Chapter 802 Splitting Off

Tempo jumped into the cavern and landed beside Arad now that the barrier had fallen. He glared at the abomination with a passive face, "So this is the monster we've been hearing about?"

"You aren't a fire titan, are you? You're a mixed blood of earth and fire." The abomination smiled.

As Tempo inspected the abomination with his eyes, he could feel a sharp shift in magic, the being standing before them wasn't something that should exist. Tempo could feel the air cracking around them by just looking at the monster as if the world didn't want that thing to be standing there.

"The name Tempo, a volcanic Titan, what are you?"

"I don't have a name. Our lord Nyar never had time to name me before I got sealed here. But I'm an abomination, a being of the outer world."

"That means you shouldn't be standing here." Tempo pulled his sword, "Is there a way to send you back to the outer world? I'd rather have a peaceful end to this."

"You're a na?ve one, aren't you?" The abomination took one step forward and suddenly disappeared, landing a fist at Tempo's guts. But Tempo didn't budge; he instead looked forward with a surprised gasp.

"As I expected." The abomination smiled, "You're the problem here." His eyes shifted toward Arad who had caught the punch before it hit Tempo's stomach.

"I'm not letting you kill anyone, monster. I've already faced abominations before, and I know for a fact you must be killed on sight."

"Like I would…" The abomination head's upper half disappeared, and Betty appeared standing behind him with a blade of light in her hand, "I've sensed a massive wave of magic, to think a bug like you appeared."

"The speed of light?" The abomination spoke despite the injury, "And a damned Halfling, what a pain." He sighed, remembering the magic goddess Yog; she was a half-Halfling half-elf which terrorized the abominations, using them as her lab rats.

The abomination's head regenerated in the blink of an eye. "It seems. I'm not getting out of here without a fight. I would rather recover after finally getting free,"

CLAP! CLAP! He clapped his hands, "Let's the blood bath start."

Back in the university, Lucia was sitting inside Betty's office with several other teachers inspecting the area for magic as per Betty's orders. Once she sensed the abomination, she put the whole university on high alert and flew to eliminate the threat.

"An unidentified magic source of over S-class monsters has appeared within the university's perimeter! Send all the teachers to eliminate it before the students are hurt."

Just before the teachers could fly out, Lucia cried again with a terrified face. "Wait! Another signal showed up…" She was sweating, "It….that can't be…"

"What is it?" The other teachers looked at the magic crystal she was using for inspection and froze in place… "A demon lord? Here?"

A clone of the abomination walked through the school's hallways, "So this is how humanoids are living those days… Peace has weakened them, what a ripe chance to take over."

CLICK! The women's bathroom door that was to the side of the hallway slowly opened up, and he stopped walking, staring forward with wide-open eyes as a long blade slowly emerged.

Merida took the first step out her left eye glared at him with a green deathly stare, burning with demonic magic.

"Wait…what?" He gasped, "A demon lord, in the mortal world?"

Merida disappeared from his vision, grabbed him by the face, and jumped out of the window, flying all the way to the forest in the blink of an eye.

The abomination gasped, he couldn't believe that she overpowered him just like that. He is a clone and nowhere near as powerful as the main body, but he shouldn't be pushed around by anything in the mortal world.

Merida threw him into the forest with a single push, and the forest floor shifted from trees to a large red and brown fungus with a massive gaping mouth of jagged teeth and blood, opening wide with a throat leading straight to darkness.

The abomination clone found himself standing in a barren grey and brown wasteland beneath a black sky, countless twisted and deformed demonic monstrosities surrounded him as if he were in a pit ready to fight.

"This is the abyss?" He looked to the side and saw a massive throne with a mural of Arad and Merida taking down the previous demon queen of fungus. "What is happening here?"

Beneath the mural, a rotten brass throne flashed with demonic magic, a twisted fungus sat on it with a glowing green aura. "I'm the current demon queen of fungus. Welcome to my domain, little bug from the outside world."

TAP! TAP! He could hear Merida's steps as she walked into the abyss after him.

"If you're a danger to my blood sister, I shall grant her every drop of power I have, for this life of mine has been nurtured by her." The demon queen disintegrated into spores alongside the thousands of fungus demons in the area, all of them flew toward Merida, getting absorbed into her body in a crimson storm.

"Hold up! This can't be happening!" The abomination clone cried as the wasteland around him turned into a massive arena surrounded by rot and fungus-infested large trees. Merida landed beside him, her black hair glowing with a green and red aura as her blade grew longer.

"I'm Merida, wife of Arad Orion. Only death awaits those who dare harm us."

"He's the one who attacked me first!"

"Then bow your head and await death." Her two eyes burned with a bloodied green glow of demonic magic. She took a stance, ready to test a new dance.

The abomination lunged forward, swinging his fist at her, but his arm got sliced before he could even realize it. ^That's blade is attached to her right arm, and she's using the combined power of all the demons that were here including that demon queen.^

He looked back, barely managing to shield his neck before Merida's second swing.

^This feeling, that she's an absolute demon, a creature born of the abyss's will of destruction and death. Just like him, the god slayer Kayden, to think a second monster like him was born in the past thousand years.^

He lunged away, his eyes finally getting used to Merida's blinding speed. ^But, she is nowhere as mature or strong as him. If he was the one I was facing, I would've already died without him needing to drag me here. She is a threat, I must eliminate her and prevent her from growing any stronger.^

*****

Maria Ringbell, the witch pretending to be a teacher at the university ran across the hallways, sending a message to Anansi, the mother spider. ^Don't fight any of the intruders, you'll die. Stay still like the other students until the fight ends.^

^Got it, but don't you dare die and ruin the plan.^

Maria stopped, ^I have to cut out. I found one.^ She was sweating as she stared, another clone of the abomination stood before her.

"A dark elf woman? No, you don't feel like one, I don't sense that dancer's blood in you." He lifted a finger; his nail grew into a spike and flew forward, piercing her shoulder.

She gasped. ^This bastard, what did he do? That was too fast to see, did he cast a spell, no, that wasn't it, I couldn't see mana moving.^

The abomination laughed, "Now this is fun! To think someone like you is here, are you trying to plan something bad? I'm certain you could use an evil being to sponsor your endeavor." He could tell she was a witch disguising herself, as a being of his level of existence, he couldn't tell the difference between people's faces but could identify them by magic with a glance.

But, the abomination wasn't the only monster around, and Maria wasn't the only being hiding her identity and power. A hand landed on Maria's shoulder, "Your polymorph is about to fade, fix it before you get exposed." Gojo walked past her, his eyes glowing blue as a smile filled his face.

"I don't care who you are, but it won't be fun if you get exposed before it's time, won't it."

"What are you? Your magic is weird." The abomination mumbled, tilting his head as he looked at Gojo, unable to determine what he was.

Maria looked at Gojo's back, the mana flinching in front of her eyes. ^That's Aron's older brother, and Aron is a void dragon. Don't tell me…he's an even older void dragon?^ Now that thought crossed her mind, she noticed that he was indeed covering his true nature alongside enough magic to make her puke at the spot.

The abomination giggled, "Humans are indeed too weak. She can't even stand long in my aura before puking and dying…

how pathetic."

Maria looked at the abomination with a pained face, ^You're wrong, I can handle your magic all day long, it's this bastard's magic that's too disgustingly twisted.^

"You asked who I am." Gojo smiled, "I'm nothing, I'm your death.^
