Chapter 6:
Rip and Tear.
In a snowy area of the Mistral kingdom, a small, dark-skinned old woman wearing blue tribal clothes and bionic visors on her eyes is seen. As she walks through the snow, she looks in her right hand at the red Power Stone she recently picked up. -How much will this rare Fire Dust crystal be worth?-
Suddenly, she feels the footsteps of something approaching at great speed. Once close enough, she turns her head and sees a strange creature. At first glance, it is a yeti with red eyes, white fur, and a pair of upper fangs. And such an innocent-looking yeti points with the index finger of her large hand.
-Your human has a shiny Power Stone. I, Sascuash, need that Power Stone to shout Power Change and fulfill my wish to have lots of bananas to eat.- The white yeti called Sascuash spoke in a very primitive way.
-What strange creature?- Are you a faun? - the old woman asks, looking strangely at the creature in front of her.
The yeti with a question mark on his forehead says -I'm not a faun, fauns are from the forest and have horns and goat legs. I'm a yeti, living in the snow, traveling from another world to find the Power Stone.
-You say you're from another world? - she sees how the snow creature nods with a smile.
-Hey everyone! I found a Power Stone here! - Exclaims a werewolf with gray fur and red eyes, and soon more werewolves and some Bengal tiger men arrive. All with malicious looks at the sight of the red gem.
The Yeti looks with a frown and begins to cover the old woman's back, and clenches both hands while growling -Grrr... Very bad monsters, human give me the Power Stone and run away. Monsters have no mercy on innocents.
-Shut up stupid yeti. Go back to the cave where you came from- one of the tiger men said with disdain, then he fixed his gaze on the old woman-Hey, old woman. Give us that Power Stone or we will kill you.
The old woman frowned and defiantly confronted the demons-What do you want this gem for?
-That is none of your business, old woman-said a werewolf, advancing a few steps.
The yeti tensed up when he saw that he and the old woman were being surrounded by the werewolves and tigers. So, worried, he looked at the old woman-There were a lot of bad monsters. Humans used the Power Stone and shouted Power Change to save themselves from bad monsters.
-Should I shout Power Change for this to work?-the old woman asked, looking at the yeti with a raised eyebrow, and saw how the creature nodded with a serious look-Ok, I'll do it as you say.
-Ha! Seriously, a human is thinking of using just one Power Stone, instead of the seven required ones? - said another of the many tiger men mockingly.
POWER CHANGE!
The gem gave its great flash, and with it the old woman changed her appearance completely. She became a young woman of about 18 years old with short black hair, silver eyes and who carries an imposing gigantic sickle with a human skull with red sparkles in the eye socket, and the blade is about two meters long and her clothing consists of a black tunic with shoulder pads in the shape of human skulls without the jaws. Finally, she wears a necklace with three human skulls that emit a dark aura from the underworld.
-Am I young again? - the woman looked at herself in her already rejuvenated appearance. And she takes out a mirror to look at her face -My eyes have returned! - She puts the mirror away with a serious look at the demons -So this is what the Power Stone does?
-It can't be?! That human used the Power Stone!
-Kill her! We have to recover the Power Stone at all costs! - The tiger man ordered while the werewolves run towards the human.
-Sascuash will fight! - The yeti launches into the attack giving strong blows that split a werewolf in half, then shoots an ice breath that freezes a tiger man and breaks into pieces instantly. Then he grabs a werewolf to do a German suplex along with an Argentine neckbreaker, until he exchanges blows with a muscular tiger man.
The demons that go towards the human jump to attack her with their claws, but are split in half by a single attack with that human behind them -Very slow- then look how a werewolf has his hands on fire and a tiger man has his hands in an aura of ice, and in unison they throw balls of fire and ice. But the human uses her sickle as a shield using a purple energy field, then takes a few steps forward -You guys keep going.
-Don't underestimate us human- said the tiger man and then he sees the human to his right after moving as if he had teleported, and she extends the palm of her hand. To launch a purple blast that completely disintegrates him.
The werewolf is scared by the enormous power of the human with the Power Stone -Fuck it all, I'm leaving- to his surprise he sees that human in front of him and grabs him by the neck to raise him.
-Your soul… I see that your soul is full of absolute evil, and you have killed countless innocents- The woman's eyes begin to shine in a terrifying white -It's time for you to pay for your sins- suddenly she emits a terrifying purple Aura that engulfs the werewolf, and begins to drain his entire being. Both his vitality and his soul, seeing how his body dries up turning into a mummy. Then, all fur, skin and flesh fall off until it becomes a skeleton that is then reduced to complete dust.
The monsters that are still alive looked terrified at the atrocious way in which one of their companions died. Seeing that human turning her gaze towards them, their hearts tensed and with nervous smiles they surrendered. -Hey, human, we surrender.
-Yes, love and peace among all.
-That's right! We're sorry! We were complete idiots!
-His words say one thing, but... - She closes her eyes and when she opens them again shows those terrifying white eyes without pupils -Their rotten souls say something else- without the slightest drop of pity, she extends the palm of her right hand in front of the demons and they begin to rise into the air. To then imbue them with his purple Aura and begin to suck their souls and energies, to dry them and leave them in absolute nothingness.
The yeti, seeing that all the werewolves and tigers were exterminated, runs very excitedly towards the woman -Bad monsters to be defeated. Human to be very strong and use Power Stone to become very strong. Sascuash excited to use Power Stone.
The woman looks at the yeti with a smile -Let me see if I fully understood. You came from a world ruled by demons called Makai, but in reality you come from a world ruled by humans called Earth, and you come from some rocky mountains in a large country called Canada.
-Ooohh. Human to be very intelligent, human to know many things- said Sascuash very impressed by such data.
-By absorbing the souls of those demons. Not only did I gain more power, but I also assimilated their memories and information about Makai, the world they call human. And even more details about the Power Stones-she extends her hand in greeting-I'm María Calavera, nice to meet you Sascuash.
-Sascuash is María Calavera's friend, María is a very good person and very strong-Sascuash takes the woman's hand and shakes it very happily.
Unexpectedly, María begins to glow in a faint white, until the flash appears and the red Power Stone is seen rising towards the sky and shooting off towards an uncertain destination.
The flash goes out and María is seen returning to her normal form... with the exception that she was completely rejuvenated at the age of 18. Age where the human body develops completely, which she looks at in the mirror and is surprised to see herself young again-I lost the transformation... but I'm still young and I got my eyes back as they were, so this is the effect of the Power Stone.
The Yeti, on the other hand, sees how the red gem shot off to who knows where it could have gone -Power Stone gone. Sascuash very sad
Maria tenderly caresses the Yeti's head -If you want, you can go to my house to spend the night.
-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-
In the Emerald Forest, the JNPR team is still in front of the succubus Lilith who is in her military attire from the day before.
Lilith sits on a log with a smile and asks -Okay, guys. How are you feeling today?
-Contrary to what I thought, my whole body would hurt. Well, the truth is I feel like I can do a lot more things- the JNPR leader answers very calmly.
-I feel much stronger than yesterday! - Nora exclaims very excited -I went to the gym to lift weights, and I was able to lift a lot of weights. I even surpassed the maximum barrier of 15 tons.
-We are really very grateful for yesterday's training- Pyrrha nods gently -It was as if from one day to the next we had become much stronger in record time.
-I'm glad to hear that- the succubus answers with a proud smile.
Ren suddenly sees something strange in the sky that draws his attention -What is that approaching in the sky?
Lilith looks in the direction where the boy pointed, and when she sees a red dot in the sky she is greatly surprised -That's it! - She takes out her bat wings and immediately takes flight towards the sky at high speed. And she manages to intercept the red dot in the form of a bright flash, which she manages to capture with both hands to see it in detail -There is no doubt, it is a Power Stone- she descends to the surface to show the dull red gem to the boys.
Jaune is the first to react very intrigued by the gem -Is that a Power Stone? But how?
The succubus looks closely at the red gem -Someone from far away must have used it. And it must have been a human or a faun if that were the case, but how did he know how to activate it? - She looks more closely at the gem -Someone from the Makai must have explained it to him. Or it must be a human who lived in the Makai.
-Are there humans in the Demon Realm? - Ren asks, very intrigued by the statement.
She nods, closing her eyes for a moment. -Yes, but they are mostly small communities. Some are hybrid humans by family heritage or were transformed into demons while retaining part of their humanity. There are also sectarian groups that are under the supervision of certain demons, or humans who voluntarily entered and only seek to test their strength by fighting demons. The vast majority are humans who come from a world governed by humans called Earth.-
Pyrrha slightly moves her head diagonally, curious. -Earth? And what is that world called Earth like?-
With a snap, Lilith separates her red beret into small bright green bats and these take the form of two globes. One showing the geography of Renmant and the other of the planet Earth. -Earth is a planet inhabited and governed by humans just like Renmant, but at the same time it is very different in many ways. Which may seem very strange and disconcerting to you.-
-Strange and disconcerting differences?- Jaune asks with a raised eyebrow. -Like what?-
-First, humans on Earth don't use Aura or Dust. There are no Faunus or Grimms either, third, at the level of civilization they are divided into more than 195 countries, in turn they are divided into six continents which are Asia, Africa, America, Europe, Oceania and Antarctica. There are also about 7,100 languages, almost the vast majority extinct and there are only main languages in certain countries. And currently the human population on Earth is estimated to be over 10,300 billion humans.
-Billions of humans?! - Jaune shouts with his eyes wide open.
-Wow... that's an immense amount. Even if we count all the Faunus, all of Renmant we don't even reach that amount of population- Pyrrha insinuates equally impressed.
-If there are no Faunus or Grimms on that Earth, does that mean it's a peaceful and safe world? - Ren asks with great interest in knowing more.
At that, Lilith makes a big sigh and stays thoughtful for more than a minute looking at the sky. Then she looks down with a nervous smile. -Well… How do I explain it to you so that it is pretty?-
Nora, seeing the demon girl's expression, fears the worst with a dark look. -Are you telling me that this world is much worse than ours?-
-No, it's not that. Compared to Renmant, Earth is thousands of times safer and more peaceful than Renmant.- She lowers her gaze a little. -It's just that, well, the fact that there are no Grimms or faunus doesn't mean that the humans of Earth don't have a history written in blood where wars, hatred, discrimination, conquests and even genocides have been part of it.- She looks up again. -But much of that is in the past, and currently that humanity is much more tolerant and inclusive. Even the humans of Renmant.-
-How is it that we are more tolerant and inclusive? - Ren asks with his hand on his chin.
-They are so inclusive that any act of racism and discrimination is severely punished by law with years of prison or life imprisonment. Whether it is with humans of different skin tones, religion, region. It is even applied to robots and artificial intelligences, the same applies to them if they commit crimes against humanity. There are even cases of demons living with humans, like any other citizen. As long as they do not commit any crime or break the law... even. If fauns lived in that world, they would be treated like normal citizens and any act of racism towards them would be penalized.
-Wow... it seems that we need those laws for fauns here in Renmant- comments Jaune impressed, then becomes thoughtful at a detail -But if on Earth they do not have Aura or Dust, that means they are weaker and technologically less advanced than here in Renmant.
-I would agree with you Jaune… if I were the humans of 400 years ago. From the 20th century onwards they have made important technological advances that changed the paradigm of things, such as atomic bombs, space travel, music, television and beautiful things like the internet, comics, musical bands, movies and especially video games and the internet.
-I mean the same thing we have here in Renmant, interesting- the invincible girl becomes more intrigued, but surprised by a detail -But what are these Atomic Bombs?
-Bombs designed to wipe entire cities off the map with all their inhabitants, used at the end of the Second World War. Which forced an entire country to surrender due to their terrifying destructive power… in simple words. Imagine a bomb or missile whose explosion can erase the city of Vale, and whose shockwave can destroy Beacon Academy in the process.
-WHAT! - The entire JNPR team shouted, shocked and with their eyes wide open.
-Are they really that advanced?! - Jaune exclaims, almost with his hair standing on end.
The succubus scratches her head a little, looking to the side -Well, there are nuances. Back then, 400 years ago, when the Atomic Bomb was created, Earth's technology was still in its infancy compared to the current technology here in Renmant. But in the present day on Earth in the 24th century, year 2338, technology is several giant steps ahead of Renmant's. Almost all of Renmat's technology is largely obsolete compared to Earth's.
-How obsolete is our technology, compared to theirs? - Ren asks with concern.
-At the technological level, trips to outer space to the moon and other planets in the solar system are already standardized, clean and free energy is the norm, virtual reality is the way to connect to the internet. Almost all diseases have been eradicated, including cancer, and that, added to advanced genetic manipulation, has led to the human life span being extended to more than 4 centuries. And a human can still look like he was between 18 or 20 years old even if he was more than 100 or 200 years old.
-Wow… That's incredible- expresses Pyrrha, just as impressed as her companions -But, without Aura, without Grimms to fight with and with all that technology that makes everything easier for them… I assume that those humans from Earth are not good fighters compared to a Hunter.
Lilith sighs again and with an understanding smile -You're right Pyrrha… if it were the humans from 300 years ago or less. But due to the great rebellion of the machines that almost put humanity on the verge of extinction, organisms were forged to create super humans capable of facing the machines. Among them the Strider Ninja Clan, The Bionic Commando. The Psycho Soldiers, the Ikari Warriors and the Final Fight Association, who together with two allied robots called X and Zero managed to end the war against the machines. From there, genetic modification in humans was standardized so that several could be in complete shape and immune to various viruses and diseases, in addition to great physical strength, resistance and information processing capacity. Until reaching who would be called The God Among Men.
-The God Among Men? So a human turned into a god? - Jaune questions very intrigued.
-A human from hell itself, a hostile world ruled by demons where the souls of evil humans reside… It is believed that he is a demigod because he spent thousands of years fighting and exterminating demons left and right. And when he arrived on Earth he immediately became a Hero of Heroes who single-handedly stopped two demonic invasions of Earth. And the last thing we heard about him was almost a month ago where he single-handedly defeated a planet-devouring alien called Pyron, humiliating him along with his army of planet-destroying robots… That human is so powerful and terrifying, that not even the elite demons of Makai want to set foot on Earth and run into that human.
-But who is he and what is his name? - Nora asks very interested - With that description he must be the coolest and most ass-breaking guy in all of history.
The succubus's gaze darkens in clear sign of terror -They call him the Doom Slayer- suddenly images come to her of a mythical man in a gray helmet with a navy blue visor and a green marine suit armed with a super double-barreled shotgun. That he didn't kill with it... He slaughtered demons as if there was no tomorrow! Just knowing about his legend was synonymous with the most absolute terror that a demon could have felt.
-And what things does the Doom Slayer do? - Nora insists very enthusiastically - Does he do cool things?
-What the Doom Slayer is capable of is so brutal and terrifying that I can't even describe it- he walks over to Nora and puts his hand on the orange-haired girl's head -Better that you see it for yourself- using his succubus abilities he transfers all his memories and knowledge of the mythical figure of the Doom Slayer. His exploits, his achievements, his indiscriminate massacres of demons, all his cruelty and brutality when it comes to tearing and disemboweling any entity that dares to confront him... After a while he removes the girl's hand, and she remains sitting with her head down without saying anything.
-Nora, are you okay?- Ren looks worriedly at his childhood friend who seems not to react.
-Rip... and Tear...- the girl spoke in a low voice with her head down.
Ren looks confused at Nora -What did you say?
-I said RIP AND TEAR!- She raises her head suddenly with a long smile and her eyes shining in total euphoria -By all the gods, that Doom Slayer is the coolest and most good-natured guy of all time. It's as if all the action heroes from the movies merged to create the ultimate hero and with total VIOLENCE!
-What happened to Nora?- Jaune is stunned to see the sudden change in his partner and turns to look at the succubus -What did you do to Nora?
-I just projected my memories and knowledge about the Doom Slayer, his way of being and way of fighting demons- Lilith puts her hand on Jaune's head to do the same, and once finished the leader of the JNPR is left with his eyes wide open -What do you think?
Turning his head slightly to look at the succubus, he answers -Is that Doom Slayer really human in the first place? Because what I saw makes any Grimm look like the most harmless thing compared to that avatar of violence and brutality.
-Grimms?! Listen Grimms, tell me supreme leader, where are there Grimms to kill and massacre with my own hands? - he turns his eyes to both sides with a latent thirst for blood in his gaze -If the Doom Slayer is capable of killing armies of demons with his own hands, then I must do the same with the Grimms to be at his level.
-Nora, isn't it very dangerous to fight a Grimm without a weapon? - warns Pyrrha looking worriedly at her partner -You haven't even used the Power Stone to begin with.
-You mean this? - she shows the green gem she has in her left hand.
Jaune looks in his pockets to see that he doesn't have the Power Stone with him, but his partner does -When did he get it?
-I won't use it for now- she puts the Power Stone in her pocket -Not before putting my life in real danger, when my body is on the verge of death and my Aura is exhausted. I will use the Power Stone to be reborn as new, and my fighting power will exceed 8000 power.
-8000?!- Lilith exclaims surprised -But your current fighting level is only 1200, which is already far above an experienced Hunter.
GROOOAAAA!
Several meters away a Grimm Ursa roared in total ferocity. And Nora turns around with a look of ecstasy -Good, my first victim arrived before me- as if she had become a wild animal, she runs hunched over and jumps to punch the Grimm in the face. She breaks his teeth and throws him face up to the ground, then repeatedly hits his snout until his head explodes.
Behind her, she turns to look at two Grimm Beowolves who growl at her in an attempt to attack her. But Nora didn't care and lunged at one of them, grabbing hold of one of its upper legs with one bite, and using only pure brute force, she managed to tear off its leg with one bite. She then kicked its belly and stomped on its back to finish it off.
The other Beowolf jumps to try to subdue the girl, but Nora is faster and grabs both parts of the monster's mouth. She stops by squeezing it to crack the bones of the skull until she breaks them completely, and finishes by tearing off both the upper and lower snout.
-Aaaaaahhhh! Rip and Tear! - she makes a war cry with her fisted hands, showing her big tits and hitting the central part as if it were a drum. Suddenly, many more Beowolves are seen surrounding the area -More. I need more victims.
The rest of the JNPR team, like Lilith herself, stare with wide eyes as Nora launches herself like a complete beast against that wave of Grimms, watching in great detail how the imperious girl strikes with a brutal force that breaks the bones of the Grimms. As if they were made of porcelain or aluminum. With her hands she tears off the legs, decapitates by tearing off heads and opens the bellies of each Beowolf by splitting them in half as if they were paper. And in an unthinkable way, she attacks by applying bites using only the force of her teeth to mutilate each Grimm that approaches her… blurring to a great extent who is the predator and who is the prey.
-Nora?- Ren looks in disbelief as a Beowolf tries to escape from Nora, but she grabs one of its hind legs and squeezes it with such force that it breaks its bones. Followed by going for the head with both hands to directly crush it and burst it.
-Is it really Nora? - Pyrrha witnesses how an Ursa arrives in battle to approach Nora with a swipe with its upper right paw, but the girl reacts by grabbing the paw and pressing the grip until breaking its bones and making the Ursa roar in unimaginable pain. To then witness how its right paw along with its shoulder are brutally torn off by the girl's inhuman strength, and she uses the mutilated paw as a bat to burst the Ursa's head with blunt blows.
-She... Is she still human? - Jaune watches in horror as Nora continues with her indiscriminate slaughter of Grimms left and right. Where the survival instincts of the black beasts come to the surface and they try to flee to be harassed by the girl as she launches herself one by one in hammer blows and stomps with both feet. To crush and dismember every Ursa and Beowolf that tries to escape from her endless bloodlust.
-I think I've created a monster- Lilith looks nervously and sweating little by little as she observes how Nora's eyes are not those green eyes that express innocence and a passion for playing. But those of a complete bloodthirsty Berserker with unparalleled violence, and a desire to fight and destroy everything she touches. She sees how a much larger Ursa approaches with more visible exoskeleton parts ready to kill any human or faun that comes close to him... only to be knocked down by a kick from Nora that leaves him stunned, and at the mercy of the girl's use of her nails and teeth to massacre him by tearing off his limbs. And see how he seems to roar for help until he dies and disintegrates within a few seconds.
You can see the Berserker girl almost turned into darkness with her gaze darkened and her eyes with tiny pupils that give a chilling appearance as she looks to both sides -More… I need more Grimms to kill and disembowel- suddenly she feels a large shadow that surrounds her for a few seconds, and she looks up to give a sinister half smile -Bingo.
From the sky a Grimm Neverdose looks down in search of its new human prey, and moves its wings to hunt the prey… without realizing that it is very eager to have it close. That at the moment of being almost five meters away, the prey makes a great jump and gives a strong punch to the beak of the bird Grimm. And such is the force of the blow that it ends up knocking it down and falls on the surface face up.
-Perfect- Nora, seeing that she has her new victim under her mercy, wastes no time in continuing to attack it, going for its legs and tearing them off at the same time, in which the Neverdose screams in pain and reacts by shooting its feathers as projectiles. But Nora didn't care much for using the torn off legs as shields, then jumping towards its head and tearing out its red eyes followed by its beak. And she finishes by making a great jump to give a strong stomp on its belly, finishing off the Neverdose, and after disintegrating it only gives a face of disappointment -What a weak faggot bird- she looks up to the front -I need more power and stronger victims.
Jaune sees Nora leave to who knows where and slowly turns to look at one of his companions -Ren, tell me the truth. Is this how Nora is when she wants to fight?
-It's only like that after watching an action movie or video game that she loved... and when someone steals her Pancakes- Ren sweated coldly remembering Nora's moments of fury -The last time someone stole her Pancakes, she was in the hospital for half a year, with broken bones and was crippled for life.
-We better follow her in case she gets hurt- Pyrrha insinuates worried but very cautiously showing a nervous smile.
-I honestly feel sorry for any Grimm that gets close to that girl- the succubus said following the JNPR team -But at the same time she is doing quite an honor in replicating the Doom Slayer in his way of fighting.
Although at first glance they lost track of where Nora was going. It was not very difficult to obtain clues of her whereabouts following the following indications of her footprints. Translated into dying Grimms of Grimms, parts of mutilated Grimms blown into the air, destroyed trees and other clues of the wave of death and destruction that Nora Valkyrie is causing in action.
Managing to find her, they see her in front of a gigantic Grimm scorpion known as Deathstalker. With Nora pointing at the dark creature in a challenging tone -Do you think you're the biggest dick here? Well, it's time for you to meet me, the almighty Nora Valkyrie so you can feel true terror.
The scorpion tries to capture the girl with one of its pincers, but Nora is waiting for something like that to happen. She manages to intercept the pincer by grabbing it with both hands, which she takes advantage of to deliver some strong kicks to the pincer until it ends up breaking. And applying much more force she ends up tearing it off the Grimm and it, in a screech of pain, reacts in retaliation by throwing its golden stinger. And Nora dodges it to then launch herself towards the monster's eyes, tearing them out one by one, leaving it completely blind. And it begins to act erratically, only for the girl with a malicious look to go towards the stinger and use it to stab her directly in the head to end its existence.
-No... it's not enough yet- Nora with a darkened face looks at her hands with some slight scratches that are healed by her own Aura -Where is a Grimm nest?
-I think the one that was more or less close I completely destroyed when I used the Power Stone yesterday- Pyrrha insinuates a little nervous, who the moment Nora turns to look -Eeeekkk... that's all I know, I swear- is terrified to witness its death gaze.
-It doesn't matter... Surely further away there must be more Grimms waiting for their death- Nora continues advancing further into the depths of the forest, to see what else she can kill.

Inside Beacon Academy, more specifically in Dean Ozpin's main office. He and Vice Principal Glynda Goodwitch watch with their advanced cameras everything that is happening in the Emerald Forest.
-Incredible, Miss Valkyrie has shown unparalleled strength and agility- Principal Ozpin, who while preparing a hot coffee, could not help but praise the great demonstration that one of his students from the academy has achieved.
Beside him is Glynda adjusting her glasses -That girl... What is that demon girl supposed to have done by putting her hand on Miss Valkyrie's head? It's as if she had become a completely different person- he takes off his glasses for a while to clean them with a handkerchief -It's as if she transformed into a beast that destroys everything.
-According to Miss Aensland, she only showed him everything she knew about that Hero of the Earth, and it seems that Miss Valkyrie gave him great admiration to want to be like that Hero- after finishing his coffee, he goes to the coffee maker for another serving -It's been almost 400 years since I heard about visitors from Makai, but it's the first time in eons that I find out that there is another world ruled by humans very different from Renmant.
-Tell me sir, when do you think we should intervene? - asks Glynda looking worriedly at the recording - I don't think we should let that demon girl do whatever she wants with those kids. Especially with how Miss Valkyrie is right now.
-Whenever you think it's necessary. At the moment it's convenient for Miss Aensland to transfer all her knowledge about the Powers Stones to the JNPR team, and for the training she's giving them to show everything that those young people are capable of achieving - she finishes serving two cups of coffee -Just remember how the young Arc ended up after having used the Powers Stones.
The vice principal takes her cup of coffee and shows a thoughtful look -In that aspect, we have to recognize it. Who knows how many months, years or even decades of training that demon girl is putting ahead of the JNPR team... it's fascinating as well as terrifying to think that thanks to some magical artifacts, four students are possibly at the level of an elite professional Hunter, or possibly far above one.
-At the moment, what intrigues me the most is knowing where the Power Stone that Miss Aensland captured in mid-flight came from- she takes a sip from the cup-Who used it, and under what intentions? Is it an ally or a dangerous enemy that must be watched out for?
While the vice-principal drinks her coffee, she looks strangely at one of the cameras in the Emerald Forest-Sir, you must see this… something tells me that a new threat is coming.
-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-,-
Back in the Emerald Forest with Nora wandering around in search of new prey.
-Stop there, human- a monstrous voice draws the girl's attention and she turns around to see a strange entity, which given its appearance makes it clear that it is not a Grimm. Nor a human or a faun, but a complete demon with long horns on its head. Intimidating bright green eyes and a bizarre navy blue harlequin outfit, which was anything but. The demon is a kind of gray-skinned goblin, carrying a scepter with a goat skull on top -Give me the Power Stone you carry, if you value your life.
Nora could only smile maliciously at the sight of the person in front of her -Great, fresh blood waiting to be spilled- she takes a few steps towards the harlequin demon -Tell me disgusting, what part of you do you want me to tear off with my own hands? Do I tear off your legs? Your guts? Your eyes so you can eat them?
The demon begins to tense up upon seeing the girl's disturbing murderous gaze -What are you supposed to imply, human? Don't you see what I am? I am a summoning demon, and I can summon very terrifying beings that would kill you in an instant.
-I will be very happy if you summon ugly bugs. That way I'll be very close to being as cool as the Doom Slayer- she continues to give a disturbing advance and cracks her knuckles -Come on, summon whoever you want to… Rip and Tear.
-What… did you say?- that name. The name alone of the famous Doom Slayer and his mythical phrase Rip and Tear. It was enough to make his blood run cold and his body begin to tremble with terror, and with his survival instincts at 100% he raises his satanic scepter high -FUCK EVERYTHING!
The scepter with a goat's skull shines in red eyes and from the ground several red circles emerge with the satanic pentagram. In a red flash several grotesque monsters appear with spikes all over their brown bodies, and with bright red eyes showing their sharp claws ready to kill whoever.
-Imps! I order you to kill that human as soon as possible! - the harlequin demon pointed out in desperation.
Among the newly summoned demons called as Imps, they begin to surround the human. And among the Imps, one with its hands throws a fireball that Nora reacts by dodging with difficulty.
-It seems that they offer more of a challenge than a Grimm- Nora's green eyes give a small flash added to a long half smile -It's time for fun- she sees how an Imp throws itself at her with its claws, and reacts by punching her directly in the face. Managing to knock him down and break some of his teeth, while another Imp does the same by launching himself to attack behind the girl's back. But Nora is faster in reacting in grabbing the monster's arm to do a judo lock and throw him to the ground, then stomping on his head, bursting it and making blood, guts and brains rain down on the ground -Ha, ha, ha! What fun!
Two Imps throw fireballs at the same one to see how that human grabs one of their own and uses it as a living shield, to die burned. Immediately one of the two is grabbed by the human who throws him to the ground and grabs both his arms to tear them off a few seconds later. The other Imp jumps back but sees how the human does the same to give a low blow to the abdomen, making a large hole. In which Nora finishes by ripping out his intestines and throwing them to the ground, followed by grabbing the demon's head and turning it to finish killing him.
Immediately the rest of the JNPR team arrives plus the succubus to stand there looking stunned at Nora fighting against the Imps in a bloody fight in favor of the young Valkyrie.
-Nora? - Ren watches as his friend throws herself on top of an Imp to stick her thumbs in its eyes causing it to make a heartbreaking scream.
-Come on bitch! Scream! Scream, motherfucker scream! -after sticking her thumbs in the demon's eyes as deep as she could. She finishes giving him a punch that blows his head off and gets up to look at the remaining demons -Who's next?!
-Those are demons? Nora is fighting demons? -Jaune watches very uncomfortable to become one of horror with his forehead darkened, as Nora turns her back on an Imp who throws him to the ground with a kick and then grabs one of his legs to tear it off. Followed by tearing off his other leg and using both mutilated limbs as hammers to finish off the demon.
-Indeed they are demons - the succubus agrees, looking disturbed at the carnage Nora is making with each demon she massacres with her own hands. Like an Imp who grabs her head to press both hands, to finish crushing the enemy's head with a strong squeeze.
-Shouldn't we help her fight?!- Pyrrha exclaims worriedly as she looks at her companions and the succubus, to return to her companion Nora in front of those demons. That before all predictions are taking a lot of distance from apparently being taking distance, until one throws a fireball in which Nora rolls to dodge it and be in front of the responsible. To then grab him by a shoulder and a leg, and lift him to the highest point to then with great force break him in half as if it were a sheet of paper.
-We should do it, but... I have my doubts- Lilith sees how Nora throws herself towards an Imp to knock him down and after giving him several punches to the face, hit him with one that blows his head -It seems that Nora has him under control, added to the fact that she has a Power Stone in her hand that she hasn't used yet.
The harlequin summoner looks very distressed as his summoned demons are being horribly massacred by a human who is not even an adult, to make matters worse, replicating almost perfectly the mudus operandi in how he applies his brutal executions, he is almost perfectly nailed to how the Doom Slayer did when he was in the middle of the demon invasions lurking everywhere -Do you think this is going to stay here, human?! I have a whole arsenal of very powerful demon summoning! That will make you pee on yourself and beg for mercy! - He raises his scepter that shines brightly.
From the ground a whole series of circles with the satanic pentagram emerge again. In an abysmally larger margin than the first time, and this time it materializes again larger in terms of the number of summoned demons. Showing many more Imps, but also several different types of demons like a more traditional one in its appearance of having two bull horns and goat legs with bright yellow eyes but with strange pink skin similar to a pig. Some flaming skulls that have demonic horns on the sides of the skull. And finally some red demons that look more like red meatballs with a single eye, without arms or legs but with a big mouth where they show their intimidating teeth.
-Great, many more victims to kill- Nora wipes the blood on her hands by taking off her fingerless gloves. And adopts a boxer stance with a defiant smile.
-Imps! Pinkies! And Cacodemons! I order you to kill that human! - He points to the enemy human.
In tune, the newly summoned army of demons launches into the attack and the girl, still in her frenzy of violence, responds in kind, dealing strong blows to one or another Imp, knocking down several and managing to kill two with direct blows to the head, but with the Pinkies things start to get difficult due to their great strength and resistance. She barely manages to kill about two with brutal stabs to the eyes, and the Cacodemons with her energy rays from a distance…
-Aaahhh!- Nora is thrown a few meters after receiving an energy projectile from one of the demons. Meanwhile, a Pinky opens its big mouth to bite one of her legs, but the girl reacts by stabbing one of its eyes, and seeing how her leg is bleeding from the bite along with seeing the horde of demons surrounding her -Okay, time to get tough- she takes out the Power Stone and raises it upwards.
POWER CHANGE!
The green gem explodes in a large white light that when it goes out, Nora shows her new transformation that can be summed up as a mechanized Valkyrie with a remarkable silver helmet that looks more like a modified version of a fighter pilot helmet with that gray visor that covers the eyes leaving the nose and mouth visible. She has a silver armor mesh with phosphorescent pink edges in neon tones. Plus a red heart painting between the busts and semicircular pink shoulder pads with slightly enlarged gray edges that on the right shoulder pad has a gatling machine gun, along with silver gauntlet bracers and that shows the pink body stocking that it wears inside and robust almost square forearms have cannons on top.
Behind the chest there is a pair of transparent white wings in a holographic form that cover two two-piece rocket boosters each. She wears a pair of silver boots with pink edges and drills on the knee pads, they have high and pointed heels. Whose large five-centimeter soles are actually an advanced anti-gravity system.
-Nora Valkyrie: War Machine Mode Activated- Nora spoke in a mechanical tone, almost as if she had become a gynoid, while her visor scanned all the targets in front of her -Data collection: Imp, Pinky, Cacodemon… Demons summoned from hell. Scanning potential threat analysis… Results: 100% Insignificant- She put her arms in front and the machine gun adjusted to aim -Priority: Exterminate all demons.
Immediately the forearms and the machine gun opened fire at will, resulting in an overwhelming rain of plasma rays that destroyed, exterminated and disintegrated every being from hell that received even one of the violent charge of destructive energy that the mechanized Nora was exerting. After almost 30 seconds, she reduced the entire horde of summoned demons to nothing and gave a ceasefire to continue scanning.
-Processing demon rate: 99% of demons eliminated- She slowly turns his head to inspect the surroundings while the computer in his helmet offers him all the data it collects -Activating heat vision- suddenly her vision changes to ultraviolet where she sees some orange figures almost 30 meters away with being his teammates plus the succubus, who after seeing between the trees -Enemy demon located.
-Do you think this will stay like this?! - exclaimed the surviving demon -I will summon the heavy artillery.
Again numerous pentagrams appear throughout the area, which when exploding, many more Imps, Pinkies and Cacodemons emerge than the last time. But two new types of infernal demons are added. Among them a morbidly obese being that has two cannons for hands, another is a kind of big-headed demon that lies in a robotic body in the form of a mechanized spider.
-Mancubus and Arachnatrons! I order you to go on the attack and exterminate that human as soon as possible!
After the order was issued, almost a small portion of the forest was transformed into a thunderous battlefield in a rain of fireballs, energy and plasma rays. Even destructive missiles burning everything they touch as large explosions and charred earth spread throughout the area. All this wave of excessive violence in the direction of a human wrapped in a large cloud of smoke that when it ended, that same human is seen totally intact by all the lead directly to the face that she received.
-Percentage of damage suffered. Less than 5%, Mjolnir invocation process- She raises his right hand and in the middle of the forest the Mjolnir hammer comes out in an overwhelming manner that in the middle of its path pulverized Imps, Mancubus and Arachnatrons in an electric shock wave that charred the bodies. Once the hammer is in the hands of the Valkyrie -Mjolnir upgrade process- the hammer begins to receive an electric current from the girl -Update at 5%, 25%, 69%, 97%, 100%. Update completed.
The Mjolnir ends up exploding in a flash of light with a sudden change of appearance, starting with two engravings of a ram on the sides. And the maces at both ends enlarge into a dark gray square with slightly sunken edges, while the handle becomes a little more robust and covered in black leather with slight undulations to make it easier to hold in the hand.
-Target Scan- she looks through her visor at all the demons that are continuously attacking her and takes out the total calculations -540 confirmed targets. Activating Ragnarok mode.
The updated Mjolnir begins to open the pieces of the mace and handle mechanically, until forming an imposing futuristic-looking rocket launcher-type cannon fused with a Nordic spear. Its spike is a pink crystal.
-Ragnarok Shot Activated- by pulling the trigger the spike generates small pink electrical charges that begin to create a small sphere of energy the size of a ball, and begins to grow until it is the size of a cannonball. When fired, such a charged energy bullet arrives in the center of the horde of demons.
FLASH!
The energy bullet explodes in a huge burst of blinding light that floods the entire area of almost a kilometer away where the entire army of violent demons resides... or rather resided. Because in the middle of the light all the bodies of the demons remained motionless. And when the great light ends, such bodies are shown completely charred from having suffered strong nuclear radiation or a powerful chemical. After five seconds, all the charred bodies disintegrate in large explosions.
From the distance where the rest of the JNPR team and the suicubus were, they look with their jaws on the ground and their eyes wide open at the entire uninhabited wasteland in the blink of an eye. Courtesy of Nora in her transformation by the Power Stone.
-In... incredible- Lilith expressed, impressed and at the same time nervous of what she witnessed -It is fascinating and terrifying the level of destruction that one can achieve with a Power Stone in use.
-Yes… I agree- the leader of the JNPR nods, equally impressed and nervous -But… I think the scary thing would be how Nora would look afterwards.
-By all the gods, I beg you that Nora does not turn into a complete nightmare- Ren prayed with great fear of what his childhood friend will become.
Nora, looking stoically at the area where the explosion occurred, sees with her visor some green souls in that same place. In more detail, they appear as the souls of the same demons that roam the world of the living -Soul Extraction Mode Activated- she opens her mouth and begins to suck in air as if she were a human vacuum cleaner. The souls of the exterminated demons are being sucked straight into Nora's mouth.
-Mmph? What is she doing? - asks Pyrrha, confused by the act her teammate is doing -I think I shielded something about soul extraction. What does that mean?
-It can't be!- Lilith screams in shock and falls sitting down looking terrified at the girl under the state of the Power Stone -Nora… Nora… She's devouring souls. She's devouring the souls of all the demons she killed.
-Nora is devouring souls?!- Ren exclaims, equally shocked by the revelation, who, between intrigued and worried, asks -What does it mean that Nora is devouring demon souls?
-Absorbing demon souls could give Nora greater power. And even significantly increase her Aura reserves to abysmal levels- she stands up looking worried at Nora -It's possible that unlike Jaune and Pyrrha, Nora becomes three or even 10 times stronger when the effect of the Power Stone has worn off.
-10 times stronger?!- Jaune exclaims with his pupils shrinking in fear, then turns to look at his partner -Just for having devoured souls. It's scary just knowing it.
With Nora, she shuts his mouth -Soul Extraction Completed. Starting status update: 5%, 10%- from the helmet's visor, the percentage of the update is displayed processing until reaching -Update completed, diagnosing general state of increased power. Physical strength and resistance: 50 Megatons of raw power. Speed: Higher than Mach 30. Aura levels: Higher than 1500 Megawatts. Making comparisons of Previous State: 7.7 times stronger than a few moments ago.
Hidden among the trees is the harlequin demon looking between fear and frustration at how his army of darkness was reduced to absolute nothingness. In an act of desperation -You... You! Miserable human! I will show you the most terrifying demon that I can summon with all my power!- He raises his scepter shining in an intense red -Go Cyber Demon! Enter the battlefield!
Once again on the ground you can see a red circle with the Satanic pentagram in a sinister glow, which unlike the others is much larger in size, covering more than 10 meters in length. When the crimson glow of the pentagram explodes, a colossal monster comes out, a kind of demonic minotaur with a pair of pointed black horns, red eyes, beige skin and very muscular. Its large size is estimated to be over 10 meters tall. It also stands out for its striking cybernetic prostheses such as the rocket cannon on its left arm, and a robotic leg on its right leg. All of this emphasizing a nightmare monster capable of destroying entire armies.
-My God! That monster is huge! - Jaune shouted, taking a step back, intimidated by the great demon.
-With that size, it could destroy Beacon Academy with great ease- Pyrrha mentioned, looking frightened.
-Oh no! It's a Cyber Demon! - Lilith exclaims, very alarmed at the summoned demon -If Nora loses the effect of the Power Stone now, we must intervene as soon as possible to get rid of that gigantic demon.
-We will help right away- Ren positions his hands to his left to do -Hadou-Ken!- to launch his ball of concentrated energy directly at the Cyber Demon's face, but -It didn't work!- he observes how he receives said attack and remains intact and does not even flinch. To make matters worse, the Cyber Demon turns his gaze towards where the JNPR team is by pointing his left arm.
-Target scan. Name: Cyber Demon. Threat Level: High Priority- at the moment that the demon fires its destructive rockets. Nora gets in the way of flying with her propulsion wings and uses her own hands to block the explosions of the projectiles -Enemy attack canceled. Activating Einherjer Mode.
The Ragnarok Lance changes its appearance again, with the lower part of the lance splitting into two pieces that extend to produce two caterpillar-type rails for ground movement. In the middle is a huge rectangular platform with a large hydraulic tube. The upper part where the pike is is detached and divided into several pieces to form a mechanical torso that imitates the appearance of a Viking warrior with a robotic touch. Highlighting the head that imitates a Viking with a long blond beard, a Viking helmet with two horns, yellow eyes. And robotic hands that in the left one carries a circular shield with a pickaxe in the center, and in the right a large axe almost a meter long.
The Cyber Demon sees the robot Viking in front of him and without further ado fires several of his rockets to destroy the enemy, but the Viking robot uses his shield to protect himself from the projectiles and his yellow eyes begin to glow. Then he runs with his axe ready for combat to cut the gigantic demon. And a fight begins where the robot attacks with all his might and attacks with his axe, while the demon does his thing by giving some punches and kicks along with firing his rockets. Until the Viking robot manages to cut off his left arm, making the demon scream thunderously in pain and grab his mutilated arm, to attack and make a charge.
The robot's eyes shine again and he opens his mouth to launch a series of missiles directly at the Cyber Demon, which is immediately overwhelmed by all the continuous missiles until...
KA-BOOM!
It ends up exploding from all the accumulated damage and the remains of its body spread throughout the area in a display of blood, guts, mutilated limbs and robotic parts everywhere.
-Activating Soul Extraction-Nora opens her mouth again to suck the soul of the gigantic demon that was just exterminated, as well as sucking up all the parts of its body that were scattered on the ground. -Extraction Completed. Status Update: Physical strength and endurance: 60 Megatons of raw power. Speed: Greater than Mach 40. Aura levels: Greater than 2000 Megawatts- she looks at the Viking robot. -Activating Mjolnir Mode.
Suddenly, the Viking robot begins to mold its parts to end up compacting into the hammer Mjolnir, which flies towards being held by the hand of its original bearer. While it begins to glow in a faint white…
-It's time- Lilith watches in alert as Nora glows white and moves forward to fly as high as possible into the sky. To witness first-hand how the great flash occurs with the Power Stone rising high into the air, managing to calculate the right moment to grab it and descend back to the surface -You won't get away from me.
The rest of the JNPR team run to see how their partner is after having completed the transformation, Ren being the first to ask very worried -Noras, are you okay?
-Of course I am fine- Nora smiling shows her right fist -I feel much stronger, faster and with much more intelligence.
-Mmm? How is it that you become stronger and smarter? - Pyrrha asks very surprised -Is it because of using the Power Stone?
Nora nods and -That's right, but also thanks to the souls of all the demons I devoured- her gaze begins to darken while she maintains her innocent smile.
-I see- Jaune swallows while showing a forced nervous smile and sweat appears on his cheeks -And what did those demon souls know?
The pupils of Nora's eyes shine in contrast to her darkened gaze -They knew very well. Just like eating freshly made pancakes, they taste like hate, evil, killer instinct, sadism, screams of agony and fear for their lives... Not only did my Aura increase, but I acquired her knowledge of Makai, magic and science- she activates her pink Aura where it turns into a dark flame that in several parts you can see what appear to be faces formed by the girl's smoky Aura. It almost seems that those skeletal faces are screaming in pain -I feel like I now have the power to make all of Vale disappear effortlessly.
-That's impressive Nora- Ren expressed, looking nervously at his friend, at the same time as those faces that form the girl's Aura. Just seeing them alone froze his blood from the feeling of terror they emit when seeing those demonic faces making disturbing expressions of agony.
Likewise, Jaune saw those faces form in the middle of Nora's Aura, who nervously asks -Nora... Why? Why does your Aura show strange faces?
-Really? - Nora looks at how the pink smoke of her Aura shows those deformed faces -Maybe it's because my Aura hasn't digested all the souls I devoured until they are completely assimilated- frowning a little, she concentrates her Aura on becoming a large pink flame, and such faces begin to appear more frequently. Until they hear themselves scream in suffering -This accelerates the process.
Jaune and Ren were pale as ghosts with wide open eyes, while they watch disturbed as Nora's Aura shows those demonic souls being tortured, until they slowly disappear with only the Aura in an intense pink flame... which they could only think in synchrony -This will be in my nightmares.
-I have definitely created a monster- Lilith thought equally disturbed as she looked at those demonic souls in constant suffering in Nora's Aura until they finally disappear.
Pyrrha, for her part, looks fascinated at what Nora did when it was reflected in her Aura. -It's incredible how strong you've become by applying that method.- Suddenly, her gaze darkens as the pupils of her eyes shine in a disturbing contrast. -Do you think I can also devour demon souls to become stronger?-
-Sure Pyrrha, it's quite simple to do,- Nora nods very calmly after turning off her flaming Aura, then hearing someone's footsteps approaching. She turns to look with a half smile. -And speaking of demons.
Between the trees, the harlequin demon appears very frustrated -I admit it, you are very strong. You defeated my entire army of demons that I could summon, and I no longer have the power to summon more. I will leave, and when I return from Makai. They will feel the terror of my black magic- suddenly Nora appears behind him, moving at great speed, as if she had teleported and the demon turns to look very surprised -What?!
-Oh no, you will not run away from me- taking advantage of the surprise factor, he grabs the demon by the neck and lifts him up -Not without giving me all your magical energy- with his pink Aura in a dark tone he begins to drain the demon's vitality.
-Aaaahhh! Please! Mercy! -Aaaaahhhh!- the demon screamed for mercy as little by little you could see in great detail how his body began to thin at a great speed until it reached an anaerobic aspect while his vital energy was being sucked out. Until he was left like a dried-up mummy and how the flesh of his body evaporated until he was a complete skeleton that fell to the ground face up with his jaw open.
Lilith couldn't help but look terrified at what Nora had just done, and for a moment she looked back at Jaune and Ren who had the same look of having witnessed something horrible. Contrary to Pyrrha who looked with a long smile and with her eyes shining with emotion -Pyrrha... Is everything okay at home?
-Aaahh... That felt good- Nora said very satisfied with the murder she committed. And she looks with a smile at her team -Hey guys, are we going to continue training to become stronger?
-Nora please, teach me that technique you made to drain vitality from monsters- Pyrrha asks very excitedly -Does that allow you to restore Aura?
-Yes Pyrrha, it recharges Aura and increases the base amount- she looks at her leader and her friend -Guys, do you want me to teach you how to steal life from demons and devour souls?
-No thanks! - Jaune and Ren exclaimed in unison with a look of terror in their eyes.
To be continued...
