Chapter 1665 Pandemonium"s Fears

-----

The seventh Monster wave was summoned, and Pandemonium was fully focused on his task of destroying all the monsters. He commanded three hundred demons to kill them, but the monsters, with each wave, were progressively becoming stronger, to the point they were becoming even matches to the Demonic Beasts, the easiest for him to summon.

Demons that possessed intelligence were much more complex to summon and required more Mental Strength and Soul Input, something that Pandemonium had to manage carefully if he didn"t want to become insane and lose his mind due to his endless Demonic Energy.

"These d.a.m.n monsters…" he gritted his teeth. "If I could, I would just step there and kill them all myself!"

He stood up from his castle, standing above the rooftop and resisting the impulse to jump into the battle. Instead, he just did the second-best thing, expanding his Demonic Domain and distorting s.p.a.ce itself, tearing it apart with mere waves of his hands.

This was the power of Pandemonium"s own existence, a being that disrupted the order of reality itself, although he was only a few of his fragments, and therefore he couldn"t alter his surroundings and destroy them as much as before.

But at the very least, he could do this.

TRUUUMMM!!!

The empty s.p.a.ce trembled, two enormous claw-shaped holes surged on the empty s.p.a.ce, as the empty air was torn apart, creating a vacuum that started absorbing the monsters inside. Their screams echoed through the battlefield as he quickly unleashed cutting waves of crimson red demonic energy.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Hundreds of monsters died within a split second, their bodies cut into pieces fell over the demonic army, as Pandemonium let his demons feed on them to get stronger.

"Eat, get stronger, this is not over yet… Seven hours have pa.s.sed though," his sharp eyes glared elsewhere. "Have those useless b.a.s.t.a.r.ds done something yet?"

His sharp demonic eyes looked into the far distance, rapidly augmenting the scene until he could see everything he wanted. However, the scene was more bizarre than he had imagined. After spending hours grinding Score Points here, fully concentrated on playing along with this stupid game, he thought he could come back to this battlefield and see the results of his efforts.

But that couldn"t be far from the truth, almost his entire demon army that had gone to Drake and Surtr"s territories were already completely ma.s.sacred, not only that but the Demon Generals, one of his trump cards, were nowhere to be seen.

Three of them were completely missing, and the other three… Weren"t anywhere?

"What… What"s happening?" he muttered. "Where are they- Ugh?!"

Yet he suddenly felt a slightly sharp pain, like a needle piercing his skin, it wasn"t that alarming, but it was sharp and noticeable. He felt something, a connection breaking, a thread being torn. His demonic eyes concentrated towards where Drake"s territory was located.

"T-This b.a.s.t.a.r.d… How did he…?!"

Pandemonium had been constantly surprised by what Drake had become capable of doing in so little time since he first met him, but once more, he managed to surprise the ancient demon and leave him flabbergasted.

"He killed my demon generals without closing the Demon Gate?!" he muttered. "How is that…?!"

Before he could ask more questions, Pandemonium quickly realized a large amount of his powers were being constantly drained away towards Drake too, he noticed a giant demonic tree floating above the skies of his territory.

"What is that thing? And why my powers are being drained?"

Through his long life as a destroyed and king of all demons, Pandemonium had never experienced this level of shock before. In that very moment, did he feel fear?

Fear of a power he couldn"t understand, one that could match him.

The same sensation he felt when he confronted that man.

That being.

That thing…

"Hah, why am I even imagining him as Oblivion? That lizard couldn"t even compare to that thing…" Pandemonium smiled. "No, this b.a.s.t.a.r.d…"

He quickly noticed what was happening, the other three Demon Generals he sent.

"So that"s what happened, that"s not his doing, isn"t it?" he muttered, without even flinching about learning that Drake ate three of his Demon Generals and was controlling another three using the powers of someone else, all while using their connection to drain as much demonic energy as possible. "He has some rather mysterious friends out there, was it that girl? Or that woman? Or that guy… Ah, he"s surrounded by so many idiots, I couldn"t care less."

He waved his hand, deactivating the connection the lasting three Demon generals had with his Demon Gate. Although deep down he was completely furious, Pandemonium made sure to remain calm and composed.

"Rage won"t bring me anywhere… It was the very reason why I was caught by him and cut into pieces…" he sighed. "I"ll do this slowly, enjoy while you can, lizard. Once we can finally met face to face… I"ll rip your entire body apart."

His demonic eyes calmed down; his rage slowly being compressed within his Demonic Heart. The draconic powers, made out of the pieces of dragons used to reconstruct the rest of his body melded with his own strength.

"I might as well have some fun and use this power, no?" he smiled, touching the Red Orb fragment within his forehead. "After all, it"s this whole thing that"s keeping my pieces together…"

With a wicked smile, demonic, draconic, and divine flames converged together. The Red Orb Fragment conjured their powers, this was the piece of the Primordial G.o.d of Fire and s.p.a.ce, Logi.

Naturally, it enhanced Pandemonium"s primary elements, Fire and s.p.a.ce, which he had already used and showcased before.

"The Flame Emperor was smart using this crystal as a catalyzer, it works so well…" he laughed. "I"ll make sure to avenge your death, useless old man… No matter what that lizard can do, he"s going to die an agonizing death. I"ll crush his soul and devour it."

However, for now, giant spiraling towers of demonic and draconic flames surged from the ground around his territory, the eighth Monster Wave was arriving, and he greeted them with a lot of fireworks.

BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
