Chapter 166
166 Payback (1)
“Sorry Robus, I forget you are still tied up.” Blake used his other hand to pat the huge creature behind him.
Blake then moved his body forward and stopped leaning on Robus.
Blake had recovered a substantial amount of nether with his doubled nether regeneration speed, and he was now already capable of standing with some support.
But he didn’t stand right away. He just made sure that his body wasn’t glued to Robus before he spoke to the new demon that joined his team.
“Cyra, can you please help me to free Robus? The darkness tendrils were tying him up and making him uncomfortable.”
“Sure!”
With her body still sitting on top of Blake’s, Cyra casually waved her hand, releasing a torrent of dark flame from the tips of her fingers.
She was quite startled by the color of her flames changing but feeling how easy it was for her to control it and having the familiar feeling of the flames as a part of herself, Cyra quickly adapted to it and moved the torrent of flames to go onto the surface of Robus’ dark earth armor.
“The flames are much more obedient now!” Cyra muttered out loud as she looked at her own flames with affection.
.....
And indeed, Blake didn’t know that Cyra could control her flames like what he was currently seeing.
Before, Blake only received fireballs and fire blades from her. The flames that had left her body had left her control and just exist on their own.
But now, the flames, even after they left her body, were still able to be controlled by her, moving left and right, up and down as the dark flame easily consumed the darkness tendrils that bound Robus’ body onto the ground.
Blake looked with amazement at how easy it was for the dark flames to destroy the darkness tendrils that took him a long time to destroy with her previous arsenal of spells.
The dark flames just went past the darkness tendrils and upon the intense heat of the dark flames that were even hotter than the original flames made contact with the dozens of darkness tendrils, the latter just started crumbling as if they were evaporated by the flames.
After a short 5 seconds passed, all the darkness tendrils that bound Robus’ body had all disappeared from existence, and the huge gorilla was finally able to move his body freely.
“RR...”
It was the first sentence that Robus said right after he got out. And hearing that, Blake couldn’t help but share the same sentiment as him. However,
“Let’s rest up a little first, Robus. With our new friend here, we would be able to do it without any planning whatsoever.” Blake once again rubbed Cyra’s head, making the latter smile again.
“rr?”
“Don’t worry about it, your only job would be crushing a lot of things with your fist.”
“R!”
“And Cyra, after I filled up my nether, which wouldn’t be as long now because of you, we will play with those demons again, do you want to do it?”
“Of course! I want to play!”
Half an hour later, the group of three was standing on the edge of the forest that was directly adjacent to the humanoid demon’s base.
They were looking at the dozens of humanoid demons walking around the perimeter of the walls that they’d built, sheltering hundreds more of them inside.
“Cyra, this is how we will play the game.” Blake looked at the little demoness that was looking at him with excited, ‘can’t wait to play’ eyes.
“I will go to the right side of the base, you will go left. From there, we will start blazing everything around us, and the one who was faster to get to the middle of the base while burning everything on that side of the base will win. What do you think?”
“I agree! Prepare to lose brother! No one can burn anything faster than me!”
Blake then nodded his head, before looking at Robus.
“For you pal, let’s get your revenge. You will go to the main gate and crush everything your eyes can see. Don’t worry about causing too much commotion or anything else. Just go wild.”
“RR!”
“Then on the count 3...”
“1...2...3!”
Upon Blake’s voice said the number 3, the current hell broke loose as havoc and utter chaos descended on the humanoid demon’s base, filled with hundreds of humanoid demons.
Those numbers might have seemed scary, but the actual humanoid hunters in the base who could at least give an attempt in fighting back the onslaught by the group only numbered in the dozens as more than half of them had been eradicated by Cyra earlier.
And most of the humanoid demons inside were only the half malnourished humanoid demons that were gathering wood and building ships.
So when Blake, Robus, and Cyra came out of the forest and started blasting off, the humanoid demons that were present outside the wall of the base couldn’t even fight back as their face was either burned by dark flames or crushed by a man-sized fist.
Cyra, was the first one to reach the wall on the left side of the base, she was the fastest due to using explosions to get herself flying through the air, an ability that Blake didn’t have yet due to his current control of the flames being worse than the newborn Cyra.
Robus was the second to arrive at the front gate of the base as it only took him several leaps with his incredible raw strength. Even the simple act of him leaping through the air had caused casualties from the humanoid demon’s side if they were unlucky enough to be on Robus’ landing spot.
However, that doesn’t mean that Blake was very slow either. When he said the number 3 and two of his friends had launched themselves off, Blake cast the single darkness tendril spells with both hands and aimed them at two parallel trees.
And with him already activating his new bloodline power, the darkness tendrils that were supposedly all black in color and only being a single darkness tendrils, now had a dark flame casing covering their body, causing the tree that Blake had latched the darkness tendril on to catch fire.
But as Blake quickly pulled the darkness tendrils before the fire was able to spread and destroy the trees, Blake’s body was launched forward, once again making himself a human catapult using the two parallel trees and the single darkness tendrils.
Blake’s advance was a little bit slower since he could only barely make fireballs with his new bloodline power, but those fireballs were more than enough to kill the humanoid demons in an almost instant manner.
When Blake had just arrived on the right side of the base, he heard two loud booms as two sides of the walls of the base had crumbled down. One from a fire explosion, the other one from being punched by a walking huge boulder.
Blake was thinking about what he should use to break open the wall in front of him or whether he should just jump over it by launching himself up in the air with an earth pillar.
However, remembering the two loud booms that his two friends had caused, Blake decided that he didn’t want to lose out on the fun.
‘It’s not every day I can do this.’
Blake then raised his left hand and started pouring his nether which turned to dark flames before gathering them in the palm of his hand.
Blake was about to do the same with his right hand, but he suddenly got an idea.
Instead of doing the same thing and gathering fire elemental nether on his right palm, Blake began drawing the runes to cast a darkness bullet.
And with the nether running in his body being affected by the ‘Child of The Dark Flame’ bloodline power, the darkness bullet that was supposed to be a bundle of darkness elements will now be covered in the dark flame if it manifested itself.
However, before Blake let the runes flash and disappeared, Blake combined his two hands, placing the bundle of dark flames right on top of the glowing runes before finally letting the runes manifest the spell.
Upon the spell manifesting, it manifested right inside the bundle of dark flames.
And as if the dark flame inside the darkness bullet spell recognized the dark flame outside as part of it, the darkness bullet shot forward, carrying along the bundle of dark flame with the same speed or even faster than a normal darkness bullet.
The fireballs were strong and destructive, but in terms of speed, it still loses out to the darkness bullet.
But now that the darkness bullet carried the fireball along with it, the fireball traveled as fast as the darkness bullet, giving the darkness bullet the same destructiveness that a fireball had.
When the two combined elements crashed on the wooden wall, another explosion was heard on the humanoid demon’s base. And now, there were three gaping walls on the humanoid demon’s base.
