Hell Spawn

With the taste of sulfur in my mouth, I arose, staring dead into Yura's amethyst gaze. With astonishment, she eyed me like a miracle had occurred, "What?" I growled.

She knew something, and there was a coldness within me that wasn't present before. A whisper gently calling me. Nevertheless, my question was never answered as a terrifying tremor flooded the forest. Bringing earth and debris over us forcing Yura and me to cover our bodies with qi, simultaneously a deprave howl echoed, shaking the air around us.

"NORA!!" Yura bark in a panic, dashing towards the tremor with haste.

Blending into the darkness, I shot forward, shadowing Yura's movement, not allowing anything to attack her or me as we arrived at a massive crater. Tremendous clashes flickered as a girl covered in qi and blood flashed around the battlefield.

Enraged, Yura's aura twisted as amethyst light flickered from her body, arriving before the demon seemingly instantly. Her longsword already in hand as she cleaved down, yet a clank sounded as her blade landed on the exoskeleton of the demon.

Not surprised in the least, Yura qi began to rise, becoming sharp as her very blade flickered, breaking through the sound barrier with each stroke. Globs of thick, slimy black blood littered the gravel as the beast roared.

Unfortunately for the deprave beast, I appeared right next to Yura, showering both of us in complete darkness, allowing us to ignore most of the damage of this monster's sound attack. "Don't let the blood touch you!" I roared as Dragonsbane, covered in black flames, shot forward.

"NORA!!" Yura hollered as Nora came crashing down like a meteor blasting the demon down into the gravel. Shockwaves radiated out with ruthless ferocity as Nora wailed her blade down in quick succession. Suddenly her longsword warped, clanking into an ax as she bellowed, "Lunar Smash," she wailed slamming down her glimmering ax as a wave of destruction shook the very heavens.

WIth my darkness defending against the insane power that Nora was throwing at the beast, I shot high into the air, compressing a massive ball of flames, "MOVE!" I shouted in haste

Shooting away, a small marble shot down as a raging inferno shot high up into the atmosphere parting the dark clouds that hung over this god-forsaken realm. Wails of torment radiated out as the deformed demon clawed it's way out, sending a massive beam of crimson qi towards me. The hairs on my skin rose before turning to dust as death approached.

Stepping in the atmosphere, I promptly dodged by the skin of my teeth as my entire left arm warped into a smoldering mess of charcoal as the demon cried out, sending multiple beams of carnage throughout the forest, flooding the entire battleground in death.

Appearing right below the demon, Yura had an extremely cold grimace as her blade pulsed with an insane type of energy I had never felt before. Like razor-sharp knives stabbing into my eyes, she gracefully danced around the monster, her blade severing the entire demon into multiple pieces letting a mist of fine blood litter the ground.

"Turn it to ash, Arsene," She exploded, her appearance pale as the moon.

Not needing to be told twice, I appeared near the beast, throwing Yura far away as a massive blast of demonic flames burst from every inch of my body. A whimper could be heard as the regenerating demon slowly turned to ash. Not giving up, I didn't stop before the very ash turned to nothingness. With perspiration covering every crevice of my body, I swallowed a recovery pill, turning my attention to the pale goddess.

"What the hell was that thing, "Nora shouted, appearing next to Yura.

Heavily panting, Yura bit her lips, "Hell Spawn, we need to leave," She exclaimed, dashing off into the distance.

Finding a small place to rest after a few hours, I quickly began cultivating as Qi filled my weary form. My arm was quickly healing as it seemed this entire environment was meant for cultivators like me. Feeling the Demonic Qi in the air, the Demonic SacrilegeMantra worked in overtime, sucking in qi at an inhuman rate.

Even so, something was terribly wrong as I absorbed more demonic qi. With each breath I grasped, my senses began to grow sharper and deadlier. I could sense a great change was accruing the longer I remained within this realm...Yet, I didn't feel right...It didn't feel warm, rather cold!

Pushing my eyes open, I studied the marking that littered my skin. So complex I could feel my very soul pulse in agony as I stared. Giving off an ancient aura, the odd marking began to twist as my left eye began to sting.

Clenching my eye, I cried out in anguish as I could sense a symbol present in my pupils. I could not physically see, it yet I could perceive it...It was me...it was my emblem! Confused, I turned to Nora, who had a worried expression as she peered over my sweaty body. "Are you ok, " She asked as if she didn't try to kill me just yesterday.

"I don't know, "I responded, my eye still throbbing, "But it's fine for now, I guess."

Smirking, Nora giggled, staring deep into my left eye, "I want one, but what is that." She asked, her fingers reaching to touch it.

Slapping her hands away, an angry pout surfaced as she stuck her tongue out. "Dummy,"

"I agree," Yura lightly chimed in, she too peering into my eye, "what are you now? Demon, Devil, Human?"

I wonder if I have Sharingan...Focus, "We can worry about me later. We need to find a way out of here,"

With a depressive look, Nora shook her head, "There isn't one. We have to wait an entire month before we are teleported out. Uncle had told me that how most realms like this work."

"Do you know who discovered this realm?" I urged. "...was it Selma?"

Nodding in confusion, "Yes, it was Grandmaster Selma. Does that matter?" She replied.

Selma, you old goat fucking prick, just wait till I leave this damn place. "No," I muttered, stepping out the dark cave we were sheltering in. The scent of decay filled my nostril as I could vaguely see a castle far in the distance.

Feeling the Mark of Sacirlege acting up, I noticed Yura skillfully standing next to me, "There is a high chance we will die if we go," She cautioned, crossing her arms.

"oh? So why is there a curious gleam in those enchanting eyes," I probed, " Don't you want to go just as bad as I do?"

With a slight flush, she nodded, "M...maybe,"

Staring at me, a cunning grin appeared on her Irresistible lips as she walked away, causing me to wonder. Running my hands through my hair, I laughed at my foolish thoughts.

"Shall we go?"
