Chapter 79:The White Demon

[Dome Cave, Inside the Snow Peak Mountain Range]

The moment Asagi was caught within the grasp of the white demon and was crashed to the ground between a hard object and a monster, Both Ariel and Uriel cried out in alarm as they quickly changed their retreating trajectory in one in a charging motion. Upon seeing that Asagi was in mortal danger, they  couldn't help but sprung up in action despite knowing that her present self was only a clone and nothing else. No matter what seeing her in pain caused a trigger in them to act up.

When the two archangel charged forward towards the white demon, the demon itself then quickly took notice of the charge as it growled and swung its arm towards them. As a response Ariel quickly climb into the air to dodge the arm swing, while Uriel quickly dived down  as they both entered their own flying maneuver.

After dodging the attack of the Demon Ariel then unsheathed her short sword as she flew close towards the demons head and thrusted out her sword, at the same time Uriel then went below eye level of the white demon and swung his long sword towards the demon's foot. However the white demon quickly took notice of their quick counter as it pulled back its head to avoid the thrust range and a step backward in order to dodge Uriel attempt to immobilize it.

After that the white demon served its own counter as it kicked its foot forward targeting Uriel, while also getting farther away from Ariel's range. Due to that Ariel then quickly readjusted her posture as she catches up towards the white demon, while Uriel flew back in order to dodge the range of the demon's kick.

However the moment Ariel moved up closer to the demon, the white demon quickly tightened its grip unto Asagi and threw it directly towards the chasing archangel, in just one move Asagi then bumped to Ariel as both of them zoomed crash towards the wall of the dome due to the force that the demon exerted.

Afterwards the white demon took a low crouch to the ground as it suddenly dashes towards Uriel in an incredible speed and tackled him till the pile of blue crystals stacked on one side of the room. With a growl the white demon raises its claws into the air and smashed it down towards Uriel, Luckily Uriel was able to recover quickly from the previous tackle as he raises up his long sword horizontally and block the incoming attack.

Despite stating that the force of the attack was nothing to laugh at as by just one smash, Uriel was then completely pinned to the ground and unable to escape his position.

Gritting in pain from having its whole body ragged down by the demon through force, Uriel then mustered up his strength into his arms as he bellowed out a roar as he tried to push the enormous hand of the white demon away. 

On that not while this was all happening, Irish sneakily ran up behind the white demon as she jumps out from the shadow of the darkness and slashed down her sword towards the demon's neck. But the moment her sword struck the demon, intense numbness then ran course through her arm as she felt like hitting a metal wall when her sword slashed the surface of the demon's neck. In that one exchange Irish notice that her attack didn't even scratch the surface skin of the demon, it was as if the demon itself was immune to any physical damage.

Pushing aside her numbness, Irish quickly jump back into the shadow the moment the white demon notices her existence and swept out his claw towards her direction. Due to that the pressure immobilizing Uriel was then  immediately lifted as he quickly flew up into the air and swung down his longsword across the demon's cheek. In just one slash blood the spurt out from the wound as the red mon arched in pain and begun attacking everything near it, due to that Uriel then had no choice but to quickly take his distance.

The moment Uriel got to another location, Irish then jumped out from his shadow and landed beside him. While they watched as the white demon slowly regenerate its wound, both of them then begun exchanging information they managed to scope in that short exchange.

"How did you damage it?" asks by Irish

"How? with my weapon  of course" answered By Uriel

"The sword?" asks by Irish in complete surprise since she witnessed that her attack didn't even manage to damage the demon, thus she concluded that physical attack doesn't work against it.

"Of course the sword" said by Uriel

"That's impossible! I thought physical damage doesn't work against it?" complained by Irish

"What?"

In the middle of their conversation, the white demon then glared towards their direction as it charged forward and attacked the both of them in a series of flurry movement. Due to that Uriel then instead completely focuses in defending himself, while Irish quickly submerged into the shadow in order to escape its range, thus leaving Uriel to fend for himself all alone.

When Irish left, the white demon then focuses its aggro directly towards Uriel as it sends out multiple attack stack un top of each other. With that Uriel then received three punches in a single breath from the white demon, causing him to be blown away and crash unto the wall of the dome, despite defending himself cleanly.

Not letting him  get away the white demon then chases forward as it tried to finish off the archangel. However in the middle of its charge, Irish suddenly appeared from the demon's blind spot as it struck its back multiple times, before running straight towards it's face and slashing the eyes of the demon. Unfortunately despite all of her efforts, her attack dealt no damage against the demon as her blades couldn't even scratch its skin, causing her to be shocked wide eyed for the first time in her life.

Just before the white demon could fully turn its attention towards her, Uriel then quickly got behind Irish and flew out of the demon's range of attack. No matter what staying within the demon's range while its agitated is a dangerous stunt, no matter how strong a person is.

Through that Irish then begun to complain.

"I knew it! my attacks aren't working against it... so why is yours working?"

"...Its just my presumption but think about it! Its a demon! meaning you need something that has the aura or blessing of divinity in order to damage it... doesn't that makes more sense?"

"... Kinda... what a bias, no wonder people depicted in myth and stories fear the existence of the demons"

"Without weapons as such, humans wouldn't be able to win against a demon"

"Does that mean you can?"

"I can... but it will be tricky"

As they flew away from a safe distance, the white demon then charged forward as it suddenly blinked behind him, causing both of them to react in surprise.

"Crap!" cursed by Irish

"... Take cover!"

Tightening his hold on Irish into a hug, Uriel then blocked the next attack of the white demon with his whole body as they both crushed to the ground front first. However since Uriel was fully protecting Irish with his whole body around her, Irish then didn't sustain any mortal injuries while Uriel's body could be seen cracking apart due to the demon's attack.

"Hey! Your injured!"

"... No shit sherlock"

Unfortunately the attack didn't stop there as the white demon lounged itself forward with an intent to finish the both of them off. In that moment however Leon went in front of both Uriel and Irish as he raised up his shield and smashed his shield towards the approaching face of the demon.

"Shield Bash!!!"

Completely stunning the white demon from his sudden entrance, Leon then thrusted his lance forward as he plans to puncture through the demon's neck. Sadly to say that didn't go as planned as his attack completely stopped on the surface of the demon's skin and couldn't pierced through its body at all.

Just like what Irish experienced, Intense numbness course through Leon's arms as he too felt like attacking a hard wall when he attacked the demon. Nevertheless he didn't stop moving as he quickly pulled away his lance and decided to smash it toward the demon instead of his initial plan to pierce through it.

Despite its miniscule result, his sudden change of attack did manage to deter the white demon, as his every smash towards the demon's body caused it to take a few small step back. After that when Leon delivered his 26th smash, a volley of mana shots coursed through the air as it rained down towards the white demon.

From afar Amos opened up 4 of his portal behind him as four cannon muzzles pops out from it and begun is barrage towards the demon. Due to him being blown away at first contact, Amos was then late from the fight as he tried to regain his footing. Since time have passed, he was able to recover quickly and begun his counter attack.

Likely said due to the current circumstances wherein they are inside a mountain range, Amos couldn't exert his full force against the enemy. Whenever he attacks, his mana shot would naturally cause an explosion which could be detrimental for them. One he could exhaust the oxygen of the cave far faster from generating it, two his explosions could trap them inside the cave with the demon forever, and three there is a chance they might be buried alive if he goes full throttle.

Due to that he had no choice but to restrain his full power indoors.

Of course Amos himself isn't slow on the uptake, the moment he saw that his first volley didn't do anything against the white demon, he then increases his portal into 10 as he fired them towards the demon and fully concentrated its shot towards its head. Soon after he realized that his tactic also didn't bare any fruition, he then added more mana unto his mana shot instead of further increasing his available weapons.

Through that he then saw some slight improvement in his attacks, as he slowly force the white demon to fend for himself instead of tanking his shot. In fact the force of his previous shot were equal to a 6 grenade stacked together and exploded in close range, this time by upping the force of his impact equivalent to being hit by a speeding bullet train, he was then able to further increase the speed of his shot while also increasing its force of impact.

With Amos fully occupying the demon's attention, Leon then charges forward as he slammed his shield against the demon's left ankle causing it to kneel on one foot. Seeing that the suppression was becoming successful, Irish then quickly got up from the ground and quickly restrained the  white demon's movement using her shadow.

"Shadow Bind!!!"

As the shadow quickly entangles itself around the white demon, the demon itself then roared in agitation as it tried to break free from its restraint's. From that Ariel quickly dashed towards the white demon from afar and struck her sword towards the white demon's other knee. In that the demon was now in a full kneeling position as it slowly gets strapped by Irish spell.

As if that wasn't enough Asagi could be seen flying above its head as she casted a huge magic circle above the demon and activated a devastating spell.

"Hammer of the divine judge!!!"

Like a its name stated, a huge amount of power then blasted out of the magic circle as it forcefully pressured down the white demon. If it weren't for its physique and species, the white demon would have turned into mush at first contact with her spell. However despite the spell suppressing the demon from moving, it still wasn't enough to completely kill it off.

Due to that Asagi once more begun casting a spell in the air as she plans to completely kill the demon in her next strike. But before she could fully cast the spell, the white demon's aura suddenly exploded into a spike which literally blew everyone away from it like a doll having its string cut loose.

In just one surge of aura, the white demon finally broke free from the shadow's restrains as it was also able to completely break the divine spell when Asagi got blown away. Baring its sharp teeth towards its opponent, it then turned towards Asagi as it charges forward like a crazed animal let loose.
