<h4>Chapter 713 Facing The Demon Lord!</h4>
-----
The moment we faced the Demon Army, I was able to instantly tell how many Demon Lords there were out there. I quickly detected three of them. Each one was standing at a cardinal direction, for some reason.
And all three of them exuded a simr amount of Demonic Energy than the one that tried to kill Monica back then. Most likely, these bastards were directly serving another Archdemon.
It is most likely possible that the Demon Overlord that took over Silvertide''s Capital is serving the Archdemons, and these three are his servants.
If that''s the case, the best way to deal with them right away was to just divide and conquer. While our armies took down the sheer, ridiculous amounts of demons, we would quickly go for the behead the general tactic.
Kill the three Demon Overlords overseeing the entire battle and then destabilize the rest of the army. Once they notice their leaders are dead, they will have a really hard time adapting to the situations as easily.
And that''s when we''ll crush them as they run away for their lives.
FLAAAASH!
While we were charging to battle, arge figure descended from the skies, as if it had jumped from really far away. And naturally, as I expected, it was a Demon Lord.
BAAAAAAMMM…!
A huge hulking body made of pure muscles, covered on ck, charcoal skin and ck sharp, metallic scales. With the head of a lizard, and many golden horns.
A hulking body of over six meters of height and zing red eyes. It exuded an aura of great zing power, and darkness.
"You who are bold enough to dare go against our Overlord''s orders… Should really learn your ce. Especially useless bastards like you humans." It spoke with a serious, and furious tone of voice, ring down at Erika who had just finished massacring a hundred demons on her own.
"What? Huh?" Erika nced at the huge hulking figure in surprise. "Wait, you''re-"
"DIEEEE!!!"
His enormous arms moved down rapidly, crushing through the entire floor, and shattering his surroundings mercilessly. The blows were like meteors, one after another, they massacred even the nearby demons!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Naturally, Erika was shaken, but quickly evaded the attacks at the same time as Elizabeth and Eleanora stepped forwards.
"[Spirit Fusion]! [Spirit Weapon]!"
Elizabeth quickly fused with her Holy Dragon, gaining dragon-like scales, wings, and a tail, while holding on a huge shield made out of the Mountain Turtle.
CRAAAAASSSSH!!!
Using such a huge shield, she managed to easily intercept the huge fist attacking from the Demon Lord, at the same time as Eleanora leaped into battle.
"[Vampiric Blood Spear Arts]: [One Million Blood Needles]!"
Eleanora moved her spear rapidly, striking the huge demon lord a million times at once through illusions generated with her own blood and darkness mixed into the attack at once.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!
"UNGH?! T-That attack method…! Those moves…!" The Demon Lord cried in agony, stepping back. His huge red eyes filled with horror. "Y-You''re Eleanora, the Vampire Queen?! T-Then…! No! Has the reincarnated Vampire Emperor finally reached here?!"
The Demon Lord suddenly nced back at me in utter horror, as I stood back there silently, ncing at him with a smile.
"Oh? Have you finally realized who I am, young demon?" Iughed.
His face distorted in horror as his arm was quickly destroyed into pieces by Eleanora. He stepped back in horror.
"Y-You…! Hah… HAHAHAHA! This is perfect! If I kill the reincarnated Asmodeus! T-Then I might even be a Demon Overlord myself!" The idiot said.
"It seems he''s the idiot type." Eleanora joked around.
"What is he saying?" Elizabeth was confused.
"Dunno." Erika shrugged, quickly beginning to shapeshift as her body grew spirit wooden scales, her eyes glowing brightly. "But we''ve gotta just beat him, right?"
"I guess you''re not wrong." Elizabeth smiled defiantly.
"RAAAHAHAHAHA!"
TRUUUUMMMMM…!
A tremendous shockwave of pure Demonic Energy surged from the body of the huge demon. The red and ck colored energies flowing back into his body, as his arm regrew anew, a small red colored jewel shone brightly on his chest.
Another Archdemon Core Shard, I assume…
Ding!
[The [Demon Lord: Darkus] has activated the powers of the Lesser Archdemon Core Shard!]
[His wounds are regenerating back, and his Demonic Energy is overflowing!]
[A Demonic Transformation is happening!]
FLAAAASH!
The pressure that he generated didn''t allowed us to step further, as we nced him transform, gaining a pair of huge wings, and bing more dragon-like. He was a Lizard Demon, but I did know that some could even shapeshift into Demonic Dragons.
However, for that they needed to be as strong as Demon Kings, this guypletely skipped that necessity by using the power of the Lesser Archdemon Core Shard.
His body grew twice as big, and his entire body became even more muscr, covered in an armor of ck scales, and with a creepy smile, as the shard had beenpletely assimted into his body.
"Heheh… HAHAHAHA! Are you scared now?!" He looked at us with a confident smile. "I''ve be so strong not even I can believe myself!"
However, he only was greeted with my smile.
"No, in fact, I am rather happy. You''re such a big specimen. I will dly dissect you and use every piece of your body as my precious materials." Iughed. "I am so grateful that you transformed! I was actually running short on dragon-type materials. You''re of real help."
"Huh?!" Darkus looked at us with a ridiculous expression on his face. "W-What sort of stupid shit are you talking about?! You''re utterly DELUSIONAL!" He opened his gigantic jaws. "DIEEEEE!!!"
TRUUUUUUMMMM….!
A gigantic beam of ck mes emerged from his jaws, reaching us in an instant. However, I quickly leaped forward in front of my party, and pointed my Demonic Arm to it.
"[Demonic Beast Transformation]! [Swarming Gluttony]!"
I activated two of the strongest Demonic Arm Abilities at once, as my entire arm shapeshifted into a huge, monstrous jaw roaring with demonic fury, constantly expanding more and more, and devouring the entire beam!
"…Eh?" Darkus was left speechless.
