REINCARNATION SIM GAME - Chapter 84 84 – The Red Demon
Meanwhile, inside the main room of that building.
Yua still managed to force a smile on her face. “My heart hurts, Tamaki-san. I thought we were friends. You were so kind to Taka-san and me.”
“We are creatures that are already above humans.” Tamaki laughed. “We can’t be friends with lowly beings like you who don’t want true power!”
“How could it be like this?” One of the guards hissed. “You manipulated these two ninjas!? You shouldn’t remember who you are!”
Tamaki smiled broadly, showing her sharpened teeth. “Ah, that’s right. You gave us the illusion of living as humans by building those houses… Giving us human clothes and food even though we didn’t need it…. You distracted us from our true form, making us forget…. But, you treat us so badly…. Our resentment grows, and our hatred continues to overflow…. And you forget, all of that is the essence of our existence! The core that defines who we are!”
“Revenge, hatred…. Some things that cause evil.” Taka said with trembling lips. “Things that demons always have.”n0𝓥𝓔𝐋𝑈𝓢𝒷.𝓬0𝔪
“That’s why we remember it again…. Our hearts returned to being demons, even though our bodies haven’t!!!” Tamaki laughed like crazy.
And strangely enough, Yua laughed too. This behavior, of course, surprised the others..
“Hey, what are you doing, bitch!?” Tamaki snapped. “What’s so funny, huh!?”
The kunoichi took a few steps forward. “Demons are higher in rank than humans? Seriously!? If that’s true, why are the ones ruling the entire world still humans!? How come you guys were locked up in this pitiful place!? You guys are nothing! You guys are just pests that need to be exterminated for interfering with human life!”
Blood vessels started to appear on Tamaki’s face. His sharp, menacing gaze fell on Yua. “You know what, huh!? We’re….” The demon choked, looked at the priestess who was still performing the ritual, then laughed again. “Ah, you guys are buying time for her to complete the seal…. I still haven’t fully transformed…. My mind is still a bit foggy….”
Suddenly, Tamaki dashed forward. The seven soldiers confronted Tamaki. The demon couldn’t do much about it as the men slashed and stabbed him from all directions, leaving his body covered in blood.
Tamaki straightened his body and let out a deafening roar. An invisible force radiated from his body, blowing the people away.
And after that, it was Yua and Taka who made the attack. Yua uses her wakisazhi, while Taka held his kunai. They gave alternate and continuous slashes as if they had already practiced synchronization attacks.
The demon was overwhelmed and barely able to dodge, leaving his body covered in the blood even more.
However, he hasn’t fallen yet.
“Move, Yua, Taka!” Elise came from one of the doors and ran to Tamaki from behind.
Having exchanged glances, Yua and Taka jumped in opposite directions. Elise swung her sword from the down to the up with all her might, accompanied by a high jump.
Being hit by the impact of Elise’s sword, Tamaki’s body was thrown upwards.
However, the demon spun in the air and then smoothly landed on the floor.
“What the hell!” One of the guards cursed. “We basically just chopped him up!”
“Look! The wounds!” Another guard chimed in.
Even though blood was still all over his body, the demon’s wounds had healed entirely.
“Ah, I just transformed again after a long time.” Tamaki looked at his right hand. “My attack moves aren’t what they used to be yet.”
Then, the demon’s body grew taller, and the muscles in his body also enlarged many times over. He was no longer skinny but more like a bodybuilder weighing hundreds of pounds.
“Let’s the game begin.” Tamaki grinned.
Yua got massive goosebumps. Will she and the others be able to defeat that monstrous demon?
“Don’t be afraid!!!” Kurosaki, the supreme leader of the guards, joined the others. “We don’t need to defeat him! We just need to restrain him from coming to Yamaya-sama!”
“You know why I’m still chatting with you guys?” Tamaki chuckled. Waiting a few seconds and still getting no response, he shrugged. “That’s because I’m confident in my own abilities now. I can beat you guys in seconds.”
“Don’t be swayed by his bullcrap!” Kurosaki shouted before his men trembled. “He just wants to scare us so we can’t fight properly!”
“Ah, I hate you so much, Kurosaki-san.” The demon sighed, then ran to those people.
“Attack!” Kurosaki’s order made his squad members, Yua, Taka, and Elise, run forward.
The demon had only run a few feet, and a flash of light appeared. Lightning struck the Tamaki’s body, sending the demon to its knees, charred and covered in burns.
The guards, the two ninjas, and the female warrior stopped, looking at the hole in the ceiling that Yua had made earlier. Raymund’s lightning came in from there.
Mona, who had been hiding all this time, appeared and pounced on Tamaki’s neck from behind, forcing the demon to fall.
“Damn…” Raymund heaved a sigh of relief. What he did just now was really a gamble. He did use the slow-motion feature, but he still had trouble determining when the demon passed under the hole.
“Sorry, sir,” Elise whispered while looking down so that the others wouldn’t notice her. “I missed the location you set.”
Yua widened his eyes. So, the rising slash that Elise did was to throw the demon under the hole?
“Why are you even talking to me?” Raymund snorted. “Order them to detain the demon. I don’t think he’ll be like that for long.”
“Th-this is our chance!” Elise forced herself to scream. “We have to take down the demon!”
“Who appointed you as the leader!?” One of the guards snapped, and Kurosaki hit him in the head.
“Follow this girl’s orders!” The troop leader was the first to run forward, followed by the others.
However, only Yua remained where she was. While the others stabbed at the demon, she looked up.
“You should be the one giving the order, Yua.” Raymund sighed. “Maybe because the fight was too intense or because of the effect of the pill you took, you didn’t realize I was yelling at you earlier.”
“Sorry, sir.” Yua massaged her head which didn’t really hurt much. She had been so focused on fighting that she ignored her surroundings.
