I Was Born With A Demon Lord Inside Of Me, Who Wants To Kill

Chapter 55: Jetos Wrath

*Present time near Mal*

The man in a purple cloak was approaching them with slow steps. Whitebolt was healing himself and Maya took out her rapier.

-Who are you? – She screamed with menace.

Maya heard a disturbing chuckle. The man pulled away his hood and showed his face. He was an elf with grey skin and a white mohawk. He took a butlers pose.

-I will present to you as Jetos. – He made an evil grin, showing his sharp canines – I am the Ruler Of The Night Forest, the one who launched the invasion.

Without giving a second thought, Maya dashed into him, aiming at his head. Jetos didn't even flinch. He caught the rapier between his two fingers.

-So the elite guards lost their honor? – Jetos laughed at Maya.

Maya was surprised. She jumped back and dashed at him. Jetos stopped Maya again.

-Light Discharge! – Shouted Maya.

The swords tip started to glow. An explosion that was supposed to blast him away didn't even make a scratch.

-How have the mighty fallen. – Giggled Jetos.

His cloak got blasted away. Underneath was dark purple and black armor. He had dark green eyes.

-*Tsk* - Maya jumped back to safety.

Whitebolt approached Maya. He was startled.

-Who is this guy? – He asked Maya.

Maya didn't answer. She charged at Jetos with an agitated face with full speed. At the blink of an eye, she was attacking him with outstanding speed. However, Jetos was dodging them with minimal movement of just his one arm. He even yawned to make fun of Maya. Jetos suddenly caught a lightning spear in his other arm. Maya saw an opening and tried to pierce him. Her eyes went dead after her rapier shattered trying to pierce his armor.

-This is your strongest warrior? – Asked Jetos. He looked annoyed – Looks like I don't even need to fight.

Whitebolt and the others were shocked to see Maya in a state like this. She held her shattered blade with a devastated face.

-Who are you... - She said in a frail tone.

-Don't make me repeat myself. I am Jetos, Ruler Of The Night Forest.

He snapped his fingers. Behind him black portals with purple shading on the edges appeared.

-What are your intentions!? – Shouted Maya.

Jetos chuckled.

-I have only one intention. That is, to acquire the Gem Of Life. - He answered in a serious tone.

-The Gem Of Life? – Thought Maya – Hah! For you to get that you need to defeat all of Sigils forces! – She tried to talk down on Jetos.

-And I will.

-You will? Don't make me lau... Augh... - Maya coughed blood.

-You still made me use Void Arm. All you had to do is kept silence and accepted my mercy. – Jetos teared out Mayas heart from her chest, piercing her armor – Instead, – He hysterically giggled – you will become monster food.

Jetos dropped her heart from the black extension of his arm. Whitebolt fell on his knees while others were shaking out of fear. Jetos entered the portal with a grin on his face. From them, hordes of monsters came. There even were a couple of those mountain sized golems. Dark Golems, Bebels, Dark slimes and Death Bats came out and started heading towards the city.

-No, this can't be happening. – Said Whitebolt in despair.

-RUN! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! – Screamed one adventurer.

They started fleeing without a thought of fighting. Whitebolt couldn't do much alone and followed them. He created an electric barrier to keep them off. It was instantly destroyed by the giant golem. Whitebolts peers died one by one in his sight. Bebels were catching up to them. Whitebolt threw spears at them, killing them, but they were too many.

-Is Mal evacuated!? – Whitebolt asked one guard that was running beside him.

-YES! – Screamed the guard. A Bebel pounced on him and ripped him apart with his tails.

Whitebolt was devastated, but continued his way after killing it. After hour of running, he reached a safe spot. He was exhausted and was running out of MP.

-Who was that? – He thought – Maya, she died in despair without mercy. – He clenched his fists – If only I was stronger. – He bit his lip, making it bleed – Where is Duster when we need him!? – In anger, he punched a tree – I won't forgive him.

Whitebolt continued to walk, heading towards a nearby village to warn them about the impending doom.

*Meanwhile at the Night Forest*

-All this power from just a fraction of his. – Jetos looked at his hand – I will keep my promise.

*Meanwhile at the mansion*

Rekka was lying in his bed. He still couldn't get over Hideos death. He felt guilty, but deep down he knew that it wasn't his fault. Suddenly, he heard loud noise and the mansion trembled. He stood up and ran to the maids.

-What's going on!? – Asked anxious Rekka.

-We don't know. – Answered one maid.

The mansion shook again, shattering the roof this time.

-It's an earthquake. – Nervously said one maid.

The maids all gathered together. Some of them teared up and some of them started praying. Harumi came too and said:

-It's coming from the city!

Rekka ran outside. Even though we was scared, he was interested of what was going on. He approached the city and got overwhelmed with fear. Giant golems were ravaging the town. People screams for survival deafened Rekka. He saw a maid was running towards him with two Bebels running after her. Rekka didn't get flustered. He ran to save the maid.

-Run, I will keep them off! – He said.

The maid nodded and continued.

-Wait, these are... - Rekka was attacked by a Bebel.

Rekka dodged it's attack and threw a fireball at it. It was unaffected.

-I remembered, they are immune to fire! – Though Rekka.

He was losing confidence. Rekka could barely dodge their attacks.

-What to do, what to do!

He couldn't run away. Rekka remembered Whitebolts technique of creating weapons from magic and tried to mimic it. He failed.

-Come on, please work! – Rekka was praying.

He then created a sharp rod made out of fire.

-This is not a sword!

A Bebel pounced on Rekka. He instinctively moved his rod and targeted it at the monster. When Rekka opened his eyes, he saw the Bebel was dead, hanging on the sharp fire rod. The other Bebel got scared and ran away.

-Just like last time... - Thought Rekka – What is going on... What are they...

He watched as monsters were destroying the city and massacring people.

-NO! MAEKO, KAITO, SORA! – He ran towards the city in tears but Harumi stopped him, pulling the back of his shirt.

-NO REKKA, WE MUST RUN – Harumi was crying too, as she was worried about her family – WE MUST RUN AWAY TO SAFETY BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!

-NOO! MY FRIENDS!

Harumi took Rekka away. The young boy was crying, dropping tears on the green grass. The maids prepared carriages to run away. All of them were safe. Rekka resisted, but eventually stopped crying and got into it with Harumi.

-No... My friends... My only friends... - Rekka started crying again. He suddenly looked at Harumi – WHAT ABOUT WHITEBOLT!?

-Don't worry, - Harumi was wiping of her tears – he is strong, he will survive.

The maids were scared too. One of them pointed at a black portal far away. From it, monsters were coming.

-Who could've done this. – Thought the maids.

They saw the guards trying to fight them, but they were dying without killing any monsters.

A man approached the destroyed city. He took off his black gloves.

-Jetos, I won't forgive you. – Said Duster and disappeared.
