The Great Demon System

Chapter 243 - Dome of Light 2



Chapter 243: Dome of Light 2

The lightning aura around Alex began to crackle and spread wide, crashing many lightning strikes around him as the aura also began to condense around his body, going around and enhancing his armour with an exterior aura of purple lightning with many symbols, claws around his gauntlets, the lightning aura forming and extending further than his actual hair, waving and crackling in the wind, the roar of a prideful king ambiently being heard in her ears as he continued to walk towards her, his eyes still white, tightly gripping his spear in hand, the aura of the beast behind him now clearly able to be seen from him as it was exuding from his every pore.

"L-lion…"

Abby barely managed to mumble, sweat running down her face, tightly gripping her scythe as she prepared for him to strike as she stared at what now seemed to her as a monster ready to turn her to shreds.

*Zzpp*

In the blink of an eye, Alex was now no longer in the place he used to be, gone without a trace only to once again reappear in front of her, striking straight at her stomach, which she only just barely managed to react, lifting her flaming scythe to block it.

However, that was far from enough to stop his strike as Abby was sent hurtling towards the wall of the light dome at incredible speed, her flames being immediately snuffed out and her scythe now cracked from the impact as she could not help but grunt and cough out blood as she tried her best to regain her balance.

Yet, before she even knew, she felt a heavy strike on her stomach, only to look up and find Alex's foot exactly where all the pain was, as she was sent crashing towards the light-filled ground, forming a massive crater, immense shock and waves of pain ravaging her entire body as she crashed, her eyes detaching from her head for a split second before she regained her vision.

"FUCK!"

She yelled out, still stuck on the ground, her body injured and weak as she stood up, her hands grasping the wound on her stomach as she looked all around her only to not find a trace of where Alex was.

"Where the fuck did all that power come from!? Is that spirit mode!? From when did you have that!? Yesterday you were nowhere near that strong! Plus, If you truly cared about me, would you really be hitting me like this!? Huh!? You Hypocri-"

She screamed like a lunatic, her desperation and madness clearly plastered on her face, before she was immediately cut off by a hand through her chest, fully infused with lightning, that made sure not to strike any vitals.

"F-fuck… F-fuck…" She cursed once more, pure hatred in her eyes as she coughed up blood on the ground, her legs feeling too weak to stand, failing her as she dropped on the ground, her body too weak to even move.

"You idiot! Don't you see I don't want to do this! I HATE doing this! I feel pain hurting you! But I still do it! I force myself to do it because I really do care about you! It's the only way!"

Alex spoke in a calm, hurting, tender voice that completely contrasted with his intimidating lion-like appearance.

"What kind of bullshit is that!? You're crazy! Once my sister comes back from killing that trash, fucking waste of space, she's gonna fucking kill you for what you did to me! Just you wait!"

Abby screamed her heart out, pure anger on her face as she used every fibre of her being to stand up, but only ended up squirming like a worm, flat on her stomach.

"You're the one who's crazy! You're being brainwashed! What I'm doing right now is not bullshit, this is to try and save you… When you snap back from your senses I'm sure you will understand…"

*Skrinsh* *Skrinsh*

Alex spoke, forming daggers made out of lightning, sticking them through all her limbs, pinning her on the ground so she could no longer move, making her scream from the pain, Alex's mental pain most likely even greater than what she was feeling physically as he now walked away from her and looked over at the rest of the fight, before he heard screams directed towards him from behind...

"Come back here you little bitch! It's not over between us! If you really think I'm being brainwashed, prove it! Unbrainwash me now!"

Not even bothering to turn around, he responded to her in a calm, serious voice.

"If I knew how, I would have done so already… And I have no time to experiment now… Moby is probably the only person who knows so I will wait for him to come and save you… For now, I've gotta go and do my part… So, you wait here patiently until all of this is over… Things shouldn't take too long… See ya!"

Alex spoke in a bright, upbeat voice, his cloak of lightning bursting back up around his body.

"Stop! If y-"

Abby screamed once more, only for her words to be immediately halted as she managed to catch a glimpse of Alex's face before he left, tears running down his white, lightning eyes, making her feel something odd in her cracking and eroding heart before she was once again snapped back to how she previously was by an immense headache that ravaged her mind, Alex now completely gone when she opened her eyes, making her inwardly curse.

At immense, lightning-fast speed, Alex dashed throughout the entire battlefield, leaving the sound of zaps and trails of lightning in his path as he headed straight for Hikari who was still joyfully spectating the fight ahead of her with no care in the world.

'Lightning beasts!'

With a wave of his hands, around a dozen lions made out of pure lightning mana spawned all around him as soon as he neared Hikari, ordering them to attack her head-on.

"Hmmm?"

With a casual eyebrow raise, Hikari looked above her, a face of Joy appearing on her face as she saw 12 kitty cats jumping down at her wanting to play.

"Do you want a hug?"

With a wave of her finger, 12 tentacles of light emerged from the ground, grabbing all the lions and tightly hugging them, not allowing them to move even a single inch.

When, suddenly, a massive burst of lightning was discharged straight from the lions who were squeezed so hard that they popped, the electricity travelling through the tentacles and straight to Hikari herself.

"AHHHH!!"

She screamed, for the first time ever she had screamed from pain, tears falling from her face as electricity continued flowing through her entire body, her face now black and full of dust as she coughed and wiped her face.

"Owwwie! That H-"

She screamed once more, only for her words to be stopped by another blast of purple lightning coming her way, only this one was much stronger than the one before it…

*Bink*

Suddenly, the lightning blast was deflected almost like it was nothing but a tiny spark, Hikari's hair and clothes immediately beginning to shift, now turning black… Her bright, cheerful face now nowhere to be found, replaced by a serious face filled with nothing but pure contempt.

"It's you again… Haven't you learned your lesson the first time? Do you want me to beat it into you again? Do you? You know… You just fucked up big time… No one has ever hurt my sister and lived to tell the tale…" An aura of black darkness completely engulfed her body, the feeling of death all surrounding it.

Her opponent was nowhere to be seen, yet she knew exactly where he was…

"Found you! Little kitty cat!"

She yelled, pulling out a black spear from her storage ring and blocking the lightning attack from behind her without even looking around.

"Just die!" Alex yelled, ducking down and striking at her stomach from below with lightning reflexes and speed, only for him to hit absolutely nothing, what was in front of him only seeming like an illusion that he only managed to see by focusing deeply with his knight vision.

"No… You are the one who will die… No one is allowed to make my sister cry… NO ONE!"

Slowly, Alex looked at his hands, the look of decay on it as it began to lose its colour, pure darkness surrounding his vision which made him promptly release a massive burst of lightning from his body, making the darkness go away, slashing straight at Yami who was directly behind him with the tip of his spear.

However, when he focused deeply on her figure, he noticed that it was once again not real, making him redirect his spear to his left, hitting with the hilt only for his strike to be blocked by Yami's own spear that seemed almost twice her height.

"Very impressive… But nowhere near good enough,"

darkness infusing her blade, she began slashing towards Alex in a series of combos and attacks, Alex only barely managing to keep up with her speed despite pushing his body to its limits, his limbs feeling like they were about to fall off as he continuously glowed many different colours in the midst of battle.

"What the fuck are you! How are you so strong!?" Alex cursed, not giving up any hope as he tried to use every trick in his book to win.

He was no doubt losing, in his new spirit mode while his opponent did not even look to be taking him seriously, not only in strength, but her skills with the spear even better than his own as she continued to overpower and outmaneuver him, striking straight at his vitals and face, blood running down everywhere on his body and sweat running down his still fully determined face.

'Lightning Beast Bomb!'

Jumping in the sky, he tried his best to get away from her, releasing a dozen lightning beasts straight towards her, making them all explode with a snap of his fingers, completely engulfing her in a burst of electricity unlike anything he had done before, It's aura and sound echoing through the entire dome, the sound of a roaring lion almost being heard from the explosion, making the entire dome glow a tint of purple and demand the attention of every onlooker, including Abby who could not help but open her mouth in awe.

Of course, It was an attack that expected to finish her off, he was not delusional enough to think that. However, he expected it to at least buy him some time to breathe and slightly recover his aching body after all that he had gone through, him not fully used to his spirit mode and its pressure since it was his first time using it.

However, even still... he was sorely mistaken...
