Chương 103: Looking For Workers...

"The hell... What are you, a rooster at the Crack of dawn or something? Roaring your lungs out the moment you are out side...."

Rolling his eyes, Shuhang told off Ddraig whom is still reveling in the feeling of his (temporary) freedom. Said dragon looked a bit sheepish when he overheard Shuhang's comment and quickly shouting out an excuse through their mental link.

[I.. Can't help it you know?! This is the first time I've ever been out side.]

With a sigh, Shuhang pointed at a seemingly random direction. Of course it actually wasn't random at all as he could sense multiple presences coming towards their direction at high speed. 2 of which were actually much more powerful than the Ultimate Class Devil he's killed prior.

Shuhang: "Ddraig. There will be more opportunities in the future to fool around later. For now though, go wild with those people and keep them busy. This will be the prefect time to test the durability of this (temp) body of yours. The main thing however, we need to test how much the karmic virtue body can withstand your [Boosts] so do that towards the end."

After giving a few more instructions to Ddraig, Shuhang watched the over excited dragon fly off to cause some mayhem. Once Ddraig had left his sight though, a frown quickly appeared on his face as Shuhang quietly mutter something to himself.

"Hmm. 'first time outside'... is it? Did he meant that as 'after a long time' or...."

Whatever he was thinking was quickly interrupted by an anxious sounding Kuroka that looked as if she was about ready to run off at any moment now.

Kuroka: "Shu-sama... Shirone. Can we go save Shirone now, nyaa?"

(Oh yeah... Still need to do that.)

With this (Un)timely interruption, Shuhang's doubt was put away in the back of his mind and quickly forgotten until much later. Even though he would complain about this fact a lot in the future, Shuhang did not put the blame on Kuroka's unintentional disruption. Were it someone important to Shuhang, he would definitely act the same way. Probably even worse actually... The fact that Kuroka hadn't recklessly rush off and showing self restraint is already very admirable as it is.

Shuhang: "Of course. Just give me a second to clear away all the nuisance."

As his words fell, Shuhang raised a hand with an open palm at the same time. Suddenly, a sword appeared. One that would cause a lot of turmoil amongst the the 3 factions were word to get out. At this moment however, his trollish blood reared it's ugly head and Shuhang had no intention whatsoever to reign in it. This is for the sake of a petty revenge against that damned sis-con Michael for chasing him before when Shuhang was still weakened from the after effect of fighting Great Red.

"EX..... CALIBUUUUUUUR!!!"

A bright light, filled with holy aura enveloped the world and the castle was reduced to mere rubble. When the dust cleared, where a castle once stood... only the flat ground and a few occasional hole here and there. The most surprising thing for the witnesses were the fact that almost no Devil had actually died from that terrifying level of 'Holy Energy' just now.

In no time at all, a set of stairs which lead towards the dungeon underground were found. With Shuhang suppressing everyone else, Kuroka had basically free reign to run wild and rescued her little sister in neck breaking speed. Literally. The touching and teary reunion had to be interrupted however as Shuhang could tell that there were now only about half of the nekoshous were alive at this point due to the Devils' purge.

As soon as the pair of sisters boarded the Vimana, the already bright glow fluctuated a little before the group disappeared altogether, as if they were never there in the first place. The only proof of their existence was the sorry state of what was once a castle. Off in the distance, the sounds of explosion could be heard as dark red energy and massive hails could be seen.

Shuhang: "Its a lot worse than I thought..."

With three sudden appearance of a glowing flying construct and even a terrifying Holy Energy accompanying it, the battlefield had of course come to a lul as confusion set in.

Random Devil: "S-shit! Reinforcements! I can sense Holy Power! Why is [The Church] getting involved!?"

Shuhang had of course ignored all the cries, asking for his identity and allegiance. Another surprising thing that Shuhang felt were the Souls of the deceased nekoshous getting drawn by the Grail in his inner world. (Why it didn't react this way with the Devils I killed before? Is it due to the law of this world, set down by the Biblical God of the angel faction, that a Devils corrupt soul would dissipate upon death?...)

Seeing that the Devils were growing more restless because of silence, causing them to just about to attack at any time now, Shuhang made the first move and attacked. Before that though, he had to suppress the Grail for the time being, as he wouldn't be able to revive the dead nekoshous later. Well, he could, but then they wouldn't be the same people anymore seeing as the Grail would purify the soul and it's memories once drawn in by the Grail. Just like what happened with the loose cultivator, Li Tiansu.

Shuhang: "Devils. You shall die for the crime of slaying the innocents today."

After saying his piece, hundreds of multi-colored light portals opened up behind him and weapons of Holy Attributes and 'Evil Slaying' properties appeared. Then without saying another word, death rained down upon the Devils. The stronger Devils that are closer to or at the 'Ultimate' level were personally taken care of by Shuhang and his 'Excalibur' while yet again... a few of the Devils were allowed to survive and escape with the news of his deeds today.

And just like that, only the nekoshous, still full of wariness of their savior(?) with still unknown allegiance and intentions. Said tension were destroyed when they heard his next words.

Shuhang: "So... I'm looking for some workers to tend my 'fields' for me. Anyone looking for a job?"
