Chapter 1093 Demon Vs Muscles


"Your mother might have given you something to sleep through the turmoil, but she could not save you from the arrows raining down on her," said Haldor as he tried to wipe away the tears. "Although your mother did not know me, I was one of the orphans she raised in Xeloria. I ran to her side and tried to save her, but she asked me to save you instead."


"My mother… she died that night…" said Luna as she staggered back. "She was not killed by a demon… she was killed by…"


"A demon," answered the hunter with resolution. "Marshal Stormblade is a demon who would do anything to get what he wanted. I took you as a child and ran into the forest, but it was not long before the scouts came. As they were closing in on us, I reached this camp and hid here."


As Haldor was telling his story, the cries from the battlefield grew more intense. Elinor held Luna, gave her a nod, and then guided her away as Haldor resumed his story with a determined face.


"At that time, the Chief was already banished and had no one else. Lord Marshal did not allow him to form a group outside of Xeloria, but when I stumbled to this camp, he seized you from me and traded you to form this hunters group."


Luna heard the story with tears in her eyes, falling down uncontrollably as she realized that even on the night she lost her mother, she was still being used as a tool.


"The Huntsmen Clan formed on that night, and Lord Marshal got his hand on his daughter, locking her away from sight for a long time. At that time, the Chief said that I was his follower to make Marshal spare me. Ever since then, I became a hunter here to repay that debt."


"I did not want to believe it when he told me all of this," said his wife with sadness as she pulled her away. "However, although we were indebted toward him, we too realized his evil plans and what he wanted to do to you."


"All this time, I thought that I finally managed to run away," said Luna with tears falling down her eyes. "I enjoyed the morning sun and the cold breeze of night, but I was just in a different prison, awaiting slaughter. How can I run away when the one person who did not treat me like this is now killing himself to save me?"


"That demon is not in his right man at the moment," said Haldor with a determined expression. "If he manages to survive, then we can…"


"Where do you think you are going, Haldor?!" shouted a voice from the sky, propelling the three to look above them. In the setting sun and through the giant moon descended a figure with a fur cape and two axes. In some way, the Chief was now pursuing them! "Have you forgotten everything I have done for you?!"


"Of course not, Chief!" said Haldor as he took out two short swords and blocked the incoming two axes, also he was pushed back in the process. "I just have a greater debt to her mother than any other human!"


Clang!


"Your life belongs to me, b.a.s.t.a.r.d," said Marshal with a dangerous glint in his eyes as sparks flew in every direction. "I own her life too, so what is wrong with that?"


Haldor struggled to push him back, but he was far more powerful than him. Elinor looked at the pair and then pulled Luna into a sprint, running away from the half-masked man.


An otherworldly cry echoed in their ears, making their entire bodies tremble with fear. Haldor glanced behind the chief, and all he could see was a giant shadow behind him. The next moment, the chief disappeared.


Boom!


A gale of wind sent Haldor flying through the air, landing a few meters away. As he tried to make sense of what was happening, his entire body began sweating in fear. The feeling of imminent death seized his soul as a shadow towered over him.


Haldor raised his eyes, looking at the bronzed humanoid monster with a bull"s head. It flared its nostrils while staring at him with bloodshot eyes, looking like a true demon from h.e.l.l. The giant club rose in the air, thrice Haldor"s height.


"…can we talk about this?" asked Haldor as his mind jammed, unable to process what was about to happen. The giant club came crashing down with unparalleled speed. In that instant, he realized one crucial fact:


If he gets killed by a demon, he would not revive.


Haldor regretted a lot of things in that instant. He regretted not throwing away his life to give the woman who raised him a chance to live. Even more, he regretted not fighting to the death for her daughter"s freedom.


"I should have told my wife that I love her more."


Boom!


The giant club struck the ground, destroying everything. A giant crater spread across the ground at lightning speed, while Haldor found himself thrown to the side. In his arm was the impaled arrow that struck him in time to save him.


"Don"t go and die as you please," said Elinor with her bow aimed at them, tears filling her eyes. "Run, you idiot!" shouted his wife with rage, sending his entire body into action.


Haldor began running toward them and away from the demon. Elinor grabbed Luna once again, who was staring at the demon in a daze. Although her lips quivered to say something, she knew that he could not hear her.


Instead of chasing after them, the demon turned toward the Chief, who has struck the faraway tent which caught on fire. The masked man rose from the flames with blood leaking from his mouth as he glared at the demon.


"I admit that you are giving me some trouble, Ramiel Pureheart," said Freud with a grin as he cracked his neck twice. "I am the man who rebelled against a lord and almost took him down."


"Almost being the keyword!" shouted Haldor while running away, making Elinor slap his head. Freud glared at him with rage but the demon before him required his full attention.


"You all will die soon, except for the Moon Offering," said Freud with a devilish grin as he stared at the demon. "You protected her honor until the end, but I know what kind of demon a minotaur is, Ramiel. You would break that honor whether she reveals her face or not. You are nothing but a beast!"


As the giant Minotaur growled at him, Freud did not seem afraid like before. His two axes dropped to the ground as he took off his fur coat and threw it away. Then, he took off his mask, revealing his scared face to the world.


"My brother gave me this brand because I rebelled against him, but I see it as an honor," said Freud as he threw away the half-mask. "Just because I was the second son, I had to become a slave rather than a lord! This brand is a sign of my freedom!"


Although he spoke to the demon, the latter had nothing to say back. Instead, it raised the club from the ground before staggering toward the chief, whose muscles began growing.


"This is the one chance I have to rise above other humans. I don"t care if I have to worship a G.o.d or a demon, as long as I rule! If I had to be a slave, I want people underneath me!"


Freud was now inflated like a giant balloon. His figure almost turned round as his muscles grew rapidly, granting him immense strength that made the ground cave with a single step. His veins popped from his skin as if they were about to burst, trying to supply the unnatural growth.


"Even as the son of Stormblade Family, I had no desire to master any other weapons except for my own body!" said Freud as he strolled to meet the demon. "If you can defeat my current form… then I shall bow down to…"


Boom!


Before he could finish his words, the giant club slammed the inflating man flying once again. Freud did not even have a chance to sense the direction of the attack before it sent him flying. However, he adjusted himself midair and landed horizontally over a tree, before bolting back toward the minotaur.


lightsΝοvel.cοm "You think this could affect me?!" shouted the enraged chief as his arm grew gigantic and exploded toward the demon. The minotaur was struck in the chest and sent flying, but he stomped on the ground with a cry.


Boom!


The two monsters intertwined in a deadlock as each tried to rip the other apart. For a single second, they were evenly matched. However, Freud had the technique to tackle the demon to the ground. Then, he jumped in the air and tried to knee his skull and crush it!


Boom!


Freud grimaced in pain as his knee struck the two horns, which have grown enough to block his attack. Then, the demon jumped from the ground and headb.u.t.ted him with his horns, tearing through his flesh.


"You stubborn demon, just die already!" shouted Freud with rage as he slammed the demon over and over, but the minotaur just kept running through him.
