Against the World II: Transgression
Chapter 13: Sataniciela, part 2
First, Luciel has an enemy in Lucifer. Second, Eileithyia hated Luciel until she was willing to sacrifice her life to finish him off. And now, someone else had come to spread an immeasurable hatred towards Luciel. Really? Does Luciel's hobby make people hate him?
Xavier shook his head slowly, inexhaustible with the behavior of the archangel that one.
“It will be in vain to convince you that I am not Luciel,” Xavier said as he relaxed the joints of his two shoulders. “However, before we finish any business that you want to settle, why don't you introduce yourself first.”
The woman's mouth gave no answer. He was already in front of Xavier with a dark black spear in hand. The spear is not normal. Not only did he make it appear out of nothing, it also emitted a dense air. And from this close distance, Xavier felt a faint demonic air from this beautiful woman.
Xavier made his body untouchable; the spear just pierced through as if it didn't exist. The demon—so Xavier—'s assumption did not reveal a face of surprise; his body pierced through Xavier's body with an ordinary expression. Given that he hates Luciel, Xavier concludes that Luciel once did the same trick to him.
A whitish-blue lightning instantly enveloped Xavier's two hands as the violet-haired woman's body perfectly passed through his body. And immediately he turned around with both hands piercing forward. Unfortunately, the devil— who has experienced facing Luciel— has manifested a black shield that blocks the stab of both hands covered in Xavier lightning.
As Xavier's hands hit the shield, the demon had teleported behind him. Xavier sensed there was more than one spear aimed at his body. However, this time Xavier did not try to make his body untouchable. Just before the spears touched his clothes, Xavier had already teleported right onto the demon's head with a black fire spear that had been tightly grasped in his right hand.
The woman spontaneously glanced upwards. Unmercifully, Xavier thrusts his fire spear down aiming at the devil's left shoulder. But Xavier's efforts were unsuccessful; a barrage of dark black shields blocked his black fire spear.
Of course quickly the black flames swallowed up all of the shields. However, in that little time, Sataniciela had already moved away from Xavier and had prepared hundreds of black spears on her right, left, and top. All of those spears shot out at hypersonic speeds, mercilessly.
“Space Reversal,” whispered Xavier slowly, and instantly his body swapped places with the devil.
This time, Xavier successfully made a surprised expression appear on the face of the demon. The barrage of spear strikes sounded a few milliseconds later. The demon with both black spears in both hands made an astonishing move in blocking the black spears that shot towards him.
Not wanting to let the demon focus on fending off the spears, Xavier took a deep breath in a puffed-up tone. If it was usually a blue magic circle that appeared in front of his mouth, this time the magic circle was black. Dragon’s Breath, Inner Xavier, and a moment later black flames gushed out in high intensity crashing at the demon.
The demon bent the last black spear that sped towards him, then threw the black spear in his left hand straight ahead. However, even though the pace was fast, the spear vanished engulfed in black flames. And in a few tens of milliseconds later, the black flame reached the demon.
Shocking Xavier, his black flame bursts shrank significantly, intensely attracted to the devil's left palm.
“You seem to be stronger than Luciel,” said the woman right after absorbing Xavier's black flame out. “Alright, I let you hear my name.” The demon landed with a spear hitting the ground strongly. “Sataniciela, the strongest demon in the universe. Remember that name well in your rotten brain, before that useless brain I also destroyed it to nothing.”
“Ha...” Xavier didn't respond any more than that. The black flame spear was gone. Lightning sparks formed in both of his palms. The lightning sword that was then clad in high density black flames manifested perfectly. “Alright then,” Xavier said with a lightning spark that had enveloped his body. “Let's see if you can make those words a reality.”
Satiniciela blocked Xavier's vertical sword swing with a spear in her right hand, while another spear that had formed in her left hand blocked the commander's horizontal sword swing.
Xavier realized one thing as his two swords clashed with those two black spears: the weapon Sataniciela absorbed the energy of both of his black flame-clad lightning swords. And it begs the question: why was it that his black flame had been able to obliterate the black spear, but now it could not?
Xavier's feet landed, adding thrust to both of his hands. However, Sataniciela was unmoved.
“This black spear is only able to absorb energy when you hold it,” said Xavier replied to a question that arose in his head— at the same time he flowed where to restore the condition of both swords back to how they were.
Sataniciela swung both of her spears with all her might, making Xavier flung backwards a few meters. “Knowing such a simple thing won't give you victory!” the demon shouted while traveling at full speed.
Xavier had no time to respond to the call. Both of his hands were already moving against Sataniciela's amazing spear game. Not only is the movement very effective and efficient, the power is also extraordinary not to play.
Xavier remembers how Heckart played the spear. However, when compared to Sataniciela, Heckart's spear game is just a children's game. Xavier doesn't know how good Heckart is right now, but he doubts if there's anything better than Sataniciela.
Xavier's sword for the umpteenth time brushed aside the black spear of Sataniciela, and this time he constantly flowed his mana to maintain the shape of his two swords. His head was tilted, narrowly avoiding the other demon's spear thrust. Before the position of his head back to its original position, he was again forced to pull off the other Sataniciela spear punch.
Their fight was going on at a high speed. In the eyes of ordinary people, all they saw was a whitish-blue flash that moved there and there that Xavier's lightning had caused. They could not see the figure of Xavier and Sataniciela, so fast they. What followed the rapidly moving flash was only the sound of the impact and the lightning spark itself.
Unwilling to continue being in a defensive position, Xavier coated his lightning armour with the black Enchanted Flame Armor, instantly making his speed increase. The increase in automatic speed makes the power that the swing of the pedal to release stronger. As a result, this time Xavier successfully for the first time to bounce the two spears of the devil.
The face of the demon for the second time was tinged with shock, and it was immediately Xavier made use of by floating his right foot to the left side of Sataniciela's head.
Although surprised both spears escaped from the hand, Sataniciela still had time to lift her left hand to block Xavier's kick. However, it was not enough to dampen the power that was behind the kick. As a result, the woman who claimed to be the strongest demon was blown dozens of meters away.
“Not bad,” said Sataniciela as she absorbed the black flames that were clinging to her left arm with the right palm—then the arm regenerated itself. “Xavier von Hernandez, that's your name, right?”
Xavier did not answer that question. Each of the fifty magic circles had manifested on his right and left, all of them whitish blue. Of course Xavier knew attacking someone who could absorb mana was a waste. However, Xavier realized one thing at the moment: Sataniciela could only do that with the palm of her hand. That is, the spell will be useful if Sataniciela can not point her palm at the spells.
“I'll remember that name.” Sataniciela again created a black spear in each of her hands— and at the same time two horns that were shaped like rabbit ears sticking out of her head. “A powerful being like you, no matter how disgusting it is, still deserves respect. Here, go ahead, I'll crush you to formless.”
