Rise Of The Anti God

"Aww, you look like you don't recognize me. I am hurt. But then I guess small fries like me named Deathclaw wouldn't enter the eyes of the great Crimson Devil, fufu," Deathclaw giggled.

Damien didn't say anything but continued to look at her as if looking at a dead person, which irked Deathclaw since she felt as if he was disregarding her existence and wasn't taking her seriously at all.

He had never heard of any Deathclaw, but then again, he was not in the mental state to remember about vague things.

Deathclaw slowly sashayed forward as she licked her steel claws, "Do you know that Merlin basically hired me for free? As for why...it's because I want the world to know how powerful I am once I take your head. Once I purge the devil from this world, then the whole world would respectfully bow before me, fufufu. Then those who hear my name will tremble at the very mention of—."

Damien snorted as he fired a bullet at her before she could finish her bubble. His movements were extremely quick enough for an ordinary human to be unable to react.

But just before the bullet could hit Deathclaw's head, she suddenly disappeared from the spot and zoomed to the side, easily dodging the bullet.

"Speedster…" Damien mumbled as he felt that this was a headache indeed since without his powers, it would be hard to deal with someone as powerful and troublesome as her.

He tightly gripped his sword as he perked his ears as he maximized his senses since he would have to rely on them to have a chance at taking her down.

Nathasia felt her heart pounding against her chest as she saw how fast Deathclaw dodged that bullet and wondered how they were going to defeat someone who moved too fast to be tracked by naked eyes.

Feeling anxious, she raised her pistol and aimed at Deathclaw, who seemed least bothered and instead amusedly smiled as she said, "Fufufu, who is that little kitty behind you, devil? I take it that she is your little girlfriend? Awww, how sweet. Maybe I should play with her before you and show how beautiful her blood is before I play with you, hm?"

Damien could see that this Deathclaw woman was a sadist and someone who loved to toy with her targets before killing them. However, he was in no mood to indulge, and it was either do or die for him, and he seemed least bothered about her threatening Nathasia.

Deathclaw noticed how the cold look in Damien's eyes didn't ripple even when she mentioned killing Nathasia and felt that she might have misunderstood some things and giggled, "Oooh, I see. Poor kitty, it seems like your master does not love you. Tsk, tsk, it seems like I won't be getting any fun by killing you."

*BANG!*

Nathasia squeezed the trigger since she could not contain her nervousness any longer. But the bullet again missed as Deathclaw dashed sideways.

She pinched her lips as she said dusted her shoulder, "I guess I will have to take care of this naughty kitty first."

Nathasia's eyes widened when she saw Deathclaw disappearing from her sight and felt a burst of air hitting her face and felt a kick on her chest.

"Aaah!" Nathasia cried out as she was sent flying backward since Deathclaw was too fast for her to react. Blood trickled down her lips as her back hit against the wall, and she collapsed on the floor.

"Fuck!" But Deathclaw had to stop her follow-up attack as she looked at her thighs with widened eyes to see a bloodied slash.

She turned around with a look of disbelief to see blood dripping from Damien's sword.

"How the fuck…you are unable to use your powers, then how..." Deathclaw mumbled as she finally felt a little apprehensive of Damien while before she was confident that he was unable to use his powers for some reason.

She had been observing him the moment he barged into the mansion grounds and just as she speculated, he didn't use any of his powers at all but instead relied on distractions and guns to fight his way in when before he merely had to use his hands to even take down an army.

She also had enough guts to test it again when she tried to provoke Damien and even the girl behind her through her words to see if he was going to use his powers to try and kill her.

But instead, he used his gun to fire at her, which supported her speculations that she was indeed right.

She chuckled dryly, "So even a powerless devil still got some moves, huh? I guess I should be more careful."

Even though she said it in a casual way, Deathclaw felt that she shouldn't take him lightly anymore since even if he couldn't use his powers, he still had inhumane skills.

Damien, however, was feeling frustrated that he wasn't able to cut her femoral artery and missed it since she was too fast.

He had relied on his hearing senses to track her movement through the disturbances in the air and cut her leg. 

But still, it was not a serious wound and looked like a superficial one which would hardly impede her speed.

Damien took a steady stance as he readied his sword to react against her next move quickly.

Deathclaw smiled as she also stretched her legs to dash towards him.

*Whoosh!*

The air whistled as she zoomed towards Damien. Still, contrary to Damien's expectations, she suddenly changed her direction mid-way and instead began to move around Damien in a zig-zag manner to throw off his senses. 

Indeed as she expected, Damien was finding it hard to keep up with her movements and began to turn his head around, trying his best to find an opening to slash at her.

"Take this, devil!" 

But she was too fast, and Damien got kicked in the back and was sent flying before crashing on the floor as he rolled a few times. However, he never let go of his sword and quickly got up with a grunt.

"Too slow!"

But just before he could stand straight, he heard her words of ridicule as he felt a fist smashing against his face.

"Ugh!"

Damien was thrown sideways by the force of her punch and crashed against a painting on the wall.

Nathasia had come to her senses by this time and had her eyes go wide upon seeing Damien being thrown around like a ragdoll by the super fast Deathclaw.

"Not so powerful are you now, devil?" Deathclaw mocked as this time she used her claws to make a long slash at Damien's chest.

"Ugh!" Damien grimaced as her claws ripped through the skin of his chest, much to Nathasia's horror.

It seemed like he had no chance of taking her down with her moving so fast. And so Nathasia decided to subtly take her gun and kill her before she could hurt Damien any further.

But still remembering how guns were useless against Deathclaw, Nathasia's eyes became determined as she decided to do something else that had a good chance of taking Deathclaw down.
