Facing The Demon 5

"I recall mages who can use Light and Darkness like this. If I'm correct, this magic is the fabled Light All Slayer Magic, which is called the Primary Slayer magic." Said Theon and this piqued Naruto's interest.

He didn't know much about his Light All Slayer magic except what the book he was given told about it.

"Oh, am I correct in my assumption of your magic?" Asked Theon as he saw Naruto stop his efforts to escape after hearing the name of his magic.

"Interested to hear its history?" Asked Theon with a smile and Naruto nodded eagerly.

"I can share, I suppose. So the last heard about this magic was before I went into hibernation and the users were revered to be the most powerful people alive.

I didn't know much about what happened to them and how their magic got to you. But they were the strongest of their generation which, even I didn't dare to defy.

So if I master this magic, I'll be the strongest as well and kill him or you can just join me and we can kill him," offered Theon to a surprised Naruto.

"Didn't expect my offer?" He asked and Naruto nodded.

"I know magics like this doesn't take the change in holder lightly and I knew you were stalling for time for the magic to react." Said Theon with a smile and Naruto was surprised, to say the least.

"What do you take me for, a child? I have been alive since the era of One Magic, boy. I have a higher perception of magic than other creatures, even compared to my kind."

"That may be true. But if you knew the Light All Slayer magic is going to reject you, then why are you still keeping this futile effort," said Naruto, speaking for the first time since Theon's monologue started.

"That's simple, I want to fight you at your best and though you are a Dragon God Slayer, I understand you don't want to use that magic as it attracts the attention of so many unwanted people." Said Theon with a superior smirk proving again that he is superior to all the enemies Naruto fought till now.

As the Demon had so much experience fighting, he knew so many things Naruto hadn't known. He is in a whole different league when compared to all the enemies Naruto fought till now.

"So when is it going to be?" Asked Theon about the magic surge that will take place giving Naruto his Light Slayer magic.

"Now," said Naruto, the golden chains that were restricting him started to sink into his skin, not damaging even a bit. If closely observed, one can even find a lack of burnt marks of light chains in his skin as they are very hot generally.

"Then why did you restrain me if you want to fight me at full strength?" Asked Naruto. He can see why, but he is just testing how much the Demon was willing to share.

"That would be saying, wouldn't it?" Said Theon, losing all the control he has on Light Slayer magic, but staying in his bulk form.

"Let's get started, I think I don't have much time," said Naruto.

"Benihime," called Naruto and his Red Princess came into his hand in a cloud of smoke. Theon tapped his trident and they both charged at each other.

Naruto cancelled his Susanoo as he had his Light Slayer magic started to consume his magic when the chains attached to him and though he had a lot of reserves, he doesn't want to waste any of it as he knew the fight between him and Theon will be one to remember and he needs every bit of advantage he had.

Sword and Trident clashed, whipping out the magic in all directions as both weapons are imbued with magic. Naruto's light and Theon's black ink.

They slashed, parried, cut and pierced and tried every move in a weapons battle but both parties didn't get damaged and injured and came to a standstill.

"That's good sword mastery. So you can make use of your light on weapons as well," said Theon as he saw Naruto make another light sword in addition to the sword in his right hand.

"Making small talk to distract me?" Asked Naruto as he can perfectly see all of Theon's movements because of his active Sharingan.

The ancient demon has proved to be a worthy opponent as he still fighting to stand still with him even though he is using multiple light swords, spears and other weapons to get an edge.

The most fascinating aspect of the demon is his skin. It seems because of the merger with his servants, his skin thickened to the point that his light magic is unable to pierce it.

At least his golden light can't. He only had one option to bypass this and if what Theon said is true, he won't be surprised by this.

"Switch: Gold to Red," said Naruto. As his switching ability allows him to change the colour of his light and change the potency and nature of it to that colour.

But the most advantageous to Naruto is his sword. Benihime being a sword of red only allows his red light to increase its sharpness even further.

"Switching again? I must admit, it was an unforeseen ability on my part when I disguised myself as Joseph and Dan and was surprised by the move. Not anymore," said Theon as he prepared a thread.

"Red Blaze," said Naruto as he stared at Theon with Benihime in hand. It released a blazing red fire towards Theon who released the thread in his hand.

The thread shot like a bullet and was sore towards the approaching flame. Though it was in flame form, the light in the attack was so potent but the thread managed to break through it, burning at the end.

"It seems they are a perfect match. Hmm, I wonder," said Theon and got a wicked smile.

"Yes. This will serve as a test for you. If you win, you will join me. If you lose, I'll kill you." said Theon in an arrogant tone. Naruto didn't give in to his urge to kick the demon on the head.
