Chapter 12: XI : Enter Tribtion


    Returning to the ce where the central ck pir was located.


    “So you think you can easily kill a demon with your puny little power. A novice like you stands no


    chance against me.”


    “The snake demon who took Ethan’s body awhile ago, “ Mat said while still lying on the ground and


    being held by this demon Orochi.


    Summer peaked again, she knew Mat’s worn out body stands no chance against his opponent. Then


    she felt something different. Her knees shaken as she stood. She suddenly felt weakened and dropped


    on the ground, she tried to resist the feeling but it was too strong. She was already lying on the ground


    as she watches Mat prepare for the opponent’s next attack.


    “What is happening? I felt as if all my energy dropped down to zero in an instant.” Summer thought.


    Mat was waiting for the demon’s next move but his opponent seems to be diforted by this strong


    gravitational pull. Orochi fell on his knee as he tried to fight back against this force that is pulling him


    down. Mat, on the same hand, felt it too.


    “What is this very strong unseen force that even this demon is affected with?”


    A loud crumbling voice was heard that appeared to being from the central ck pir.


    “Orochi, restore and proceed to the n on the next ne!”


    “I understand my lord, it shall be done.” Orochi said while slowly fading away like a ck smoke in front


    of Mat. “Lucky you Mat Adam.”


    Almost three seconds passed and nothing happened. Neither a movement nor a sound was heard.


    The ground started to shake, gradually increasing the intensity as the Demon lord Casus’Lucem started


    to climb out slowly from the huge ck central pir.


    Mat and Summer wasn’t able to do anything but to look at each other and fight back against this pulling


    force that was keeping them down on the ground.


    Arge arm made ofpressed ck smoke came out of therge pir and mmed its palm on


    the ground. The whole arm was as long as an average human adult.


    The ground rumbled some more as moltenva burst up from the crevasses nearby.


    Mat tried to crawl to Summer’s direction.


    Casus’Lucem finally reached and pulled himself out of the ck hole that was covered by this ck


    beaming pir.


    The Demon lord stands twice the size of an ordinary human. His body was fully built and well-


    tightened, he has four horns and his eyes were glowing red. His skin was red and ck and it was


    being radiated with ck shadows all over. His teeth were as sharp as those of a lion, and a pair of


    wings that expanded more than four meters to be exact, wings simr to that of a bat.


    Casus’Lucem stretched his body from its years of prison and let out a loud yell.


    It was like seeing an embodiment of evil. It brought terror all throughout the area.


    Casus’Lucem stretched his left arm with his palm facing Mat. A massive ball of dark energy started to


    build up like a sucking vortex throughout the entire ce. Casus was about to release it and send it to


    Mat when a quick sh hits him on his left hand.


    “What? Thest Carrier of the Seal lives.”


    The distraction somehow interrupted the strong gravitation pull and allowed Mat to rush to Summer and


    then quick leaped away with her to a safer distance.


    “Wait, Mat, I think someone’s still inside that small pir.”


    “Yes, I know, but we have to wait for a right timing. I wonder who made that attack on that demon?”


    Meanwhile, the Demon lord, tilted his head with a displeased face.


    “You have grown Navigator Sai, you were even capable of easily defeating my pawn Nezumi,”


    Casus’Lucem said with a creepy growling voice that echoed all over the ce.


    Master Navi Sai, who was on the opposite side where Mat and Summer was, wasted no second and


    turned his whole body into pure light. He retracted his ki-de and draws a new weapon. The Divine


    ming Sword. Its me was white and blue. It created waves of circle expanding out away from his


    body.


    Casus’Lucem started moving and attacked Navi Sai with all his brute force. The attack was so fast that


    it could not be seen by any ordinary humans.


    Navi’Sai quick leaped in and shed Casus’ right arm, and with a quick motion he maneuvered away


    from Casus’ left arm which tried to ripped him. Then Navi created five shes within two second then


    quick leaped away from the Demon lord. Casus’Lucem’s wings fell to the ground in pieces.


    “Let’s go Summer, Master Navi is buying us some time.” Mat said while moving with Summer back to


    the small ck pir.


    “OK, here it goes.” Mat said as he lit up his seal. He tried to put in his glowing left hand thru the pir,


    and finally, he was able to pull out thest captive soul.


    “A young swordsman…” Summer said while assisting thed while looking at his oversized sword.


    The young man was gasping for air, “Thank you for helping me, whoever you are, my name is Zild by


    the way.”


    “I’m Summer Eve, and this is Mat Adam”


    Casus’Lucem noticed the extraction of soul from thest pir.


    “You’re going to pay for this, humans.”


    Casus’Lucem started to build up a new ball of dark energy.


    Master Navi’Sai tried to interfere once more but this time, the Demon lord teleported away and


    appeared behind Mat Adam.


    “No!” Navi shouted and tried to quick leap to their location.


    “Come on, don’t fail me now seal.” Mat anxiously said while trying to return the young swordsman back


    to the human realm. “Stay close Summer, I’ll try to make a spirit barrier after sending back this guy.”


    Casus’Lucem released the st aiming to Summer instead of Mat who just sessfully returned the


    young swordsman back home.


    Master Navi’Sai appeared toote behind Casus’Lucem before stopping him from releasing the st.


    Mat knew that a quick leap could not save them and the st might just follow them to theirnding

    location. He embraced Summer instead and let out a circr spiritual barrier that covered them and


    hoping that this will reduce the damage that will be dealt to them.


    In a split second, Master Navi knew that Mat still could not dodge nor save them from the fast


    approaching st so he quick leaped and appeared in front of Mat and Summer.


    Mat was readying himself for impact when he saw his master taking the hit from the huge st.


    “Oh no, Master Navi’Sai!”


    “Mat…” Navi said as his body starts to fade slowly like a burning paper.


    “NO!” Mat shouted and touched Navi’s face and tried to counter the curse from the st before it totally


    consumed his master. Mat invoked his seal to return his master back home, but he was not sure if he


    was able to save him on time.


    “You will pay for that demon!” Mat angrily shouted.
