Chapter 37: The Curse

In the skeleton-strewn hall, the fierce battle between Shore and Aligus had begun.

The blades collided with each other, and Aligus showed a slightly surprised look for a moment, he didn't expect that the strength of the man in front of him was completely equal to him.

The blue electricity on the blade of Maia's sword would have broken in an instant, but Aligus was able to block Shore's attack, thanks to the long sword he wielded called Calamity.

This sword has been following him on the battlefield for many years, and it was this sword that killed Philence back then, and after so many years, the blade has been impregnated with his power, and it can be said that this sword is already a part of his body.

This human swordsmanship is very strong, which is the most intuitive feeling of Aligus at this moment. Shore's attacks are extremely swift and flawless, and with his extremely destructive lightning strikes, he can be said to be a very difficult enemy.

"Humans. Aligus pressed against Shore's sword and said, "Your strength is strong." ”

"One another. Shore laughed, "You shouldn't have shown your real skills yet, right?"

Perception is also very sharp, Aligus chuckled inwardly, the man in front of him had sensed that he was not using his true strength, and so did he.

Shore flicked off Aligus's blade, he took a few steps back, and then said to Aligus in a relaxed tone, "I don't have that much time to waste here with you, let's do it quickly, Aligus." ”

"Shore, you're an interesting human being. Aligus said with a smile, a red and black glow appeared on the backs of his hands, and at the same time, Shore also felt the tremendous power coming from Aligus.

"Is this power, demonization?" said Shore as he looked at Aligus, his blood-red left eye had seen the flow of power in Aligus's body, and he immediately judged that the power that Aligus was going to use next was demonization.

"Can you see the flow of power?" Aligus thought it was getting more and more interesting, "that red eye, an ominous eye, and from that eye I could feel a strong oppression, like being in an ice cave. ”

"I see, I see. Aligus laughed, "Is the dark side the same as the light side? ”

Could this be the reason why Lord Satan wants him to live? Alegus thought to himself, his power is indeed very strong, but if this is the reason, it is too unbelievable.

But he quickly dispelled the thought, the Lord must have had his own considerations for doing so, and although I don't know what it was, all I need to do now is follow the orders of the Lord.

"That's true. Shore also began to drive the power in his body, "Since you are ready to show your true strength, then I will accompany you to the end!"

The surging thunder and lightning turned into armor on Shore's body, and Maia's sword blade also turned into a dazzling blue electric light, and the thunder and lightning roared endlessly, and the powerful thunder and lightning force forced Aligus to retreat one after another.

"Awaken at last, Word Thunder will be punished!" said Shore, pointing at Aligus, "Come, Aligus, your sins will end here." ”

"This power is simply not something that humans can have. Aligus felt as if he was sweating, "But you must be underestimating us! Even with such power, it is impossible for me to retreat in the slightest!"

"Then let's decide the outcome of the battle!" Shore was ready to attack, "we must not let you demons stop our progress!"

"Good!" Aligus's body changed to his original werewolf form, his black claws were terrifying, and the red and black glow of his hands was also terrifying.

"Then let me see your power!" Aligus struck the ground with a claw, and the red light quickly spread across the ground, and at the same time, Shore also turned into blue lightning and launched an attack on Aligus.

There's no way you can dodge it, Aligus. Shore knew that even Mephistopheles would not be able to dodge this speed, and Maia, who turned into thunder and lightning, could destroy everything that the blade touched, and I would definitely win this battle.

But Shore felt something strange in his body in an instant, as if the strength of his whole body was locked, not only did his speed not improve at all, but even the power he was using now was rapidly weakening.

"Bell!" Aligus swung his sword at Maia, and Shore realized that Maia, who had turned into thunder and lightning, had returned to her original state, and because of this, Aligus could block his attacks with great normalcy.

"What's the matter?" said Aligus, with a hint of mockery, "Did you suddenly feel that your strength was not enough? ”

"What did you do?" Shore asked, staring into Aligus' eyes.

"I didn't do anything, I just activated my abilities. Aligus smiled slightly, "Demon Cursed Domain, I have let my power spread throughout the space, and this cursed power will continue to suppress your power, you should not feel comfortable now." ”

"Do you think you can win this battle just by that?" Schauer roared, "I'm not going to stop here!"

Maia's blade turned into blue lightning again, but fortunately Aligus immediately pulled out of the stalemate, otherwise Shore would have been able to cut off the "calamity" in his hand and cause him great damage.

"In this case, can such a powerful force be reactivated?" Aligus's hand holding the sword trembled slightly, "In that case, let me let you feel the real fear for yourself!"

Aligus rushed towards Shore, and Shore's superior insight had already been honed to see through his attack, and despite the heavy weight of his body, he dodged Aligus's attack in one fell swoop.

"It's not over yet!" Alligus struck a second time before he was gone, and he was already behind Shore, and he seized the corner to strike again.

The claws struck straight at Shore's throat, but Shore dodged the deadly attack at the last moment, but because Aligus was attacking from a dead angle, he was left with a shallow wound on the side of his neck, despite his superior insight.

"It's my turn!" Shore struck back, Maia's blade tearing open a wound in Aligus's chest, and dark purple blood gushed out in an instant.

"Uhhhh

"Even though your body is gradually weakening, can you still launch such a counterattack?" said Aligus laughed, "I have never seen a human like you, neither strength nor willpower. ”

"The fight isn't over yet!" Shore clasped his hands tightly around Maia, "and the next blow will end the fight once and for all!"

"Nope. Aligus smiled mysteriously, "There's no next time, the battle is over here, Shore, I'm the winner!"

"What are you talking about—" Before Shore could finish his sentence, he felt a cramping pain in his heart, and he fell to his knees at once, not only was his heart aching violently, but his whole body was weakening faster than before.

"I said there was no next time, Shore. "Aligus had clearly expected this to turn out for a long time.

"This is the ability to demonize the mark of the curse. Each time you use your power, the cursed power infused into your body will move faster towards your heart, and the process will be painful, and at the end of the day your heart will stop beating because of your own strength. ”

Demonization, curse marks?, Shore only felt a burning pain in his heart, when? When did he inject the power of the curse into me.

He immediately remembered the wound on his neck just now. That's right, it's that wound, and that attack just now wasn't to take my life, but to inject the power of the curse into my body, and that's what he did at the risk of injury!

"Why do you want to keep fighting?" Alligus watched as Shore stood up in front of him with trembling legs, "Don't do this kind of meaningless thing, the more you use your power, the more painful it will be, and in the end you will die because of yourself." ”

But I can't let you die. Alegus thought to himself, Lord Satan will not allow you to die now, so I have to control this power well, and in the end, it will make you lose consciousness in pain at most, without harming your life.

But that's enough, your power has been bound by the power of the curse, and even if you can unleash some power, you won't be able to use it because of the pain, and you'll already lose anyway.

Shore only felt that things in front of him were blurring, and his heart was aching, the pain was unbearable, and every time he resonated with the power, the pain almost made him faint.

"It looks like it's time to finish. Boron stepped forward, "Aligus, your mission is complete, give me this human." ”

"You?" said Aligus, glancing at Bolon.

"That's right, just give him to me. Bronn smiled contemptuously at Aligus, "Don't forget who you're loyal to, I'm not going to leave his life to Satan." ”

"You can't do that!" shouted the messenger who had previously opposed Bolon, "Lord Satan wants this man to live, do you want to disobey that man's orders?"

"It's you again. Boron looked at the envoy with annoyance and said, "I should have said you had too many mouths, it's so annoying for a guy like you!"

Bronn grabbed the demon's neck tightly with one hand, and the demon struggled in pain, but Bron's hand was getting tighter and tighter.

"Now I'll show you what happens to talkers, who often have only one fate, and that is death!"

"Lord Aligus. The demon barely squeezed these words out of his mouth, "I believe in you, you will never betray Lord Satan!"

"Really?" Pollon laughed, "Then return to Satan's embrace with this trust!"

"Enough! stop!" Alligus snapped, and even Boron was startled by the sudden shout.

"What's the matter, do you have any opinions?" asked Bolon.

"Let my men go. "I'll deal with that human, I'll take care of it myself, and I'll let you see it happen." ”

"Oh. Bronn was visibly interested, and he grabbed the demon's hand and lowered. "That's a lot of fun, so let me see it for myself. ”
