The Demon and The God Slayer?


"So you Dream Reapers really think you can take down us Demigod's?" Mercy Sophia scoffed.

"You obviously have no idea who you're dealing with. I'm stronger than you might think girl. So you might not want to try and tempt me too much to kill you. Be happy you're still breathing right now." Malphas stated glaring daggers straight at Sophia.

"Oh so you think you can defeat me then huh? Well then! You seem like a big enough oaf to actually believe that!" Sophia stated with her chest puffed out and her head held high, "Let's see what kind of powers you got!" Sophia then charged straight at Malphas. Malphas snickered wickedly as he jumped in the air to avoid the oncoming attack.

"Black Napalm!" Malphas smiled as he jumped back and sent out a purple like flame that landed right in front of Sophia. Sophia jumped back and held one hand out. Suddenly a wave like force caught Malphas in mid air. Sophia rushed towards Malphas at full speed with her fist cocked back. Malphas smiled as he aimed his hand at the ground and sent out a purple flame that exploded into a large pillar causing Sophia to jump away. Malphas broke free of whatever Sophia was using and looked around for her.

"From behind!" Sophia appeared from behind and threw a hard punch towards Malphas. Malphas ducked and then came back up with an elbow right to Sophia's chest. Sophia lost all the air in her lungs from the impact. Malphas grabbed her by the throat and tossed her. Sophia stuck out both hands and a sudden wave slowed her down to a stop allowing her to recover in mid-air.

"I don't know what kind of magic that is, but I don't care!" Malphas leaped in the air with one hand out and sent out another wave of purple flames that exploded right in front of Mercy. Quickly she side stepped the attack and sent out another wave towards Malphas. Now this time the wave pushed Malphas right through a building. Sophia jumped in the air and did a backflip right before she dove down at the fallen Malphas. Malphas jumped back and let out another pillar of purple flames that erupted and consumed Sophia.

"Hmph, I know that's not all you got!" Malphas darted his eyes and saw Sophia behind him with her fist cocked back. Malphas ducked avoiding the punch. Sophia brought her elbow down, but it was easily stopped by Malphas who dropped down and raised his knee. The impact pushed Sophia away. Malphas quickly whipped around and dashed straight forward towards the Demigod mage. Sophia jumped up in the air trying to avoid Malphas. Malphas jumed up after her.

"Don't think you can run!" Malphas shouted.

"Who said I was running?!" Sophia smirked as she aimed her hand down below her and just let out a powerful force that drove Malphas down in to the ground. Sophia straightened her body out and began spinning like a drill. She then drove both of her feet into the stomach of Malphas.

"Guah!" Malphas coughed violently before he grabbed Sophia's ankles and slammed her into the ground next to him. Malphas then jumped up and whipped around to see that Sophia was not where he had recently just slammed her.

"What in the world?" He muttered. He then side stepped and threw his leg back nailing Sophia in the ribs. Sophia coughed slightly, but recovered and darted her eyes at Malphas.

"So did ya hear me?"

"More or less." Malphas replied Sophia grabbed Malphas's leg and punched him in the jaw while she could. Malphas went rolling across the ground and slammed right into another building. Sophia raised her hand and sent out a powerful wave towards Malphas. The wave knocked down the whole building collapsing on Malphas. Sophia looked at the collapsed building, and was about to approach it up until she was struck and burned from behind.

"Crap!" She shouted and turned around to see Malphas. Her back was burning as though he had just blasted her with magma

"You stupid little girl you're going to need more than that you defeat me. I hope ya know. Those little wave attacks of yours I can easily get around them with no problem." Malphas smiled. He had a feeling that Mercy was going to be strong, so he thought he'd try to end it quick with this Black Napalm magic. All he wanted to do was killer her and get it over with, the fact that she was still standing after that Black Napalm attack was proof enough she was strong.

"So we still doing this!" Mercy rushed Malphas. Malphas jumped up and snapped his leg forward kicking Mercy straight in the chest. She skidded back, then stuck one hand out and sent out another wave like blast.

"What is this magic?!" Malphas demanded to know as he was hit by the wave and was slowed down by it. Mercy smiled as she lifted her hand above her head and sent out another wave, but the wave descended down upon her. Quickly she disappeared.

"It's War God Magic!" She cried out elbowing Malphas in the chin.

"Oooof!" He cried out as his head snapped back. He fell down to the ground and looked up at Mercy right before she kicked Malphas dead in his chest sending him reeling back and through a series of buildings.

"Hahaha, man you're weaker than I thought! Here I thought the Dream Reapers were an actual threat for a moment! Guess I was wrong huh! You haven't done anything to impress me. Or maybe I'm just that strong! I understand if you can't comprehend my strength." Mercy said dusting her nails off cockily.

"Stupid Demigod's." Malphas sighed as he appeared behind Mercy. She turned around and Malphas back handed her sending her flying into another building.

"You must be crazy girl! Black Napalm!" A purple stream of fire was released across towards Mercy. Quickly Mercy jumped up and stuck her hand out to release the wave that would slow it down. Though she realized it was going to be too late and jumped out of the way allowing the building to burn up.

"Take this!" Mercy kneed Malphas in the stomach and blasted him back.

"Guah!" He coughed up some blood and glared over to the Demigod mage, "Okay...look..." Malphas stood up.

"You're really starting to piss me off! So here's what's about to go down! I'm ending this!" Malphas shouted, "I'm going to kill ya!" He said with a very sadistic smile on his face. Malphas's canine teeth extended into fangs while he grew out two large demonic and rotting wings, his skin seemed to darken and contort, his face twisted and took on a demonic appearance. His fingers extended into blood red claws, while he reached his hand out and summoned forth a black bladed red handled axe.

"This is my Demon Mode!" Malphas roared, "Now you're going to pay!" Malphas roared.

"Finally you're using your full magical ability!" Mercy smiled, "Because now I can do the same! Bellow of the Ice God!" Mercy let out a loud chilling cry that sent out a powerful black and sky blue wind that seemed to freeze anything in it's path.

"Rrrrraaaaa!" Malphas roared and swung his axe sending out a devastating wave that split the attack and nearly struck Mercy. An air blade like projectile went straight past Mercy and ripped through half the town.

"Sweet." Mercy smiled as the two's magical pressure's increased and crushed the buildings in the near vicinity. Malphas charged Mercy. Mercy cocked back her fist with a big grin on her face.

"Fist of the Ice God!" She roared as her fist began to glow light blue mixed with a black and purple coloring. She then tried to punch Malphas, but he side stepped it and slashed Mercy across her chest. Mercy stumbled back as her fist sent out a blast of ice that froze anything in it's path. Malphas grabbed Mercy by the throat and raised her in the air.

"Kick of the Ice God!" She shouted landing a devastating kick on Malphas's chest. Malphas stumbled back as his chest seemed to start to freezes over. Malphas punched his chest causing it to shatter with ease. Mercy cocked her head back and screamed at the top of her lungs:

"Bellow of the Ice God!"

"Hell's Inferno!" Malphas screamed back sending out a large pillar of black flames that countered Mercy's black and purple tinted blizzard. Once the two clashed Malphas did not wait to rush Mercy once more. He leaped up in the air and brought his axe down at full force. Mercy quickly leaped to the side as his axe smashed into the ground. The impact from Malphas's axe alone was enough to leave a large canyon like crack. Mercy did not think twice to react to this. She cocked back her fist.

"Take this you damned demon! Fist of the Ice God!" With that punch to Malphas's chest not only did he go skidding back his body slowly began to freeze.

"Don't underestimate me you stupid..."

"Watch it!" Mercy growled.

"Hellfire Roar!" With that a large explosion of fire melted Mercy's ice away and rushed Mercy once more with his axe raised.

"Ice Tomb of the Ice God!" Mercy placed her hands on the ground and up a large casket of ice tried to trap the demonic and wild Malphas. Malphas slashed his way out of the frozen casket and continued his assault.

"Bellow of the Ice..."

"Shut up!" Malphas shouted punching Mercy in the stomach. This caused Mercy to keel over. She grabbed her stomach, and Malphas kneed her in the face causing her to pop her back up. Malphas then drove his axe into her ribs.

"Aaaahhhh!" Mercy growled from the pain yet did her best to endure the hit. Though from that one strike she felt as though a whole shockwave tore her body down. This guy was definitely stronger than Mercy had thought. If he wasn't even the Dream Reaper's S-Class Mage then who was? What especially sucked was knowing who she was.

"Hellfire Axe Stream!" Malphas raised his axe above his head while the blood from Mercy dripped to the ground. The axe ignited in black flames as he swung it for Mercy's head. Mercy bent over backwards avoiding being beheaded. Mercy then pushed herself up on her hands and kicked Malphas across his neck.

"Grah!" He snapped and kicked Mercy in her slashed ribs.

"Aaaahh!" Mercy rolled over and held her aching ribs Quickly she jumped up and prepared to fight still.

"Come on, that all you got? I sure as hell hope not!" Mercy lunged towards Malphas who stopped her with one hand and grabbed her by the throat.

"Didn't I tell you to die already?" Malphas asked driving his fist into Mercy Sophia's stomach. Mercy took a deep breath and tried not to scream out, because that was showing weakness. Mercy landed an uppercut to Malphas causing him to stumble back.

"I'm not going to die or lose here no matter what!" Mercy cried out and stuck one hand out, "Blizzard of the Ice God!" Mercy released a massive black blizzard that engulfed Malphas. Malphas split the blizzard with his axe with ease. He grimaced and swung his axe slashing across Mercy's stomach. Mercy looked at the gaping wound in her abdomen as the blood began to pour out. She placed her hand over the fresh wound and froze it, then did the same to her previous wound on her ribs.

"Hahahaha! Whats wrong? You dying or something?" Malphas mocked walking over towards Mercy, "I really hope so! I got other things to do ya know!" Malphas stood right in front of Mercy and raised his axe high above his head as it ignited in flames.

"Hellfire Nova Axe! This'll kill you for sure!" Malphas brought his axe down at full speed aiming to split Mercy in half from the head down.

"No!" Suddenly a large wave of black flames beamed through the two turning anything and everyone in it's path to ashes.

"U-u-uuhhh..." Malphas looked down to see his hand and axe frozen in the ground, along with his feet.

"Good thing I know War God Magic, allowing me to speed myself up and get out the way. Then with my Ice God Slayer Magic I was able to freeze your hands and feet. I can tell that last attack was your strongest and took up the rest of your magic. Well...me on the other hand! I still have enough for one last attack!"

"Bellow of the Ice God!" Mercy roared sending out a massive black tinted blizzard that froze all of Malphas. As Malphas was frozen in place he slowly transformed back into his normal self.

"Huh...take that..." Mercy sighed as she fell to the ground on her butt and looked up at Malphas, "Man...I'm an S-Class Mage of the Demigod and I had trouble with you? Either I'm getting weaker or you guys are much much stronger than we had anticipated. Makes me wonder...who's the Dream Reaper's S-Class Mage?"

Though he's about to find out how strong this Dream Reaper is.
