Chapter 6 6. The Best Demon Hunter! [2]
"Kreee!"
Splurt- thud-
"AHHHHH! Help me!"
Splurt-
"Chieftain!! It's a demon raid!"
Clank- clank-
"Andrew!! Help!"
Thud-
"Ahhhh!!!"
"Kreeee!"
…
"huff… huff… fuck I am weak… ha!"
Thap-
Bam!
"Ha… ha…"
Andrew was fighting with as many demons as possible.
All the fighters in the town were defending the town and stalling time, to let people flee.
Andrew, chieftain, John, every person was fighting to the death.
But no matter how many demons they killed, there was no end.
It was complete chaos, people were screaming for help everywhere but how can he help?
His hands were already full of crushing, cutting, and killing demons that were attacking him.
"Andrew! I think they have a Barron-level demon with them!"
Chieftain shouted.
"B-Barron!?"
Everyone who heard this lost their will to fight.
A Barron was not someone they could fight after all. Demons were already five times stronger than normal humans, with each level demons gain intelligence, and a Barron demon is as intelligent as a normal strategist.
That means the Barron demon had planned this raid from the very beginning and was waiting for the opportunity.
All the screeching demons were lowly demons, who can be killed easily.
There were four greater demons and one Barron.
As if to confirm their disbelief, a domineering presence entered the battlefield with a burst of demonic laughter.
"HAHAHAHAHA~"
"Feed me fear! Heed my orders! And give your lives so that I can become a viscount sooner~
HAHAHAHAHAH~"
A black muscular humanoid figure jumped in front of Andrew and the others. It had two small dark horns, black skin, and a near-human appearance.
These were the only people, Barron found worth his attention. If these few people were not dealt with, then his army might get annihilated.
Once Barron's presence was detected all the four higher demons arrived and knelt.
"Keep women alive, kill everyone else and take their blood."
The Barron ordered without batting an eye to his servants.
"I will take that boy as my servant, do whatever you like with the insects."
He ordered.
His interest was in Andrew, who was slaying demons as if they were flies.
His methods were gruesome and crude, that is why Barron wanted to keep Andrew.
If he corrupts Andrew, he will get the strongest servant any Barron amongst his peers ever had.
"Like hell."
Andrew mumbled and pulled his sword out of the sheath and pointed towards the Barron.
"HOH~ I will love to play with you~"
The demon was calm, he was overconfident in his abilities.
He was young and a genius demon.
He was a higher demon since birth and broke through the third circle just five years after becoming an adult.
A true demon prodigy.
"Ha!"
Andrew covered the distance in a split second and slashed his sword.
The demon expected Andrew to be strong but this was out of his expectations.
Caught off guard the demon sustained some minor injury over his chest, but it got regenerated in a minute.
"You bastard!"
The demon fumed in anger, it was humiliating for him to get damage from a human.
He had to pay back.
"Agh!!!"
But the demon was too late, as Andrew attacked him once again. This time his sword was imbued with some green hue around it.
Andrew used his special attack 'wind slash', by imbuing the wind affinity over his sword for a second or so, he successfully severed the demon's left arm.
The demon cried in agony.
Although he had regeneration, he can't regrow his lost arm, until he becomes a demon king or is helped by a higher dark priest or priestess.
"You will pay with your life! I will torment you before I kill you!"
The demon Barron kept shouting.
His dark muscular body was giving out a suffocating aura for those with low levels around.
His small horns started growing. He was using his Barron form.
"Tch."
Andrew clicked his tongue, he knew that he missed the opportunity to kill the demon and the demon will now fight seriously.
His advantage was gone.
Once a demon breaks through the higher rank and becomes a Barron, that demon forms a core inside its body.
Barron rank demon cannot move the core away anywhere except his heart.
That is why he attacked the left side of the demon with his all power, but the demon was way stronger than Andrew.
Even if distracted it was still a Barron rank demon, he subconsciously avoided the danger.
Andrew prepared himself for the final battle.
"I think today I will finally meet my family."
Andrew said and took an offensive stance. His eyes filled with killing intent.
"But before that… let me take you with me… in the afterlife!"
Andrew charged forward.
***
Far from this chaos, a horse was running to its full power.
"Fuck!! Please faster!"
Slap-
"Kii-hihihih!"
The horse cried and increased its speed once again.
'Please Andrew! Stall some time! I am coming!'
A boy with blue hair and blue eyes, white skin, muscular build, and a height of around 6 feet 2 inches begged God for the safety of his villagers while riding the horse.
Kevin was still bleeding from his previous injury but he did not care.
Right now the most important part was to reach the town and help the defenders.
…
Some time passed and Kevin saw the entrance of the town, he once again raced the horse.
Noticing the dead bodies of his villagers his heart sank.
Whether it be children, elders, or women, bodies were lying around everywhere.
All the children who came to send him off for his journey had their heads severed from their bodies. Their faces had a horrified look on them.
Kevin was not able to keep up with this gruesome and heart-aching scene.
"Brghwaaa."
He puked…
The smell of rotten smell of flesh, blood, and dead bodies lying around.
Tears started forming in Kevin's eyes.
"Why..?"
He asked while looking at the sky.
His beloved family, villagers, and his best friend they all were…
"Wait…"
Kevin's face darkened.
In all the piles of dead bodies, his family and Andrew's body were not there.
He panicked and started running across the field.
It was then he heard something.
Splurt-
"Ugh!"
Kevin turned his head and saw the scene unfolding in front of him.
"I told you puny human, it's futile."
A black muscular figure with two big horns held a man by his neck and spoke.
"Now I have to pay the debt for my left hand."
The figure said and pulled the human's right hand.
The power was so tremendous that the hand was removed from the shoulders.
"UGH!!"
The human cried in pain.
"No matter how gravely injured you are, once I turn you into my servant, you will regrow the limbs~
So let me pay the debt with interest~"
Saying this the demonic figure pulled the human's left arm and right leg at the same time.
"HAHAHAHA~ your resistance is excellent~ I want you to be my pet!"
The demonic figure burst out laughing.
…
Kevin who saw this pissed in his pants.
"A-Andrew…"
He mumbled when he recognized the human, who was biting his tongue to not give the demon, the pleasure of tormenting him.
Andrew was hanging between life and death.
Kevin snapped out of his stupor and realized it was not the time to be a coward.
He touched his waist and realized.
"Shit."
He forgot his sword in the carriage.
