Demon Emperor's Rise: Becoming The Greatest Villain For My Daughter
Chapter 29 A Small Raid"Argh!" One pig demon kicked a small demon, who just halted in his tracks to take a breath.
The small demon fell to the ground, and the Common Mana Crystals on its back, scattered around the ground, making that small demon not care about the pain it just got; instead, it quickly went to pick up the Common Mana Crystals in a hurry.
The seven pig demons around it started laughing out loud, seeing the petty situation of that small demon. Its mining companion didn't even look at him, they were busy and worried with the task in their hands.
The pig demon that kicked the small demon went forward to hit him more, as it was bored.
Puchi
At that moment, a blood arrow pierced through its head, dropping it dead.
This sudden turn of events caught everyone by surprise. The pig demons equipped themselves with their clubs and looked in the direction the arrow came from.
They saw a girl in a flamboyant red dress with a skirt that spread like petals, aiming her bow at them as her pink hair fluttered in the hair.
One of the pig demons pointed its club at Ravenna and gave a war cry. "Rarghh-!"
But it got suddenly cut off as its head rolled down from its neck.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Don't make noise." Making a clean cut on that pig demon's head, Max ran toward its companions.
He wanted to kill these guards as quietly as possible, not wanting to catch the demon knights' attention. For that, he didn't use his magic powers and silenced the pig demon, who was about to make noise.
[ Swinefiend (8th Stage Health Seeker) - These types of demons could be seen on the 1st to 3rd floor of the Demon Realm. They are mostly tamed for doing chores that noble demons hate. They are also livestock for many demons. ]
[ Meatscraper (2nd Stage Health Seeker) - These types of demons could only be seen on the 1st floor of the Demon Realm. They live by eating the dead and the scraps thrown by higher-ranking demons. They live in packs to increase their chances of survival. They are mostly violent and have extremely low rationality. ]
This was what Max learned from the system before he came to attack them. These pig-headed demons were called Swinefiend, and these small ones were called Meatscraper.
Max thought he might have a challenge, but after seeing their vitality realm, he knew that wouldn't be the case.
Max ducked backwards by leaning his body, evading the club that came at him horizontally. Then he quickly straightened his body and pierced his katana right at Swinefiend's heart, which was before him.
Giving a twist, he sliced diagonally, killing the swinefiend and making it drop to the ground with blood spurting out from its cut-apart shoulder and heart.
Max dashed forward at the one that was charging at him.
Puchi
But before the Swinefiend was able to come close to Max, its head got pierced by a blood arrow, making it crash into the ground.
The remaining four Swinefiend looked at each other and quickly came up with a plan. Separating in pairs, they each went for Ravenna and Max respectfully.
Ravenna didn't faze after seeing two approaching her; she quickly ran around and ran to the closest Swinefiend's dead body.
The two Swinefiends didn't know what she was doing, but they changed their direction and followed her with all their strength.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Max sidestepped, evading the club that was coming down at him vertically.
Bang
The club smashed the ground into pieces and bits. Max was about to swing his katana to kill this Swinefiend but halted as he felt another one's presence behind him, who had swung its club horizontally at him.
Max grabbed the Swinefiend's head, which was in front of him, and used it to propel himself forward, escaping the attack from behind. While he propelled himself, he used enough force to throw the Swinefiend's head in front of that attack.
Bang
That Swinefiend's club smashed its fellow companion's head, caving its head and possibly killing it.
The Swinefiend became stumped after seeing it kill its own brethren, and in that moment of hesitation, Max came in with his katana swinging, claiming its life.
Thud
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Swinefiend's head was severed from its neck and dropped to the ground.
Max swiped his katana, making the blood on it fling away. Retracting his katana back, Max turned around to see if Ravenna was done. But from the looks of things, it seems she was not.
But Max didn't go forward to help her as he could see a smug smile on Ravenna as she closed in on the dead Swinefiend's body.
Ravenna had come before the Swinefiend's dead body at that moment, she gave a glance back and mumbled. "I have not done this in a long time."
Ravenna jumped up the dead body, floating over it. However, when she was right on top, she turned her body midair and swiped her hands at the Swinefiend duo behind her with such grace that it made Max fall into a daze.
The blood that was coming out of the dead Swinefiend's body churned up and shot towards the Swinefiend duo in the shape of spikes. This attack took the duo by surprise, which resulted in impaling them in the air.

Thud
The Swinefiend's body dropped dead on the ground, announcing the end of this small raid by Max and Ravenna.
Ravenna trotted toward Max and asked with a smile, standing before him. "How was I?"
"You did well." Max said, raising the corner of his lips. He could see Ravenna has improved in combat experience as she didn't use up all of her blood just to kill the rest. She knew she would be faster than them, so she came before the dead body and used it to kill them.
"Now," Max turned his head around and looked at the Meatscrapers hurdling up together in fear of them. "Let me see my future workers."
