Chapter 42 - Ascended Dark Magic

The irregulars

Chapter 42

Deep within the forest at night, Gen stood beside Sylvara.

"Are you sure Gen? Unlike me who's unable to kill you, they might do you know? And I won't help you on this matter"

"Yeah Sylvara, summon them, your servants"

Sylvara focused in her spiritual technique, communicating to them using their spiritual contracts.

"Lady Sylvara!, she's here!" Xenore the stealthy female demon picked-up the signals.

she flew in an incredible speed with her demonic wings, within a few second's she arrived. 

"Lady Sylvara! i'm glad to see you, however " Xenore greeted her mistress.

"still the first to arrive on my calling Xenore, yeah i'm alive and currently bounded with this man"

"Then..."

suddenly a demon wielding a spear came from the sky, landing loud on the ground, it was Heimer.

"welcome back, lady Sylvara"

"yoh! Heimer"

"What were you doing lady Sylvara? erasing your presence for months" Heimer asked.

"hmmm a lot has happened, i got changes of plans, right now i made a blood pact with this man"

"May we know the reason?" Xenore asked.

"i may gain a lot of things including that necromancer girl, anyway for now don't kill this fool and his friends"

"fool?" Gen asked frowning.

"yeah, the fool who got in contract with a demon"

"well i suppose i am"

.

"what's the reason for the summon lady Sylvara?" Xenore asked.

"it's his wish" Sylvara pointed Gen.

"yup, there's something i like to ask for both of you"

"..." no one answered but only the sound of the beetle are heard.

"silent treatment ehhh, how harsh. anyway i like to fight you till my magical energy is drained, how about that? you get to punch me" Gen stated his wish with confidence.

"I agree, allow me to cut you into half" Xenore answered.

"i agree too, allow me to drill a hole on your body" Heimer followed.

"are you sure about this Gen? Heimer is an B Class demon ya know? you're power is currently almost on his level however the experience alone is a huge gap, let alone Xenore an A Class demon"

"yeah, i take whatever they do without anger"

Suddenly, a black lightning struck from the sky, aiming at Gen. however the lightning only obliterated the ground, since Gen was in the shadows. as he appeared above the ground, Poison mist were spread wide and mixed with the air.

"ughh can't breath. S-seriously, they're really trying to kill me"

Gen pulled out his mana blade from his dimensional pocket storage ability, infusing it with light attribute.

a flashing spear of with dark electricity came striking towards his chest, Gen blocked with his blade in time, however the impact took the toll in his arms as he got knocked away.

"weak, that Blue haired kid was much more stronger than you"

*cough cough*

"oh, you mean Rein?, well he's more like the body of us three after all".

Suddenly, Xenore came out from his shadow, Gen turned around however another Xenore came out from his shadow, aiming at his back, then ten's of Xenore came out at the same time.

"*demn, shadow clones, freaking cool!, i will copy it later kukuku*"

surrounded by clones, Gen had now moves but to instantly teleport himself using the stellar cloak.

"what?! he vanished?" Xenore asked in confusion, searching where Gen is.

then thorns appeared striking the clones, it was Gen "Dark thorns Spells propelled by his double casting ring"

However the clones were a lot more tougher, the spell Gen casted were sliced in half by the blades of the doubles.

"*sheesh she's still an A class demon after all, her clones are almost comparable to my current strength*" Gen ponders hidden from her sight.

then the ground tremors, the sky darkened, above the clouds was Hiemer.

"Thunder Demon blast!"

 a massive dark lightning came down from the dark sky, the whole ground was obliterated and turned to ashes.

"is that dude insane!?" said Gen taking a bit of electricity and damage.

thanks to the blast, Gen's cover had perished therefore Xenore took the opportunity and strikes with her dual blades in a flash. as the blade were about to behead him, he vanished instantly again.

"*tsk, one more instant teleportation left, then i can't dodge their fast attacks*"

"here goes nothing!" as his full power is not comparable to them, Gen forced himself to create a new magic spell primarily for movement instead of attacks.

the light gathers on his body, his eyes. nose, mouth bleeds, as his skin turned red, his whole body became lighter as feather.

"*t-this is a mini similar version of Lucian's Photon wings, thought it wont make me fly at high speed like his, it will at least it will make me fly enough... i will call this...*"

"Etherealization!" his body shined, he levitated mid air, as he leaned forward, he flew at great speed, shining like a falling star.

"s-stop! i don't know to fly yet!" he leaned a backward, then he flew backward at great speed.

"i-is the control of this where i lean? t-then" Gen leaned straight, as if standing in the air. his flight stopped midway leaving him floating midair.

"*phew*".

As he got relieved from the flight, Xenore appeared from his back within a flash, with her daggers ready to cut Gen to a hundred fold.

Gen blocked with his blade as he leans backwards in order to escape.

"T-that was almost ya know!" Said Gen.

"*20% left*"

Xenore and Heimer chased Gen on the sky, their flying speed were like of a bullet. Passing through clouds while dodging and blocking their attacks.

"5% left, ahhh my head freaking hurts, I'm losing strength~...."

Within a few seconds, Gen fell from the sky.

"He reached his limit" Said Xenore.

"This is his end" Heimer followed.

As they landed, they found Gen's body buried on the ground, bleeding.

"Is he truly worth your attention and contract lady Sylvara?" Xenore asked.

"Yeah, just wait for a bit because everything is just starting hehe" Sylvara grins at her servants confused face.

*Thump-thump, thump-thump.... WoooOOooommmm*

The two got startled.

"W-what? How come his mana got replenished?" Said Heimer.

"No... More like it changed... As if he has 2 mana source" Xenore reached a conclusion

"See, isn't he's interesting" said Sylvara.

"Heh he's just slightly a bit stronger, he still weak compared to me" Heimer hissed.

"Uhhhmmm ahhh damn this feels good" Gen stretched his arms "ouch! my body hurts"

And then a demonic energy pulsated in Gen's body and soul.

"My current mana is likely 150% than before, now multiply it by 5"

"DEMONIFICATION!!!"

His eyes changed, his height grew, his size grew, and his all-round power got enhanced, and a pair of demon wings and a single horn grew on the right side of his forehead.

"Ahhh my wounds are healing, as expected of a demon powers, full recovery and got boosters, I could say I'm 750% more powerful than before, hehe" Gen smiled

He got more powerful than Heimer, however it's not enough to match Xenore's.

"Now let's see your delicious SPELLS"

"Appraisal" Gen muttered, activating his appraisal powers.

"*Finally my plan has succeeded*"

*"My copy magic has 3 limitations, I can only copy spells aligned with my affinity, I can only copy one spell per individual, and I can only copy spells with the same or below the amount of my mana*"

"*It was hard to find individual with dark or light affinities, then I found Sylvara who was on the brink of ruin, however I can't copy any strong spells cause I'm still weak, so I made a contract to boost my mana, to protect my body, to start the alliance with demons, to have a powerful companion and to copy her spells*"

"*And of course, Sylvara the demoness is a treasure, she alone got great spells, but her subordinates has too, truly a treasure trove, kukuku hundreds of demons ehh ahahahahah Bwahahahahaha!*"

"*Your spell are now mine!*" he thought, laughing in ecstasy.

He grins as the status of Heimer, Xenore and Sylvara are now displayed in front of his eyes.

"did he hit his head or something, you're not powerful enough to beat us!" Xenore commented.

"*now let's see our S - Ranked Demoness, i can finally see your stats, formerly filled with question marks*"

Gen got frozen in shock, the realization of her true power had took his breathe for a moment.

"*H-how can a single individual.... I expect her to be very strong but I was wrong, she's freaking extremely strong, is she a walking disaster?*"

"*All she said about easily wiping out the kingdom was not a joke, i been traveling with a calamity, and she's bounded to me, sheesh her stats is too long for my virtual System screen to fit*"

Gen moved his eyes to the Xenore and heimer, Their stats were very strong but incomparable to Sylvara.

"*They are strong alright, but something is off, how come Sylvara got too many magic spells and spiritual techniques, her whole magical and spiritual energy is not enough to use all of it, unlike Hiemer who has higher energy than his spells and technique and Xenore who is balanced*"

"*Either way I take one of your spells Sylvara, but for now I will take only from Xenore and Hiemer*"

"You're too precious" said Gen.

"Huh what did he said?" Sylvara asked in confusion, knowing Gen's gaze is at her.

"Hmp! such power does not fit for you" heimer charges his spiritual and magical energy on his spear.

"I will not go easy on you" Heimer disappeared from Gen's sigh, arriving at his back in a link of an eye.

As Hiemer stabbed Gen with his Spear covered in cursed lighting, Gen's body became a dark smoke.

Hiemer got shocked beyond words as that spell was none other that Xenore's

"Ascended Dark magic -Doppelganger" a Cursedmagic that copies the target's appearance, personality and a 75% of it's prowess.
