Chapter 466: Alros Vs Hero IV
The Hero turned towards him, realization dawned on hee face over what happened to her spatial pouch.
"You!" she yelled, to which Alros smiled in a demonic manner in return.
"Yes?" he replied quizzically, earning a frustrated growl from the Hero. No doubt the loss of her companions and fatigue started to overcome her.
And now, Alros is waiting for the time for her to topple down.
"I will kill you!" she yelled again before sprinting towards him, leaving an after image from her tremendous speed.
Alros jumped away in time as he would have lose his head, but not before losing a leg. The Archdemon gritted his teeth before his other legs transformed, turning into a demonic leg before swiping at the Hero, who barely dodge it.
'This is the last leg, winner takes all.' the Archdemon taught to himself. Even now, he don't think he stood a chance against the Hero alone, especially now he lose a leg.
Thankfully, he was not alone.
The Hero perk up when she heard sounds coming from behind her as his clones appeared enmasse, along with 20 of his strongest monsters and the remainjng Chimera whp will not live after today. All ready for a rumble with the Hero.
-x-
The Hero looked around her, likely realizing the danger, yet she did not backdown.
"If there is more of you, I will just kill you all." she said calmly, as her body glowed with radiant light, burning those with demonic power, yet none waver, especially as it is no doubt her mana will be drained as she did so.
And so, the Chimeras began to attack, only to die to her light imbued slashes. But it was always their purpose to die, to allow the monsters and clones to get a read of her movement.
As almost all of them die in 2 minutes, the clones make their move as they surround her, before rushing in close, trying to strike her down with precise hit aiming anywhere they could touch.
However, the radiant glow prove to be hard to break as any attack of demonic kind melted against the glow, but not before weakening it from the flickering of the Holy Light.
Even as more clones were killed by the Hero, the remaining keep on rushing at her, using their demonic power and even blood which they spill to cover her, as the demonic aura continue to corrode the glow.
By the end of all his A-rank clones, which took half an hour, the glow was no more, leaving a tired S-rank Hero, which was still dangerous.
"I will leas the charge. All of you will take the opportunity to attack when I did so." Alros gave his order before leaping towards her.
As she was catching her breath, the Archdemon of Lust was able to caught her slight off guard. She swing her sword at his left arm, intend on taking it.
Alros move his body in a way to not lose his entire limb, before punching her on the face, sending her flying before an Earth Pillar appear underneath her, hitting her on the gut again and sending her flying.
The Arachne High Queen took the opportunity to jump on top of her before slamming her arm down, sending her crashing to the ground.
When the Hero landed on the ground, very hardly, she could barely react to the attack of the Lamia High Queen, who swing her tail toward her, sending her flying to the Demonic Orc Warking.
As she still have some Holy Aura around her, the Demon Orc Warking winced from the Holy burn, but continue to stand his ground to send the Hero flying towards the mass of other A-rank monsters.
And so, a vicious game of throw and catch occur between the monsters as they did their best to hurt the Hero, hopping to knock her out once and for all.
Yet, as a Demon Goblin Veteran about to punt the Hero, the said Hero moved, avoiding the blow before punching the Demon Goblin Veteran to smithereens.
Shocked by the death of one of them, none of the nearby A-rank monsters could react as she killed three of them, her Holy power burning them instantly.
Despite being bloodied and with multiple injuries, and her armor barely hanging on with dents in many places, the Hero remain standing. On her last leg, but still standing.
As the other monsters trembled, Alros made his way towards her, his lost leg replaced with a metallic implant, one done hastily and could be described as piercing the stump but not doing any harm.
With his red eyes glowing, he stare at the Hero's defiant blue eyes before he sprint towards her, their hands locking as they pushed each other back, not bothering with any fancy technique.
Usually, no being of A-rank, not even a Giant could hope to stand a chance in a strength contest against S-rank being. However, with the Hero in her current tired, badly injured state, Alros was not only able to hold her off, but even began to overpower her.
As she was pushed back, the Hero let out another strong glow, causing Alros to stagger slightly. The action allowed the Hero to make a move, kicking him at the groin, or so is the target.
The Archdemon of Lust barely manage to avoid losing an important part of her but as he dodge it, the Hero took a dagger an imbued it with Holy Magic, intend on severing his neck.
Alros barely manage to dodge the attack, yet she followed up with a downward slash, aimed at his right arm. At the moment, he had to make a choice.
As the dagger came down to his shoulder, Alros move slightly to the left, allowing his arm to be severed. The agonizing pain burn throughout his entire body, but he hold himself, stopping himself from reacting to the pain.
As for why he let himself lose an arm, it was all for the final blow. His left fist were imbued with all his mana converted into demonic aura, which would be more than enough to break her armor and hit her really hard.
And with her attention on his arm, the Hero could barely react as his fist collided with her stomach, as the demonic power imbued on the fist destroyed whatever defense she had, hitting her hard on the gut.
