After the appearance of this mysterious man, the intense battle suddenly came to a halt. Even someone as hotblooded as Mercus calmed down as he was able to feel a lot of danger from this man. Alessia kept her sword pointed toward him and got ready to go all out.
Seeing how cautious everyone being, the man laughed in a frivolous manner and said in a very irritating tone of voice.
"Oh my, oh my. No need to be so tense. It's useless anyways. Now that I have revealed myself, this whole little battle thing is already over. Fufu. Now I just need to think about who I should keep alive and who I should kill off."
The way he spoke was very insulting and it made everyone extremely irritated. But at the same time, his words also made a chill to run down everyone's spine. From his words it was clear that this man did not care about anyone present in this battlefield including several S rankers.
This man was concealing his level so no one was able to properly judge how strong he actually was. There was a very little chance for him be a demigod as they normally could not stay in this world for long. So most likely he was legendary powerhouse with level above 350.
After reaching the S rank, normally the speed of progression would go down drastically but with how long lived demons were, many of them still managed to reach the legendary ranks. So this rank was not very rare in the Demon Continent where leveling up was much easier with the presence of many strong beasts and monsters.
So there was a very high possibility that this man was really a legendary powerhouse. And if that was truly the case then all the people present here were in grave danger as no one here could match a legendary powerhouse.
After understanding how dire the situation was, Mercus looked at the simple charm hanging in his chest and again focused on the man. Even in this situation he was not very worried. All the high and mighty leaders of the city had ruled over it for years and all of them had some tricks up their sleeves. Mercus was not different.
The same was true for Alessia. But the reason for her confidence was different. She knew that her big sis Elena was here, so no matter what, they all would be safe. So instead of backing down, Alessia decided to confront the man.
"You talk big for a coward who was hiding in the dark for all this time. I knew that demons were supposed to be brave and battle hungry who never back down from a fight but from your behaviour it looks like that is not the case. Or I thing most likely you're not a true demon at all."
Alessia had not really put any complicated thought behind what she just said. She wanted to see if she could rile up this man but her words had a very unexpected effect. So far this man looked very unbothered and carefree but as soon as Alessia told him that he was not a true demon, immediately the atmosphere around him changed.
His carefree and unbothered attitude was gone and was replaced by fury. He was so angry that even his level concealment almost came undone giving everyone a sense of how insanely strong he was. It looked like Alessia's words had hit a really sore spot for this man.
"You stinky bitch, die."
He was so angry that his irritating way of speech was gone, replaced by a shout of fury. He without a second word, immediately attacked Alessia with murderous intent almost freezing the surrounding. This man had very long metallic nails equipped on his hands and those nails directly went for Alessia's throat.
His speed was extremely fast and Alessia was just barely able to keep up with it with her eyes. But her own agility was no where good enough to keep up with it. So there was no way for her to dodge. But there was no need for that anyway. That was because as now the lives of her cute little sisters were in danger, the strongest person present there was about to move.
...
Just as the man's metal nails were about to reach Alessia, it was suddenly stopped a few inch away from her. As for what stopped it, it was a single finger of a devestatingly beautiful hand. The metallic hand looked powerful and scary while the other hand was dainty and beautiful. But the scary hand was blocked by the dainty hand and it was unable to move even a single bit forward.
It was a very intense time for all the people who were observing the battle. At first they were here mostly to see the clash of two S rank powerhouses. But then suddenly more and more S rankers started appearing. Then even a powerhouses appeared who was most probably at the legendary rank.
That was already insane and the people were almost losing their mind. But then suddenly a heavenly beauty appeared who was able to easily block the attack of the powerhouse who was most probably a legendary powerhouse. Now the people were thinking if they were inside a dream or not as whatever was happening in front of their eyes did not feel like reality.
The man himself was extremely surprised as even he had not expected something like this. He immediately jumped back and attacked Elena again but this time he used a weapon art to boost the power of his attack. But the result was still the same. Even the art empowered attack was easily blocked by Elena's finger.
This made the man to almost go crazy. He was already extremely angry with what Alessia had said. And after his confidence was completely shattered by Elena, he was about to lose his mind. He started to use his skills and arts like crazy and attacked Elena again and again. But Elena blocked all those attacks effortlessly and she did that with a very disinterested look on her face.
Yes, Elena was extremely disinterested in this opponent of hers. Whenever fighting a decently powerful enemy, Elena most of the time restricted herself to be on the same level as her opponent or even lower to have a fun battle. She did it to hone her battle experience even more and because she liked it.
But she had not done that in this incident. That was because this man who was still trying to attack her like a madman was not good enough for that treatment. This man had not reached his current level of power with effort or hardwork. Even talent was not the reason for his strength.
Instead he was someone who had grown strong by absorbing various kinds of evil energies.
His level and stats were high but his fighting experience and techniques were unrefined and crude. So Elena was sure she would not be able to get any worthwhile experience by seriously battling this man.
But still, Elena wanted to see if this man could show her any kind of surprise so she allowed him to attack him while she just blocked and did not fight back. But all she was able to get from this was disappointment. As this man became angrier, the more crude his skills became.
So after her disappointment reached the peak, Elena finally decided to end this game. She lightly kicked the man in his guts and he immediately crumpled to the ground with blood vomitting from his mouth. Everyone had thought that a fight on the level of legendary powerhouses would be so epic. But the battle turned out to be extremely simple. Instead of a battle between high leveled powerhouses, it looked more like a battle where a powerhouse was handling the tantrum of a little kid.
So just like that, with Elena's intervention, the suddenly appearing Legendary powerhouse was easily subdued. So what was going to happen next ?
