Roar!!!

Joan shouted at him. The floor cracked as he slammed his hands at the head. He saw that the enemy was not moving but he still didn’t stop there. Slamming again the head with another round.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Five smashes and the enemy was furiously beaten to the ground. Joan roared again at him and grabbed its horns. Lifting his head and saw that it was all in black and blue. He dropped the head then turned around. Moving towards Isaias as he saw that the enemy didn’t have a plan to stand up again.

Just as he was moving towards him, he felt that his enemy twitched. He pushed himself up with his weary hands and felt dizzy..

“Ah, never felt that for many years. You sure know what tickles me.” Balmuth said to him while cracking his neck.

Joan then looked back and saw that his enemy was breathing. Stretches his back that was producing cracking sounds as he twisted his waist. Joan then was taken aback. He didn’t know that his enemy survived his attack.

“It was so long since someone survived that. I will surely enjoy this. Please entertain me with your fighting back. I hope we will be both pleased,” Joan said to him.

Without further ado, Joan used his skill [Charge] and dashed towards his enemy. This time around, his enemy dashed towards him and didn’t wait for him to just stand there.

Roar!!!

They both shouted at each other and the tomb was reverberating with their voices. Enough to shake the floor and the pebbles were hopping as the floor vibrate. The Demon General prepared his claws and so was Joan. He was in his Werebear form and prepared his claws.

The very floor shakes as they both stomped their feet. Running towards each other. They were crushing the floor with their weight and dashed with all might. All the cultist were all watching the two and was at awe.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

“Balmuth! I will crush you!” Joan growled.

“If you can in your dreams!” Balmuth shouted.

Joan used his skill [Charge] and his speed rose. With greater speed and momentum, he prepared to crashed towards his enemy.

[Fire breath]

Balmuth used his skill and Joan still dashed. With his armor still equipped, he was left undamaged. Still, the burning sensation was felt. With Joan agitated with his breath, he shielded his face then smacked his jaw with his gigantic paws. Making his lower jaw nearly snap as he smacked it.

With his [Charge] still active, he collided with Balmuth and they were thrown toward the tomb’s walls. The two sunken inside the walls and silence struck the cultists.

A rumbling sound was emitted and then Balmuth punched him in the face. Making Joan thrown from the inside. Exiting the hole with a bang and Joan gripped the floor to ease the momentum. He grinned with what he felt, feeling the pain in his face. Still, the enemy was very energetic.

The enemy then exited the hole on the wall then he dashed towards him. Using his [Fireball missiles], he made fireballs on his back and launched towards him.

Joan was once again dumbstruck with the numbers of his enemy’s fireball. In his mind, he has mana-well far greater than him. If he has mana-well on par with him or greater, then it will be a great battle.

Babababababang!!!

Joan was assaulted with [Fireball missiles]. Making him run while burning as the fire was still lingering in his armor. But still, he was unscathed and his armor was regenerating. The fireballs were exploding as it touches his armor but have burning damage per second. He can only supply the armor with more mana so that he will not burn.

“Balmuth!” Joan roared.

“Come here!” Balmuth shouted.

Joan then dashed and approached him in an instant then used his skill [Hand slam].

Bang!!!

Balmuth grabbed his hands and his feet sunk to the floor. The floor cracked and it made Balmuth grit his teeth. His back intensely strained as he received the force head-on. His force was enough to make Balmuth have a pained expression.

Joan then stepped back as Balmuth used his [Fire breath] and [Fireball missiles] at the same time. Making Joan evade it in point-blank range. Dashing sideways, he was able to evade some but some were able to damage his armor.

Joan then was breathed with fire and so he blocked it with his arms. Making his armor on his arms burn and was in embers. Still was bearable to Joan but he was deeply agitated. Approaching him with a [Charge] then used his skill [Maul].

[Maul]–a skill of hitting the enemy with heavier hands and was able to break bones. Can break armors and snap metal pipes. Can be buffed with Gigantism skill.

He smashed him with his paws on the face and Balmuth’s breathing of fire was put to a halt. His neck snapped on the process. Balmuth then stepped back several times and shakes his head. He felt dizzy in the process and slammed his butt on the process.

“So you still wanna continue? I can still go on without problems,” Joan said to him.

Roar!!!

Balmuth then used his skill [Demonic heal] and it was being maintained this time. It was like a dark aura that was seeping out of his skin. Healing him in the process but damages his enemy when touched.

This time around, his enemy was now agitated. Making Joan gulp saliva. In the past, he met Demon Generals like him and that was when he was on the master level of job classes. Thinking that he knew all their skills but have earth stage mana realm was very detrimental. Just able to exert such bare minimum skills with his current self. It was very problematic on his side and so he was not happy about it. Still thinking of getting a taste of his past strength was what he thought of the moment. Those skills that he yearned for the most right now.

Joan then went all out. With what the enemy has right now, he will have a difficult time damaging him as he was regenerating. Making his battle harder than before. It also has a damaging effect on Joan’s side. Making the tides toss against him.

Time was at hand and so Isaias stomped his staff. Approaching Joan then used his skill [Anti demon barrier].

“Joan! Let me help!” Isaias shouted.

“Sure! Let’s hurry!” Joan announced.

The barrier was established then the demon inside was tormented. Making him weaken as his skin was burned. Still, his regeneration was coping up but it can’t mitigate the pain he felt at the moment. It would be torturous on his side but he can’t get out. Now that Isaias was stuck to holding the barrier, Joan made his move.

He reverted to his human form and used his Mage job class at the moment. Using his mana as a catalyst, he prepared his rain of spells towards the enemy.

[Thunderstruck]

He was struck with a thousand volts of lightning that came from above. Coming from a small thunder cloud that appeared from nowhere.

The skill was very mana consuming so Joan’s mana well was very well expended. Making him rest for a few seconds not reaching a minute. His enemy roared as he was toasted. His skin was burning and smoking in the process.

[Sun flare]

Another skill was made, a spell so hot that the barrier was barely holding back. The bright light was made, as bright as the sun and he was roaring in pain. He was resistant to all elements but it doesn’t mean he was immune to it. Further experiencing it was very damaging to him. His bones were protruding from his flesh and were sizzling in the heat. Still, his skill [Demonic heal] was active and he was able to heal immediately.

Thinking of this, Joan then used another skill.

[Deep freeze]

He was frozen in the process, making him become a statue of ice. Joan then broke him and he was shattered into pieces with his skill [Telekinesis].

“That would do the trick, Balmuth! Thank you Isaias for holding him off. Now, only one thing has to be made and that is to stop his unsealing. We have to hurry!” Joan shouted.
