Despicable creature

Since Sprites capable subordinates have appeared, it also indicates that we are extremely close to the Sealing Ground.

Naruto nimbly jumped through the forest.

On his back, Shion did not feel any fear or nervousness, only peace of mind.

"Hey, Naruto, no, Shinigami." She opened her mouth, her voice clear and melodious.

"There is no one else here anyway. Just call me by my real name," Naruto replied with a smile.

"Yes. Naruto, do you think we can defeat Sprites?" Shion asked.

"Of course, you can. Didn't you train hard just to defeat Sprites? You didn't use your life to seal him. My dream still needs your help. You can't die here." Naruto said with a relaxed smile.

"Do I mean a lot to you? I mean... can I be of help to you?" Shion stuttered, her face turning slightly red as she explained with a hint of panic.

"Of course. You are unique." Naruto nodded, his voice full of magnetism.

"The power you possess is the love passed down from your mother. You have to face it head-on, not fear. You will discover that you can easily control it."

Hearing Naruto's words, Shion fell into deep thought.

Since birth, Shion's mother, Maitreya, had always told her that she possessed a hidden and powerful force within her body. However, Shion was unable to control it, and there was even a possibility of it going berserk.

The outstanding prophecy could quickly prove the success rate of 100%.

This made the people around him tremble in fear, afraid that one day Shion would predict his death.

Everyone was afraid of Shion.

Although they respected Shion, they were also far away from her.

Shion's childhood was lonely and also fearful of her own strength.

Feeling the slow flow of Reiatsu in her body, Shion clenched her fists and told herself, "I am no longer the Shion of the past. I am not alone."

In the sealed land, numerous followers knelt on the ground, their bodies resting on soft yellow soil. The air resonated with eerie whispers and chants.

"Our faith, Lord Sprites."

"Great Lord Sprites, you are everywhere, omnipotent god~"

"Slice opens the chest, the red organs pulsating vigorously, the blood vessels grim and powerful. With our most loyal blood, we welcome the arrival of the Great Sprites!"

A cold wind blew in the spacious sealed land, bringing with it the hole in the wall and howling.

The rolling lava at the bottom of the ground was boiling, brewing uneasiness.

The temperature of the canyon where the seal was located began to rise. Many believers were already sweating.

However, they still prayed fervently.

"Lord Sprites, our god killed priestess and brought the darkness to this world."

And at the very edge of the cliff, possessed by the Wraith, Hades grinned ferociously.

Under the baking of the surging lava, the soil under their feet seemed to have become soft.

The burning sensation rushed from his feet to his head.

Hades's entire body had turned red.

"Priestess! Today, I will devour you." With every step he took, a portion of Hades' body would collapse.

Green veins burst out, and the festering flesh and blood fell off, revealing the turbid black flesh.

The devout worshipers who were kneeling in reverence also grew pale as Hades underwent his transformation.

The blood seeped into the soil beneath them, turning into bits of nutrients that were transported to Hades.

"Our god! Our faith, please use my flesh and blood to forge the power to kill priestess." They shouted with all their might and held their heads high, blood gushing out of their mouths, but their faces were laughing wildly.

"Slap." Suddenly, crisp footsteps appeared in this open area.

"Pata Pata." The footsteps were leisurely, relaxed, and unhurried.

It was as if he was completely unaffected by the temperature.

Soon, a bloated figure appeared in everyone's sight.

The figure appeared.

Only then did he realize.

It was a man carrying a woman on his back.

"Priestess Shion!" Hades, who was originally transforming, paused and let out a furious laugh.

"Priestess is here! Lord Sprites will take care of everything! Our faith, please accept everything we have!" The believer's momentum rose again, and he suddenly raised his hands and shouted.

"Sprites!" The hands holding Naruto's neck suddenly tightened, and a girl's angry shout sounded.

"I'm here to settle the grudge between us!"

"Pa!" Shion jumped down from Naruto's back. Her delicate feet were immediately burned by the hot soil, and she bounced back to Naruto's back in pain.

Her little face instantly turned to red, but her mouth did not let her off.

"Hmph, you're dead for sure today!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Hades immediately let out an ear-piercing and savage laugh.

"It's the priestess. This is the old grudge of our generation?"

"This time, I will definitely eat you. No matter who helps you."

When he finished speaking, he completely absorbed the blood of the believer, and his body spasmed.

His body opened up, revealing a ferocious face and mouth.

He let out a loud wail.

He did not put Naruto in his eyes at all.

To be exact, other than priestess, he would not be afraid of anyone.

And this priestess did not look like the previous priestess.

She could not even stand on her own.

It was easy to imagine.

This time, he would completely absorb priestess, becoming the most terrifying existence in the Pure Land, conquering the continent!

"Wow, what a terrifying monster." Shion was so scared that her little face shrank back behind Naruto.

"Oh? This is Sprites!" Naruto looked at the mountain-like Sprites with great interest. He placed Shion on a rock with a low temperature and took a step forward.

"This is." Shion widened his eyes and looked at Naruto's shoulder that was not wide. This scene was similar to his own prediction.

"Boom!" In the next moment, the extremely terrifying pressure was completely different. However, the entire area seemed to have stopped for a moment.

"You, who are you!" Along with the sharp cry of extreme fear, the black tubes that were transporting nutrients around Sprites' body suddenly broke, and black fresh blood flowed all over his body. He was in a very sorry state.

The mouth at his waist was wide open, as if he wanted to scream.

However, it was as if his throat was being choked, and he could not make a sound.

His originally arrogant eyes were now filled with fear.

Impossible.

Just a mere human.

He is just a mere human!

Why does it make me feel fear of death?

And this pressure.

This was actually!

The pressure from a superior!!

"You, who the hell are you"

He opened his eyes wide, and black liquid flowed out of his eyes as he roared at the top of his lungs.

The lava below the cliff was boiling with his tone. It kept exploding, turning into bubbles and then shattering.

The air was filled with the smell of burnt oil.

"Pata." Naruto took a step forward and looked at the unbearable Sprites with ridicule.

"You are just a despicable creature."

In the next moment, he put his hand on his mask, and the thick white fog lingered.

The negative emotions that were hundreds, thousands of times stronger than Sprites gushed out like they found a vent.

Sprites took a step back and could not help but shiver.

In his eyes, Naruto had turned into a devil that could devour everything.

"It's a devil! He's a devil!"
