BAM—!
The noble demon took a punch to the face from Raye!
Though—
-... Huh...?
He barely felt it.
It was so weak it might as well have been a breeze.
Raye's body was wrecked.
He was so exhausted that he couldn't even muster a fraction of his real strength.
"Keuk... shit..."
Raye gritted his teeth, frustration boiling inside him.
The demon didn't even flinch.
And at that moment—
BAM!
"GAHHK—!!"
A vicious kick.
Right to his stomach!
FWOOSH—!
Raye's body launched backward!
BOOM—!
He crashed onto the ground—
THUD!
He bounced once before falling flat on his back.
"Urgh..."
A pained groan escaped him.
His lungs burned.
His stomach churned.
But still—
Raye tried to get up.
"...grrgg...!"
His fingers dug into the ground, pushing himself up.
And seeing that—
-Pfft...
The noble demon grinned with a soft laugh.
-I guess you're really done now.
His eyes turned crescent, a malicious gleam in them.
-Too bad. You look like a really interesting toy...
