Chapter 744 Blake Against Demon Lord Aranthas
-----
Giant Arachneia, Giant Wasps, and Blazing Scorpions appeared across the battlefield, alongside a few dozen Fenrir and some aerial support on Dracos, all led by their respective Commanders, whose stats were much higher than the other lesser Familiars.
Their huge bodies could not be stopped by the vast majority of the demons, whose power was only comparable at most to D Rank Demons. The stronger ones around C Rank, such as the Demon Generals, were already being massacred by the Undead beforehand, and had all their hands full against them.
On top of that, these Familiars dropped from the sky, shaking the entire Demon Citadel, and worsening everything even more for the "poor" demons. Three groups composed of Blake's friends and Spirits immediately set into three different directions, seeking the Demon Lord auras they felt, and that even stronger presence, while also looking for survivors.
"You damn HUMANS!!!"
Aranthas roared, his smaller body suddenly growing up to ten times his normal size, resembling a mix between a demonic dragon and a demonic bird, with the head of a ferocious crow and the red scales of a red Oni, with big and sharp black horns on top of his head.
His height now reaching over thirty meters of height, with enormous, muscular arms, huge black feathered wings, and sharp golden claws… He exuded a fraction of the might of his Lord Satan, the Archdemon of Wrath.
"Hahahah… HAHAHAHA! Do you feel it now?! The difference between you and me?!" Laughed Aranthas, looking down on Blake, who was right in front of him.
On his eyes, there was not even a hint of fear, whatsoever… This deeply made Aranthas angered, that a pathetic human didn't knew their place in the food chain!
"Difference? Ah, yes, I can tell just by looking." Blake smiled. "There's indeed a huge difference between you and me… Aranthas, was it?"
"E-Eh?! How do you know my name?!" Aranthas asked, instinctively stepping back.
"I can see it." Blake smiled, his eyes being capable of "Appraising" even living beings now to an extent thanks to the Appraisal Stone being absorbed by his Grimoire. "One of the many Demon Lords serving Satan, the Archdemon of Wrath, was it? He's a sucker for beast-looking bastards like you. Too bad, I'll have to ruin his fun once more."
"Y-You're too cocky… Human!" Roared Aranthas, still unaware of the true identity of Blake unlike the other Demon Lords. "I'll show you the might of a Demon Lord!!!"
His huge claws overflowed with Demonic Flames, as he instantly unleashed a barrage of powerful slashing attacks against Blake's small body. Each claw pierced through the sound barrier itself, generating tremendous shockwaves with every successful strike.
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRAAASH!
"Blake!" Erika panicked while she was fighting a dozen Demon Generals at once.
"Don't worry about him." Eleanora smiled, impaling the heart of a Demon General leisurely with her spear.
"He said he had a lot of pent-up stress after knowing how much the demons ruined this place… So he wants to deal with him alone, we better not get in the way when he goes all-out." Elizabeth sighed, her light burning an army of demons surrounding her, while her sprits protected her.
Before arriving here, Blake had said that he would take down a Demon Lord all by himself, to test his strength… And well, to release a lot of pent-up stress he had accumulated.
"Hahahaha! PERISH, lowly HUMAN!"
Aranthas couldn't help but laugh as he crushed Blake with his tremendously strong attacks, comparable to B++ Rank Monster's strength!
However, as the smoke dissipated from his explosive blows, Blake remained… there, standing still. Several messages continuously emerged within his Grimoire.
[You have undergone a partial [Draconification]! All of your Stats have increased greatly. You can now wield Dragon Energy much more proficiently.]
[You have activated the [Fusion] Skill. Temporarily, your own body's Dragon Scales have merged with the equipped [Red Wyvern's Armor Set (Unique Grade)] to create the [Vampiric Dragon Armor Set (Mythic Grade)]!]
[The power Dragon Armor encompasses your entire body with a mighty aura of Dragon Energy, enhancing your Physical and Magical Defenses by a further +200%.]
[Duration: 30 Minutes.]
He was wearing a full red and black colored scaled armor, made out of his Wyvern Scale Armor that Chris gifted to him, alongside his own Dragon Scales from his Draconification Transformation, which temporarily fused with them through his Fusion Skill.
The Fusion Skill, as a matter of fact, didn't simply work with items to synthetize together. It could interact with Skills, Magic, equipment, and even his own body.
"Hm? Was that it?" Blake wondered, looking at Aranthas. "That didn't even break my scales…"
"W-What…?!" Aranthas stepped back in shock. "T-That armor you're wearing… Did you made that out of Demonic Dragon's Scales?!"
"Oh? Well, my little boy over there is indeed a Demonic Dragon, I guess I simply got them upgraded." Blake smiled.
The reason why he hadn't absorbed nor done anything else with the Demonic Dragon Scales he got was because he could get them anyways through his Draconification.
"Are you done with your pitiful display of strength, Aranthas?" Blake asked with an angered expression on his face. "I thought you said you were… Oh so powerful, weren't you? What's wrong, can't defeat a kid now?"
"Y-YOUUUU!!!" Aranthas lost his composure, what Blake was aiming for this entire time through such words, the furious Demon quickly flapped his wings, lifting into the skies as he opened his gigantic beak and unleashed a powerful breath attack. "[Infernal Demon Breath]!!!"
TRUUUUUMMM…!
The breath attack gathered into a powerful, concentrated spiraling beam of destructive Demon Flames as strong as the Magic that B++ Rank monsters could conjure, if not even stronger as it was further boosted through the Archdemon Core Fragment he had absorbed!
BOOOOOOOMMMM…!
A huge blazing explosion consumed Blake, Aranthas was now sure that the young man must have been turned into ashes!
"HAH! That's what you get for disrespecting a being as powerful as me! Know your place, Huma- Ahhh?!"
FLUOOOSH!
However, all the flames within the explosion started to distort, spiraling around Blake's hand and generating a huge sphere of red, crimson flames.
"And you call those flames?" Blake asked. "Let me show you what true flames are, Aranthas. [Infernal Demonic Flames Authority]!"
