Chapter eleven-Bull rush
Stopping to catch her breath she thought about how she should deal with her new threat.
Morgur was one of the physically strongest demons in the ninth plain of hell she knew that even with her impressive combat capabilites she would never in a million years be able to match him in physical strength.
But she remembered his very obvious weakness which was his very low intelligence very few beings could match him in physical might but a regular adult human would be able to outwit him he was a brutal fighter but was all brawn and no brain which left her at a intellectual advantage.
True she could've just frozen him solid but he also could've just smashed his way out of the ice whenever she froze him.
She pondered her options then remember those portals again.
She hoped that she'd get lucky and those corridors would appear within his chambers as well.
She also figured that there was a few more guards and probably a captain or two.
Letting out a growl she placed her foot on the wall and summoned a large blast of ice which destroyed the door effectively clearing the doorway for her.
And her hunch was correct standing in front of her was the massive bull-like demon clutching a massive duel sided battleaxe in his claws.
The demon snarled "you will die here!".
There was four knights with two archers around him but two of the knights had been impaled with metal and wood from the door she had just exploded thus killing them.
The two remaining knights drew their swords as their captain appeared.
It was a Minotaur and it stood about six feet tall and was bascially a smaller version of Mongur in front of her.
*"Hmm...this just got interesting"* she thought as the three demonic beings rushed at her.
She raised an ice sword and paired the blow from the Minotaurs axe before twirling it around and stabbing the second knight demon.
As the first demon tried to jab her with her sword she grabbed it's blade and froze it thus freezing the demon as well.
Shattering the knight she took the blade from the knights gut and slashed its head off.
The Minotaur charged her and slammed into her and it was all she could do to avoid his horns and hold them back from stabbing into her chest.
She seen Mongur move to strike her from behind and she swung and and threw her sword hitting him in the knee as she bellowed and was distracted trying to get it out.
Jumping back wards she avoided a swing of the minotaurs axe before he swung again this time she create a staff and blocked it.
Locking it with his axe she jumped over his head landing with her back to him as her staff still locked with the axe was brought around the minotaurs neck.
After struggling with him for a few more moments she pressed it agasint his neck and twisted it snapping the demons neck killing it instantly.
Dismissing her staff she picked up the axe and faced the horned demon.
Mongur snarled and gave out a great bellow as he charged her.
He was just following his primordial instincts as his head slammed into the wall above her when she had realized that maybe that WAS his plan.
Rocks and other chunks of the wall started to crumble and fall down towards her.
Rushing quickly she barely avoided being crushed by the rocks when one landed beside her and knocked her off her feet.
Stunned she could just make out from her blurry vision that the two archers had loaded their bows preparing to fire and finish her off.
Shaking her head she cleared her vision but it was to late and she wouldn't of had enough time to evade the arrow.
But just as it fired she wondered if it was either fate or luck or something else was at work but she noticed the twinkle of a golden dot and s portal suddenly appeared swallowing the arrow instantly.
The knight who fired titled his head and looked around clearly confused by this whole ordeal as Frost stood and found the axe again and this time she was gonna use it.
The knight drew another arrow and began to pull it after the portal in front of her had closed.
But before he could fire another corridor opening behind him and the very arrow that he had just fired flew from it instantly sticking him in the back if the head and killing him.
The other demon whipped around to see his buddy killed by his own arrow as Frost threw the axe and impaled him in the chest.
Mongur had pulled his horns out of the wall and charged her again she in which dived in between his legs causing him to miss and get stuck in the wall again.
She wondered how her angel allies where doing occsionally she still heard the far off explosion which probably meant they where still fighting.
"Let's go keep them from reinforcing the Hell-lord!" Said Rose using a staff that fired off mutiple beams of light that killed several flying imps.
"Rose is it true that if we fail here he will march and claim the heavenly realms for himself-!?" Asked Serena cutting a large flying demon in half.
"We aren't here just to avenge Frosts fallen family though that's a given but in short yes that's his plan knowing him-!" Replied Rose evading a ball of Hellfire.
"There's to many of them we need more reinforcements!" Said an angelic warrior before he was hit by a ball of fire and turned into light.
"Erghhh!" Cursed Rose as she fired ofd a large beam of divine energy cutting a line of craters into the hellish landscape killing several dozen demons.
"Just keep fighting eventually they will give up and run away like they've always had!" Said the Angel captain
"All do respect sir but how long will that be-?!" Asked Rose whk ducked under a claw and the demonic assailant was stabbed by Serena
"..good question" he muttered quietly.
Frost Stared down Mongur who snarled and said "you die today!" And swung his massive battle axe down wards.
Frost evaded tho was knocked to the ground again as she fired a blast of ice energy into his shoulder hardly flinching him.
Getting up quickly she ran around him pelting him with icicles though again they hardly even scratched him.
She gritted her teeth in frustration as his tail slammed into her sending her flying back into the wall.
"Fuck-!" She yelled out and couldn't move as her body mended itself.
The bull-demon snarled in triumph and prepared to stomp her to death.
Seeing another twinkle start to appear above them she got an idea a crazy and very risky idea but it was her best chance to defeat the horned demon.
Standing up she fired a massive gust of ice filled wind into his foot causing him to lose his balance and as he struggled to regain his composure she rushed forward.
Rolling forward she landed on her back and hoping she timed it right summoned all her energy she could as the horned demon probably weighed several tons total.
She sighed mentally in relief as the air was strong enough to lift the massive demon far into the air and just as she did the twinkle went out and the biggest portal she ever did see opened up taking up the entire room.
But what troubled her was that this time she could see through it to the other side and on the other end was a world that once must of been beautiful but now was barren,ash filled,grey and lifeless with in the distance tall faceless beings walked apperently on patrol for someone or something.
Her part of the plan had worked as the portal began to very quickly close and he wasn t fully threw the portal but he was still far enough so that when it fully closed it severed his head.
His now lifeless body fell back down to the ground heading straight to her she in once rolled out of the way and was sent flying into the wall again by the sheer force of the impact from the demons now deceased body.
She could barely muster enough force to stand up again as she spotted his essence trying to reform within this chamber as she like the last general she faced forced it into an orb and absorbed it into her chest.
Instantly her stamina returned she not only felt energetic again but she also felt a great many times physically stronger now though she appeared exactly as she did before the battle.
She felt as if she could run forever and casually beat anyone in an arm wrestle now.
Cracking her knuckles she turned and faced the third door unlike this door she couldn't tell who was on the other side of the door so that left either the knight demon who's name was Akure or the spider demon Achkra
But she remembered that the spider demon Achkra was her fathers second in command which wouldn't make sense to send her in next after the last general.
Which left only one answer to who was next.
