How to become a Demon Lord: The Former Hero's Journey as a Demon Lord!

Chapter 272: How To Run

"Something like this won't kill you. I already told you this before, sister. I serve the demon lord, and you only have two options. You either bend the knee to him, or you suffer the consequences! I don't care about what you think we are! You are my enemy if you are against the demon lord!"

Dragonnel shouted this in anger and Givalich felt anger rise inside of her as well! This fool! He was ready to lay down his life for the exact same person that led to the destruction of their home! The demon lord is the one that made Volcanica into what it is today and Dragonnel just wanted to serve that same person! Is he mad!?

Givalich immediately concluded that there must be some sort of mind control magic that was being used on Dragonnel! This is too much and she was not going to believe that Dragonnel would betray his people like this!

"Fine then! Since you want to serve the demon lord so badly! I'll kill him and make you come back to your senses!"

Givalich roared dragon fire at Dragonnel and he flapped his wings and took off into the sky as he roared fire back at her! The two skills clashed in the air and created a massive explosion that could be seen for miles!

Ka-Boommmmm!!

Givalich roared in anger as she blasted into the sky and slammed into Dragonnel, taking them both away from the forest and toward a town close by!

......

Ria was running for her life! She was panting heavily and a large amount of sweat was pouring down her face as she ran through the forest and tried her best to get away from the monster that was chasing her!

Boom!!

A loud sound of something breaking echoed from behind her and Ria didn't even need it turn around to know that it was a tree falling down!

Pyra had been chasing Ria through the forest since the dragons started fighting! At first, Ria thought that she could hold Pyra off! Pyra was an SSS class and Ria was an SS class! As long as Ria used her magic Resonance, she was sure that she would stand a chance against her!

But she was wrong! She was so fucking wrong that it was laughable!

This woman was a monster! Even without her resonance, she could do things that only those in? EPIC class should be able to do! Ria's resonance was Hear no Evil. See no evil. It was a special power that allowed her to pinpoint the exact position of everyone and everything around her using her senses. When she is using her resonance, it feels like the world is moving in slow motion and she has limited control over the flow of time. But even when she activated her resonance, it still didn't feel like anything changed! Pyra was just too fast and strong and the difference in their power was too much!

There were other things that her resonance could do, but Ria knew that it would take all of her mana if she did that! She was currently transferring mana to Givalich so that she could do the Jump, and if she activated any of her other abilities then she wouldn't have enough mana to give Givalich! So the best thing she could do was to run!

Slam!

"Fuck!!" n--OIn

Ria cursed and jumped to the side as a massive hit almost flattened her to the ground! Pyra was right behind her and Ria immediately stood up and faced Ria! She was breathing heavily and her nun gown was completely soaked! She knew that she couldn't run any more than this! What the hell was Givalich doing?

[Ria! What's going on? I can feel the mana from the fight! Who is Givalich fighting against!?]

Elias' voice came through a magic circle beside Ria's ear and she immediately felt her eye twitching in anger as he distracted her! She jumped it the side as Pyra slammed her mace into the point where she was just standing and she activated a high-level earth spell that rose a dome from the ground in front of her to protect herself from another hit that would have taken her head off!

[Water Lance - SS] has been activated!!

Thirty lances made from water appeared around her and turned to ice before shooting toward Pyra! Pyra rolled her mace in the air and all the lances only slammed against her mace! Leaving her perfectly fine! What the Fick was that!? That mace had to weigh at least a ton and she was waving it around like a toy!!

[Ria -!]

"Get the fuck out of my head, Elias! I'm busy! If you want to know then go talk to Givalich!"

Ria turned off the communication circle once once she shouted this and she immediately turned around and ran again! She activated a fire skill that created a wall of fire behind her to give her some time to escape and she didn't even bother turning around to see if Pyra was right behind her or not! She just opened another magic circle and called Givalich!

"I've sent all the magic power I could. You need to do it now!"

[I need time]

Givalich responded in a strained voice that told Ria that she was pushing herself in the fight against Dragonnel she could hear the sounds of people running and houses breaking echoing from the other side of the call and Ria figured they were in the town close by!

[I'll create an opening in thirty seconds! Come to me once the time reaches!]

Once Givalich said this, the communication circle closed again and Ria was left on her own to run! On the other side of the call, Givalich was fighting for her life! Givalich has been sealed in that volcano for a long time and she hasn't been in a really taxing fight since the demon lord fought against her and this is the second time that she really felt like she could die if she let her guard down even a little!

"Run! They're coming this way! Run!!"

"They're breaking the houses! People are in there!"

"Forget about the! Just run!"

"Mummy! Mummy!"

The sounds of humans screaming and running reached Givalich, but that was only background noise that she just ignored! She and Dragonnel were fighting inside a large town! This was the town that Givalich wanted to come and rest at before continuing her journey to the Duruvian mountains!

Dragonnel used his tail to slam into Givalich and Givalich slammed into three buildings before stopping and roaring a dragon's breath at Dragonnel! Dragonnel opened three magic circles in front of him and icy fog appeared out from it to negate the fire before he charged for Givalich and slammed into her, carrying the both of them up to another building!

This one was filled with women and Dragonnel figured that it was a brothel! The women were screaming and running! Many of them were scantily dressed, but Dragonnel just ignored everything as he focused on Givalich!

"You don't have to keep running! The demon lord would gladly welcome you if you joined him! You only need to bend the knee!"

Givalich ran forward and the both of them charged again!

"And become a slave like you!? I'll never forget what the demon lord did to our people! Even if you forget, I'll never forget!"

"This is not the same demon lord!"

Dragonnel shouted this in anger and he changed another fire breath and used it to slam Givalich away from him! This demon lord was different from the one that killed all of their people! And Givalich had no right to judge either of the demon lords
