DxD: Shadow Monarch

—--------------

Chapter-73

—--------------

Unconsciously a small smile appeared on my face as I opened my mouth and replied to her proposal "Fine"

I agreed to her proposal only because I don't think I will lose and it's not due to confidence but it's because due to my current strength

Even though this world can withstand my powers, that doesn't mean I can't destroy this world at my will but I won't do it otherwise I won't be any different than 'him'

After hearing my reply, a smile formed on her face like she already had won as she stood there like she was waiting for me to attack

Oh, I guess thats her pride as a dragon to let the opponent attack first in the duel, well that works for me. so let's start with 7 per cent of my full power to let her know what I am capable of

With that I took the leap and appeared in front of her, she looked very shocked because of my speed but I didn't give her any time since this was battle and aimed at her guts with my fist

*Bang*

my punch made her fly backwards as she crushed into walls, resulting in making a huge hole into that wall

"Take this seriously otherwise you might get killed," I said this in a serious tone like I was giving her a last warning to take me seriously, otherwise it won't be good for her

She stands back up again with her slightly trembling legs, damn I guess that punch must have hurt her alot but her fault for having a posture full of openings

*cough*

She coughed out blood, but she clenched her teeth and immediately wiped the blood off her mouth with her hand as she took out her wings and rushed towards my direction

In between I saw her hand transformed into a dragon claw, seeing I couldn't help but feel good after all she was finally taking this seriously as I prepared to block her attack rather than dodge

... 

After 3 hours….

*cough* *cough*

Looking at her who is now in such a pathetic state, I couldn't help but want to pity her, sadly it will only hurt her damn pride 

She is right now kneeling on her knees while continuously coughing blood and her entire body is covered in injuries and bruises but still, she hasn't given up yet which is admirable

Honestly, I never thought she would be able to fight me that long but her strong will Or maybe pride never allowed her to back down, sadly soon her body broke down 

"Tell me, w-what *cough* are you?" she asked this as she coughed out more blood while she looked at him

I didn't answer her question more like I can't answer her question because… I don't know what should I say. Am I human or a monarch or should I say I am from a different world

"...Take this and I will admit my defeat" After a brief moment of awkward silence she spoke, she is still did not give up even in the condition she currently in

As soon as she finished speaking, a huge energy started to generate in her mouth, in fact, it was so hot that the surroundings started to melt even her treasures would melt if she kept going

Damn it, she gonna destroy her own home, I quickly charge towards her as I put my left hand which is covered with bandages onto her mouth before she could do her suicidal attack while I put another hand onto her chest

*BLAST*

she shoots fire which is hot enough to incinerate anything and everything in this whole area, I reinforce my left hand with shadow energy in order to negate her blast while I use my other hand in order to make sure she survives

*sigh*

After a few minutes, her attack stopped, not because she had given up but it was because she now become unconscious

After confirming her life was not in danger, I gently put her on the ground but to think she would go to such lengths as using her own life force just to win, why? 

If she died then I would have felt guilty because I was the one who barged into her home and asked for a fight when she didn't do anything to me

'But she sure is something…' I said this in my mind as I looked at my left hand, the hand itself is fine but all my clothing, as well as bandages, got burned in the process and most importantly I got a small bruise

Even though my whole left hand is covered in scares due to that final battle between me and the monarch of destruction in past still i can see and feel clearly what was the impact of her fire breath or whatever name that attack has

And not to mention I reinforced my hand with shadow monarch energy, even though it was only meant for defensively but still her power in this attack was enough to penetrate my defence itself is a shocking fact

'Oh, she is waking up' I inwardly said as soon I saw her moving eyebrows, I have to say her body recovery is excellent even then I lent her a hand but still recovering consciousness after using such life life-threatening attack in just a few minutes is insane 

And I will be honest her attack only stopped because her exhausted body gave up the result she lost consciousness, it was like a cycle because I was neutralising her attack at the same time I was healing her

In the end, she passed out due to her already exhausted body giving up as she passed out, but she almost destroyed her home and lost her life for what? 

She did this but why? Is it because of her pride of not wanting to lose after saying many things? Or did I somehow intentionally hurt her emotionally? but anyway it's better to ask these questions face to face rather than making baseless assumptions
