Chapter 184: Demonic Beings in Another World

Facing demonic beings is not a joke and a matter to be laughed at. During my time inside the Phantasmal Reality, a hundred Demonic beings, creatures corrupted by the darkness is one of the foes I am having trouble with. They might be a little bit weak in comparison to the demons themselves but that doesn't mean they are not considered as a danger. Their numbers alone are considered as troublesome as a single demon.

"So demonic beings are also here too huh? It looks like even this world is infested with demons too."

"That is already understandable Kazuma, as this world also has the demon lord where heroes are usually tasked to slay to ensure the survival of the human race and to stop the invasion of the demons. It wouldn't be strange to see things like this often."

"Trouble as always. These guys don't give me a rest, do they?"

Letting my open palms crackle in electricity, the moment I arrived at the nearest enemy, I slam my palms to the ground and let the electricity go on a rampage. Instead of going to the ground, it acted like a snake and the volt of electricity started to jump to the ground before reaching the demonic beings. But hey, this is the effect I am trying to produce and I succeeded in doing so.

"BEGONE!"

CRACKLE! ZAP ZAP ZAP!

ZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTT!

The resounding sound of the electricity echoed in the night. The enemies are too surprised by my sudden arrival that they have not reacted to the attack I made, causing several of the demonic beings to fall one by one without being able to resit.

However, that attack I made is not enough to wipe out all of the demonic beings. The ones that fell are just the frontline, the backlines and support frontline enemies have yet to emerge. It is dark and adjusting to the dark is a little bit troublesome but with the help of [Insight], it is not a problem to walk around at night.

The first monsters are shaped like wolves but due to the corruption of the darkness, they looked like shadows instead. The others are looking like ogres but smaller versions. They also wield some clubs and some wield knives. From their shape and their sounds, I am assuming those are goblins but due to their shape only showing due to the dark power corrupting them, I can only guess what they are based on their silhouettes and characteristics.

Since my surprise attack only managed to kill a few enemies, it is time to make some proper moves.

"Time to test out the electricity and roast some of them."

I didn't use the flames on them since we are in the forest. Igniting the forest due to my magic is going to be a bad thing so before I can do that mistake, then let us use the lesser magic that can still cause destructive power against enemies, but has a lesser chance to invoke flames in the surroundings. However, it still has a chance to burn things if it was used with too much power.

Besides, the power of my electricity is not that strong compared to the flames that I keep on using in my fights. This is a chance for me to test out the damage output I can dish out on every skill, that way, I can use the full potential of electricity.

The demonic beings did not stay in the shadow for long and started attacking me like crazy. But that doesn't mean I will also stay put and let them attack me.

"DIE!"

Dodging the attacks of the enemies, I also proceed to shoot them electric shocks with medium power in the right palm while large voltage power in the left palm. Some of them like the goblin-shaped enemies are easily killed by the medium voltage power but the wolves seem to be able to resist a little bit, but they don't last in the large voltage power.

Dodging, attacking, and repeat. The goblins and wolves are fast, but, they don't seem to be doing that much.

"Kazuma, be careful, I just noticed just now that they have corrosive properties. Look at your sleeves and the knee area of your left leg. They are all corroded," Blue warned.

When I heard her warn me of the corrosion, I immediately stepped back a little bit and examined quickly my clothes. And just like Blue described, both the sleeves of my hooded shirt and the left leg knee area of my pants are a little bit corroded with damage. I was almost attacked by them in slight times during the skirmishes so I think these corroded parts of my clothes came from those.

The smaller enemies were now thinned out and seeing the lesser amount of the smaller demonic beings left behind, I saw the bigger demonic beings moving. Based on their size and silhouette, they are the corrupted ogres.

These corrupted ogres started roaring before attacking with their clubs and arms. They are fast and they hit real hard seeing the crater created after smashing down their clubs to the ground, I almost break a sweat in nervousness seeing the damage output.

"You think you guys can squash me? Not so fast!"

I dodged all of their attacks and countered them using the electricity. Since they also possess the corrosion property the smaller demonic beings possess, I didn't bother going to them and deal a melee blow but just sent a strong electric strike in quick precision while dodging constantly from their attacks.

ZAP ZAP ZAP ZAP

ROOOOOAAAAARRR!

They are getting a little bit annoying and every time they roar, they also increase. The wolves also regained their numbers and the annoying little f*ckers increased. The ogres also increased in numbers but that is not my kind of sh*t.

Stepping back, I charge up my magic and convert the charging mana to electricity. I have not mastered much electricity so I decided to improvise and do it on my own instead.

"Be careful on that Kazuma. Unlike fire magic which is easy to improvise, electricity might backfire. Do not be hesitant to deploy your Domain of Balmung anytime after casting the magic!" Blue suggested.

The demonic beings charge to my location as I continue to charge the mana and convert it to electricity. However, that is what I am hoping for. The monsters attack me simultaneously.

It took a little bit of dodging but the moment my hands started to feel heavy, I didn't hold back.

"Eat this, f*ckers!"

BZZZZZZZZZTTTTTT!

Electricity exploded in front of me and the enemies charging towards my direction were all caught up by the blast. It was a strong magic spell so I doubt Yami and Ishana didn't notice it but it didn't just make a huge ruckus, but the demonic beings that are attacking me were all wiped out in one strike.

The attack that occurred cost me lots of mana that I almost emptied my storage bank of mana the moment I released it. It felt a little bit bad in my head since emptying your mana bank is enough to cause mana bite which happens during the usage of strong magic. I am a little bit lucky I didn't felt it since according to the records, once you experienced it, you might have already experienced a gruesome pain in your body that you will think your body has been slowly being ripped apart by an unknown entity.

"The seed of Ygdrassil helped out recovering my mana immediately the moment I lost all of them in one single attack allowing me to avoid the bite of mana. But damn, that was electrifyingly troublesome," I mumbled as I looked at the aftermath of my attack.

I didn't hold back on the last attack, so when the electric damage landed on the ground, the surrounding trees were also blasted with strong mana and their magic suddenly rose after the incident.

Looking in my [Insight] and scan the place, I immediately confirmed the place free from the demonic beings. I might have damaged the forest for a bit to obliterate the demons immediately, I didn't expect things to get troublesome.

"That attack might have caused great disturbance to the village. I think I have to immediately escape here and return to my room immediately."

"Do it immediately! I can sense the movement of your two companions closing the distance between you guys!"

Without looking back and loitering around, I immediately dash forward and begin my escape and return to the little house before anyone discovers me.
