บท 64: The Fury of the Fallen

An agonising shriek reverberated through the oppressive air as the fiery snake's fangs dug into the greater demon's neck.

Sizzling sounds accompanied the stench of burning meat the next second, overwhelming the blood and chaos.

Eyes wide in horror, the greater demon grunted and gripped the wound. With his other hand, he seized the snake by the throat and clenched his fingers with a wrathful roar.

"Who dares sneak an attack on me?"

The snake exploded in a shower of green sparks under his fingers terrifying pressure as his eyes landed on Luna's trembling figure.

She bit her lips, the taste of blood filling her mouth as she pierced them and lamented about the minor damage she had caused. 

Besides some blood and burnt skin, the greater demon seemed as fresh as a moment ago.

"I'm still too weak. If only I recovered just half of my strength..."

She gripped her forehead, tears of frustration rolling down her teeth.
