Alpha Reborn!



The demon was consumed by an intense fury, its wrath surging to a level it had never experienced before. Even when it learned the truth behind its survival, that it was spared from being killed like its kin only to be locked up in the foreboding Monster Tower as a training tool for the younger generation, it did not feel this outraged.

At that time, it burned with hatred, yet the intensity of that emotion paled in comparison to the present moment.

The demon's mind was now consumed with thoughts of sinking its teeth into Evan's flesh, tearing him apart, and devouring him.

It was prepared to make this happen, even if it meant sacrificing its own life!

Its vitality surged. A miracle took place. It wound closed at a visible rate! 

Swoosh!

Without warning, the demon charged towards Evan with surprising agility for its massive size.

But, just as it was about to strike, Evan swiftly swung his sword.

The blade connected with the demon's body, and with a sickening sound, the creature was cleanly bisected vertically from the middle. Its two halves tumbled to the ground with a heavy thud. 

It was followed by a moment of eerie silence as the spectators registered the scene of a demon from the second layer of hell being killed by Evan in stunned silence. They were awestruck by the sight and couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration towards the young prince.

"It is said that even a group of soul manipulators would struggle to slay a demon from the fiery depths of hell. Yet, His Highness Evan has managed to single-handedly take it down with his unrivaled swordsmanship," one of the spectators murmured in awe.

"He is not a single person. He is an entire fucking unit!" exclaimed another, unable to contain his excitement.

But their celebration was short-lived as one of the more experienced cultivators among the crowd cautioned them, "Hold your horses; the battle isn't over yet."

Perplexed, a spectator asked, "What do you mean?"

The cultivator's response was solemn as he cautioned the spectators, "Killing a demon from the fiery depths of hell is never an easy task. Its kind possesses extraordinary regenerative abilities that make them extremely difficult to slay. We must always remain vigilant when fighting them and never let our guard down. It was ignorance of their regenerative capability and a general lack of caution that led to the deaths of many cultivators in the previous war. If His Highness was attentive during history class, he would know not to underestimate the Fire Horned demon." 

The warning from the experienced cultivator sobered the spectators, and they shifted their gaze to the screen broadcasting Evan's battle in the Monster Tower.

All eyes were fixed on the two halves of the demon lying motionless on the ground, waiting to see if there would be any sign of life.

The air was heavy with tension as they held their breath in anticipation.

For a moment, there was nothing but silence as they waited to see what would happen next.

Evan, being the willful prince he was, had never been one to pay much attention in history class. As a result, he was unaware of just how formidable the fire-horned demon's regenerative abilities could be, but he had another way of knowing whether the demon was truly dead or just acting the part.

A moment passed, but he was still yet to receive the notification from his system that would confirm the demon's demise. This realization hit him like a ton of bricks - since he hadn't received it, it could only mean that the damn demon was still alive!

"What a tricky opponent," Evan muttered under his breath, realizing how tricky his adversary truly was. It was still alive, but it was acting like a corpse to catch him off guard.

Even cutting it in half didn't seem to do the trick, leaving Evan wondering what could possibly kill it.

'Let's see.'

With a scrutinizing gaze, Evan examined the demon and activated his inspection skill to uncover any potential weaknesses that could be exploited to defeat it.

Name: Fire Horned Demon Level: 18

Attributes:

• Strength: 120

• Agility: 88

• Stamina: 170+

Skills:

• Innate Regeneration: Allows the demon to heal from any wound, making it incredibly difficult to defeat.

• Bloodline Skill - Fiery Wave: Releases a powerful wave of fiery energy that scorches everything in the demon's surroundings.

• Skill Crystal - Second Life: Allows the demon to create a Life Orb that, unless destroyed, makes it virtually invincible. The Life Orb is stored in the demon's head and can be used to regenerate its health when necessary.

'I see. So that's the secret to its immortality.'

Evan focused intently on the demon's severed head and made a swift move to plunge his sword into both halves. The demon was caught off guard and panicked at the sight of Evan's unexpected action.

Although it was taken aback, it took appropriate actions within time to save its life.

Suddenly, the demon's body convulsed, and it stood up, swiftly dodging Evan's attack before merging back into one complete entity.

"Fiery Wave!" 

Its eyes emitted an eerie glow as it extended its hand. A fraction of a second later, a burst of fiery energy surged from its body, consuming the clearing, liquefying the barrier, and igniting the trees in the vicinity. The flames were incredibly intense, reducing everything they touched to ashes at a rate visible to the naked eye. 

The spectators of Evan's live stream gazed at the humanoid devil displayed on the screen, a blend of unease and terror etched on their faces. 

"What in the world was that?" they cried out in bewilderment.

"I have witnessed infernal beings from the second layer of hell utilizing this ability during the previous war. It's known as their lineage skill - Fiery Wave! It's a merciless assault they resort to when their sole intention is to annihilate everything in their sight!" the elderly cultivator elucidated before joking, "It seems like His Highness Evan had angered it to the point it lost its sanity."
