Chapter 333: Night Demon.
A few moments of silence passed as Haru stared at the dog before his words seemed to set in and then her eyes widened slightly as she looked up at Haru.
"Why do you smell like my master? What have you done to him?" Wolfy asked as she began to growl at him.
"Seriously, who are you!? How do you know wolfy?" The girl asked as Haru began to stand up before brushing off his clothes from the dust and debris that has fallen on top of him when the building had been turned into rubble.
"You don't know who I am? I didn't expect you to be the kind of person to forget your friends so easily. Maybe this will remind you?" Haru replied with a shrug before unbuttoning his shirt slightly and pulling it down to reveal two necklaces hanging from his neck.
One was golden and in the shape of a sword that he had gotten from Suyin on one of their dates and the other was shaped like a small snowflake.
Wolfy began to growl even more as Haru reached for his shirt but quickly went silent as the girl placed her hand out to signal for her to stop.
"Wait a minute… Haru? Is it really you?" The girl asked after hesitating for a moment to which Haru chuckled slightly.
"It took you long enough to figure it out. It's nice to see you again Mia." Haru smiled before looking down at wolfy who was around the size of a chihuahua.
"What happened to you? I could have sworn you were much bigger than this the last time I saw you." Haru mocked slightly as a flash of red light shot out from the small dog's body before suddenly an eight-foot-tall wolf was standing before him with a hungry look in its eyes.
"Master! I missed you so much!" The wolf called out before running towards Haru and beginning to pounce as it neared him. But Haru quickly held out his hand and placed it against the wolf's head before she could tackle him and then moved the side causing the wolf to slide across the floor and look back in confusion.
Haru looked up at the sky as a dark shadow began to form before vanishing from where he stood.
A loud bang shot through the surrounding area as Haru now appeared, floating in the sky with his arm outstretched as he was holding a car that looked as though it had been launched across the street before he pushed it slightly and it shot back down to the ground with enough speed to make a Crater upon impact.
"Sorry about that. It seems like we have some party wreckers who want to spoil our reunion…" Haru sighed as he spoke before looking down and seeing a small group of demon clansmen charging towards them.
'Hmm, I feel a lot better after seeing Suyin and I feel kind of nostalgic after seeing Mia and Wolfy again. How about I try something I haven't done for a while.' Haru thought as he remembered the first day that he had summoned Wolfy he had used a spell that he didn't know much about as it was written in a strange language.
But he now knew that it was written in the Gaohen language which was the one most widely spoken in the upper realms, but before he simply knew a few words that helped him use a type of magic, unlike anything anyone had ever seen before.
"The grass settles below the horizon of the sun and the moon rises higher than the tops of existence. Fire runs as water burns before becoming its salvation. Absolute Desolation." Haru said quietly as he read the words from the old book he had picked up in his past life but now that he knew the meaning of the words he was shocked to see the true power that was within them.
A thin thread of darkness stretched out from Haru's body as though it was being woven across the city. Silence fell upon the surrounding area as everyone seemed to freeze in place before a dark cloud moved in over the group of the demon clan and the rest of their reinforcements.
The sky quickly turned as dark as night as the sun was obstructed by the power Haru had just summoned.
'What is this? It was never like this before. I thought it would just be big enough to wipe out a couple of them. But at this rate, it will wipe out the lot of them.' Haru thought as small drops of smoke coloured water fell from the clouds as rain.
The demon clansmen looked around at each other in confusion as they tried to figure out what was happening but none of them came to the realisation that their lives would soon come to an end as the rain picked up its speed and showered down upon the army of three hundred demon clansmen.
As the droplets of Smokey water hit the first demon he looked around helplessly as he felt immense pain before his body seemingly combusted into a roaring fire with the flames being the same colour as the raindrops.
The city was filled with cries of pain as all of the demon clansmen were burnt into cinders within a few seconds of the dark cloud forming. It was like nothing anyone had ever seen before.
Haru remained floating in the sky for a few moments as the rain settled, leaving nothing behind, not even a corpse.
A few moments of silence went by before the sound of clothing rubbing against each other made its way to Haru's ears as he turned around to see someone behind him wearing a black cloak had begun to attack him with a powerful kick.
Luckily for Haru, he had heard them before the attack and had time to put his arms up to avoid the kick from hitting him anywhere vital.
The kick collided with Haru's forearms and forced him back down to the ground. As he landed he struggled to keep his balance and slid across the floor slightly before coming to a stop with one of his arms dropping as the bone shattered from the blow.
Haru winced slightly as it was the first time he had felt physical pain in quite a while. He looked down at his arm to see that it was completely out of commission. There was no chance of him fighting with a broken arm.
"Healing Light," Haru said with a smile as a golden light formed around his arm. The bones began to crack and pop as they moved back into place and as he looked up he recognised the person who had just kicked him by their red coloured skin.
"Oh? You can use both the powers of casters and cultivators at the same time. I thought your people were wiped out a long time ago? Who would have known that you were just hiding on this planet all along?" The demon in the hood said as he looked at Haru with surprise in his voice.
'My people? What is that supposed to mean?' Haru thought before he was immediately put on the defensive as the red demon followed up with another attack and shot towards Haru with his arm outstretched as he tried to reach for his neck.
'He's fast.' Haru thought before realising that he couldn't take this enemy lightly. He would have to use his full strength if he wanted to survive long enough to take revenge for Suyin.
Haru stepped back before throwing a low kick to the demon's upper thigh.
The demon's right leg slammed against the floor as he stumbled down onto his knees. He wasn't expecting a low kick and Haru could tell by the look in his eyes that he was worried about the follow-up attack. But it didn't come.
Instead of attacking after downing his opponent, Haru took another few steps back and raised his hands in front of his face.
'I can't rush in with all my strength right away. I feel like he has something up his sleeve. If I defeat him while he is still at full strength who knows what will happen?' Haru asked himself as for some reason he felt as though he had to treat the red demon with the utmost caution as there was clearly something that set him apart from the rest of their clan.
"Aw, that's not fun. You saw through me so easily. Hanying warned me not to underestimate you and it seems like he was right. My kind is hidden among the demon clan as the only people who meet us are always met with death.
As far as I know, you are the only human to ever meet a night demon more than once. You should be proud of that. But it doesn't matter since you're still going to die." The red demon smiled before charging towards Haru once again as he wound his arm back and began to attack.
A/N:
I'm so sorry for the mistake. It happened again. I accidentally mixed up my chapters and uploaded this to the wrong novel. I didn't know what happened and then wondered why my other novel got a boost in views. I will have to upload this today here and then upload my next chapter so please don't mind the repeated chapter if you already read the new one. This will help if you were a little bit lost reading with the huge gap.
