Rise of the Rejected Deity from Chaos-Chapter 123 122: Fourth Demon Down | The Third?
"Tei," The female demon breathed in a whisper, voice quivering as shock overcame her senses.
With one hand, Seiya gripped the male demon's severed head by his hair, and with the other, he plunged into the demon's chest in a quick motion.
With his hand stuck inside the demon's chest, Seiya rose to his feet, the demon's severed head hanging from one hand, steadily dripping blood onto the ground beside Seiya.
The female demon who had been stilled in place from shock, recovered her senses and lunged forward at Seiya—aiming to ensnare him with a blood whip.
Seiya, however, was quick to react. Seiya swept the severed head aside, driving it into the female demon with crushing force. The impact sent her hurtling through the air, her body crashing into the distance.
The male demon whose head had been severed, saw the brief moment Seiya engaged with the female demon as a chance—so he clasped his hands together—aiming to weave his technique but Seiya, despite blind at the moment, had sensitive ears and sharp instincts.
Seiya threw the severed head upward with precision before wrapping his hand around the male demon's clasped hands, crushing it in a firm grip before twisting it—shattering every bone in the demon's hands.

He let go, opening up his palm in wait as the severed head he threw up descended back in the straight line Seiya threw it, landing back in his hand.
Angered by how Seiya handled her companion's severed head, the female demon rose from where she had crashed and lunged forward with flaring malice.
But Seiya, attuned to her every movement, wasted no time. He crouched slightly, gathering power in his legs and grip before hurling the severed head with such force that it tore through the air, dragging the wind in its path. The impact struck the female demon with relentless pressure, blasting her backward and sending her crashing into the distance.
The head tumbled, rolling across the ground.
Seiya immediately turned back to the male demon he had seized in place with his hand stabbed into his chest. Before the demon's broken hands could heal, Seiya swept the demon's legs off the ground, landing him back down on the ground—his own posture hunching over as the demon fell.
Seiya ripped his hand from the demon's chest, tearing out one of his hearts. Without a second wasted, he plunged his tensed hand into the demon's chest again, tearing out another heart.
The male demon's broken hands healed and he immediately snapped it forward, seizing Seiya's hand in place as he aimed to rip out his third heart.
Seiya and the demon plunged into a fight of strength—their hands bulging with veins as it shook, both of them trying to overwhelm each other. The demon's strength wavered for a moment, prompting him to add his other hand for support as he desperately struggled to stop Seiya's hand from tearing out his third heart.
From the distance, the female demon rose once more from where she had fallen. From her fingertips, blood dripped, pooling across the ground in a vast expanse before twisting into long, sinuous arrows.
With a sweeping motion, she cast her hands skyward, unleashing a surge of liquid arrow projectiles. The flexible arrows, writhing like living tendrils, erupted from the crimson pool in a torrential surge, curving through the air as they streaked toward Seiya.
Sensing and hearing the impending attack, Seiya's body shunned with urgency. In a desperate fit to end the demon in time, Seiya's muscles expanded, bulging bigger as he ripped out the third heart despite the demon's strength pulling down on his hand.
Without a second wasted, Seiya seized both hands of the demon, crushing it in a firm grip before twisting it. Then, in the same instant, he delivered a punch infused with sheer devastation, driving it into the demon's chest and shattering the two hearts that remained.
A heart-wrenching scream tore from the female demon, her cry echoing in anguish as she called out to the male demon.
From where the male demon's severed head rested, his eyes opened wide in a mix of emotions, but the shock was more vivid than anything else. His lips parted slightly, his companion's name the only word that escaped in a whispery tone, "Kei."
Not long after, life drained out of him, his eyes shutting as his body stilled.
Seiya immediately leapt away before the blood arrows could reach, but that didn't stop them. They whipped through the air, curving as they followed Seiya—determined to hit.
From where she stood, the female demon crashed to her knee, an agonizing cry tearing from her throat. "Teisou!!!!" She screamed, head falling back as anger and pain seared through her.
Without the use of his eyes, Seiya's instincts and senses were limited, preventing him from evading all the arrows. They pierced his body from both front and back, rending his flesh. Yet, Seiya neither flinched nor made any attempt to remove them.
Paying them no mind, Seiya walked toward the female demon who had been consumed by pain, wailing in sorrow. His steps were slow and heavy, his blood dripping onto the already messy path with every step he took forward.
He stopped just before the demon, silent as he cast his gaze down on her. Her eyes flared open, red and wide with rage as she gazed up at Seiya.
Delicate threads of veins twisted within her eyes, their bulging lines spreading across her face as a searing wave of hatred and anger radiated from her, coiling tightly around Seiya.
"You!" She seethed through gritted teeth. "I'll kill you!" She declared in rage.
"You chatter too much," Seiya remarked coldly.
The demon's fury reached its peak, eyes shifting and landing on her deceased companion. Her eyes trembled within their sockets, the image of his death searing itself into her mind once more.
Another agonizing scream tore from the depths of her soul, head falling back as she screamed, succumbing to the pain overriding her senses and letting it consume her.
In response to her raging wail, towering pillars of thick blood shot from the ground at every angle, rising toward the sky. With each echo of her scream, more pillars erupted, surging violently upward.
The pillars twisted as they climbed, curving at the top to merge into a spear—a jagged arrowhead forming at the tip. It then curved downward, gathering speed as it hurtled toward Seiya like a deadly force descending from the sky.
Fed up by the demon's relentless wails, Seiya bent low, seizing her by the hair with a firm grip and yanking her to her feet. Wasting no time, he drew back a devastating punch, heavier and more charged with destructive power than before.
With every muscle taut, he thrust the blow into her chest, shattering it completely. The impact obliterated the whole chest area, crushing all seven of her hearts, which exploded outward in a violent burst.
