Chapter 18: Chapter 17 – Inferior Demons.

"Are you kidding me? Do I have to stay in this place for 22 hours? You know, I need water." Lukas said to the system but was completely ignored. Then he got up and started walking again.

He was looking for something different. Since it was a desert, there had to be an oasis somewhere, right? But Lukas wondered if it was possible for something like that to exist here since the ground was covered with earth and not with sand.

"As I figured, the system couldn't be kind." Lukas laughed and then wiped the sweat on his face. Then he removed his shirt and tied it over his head. "I never imagined I would ever do that in my life."

Then he took a deep breath and continued walking.

He walked in a straight line for almost an hour before he felt something in his surroundings. It was strange. It was as if he was in danger even though he was completely isolated in that place. Lukas looked around and could not find anything, but all his senses were alert.

Not only his senses but the system as well.

"What?" Lukas remembered what had happened during the event. His eyes widened, and nervousness hit him immediately.

Then a strong wind began. Earth began to fly towards Lukas' face, causing him to protect them. He put his arms in front of his face as a giant whirlwind of the earth formed.

"WHAT THE HELL! SHIT, SHIT!" Lukas ran away from that place. He knew that staying there would turn him into prey to whatever was would coming out of the portal that was being opened.

As he ran, he looked back and saw the swirl of the earth come out of the ground and begin to mix with some black clouds that appeared in the sky. After a few minutes, a large black portal was formed.

In addition, the sky had turned completely dark. It was as if it was going to rain at any moment.

Lukas was tired. He finally stopped running.

After stopping, he turned around and looked at where the portal had appeared. Monsters began to be spat out of the portal. They fell to the ground and soon after got up with difficulty.

They all looked like zombies, but only in their way of walking. They were not like zombies; their bodies were completely black. They all looked like humans covered in petroleum; their eyes were red and could be seen from a distance.

Lukas noticed that they were targeting him. Then he started walking again.

"System, what monsters are these?"

[ They are demons ]

"Demons? I thought demons had a more humanoid body. These guys look like they're 'melted'"

[ They are inferior demons. Would you like an explanation? ]

"Not now, dammit!" Lukas continued to walk away as he looked back. It was a flat place; the demons could see him. Lukas' eyes met with the eyes of some demons.

It was a little terrifying.

The demons walked slowly, so if Lukas kept walking, he wouldn't get caught.

But it would be challenging to keep up the pace for almost 20 hours.

As before, Lukas began to feel calmer than ever.

The system was manipulating him. A few seconds after his sanity was restored and Lukas felt like he had just come out of a relaxing massage, a new message appeared.

[ Note: The Inferior Demons are extremely weak. The user will be able to face them with ease. ]

[ Note: The system recommends that the user seize the opportunity ]

"Seize the opportunity, you say?" Lukas laughed out loud. Then put on a serious look on his face and looked at the demons crawling across the earth.

"For some reason, I got excited." Such a sudden change could not be something natural.

Lukas took a deep breath and then took the shirt off his head and put it back on. After that, he punched his own hand to experience his new strength. "Now I can feel some change."

The corner of his mouth lifted, and then he stuck his hands in his pants pockets and began to breathe deeply.

He waited for the demons to approach.

"Right. I don't have the dagger with me, and I can't control my telekinesis very well. Pyrotechnics are also out of the question. I still don't have full control, and your current strength is completely useless."

Lukas started to take a few steps forward when he noticed that the demons were only 100 meters away. It was a big army, maybe more than 50 of them? But for some reason, his confidence was high.

"I'll have to use my fists."  Lukas closed his fists and then stopped walking again.

Gaaaa~~~

Guu~~~

EEGGC~~~

Making strange sounds, some demons only 20 meters away raised their two hands, trying to grab him.

Lukas took a deep breath, removed his hands from his pocket and raised his fists, getting into an offensive stance.  "Come on." Lukas took two steps forward, punched the nearest demon in the face, and took a few steps back.

[ You killed an 'Inferior Demon' ]

Lukas transformed the demon's head into 'nothing'. Its head had exploded like a water bladder. After it died, its body completely melted. On top of the puddle of "petroleum", a black flame appeared.

Lukas' eyebrows rose, and a smile appeared on his face soon after.

Then he took a few more steps forward and threw another punch at the nearest demon.

[ You killed an 'Inferior Demon' ]

As if boxing, Lukas approached, punched, and then moved away. The demons, which looked like walking amoebas that couldn't attack and just walked towards him, were rapidly decreasing in number.

[ You killed an 'Inferior Demon' ]

[ You Killed an 'Inferior Demon' ]

[ You Killed an 'Inferior Demon' ]

One after another, all had their heads blown off by Lukas' fists.
