The Battle Finished

[ MP: 13 (+20) ]

Rainn could only rely on his MP now. The sword was too far to reach and now there were three enemies ready to charge. Rainn immediately thought that spending his skill points now was a wise move.

"GRAAAHHH!!!"

The three Incomplete Demons dashed toward him simultaneously.

[ Skill activated: Ultimate Instinct (Lv.3) ]

Rainn managed to dodge the three of them and ran towards his sword. Then a volley of arrows from Vyra came at just the right moment to distract them.

[ Skill Upgraded: Ultimate Instinct (Lv.4). ]

[ Upgraded Skill: Pyrokinesis (Lv.4). ]

Rainn could now see his enemy's movements clearly. But still, his poor physical condition made him have to receive a kick that threw him into the air.

Luckily Rainn landed right beside his sword.

[ HP: 8/10 ]

Rainn immediately grabbed his sword and parried the attacks that came in succession. When the three of them had gathered like this, this was the perfect time to use that skill.

[ Skill activated: Thunder Step. (Lv.4) ]

A thunderous roar resounded and struck the three Incomplete Demons with huge waves of lightning. The three of them gasped and it seemed that the attack could do quite a lot of damage to the three of them.

Rainn appeared ten meters from where he had been.

[ Skill upgraded: Pyrokinesis (Lv.4) ]

[ Skill activated: Pyrokinesis (Lv.4) ]

Rainn let out a torrent of fire at the three of them. The torrent of flames enveloped the bodies of the three Incomplete Demons along with the lingering effects of the lightning.

Then suddenly a gust of wind appeared from where Vyra was. The wind rushed into Rainn's torrent of flames and made them even bigger.

"GRAAAAAHHHH!!!"

"GRAAAAAHHHH!!!"

"GRAAAAAHHHH!!!"

There were screams from the three Incomplete Demons. Rainn smirked as it seemed that this attack could injure three of them.

The wind--which Rainn was sure was released by Vyra--was getting bigger and bigger to make a tornado. Mixed with the flames, the three Incomplete Demons were trapped within the fiery tornado that soared high into the night sky. Illuminate every corner of this originally dark forest.

Rainn stopped spitting out flames because now it seemed the attack was enough. Despite seeing that his three enemies had been devoured by the huge fiery tornado, Rainn still wasn't sure that the attack would kill them. After all, the screams from within the fire tornado were still heard.

"HOLD YOUR WIND!" Rainn shouted to Vyra who was hiding in the forest. He didn't know for sure where exactly Vyra was but he was sure that Vyra must have heard it.

Rainn also thought that he had to find a way to kill the three creatures before Vyra ran out of magic power. Rainn only has one idea at the moment. That is a direct stab to the heart.

[ Skill upgraded: Pyrokinesis (Lv.5) ]

Now the [Pyrokinesis] skill had become the highest leveled skill in his arsenal. Rainn plunged his sword into the ground.

[ Skill activated: Pyrokinesis (Lv.5 ]

On one hand, Rainn had created a condensed fire shaped like a spear. With [Ultimate Instinct] still active earlier, Rainn could see the forms of the three Incomplete Demons.

[ Skill upgraded: Angel's accuracy (Lv.4) ]

[ Skill upgraded: Angel's accuracy (Lv.5) ]

[ Skill activated: Angel's accuracy (Lv.5) ]

As before, time seemed to slow down. Rainn could see the three Incomplete Demons moving wildly within the fiery tornado. With the level raised, Rainn could now focus on a specific body part of his target to aim at. Rainn aimed at the heart of one of them.

'Swish!'

The flame spear of condensed fire shot through the wall of the fiery tornado and stabbed into the heart of one of the three Incomplete Demons. The screams got louder and louder until they faded and disappeared.

[ Skill activated: Pyrokinesis (Lv.5 ]

Rainn created another spear of condensed fire and was about to throw it at the second Incomplete Demons. But suddenly that wall of flames disappeared in an instant as if erased from existence with a flick of a finger.

Rainn's eyes widened at the extinguished fire. The two Incomplete Demons charged toward Rainn despite their entire body being nearly charred to nothing but bones. But the shape of the horn is still visible above their heads.

Rainn could still see them in slow motion due to the effect of the skill. So Rainn didn't waste his chance and immediately threw his fire spear.

The fire spear stabbed into the chest of one of the two Incomplete Demons charging toward him and it fell to the ground. While their friend kept running toward Rainn without caring about anything.

"Shit!" Rainn spat. Those Incomplete Demons were extremely fast and their form was so terrifying that Rainn froze in fright. Rainn's body was hit and flew backward.

[ HP: 7/10 ]

Somehow the creature's strength also increased.

Before Rainn could land on the ground, the Incomplete Demon grabbed him by the legs and slammed Rainn repeatedly on the ground.

[ HP: 6/10 ]

[ HP: 5/10 ]

[ HP: 4/10 ]

Then as if satisfied playing with their toy, the Incomplete Demon threw Rainn until he hit a tree at the edge of the forest.

"Bleghh..."

Blood came out of his mouth. He also realise that his consciousness was getting blurry. His HP is only at four points. Rainn felt some of his ribs and leg bones that the Incomplete Demon gripped on crack. It might even break. Rainn felt a little hopeless.

Only a little.

Lighting arrows came repeatedly towards the Incomplete Demon. But the arrows seemed to have completely lost their accuracy as they only landed around the supernatural creature. Vyra's attacks were just enough to distract the creature.

Even so, Rainn was grateful. Because Vyra had given him enough time. He struggled to get up.

[ Skill activated: Pyrokinesis (Lv.5) ]

[ Skill activated: Angel's accuracy (Lv.5) ]

Rainn aimed with the fire spear in hand. The Incomplete Demons' movements were wild and dodged the arrows that were shooting at them.

'Swish!'

The fire spear shot like a comet in the middle of the night. Containing the firepower of Rainn's remaining MP.

It pierced the Incomplete Demon's heart. They let out a painful shriek before finally collapsing to the ground along with its screams which also disappeared.

Rainn collapsed on the ground too.

[ MP: 3 ]

Now it seems the MP is not enough to use [Hope Beacon] to increase his HP.

Rainn was just resigned and hoped that he would not die now. His eyes slowly closed.

It opened again when he heard the sound of footsteps approaching. And closed again.

Rainn remembered seeing Vyra, Amia, and Nicois' faces. But then his consciousness disappeared completely.
