Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest-Novel

Chapter 893 A Demonic Aberration

-----

Although a few demonic arms kept attacking, most of them now started to strangely concentrate together into something else. Demons were strange and bizarre lifeforms. They were independent on their own and cannibalized each other too. But when it comes to Hell and its Ruler, they are one and the same. A swarm, a legion. Before his commands, they merge together, they do as their ruler wishes without questions. 

And so, they did. Although they could not come out themselves. Their arms could. And that was more than enough. Dozens after dozens of arms melded together into a giant mass of hands, fingers, eyes, and jaws. Demonic Power constantly being poured into this abomination, as it swiftly separated itself from the rest of the arms.

A being of its own was born. If the demons could not bring themselves out, then they would combine and birth a demon that could go through the portal. A giant of over twenty meters, made of hands and fingers, and covered on crimson eyes and jaws. It spread out its wings, made of several combined palms.

Its body was long and slender, its legs and arms made of many fingers combined together, it had some sort of head, resembling a thumb with a single, spiraling red colored eye. A huge jaw opened vertically, from the thumb all the way down to its "stomach".

The moment this entity emerged out of the portal; everyone held their breath… The presence of overwhelming demonic power it released was otherworldly. The young demon glared at them, the ones that had massacred the arms of their father.

"You… death…! I… KILL."

It tried to speak, too young to develop a mind of its own. Mark was the first one to rush towards him, trying to bring the attention of the demonic aberration to him and him alone. He knew he could take a few hits at least, based on his gigantic body.

"Tree man…"

The demon glanced at Mark, suddenly, it moved. Like a blur of red color, it seemed as if it teleported across space, but it simply moved. It flew at such an incredible speed that it seemed as if it had skipped space itself!

FLASH!

Its two enormous hands reached Mark. The giant Treant swiftly wielded his magic dragon dagger, now turned into a giant blazing sword, four powerful slashes of fire were released. The demon didn't take any of them, they ended hitting the ground instead, as the demon reappeared behind him.

"You damn…!"

As Mark was about to attack with his wings, the demon's arms pierced his joints. His shoulders were destroyed, and both of his giant wooden arms dropped on the floor. The demon's sharp tail quickly pierced his head, destroying it into pieces.

CRAAASH!

Mark's entire body immediately collapsed on the ground; a loud tremor sent shivers down the spine of everyone that were moving towards the demon. The monstrosity glared at them with cold eyes.

"MARK!" Elena cried, shocked to see what just happened.

"You… NEXT."

FLASH!

It moved at lightning speed, resembling teleportation. The demon reached Elena next, its gigantic hand about to crush her to death if it wasn't because several bullets were fired towards its direction. The demon swiftly evaded them, moving faster than their eyes could perceive.

FLASH!

Rita's senses sent alarms all across her body, yet such senses were slower than the demon's speed. Its giant wings flapped as feather projectiles made of blood and darkness were fired towards her. Explosions engulfed her completely.

"Shit! What the fuck…?!"

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Without wasting a second, the demon swiftly directed its gaze to the nearest foe, Rose. It pounced through the empty air and then reached her. Its arms suddenly calling into the blood of its surroundings. Rose was shocked.

"It has blood magic?!"

"Blood… Spear."

With a voice formed from countless voices together, the monstrous aberration attempted to impale Rose with the spear made of blood. The Dhampir barely managed to block with her own blood magic, touching the spear and instantly breaking it down to pieces.

Crack, crack…! 

CRAAASH!

"YOUUU!"

The roar of Albert reverberated behind the demon that seemed shocked Rose wasn't blown away. Golden chains surged from his body, seeking and chasing the demon which flew away at lightning speed. The creature quickly adapted. Its arms shapeshifting into cannon-like growths, harnessing demonic energy and firing two crimson lasers at him.

BOOOM!!

The smoke dissipated to reveal Albert exhausted. His body looked half-burnt, slowly regenerating bit by bit. But he noticed his regeneration had slowed down. Hellberos was getting tired. They wouldn't be able to keep fighting forever.

"Hahh… T-That thing is too fast! And what happened to Mark and Rita?! Are they okay?!" As Albert asked, a giant shadow surged from behind him. "Wha…?!"

"ROOOAAR!"

The mighty roar of a dragon reverberated. Forming itself out of shadows, Rita's gun transformed into a giant cannon, the tip resembling a ferocious blue dragon. A tremendous beam of pure darkness and void reached the demon, who swiftly tried to evade it.

"Not so fast."

Elayne acted in that moment, giant arms made of wood appeared above the demon and from below, trying to overwhelm it with countless punches. The demon evaded every single one of them while breaking her arms to pieces. However, in that time frame, Rita's attack finally connected.

BOOOMMM…!!

The demon was blown away. It protected itself with its wings and a barrier of demonic energy. Both broke apart and were pulverized in the process of the explosion, but the rest of its body remained alive…

"Strong! Must kill… FIRST!"

FLASH!

Even without wings, the aberration leaped into the sky, appearing above Rita on a split second. The woman's eyes could only shift upwards before two enormous hands tried to crush her like a fly. 

BAAAM!!

The demon opened its palms to see Rita nowhere to be seen, only shadow spirits were left behind, exploding the moment it gazed at them, a few fingers flew off from its hands.

"GRRH! Where?!"

The Demon didn't notice that Rita melded with her shadows to escape barely in time. Only for golden chains to wrap around its lanky legs.

"Oi fucker, I'm not done with you!"
