238 Ninhursag VS The Blue Demon —–
Ninhursag was ready to fight, she had put everything into this fight and wasn’t going to falter now. The giant Mammoth-like monster was defeated in an instant by her incredible prowess, as she exuded an enormous quantity of mana and life energy from within her body, intimidating and even overwhelming the will of the Blue Demon. Aberno looked at Ninhursag while gritting his teeth, his mind couldn’t think properly due to her enormous pressuring intimidation. And he could only think about a way to survive, but he was cornered, he could only fight to the death now… It was frustrating, he had come here to kill the heroes, at least if he could slice the head of one of them, he would feel happier and realized, and wouldn’t even mind getting killed at the end. His mind was wicked, and probably devoid of any emotions or regards for his own life or that of anybody… as long as he could accomplish his revenge… Even if partially, that’s all he wanted.
As someone that grew without anybody with him other than stupid and emotionless green skins that were like wild beast sometimes, he became increasingly cold and also lonely, he felt so alone, he always felt like there was nobody else that could ever understand him. Yet… as he was about to confront her, he realized that the one that wanted to kill him the most could understand him. She had lost her family in a similar way to him, and also wanted to avenge her family and kill the ones that had done this to her… The same way as him. She grew alone, and always felt lonely, just like him, and she once had no regards towards life, even her own life… just like him. Although he didn’t knew all the details of her life, it was easy to tell the parallelism in a surface level.
“You… You’re similar to me, aren’t you?” Asked Aberno, shocking Ninhursag for a bit.
“What did you said?!” Asked Ninhursag angrily.
“We lost our parents due to war, and we want revenge. Don’t tell me you didn’t grew up lonely now. I bet you felt as much despair as I did… Being the last of our kin… It must have felt lonely, right? That there was nobody to understand you… That there was never to help you develop your emotions… And that the only thing that grew inside of you was this hate… this frustration…” He said.
“…”
“Yeah, I can tell… And you think you can avenge them by killing me? Somebody that didn’t do anything of that? You know this won’t really bring you any satisfaction, right? It won’t lead anywhere… You’ll kill me knowing I wasn’t the one in fault for that… And then you’ll realize how empty your heart is…” Said Alberno.
“…!”
…..
“Yeah? So how about you let pass, so I can kill the heroes? I don’t think you’re that closet o them, right? And as I kill them, I can make you part of my tribe, you and I are like two halves… I’ll comprehend you and you’ll understand me. We can go together in this journey we call life… How about it? I am being extremely generous now… Come with me, woman. Perhaps I can find a way to fill that empty heart of yours.” The handsome blue demon said, as Ninhursag felt repulsion by hearing his words. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
However, there was another stronger emotion within Ninhursag, which made her burst into laughter after she hard the demon’s proposal, it felt so stupid!
“Are you serious?” She asked.
“Yes…!” Said Aberno.
“Hahaha… Hahahahaha! I am sorry but I cannot really believe you.”
“Eh?”
“AHAHAHAHAHAHA! You’re really a ridiculous man! Do you think I would ever take such a proposal from a demon? Let me tell you that I will get my satisfaction, I don’t just hate those that killed my parents… I just despise you.” Said Ninhursag. “I don’t give a damn if you weren’t the one, you are their child, and you’re about to do some atrocity anyways, so its good enough for me!”
Ninhursag didn’t cared. She was going to kill him anyways, she knew he was a wicked bastard, there was nothing that would change him, probably, so she had already made up her mind to kill him. Satisfaction? She would certainly get some if she killed someone that was trying to kill her best friends and their children, there wouldn’t be greater satisfaction than that, in fact
“Y-You dare insult me for my kind words?!” Cried Aberno, feeling suddenly heartbroken. When he finally found somebody that could understand him, she rejected him and called him an idiot!
“Kind words? Those are the words of a desperate demon about to get killed!” Laughed Ninhursag, she was turning more and more devilish, as she quickly charged towards Aberno without even caring about anything else!
“ROOAARRR!”
“D-Damn it!”
Within the chest of Aberno, there was a bright black jewel that flashed with dark energies, infusing them into the rest of his body. This was something that only very strong Demons could have or develop, a Demon Core. It was the crystallization of magic and demonic energies which appeared as an internal organ inside their bodies, giving them a greater advantage at the time of fighting than other lesser demons or races.
His entire body began to exude an enormous aura of darkness from within, covering his body with a dreadful aura that began to enhance his physical capabilities in mere seconds! His black sword reacted to his mana, as it suddenly unleashed black flames that covered the entire blade fiercely! These flames were Demon Flames, which could curse an enemy by burning through their flesh and were incredibly hard to turn off as well.
Aberno quickly jumped to the side, evading a giant lion paw that fell from the sky, rolling into the ground as several magic circles emerged around him, all of them conjuring scarlet spears made of blood and darkness magic, and firing them as constant projectiles against Ninhursag’s body!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
