Chapter 156 - War King vs Red Demon

Red Demon blocked a thrust from the shield and kicked it, sending the king backwards. He spun around with his spear and hit Red Demon in the shoulder with the shaft. Red Demon went on the offensive with a slash hitting the shield blocking his next slash with the spear. The tip of the long weapon began to glow with hexagon-like patterns burning red on the blade. With each thrust of the weapon an invisible force was produced. Red Demon tried to block with both blades but was still pushed back. The impact felt like an unbelievable force. The War King spun the spear about and seemed to giggle to himself as he stared at Red Demon who was on one knee. He was glaring at the king, 'What enchantment is that? I feel the Bedlam element coming off it?' the king did a two step move bouncing to one foot and then the other. Then he sprinted forward spinning the spear in a windmill fashion and thrust the spear at Red Demon. He quickly jumped away and where he stood became a crater from the force of the spear. He then activated Bolt and moved the energy through his body as he increased his speed and reflexes. He attacked the king with ferocity. The king struggled to keep up and parry slashes coming at him. Havoc Flame then cut through the spear breaking the weapon. The king parried another blade with the shaft of the spear and then with the shield. He jumped back, throwing the shaft to the ground. A magic circle then disappeared from his arm like ash floating off his arms. This did not go unnoticed from Red Demon, 'The weapons are linked to his element. Okay!' he then shot forward and didn't give the king any time to regroup. 

The king used the shield as his weapon blocking each attack. The next weapon that appeared in his hands was a sickle with the same patterns. The blade burst into a fire of red flames and was spread out with each slash of the blade causing Red Demon to jump back. The fire gave off a smoke that lingered that started to grow and expand till bolts of red lightning came from its beams that attacked in all directions wildly. Red Demon was too busy to dodge the small electric storm. He sidestepped, flipped, and rolled dodging each bolt. One ended up grazing his side, burning it. He groaned in pain as he jumped back dodging another. The War King came behind him and slashed with the burning sickle. He changed up tactics instead of long range attacks he chose to be up close and personal with Red Demon. With the shorter weapon his attacks were faster and he produced another storm cloud. Red Demon then stomped on the ground creating a wall of spiked earth at king and storm. This threw him off as he used his shield to block a spike coming at his head. Red Demon was now above with wind swirling around him. A black slash broke through the air a the king creating a blade of shadow. 

The shield was up over his head but a faint line appeared on the surface of the shield as the impact dispersed. The cut sizzled on the bronze shield he slashed up with the sickle. Sending a streaking cloud off at the Red Demon. He punched his fist forward sending a cut of wind towards it cutting through pushing the king to his knees. Red Demon landed on the shield and kicked the side making the king fall to the ground. The shield was now to his side as he got up and was then slashed across the chest by Red Demon. The War King roared in pain as began to get angry. His chi's strength was rising as he was now coated in red energy. He slashed with the flaming sickle spinning it around his hand in circles with each strike overhand and underhand. The blade kept moving back and forth in hands till he could strike. The sickle was now underhand as he came up hooking the two blades that Red was using to block. Breaking their connection he then stabbed with the sickle. 

Red Demon bent backwards as the blade passed over his face. He parried it away and spun around getting away from the king. Moon Ray started to glow as he slashed a blade of light at the king. Spheres of chi began to form around the Red Demon forming into shuriken. They whizzed past him as they aimed at the War King; he used the shield and sickle to block the flying blades. He was barraged by these attacks and saw Red Demon forming spears instead of shuriken. 

They were harder to bat away with the sickle and cause him to trip up. Relying on his shield he planted his feet firm and took the blow. The spears shattered into red particles as they exploded into it. This pushed him back with great force as some exploded into fire. He slid back and stared at the spears more closely. He could see they were made of chaos chi. He then spun one down and kicked it to the ground impaling it. He batted the last spear away into particles and grabbed the spear with his shielded hand. He felt the energy flowing into his hands. "Well well interesting creation you have here" the spear then started to shrink and then exploded into particles that he absorbed. He took a deep breath and red mist flowed from the boar mask's nostrils. "Thanks for the recharge kiddo" he spun the sickle in hand and looked more invigorated. 'Damn…should've seen that coming' Red Demon thought. He then sheathed his swords and brought out the Mystic bow. 

He then shot a barrage of arrows at the king made of ice. The arrows exploded creating icicles upon the shield and sickle. This extinguished the flames upon the blade freezing up his arm. Red Demon was upon him driving a fist into his face and then his gut. He kneed him in the chest, sending him falling backwards. Red Demon then jumped upon him wrenching the shield from his arm and bringing it down upon the boar mask. Over and over finishing with a side swipe from the shield. He threw it down away from the king who was bleeding under the mask as it pooled under his head. 

The ice started to melt off his arm and flames ignited upon the blade he slashed up at Red Demon creating a streak of smoke. A bolt of energy shot Red Demon backwards causing him to roll back coming to a sliding stop. His chest was smoking from the attack. He lay still knocked out from the impact. The War King rose slowly gripping the sickle tight. "You've been a thorn in my side long enough!" He bellowed glaring at the still Red Demon.
