'Oi, oi. Can it breathe poison as well? This is going to be annoying… or easy if Selena can figure out what to do.' Nathan glanced at the second head. 'If it can breathe poison, does that mean the other head has a healing breath or something?'
'I see. In other words, it has six abilities: poison, heal, strength, shield, absorption, and dispersion. Is there a demon ?'
No matter how hard he was thinking, he couldn't find any demons with this kind of strength, at least in his memories.
'Then again, not all of them are from the mythologies that I know of. Even the Fairy Queen is called Charlotte instead of Titania. If that's the case, I will have to somehow take down this opponent.'
Nathan became even more excited. He wanted to win against this demon without the soul contract.
With that thought in mind, Nathan charged forward.
The demon let out another breath of poison, but Nidhogg dove and released his own breath, burning the poison.
After that, Fenrir used his Gigantification and approached the demon's 'Strength' arm. Nathan approached the 'Absorption' arm. While running, he gathered his Ena in his fist as much as possible.
As if knowing what Nathan wanted, Selena approached the 'Dispersion' arm while pointing at the 'Defensive' arm.
Risa and Yin Zhen headed to that arm while Sasha flew up, making the demon's head focus on her.
"Huh?" Brunhild frowned, not knowing what they were trying to do.
Out of the four Ena Manipulations, Nathan focused on Fortify. Meanwhile, Selena focused on Augmentation.
That was why the moment Nathan reached the 'Absorption' arm, he had gathered all his Ena in his first. "If you think you can absorb this, then do it!"
Nathan punched the palm. The demon tried to absorb it, but this attack didn't contain only Fortify. It also had Sera's Synchronization.
The punch caused a massive burst of Ena. It was so big that the shock wave's thunderous sound was like a dragon's roar as it knocked back the arm.
The demon took a step back, regaining his balance.
However, Fenrir immediately struck his 'Strength' arm. Even in that position, the demon managed to punch Fenrir, blowing him away.
'Kh.' Fenrir landed on the ground with his head bleeding.
However, Fenrir was nothing but a distraction. The real attack was left in Selena.
Yin Zhen and Risa first released their respective abilities.
The 'Defensive' arm immediately moved forward, forming a barrier that blocked their attack.
After that, Selena came to the 'Dispersion' arm. She summoned her avatar once again. However, there was something different from this avatar.
There was no skeletal frame, which meant it should be weaker. Instead, all that Ena was moving toward the right hand as if she were using the Dragon Fist, but with her avatar.
The demon used his 'Dispersion' arm to disperse this amount of Ena, but that had never been Selena's concern. In fact, she didn't even fight back against the dispersion. It was as if Selena wanted it that way.
As soon as the Ena dispersed in the air, Selena waved her staff down, forming a giant sphere.
"!!!" The demon was stunned.
Selena just switched from an avatar to a giant blast. And the demon had nothing to fight against it.
The blast launched the demon away, his ribs getting crushed.
'They're doing something interesting.' Bella looked amused. 'I see. That girl's control is something else. She intentionally formed that avatar so that the demon would disperse it, allowing her to change her attack. On the other hand, if the demon didn't do it, she would simply hit the demon as hard as she could, which would be serious even to that demon.
'It's no wonder why the rest are sealing the other hands. Still, to be able to achieve all that without even saying anything. How do they even achieve that?'
Nathan and Selena had fought a lot of battles together. In addition, Selena had been absorbing all kinds of methods Nathan used against his enemy. It wasn't weird for Selena to see through such an obvious intention.
The demon fell onto his back. Its stomach tilted inwardly as if the flesh and muscle on the stomach broke through the ribs due to the blast earlier.
"What are you doing? Stand up now!" The summoner's angry voice echoed across the field.
"Rooo?" The demon hurriedly got up, but to no avail. The damage was quite serious. Nidhogg and Sasha remained airborne, making sure that the two heads didn't do anything to harm others or repair his body.
As a result, the demon could only rise to his knees.
Sera clenched her fists. Even though Nathan had said they would fight together, she didn't do much. Even Brunhild couldn't even react to their strategy.
When Nathan and Selena wanted to deliver a devastating blow, the summoner's voice stopped them. "As expected, you are useless!"
He took out a cube that was glowing in white. As soon as the demon saw this cube, it panicked, as if something terrible was about to appear.
It let out a groan as his hand tried to reach the cube, pleading with his summoner not to do something like that.
'What is that cube? The familiar is scared? I need to stop him, but I'm too far. It's too late.' Bella bit her lips.
"If only you're useful, I won't have to do this." The summoner harrumphed and crushed the cube.
The demon's eyes suddenly rolled back as he screamed at the top of his lungs. Such a huge and menacing demon was actually crying.
"!!!" Nathan and Selena widened their eyes, not because of the demon's reaction but because of what happened to the demon's body.
Black-colored cells began emerging on the surface of his skin, covering the part that had been crushed by Selena's earlier. The deformed part actually recovered, showing immense tenacity from its cells.
More importantly, the black cells spread all over its body. Multiple tentacles ripped apart its back and twirled around. The two upper arms were covered in black cells and formed one-edge blades, while the two lower arms turned into shields.
The demon couldn't speak or let out any voice. However, it released an aura that was incomparable to the original demon.
"This is…' Nathan, Selena, and Sera shuddered, feeling the immense pressure.
Even Bella couldn't believe it. "Did he just turn his familiar into an alien? And this aura… it's similar to a mature class demon."
