to gain actual combat skills without wasting too much time. Though the idea of merely gaining combat experience through continuous battle seemed like the most obvious answer, it was also the most likely to get him killed. If there ever came a day where he would have to fight someone on Gazef’s level, he wouldn’t live to enjoy the experience he had gained from such a battle. He had gotten luckty in the past, but if he continued he was certain that he would one day meet his end. After pondering on the subject for a few hours he fell asleep.

*Knock* *Knock*

Gray woke up with a start, reflexively creating a blood pistol in his right hand.

“Who the fuck is knocking on my door at this hour?” complained Gray as it was already dusk. He quickly dismissed the blood pistol before going to open the door.

“The demons are attacking the western gates. Captain Ailre has requested that you lead a squad on a capture mission during this battle. You are to capture one demonic beast intact and bring it back to the base. Your men are waiting downstairs,” announced the officer, not even giving Gray enough time to fully open the door.

“My weapons,” is all he said, before walking passed the officer towards Tesse’s room. By the time he got downstairs, both he and Tesse’s weapons and horses had been prepared. A small group of troops were waiting for him, the squad consisted of five men and two women. Based on the irritated look on their faces as Gray approached them, it was clear they were bothered by the thought of being led by a vampire, though Gray couldn’t care any less.

“I’ll only give you one order tonight, and that’s to not get in my way,” announced Gray as he placed his swords over his back, before getting on his horse.

{Now time to blow off some steam,} he thought excitedly, as he was led towards the western gates.

By the time they got to there, they found that the area was completely infested with demonic beasts. Though the elves outnumbered them 5 to 1, they still seemed to be struggling quite a bit as the ground was littered with dozens more elves than demonic beast remains. The beasts had a feline type body structure, only they were three times bigger than a tiger, and were devoid of fur. Their flesh hung out exposed, putting to display their powerful muscles while at the same time making them look even more terrifying than they would've otherwise.

“So what’s the plan?” asked one of the men in Gray’s squad as the sound of battle rung all around them.

“The plan?” murmured Gray, his focus drawn to the battle around them.

“Yes, the plan. I was told that you were an expert on demons. That means you should know of some way to capture them right?”

“Yea, it's really simple. Just beat them up until they can’t move anymore,” replied Gray, once again most of his attention else where. Seeing as Gray was going to be of no help, the elves decided to go off on their own, mumbling out a string of insults as they rode their horses past his.

“Master shouldn’t we get going as well?” asked Tesse, though the way she was looking at the group of elves, it was a wonder whether she would be going after them or the demonic beasts.

“No, we’re going to stay here and watch. We can learn a lot from just watching,” replied Gray. His earlier loss had taught him not to be too hasty, besides demonic beasts were a new enemy to him, he was unsure how they fought or behaved and therefore needed some intel before engaging them.

{This is going to be tricky,} thought Gray as he noticed that the demonic beasts had a very strong healing factor. It seemed that the only way to kill them was to behead them, but that was easier said than done as the demonic creatures had cat-like maneuverability, allowing them to dodge most attacks that came their way.

“You brought the [T-1 anti-tank rifle] right?” asked Gray.

“Y-Yes master,” replied Tesse, though she was a bit hesitant. She was uncertain about her ability to hit such a fast moving target.

“I don’t expect you to shoot any of them. Even a trained marksmen would find it a near impossible task to hit such a fast target under such dim lighting,” commented Gray, though to him everything was clear as day. Ever since he had become a demon, his eyes narually adjusted at night, but lately his night vision had gotten even better than before.

“Hand it over,” ordered Gray, gesturing for her to hand over the gun. After unstrapping the rifle from the right side of her horse, she handed it over to Gray. Gray quickly replaced the [corruption rune] with the [earth shatter enchantment rune] before giving it back to Tesse.

“You see that spot over there, the one with the dead body?” asked Gray, pointing towards an open spot on the battlefield with a single dead elf.

“I’ll lure one of them there and you’ll blow a hole in the ground. The earth shatter enchantment should be able to create substantial damage to the ground, especially when combined with the anti-tank rifle. Also, don’t worry about hitting me, I’ll be expecting your shot,” said Gray, before jumping off his horse.

“Start setting up, I’ll give you a few minutes to prepare yourself before I get the beast in place…”

{…but first, I need a few… sacrifices.}

Gray spotted a group of troops fighting a particularly large demonic beast. It seemed that a considerable number of elven troops had died trying to fell the creature, as a large number of corpses were piled all around the beast.

[System Information]

Demonic Beasts

Beasts of the underworld that have taken mortal form. Using sacrifices as both a means to summon the spirit of these beasts and provide a flesh vessel, demon worshippers call upon them to do their bidding. Also known as the puppies of hell, these creatures were originally created by Ashahet as a gift to Amaymon. Though after centuries of experimentation and some help from his older sister, he found a way to summon them to the moral plane. 

They have a very high regeneration rate, and can only be killed by either completely destroying their body, or separating their control core (which is located in their head) from the rest of their body. 

Many times in ancient texts have these beasts caused the fall of advanced civilization as their reproductive rates are the highest of any demonic monster. If left alone for too long, they could outnumber a native population of animals within mere months.
