The Mid-Demon felt her body ache as she regained balance.

The person who hit her was now dashing at her, ready to inflict another strike on her.

"Tch!" She clicked her tongue, realizing the mistake she made.

As a Mage, the Demon was not meant to lunge a frontal assault at her opponent. However, thanks to her flustered state, as well as the strange man letting go of his weapon, she gave in to her instincts and struck.

As a result, he got the first hit.

'He human. Why he strong?!' The Mid-Demon asked herself.

It was common sense that no human could be as strong as a Demon of her caliber. That was why she had been looking forward to the kind of 'powerful' foe she would decimate.

She wasn't expecting an equal!

>WHOOOOOSSSSHHHH<

The human approached her in a blur, too fast for her to quickly defend against.

'Shit!' Even though she had never felt outmaneuvered before, the Mid-Demon felt overpowered by her opponent's speed.

>BOOOOMMM!!!<

His fist hit her arms, just as she tried to block, causing her to fly back once more.

'Damnit! If like this, then...' Using the momentum, she heightened her Miasma control and pushed herself further away from the enemy.

It was the most optimal course of action, after all.

After creating enough distance between her and the strange human—taking a strategic position behind her horde of Lower Class Demons.

"Go! Attack him!" She screamed, feeling sore from the few blows she had received from the brief exchange with her adversary.

Even though the Lower-Class Demons were most likely not going to last very long against the opponent, they could still prove their worth as Cannon fodder.

'They buy me time. Me use Magic. Me win!' The Mid-Demon thought to herself.

Unfortunately for her, though—

"....."

—Not a single Loser Class Demon heeded her words.

"W-wha—?!" Her eyes bulged in shock.

Their black skins trembled as their grotesque bodies were stationary. The terrified looks in their eyes told her all she needed to know.

'N-no way...!'

The Lower Class Demons feared the human more than her.

"It seems these dregs have more sense than I gave them credit for." The human's voice suddenly emerged, sending another wave of unease through the Mid-Demon.

She gulped, watching him approach slightly. Even though a horde of Demons separated her and the man, the Mid-Demon felt completely defenseless.

"Move. Now." A single command was enough to cause the group of Demons to part, giving the man access to her.

The Lower Class Demons, nothing but trembling beasts could do nothing against a higher power.

She was all alone at this point.

"Humiliating..." The Mid-Demon whispered.

Her body shook slightly as she felt anger well up within her.

"This is humiliating!!!"

As she roared, an explosive wave of Miasma burst all around her, sending rocks flying everywhere.

The area around the Mid-Demon blackened, and the influence of her demonic energy caused the atmosphere to turn sour.

"You..." Her growl was more ferocious now, and her hateful glare could be seen beyond the beautiful appearance she had.

A wild animal ready to strike... that was the only way to describe the Mid-Demon at this point.

'I use my Skills! I beat him!'

She had five core Skills. With those, there was no way she could lose to a mere human. Besides, unlike Magic, Skills hardly took any time to cast.

They had duration and cooldown periods, but they were convenient for moments like this.

Stretching her hands at the man while watching him approach, she decided to use one of her favorites.

"[Evil Eye]!"

Her eyes shone crimson, and a wave of demonic energy left her body to invade the man.

'Hehehe! Now fall into madness and despair!'

>BZZZZTTZZZ!<

A buzzing aftershock suddenly assailed the Mid-Demon, causing her to yelp in pain as she clutched her eye in pain.

"A-argh... h-how...?!"

The buzzing only worked like that if her attack failed, and she saw no reason why it would. As the man approached her, a smile formed on his face, causing her to shudder further.

'He resist it?!'

Realizing there was no time to think about why an attack failed to work, she decided to use another Skill.

"[Predator]!"

Once more, her Skill refused to activate, causing the Mid-Demon another round of confusion.

Still, she could not afford to waste any time, so the only option was to try something else.

The one on her mind took a lot of Miasma and required an intense amount of concentration to use, but the Mid-Demon had run out of options at this point.

"[Marionette]!"

Strings appeared from nowhere and tried connecting to her opponent. She was certain that her Skill would work this time.

However—!!!

'Canceled again?!!!'

By the time the Demon exhausted all attempts to use her five Skills, the human was already right in front of her.

Sweat fell from her worried face as she felt a presence unlike any other.

Truly, she was cornered.

But...

"You fool!" A victorious smile spread on her face as a Magic Circle suddenly appeared underneath the human.

It glowed brightly, and an explosion was imminent.

She relished the fact that the human's arrogance would lead to his downfall as he fell for her trap.

Although, the Mid-Demon found it strange that the man didn't have a surprised expression, neither was he oozing with despair, she chalked it down to her imagination.

>BOOOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!<

Like fireworks, the explosion painted the area in its magnificent glow, sending ripples of destruction flying around.

The Mid-Demon watched as her adversary was devastated—no doubt—by her offensive prowess.

"Hehehe, you foo—"

Suddenly, right before she could complete her sentence, a hand emerged from the blazing flames and grabbed her throat.

"Heuukk!" A strained screech leaked out as her bulging eyes witnessed the impossible.

'N-no!'

It couldn't be real... the sight before her was not possible.

"Haa... is this all you can do?" The voice first appeared, then the owner emerged from the inferno.

He was a completely different being from before—an existence that transcended humanity.

'... This isn't... human!'
