《Re:Demon Lord》Chapter 8 - Being Toyed

[What do I do? No matter how much I try my chapter is always short. I feel like I have written a long chapter but it always turns out short.... anyway I hope this one becomes a long chapter.]
Liela's AKA Wielder Of Aldrake POV
I followed the blood trail which slowly lead me to a beautiful scene. Many would disagree seeing their fellow bretheren's corpse but for me it was magnificent. The corpse all mangled as if it was squish by a giant's foot. All my time in life I have never seen anyone annihilate an army in such a way which sends a shiver of excitement about thinking about it.
After a few minutes I see a little boy... no a little puny demon sitting on a mountain of corpse like he's waiting for someone. The mountain of corpse was made in such a way that it looked similar to a chair.
"Hey!! Where is your lord?" I directly ask him knowing that he must know something about the true demon lord. But instead he just quietly stares at me as if examining me. After a brief moment he smiles, his smile reminded me of someone and that someone was me. With that I knew he was the perpetrator of the letter.
"Hahahahaha.... so you were the one who did all of this. If that's the case then it's time for you to entertain me." I laughed thinking what kind of excitement he could provide me with.
"Is that so? But I am sorry to tell you but rather than entertainment, you will be getting only pain and suffering." He told me while staring at me like a prey after his meal.
With that said he instantly came in front of me and his right hand went for my neck but I am used to this kind of speed. This isn't the first time I had an encounter with a cursed one. They might not have magic but they are totally strong in term of raw power. To see a cursed being with this much potential this early is amazing but alas he's going to die.

I teleported instantly behind and thrust my sword towards his abdomen to make him feel pain and at least enjoy the sight of despair he shows but he counters it instantly and grab my face and slams me in the ground.
"Any last words." With that said he smiled in a very devilish way but even I got surprised by the sudden reflex he showed. To think he had that kind of potential... the potential to entertain me for this long.
"Hahahaha.... to think you had this much potential." I begin laughing.
"Ok!! I have decided to play with you little more." I declare while he shows an astonished face.
**************************************************************************************
What is this? In all my life I have never seem a person or whatever she is show this kind of reaction. She is completely insane. When I first saw her, I thought she was just like all the arrogant elves I killed with slightly better fighting strength but I was totally wrong. I thought she was the prey but instead it turned out that I was the prey.
Her characteristics were she had a long blue hair with silver eyes having sword insignia in it. Her body couldn't be described properly as it was covered by armor of silver. I just thought I would like to see her arrogant face drown in despair but that proved to be impossible because she was similar to me... a Monster.
After our little clash I pinned her to the ground assuming my victory but it was me who was being played around.
"Ok!! I have decided to play with you little more." After she declared that I felt something wasn't right and when I concentrated I felt something was missing.... her eyes looked above me and when I found out what was missing I instantly took a huge side step to get away from her.

BANG a loud thud sounded from her direction and smoke filled that area.
*clap* *clap* Clapping sounds could be heard.
"Bravo! To be able to dodge my sword. As expected of my new toy. Let me play with you some more." She starts spouting non-sense but it was indeed the sword that was missing. Her sword was silver long sword with angels on it's hilt. It was really hard not to notice it. It seems she can freely maneuver the sword like her body, the sword was now floating beside her releasing intimidating aura. Since the sword doesn't produce blood thirst I couldn't sense it in my serene state.
"let's play!!!!" Like a maniac she shouts and her sword charges towards me. The sword's movement was as if it was being wielded by a master swordsman. I dodged each and every attack from the sword and tried to go after the apostle but the sword was very skilled and didn't let it's guard down and never let me off.
Slowly but steadily I became used to it's movement and right after I broke free from the swords rhythm I went instantly for the apostle and tried punching at her abdomen but instead she just casually dodged by telepoting and came behind and whispered
"Did you think I can't fight without my sword?" I just instantly turned around to counter her move but she wasn't there but I got a heavy blow at my side and when I realized that I was kicked, I got blown away and crashed on to a hill.
"Don't tell me that was it? Anyway I am gonna toy with you until I am bored with it." After telling that she instantly vanished and appeared before and tried giving me an uppercut but I dodged it only to get hit by the sword which blew me away and again the apostle comes and kicks me in the air and after that the sword's hilt grinds into my abdomen making me crash into the ground very hard.
"Hahahahaaha.... that was fun it at least lasted for couple of minutes but let's end our little play time." She says while looking like a kid bored with her toy.
To be honest she was very strong, it seems like I underestimated her but she also underestimated me as our battle was just getting started. Right now all my bones are fractured or dislocated but still I get but while my body makes crackling noises of my bones creaking.
"Ah.. such a shame... it seems like you are unable to entertain me more than this.." She says showing a dejected expression. But contrary to her I give her a large grin.
"Let's see how you like it when you are the one who's being toyed with." With that said I activated one of my enhancement technique 'Adrenaline Rush'. Yes, the battle was just getting started.....
[If this is also short then I will release another chapter tomorrow, a quick release to make it up.]

8 103Transmigrated Into a Blind Woman’s Body
"What?!?!” Seeing nothing in her view, she then opened her eyes that had a blindfold covering around her eyes. Seeing colors appear before her as she saw blue in her view, then feeling sadness from above which made her heart ache. ‘Is this… another sense… for my eyes.’ Thinking about it, she did not know if any of this was real or not. “Ning’er! Your awake!” Hearing a woman say, she was hugged by the woman when she could not see who they were. “My silly daughter! Why did you jump into that pond?!” Hearing the woman crying, she had no idea who this was. ‘W-Where did I end up at?!’ Not knowing where she had gone, her mind ran with thoughts since the last thing she could recall was the sound of the bus that she took crashing. *** Time skip… “Are you really fine with a blind woman like me as your wife?” Lin Ning asked the man who had proposed to her. “How many times have I told you.” Wrapping the woman with his single arm, he sealed her lips with his. “Do not ever call yourself a blind woman. You are the woman that I chose out of all of them.” “But…” “Do you regret falling in love with this cripple man?” Cutting her off, he did not allow her to finish.
