Last Shelter Online

Still not enough. The massive explosion alone was not enough to destroy Sathanas. It only managed to push him five metres away, without knocking him over. With blood gushing out of his face, which was covered in wounds from the blast he received, Sathanas grinned, showing off a row of sharp teeth.

Noah still couldn’t believe what he had seen. He clenched his trembling fists. He felt he was still far from perfect for not being able to defeat Sathanas in one blast, even though he had been training for days and hiding it all this time.

Meanwhile, Hiro would not give Sathanas time to react. He knew that the demon king had the ability to regenerate the HP, and he didn’t want that to happen because it would only make Noah’s ultimate skill become useless. However, Noah’s attack managed to reduce Sathanas’ HP by half and seriously injured him.

Whoosh!

[Awakening Sword Combo Skill]

Splatt! [Critical Hit Combo -25050]

Splat!! [Hit Combo -13410]

Hiro continued swinging his sword mercilessly at Sathanas, who was pushed back until the demon’s back hit the ship’s wall quite hard. However, Hiro still hadn’t finished his combo skill to the max.

Blood spurted out onto Hiro’s face and body, flooding the ship’s floor. The greenish-coloured blood smelled more fishy than normal blood.

Splatt! [Critical hit combo -109970]

“Unique skill.”

The vampire’s Blood-Eater flashed a purplish glow on its blade again before it slashed deeply into Sathanas’ chest that had been horribly torn apart.

Splatt!

[Absorbing Boss HP]

But—

Even though Hiro was sure that he had attacked him very strongly and there was no notification that his unique sword skill had been missed, still, Sathanas’ HP didn’t seem to reduce to the left in the slightest. Then, Hiro decided to jump backwards to return to stand with Noah.

Whoosh!

“What happened?” Noah asked in confusion at seeing Hiro suddenly stopped attacking.

“It’s still not the time.” Hiro muttered. He couldn’t take his eyes off of Sathanas, who was kneeling on the floor. The demon lifted his bloodied face and grinned sinisterly.

“Huh? What do you mean?” Noah asked again, still not understanding what Hiro had just said.

“This boss, it is still not the time to be defeated. Just look at his HP. It didn’t reduce in the slightest, no matter how much I attacked him. My Blood-Eater Vampire should be able to finish him off.”

Noah still didn’t understand what Hiro was saying until Sathanas suddenly let out a horrible laugh. It boomed in the hull of the ship.

“Ha ha ha ha.”

“You two are very talented. No one has been able to beat me like this before. Ha ha ha ha.” Sathanas stood to his feet using both legs, as if Hiro’s fierce attacks earlier didn’t affect him at all. He wiped the blood off his face, then licked it with his long, pointed tongue.

“Well, I guess now is my turn.” His voice had turned to a whisper.

Whoosh!

Clank!

Noah was stunned. He didn’t realize when Sathanas had appeared in front of him. If only Hiro hadn’t sped up and swung his sword in front of Noah, then Noah might have been killed by now.

“Nice try, but you have to defeat me first before him.” Hiro managed to stop Sathanas, who was flying at high-speed with his hands that were covered with long curved pointed nails. However, for matters of speed, Hiro was also as fast as the demon.

“Grrrr…” Sathanas pulled his hand that hit the Vampire Blood-Eater,and this time he used his claws to grab Hiro and tear him apart. His eyebrows knit together in anger, annoyed that he didn’t manage to kill his first target.

Clank! Swish! Clank! Swish!

Even though he had a large sword in his hand, Hiro was able to keep up with Sathanas’ speed easily, which made the demon get even angrier. The demon’s face flushed red with overflowing emotions. Meanwhile, Hiro just smiled lopsidedly, provoking Sathanas with an expression on his face.

“You son of Lucifer, you think you can beat me?” Sathanas growled furiously. This time he used both of his legs to kick Hiro, and twist his body to give a powerful impact.

His efforts managed to overwhelm Hiro this time.

“You think you can win against me? Stop daydreaming!”

Whoosh!

Bang!

Hiro copied the movements made by Sathanas and managed to slam his boots hard into Sathanas’ neck, making the demon glare and stop attacking for one second.

Noah, who had returned to normal, had prepared the wind shards to add damage to Sathanas’ body. He aimed for the neck and planned to behead him.

Splat Splat Splat!

[-15000] [-13450] [-14410]

[Windslash]

Blood was pouring back onto the floor, and Sathanas reflexively used both hands to protect his own neck.

Meanwhile, Hiro saw it as a golden opportunity. He dashed towards Sathanas, who was still wailing in pain, while Hiro’s left hand was already outstretched in the air. His eyes flashed with a red glow, and the sigil on the back of his hand thickened.

Scratch!

“Ugh!”

Sathanas vomited some greenish blood into Hiro’s hand, which was stuck in his left chest.

“Demon’s Claw.” Hiro hissed, then pulled out his hand. His nails that had grown drastically were as sharp as Sathanas’ nails. They were covered in blood, which looked more like slime. The nails went back into Hiro’s fingers when Hiro had no intention of using them.

Meanwhile, Sathanas reflexively landed his right hand to grip Hiro’s robe and held on to it.

“The power of the curse.” His murmur sounded more like admiration than fear.

“You have the power of curse from your father. You must be the chosen one.”

Hiro knew that it was a script for an NPC boss, though it seemed like Sathanas’ words contained a hint.

“You, Young elve. You can never evolve into a dark elve if your opponent is a chosen demon. Just give up.” Sathanas’ eyes stared at Noah.

Noah walked over to Hiro and Sathanas.

“What are you talking about, filthy creature? I only came here because I need your blessing.”

Sathanas tilted his head and looked at Noah in confusion.

“My blessing to become a dark elve, isn’t it?”

Noah looked at Hiro and gave him a look that seemed to say, “Has he gone mad?”

Hiro also wondered about the dark elve. He hadn’t found any information about the dark elve so far, as if it was a hidden feature that only certain people could access.

“What does it take to become a dark elve?” Hiro asked curiously.

“You can’t, because you’re not an elve. You have to be an elve first before turning into the dark one. An elve should kill the demon who has the strongest bond to him and take a bath, using its blood as a ritual to be the dark one. The ritual must be done in front of the demon king and use one of their blessings.”
