Chapter 286: CHAPTER 286 - Let's just get on with it...
He wasn\'t feeling cornered like before; right now he had the upper hand, and the only reason he wasn\'t attacking them was because he still wasn\'t physically strong enough to catch up to them if they ran.
All he could do was make magical attacks.
But even when he saw their transformation into their final forms, he was just a bit curious about how much power they packed now.
[Only 7 seconds remain, Alex.]
Sophia, as a good assistant, reminded Alex of the time that he was running out of, and Alex nodded his head at that.
\'I should finish this quickly; Luna might start panicking in a while….\'
Alex muttered inwardly as he looked toward the space fold he had made for Luna.
He had moved quite far from there because the attacks the demons and he exchanged were strong enough to shatter the space around them.
So, fighting close to the space fold Luna was hiding might cause her to get harmed, killed even.
However, the last few attacks were a bit too loud for Luna to not wake up, and with her weak power, neither could she look out of the space fold, nor could she come out.
Luna was just sitting inside the space fold, meditating, pretending to be calm, but for Alex, who could clearly see the emotions she was feeling, it was as clear as it could be.
"Phew…"
Alex released a deep breath before he looked at the dust in front of him.
*Woosh*
But before Alex could make a move, flames roared from the inside of the dust, pushing away everything in its surroundings and revealing the being hidden beneath it….
*Crackle*
A crackling of fire was heard as Alex\'s eyes landed on Malak.
\'Flame possession?\'
But the form Malak had taken made him tilt his head in confusion.
[It\'s not flame possession, but it\'s not much different as well.
It\'s more like flame armor over his body, just like how SD is covering your body.]
Sophia briefly explained Malak\'s form, causing Alex to nod his head in realization.
Malak, right now, was burning with red flames covering his body, even his eyes and clothes.
His skin, which had turned dark red before, was now gaining a browning tint every passing second, making it seem like his body was burning.
His physique didn\'t change; he still had the same streamlined body with compact muscles, but the flames covering his body made him look a bit more intimidating.
The reason for Alex\'s confusion, however, was that his form right now looked like the flame possession/spirit possession/spirit form that Alice takes on when she gets serious.
But with Sophia\'s explanation, his doubts cleared.
*Flap*
As a wave of wind hit his face, Alex\'s eyes turned toward the source of the wind, Valerius.
Valerius was levitated 5 meters above the ground, however, unlike before, now his body was covered in a blood-red membrane, much like the scales of a dragon.
His sharp red eyes were the only thing visible on his body other than his white hair that was flowing down his back.
His nails were now elongated to a 50-centimeter length, though instead of calling them nails, it would be better to call them blood, as they were made of blood, just like his armor.
*Hisssssss*
The sound of ground and air melting caused Alex to turn toward Nyx, who had his arms turned green with a sticky and gooey liquid dripping from it.
Just a single drop of that substance was enough to create a hole as deep as 5 meters inside the earth.
\'That ability would do well if matched with my poison mist…\'
Alex smiled inwardly as he looked at Nyx\'s ability with a bit of green in his eyes.
Nyx\'s hand was covered in that green substance, but just like before, his eyes were lifeless, and his arms were covered in golden runes that could be seen even under the green cover of poison.
*Click*
And finally, Alex\'s eyes moved toward Morvan, causing him to raise his brow in appreciation.
Among all of the demon generals, the one with the most destructive magic power was Morvan, there was no doubt about it.
Yes, it was because of the dragon she had in her summons, but that dragon was her possession, so it was counted as her ability.
Right now, her whole body was covered with white and black bones.
Her shoulders and chest had a pad made of black scales, just like the scales of the dragon that was standing right behind her, even now.
The dragon, however, seemed to be worn out and out of commission because it was slowly going back into the darkness it came from.
"Thank you."
Alex, who heard Morvan thanking the dragon, looked at Morvan\'s clenched fists.
Her fists, just like her other body parts, were covered with bones, but the shape of the bone on her fist was like the jaw of a dragon and they were covered in black scales.
Alex didn\'t need to focus on those dragon head shapes on her fists to know why she thanked the dragon.
His all-seeing eyes could see what was happening as clearly as day.
\'That\'s some insane amount of mana…\'
Alex muttered as he saw the blue-colored mass of energy emanating from Morvan\'s fists.
Only he could see that because of his all-seeing eyes, but the sheer amount of mana on Morvan\'s fists was enough to match the amount of mana one mythical 3 ranker would have.
Her power was suppressed to mythical 1, but her summons powers weren\'t, and that was most probably the reason for her thanking the dragon.
[Like you are the one to speak about the amount of mana when you have an almost infinite amount of mana in your body…..]
Sophia, however, just sighed when she heard Alex\'s internal muttering.
\'Still, how can she do that...?\'
Alex questioned curiously, ignoring the four pairs of cold eyes staring at him.
[Her ability enables her to borrow the power of her summons in various body parts, but she can only do that for one summon at a time-]
Sophia\'s explanation was cut short as Alex just waved his hands internally.
\'I know that as well; I can see the description, but isn\'t her power suppressed?\'
This is what Alex wanted to know the most.
[Yes, it is.
But her body is still the same—the body of a mythical 3-ranker.]
Sophia didn\'t take the way Alex cut her words as an offense; she knew that he didn\'t mean it that way, so she just answered his question.
\'I see….\'
Alex nodded his head repeatedly, finally understanding everything before his lips moved.
"Let\'s just get on with it…"
*Rumble*
He spoke to the four demon generals in front of him, causing them to clench their fists tight enough to cause a rumble in the air.
