123. Demon vs Eight Year Old
「Bastard–」
The demon looked at me shocked.
He was probably trying to ask「Kisama, who are you?」
But I won’t let him finish those words.

With the momentum of the free fall, I aimed a magic blade right towards the demon.
I really want to cut him with my own sword, but it can’t be helped since it broke in the fight with Dolflare.
「NUOOOOHHH」
The demon re-worked the broken barriers and desperately tried to defend my magic blade.
But my magic blade can’t be stopped by that level of defence.
–BREAK! BREAK! BREAK!
Three magic barriers broke in a row, and my magic blade was almost upon the demon.
The demon quickly twisted his body and tried to avoid a fatal wound.
「I won’t let you!」
I quickly changed the trajectory of the magic blade to catch a vital point.
However, the demon was faster than I had expected.
I was going to cut him right in half from the head, but my blade landed on his shoulder.
Still, I cut the demon in two from the right shoulder to the crotch.
The left half of his body and head still stood, as his right half collapsed to the ground.
However, this was not a fatal wound for a demon.
「Tch. I missed the killing blow.」
「Kisama… Who are you?」
I don’t answer the demon’s question.
「As usual, demons are as persistent as a cockroach.」
「Don’t underestimate me! Damn brat!」
A kind of black mist gushed out from the two cut surfaces of the demon’s body.
No, the cut surface itself has turned into mist.
The two lumps of mists moved like clouds, and mixed together into one.

It’s obvious that he’s trying to regenerate.
「Like hell I’m gonna let you!」
With the magic blade, I tried to cut at the lump of mist.
Magic blade is not a physical attack, but a magic attack, so it can cut mist.
However, a right hand suddenly appeared out of the mist, and gripped my magic blade.
「…To think you’ll catch my blade first.」
The demon seems to have regenerated only his right hand first, clad it with magic, and forcibly grabbed my magic blade.
His concentration of magic is extraordinary.
The level of his magic seems to be abnormal even among demons with high magic power; a special kind of demon.
「I’m not gonna just let you leave alive.」
When I said that,
「…….That’s my line.」
His head and left hand formed from the mist.
Currently, only his right hand, left hand, and head, which appeared from the mist, floated in mid-air. It was an eerie sight to say the least.
「Is that so… then don’t try to run away.」
I erased the magic blade that was grabbed, and cut him again with another magic blade at point blank range.
I can see both his hands. So I cut in a way where the demon won’t be able to catch it.
The demon began to deploy multiple magic barriers to prevent my magic blade.
Trying to defend simply confirms that my magic blade is effective against the mist.
–BREAK, CRACK, BREAK, CRACK
The demon’s magic barriers prevented some of my magic blade slashes.
But most of my slashes cut the mist.
「NUUUUUOOOH…」
Every time my magic blade cuts the mist, the demon’s head groaned in pain.
It seems to be working after all.
As I tried to unleash more slashes, the demon’s right hand moved in a strange manner.

It disappeared for an instant, and appeared at a spot not possible for a living creature.
The right hand grew from the elbow of his left hand, and grabbed my right arm as I tried to slash.
「…I got you.」
The demon’s face distorted happily.
He seems to have made a gap in his magic barrier without hesitation of being cut.
And led me to a slash.
In other words, I seem to have fallen into his trap.
「Quite smart for a cockroach, aren’t you?」
「It’s just you who are stupid. Inferior creature.」
Then, the mist began to return to the shape of a demon.
The right hand which gripped my right arm also returned to its original position from the left elbow.
「I won’t let you!」
To interfere with the regeneration, I attacked the demon.
Because my right arm was still gripped, I shot magic bullets into the demon from my left hand.
「Did you think that level of attack will work on me?」
While taking direct hits from the magic bullets, he still had an eerie smile on his face.
However, there was still a reaction. Not a fatal wound, but there was damage.
In that case, just keep attacking.
When I was shooting magic bullets incessantly, magic began to gather in the demon’s right hand.
He was trying to burn off my right arm with strong magic.
「Tch!」
I concentrate the attack on the demon’s right hand.
The attack on the right hand is something which needs to gather magic first.
In other words, the demon can’t activate it immediately. It’s magic which needs preparation.
It’s definitely going to be a very strong attack. It will be bad if I let him activate it.
I fired relentlessly at the demon’s right hand.
However, even with my relentless attack, the demon does not let go of my right hand.
「Like I said, your attacks won’t work!」
At the same time as he cried out, flames burst out of the demon’s mouth.
He was trying to burn my face from point blank range.
I put up a barrier to prevent the flames.
At the same time, the demon’s right hand shone brightly. The flames that came out of his mouth was a decoy.
By forcing me to defend the flames, he was planning to take my right hand, his real target.
「Grovel before me! Worm!」
At the same time as the demon cried out happily, his right hand exploded.

(Is he?) done... (is it?) #I'm mostly writing this on my spare time using my phone~ expect less words in this story but more frequent release (like at most a chap a day or a chap a week... :3) #P.S. I'll end my story of course... like the others, althought I'm a moody person I'll end my story once I start it, so expect more in my series... and don't give me a crappy rating just because the note above...

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
