I hope you enjoy this, although I would frequently update this story since I had a lot of things to do.
He was dying.
The screams of his comrade entered through his ears. A demon cloaked with darkness and red, hot eyes that says nothing but death appeared out of nowhere and started to kill every one of his comrades.
A shout echoed throughout the battlefield. Slowly, he lifted his bloody head.
His eyes widened in horror as the demon grew and spikes jutted out from its body. The four knights were impaled to death. Blood dripped from the spikes. Bony mouths materialized from its body and greedily drank the crimson liquid.
With all his strength, he got up and picked up his staff. Pearlescent light radiated from the staff as he pointed the magical weapon at the demon.
His foe stopped eating the corpse and stared at the puny human.
"Sacred light from above, strike, destroy…annihilate, obliterate, eradicate!"
A strong, white seal formed underneath the caster. He thrust the staff forward. Balls of scared light surrounded the demon. With one word, they all morphed into swords of great length and skewered the demon in all places.
But his enemy was powerful. It growled, dispelling his magic and created a halberd from its bones. The demon hurled the weapon towards the man.
He just stared at the demon. This cursed being survived his thousand blades spell and it didn't damage the beast one bit.
He was going to die.
He closed his eyes and waited for his demise.
"Elias!"
The man opened his eyes and noticed that he was still alive. Impossible! How could he be alive when that demon struck him with its spear?
"R-un." A dying voice said.
His pupils dilated. His jaws were shaking. It was hard for him to breath.
"Melissa!" He cried.
He cradled her mutilated body in his arms. The man cast his strongest healing spell to close the wounds on her stomach.
But he failed. Blood was pouring out of her body.
"Now, I'll eat your soul, priest!" The demon said and reached for the man.
Do you wish to live?
He got up, picked up Melissa's katana and pointed it at the demon.
Abandon the light! Become the darkness itself! Use the forbidden art!.
Elias slowly lifted his head, locking his glare at the demon.
"I'll render your soul…" Spiritual energy flowed from the sword. "Useless!"
