Chapter 425: Born to Be Human (I)
Naturally, Krus doesn't have two souls just because he's a half-blood, isn't it?Besides, the only normal creatures that have confirmed this condition are probably the two-headed trolls in ogres and the multi-headed sea monsters that only exist in coastal legends. However, as a demon descendant with both devil and human blood, he still has some talents that seem strange to ordinary people, such as two sets of thinking logic. These two ways of thinking tend to work in tandem to make Clarus more clear and efficient in his thinking, but this ability is also a constraint that makes the Demon Descendant's way of thinking between that of a human and a demon, that is, less cold than the devil and less passionate than a human. When the mechanically sane devil can't defeat his enemies, the killer knows it's time to set the fire that lurks in his heart to burn.
"It's just a bluff. The brown-robed priest said disdainfully as he faced his bare-handed opponent. This is not a light enemy, after all, Krus could not defeat himself when he was in good condition with all his weapons before, and now the Demon Descendant is obviously at the end of his crossbow, even if he has some hand-to-hand combat skills, how much can he exert with his physical strength now?
"Hmph. The Demon's hearing still hadn't been restored, so he hadn't heard Jill. The killer shook his body to adapt himself to this state of lack of hearing feedback, and after about three or two breaths, he was ready, only to see Clarus snort coldly, stretched out the index finger of his right hand and hooked it towards the other party, this guy who has been cornered, he is actually, taking the initiative to provoke?
"Look for death!" the priest didn't hesitate, he flicked his hammer and smashed it into the killer's face. It's not surprising, not to mention the worshippers of evil gods, even saints, in such a battle, they have already moved their real fire, and Jill who is carried away by anger now has only one goal in his mind, to use the weapon in his hand to make that damn demon pay for his stupidity.
Faced with the hammer coming towards the door, Krus did not choose to dodge, he raised his hands, as if trying to block the attack in the air. The priest sneered, what a foolish decision, considering that the flail and chain hammer used by the Earth Mother Believers were all blessed murder weapons, and although the actual weight of these weapons was far greater than that of any known metal of the same volume, it was not obvious from the size. Even if you are a real hand-to-hand combat master, if you want to intercept this murder weapon with strong kinetic energy, I am afraid that you will inevitably break your tendons and fractures, which is no longer a category that can be made up for by skill. Jill had even seen the moment when the hammer smashed the clawed devil's palms.
As for the Demon Descendant, he knew very well that the attack he was going to take was not as simple as it seemed, and his eyes burning with faint flames stared at the hammer that was approaching him, and as the hammer head of the jujube kernel type grew larger and larger, he recalled a phrase he had heard for many years. "The wind can knock down a tree, but it can't hurt the weeds that grow close to the ground. The old, gentle voice appeared in the killer's mind, his tense muscles slowly loosening with the imaginary words, and the posture of his hands changed from fists to palms.
The next scene shocked everyone, and even Peg's eyes lit up with surprise when he saw what Clarus had done. Judging from his movements, Krus seemed to have used some kind of melee trick, and instead of trying to entangle his palms with the hammer, he instead went around the top to find the chain behind him. It was a very dangerous decision, with the length of the demon's arm, the slightest carelessness would cause the deadly hammer to smash his head mercilessly. But when his hands touched the chain one after another, Jill who held the handle of the chain hammer instantly understood that his blow was doomed to be fruitless. Suction, the hands somehow created a huge suction force at the front end of the chain, and that force not only completely destroyed the inertia on the hammer, but even faintly wanted to pull the priest on the other end of the chain.
Desperately, Jill had no choice but to let go of his grip and let his opponent snatch the hammer away, and Clarus's strange skills made him throw a mouse. "What is this, what is it?" though he didn't expect the other party to tell him the truth, the brown-robed priest asked, feeling that his opponent, who had been fully recognized, had become blurred again. This is not good news.
"Heh, I didn't expect it to succeed at this time. The Demon laughed to himself, his right index and middle fingers twisted unusually, apparently because his move had been broken by the force of the chain. However, this level of damage was naturally not worth mentioning compared to being pierced through the heart before, and Krus ripped off the handle of the chain hammer and wrapped the chain around his right arm, allowing the hammer head to replace his right hand. "You're curious about what it is? I'm curious to tell you the truth. "It's not a lie, the killer himself really doesn't fully understand the technique he just used. The origin of this technique goes back many years.
It was shortly after Siggett returned to the throne of the Blue Lion, and the adventure party established by the new king was also disbanded due to his absence and that of André the Dwarf. The other members were not saddened by this, they respected their choice, and since each person was different in age and even race, this difference was a normal ending. Krus was no exception, but in addition to a lot of emotion, the demon soon found himself facing a very terrible problem, from the blood of the devil. Although under the leadership of Sigget, the team finally killed the devil father of Kalus, but this also deprived the bloodline in the demon spawn of the last insurance. The power of the devil grows in the demon's body, and Calus can still fight against his friends when he is around, but after the team is disbanded, the identity of the demon descent makes him almost lose all possibility of communicating with others, and the loneliness of being alienated from the world breeds indifference. Then, on a rainy night, after Callus kills a family as a killer, the Demon Spawn suddenly finds himself in the same thing as his father, a monster of rational egoism.
Realizing this, Kalus almost completely collapsed, kneeling in the rain until dawn before leaving the scene of the crime like a dead body. Instead of getting paid, he fled the city and plunged headlong into the forest. Self-destruction, this is the only way out that the Demon Descendant can think of, he understands that he can't live like this, so he is sorry for those friends, he can't let himself be occupied by the blood of the devil. So, kill yourself and end this miserable life in the depths of this unknown forest.
And fate didn't want to let go of this poor soul so easily, and in that unknown rainforest, the killer ushered in the second turning point of his life, a human.
