10 Bolts Of Truth

[Congratulations on Entering a C-grade Dungeon]

It was a grade higher than the last dungeon he had been in but Azaroth understood, the dungeons were met to be mercilessly, it wasn't supposed to wait for him to level up and meet up- No he could be sent to any given dungeon.

The room where Azaroth found himself in was dark but he smiled, not only did partially removing the Destruction element from POD grant him the ability to create gateways but it also helped him in developing a unique sensory magic.

Red eyes glimmered in the darkness as they locked onto his figure, Rem was prepared as he entered a combat stance, sweat rolled down his forehead as their presences sparked a little bit of surprise within him.

'STONE GOLEM'

"Golems huh?" Azaroth muttered under his breath as the first one moved toward him, despite being made of stone, it was fast in closing the gap.

Azaroth was sure that if it had been a month ago, he would not be able to defeat this golem but a month and now were two different things- He moved toward the golem as well, in the private training area with no one laying eyes on him, Azaroth was able to perfect and hone his martial arts to prevent wasted movement.

The spars with Grayfia that became very heated helped him increase his STR and SPD stats with each fight and Azaroth was grateful, during training with Rias, they competed using their POD and this helped Azaroth hone the speed and power of his orbs of POD.

His eyes fixated upon the Golem, despite it's body being engulfed in darkness, Azaroth was clearly able to see it and a calm golden spark surrounded his palm as he slammed it into the Golem, sending it flying and disintegrating upon impact.

As Azaroth landed on the ground, he moved to the right just in time as a huge rock landed on where he stood.

"Heh, too slow," Azaroth said as he located the nearest Golem and his right arm lit up in golden lightning, he slammed it into the head area of the Golem and crushed it with brute force.

The body of the Golem fell limply to the ground and disintegrated into sand.

Azaroth smiled as his attack worked once again.

Normal electric currents couldn't be passed on through stone but the Bolts of truth weren't normal electric currents, they were bolts created by the power and will of the soul- As long as one's will was strong enough, the bolts could do anything the user willed himself to doing.

Transferring electric currents to the core and bypassing the Stone Golem's power was little to the power of Azaroth's will, and even now he was using the Golems and darkness as a chance to grow as a warrior.

More boulders were descending but Azaroth dodged each and every one of them effortlessly by spreading his tampered POD across the battlefield and in turn sensing everything that happened within this distance.

'Even if I couldn't use this as Infinity,' Azaroth thought as he slammed his fist into another Golem, shattering it upon impact, 'It's uses are as cool as they come, I think I have my own Observation Haki,'

The Golems within his sensing range were about 16 and he had already destroyed 9.

"I won't clear this dungeon by playing around," Azaroth said and golden sparks of lightning covered his body before shooting off toward the remaining Golems, destroying them upon impact.

In this moment, Azaroth looked different. The bolts of truth highlighted his soul, his body was glowing and golden sparks of lightning revolving around his entire being.

The dungeon refused to light up, there was no light existing within the dungeon and it surprised him a little.

"Was this meant to test my limits or something like that?" Azaroth muttered.

He could surely use his 'Demonic Haki' which was the new name he endowed upon the POD without destruction to observe anything within his range but against the Boss- it would make the battle tilted a bit in the Boss's favor.

"I didn't come here to fight on my terms," Azaroth quickly said, "I came here to fight the Boss on it's terms, after all, the Dungeon is it's domain and I'm an intruder,"

As Azaroth kept walking, he expanded his Demonic Haki into his surroundings, he could only maintain it in a radius of 4 meters as the amount of POD he could convert into Demonic Haki was minuscule.

He kept his eyes closed as they would do him no good here and focused on reading his Haki, at once the surrounding became perceivable- Azaroth could easily perceive everything within his sensing range and he could feel it...

"A monster!" He exclaimed in alarm as he pushed off the ground, narrowly avoiding a slashing attack from a Bloodhound.

Despite the fact he could sense everything within the range of his Haki, he was still slow in reacting because of the fact he was not too skilled with trusting his instincts. As Azaroth landed on the ground, The Bloodhound moved once again and aimed to bite his arm but Azaroth quickly ducked and dodged the attack.

Golden sparks of lightning surrounded his right hand as he pushed it into the chest of the Bloodhound, it's sleek black figure vibrating with golden bolts as it burst into pieces of meat and blood stained the ground.

"Bolts of Truth is a serious overpowered spell," Rem said, not only did the bolts of truth defy the laws of magic itself, if used properly by someone that had a great amount of willpower, that was a different thing entirely.

Azaroth's eyes were still forced shut but his Demonic Haki permeated the air, each moment he tried to harness more Demonic Haki by converting his POD, his control ever the force increased.

More Bloodhounds were closing the distance and Azaroth picked it up with his Demonic Haki, Azaroth smirked as the wolves came closer but he was faster, he was getting acquainted to using Demonic Haki as his eyes.

The Bloodhounds moved closer and blue bolts of lightning surrounded Azaroth's right palm.

"Thunderbolt!" Azaroth cried out, calling out the basic Lightning spell.

The spell dealt tremendous damage in the hands of Azaroth as they collided with their targets, but the beginner Lightning spell with how much control Azaroth had over it wasn't enough to kill Bloodhounds.

Azaroth followed up with a Bolt of Truth that destroyed the wolves, turning them into chunks of meat.

[You have Leveled up!]
