Chapter 993: Taken In A Trap
The moment Lenny brought out the Whistle Horn, The Devil king raised a brow at it. Something profound about it was disturbing to him.
Then again, a item like the whistle horn was supposed to be so. After all, it was from a hell beast. but not just any hell beast. it was from Vandora, a special pet of the Morningstar.
Although Hell beasts were considered to be animals of Hell by most people, but those that knew, knew that in Hell, Hell beasts were even considered above Devils. Unless of course, the Devil occupied a special position.
This was the reason that back on earth, Devils always attacked cities that had Hell beasts imprisoned.
The Hell beast could summon Devils from hell with its cry alone.
Lenny had prepared extensively for this trip to Purgatory. One of which was the usages of this tool. After the last time he had used it, it had become a dried up wood.
However, he discovered that power at the Arcane level could help power it back up. Luckily, he managed to reserve a few Arcane pillars just in case of necessities.
One of the instructions that was written on his body, by himself with intact memory was for him to feed the Arcane pillars to the Whistle Horn.
The consumption of the Arcane pillars by the whistle Horn was not an easy process, and for the Whistle horn to gain back all of its power, it would take a longer period of time. Nevertheless, Lenny had been able to help it recover a bit of power.
Which meant that he could use it for one try.
Lenny raised the Whistle Horn high in the air as he sent holy power into it. In attempt to strike the Devil King.
The Devil King saw this. He did not know what that was in Lenny’s hand, but he felt a natural prejudice towards it.
Immediately, he waved his claws tearing against lenny’s body. Blood splashed in the air. However, Lenny was persistent, he brought the Whistle Horn to his mouth and blew into it.
It was loud and terrifying, and for the first time, The devil King felt threatened.
And that was when it noticed it. Its core, the size of a small watermelon, had suddenly disappeared from its body.
However, the moment it noticed this, he screamed, "GET BACK HERE!"
lenny could feel it. Just as the Whistle Horn had tried to steal the core, it was drawn back by the Will power of the Devil King.
For a second, the Core of the Devil King appeared in the air, at just the exact time that lenny’s blood fell towards the ground.
The Devil King waved its hand in the air, and its core, shinny in the air disappeared once more into its own body.
It waved its hands again.
*BOOM!*
Lenny was smacked against the wall. He rolled over to the side, coughing up blood continually.
Slowly, he got back on his feet. However, raising his head, he noticed that the whistle Horn, now back to its dried up form after usage was broken at a corner.
Lenny frowned. That Tool was no doubt done for.
In the distance, the Devil King looked In Lenny’s direction and smirked. "That was close you know. But your in ability to seize such an important moment with an important tool was your own down fall. And now, you will die a miserable death."
He waved its hands, and poison like the wave of an ocean rushed for Lenny.
Lenny was already beaten and bruised. His body terribly wounded, with many parts of it aching as a result of the Poison.
His veins bulged up, red and pulsating at different parts of his body as a result of the Poison trying to wreck havoc within his body.
However, Lenny gritted his teeth tightly, biting down against his lips till he bleed.
he concentrated on the self inflicted pain to keep his eyes open while at the same time, he controlled his cells to expel the poison out of his system.
this was a process that proved quite difficult to do as this was very fast acting poison.
As he stood up, he coughed up blood, Falling back to the ground.
However, the wave from the devil Boss was coming.
Just when it was about to reach, a figure, fast as lightning appeared, grabbing Lenny by his waist and moving him to safety.
She landed upside down on the roof of the cavern.
The devil King looked at her. This was the She devil. She was a Boss of this Dungeon.
"Hmmm! Don’t tell me that you want to steal my prey from before my eyes." He spoke out. However, looking closely, he raised a brow. "...No! that’s not it. You seem to have developed a liking to this one." The Devil King chuckled loudly. "Who could have thought that you will end up Fucking your food. Even for you little one, that is just too much."
His eyes suddenly changed, having a different kind of glow within them, "but if that’s what you wish, I’ll feed on you both. After all, I have always wanted to know what you taste like." He licked his lips.
However, Lenny turned to the She Devil. "You took too long!" He whispered.
"You should be glad I came. I was so tempted to let him have you. But considering the others are dead, when he is done with you, he will most likely come for me next."
Lenny heard this and chuckled a bit, "And here I was thinking you only had muscles in that brain of yours."
She frowned at him, "so how do you want to do this?"
"Don’t worry, I have a plan..." On saying this, Lenny suddenly pushed against the ground, and then with a round House Kick right at the back of her head, he kicked her down.
The force of which was so strong that she fell down like a missile reaching its target, right for the devil King.
However, the devil King dodged to the right.
*BOOM!* the She devil Smashed against the ground.
The Devil King was surprised at this. He smirked, "Sometimes, you devils are even worse than we devils. Backstabbing one that saved your life only seconds ago. You know, if you didn’t look so delicious, we could have actually been close."
On saying this, he waved his hands, and his body slowly dematerialized. "I have noticed that you are not bad a fighter in the After Truth. However, what of the Before Truth?"
"FUCK!" Lenny cursed.
Fighting in the Before truth was not his strongest arsenal weapon. His soul was not in any state that he could combat with any creature in the Before truth.
then again, what was he expecting? This Devil King was a very unique specimen. He was able to feed on a Jin and not die from its poison. rather, he made it his own, and now, he could even use its power in combat.
Coupled with its ever greed to consume, it was a terrifying opponent.
In the Before Truth, the image of Lenny in the eyes of the devil King had totally changed.
His body was terrible mixture of Green and yellow. It looked as if one was trying to envelop the other. This was the cureent state of lenny’s soul.
Also, they were binds on Lenny’s soul. Three of which were fate binds and the last three were Shadow rune binds. These binds were holding back the Purple Flame poison from wrecking his soul into nothingness.
But it was obvious to the Devil king that these binds would not be able to hold for long.
Not withstanding, it was going to devour Lenny whole.
It rushed over, Grabbing Lenny by his soul and then just as he was about to throw lenny into his mouth, Lenny turned his way. His eyes glowing with intelligence.
"Finally, caught you. In the After Truth, You are a problem. But you over estimated your power. After all, you are only at the second Yellow soul level. And in here, you are without your poison."
On saying this, Lenny suddenly smashed against his own chest, releasing the binds holding back the purple flame poison.
However, the Devil King chuckled at this. "It is just poison. It has no effect on..." Its words froze.
Something pulsated with it. It was its core. Something was not right.
Lenny on the other hand, smiled. Back then, when he had used the whistle Horn, he had pretended to want to hit the devil King with it.
Because the Devil king did not know what it was, he had assumed that when Lenny hit him with it, it was going to spell trouble for him. Not knowing that it was a feint.
back then, he had diced up Lenny’s body in defense, spilling Lenny’s blood. However, at the same time, lenny had brought whistle Horn to his mouth and blown into it. This action of his brought the Devil’s core out of its body.
In that split second before it would pull its core back, Lenny, having cellular control of his blood hade used his blood carving a bloody rune on the core.
Essentially, the Devil Boss had taken in a trap.
