Demon Emperor's Rise: Becoming The Greatest Villain For My Daughter

"Where did this thing come from?" Max looked at the giant snake with bewilderment. He was sure he didn't hear anything, and any kind of traps he set were not turned on.

To answer that question, Max saw a screen pop up in front of him.

[ Forest Python ( Grade- 5 Enchanted Beast) - A massive green python that can blend into the forest canopy and strike down on unsuspecting prey from above.

Danger Level - 2 Star ]

'This guy is very stealthy!' Max now understood how it was able to ambush him. Then he saw a shadow cast over his body. He dodged to the right without looking up while saying. 'Thank you, system, for the information.'

Bang

The Forest Python slammed its name onto Max, but it missed. It looked to the side and saw Max running into the forest. Its eyes sparkled seeing its prey go into its home territory.

Max, using his small and agile body, jumped from one tree branch to another. He looked behind and saw the Forest Python enter the forest too.

Max's eyes widened when he saw the Forest Python vanish right after entering the tree, and he also didn't hear any kind of noise of it slithering in the trees. 'What a lethal skill.'

Max knew the danger of this kind of born skill. As an assassin, he had a hard time blending in with his environment. Now that he saw a creature that was able to do it easily, he couldn't help but feel shocked.

But he was able to notice something. The sunlight peeking through the leaves would darken as if something were blocking their path. He slowed down his run and waited for the Forest Python's attack.

And it came!

Max jumped to the left just before its maw was about to bite him.

Thrus!

The tree branch broke from its bite. Max, using this as a chance, swung his bone sword on the Forest Python's neck.

'So hard!' Max was astonished by the hardness of its scale. He was only able to break one of its scales, and his sword was also stuck.

This made Max crash along with the Forest Python into the ground.

Max hung onto his dear life. He decided to get on top of it and use all of his force to take the sword out.

Bang

The Forest Python crashed onto the ground and shook the surrounding trees. Fortunately, Max was on top of it, so he didn't get many injuries. He had also taken out the sword.

The Forest Python felt its prey was standing on top of its body, and it got enraged. It started trashing the wild, slamming its body on every tree in its sight.

BamBamBam

Max grabbed onto the opening of its scales and held onto himself. He felt he was riding a bull, but with much more intensity.

Max gritted his teeth and slowly got closer to its eyes.

"ARRGHH!" With a big shout, he inserted his sword into the Forest Python's right eye.

KRAA

The Forest Python screamed in pain, which shook the forest and the leaves. It swiped its tail at Max, who was totally unprepared for that.

In the nick of time, Max raised his sword and braced for the impact.

Bam

His eyes widened when the bones on his arms cracked and his skin ruptured after getting hit by that tail. He saw himself distancing away from the Forest Python.

Bam

Again, he got hit by something, and this time it was a tree. After his body slammed into the tree, he slumped down on the ground.

Max sat down, resting his back on the tree as his legs spread out. He raised his head up, only to see two giant fangs and throbbing meat in front of his sight.

Gulp

The Forest Python ate Max and, with satisfaction, swallowed him.

But, all of a sudden, its only remaining eye shot wide open, and it felt intense pain coming from inside its mouth.

It opened its mouth to scream, which revealed the bloodied figure of Max. He inserted his sword into the upper jaw of the Forest Python while his legs dangled in the air.

"AHH!" Max gave a loud scream with a crazed look and swung his sword down like he was doing an overhead swing.

Puchi

A deep cut appeared on its upper jaw as the blood spilled down onto its mouth and on Max.

Max was not done with that alone. He jumped up the moment his feet landed on its lower jaw. He cut straight through the already-open slit on its upper jaw.

Using all of his strength, Max sliced through its upper jaw and came out from the other side.

The Forest Python was able to see its prey again, who had caused more damage than he had ever felt.

"Die!" Max inserted his sword into its remaining eye.

KRAA

Max didn't let it go this time so easily. He forced his sword with all of his might and fully inserted it, cutting straight into its brain.

THUD!

The Forest Python's body fell to the ground, and it slowly started to die.

[ Congratulations, Host! You have killed a Grade-5 Enchanted Beast: Forest Python. ]

[ You have received the skill - Enhanced Senses. ]

[ Enhanced Senses - Forest Pythons have keen senses and are able to detect prey from great distances. Surviving an encounter with one could grant you enhanced senses, such as heightened sense of smell or improved night vision. ]

Max didn't pay any attention to the skill received; instead, his eyes were on the blood and the open meat of the Forest Python. His hands turned into sharp claws as his nails grew.

Then he jumped onto the Forest Python's body and started eating everything.

In this quiet and beautiful place, you could hear chewing and some growls that would make people think a demon or a beast was present.

And they were right, it was a demon but with a human inside it.
