My Demon Hunting System

43  Time to get serious, Warriors

Ary and Kashi were glaring at the Demon Knight with angry gazes.

Mike, on the other hand, was slightly concerned.

The Red scarf demon was looking at Kashi and Ary with a sinister smile while folding his arms.

He knew what he had to do.

But without any seconds to waste, Ary made a fist of his right hand, saying,

"Almita retrieve my blade."

SWISH!

With a swish, Ary's cutter blade of death appeared on his right hand, and his astral dress appeared as well.

"Equipment."

Kashi said while swinging his right hand and his black astral dress with his blade appeared.

"Gear back."

Mike said as his astral dress and his scythe appeared.

After seeing them alerted, the red-scarf demon outstretched his arms, saying,

"As expected of the warriors, always be on alert."

"Cut the crap and what do you want here?"

With a grave expression, Kashi asked while pointing his blade at the red-scarf demon.

"What do I want, eh?"

The red scarf demon said as he smirked, adding,

"Aren't you the killer of our demon members Shikalah and Leon?"

"....?!"

Ary and Kashi got alerted after hearing this.

While Mike, on the contrary, pondered,

'Is that demon some kind of detective or what?'

"Yes, so? You're here for revenge?"

Ary asked while tightly holding his blade.

After hearing Ary's testimony, the red scarf demon snickered, saying,

"No no, don't get me wrong, kid. I'm just here because your highness told me to search for the killer of Shikalah and Leon. I have no interest in revenge or anything."

Nonetheless, after hearing "your highness," Ary's eyes got narrowed in anger. He asked,

"Your highness...Are you talking about the Demon King?"

"Yes,"

The red scarf demon replied, but he didn't know that he had awakened the wrath within Ary.

SWISH!

At a quick speed, Ary flashed at the red scarf Demon and launched a slice attack, saying,

"You demons are all the same!!"

15:00

"You demons are all the same!!"

SLASH!

"Ngh!!"

The red-scarf demon dodged Ary's attack. However, his shoulder got scraped by Ary's blade.

From the scratch, the blue-colored blood started flowing down on his fair skin.

"Heh!"

A smile that represented his resentment was shaped on his face, as he commented,

"Hey, kid."

Unexpectedly, two blades appeared in his hands, with a chain attached to the end of both blades.

By grabbing the blades tightly, he ranted,

"Did you think that I'm a very calm type of person?"

Then, he turned his blades a little backward, saying,

"If you think so, then let me tell you that I'm not!"

Then, like thunder, he swung his blades at Ary, and Ary swung his blade as well.

In the blink of an eye, both clashed, and the sound of metal roamed through the area, with sparks coming out of their blades since they were thrusting each other backward.

"Hiyaaaa!!"

From behind Ary, Kashi jumped at the demon to attack.

"Heh!"

With a smirk, the red scarf demon drifted himself backward and swirled his blades toward Ary and Kashi.

"Grr!"

"Tsk!"

They both defended themselves with their blades. However,

"Shockwave."

The red scarf demon commanded and the shockwave emitted from his blades and hit Kashi and Ary.

"Wha?!"

They both reacted but failed to dodge the shockwave and got hit by them and flew backward.

"Bro!! Senior!!"

Mike, who was standing on the ground, yelled.

"Wanna join them?"

A voice was heard from behind.

"Wha?!"

Mike reacted as he jumped forward, but a blade scraped his right leg and an enormous amount of blood started flowing out of it.

"Grrr!!"

Mike gritted his teeth in anger while glaring at the red scarf demon.

The red scarf demon was looking at Mike as if he was abasing Mike.

"What's your name, kid?"

He asked with a snicker.

While tightening the grip of his scythe, Mike replied,

"It's Mike Shanahan."

His voice reflected his anger.

While the red scarf demon was continuously smiling at Mike's face.

Actually, Mike's face was swollen due to the beating he received from Emily, and his face looked so funny because of it.

"I see."

The red scarf demon said as he stood while forwarding his right blade and backing his left blade, saying,

"And I'm...Demon Knight Ginetano."

SWISH!

At a swift speed, he flashed at Mike.

Because of that, Mike started whirling his scythe to prevent the Ginetano from coming closer to him. But it had no effect at Ginetano. He arrived above Mike and swung his blade.

However,

Clash!

Someone appeared in front of Mike and defended him with his blade.

"You?"

Ginetano called out as he saw that person.

The person was none other than Ary.

The left side of his face was covered in blood, while his right hand was covered in blood.

Even though, he defended Mike.

He was glaring at Ginetano with a drastic look.

Ginetano snickered and jumped backward, asking,

"Hey, kid. Tell me something. Are you Ary Inochi?"

While twirling his blade and holding tight to its handle, Ary glared at Ginetano and replied,

"Yes, I'm Ary Inochi."

Then, without a second to waste, he flashed at Ginetano and swung his blade, yelling,

"Dark Scar of Death!!!!"

A deadly black shockwave emitted from Ary's blade and darted at Ginetano.

While smirking, Ginetano swirled his blade, saying,

"Dark Reflector!!"

And a dark light shone from his blades, and the shockwave reflected on Ary.

Ary swung his blade again, and the shockwave vanished. Since it was his own attack, he can neglect it as well.

"Water Cannon—5th Aspect!!"

From the sky, Kashi whirled his blade and an enormous amount of water ring with four sharp edges flickered at Ginetano.

"Hmm?"

He reacted as he raised his head to look up at the sky, but before he could even react any further,

BOOOOOOOOM!!

The water rings chop down on him with an explosive noise, creating wet dust and haze in the air.

Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!

After launching that attack, Kashi started gasping.

His forehead and his arms were covered in blood. There was blood on his right thigh as well.

"Did we... win?"

Mike, who was standing behind Ary, asked.

Ary didn't respond but tightened his blade since he realised that it wasn't over yet.

"Wonderful!"

Suddenly, Ginetano's voice was heard inside from the haze, saying,

"You're truly wonderful, Warriors."

Soon, the haze disappeared and he was seen.

His body was painfully injured, yet he was smiling.

Mike was left perplexed after seeing him smile in this weak situation.

Soon enough, his wounds vanished and his body became like new.

"What?!"

Mike reacted in shock after glimpsing this.

"Grr!!!"

Ary and Kashi gritted their teeth in anger after glimpsing this.

Ginetano gave them an evil smile, saying,

"Well, I think...playtime is over."

Swoosh!!

Suddenly, dark energy surrounded Ginetano. His face shaped a serious expression. He commented,

"Time to be serious."
