《Rend Asunder》Chapter 7 - Unprecedented Part 2
Advertisement
Oh yeah! It felt so damn great every single time this power overflowed in me. My body felt so light that it seemed like I could do anything. I am all ready to go for a little exercise!
“How dare you resort to dirty tricks!?” I yelled at the old hag who thinks she is quite pretty just because she has a womanly body. Although she transformed to what resembled a siren, she did not look any younger.
“Oh? You have a demon inside you as well? You really are an interesting boy.” The hag stopped her singing and responded with a smile.
“Heh, are those your last words before you die, you old hag?”
“Old hag? You really are a cheeky one are you? We are all prepared in case a possessed like you gets in the mix you know?”
The bartender, a waiter and a waitress stepped out and transformed as well. The bartender became a plant like man and his arms became elongated as if there are no longer any joints in his elbows and his hands became like mouths of a carnivorous plant. The waitress’ lower half became that of a snake, her fangs also grew sharp and her tongue became long. She resembled a snake woman with curved blades attached in her arms. The waiter on the other hand became something like a werewolf but his fur, tail and ears resembles that more of a fox than a wolf.
Even I might be in trouble if I were to face one versus four against major demons. I guess I am just lucky that these guys before me are nothing but a trash of lesser demons. I am sure as hell by the energy they give out. I guess killing four industrial wastes is a decent work out.
“A siren, a plant, a snake, and a fox. What a lovely collection! How cute!” I provoked.
“You really haven’t realized your situation, don’t you?” The plant replied.
“We have you outnumbered.” The snake added.
“You cannot escape!” The fox growled.
“So boy, how about you surrender already? It feels like what you have is more or less a major demon. Join us and together, we will be unstoppable!” The siren declared.
“Oh please! I am already unstoppable alone, I do not need heavy burdens like you leeching off me!”
“You really are full of yourself! Teach him a lesson!” The siren commanded.
The fox rushed in first and attacked me. He used his right and left claws alternately but his movements are so dull and easy to read that it was no problem dodging them at all. The snake then joined the fray, she used the blades on her arms to try and slice me up but just like the fox, she just alternated left and right that it was painful to watch. These guys are not used to fighting, not at all.
“Hey, hey, hey! You guys are but a bunch of noobs!” I insulted them as I continued to evade their attacks. “I’ll show you guys how to fight!”

The fox attacked me again with his right claw. I dodged it by swaying my body to the right then kicked his abdomen then I grabbed his right arm then threw him to the snake that sneaked behind my back. The fox collided with the snake which sent them crashing to a table.
The plant guy joined the scuffle from afar using his long disgusting arms. He tried to chomp me using the large mouths on his right hand which I dodge then countered with a kick. The left mouth then chased me but I grabbed a table from beside me and chucked it inside its mouth, it struggled to spit it out but it can’t seem to get it out.
“How about it old hag? See the difference in power?” I asked while I stretched my arms.
“You should have killed them when you had the chance. Underestimating us to this extent is your own doing.” The siren then sang again but it was not a slow song like the first one. It is more like a fast dance type of song, a tune where you can dance jive maybe?
The plant guy who was struggling with the table somehow easily chomped it to pieces, breaking it free. The fox and snake stood up as if nothing happened. The fox rushed at me again but he was way faster this time but still not too fast for me. He slashed me using his right and left claws which was easy to dodge but then he mixed a kick in his simple combo which I did not anticipate. I used my arms to block the kick which knocked me back for a bit.
After a distance between the fox and me was made, the snake then attacked me to not give me a single moment to rest. She was also way faster than before as she used the blades on her arms to attack me. She attacked with the left, then the right, then the left while swerving her body then she suddenly tried to constrict me using her snake tail which I was able to get free from by jumping up.
As I was in mid air, I was met with the mouth arms of the plant guy which tried to swallow me whole. I spun in the air then kicked the right mouth arm, deflecting it away. The left mouth arm then tried to get a go at me but I was able sink my claw on its lip part that enabled me ride above it. As I was riding the mouth arm, I did not notice that the fox was behind me, he then gave a kick to my back which sent me back to the ground.
I landed face first into the ground. It would have hurt so much if I was in human form. I stood up to get back to the fight but the snake girl was already around me before I noticed, constricting me tightly in its body.

“Hey, I wouldn’t mind you doing that if you are on you human form, you know?” I teased the snake girl but then she tightened her grip which made it harder to breathe. “Urgh!”
“So boy, any last words before you die?” The siren stopped singing and asked me.
“Argh... Can I at least know... why you are doing this?” I struggled to talk due to the snake’s constricting grip but I was still able to get my words across.
“I guess I’ll let you know since you gave us quite an entertainment.” The siren then ran her fingers across her long hair. “We are merely lesser demons, we won’t survive if we join the war of those they call kings yet we are also meant to go berserk one day even if we don’t. We are just looking at the silver lining of this curse, to use it for our sake while we are still alive.”
“So you... have accepted death?”
“We will die sooner or later anyways even without the curse, men are meant to die. The only thing that varies is when and how. So before it happens, we are taking the opportunity to live life to its fullest!” The woman declared as she opened her arms widely. “Plus human flesh gives you a taste of heaven once you are used to it.” She uttered as she licked her lips.
“Got it... Now I have something to.... report.” I uttered
“Report? To whom? Your dead parents or something? Hahahahaha” The plant guy laughed.
“No no no, it might be the benevolent being they call God! But where is he now? Will he save you?” The fox leaned forward as he tried to provoke me.
“ Death is the finish line boy. You have no one and nothing to report to.” The snake girl added.
“Then welcome to the… finish line” I replied.
I used the power of Forcas that I recently got. I enlarged my right arm which caused the snake’s body to burst out in pieces. I used the enlarged arm to grab the surprised fox and crushed him with my palm and fingers. I quickly returned my right arm to its original size and grew my left arm and used it to pierce the plant guy’s body using my claws.
“It is you guys who should have killed me when you had the chance! Hahahahahaha!” Killing all of them instantly like that when they thought they won was soooooo satisfying!
“What?” The siren who was smiling mightily just a while ago had a twisted look on her face, a mixture of fear and confusion as she was covered with splatters of blood from the exploded snake girl’s body.
“Hahahaha, what a beautiful face that is!” Her face was very fun to look at that it almost sent my heart pounding. That was priceless! On the verge of victory then suddenly crushed into defeat in just a second. I better do this more often.
I walk closer to her as I lick the blood off from my palms to my claws. Her eyes were on the verge of tears then fell from the chair she was on a while ago.
“No, no, no, no!” She crawled away in fear while screaming. “I’ll serve you! I’ll give my whole life to you! I’ll do what you want! Please don’t kill me!”
“Oh? I thought you guys already accepted death? I am just a messenger to give it to you!”
“Please, no! Please! This was not supposed to happen! We were supposed to be able to take down a major demon together!”
“It just means you did not accept death. You lied to me. You are just using it as an excuse so that you can act superior to the weaker ones when you are merely trash yourself!”
“Alright! I don’t want to die! I am trash! Just please don’t kill me!”
“Hahaha!” I am now directly in front of her as I laugh to my heart’s content. This is fantastic! Utterly amazing! I could get used to seeing this damned face every day! “But you lied to me, so you clearly deserve a lesson. Let me punish you a little, okay?”
I used my claws slash at her legs and arms she was so proud of. I made sure that the wounds I left was deep enough that it is sure to leave a scar. Then I slashed across her face, four diagonal wounds are now located from her forehead to her chin.
“You! Why you!” The siren’s eyes which were previously coated in despair were overcome with anger as she touched her face and saw blood on her hands! “You are just a bottom feeder just like me! A demon like you will also not survive! You will meet despair! Even though you are a major demon, the kings will kill you by a flick of a finger!”
“Hahahahaaha!” This girl is a fantastic example of an ideal prey! I would have loved to eat her heart, too bad she is just a lesser demon, too weak to give me even a speck of power.
“What’s so funny? Just kill me!”
“I’ll kill you alright, but I want to correct something you said before you die.” I moved my face closer to as to take a full picture of her disgusting face. “I am not just some major demon!”
Her eyes widened upon hearing my last words before I pierced her chest using my claws, finally deleting one more trash from breathing the same air as me.
“Aw, the party ended so soon!” I licked across my palm, all covered in blood which soothed my tongue with an extraordinary flavour.

Luck Lockyer
Luck Lockyer was the type of man to smirk in the dark, the expression not for anyone but himself. One of perpetual amusement. The bright side of things were hard to find in the shade yet his amber eyes were always searching. The smirk was his default, he knew it, his friends knew it, his family knew it. It was his most natural state. But the death of everyone close to you can affect a downwards curve on the mouths of even the most stoic people. Without purpose, without anyone to do the job for, Luck Lockyer found himself inside an empty forgotten church. The perpetual smirk on his face had slipped to a thin line, his scar more noticeable now than ever before. His amber eyes, the windows to his soul, dull and lifeless. To anyone who knew him, it was the clothing that gave away his mental state, denim pants and a plain black t-shirt. If that wasn't enough, the tears running down his face certainly would, the echoing sobs of a broken man rang across the rundown church. It was on a whim, but Luck Lockyer prayed, he prayed for many things, for death, revenge, friends, but the one prayer dominating his thoughts, a second chance for his family. That was all he wanted. Simple. It was then, on the outskirts of a polluted city, in an abondoned lot, in a forgotten church that Luck Lockyer, the Devil of the Cards, the Bloodless Hand, the Amber Demon, the Broken, was answered by a being from another world and one from his. *found the picture online
