Chapter 739: [Demon Palace Pandemonium]

Baaang!!

As a dozen demons and fallen angels were in a panic within the Imperial Castle, suddenly the door was blasted open.

Their hearts jerked as they turned around directly.

They saw a figure in a kicking position, the massive steel door in pieces.

Black clothes, two pairs of horns on his head seemly forming like a crown, and black feathered wings on his back, and strange iron shackles on his wrists and ankles. As a Demon he looks extremely strange but still bewitching.

“Sorry about the door,”

The black-clothed young man said with a wry smile. Then, he raised both hands, as if showing the people he was dragging by the head, “My hands are occupied,”

The surrounding turned silent.

“Demon Prince Dante!”

An alarmed voice called out.

Allen smilingly turned towards the voice. There, several figures could be seen. Some look like a monstrous demonic creature, some were handsome and beautiful fallen angels, and there were also beasts and ogre-like creatures.

The big shots of the demon world gathered together welcoming him. What a pleasant sight~

“Yowh! I heard about a party, hope I haven’t come late~”

“You are not late… and we have been waiting for you!”

A bulky demon with a body full of scales.

Looking at the aura, Allen immediately realized the other party, a demonic dragon!

The demonic dragon took a menacing step forward. It was a small motion, but one that spoke volumes. A step that spoke murder. Though no face was visible, the man’s homicidal intentions were palpable as he faced Allen’s direction. Allen, on the other hand, was still showing his emotionless expression as if nothing that happens could faze the calmness of his mind.

“Oh, so touching…”

After saying that, metallic noises rang out from everywhere.

Every demon and fallen angel pulled out their weapons and their expression turned fierce and threatening.

“What a warm welcome~” Allen grinned. His eyes flashed mirth and amused expression; “Now this is I call a party!”

Before he could finish speaking, suddenly three figures appeared before him in a blink of an eye. It was so sudden that they as if they appeared in an instant. However, Allen’s expression didn’t change. He stared at them with a faint smile. Then, the demonic dragon that had appeared before him along with the other two demons made his attack.

No magic spell or supernatural power or any of the sort.

In fact, to high-level people, fancy attacks are just party tricks!

The Demonic Dragon Man roared.

His roar seemed to shook the entire world, creating earthquakes as the entire Palace trembled.

Allen narrowed his eyes.

It was a fast and clean kick aiming for his solar plexus—

It was a physical battle yet Allen knows that behind every attack of them can destroy mountains and split seas with ease!

Still, trying to compare physical strength... what a load of bullshit.

Allen sneered and easily evaded this attack with a sidestep. Once Allen successfully sidestepped, as if predicting his response, another one of the three already released a punch aiming for his head. Allen quickly ducked but this time the last of the three did a low sweeping kick, because of this, he could only dodge awkwardly by jumping.

The coordination of the three was superb, Allen wanted to see their limits if this was a normal match...

But unfortunately, it wasn't—

This is a life and death battle!

What he needs to do was quickly and efficiently removes the threat.

And that is… by killing them!

Behind this wall of people is the real target!

Allen dashed forward, his body encased with lightning sparks and Boooom!! a sonic boom appeared behind him. The three demons were surprised by the sudden charge quickly went into a defensive stance. The one in front did a forward punch, the air squeaking like a submarine under the deepest depth of the ocean. Allen evaded by spinning his body and using the momentum from the evasive spin and did a spinning kick hitting the man squarely at his solar plexus.

The man who was kicked flew away like a cannonball, crashing onto a massive pillar. Another one of the three attackers kicked Allen while he was trying to regain his balance from doing the spinning kicking. Seeing the incoming kick aiming precisely at his chin, he who was in a bad position followed the flow of the kick using his hands and did a handstand using the opponent's leg as a platform.

This one move showed Allen’s amazing fighting ability.

There was no coordination, but his ability to adapt to any circumstances and even the flexibility of his body that can carry whatever position and movement he wanted, was phenomenal.

"You're too slow,"

While in the handstand position Allen defying the laws of physics did a somersault kick aiming at the opponent's head. The opponent seeing the impending kick about to reach his head blocked with both arms—his body turning into metallic steel as if he had become an iron man. But even with blocking successfully that the kick was too strong, he was sent crashing on the ground, creating a large crater and shaking the entire castle.

The demonic dragon man who was stronger than the previous two howled angrily and opened a breath. It was close to Allen’s position and so even if Allen turned into lightning and dodge, it would be too late. The breath looked like a column of black fire, giving a horrifying feeling of able to burn everything in this world into ashes. However, Allen was not the least bit worried. He snorted and raised his hand.

The breath came in contact with his open palm, and when others thought it would be burned, Allen just grinned amusedly and grasped, the terrifying breath that could rival the sun in the heat was destroyed in an instant, shattering like glasswork upon the impact of his power and showered into the air before disappearing--though he seemed to have just crashed a stone, his expression didn’t even falter.

“How……How is that possible!”

The demonic dragon-man gave a loud shout but in fact, that was the kind of action to be expected.

“Well, everything is possible,”

Allen smiled and his figure flashed before reappearing just in front of the demonic dragon-man and sent a powerful kick.

"You're mind is just too narrow to even think about the possibility,"

The demonic dragon-man instinctively hardened his body and crossed both of his arms before his chest. However, the impact of the opponent's kick was so strong he was still sent flying away. The sound of bones crashed echoed in the area.

The atmosphere turned solemn and the surrounding fell silent. They can only watch as Allen dusted his clothes casually while descending on the ground. His power completely shocked them.

Although the fighting scene indeed took some time to describe, it actually happened in almost an Instant. It basically ended three to four minutes after the three demons appeared in front of the Demon Prince Dante. One must know who these three were—these three are members of the Royal Guards of the Imperial Palace and within the top ten of the strongest of the Demon World. And yet, they were easily defeated in an instant!

So this is the feared power of the Demon Prince Dante…?

Most of them can be said to be a new generation of the Demon World and so they never know or completely understand how terrifying the power of the Demon Prince possess, nor was the Demon Prince Dante's terrifying capabilities. All they know was taken directly from myths and legends passed down from the ancients.

Hence, those who have the courage to attack and kill Allen can only be called suicidal due to ignorance.

Only idiots would do something like them.

Just like the saying goes, ‘The Newborn Calf does not fear the Tiger’, they didn’t think anything and just rushed in without fear. If it was the old people who know the Demon Prince, even if they know that the Demon Prince was weakened, they would still think twice before confronting the Demon Prince directly.

‘A starved Camel is still bigger than a Horse,’ if you deemed the Demon Prince as an ant just because he is weakened, then, you would never know how you will die.

Rooooooaaaaarrrr-!!!

An angry roar echoed within the Imperial Palace.

The piled debris exploded, and a miserable demi-dragon appeared within the clouds of dust, his both arms bleeding and seemed bent in a strange angle. Also even though the whole fight only lasted a few minutes the demonic dragon was now breathing heavily as if he had just run a marathon.

The pressure Allen was emitting in close range was immense which made it very difficult for any demon even with his level that was fighting him up close.

“DANTEEE!!!”

“This toad’s halitosis is making my eyes water.”

Allen’s lackadaisical voice matched his easy stance, no sense of wariness or anxiety in his every movement. On his face, a smile was hanging; “It seems like Mammon didn’t properly educate all of you. Or probably, you are meant to be clowns in the party…? I can see that,”

“WHY YOU!!!”

The demi-dragon suddenly transformed into over ten-meter tall black dragon with menacing sharp horns all over his body.

Allen chuckled, though it was an expression that never reached his eyes.

“When a tiger sleeps too long, others forget he has claws. Did you think you all are enough to entertain…me?”

His voice turned cold, colder than a millennium ice block.

His eyes flashed a condescending look.

“At best, you need to call a few more clowns to make me enjoy it!”

In the space of that single step, the lackadaisical and indifferent Allen underwent a dramatic change.

His slothful aura turned demonically fierce and everything close to him was blown away, leaving a ten-meter clear filled around him. Those who were surrounding him, including those who were slowly sneaking closer to make a sneak attack, were blown away, either crashed on pillars of the castle or flew towards the ceiling, creating holes in it. There were also those who were quite in the rear, fainting, and losing consciousness—death or alive is unknown.

But the demons didn’t look on in stillness.

In those few moments they, too, were in motion.

A dazzling flash of golden-red like the rising sun burst into bloom before Allen’s face.

The explosion released an incomparable blast of light and heat.

The hell-fire reflected off of Allen’s aura. Seeing this, Allen couldn’t help but sneer in contempt. His right hand short forth and a terrible blast of blue light erupted towards his adversaries. It charged forth like a spear, piercing to the direction of the high ranking demons.

Terrible bursts of energy issued from the point of contact. The electric energies cast forth by Allen seemed to devour everything around it. With the air still crackling from the power of the impact, he took another step forward. Surrounded by the remnants of their opening salvo, his approach seemed even more menacing.

The Demons deftly avoided the blast, floating effortlessly in the air as though they were taking a leisurely stroll; however if one looks closely their expressions were filled with clear anxiety and panic. Suddenly, a holy light expanded from one of the fallen angel’s body--pure and brilliant and raced towards Allen.

The chorus of angels rang from its depths.

Although Allen was not currently a pure demon, if this hit him, with his several unholy physiques, surviving from it unscathed is definitely impossible.

Still--

“How can you see it, that you're still too weak!”

Allen’s voice thundered forth.

Boooom!

Earsplitting peels of thunder rang through the heavens.

Threading bolts of blue lightning became encased in golden light and furiously detonated from between him and the Demons. One of the Fallen Angels who had made a shot staggered out. His expression turned pale and shock, his jaw hanging open, enough for an entire egg to be stuffed inside.

As Allen was about to follow an attack, suddenly from the corner of his eyes, a bright light was coming towards him. His eyes narrowed and suddenly, from within him, a circular shield with a woman’s face engraved on the shield’s surface. However, it was not a normal girl’s face but a girl with a head full of snakes.

Medusa!

That’s right—this shield, with a meter circumference, was none other than, Aegis- Athena’s beloved shield, or better known as a fragment of it.

When the shield appeared beside him, the bright column of light that almost hit him was easily blocked by it. In addition, when it appeared, the stone sculpted face of Medusa suddenly moved, opening its eyes, and those who saw it, be they demon, fallen angel, or monsters, turned to stones. However, as expected of it being just a fragment, it was not as strong as the original and some demons were able to remain safe, albeit groggy and disoriented, seemingly suffering a mental attack.

Most of these demons were high-level demons after all. A mere fragment of a Divine Tool cannot completely affect them, giving a limit in the [Petrifying Gaze] ability's success.

The bright column of light turned into stones, then crumbling into powder. When it did, Allen can see a figure from the other end of the attack—the demonic dragon. It was staring at Allen in shock. It seems like it didn’t expect Allen to have a God Artifact such as the Aegis.

Allen sneered coldly.

“Disasters from the heavens can be forgiven and avoided, but the sins of man must have consequences. I didn’t care about you little lizard but it seems like, you are really wishing to die. Now then, I should give you what you want, as a present from me~"

Although his tone seemed cheerful, as ever, his face only betrayed that signature indifference. His right hand lifted, slowly and purposefully, to snap his fingers. At once an azure photosphere appeared floating in the air. But it did not rush towards the group with the demonic dragon, instead, it floated about a meter before Allen before bursting into oblivion.

At the sight of the explosion, a pale snow-white flame hung in the air. Stranger than that, however, is the fact that the flame raced towards the demonic dragon as though it had a life of its own. It was as if an invisible cloud of gasoline had ignited in the air, and the flame was racing back to its source in the demonic dragon man.

The murderous aura suffocating the area dispersed almost immediately like the fire had burned it away.

The demonic dragon howled and retreated a step, his right hand raised and flailing to shield himself.

However, what caused the demonic dragon to feel horrified was that, instead of igniting in flames, the demonic dragon’s arms were slowly turning into a block of ice. Not just that, from within the block of ice, the demonic dragon can feel the stinging fiery pain, like its nerves, veins, and flesh were burned and its bones freezing cold.

It was a strange sense of pain.
