The Monster Monarch System-Chapter 137: Weaponsmith (Part 3)

The Monster in front of Rem grew bigger by the minute, the magical energy surging around it unreal. The Demon’s concentration faltered and all of the portals closed – he took several steps back, the revenge and spite for Rem which he had shown earlier had been drowned, now all he could show was fear.

Rem didn’t stop there, as the Spidergob kept growing, he also summoned the Death Wolf Boss – a series of roars echoed across the dungeon as another monster appeared, a monster that Rem had grown acquainted with using.

As both powerful monsters fully appeared on the battlefield, the demon took a step back, his face showing his bewilderment and doubt – he couldn’t believe his eyes, His throat grew dry as he saw the plates of armor covering the body of the Death Wolf Boss and the murderous intent coming from both monsters, he didn’t believe he could win.

But his eyes soon gained focus, he clenched his fist and Tobi’s face flashed in his memory, his brother’s face...

Several portals opened behind the demon as he brought his hand to the air.

"Weapon Summoning!"

The portals shot forward several weapons, each of them shooting through the air toward the Monsters. Yet they didn’t do anything to penetrate the thick armor that covered these Monsters but they were the least of his attention, The Demon grabbed a Sword which was shooting out from a portal by the hilt and began sprinting toward Rem with hate in his eyes.

’If I kill him, these summons die,’ He thought as he increased his speed, he took a route which was far away from the Monsters but he seemed to have drawn the attention of the Spidergob as a tendril shot through the air, crashing into the ground in front of him and creating a powerful shockwave but the Demon was unfazed by the development, he leaped upon the tendril and into the air – setting his eyes on Rem who already held his Shortsword in preparation for a battle.

Another portal opened above the Demon and weapons came raining down upon Rem but the Apprentice moved out of the trajectory albeit grabbing a Sword.

’It’s pretty convenient for him to be wasting so many good weapons,’ Rem thought with a sigh as the Spidergob’s tendril came slamming into the Demon’s side, knocking all of the wind out of him and sending him flying through a nearby pillar.

Rem brandished both blades against each other and used Flash movement to close the distance between himself and the demon, the demon’s eyes flashed as Rem appeared above him, bringing both blades down in an attempt to kill him but he pushed off the ground, moving backward.

Rem’s blades collided with ground, a powerful shockwave echoing around. He stood up and looked at the Demon in the eyes.

"No more of the portal stuff," Rem said while pointing the Shortsword at him, "It’s annoying watching you waste so many weapons,"

The Demon said nothing and assumed a combat stance, silence drawing over both fighters. The only sounds they could hear were the weapons from the portals previously activated. Rem activated the body strengthening skill and that seemed to be the trigger the Demon needed to move forward.

He closed the distance between Rem and swung his sword but Rem ducked, dodging the strike before striking with a slash from the regular sword – the demon raised his sword and blocked it while gritting his teeth, a menacing aura flooded around him as he forced Rem’s blade away, aiming his own sword which was radiating with the aura right at Rem’s head.

Rem disappeared into thin air and appeared behind him with Flash movement, several slashes stretching across the Demon’s body.

"What exactly are you called?" Rem asked, he asked this question due to the shapely aura that had formed around the weapon.

"A Weaponsmith," The Demon replied as a healing steam covered his wounds, he vanished from his spot and began fighting with Rem again, Rem could feel the experience in these strikes – experience that this demon didn’t have earlier, Rem defended against a powerful slash forcing him to skid backward for a few meters before finally pulling to a stop.

The aura coated around the Demon as he took a more experienced stance, Rem’s instincts blared as he was forced on the defensive, the Demon swung his sword at Rem who defended it with his Shortsword – his arm vibrated as a result and Rem gritted his teeth as the sword came down again, tearing through his defenses and slashing his stomach open.

*Augh*

Rem’s eyes flashed, radiating with soul energy as another slash came from the demon but he ducked, abandoning the bigger sword in the air as it got hit by the slash, shattering into a hundred pieces. Rem moved forward, adrenaline surging within his blood as he stabbed into the Demon’s stomach, and pulled his blade out.

"You can’t hope to kill me like that," The Demon said and brought his sword down on Rem who used Flash movement to move out of the way, both of his hands on his blade.

"It’s not me that’s going to kill you," Rem said as a resounding roar suddenly echoed around them, The Death Wolf Boss appeared in front of the demon and used its front paw to smash the Demon into the ground.

Several web-like cracks emerged from the ground as the Death Wolf Boss pulled it’s paw back and the Demon jumped out of it, his body severely wounded from that single attack.

"Weapon Summ-"

"The same trick won’t work twice," Rem interrupted as he blasted the Demon with holy flames, engulfing the Weaponsmith mid-air. The Death Wolf Boss compressed energy into it’s mouth, shooting it forward as a crimson orb of destructive energy that slammed into the Demon mid-air and created a terrifying explosion.

Watching the burning corpse of the Demon fall to the ground, Rem gave a little sigh of contentment.

’I should really be blasting these demons with holy flames first,’ Rem thought as he prepared to disperse the monsters, only for a weapon to shoot through the air toward him – he raised up his blade and countered it but was sent flying backward at the force contained within the Weapon.
