"Alright." Karshias sighed helplessly as if he was pathetic and all, "Well, I can just torture some women later to satisfy my desires outside. Hmm, that would be better."
"That's right, you have all the time later when we are done with our task so focus on the mission first." Demure nodded, "Furthermore, you know what type of existence the emperor when he is dissatisfied, right?"
"..." The devil couldn't help but flinch a bit when he heard the term 'emperor'. Due to his arrogance in the past, he was thought a hard lesson that was unforgettable for him.
Seeing the other party's reaction, Demure smiled and added, "So do your best, Karshias. The emperot thinks highly of you. Don't let him down."
"...okay." Karshias nodded. He then looked at Jin Rou and Syni Su who were standing not so far away from him. A flash of terrorizing eyes flashed within, "You two are lucky. You will have an easy and quick death."
"And who do you think you are to sentence us to die?" Jin Rou mocked, "You all are just a bunch of clowns, jumping for entertainment."
"Oh?" Karshias raised his lips into a smile and said, "You have quite a tongue for your age. Does being the Celestial King made you think that you're so high and mighty?"
"Indeed. After all, that title alone was worth of arrogance and pride, don't you think?" Jin Rou answered and lashed back, "How about you though, and that devil on the throne? Just lackeys to the so called emperor?"
"..." Karshias didn't say anything but his glare was deathly enough for the two to sense danger.
"Zmm!" The swords vibrated behind Karshias and shot up. Karshias then spoke in a dark and cold volume, "You must be killed immediately, so that your mouth wouldn't be able to run."
"Heh, am I already getting in your nerves? That's too sudden." Jin Rou gripped his dual blades tightly and provoked, "Come at me, then. Enough of chitchat."
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" One sword of the three descended down to Jin Rou with a gravitational force that could pull a whole world.
"So be it. Die." Karshias spoke. The sword was colored gray and was threatening to flat its enemies into a meat paste.
"Stabilize!" Jin Rou shouted and a giant barrier appeared surrounding him and Syni Su.
"Boom! Boom!" The sword gave a powerful force banging the barrier with a momentum that couldn't be rivaled.
"!" Jin Rou was stumped. This sword was actually breaking his barrier little by little! Do note that this protection was something that had never been damaged because it boasted to being impregnable.
"Open!" Syni Su could feel the threat in this sword and immediately gave support to Jin Rou by fortifying the barrier. After a few seconds, the barrier had recovered.
"Hmph. Utterly useless." Karshias saw this and retrieved the sword. However, he threw it away once again. But this time, the force was double than the previous.
"Boom!" The sword clashed with the barrier and almost broke the entire entity of the said thing.
Jin Rou could not help but back off several steps because of the impact and used another barrier. Though his core was shook a bit, it wasn't the time for him to think of any useless thing. In fact, he even didn't have the luxury to think of something else because of the situation.
"Syni, do you think you can use your ultimate system?" Jin Rou asked the lady, "I heard that it is very powerful that could destroy a world with just a single punch."
"What? You want me to use it?" Syni Su was flabbergasted. She hated that system, to be precised. Because it had a not so nice drawback in her stead.
"Yes, I think we can win if you use that system." Jin Rou said as his tone was filled with grave seriousness, "As you can see, we are in a pinch right now and I am not able to activate all my systems here due to something restricting me. That's why I can only rely on you."
It was true. Though Jin Rou didn't say anything a while ago, he could feel that Demure had played some tricks under the matt. After all, Demure was the sole ruler of this place and he could anything in his desire.
"..." Syni Su wanted to decline. However, she knew that it wasn't the right time to get her attitude over this. This battle could dictate their life and death, so she needed to cooperate with Jin Rou as much as possible, "Okay. But I need a minute or two. Buy me some."
In order to use this technique, Syni Su needed to use an extravagant amount of resources and qi. So, it would take a bit of time to accumulate.
"Alright, I'll create an opening for you at the same time. Thus, within my signal, you need to deal a critical blow to that monster." Jin Rou was relieved that talking to Syni Su was easier than he expected. After all, he was asking too much this time. However, he had no choice either. Aside from the reason he stated, he also needed to conserve energy to fight that Demure who was still sitting on his throne.
"Okay." Syni Su started accumulating power and resources from her spatial treasury.
Now, Jin Rou had the full responsibility to protect Syni Su because she would remain immobilized and unconscious because of this process.
"Bang! Bang!" Jin Rou put a million of stacked protection talismans around them.
"Whoosh!" Then, Jin Rou dashed towards Karshias with his two swords.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!" Karshias and Jin Rou exchanged slashes as the whole ground broke and created cracks all around the place. Jin Rou didn't stop on giving deathly slashes towards the enemy so that he could hold the devil here.
"I can sense a terrifying amount of qi being gathered into that location." Karshias spoke and looked at Syni Su,"Do you think I won't know your plan?"
"You can know anything but you can't do anything about it." Jin Rou didn't stop on giving slashes against Karshias, "Just stay put here and wait for your death."
