Last Shelter Online

Noah fell, kissing the damp wooden floor of the ship while coughing and spewing blood from his mouth. He had been defeated. But, he still couldn’t take it for granted.

“Shit!” he protested, blaming his own abilities.

Hiro stood in front of him. He did nothing, just hoping that Noah wouldn’t be killed so easily. He felt a little guilty for not controlling his last attack and was having fun with it instead.

“What a boring fight,” murmured the thunderous voice. He even yawned very widely without covering his mouth. Hiro and Noah looked at the King of Wrath, and at the same time, the demon suddenly came down from his throne and stood in front of them.

The distance between the top of his head, which had a pair of horns, and the ship’s ceiling was no more than half a meter, even though he had lowered his head to look at Hiro and Noah.

“What if you two fight me?” he suggested in a disappointed tone.

Before Hiro and Noah could respond. Suddenly, the giant’s body was burned by green flames that felt scorching hot. Hiro pulled Noah’s still helpless body away from the flames as his health points continued to decrease drastically.

[-2500] [-2200] [-2170] [-2450]

“Charge.” Noah used the skill to regenerate his HP again because he didn’t want to be killed by the hot flames.

The air inside the ship seemed to boil with the heat of the green flames.

“Damn! I had expected something like this to happen,” Hiro muttered as he stood with his back to Noah. He looked back to check if Noah was still alive or not.

“Prepare yourself,” he said, giving an order.

Blarrrr!

The green flames grew bigger, but the figures trapped within them seemed to have shrunk in size, as if he had just completed a transformation. A young, brown-skinned male figure stepped out of the green flames with his chin raised in a haughty manner. Both of his eyes glowing red, giving an eerie sensation. His gaze was intensely focused on Hiro, who was already standing bravely in a fighting position.

The green flames finally disappeared. And the air was back to normal. However, Hiro and Noah had to deal with Sathanas, who chose to use his human form to fight.

“Attack me at the same time,” Sathanas muttered. Even his voice had changed. Much less intimidating than before.

“Damn… how could he do that?”

Noah was able to get back up on his feet using both legs, but blood was still all over his body.

“The seven demon kings have two different forms. His human form and his demon form. We’ve seen both now. Let’s go, the human form will be much easier to defeat than the absolute demon form.”

Hiro dashed forward to attack Sathanas, who was still not showing his weapon. Meanwhile, Noah knew that he really couldn’t lose in this fight or else he could lose one of his limb. And because of that, Noah used ranged attacks.

“Don’t let yourself die before giving the blessing!” Noah exclaimed as he turned the pages on the Mystic Tome in search of a suitable magic spell that could be used to fight against Sathanas.

Whoosh!

Hiro swung his sword swiftly at Sathanas. However, even with his bare hands, Sathanas was able to dodge all of Hiro’s sword slashes attack with ease, even though he deliberately closed one of his eyes.

In the back, Noah had been using water magic after he had seen that Sathanas used flames just a moment ago.

[Water Cannon]

Noah clasped his hands together, and at the same time, a powerful shot of water came out of his hands. However, instead of dodging the water shot, Sathanas stayed where he was as Hiro jumped back to avoid being hit as well.

And an unexpected thing happened. Sathanas spread his arms and let the water shot struck his chest hard. However, not a single drop of water fell down.

The water was actually absorbed into the body of Sathanas. In an instant, when no more water came, the demon’s body changed significantly. His muscle mass increased and his height increased by five centimetres.

“What the hell?” Noah had no idea that something like that could happen.

“Thank you for the food,” Sathanas muttered while biting his lip, like he had eaten a delicious food. His face showed an expression of ease, even a little red from a blush flickered in his cheeks.

“That’s why he’s on the ship. It seems his true power is water.” Hiro clearly felt stupid for realizing it too late. Just like Noah, he was deceived by Sathanas, who he thought used the power of green flames.

“Or even both. Water and fire. How could that possibly happen?” Noah still couldn’t accept his opponent’s power, which was too impossible for him to defeat the demon.

However, because he was careless, suddenly, from the front, there was something shot towards him at high speed. It was a giant Trident made of water, aiming at him.

Clank!

Hiro jumped at the right time to cut the Trident’s attack that was stuck in the blade of his sword right now. The Trident still didn’t shatter and kept trying to push back Hiro’s sword, aiming for the target that had been marked for it.

Sathanas raised his left hand to control the Trident from a distance. A faint, wicked smile spread across his face.

“Damn!”

Noah tried to use ice magic to freeze the Trident.

[Frozen]

The attempt was successful. The Trident froze, but it remained stuck on Hiro’s blade. And before Hiro could say anything, suddenly the Trident that had been completely frozen let out flames.

Blarr!

And in just one second, its form resembling water had returned to its original state.

“Well, that was a nice combination of water and fire.” Noah actually looked amazed by what he had seen.

“Attack him!” Hiro hissed in a muffled voice. The power of the Trident that rammed to Hiro had almost doubled.

Hiro was right. Noah had to stop the unstoppable attack by attacking the caster.

“I also have a combination of elements that are no less great. Just prepare yourself. You will be the first human to taste my ultimate power.”

The pages within the Mystic Tome flipped very quickly and emitted a very clear sound.

“Ancient magic power emanating from the same core, I call you.” Noah locked his eyes at the unmoving Sathanas. His right hand moved through the air in a circle and created a black magic circle with an eastern dragon’s head engraved in the center.

“The almighty fire and the destructive wind, let me guide you to your enemy.”

[Fire Inferno]

Boom!

The blackish-red flames shot out from within the magic circle, while a powerful whirlpool of wind covered the flames and blended before coming towards Sathanas.

Seeing the enormity of the magic targeting him, Sathanas jumped back and made the Trident disappear.

However, as Noah had said before, he was the one who would give instruction to the fire and wind to tell him the position of the enemy. And quickly, the shot twisted, then struck Sathanas powerfully, and exploded together with him.

Boom! Kaboom!
