The Simple Life of Killing Demons

Book 12: Chapter 101



Book 12: Chapter 101

"Moist Water! Darkheart!" Outside, Firesect and the others kept attacking the huge black energy shield in front of them. Valarie, Bellina, and Lin Xiang also came to help. However, no matter how they attacked, the energy shield showed no crinkles.

"No need to waste energy. With your, no, with our current abilities, breaking through this energy shield is completely impossible. It requires light to break it. Augustine is Beelzebub's subordinate, specializing in ‘Devouring’."

"Beelzebub? Devouring?" The spirit elders and Lin Xiang wore confused expressions regarding those abilities.

"The King of Gluttony, Beelzebub, one of the seven demon kings. There's nothing it can't devour, from living beings to non-living things, from magic to light, everything."

"Devour light!?" Lin Xiang could not believe it. Weren't the demon clan supposed to be afraid of light?

"Yes, it can devour light. The only downside is that after devouring it, it'll have a stomach ache. Since Augustine is Beelzebub's subordinate, ‘Devouring’ is his specialty. He can also devour light, but only weaker light. Your current magic attacks will be absorbed by him without a doubt."

"This is impossible! Who are you, and how do you know so much?" Illusion looked at Yalide warily. Yalide neither emitted the aura of spirits, nor did she seem human.

“Deli Temple, Deli Temple, do you all know why it got its name?” The edge of Yalide’s lips were curved upwards.

“Of course, it's in honor of our great Dragon God, Yalide. That's the name given by the Great Spirit Elder. Where did you hear about it?"

"Don't worry about where I heard it. Let me tell you my name. I am… Get away!" Yalide suddenly grabbed Lin Xiang, Valarie, and Bellina and retreated to a safe distance.

The spirit elders also reacted swiftly and followed suit.

The energy shield swiftly expanded, burst open with a whoosh, and filled the air with purple poison gas.

Augustine stood within the poison gas, and not far from him, Moist Water knelt on the ground, and Darkheart was nowhere to be found.

"Hurry… everyone, run quickly! I'll buy you time." Moist Water shouted towards the direction of Firesect's group, her voice weak and feeble. Then, with trembling hands pressing against her knees as she stood up, she looked at Augustine. "The ancient demon of the clan… incredible. But, like Darkheart, I will not become your energy." As she spoke, a burst of blue light emanated from Moist Water's body.

"No! Senior Moist Water!" The eyes of Firesect and the others widened as they watched in shock.

Boom!

Like a flash flood, Moist Water transformed into a beam of water that shot into the sky and turned into a water dragon, roaring and charging towards Augustine, whose lips were turning purple.

Augustine looked like he had been poisoned. He bent over and gasped for air, unable to move as he just stood there to face the water dragon.

The ground trembled. Water splashed everywhere, and fell on Firesect and the others' faces. It was cold. The role-models, who the water spirits and poison spirits worshiped, were sacrificed, just like that…

Senior Moist Water and Senior Darkheart…" Wind Blade clenched his fists, staring fixedly at the place where the water dragon disappeared.

After the collision of the water dragon, a large pit appeared on the ground. Augustine lay in the middle of it, his leather armor damaged. He gasped for breath, then suddenly burst into laughter. "You've got guts. One would be enough, but both of you are like this."

Augustine floated up, looking at Lin Xiang and the others.

"I originally thought it wouldn't take much of my energy to deal with you, but I didn't expect your resistance to be so intense." Augustine's gaze drifted afar, where the soldiers of the royal palace were fighting fiercely with the demon soldiers and demonized spirits. "I’ll absorb them first and deal with you all later. It wouldn't be good if I explode again."

"Not on my watch!" Firesect and the others, consumed with grief over Moist Water and Darkheart's passing, now wished to kill Augustine immediately. They all released powerful magic to block Augustine.

However, Augustine's body erupted with a burst of dark matter, surging towards them like a tsunami.

————

"Kill!" The demonized spirits, who consumed the darkening pills, were different from those who were demonized through sacrifice. Those that were demonized through sacrifice had obtained true demonic power, rapidly increasing their combat strength. Facing a larger number of royal palace spirits, one of the demonized spirits could take on several of them.

After that, with the help of demon soldiers, the spirits from the royal palace fell into a hard battle.

"You call yourself the Spirit King? We used to bow down to you, but now, haha! There’s nothing special about the Spirit King after all!" Alvin laughed heartily. Since he was not involved in battle, he still retained a shred of consciousness.

How wonderful it would be to trample the king under his foot.

Thus, Alvin drew his weapon and headed towards Spirit King.

Of course, the royal guards would not allow him to succeed. They fiercely killed the demon soldiers and stood in front of the Spirit King, forming a formation to stop him. Although Alvin was demonized, he could not fight so many royal guards. He took out a box, grabbed a pill, and swallowed it.

His eyes burst with red light. Like a wild beast out of control, he charged towards the troop of royal guards. The royal guards attacked his body, yet they were all ineffective.

"This is it! This is it! The energy inside me is constantly surging." Alvin killed or wounded all the guards blocking his path and rushed towards the Spirit King.

However, after walking a certain distance, Alvin suddenly stopped.

His body began to swell.

"No, no, this can't be happening! I am the city lord, my body can handle this!" He began to show expressions of pain as he screamed loudly. Then, with a bang, he exploded, leaving behind a faint mist of black blood in the air.

On the ground lay a box.

At that moment, Augustine floated over. Indiscriminate between friend and foe, as long as it was a living being, he extended his tentacles to absorb them. The first to be absorbed were the demonized spirits.

"Monster! Monster!" The soldiers in the front row were terrified when they saw that and wanted to retreat, but they could not escape from Augustine's grasp, so they were all absorbed.

Fear enveloped them! Seeing their comrades turned into corpses, and their energy sucked dry, including the royal guards, they were all terrified.

"Retreat, everyone." The Spirit King immediately ordered, and the soldiers stopped fighting, throwing off their armor and running in the opposite direction.

They could die on the battlefield, but no one could accept that kind of death.

The Spirit King remained in place, not leaving. He then picked up a spear…
