‘Shit! What is he doing now?’ Blake screamed in his head.

Clearly, he found Ashton’s actions very questionable and somehow disagreeable. He had no idea what he was trying to achieve by doing this. If anything, isn’t this just a massive risk? Hell, he’s putting everybody in grave danger by playing around.

Unfortunately, he can’t do anything about this. He can’t even move a single muscle. Neither could Alice or Mary for that matter. Due to that, they have no choice other than to watch how everything unfolds.

Ashton could tell that they were worried. He didn’t need to look at them to know that. More than that, he could also tell that he’s being resented since he’s putting them at risk.

However, he decisively ignored this for now. There’s no use explaining anyway so he decided to just show them instead.

He sat on the air and stared at the Revenants with a provocative gaze. He lifted his hand, showing it to everyone. Then, he slowly waved toward the left.

This action caused the weight pressing down on the Revenants to disappear. The instant they felt that all of them stood up and glared hatefully at Ashton who said:

“Haha! Come, let’s play!”

Boom!

The six-eyed demon disappeared instantly from his spot and appeared right behind him. It moved so fast and so suddenly that nobody was able to follow its movements.

The Six-eyed Demon King punched using all of its strength and with a feral glint in its eyes. Feeling his fist hit something solid, a wave of satisfaction swerved up to his chest, draining a little bit of the resentment that accumulated when he saw his Brother’s death.

However, when the cloud of smoke disappeared. A shocking scene was laid in front of them.

Ashton’s back was still facing the demon king, and the demon’s fist was still wedged within Ashton’s body, touching the ground in the process. But what really confused them was the lack of blood.

And under their dumbstruck gazes, Ashton turned around nonchalantly, something that shouldn’t be possible with the arm of the demon wedged through him and he did it with barely an effort.

That’s when the Demon King realized that the solid hit it felt earlier didn’t come from his fist making contact with Ashton’s body, it came from the ground below.

Its arms passed through Ashton’s body as if he was a ghost.

“My, quite eager are you? I appreciate the enthusiasm at least.” Ashton chuckled as he unceremoniously slid out of the demon’s arm.

“An illusion?” All of its eyes narrowed as it looked around.

Ashton then raised a brow, he jumped and smacked the head of the demon, earning a loud thump and causing the demon’s face to be deeply embedded in the ground from a casual slap.

“Does that feel like an illusion to you?”

The six-eyed Demon King snarled while getting up, throwing yet another punch that caused the air to scream. Ashton giggled and casually stepped out of the way, evading the attack in a fluid motion as if he was expecting it already.

He then skipped merrily toward the Revenants, earning their hatred even more. That’s when they decided to attack together and that’s also when the chaos ensued.

The trio watched in silent amazement as Ashton legitimately turned all of them into a joke. He dodged attack after attack, something delivering a comical counter-attack now and then to piss them off even further.

He will make them work so hard to try and catch him, only to ruthlessly dash their hopes away by remaining completely fine even when the attacks hit him.

He was like a literal ghost, everything just passes through him, failing to hurt him at all. It didn’t matter how hard or how fast they tried to hit him, nothing worked at all, causing them to feel dismayed.

They pursued him, staying close and hot on his trails but Ashton has never been touched even once. He always just shrugs it off like it was nothing.

Somehow, they’re starting to pity the poor things. Ashton was just straight-up clowning them. Even when they planned out their attacks and all, Ashton remained fine and they could tell that it is making them more and more irate with each passing moment.

At some point, Ashton paused in his tracks. As he looked back, he saw his playmates huffing and miserably puffing behind him. He pouted and said:

“Damn, tired already? What are you? Old people? Come on, where’s all the bravado earlier? Don’t you want a piece of me? I’m right here you know?”

None of the Revenants replied, instead they just glared at him before looking at each other.

They seemed to have a silent conversation as, after a few seconds, they nodded to each other and all of a sudden, they released extremely fearsome energy fluctuations.

“Ho…” Ashton looked at this with stars in his eyes.

And under their gazes, the Revenants finally showed their true forms.

The white-eyed woman from earlier turned into a Seraphim with 10 Wings. The six-eyed Demon King turned out to be a Beast Demon – a crow to be more precise.

There were also some Cherubim, Thrones, more Beast Demons, Insect Demons, etc. All in all, they were ten of them originally…it’s 9 now after Ashton killed the dumb one earlier.

“Ooh, finally treating me seriously huh? Scary, scary…” Ashton mused out loud.

“Human!! You’re done for!” The six-eyed Crow Demon King cried out as it took to the skies and started raining down huge droplets of a jet-black liquid filled with concentrated corruption.

Others also started making their respective moves, bombarding Ashton with all they’ve got.

But, just as Blake, Mary, and Alice were starting to worry about Ashton, he surprised them again.

Pew! Pew! Pew!

Hail of bullets flew everywhere, shocking them to the core. Each bullet flew at an alarming speed, causing the Revenants to feel surprised to do some evasive maneuvers.

There were explosions of colors all around Ashton. Hell, so much was going on that they couldn’t even see where he was at right now.

Bang!!!

“Urgh!” The Crow Demon King faltered on its flight, searching everywhere for the source of his injuries.

That shot pierced its left wing, causing its flight to be hindered. Fortunately for the demon, its regeneration kicked in swiftly and closed the wound.

The trio was gobsmacked, on the other hand, they could see where Ashton is and they couldn’t help but ask:

‘Is that a fucking Sniper Rifle?’

Yes, it is. Ashton would answer if they could ask. He is indeed using a sniper rifle to shoot at the annoying crow blotting out the sun above them.

Due to its large frame, he didn’t need to put much thought behind aiming since 9 times out of ten, he would hit it.

And while he’d be more than happy to run around in circles while also punching holes through the wings of the Crow Demon King, sadly that’s not his only concern. There are also other enemies around who are out to get him.

It’s really strange to see Angels and Demons working together against a common foe. One could clearly tell how incompatible they are since even the corruption they cause were clashing against each other.

Ashton however, could tell that they also know how to take advantage of that. The clash of their corruption could cause sufficient chaos and destruction that’s harmful enough for him to be mindful of.

Unfortunately for them though, Ashton was completely unafraid of corruption as he’s immune from it.

“Take this!!”

Ashton turned his head and saw a swarm of insects flying toward him. He grinned and his right eye flashed with a faint blue light. Then, all of a sudden, the swarm of insects completely disappeared as if they never existed.

“What!?” The one who launched the attack, a Broodmother Demon if Ashton recalls correctly, uttered in pure stupefaction.

She couldn’t believe that her insect swarm just disappeared like that. The worst part is that she didn’t even know how it happened.

“Enough of this!!” The white-eyed Seraphim shouted.

Suddenly, she glowed with a glorious golden brilliance as if she was the sun’s reincarnation.

As the golden brilliance oozed out of her, the demons around flew away as if terrified.

Ashton watched as several creatures manifested out of thin air. Angels with rotting flesh and dull expressions groaned and twitched as they appeared. There must be at least thousands who appeared here.

Blake, Mary, and Alice felt their hearts sinking to their stomach when they saw this. Ashton was now facing a literal horde on top of dealing with the revenants.

On the other hand, though, Ashton himself didn’t look worried. If anything, he just looked impressed, he even whistled and mused out loud.

“Wow, an Angel who uses Necromancy. Never thought I’d see the day this happens.”

And even as he speaks, the number of summoned creatures was still increasing. At this point, he’s already facing at least double the amount the Trio faced when they were against the Black Fog.

“I never thought that I’d be angered by a mere pest like you either, but here we are.” The white-eyed Seraphim replied. “You were a valiant warrior, Human. But your fight ends here. Obediently lay down your arms and join my undead army.”

Facing this threat…Ashton didn’t speak.

Instead, he just silently drew his Bone Scythe from his Inventory.
