Orsius froze for a moment. His aura, the same aura that had been crushing the prison, was completely shut down. No energy came out of him at all.

No matter how hard he tried, it didn't work. It was clear his aura was being suppressed by a much stronger aura… but how was that even possible?

His gaze shook. For the first time… fear appeared in his eyes for a moment.

"Human… w-what did you do?"

Daniel didn't smile. He laughed. A loud laugh that echoed through the whole torture room, shaking the walls, and then

With a single hand movement… the entire world turned black. Glowing galactic streaks flowed through the darkness like rivers made of stars. The torture room disappeared.

The ground, the ceiling, the air… everything was swallowed.

Orsius' eyes widened. He recognized this place. This wasn't something a human could create.

"The Endless Void…?" His frown deepened. This human pulled him into the Endless Void. But how was that possible?

Wasn't this human supposed to have lost his power? Then how? How could he drag a Demon like him into the Void? This wasn't something a low, weak human could do.

A wave of fury and humiliation exploded inside him like molten lava. So all this time… they had been tricked. This human, this weak creature… had pulled him into the Void.

And that could only mean one thing:

This human was at least on his level… maybe even higher.

Orsius took a deep breath. There was no way out for now. If he wanted to return alive, he had to defeat this bastard… right here.

They were inside the Void, and no one was going to know what happened here or what was about to happen. Clearly this human had planned everything and intended to kill him.

If the Heavenly Climber was at their base, he would definitely notice the fluctuations and come help. But right now only three Divine Climbers were in the base, and they couldn't sense any of this.

"Looks like you don't want to surrender… that's fine. I know exactly how to make you." Daniel tilted his head slightly and said.

His eyes gleamed. He had no intention of destroying Orsius. Instead, he planned to erase his awareness and plant a piece of his own consciousness inside his mind.

By doing that, he could use Orsius' body to explore the whole base, get any information he wanted, and even find Lyra's location and a way to steal the Demon King's children.

More importantly, he could check how many powerhouses were currently inside the base and whether he could handle them or not.

Doing something like this was naturally difficult, but not for him. Even though Orsius was strong, he wasn't a threat to Daniel.

"Hmph! Pathetic human, I'll tear you apart with my own hands," Orsius roared.

Inside that endless darkness, Orsius struck first.

He roared and the formless ground under his feet rippled.

The world shook.

[ Infernal Rift Wave ]

A massive wave of hellish energy shot toward Daniel at insane speed, ripping the space around it like cloth.

Daniel leaned his body forward, anchored his feet in the darkness, and punched with lightning-fast speed.

A punch combined with the laws of Death and Thunder. Death energy wrapped around his fist, and silver-purple sparks circled around his arm.

Then—

His strike shattered the infernal wave. The explosion shook the Void.

Orsius gritted his teeth. He stepped forward and attacked with his massive claws.

[ Demonic Bone Crusher ]

A strike that could cut a giant in half.

Daniel instantly turned into a shadow. Even he preferred not to take this hit head-on, because it could still be dangerous.

[ Bloody Shadow Dance ]

His body slid through the darkness. In a fraction of a second, he appeared behind Orsius.

"You're not that fast."

Orsius spun around and activated [ Hellfire Chains ].

Huge burning chains erupted from the ground, trying to trap Daniel.

But Daniel released Thunder energy through his body.

Thunderburst Step

A violent burst of thunder exploded outward, and the chains shattered into dust.

Daniel summoned The Heavens Honor. The blade shined, and the Law of Thunder flowed through it.

"Seems like you're not as strong as you thought, human!" Orsius activated his demonic armor.

[ Cursed Armor of the Deep Hells ]

His skin turned into flaming armor, and darkness spiraled around his body.

"But I have to admit… you're tougher than the other humans."

Daniel smirked.

He rushed toward Orsius. The swinging blade crackled with lightning.

[ Strike of Destruction ]

His blade unleashed the aura of destruction and struck the demonic armor.

An explosion followed, sparks of death scattering everywhere.

Orsius stepped back once. That meant the hit was stronger than he expected.

He roared.

[ Abyssal Howl ]

A sound that shattered a human's soul. A normal human would go insane instantly and kill themselves. This sound was designed to break humans mentally.

But Daniel only closed his eyes for a moment… and then opened them again. His gaze colder than before.

"That's enough."

His eyes glowed—

[ Death Roar ]

A silent but mind-breaking sound born from the depths of Death.

Orsius lost his balance for a moment. His mental focus broke. His movements slowed.

Daniel took the chance.

He jumped, reached the height of Orsius' chest, and—

He struck with a deadly, destructive punch.

Death energy gathered in his fist.

It slammed into the huge demon's chest.

Orsius was thrown across the Void, dragged several meters through the darkness.

His mind was in chaos, unable to believe what had just happened. Had he really been completely suppressed by a human just now?

He , one of the Great Generals,had been crushed by a mere human? Rage and fury flooded his entire being.

Should he use that thing…? No, no, no. If he used it, the Demon King would definitely punish him.

And if he used it, that would mean admitting that this human was stronger than him! That was simply unforgivable.

"What's wrong? Is that all you've got, little demon? I was just about to get serious."
