Arpious of the Planes

I swung more and more.

Paimon looked like a rabid animal desperately trying to crawl away as I shattered his boney legs into pieces before devouring them.

Eventually, my purple aura turned into a pair of jaws that began to devour the pieces of bone with me.

And then finally, I reached his head.

FWOOSH

The flames that molded Paimon's expression suddenly burst out, but I blocked it with my own black flames.

"What a monster," Paimon mutters before my aura completely devours his head like it was a treat.

…

I breathed out slowly, creating a black flame that poured from my mouth like liquid.

It coated the remaining bones, melting them into ooze, and I then activated my newly acquired flame.

[Flames of Hell]

Green flames ran from eyes like tears. They slowly dripped from out of my ears and nose… My mouth was untouched, though.

[Assimilation]

[Flames of Hell + Ancient Fire Magic: Amaterasu = Forbidden Magic: Prometheus]

The flames that poured from every orifice on my body suddenly turned into a bright red flame that began to coat the palace we were in.

"Master, I am impressed by your speed," Black says as he appears beside me.

I had used [Forbidden Magic: Hermes] to get all the way here in an instant, which is why my mana was so low… but I still ended up using the unnamed skill.

Snapping once, all the flames were extinguished.

I noticed everybody around me, including my wives, who were burned by my flames.

Their regeneration took care of their wounds, but they still seemed mad at me, so I walked over to them, ready to receive a scolding.

My anger had been extinguished with the flames, but I couldn't rid the disgusting smell that lined my nostrils like pollen in spring.

"Good job," Aika says, patting my shoulder.

"T-thanks," I respond, surprised by their calm reaction.

[HP: 1190/1200  MP: 249/1000  SP: 1000/1000]

Damn, this evolution is a cheat.

"Okay, shall we get this over with?" I ask my wives.

"Wait, Master, I feel a mighty presence towards the throne room of the palace," White interrupts me.

"I noticed,"

"T-then?"

"What do you mean? Of course, we're going to kill them,"

"Wait, Arpious, don't be rash. You need to think about all the soldiers as well… plus, there is the bait which I think we have pushed to its limit… The other humans who we blocked outside the wall have probably made their way back into the kingdom," Kumo says.

"I know… I saw,"

"Then think more carefully,"

"*sigh*... How about my newly acquired servants and I take care of all the strong humans in this palace, and you girls hold back the insane amount of humans currently on their way here,"

"Sure. I don't have a problem with that," Kumo responds as it seems that is what she was already thinking about.

"I don't mind," My other wives say unanimously.

"Wait, who's going to lead all the monsters in this palace?" Black asks.

"Me, of course,"

"As you wish,"

"Also… who are they?" Kumo asks just as they are leaving.

"I'll tell you later. It's a long story… kinda,"

"Okay, see ya. You better not die," Kumo says as she glances towards the end of the corridor where a warrior appeared.

A man clad in metal armor held a long, roughed-up gray sword.

He looked like an ordinary knight. His height was pretty average, and his body didn't seem that jacked, but the amount of pressure this guy exuded was unmatched to anything I have ever seen on this plane.

"Hello," I greet the man as I signal for all the soldiers to go down another hallway.

"Hello," He greeted me back.

I gripped the two weapons in my hand tightly, and the aura that dissipated after my slaughtering with Paimon re-erupted from my body.

"That's quite a monstrous aura you have there," The man says.

"Thanks-"

I was cut off by the man releasing his own aura that seemed to devour mine.

What the hell… This guy… Is he even human?

SHING

In an instant, a sword met my neck, but I was able to just barely deflect it with Raiu, allowing only a large scratch to appear on my cheek.

Holy shit, if it wasn't for [Accelterated Thought Process] and my [Abyss Magic], my neck would've been cut clean off.

The thought process skill slowed it down by just a second and [Abyss Magic] allowed me to see his move just slightly into the future.

"HUFF HUFF HUFF,"

Near-death was close by as the Knight directed his missed swing downwards.

TING

I redirected it with Raiu and swung down with my scythe.

For some reason, my arms felt heavier than usual. Like they were filled with lead or I was trying to move in a swimming pool.

SHING

I missed completely. The knight barely moved out of the way and I was more embarrassed rather than scared.

The knight then took a step forward and kneeled down, grabbing the back of my legs with one arm and swinging his sword with the other.

I raised my knee a bit, cocking him in the chin, but his sword managed to slice off my left arm which held Raiu.

We both than separated as blazing red flames exploded from my scythe.

"That is quite an interesting flame you have there… It looks like it has been forged with life itself,"

"Thanks," I mutter, as I winced in pain.

[Ancient Fire Magic: Ichimei]

My arm began to regrow as the burning red flames turned white and coated my missing arm.

…

I was shocked.

The man didn't have many outstanding skills, but his stats were through the roof… besides his Magic stat.

But that's compared to me.

When compared to others, his stats are to die for.

"What do you think of becoming one of my servants? I'll treat you well," I suggest to the knight, but he just stood there, unfazed.

"I will have to decline your offer," He says before dashing in once again.

It was faster than before.

I managed to get a glimpse of it, but my body couldn't keep up.

Both of my arms were chopped off, causing me to lose both of my weapons but,

"Shouldn't have done the same move idiot," I taunt the man as a grand fire explodes from my body, melting the man's armor and sword.

The surrounding palace began to melt like plastic, just from the tiny amount of fire that exploded from my body.

"This thing is overpowered," I mutter but ducked down after feeling an instant dose of bloodlust.
