Demon Slaying System - Chapter 97

Few seconds later.

The hidden injuries within levi were healed and so was her weakness which resolved shortly following it.

” Good! Seems like She’s all healed up. Let’s help those little followers of mine, before proceeding with further plans! ” Mark exclaimed internally, before heading towards the place where Sidmon and Clain were lying, the pair who needs immediate help this moment, with their worsened conditions which were critical than Gregor or Haylin to begin with.

But all of sudden mark halted his moments, looking at the delicate figure of levi, which looked pitiful.

The small figure of levi got up quicker, but immediately sat on top the floor with knees brought to her chest, tightly. Later fixed by the slender arms of her’s that curled around her folded legs like a tight lock to replicate.

Her head was bent downwards, buried deep in the little space between her knees, and she was clearly avoiding mark to prevent her embarrassed face from spotting out.

With her long disheveled hair which covered the innocent face of hers, which partly reached down till her ankles then to the floor below. Mark wasn’t able to spot that energetic face of hers, which used to smile on him.
for visiting.

” Why did she sat like that? ” Mark muttered lightly, closing his body towards her. Mark leaned towards Levi, moving aside the disheveled hair of her’s from her face, to spot her innocent face hidden within.

” Something is wrong with the situation here! Why do my instincts rang to move away from levi? Didn’t I just healed her injuries shortly? Did I do something wrong earlier… while healing her? ”

With a series of questions that ran through his mind, mark felt a sense of unease that ran through his mind, as if it was aimed towards him from levi. At the same time Mark tilted his tiny head, downwards, to clearly get the view of her face, hidden, beyond her hair.

Whoosh!

” The hell! What’s wrong with her head? Why did she tried killing me earlier? ” Mark pushed his body backwards, and escaped her sharp saber by hair breath, few of his hair strand caught up in the process, which burned down to smitter shortly following it.

He had to fall flatly on the floor, backwards, with his knees which were still bent sidewards a little, as he was not given enough time to begin with.

He had barely dodged her copper blade, which cut off few strands of his hair when she brandished her saber at high speed, and the intense heat produces generated by it, when it turned red hot was still sensible to mark.

To clarify things clearly, levi hadn’t even brandished this cherished saber of hers while fighting against the puppets before, l even when she was in a critical condition, she hasn’t done so.

But all of a sudden with a murderous intent she brandished it against mark, with the aim of severely wounding him, or at worst killing him. Which indicate the level of anger she had build up over mark.

Immediately following his miraculous escape, Mark lept backwards with all his strength to get away from this mad women. But fate had a different turn of events for him, as he was not fortunate enough to get away from her.

All of a sudden, levi disappeared from her place and reappeared beside him. It was as if the time had slowed by many times, mark was floating in the air moving behind at a slow pace, Levi was walking besides him slowly, with her face covered in hair as a ghost.

The aura extruded out from her face was terrifying. A palm was clearly visible to his eyes as the left arm of levi had reached over his face within a fraction of second.

The arm which was imbibed with mana had closed to him, present few inches away from his neck which shortly was held tight within her little fingers, followed by her abrupt smacking, which pushed him down over to the floor with a loud “bang!” that resounded throughout the test track.

She had dragged him down from the mid air, just in a fraction of second, and tosses him down with her fingers, locked up in his throat.

If it was for a normal practitioner in his realm, his head would had severed from his body by this sudden blow, and there wouldn’t be a chance to complaint later, if he felt himself being wronged.

Shortly followed by the left arm, she placed her right arm over his neck and strangling him tightly, shortly sitting on top his body locking him down to that defenseless position, rendering him hopeless to escape.

Earlier mark was not able to spot her face clearly, as black strands of hair had covered and prevented him from doing so. But right at this moment, her face was seen vividly by him at close, but for some reason this was about to cost him his life.

The innocent face of levi had turned red, and she clearly seemed exhausted, crystal clear eyes had acquired the colour of red, with tears that were dwelling from the corners of her eyes continuously.

Mark got a hint that he had done something wrong to her before, which may be terrible and probably had incurred her wrath and brought her to the extent of killing him. But he was not able to clearly remembered what made her turn on and do such a thing so?

Cough! Cough!

Levi’s tight hold was chocking him thoroughly, which made his face beet red with his veins that bulged twice the size originally on his head, his breathing got decreased and at the same time was clearly loosing his vision, as his pumping blood to the head was clearly blocked up by levi, who was not about to release him from the hold shortly.

” Stay still and get your punishment! You bastard… you deserved to di… ” She paused at there for a moment, looking at the face of mark that could die form asphyxia, she later released her hold, stating ” You leach… do you know the blunder you made earlier? Can you… handle that massive trouble you invoked on you…? Che, let’s get over with this test track to begin with, I’ll deal with you later! ” Her tone was carrying traces of extreme disgust as if mark had killed her nine generations to begin with or ravaged her body thoroughly, to act innocent later, as if he hadn’t done such thing wrong to begin with.

Stating these words before him, Levi gotten off him, cleaning off her tears from the corner of her collar before moving away from him, to harvest out the cores that they had to.

Cough! Cough!

Chocked by her earlier, mark gave out few coughs before rolling to a side, and took few deep breaths before getting up in his position looking around at the faces of spectators that had a complicated gazes over him.

While she was busy harvesting the cores from their bodies, Mark started healing others and provided them with mana to let them get over with the mana deficit.

Unlike before, mark this time around had healed them by normal means, to prevent getting hostility from these followers of his, but invoked further anger from levi who witnessed this scene.

” Bastard! He could had done as such, but yet… yet… ” She turned her head away from his gaze by then, and started ignoring his existence.

Gregor and Haylin, who had seen her transformation came to know her racial traits. Levi was a succubus to begin with, and an ultra rare three horned variety in top of it, so she must definitely had to have a strong background.

They even know the existence of others floors to begin with, and this levi might be one such figure descended form a higher floor, messing with her was was not suggested, yet their boss had brazenly done such deeds… they were dumbfounded and tongue tied that minute! ” Boss my condolences to you! ” Both of them exclaimed as a same time startling mark all of a sudden.

” Ding! Host had sunk himself to trouble! Deep trouble! Suggesting host to enter aura lord to survive out of this predicament! ” Even system had started warning him, but her tone was that of a mocking type with traces of laughter could be spotted if heard by one!

” Trouble! Trouble! Trouble! Just what is that damn trouble I am going to deal with? ” Mark bellowed internally in anger, all he know was that he had expended a large amount of mana in healing levi, but what he got in return was condolences and serious warnings?

Mark was quite frustrated this moment and was going to erupt from anger, if not for him being weaker than levi, he would had forcefully extracted out the cause from her mouth, but fate had made her a cultivation genius and she had reached an aura king at an age of ten, so forcing out was out if his option to consider!

” Ding! Host doesn’t need to bother at this moment, as host would be about to face it shortly… while moving out this platform! So work hard in becoming an aura lord sooner, if not hosts chance of getting himself killed is high! ”

” Understood! ” Mark bellowed internally and there were traces of anger in his tone as he was not provided with the thing he asked for.

Though system was not bothering with him to spit out the the cause, but one thing was for sure, unless he became an aura lord himself, his chances of getting killed by an unknown cause was high!

” Assemble! ” Mark bellowed loudly and gathered everyone towards his side, he later discussed his further plans and decided to rest at this third division for time being.

One had to know that the difficulty of this test track had risen to an another level, by some unknown cause. And it was not good for them to proceed towards fourth division hastly, it would be better if they didn’t had to, unless it was absolutely necessary.

The time period allotted for this track to run was four hours and mark decided to stay at this place until then, and if they weren’t able to exit out the track by then, the only way present to then was to break through the fourth division.

Levi was still angry with him, as she didn’t even bothered giving a nod to him, and was looking down on him, with the eyes of a murderer, as if he had done some thing wrong, a heinous thing to take note of!

“They said that raging flames and tunder storms subside as time goes by”. So mark decided to let her be, and ask about the cause from her mouth, when the time was right.

Since all have decided to take rest, and the time to spare until the four hours gets over was plenty, Mark decided to go through the advancement plan which picked his interest.

Mark opened the systems interface and scrolled through the information one by one, but a line had picked up his interest.

” A slayer doesn’t had to be a mad man that picks up on his targets! He also needs to be cultured and well versed in other occupations, which befits his status! ”

By other occupation mentioned here states professions which are respected in the eyes of cultivators. Alchemy, Array master, Weapon smith, physician, Tamer, Enhancer, Diviner, Spellbounder, Demonic tunist, soul master and others.

Each had a unique importance of their own and their status is far above that of a cultivator, who needs to queue before them to receive their favor. Though it may be directed to the well versed masters, of respective profession, as each profession were not to be belittled in the least
