Extra Pages: The Author's Odyssey
Chapter 134: Hopeless

Knowing that he would die if he tried to fight it Lucas took a step backwards, to run away from here.

"What the hell! What type of monsters are these?"

Just as he took a step back he heard a voice.

And he knows who's voice that.

Lucas slowly turned his head back to the field where he was fighting against the Humanoid Monster a few moments ago.

There he found that two people clad in batter-armed that would torn into a piece if hit with a powerful punch.

Red blood was leaking from their shoulders, they looked like waking corpses, their helmet still held on as Lucas spotted the Stark family crest on the chest armour.

They were one of three teams that lured away Humanoid Monster and from the looks of it they did win against that monster...somehow.

But they should not have come here!

The demon, who first walked out of the gate, looked toward these two and soon there was a grin on his hideous face.

"Ah, Humans."

Alarm bells rang in the head of two, as they heard the voice of the demon.

They know that monsters aren't supposed to talk but demons can.

-Bang, -Bang, -Bang, -Bang!

-Bang, -Bang, -Bang, -Bang!

Without missing a bit, both of them raised their armoured weapons gun and fired at him.

The demon did not dodge any of the mana-counting bullets, He let them hit his skin.

For a moment both of them thought they had killed a demon but they were wrong...very wrong!

Bullet did reach the demon skin but was not able to enter it.

"How pitiful." The demon said as he shook his head.

The demon took one step forward and vanished from its spot, The next second the demon appeared right beside the humans who fired at him.

"How-" Before he could finish what he wanted to say, the demon raised his hand in the air and long black started to grow up from his fingertips.

-Crack!

The long black finger of the demon easily tore apart the armour he was wearing, the demon's hand entered the man's chest and with a precise motion demon held the man's heart and brought it outside of its chest.

Blood vessels are still attached to the heart.

-Thump! -Thump! - Thump! -Thump!

-Thump! -Thump!- Thump! -Thump!

the heart was still beating because blood vessels were still attached to the heart.

A horrified expression comes to the man's face as he watches his heart in the hand of a demon.

"N-No, P-Please D-Don't-" Before that man could finish what he wanted to say, the demon crushed his heart in front of him.

The Red Blood of that man spread everywhere but was washed away by have rainstorm.

-Thud!

The yellow eyes of the man behind the helmet went lifeless and the body hit the ground.

All of this happens in 4 seconds.

His comrade didn't even notice when his partner died!

The second member slowly turned his head to the ground and watched the lifeless body of its friend.

Soon the reality hit him that his friends were dead now!

He clenched his teeth and raised the armed gun at the demon's face but he was too late to do anything.

-Slash!

-Thud!

Before that man could fire any mana bullets his hand cut off by the demon's long-black nails.

"Ahhhhhhhha!"

"My hands!"

He shouted as he saw both his hands on the ground still holding the gun.

The demon was having the best moment of its life as he watched the man in agony.

But soon demon mood soured as he heard the next words of the man.

"Y-You T-Think...You are strong but Y-You are not!"

Angard in human words demon raised his long black nail and cut off the heads of the men!

The head of the man rolled in the air, its headless body hit the ground and a large amount of blood came out of there...

"Pathetic, Human. He doesn't even know who is talking with." The demon said to himself and turned toward his other companies, who were watching this encounter with glee on their faces.

The head of a man who just died right now stops in front of Lucas, who is watching all of this as he hides himself in bushes.

Lucas let out Shakey's breath from his mouth, his body was trembling. He had seen death a few times since he came to this world but this one was more horrifying than any other he had encountered in his life.

'Fuck...' He curses as he feels the eyes of a dead man staring at him.

He wanted to go out there and protect them but considering his power Lucas had to sit and watch someone dying in front of him.

This is the first time Lucas felt this hopeless since he came here.

"We Demons will show our might to these pathetic humans!" Lucas's thoughts broke as he heard the demon who just killed someone talking to other demons.

"Our Master was forsaken by Noble demons, Clan and even by Demon king, himself. Now we have a chance to prove all of them wrong by killing everyone here!"

"When we do that, Demon King will allow us low-ranked demons to build a clan!"

"Today Will be a glorious day for our Master! Don't ever forget about that."

-Glory for master.

-Finally, we will have a chance to show our might.

-This is the day I have been waiting for.

After finishing his short speech all the demons began to shout.

Satisfying by his speech demon nodded to himself and said, "Now come, My fellow Demons merge with me and we shall conquer this city!"

The Demon said and opened his mouth, the mouth was big enough to enter 10 people at once.

Soon without any questions, all demons began to enter this demon's mouth.

Lucas felt disgusting and horrid as he watched demons begin to eat other demons!
