Primordial Soul's Rebirth

Chapter 277: CHAPTER 277 - Alex’s show of power.

//// I'm really sorry for the miss in the update!

It was storming here yesterday, I had no internet access of anything that could help me upload my chaps, so again, I'm sorry for that.

I'll try to not let that happen every again! ////

"Heh…"

Alex, who had his face toward the ground, finally looked up.

'Huh?'

The demon general, for some unknown reason, felt that something was not right.

They could see Alex's black and gold eyes which had turned black and purple a while ago, were now changing into black and red.

They frowned as Alex's red pupil made them feel uncomfortable for some reason….

"A surprise attack, and then a continuous barrage of attacks…."

Alex's voice fell as a grin made its way to his lips.

"Yet all you could do was smash me into the ground…"

Alex's grin widened as destruction energy started to cover his fist….

The demon generals' eyes widened, and they just realized that Alex had yet to attack in the last short battle.

"Stop him!"

Valerius ordered with a serious face.

"Let's see how you would do if I were to use everything at my disposal…."

Alex on the other hand just continued with a grin.

*Woosh*

He could already see Malak dashing toward him.

His eyes could follow their movements while his body couldn't, just like before.

But this time, Alex wasn't going to try tightening physically.

'Let's see how fast my spell-casting speed is….'

Alex chuckled inwardly before he increased the concentration of destruction energy coming out of his palm and now his feet as well.

Malak, on the other hand, increased his speed.

'I won't let you!'

He exclaimed inwardly as he saw the destruction energy was about to touch the blood chains binding Alex to the ground.

Malak was the strongest among them when it came to physical strength, so he was the one who always took the close combat department.

Right now, he could tell that Alex was trying to break free of the blood chains, but Malak was going to stop Alex before that, or so he thought…..

Malak rushed at Alex and just as he arrived in front of Alex, he clenched his fist and sent it straight at Alex's face.

But just then….

"Zone: Pioneer of the elements."

Malak heard a mutter escaping Alex's mouth.

He didn't know what that was, or what Alex was trying to do, but his instinct screamed for him to back away.

'Shit!'

Malak curved as he felt a wave washing over him.

He felt as if some kind of layer was passing over him.

His fist that was about to reach Alex was the first thing to get covered in the zone.

Malak, however, sensed something wrong, so he tried to retract his hand but…

"ARGHHHHH!!!"

He suddenly felt his arm, which was covered in that strange layer, heating up at a very fast rate.

He hurriedly pulled his hand back, but before he could do it….

*Boom*

His hand was blasted into smithereens because of the internal heat.

"GAHHHHHHHHH!!"

The pain he felt from the heating up and internal veins and tissues blasting was a bit too much.

He quickly jumped back, creating distance between himself and Alex.

Malak didn't know that Alex had compressed the zone's range to 5 meters just because that would help him have more control over the zone.

Right now, Alex had to expand his mana on transformation, maintaining the connection with Shatter devourer, and to top it all off, Malak was a strong opponent, so he couldn't control Malak's body heat that easily.

"Hah… Hah… Hah…"

Malak, on the other hand, breathed heavily as he stared at Alex warily.

He couldn't see the zone, he could feel it but not look at it.

None of the demon generals could see what caused Malak to lose his arm.

"We can't go near him, there's something strange surrounding him…"

Malak muttered while holding his right hand which was slowly regenerating.

'That's one problem out of the equation…'

Alex smiled inwardly as his plan worked better than he had expected.

Alex couldn't keep using the zone if he wanted to keep the transformation and the connection with the shatter devourer active, after all, both of them burned a lot of mana.

So, all he needed to do was show them that he could use it, he didn't need to keep it active all the time.

If, by chance, they try to attack again, then he could just activate the zone again.

'My casting speed right now is quite fast, after all…'

Alex uttered inwardly.

Now, both Malak and Nyx won't try to come closer to Alex for a while.

Yes, Nyx was sneaking up on Alex as well.

Maybe he thought that last time Alex found out where he was on a fluke or something.

Even the strongest demons have never found him when he uses his ability, so it's not without a reason that he thinks like that.

'Phase two now…'

Alex, on the other hand, turned serious again.

He knew that even if he stopped two of them, he wasn't safe, and he didn't defeat them, he just stopped them.

*Crack**Shatter*

The blood chains finally shattered as the destruction energy ate up the chains that were holding Alex's wrists and ankles.

"Hah….

Finally some freedom…."

Alex took a deep breath and smiled as he massaged his wrists.

The destruction energy was still covering his wrist and ankles, and he didn't seem to have any intentions of removing them…

*Swoosh*

Again, just like before, the same bone spikes came out of the earth, trying to pierce Alex, but this time, Alex was prepared.

He turned his right palm toward his back, and just as the spikes came out of the ground…..

*BOOM*

A blast of destruction energy was launched at the bone spike coming out of the ground, creating a loud booming sound.

Dust rose, and the generals' bodies tensed.

The bones that were supposed to come out of the ground were already ashes right now.

"Let me show you guys my favorite weapon…"

Alex's voice was heard from within the dust.

The demon generals squint their eyes.

They could see through the dust, and that was the reason for the dubious looks in their eyes.

All they could see was a normal-looking sword.

A black hilt and silver blade.

Nothing special.

But the next second.

*Dun*

Like a beast that had been concealing its aura, the blade released its aura, and they realized why Alex called it his favorite weapon.

The energy it released was enough for it to be stronger than the most treasured weapon in the demon empire.

'Just who is he…?'

They grew more and more confused about Alex's identity. They already knew that Alex was not like any of the demon king stories they heard before.

He was unlike what the history told.

The summoned person was supposed to be weak, and grow stronger if given time, but Alex…..

He was something else.

However, their eyes widened as they saw something even more shocking.
