I'm back. Haru's greatest Enemy Arrives.

The man could be seen walking towards them but he stops about halfway from them.

"To see such an amazing hero like yourself is still alive and breathing is a miracle." The Demon says with a bit of joy in his voice.

"Nakasone Satoru. Or the demon lords left hand, I killed you." Haru responds while he grips the handle of his sword.

Letting out a laugh before starting to speak once again, he was smiling. (Not that it was visible through his helmet.)

"Yes I died. It took quite some time for them to find a way to bring me back but this time I won't lose to a pathetic bug like you." Satoru says while drawing his sword.

A sword glistening with bright orange flames was all Haru could see him holding but it didn't mean anything to him.

"Just stay back Mai. I'll handle this." Haru tells Mai as he draws he sword as well.

It's blue aura began to shine as he gripped the sword in his hands, that legendary aura from back then was here once again. Alzel truly was quite the material to use for a sword.

Within seconds Satoru had appeared next to Haru and was already swinging his sword down towards him. Clang!!!! Blocking it just in time as a gust of wind goes every direction.

I remember fighting him like this a long time ago but I've surpassed the hero I used to be and can confidently say I'm stronger than before. It's time to show how much I've truly grown over the years.

SS class skill, Teleport. Immediately Haru begins to utilize his new SS class skill And appears all around the demon within seconds. He begins to bring his sword down each time he teleports around the demon and disappears each time it connects with him.

I don't think I'll need ever ounce of power to defeat him but I'll certainly make sure that he is in pieces by the end of this. I'm not going to give him even the slightest chance of coming back.

After awhile of this going on he realizes that Satoru has barely moved from the spot and is just standing there. The slashes from Haru were there but the demon wasn't phased whatsoever.

"That's definitely a newer move for you but I'll say that I've gotten stronger too you know. I'm not stupid, of course you'd get stronger." Satoru says as wings begin to form on his back.

Wings of an Angel formed from his back but instead of them being white, they were black and didn't resemble an angel in the slightest.

Crack. Crackle. Boom!!! A small explosion went off as he dashed towards Haru. The ground had broken into pieces where he was standing and gusts of wind went throughout the area.

Clash!!! Clang!!!! The sound of their swords connecting with one another echoed throughout the area but neither of them were moving.

The ground slowly began to break under Haru as he blocked the demons blade.

"You've gotten stronger but it won't change the outcome of this battle." Haru says while straining to move the sword forward.

He's not the only one who can give himself a bit of a boost but this is purely experimental for me since I haven't gotten to use it much. I was hoping to get more practice in before having to use it but here goes nothing.

SS class skill, Divine Transformation. (Allows the user to harness borrowed power from the goddess to enhance physical capabilities.)

A bright white light began to engulf Haru for a few moments before he could be seen once again. A white wing of an angel had formed from his back, his armor took on a bright white glow, and his hands holding his sword had new armor formed around them.

Gauntlets made from a goddesses power to enhance his strength even more, the wing to increase his speed, and the new armor effect to give him more durability.

Thump. Thump. I can hear my heartbeat like before when I met the demon lord but this time it didn't seem to be fear. Was this because of my new power?

I think it'll be best to use this temporarily since I don't know if there will be side effects from using it or not.

Haru begins to stand up as he starts to push the blade back towards Satoru. "Didn't expect me to have this kind power either I assume." Haru says with a smile on his face.

He didn't respond this time but instead started to clash back and forth with Haru, blades hitting against each other over and over again. Sending small shockwaves through the area into the forests, even reaching the entrance of the kingdom.

Clash!!! Swoosh!!! Smash!!! Hitting against each other's blades once more before dashing away and then back into each other once again. Satoru then tries smashing down and completely missed Haru.

I couldn't imagine what Mai must be thinking as I'm dealing with this asshole but I won't let him survive, nor will I let anyone else get hurt in the process.

"I think this makes the fight a lot more interesting than it was back then. Hahaha." Satoru says before letting out a laugh.

This bastard is having fun with this but it's not meant to be fun at all. I'll admit it's been awhile since I've had such a crazy fight but it's not for fun.

Haru could feel pain radiating in his arm as he looks down to realize blood is dripping from it. A large gash is across his arm and he even noticed another one across his chest.

But he takes notice that he isn't the only one with damage from the fight so far. All different slashes across Satoru's armor could be seen with blood dripping from each wound.

It seems we're both doing quite a lot of damage but I'm also starting to run out of time. I could feel the pain getting more intense and I know it's not just from his attacks.
