BAM—!
The noble demon took a punch to the face from Raye!
Though—
-... Huh...?
He barely felt it.
It was so weak it might as well have been a breeze.
Raye’s body was wrecked.
He was so exhausted that he couldn’t even muster a fraction of his real strength.
"Keuk... shit..."
Raye gritted his teeth, frustration boiling inside him.
The demon didn’t even flinch.
And at that moment—
BAM!
"GAHHK—!!"
A vicious kick.
Right to his stomach!
FWOOSH—!
Raye’s body launched backward!
BOOM—!
He crashed onto the ground—
THUD!
He bounced once before falling flat on his back.
"Urgh..."
A pained groan escaped him.
His lungs burned.
His stomach churned.
But still—
Raye tried to get up.
"...grrgg...!"
His fingers dug into the ground, pushing himself up.
And seeing that—
-Pfft...
The noble demon grinned with a soft laugh.
-I guess you’re really done now.
His eyes turned crescent, a malicious gleam in them.
-Too bad. You look like a really interesting toy...
He added, his voice laced with amusement.
But not paying attention to him—
"Urgh...! Gah...!"
Tap—
Raye stood up again.
"Huff... huff... haaaa... haaa..."
His whole body trembled.
His legs shook, barely holding him up.
They were about to collapse.
"Ugh..."
Raye’s chest ached.
His head pounded.
His entire body was screaming in pain.
But still—
He wasn’t done yet.
"Huff... huff..."
Raye’s breath was ragged.
His body was screaming, begging him to stop.
Though—
’I’ll fucking kill you...!’
His rage burned stronger than his pain.
Fwish-
"..."
Raye lifted his head, his fierce, unfaltering eyes locking onto the noble demon again.
All he could see was the blurred silhouette of the noble demon.
But still—
"Fuuuu..."
Fwip-
Raye still lifted [Nyx] and pointed it at his enemy.
And in return—
-Hah...
The noble demon smirked.
-You’re really stubborn, aren’t you?
He tilted his head, amused.
He’s smiling ear to ear.
-Look at yourself, barely standing. Broken. Weak.
He chuckled.
-And yet, you still glare at me like you stand a chance.
The noble demon’s voice was full of mockery.
Then, responding to him—
"...Hah."
Raye let out a weak scoff.
And then—
"Can’t you just shut up?"
He raised his head a bit higher, saying that!
"You’re talking too much. Come at me already, fucking noisy bastard."
Raye declared. Your adventure continues at freewebnovel
His voice was hoarse.
But his mocking tone was unmistakable!
And hearing his words—
-...
The noble demon became silent.
His smirk twitched.
A glint of irritation flickered in his eyes.
-’This human—’
-’Even now, he still dared to act tough?!’
The demon exclaimed in his head, looking at Raye like he was some kind of a toy.
And then—
-Hahaha...
A low laugh escaped his mouth.
And following that—
-HAHAHAHAHA!!!
His shoulders shook as he laughed louder.
Fwish-
His wings slightly spreading.
And the next moment—
-Ha...
The demon’s laughter stopped.
His grin sharpened.
And with a deep, venomous voice—
-YOU ASKED FOR IT.
The noble demon loudly muttered that—
BAM—!
And he kicked off the ground!
FWOOSH—!!!
The demon charged at Raye!
"...!"
Raye’s eyes widened.
He felt it—
The demon’s presence closing in fast!
And so—
With his beaten, battered body—
F W O O S H—!
Raye thrust his sword forward!
"Gugh...!!"
He gritted his teeth through the pain!
At this point—
Raye couldn’t even follow the demon’s movements anymore.
He was too fast.
Too overwhelming.
But—
That didn’t matter.
Raye didn’t need to see.
He just had to feel it.
And guess the timing.
And his guess—
FWOOSH—
It was perfectly on spot!
The tip of his blade shot forward straight at the noble demon’s face—
-?!
The demon’s eyes slightly widened.
And for a moment—
He just stared at the cold, gleaming edge of [Nyx] that was just a few inches away from stabbing him.
And then—
-Heh.
The demon’s lips curled.
-’This one is really interesting.’
He thought.
Despite his injuries, despite his exhaustion—
Raye still refused to break.
He still fought back.
But because of his exhaustion and the state of his body...
The noble demon didn’t actually consider this attack of him as a real threat.
And easily—
FWISH—!
With just a slight tilt of his neck, the demon dodged Raye’s sword!
And following that—
TAP—
The demon took another step forward.
Now—
He was standing right in front of Raye!
Close.
Too close.
And with the claws on his left hand tensed—
-’Play time is over.’
The demon declared that in his head.
PHUCK—!
And then he stabbed Raye in the stomach!
SHIIICK—!!
The demon’s claws pierced deep, sinking into Raye’s flesh—
"GAH—!!"
Blood splattered onto the ground beneath them as—
"Guhk...!"
Raye coughed out blood.
His vision blurred, the edges darkening.
He could feel it—
His body weakening.
He was at his limit.
And at that moment—
-Goodbye.
The demon whispered in Raye’s ear, his lips curling into a twisted smile.
But with a weak smile—
"...shut up..."
Raye responded.
His voice was faint—
Yet his eyes were still burning with life!
And at that moment—
FWIP—!
Raye suddenly wrapped his right arm behind the demon’s neck—
-Huh?!
And PULLED HIM CLOSER!
The demon’s eyes widened in surprise.
But before he could even react—
F W O O O O O S H—!!!
Raye thrust the elegant dagger in his left hand!
(It was [Celestria].)
And just before it could hit—
"[Blaze...!]"
Raye muttered that.
And then—
SWAAAAAAA—!!!
PHUCK—!!!
He stabbed the noble demon deep in the stomach—
With a flaming white dagger!
SIZZLE—!!!
The searing heat burned through flesh of the demon!
And feeling his attack go in—
"How does it feel now to have a hole in your stomach?"
Raye asked that while grinning, his voice dripping with amusement.
"Not fun, right?"
Blood dripped down the corner of his lips.
He was pissed off—
Two noble demons had stabbed him in the stomach with their claws on the same damn day.
(This was his revenge.)
Anyway, with Raye’s dagger deep in his stomach, burning—
-URGH...?!!
The noble demon groaned in pain.
His eyes widened, realization striking him like lightning.
Drip—
A single drop of dark crimson blood fell from his lips.
Disbelief washed over him.
-THIS...!!
And then—
In pure anger—
-FUCKING BASTARD!!!
BAM!!!
He swung his fist and punched Raye in the face!
CRASH—!!!
Raye was flung away once more!
B O O M!!!
"GAH—!!!"
He slammed into a wall!
His back buried deep into the shattered stone.
"KEUK...!!"
Raye coughed out a huge chunk of dark red blood.
Drip—
Drip—
Blood poured from his wounds, staining the cracked ground beneath him red.
His body twitched—
But barely.
His breathing—
"ha.a..h.aa...ha..aa...a..a."
It was Ragged. Uneven. Weak.
And his vision—
’I.. can’t... see...’
Dark. Blurry. Distant.
His mind—
’I... need.. to... stand...’
It was slowly fading.
But even with all of this—
"...!"
Raye’s eyes were open.
He was still glaring toward the direction of the noble demon.
Even as the light vanished from his gaze.
Even as his consciousness slipped away.
Even as his body refused to move.
"..kill... you..."
Raye didn’t let go of his anger—
Fwip—
And his weapons.
Drip—
More blood seeped from the massive hole in Raye’s stomach.
It wasn’t stopping.
He was losing too much blood.
His body—
Broken.
His bones—
Almost all of it was shattered.
His flesh—
It was torn apart from being beat up.
His insides—
It was almost turned upside down.
And yet—
"...fuc..k..."
Raye’s anger was still alive.
And seeing that—
-Ugh...
The noble demon let out a low groan.
His face twisted in annoyance.
Fwish-
He lowered his gaze, looking down at himself.
His fancy red suit—
It was torn.
His flesh was still burning too.
The gaping hole in his stomach was still searing with pain.
His flesh was charred, still smoldering.
The wound—
It wasn’t healing fast enough.
-Urgh...
And that pissed the noble demon off.
-Grrgh!
He gritted his teeth.
And then, looking back ahead—
"..ha..a.a...aa..."
He saw Raye.
Still standing.
Barely.
-...Haha.
The demon softly laughed...
But he was really annoyed at Raye.
And wanting to end this annoyance of his—
B A M—!
The demon rushed toward Raye again!
His eyes were blood-red in anger!
FWOOSH—
"..."
Raye doesn’t know that the demon was coming at him.
And even if he does know—
’Ah... I’m dead...’
He can’t move his body anymore!
And so—
-DIEEEE—!!
S W O O O S H—!!!
The demon dashed toward him confidently!
He was planning to end Raye there and then!
He was planning to brutally pluck out Raye’s head off his body!
But then...
Just as he was about to reach Raye—
"[BANG!!!]"
The noble demon heard that above him.
-Huh?
He looked up.
And the next thing he knew—
F W O O O S H—!!!
He saw a massive pillar of fire, rotating violently—
Coming straight at him!
-?!
The demon’s eyes widened at that sight.
And instinctively—
BAM-!
He kicked back to avoid it!
B O O O M—!!
A loud explosion occurred when the fire hit the ground.
SWOOOOSH—
Dust and debris flew everywhere!
CRACK—
A deep hole appeared on the ground too, like a crater of a volcano!
And seeing that—
-’That’s a strong spell, I would’ve lost at least an arm from that...’
The demon declared that in his head, a frown appearing on his face.
Fwish-
Then, looking back up again to see who launched that attack—
-Who are you?
The noble demon saw a young lady.
"..."
She has beautiful purple hair and violet eyes.

She was glaring at him.
And opening her mouth—
"[SUMMON!!!]"
Jerusha exclaimed that.
