Lucifer kept spamming dark lances at Rudra and while Rudra was able to dodge a few and deflect a few, an endless barrage of tier 5 spells was too much for him to handle.
The concentration needed to continuously move at such high speeds with absolute precision was very hard, and it was only because of his relentless training with Raphael that had expanded and strengthened his mind that Rudra could actually keep up with such an barrage without loosing focus.
'Is his mana fucking endless? It just won't end' Rudra thought as even after Lucifer had spammed nearly a thousand dark lances he showed no signs of slowing down.
This was a big shock to Rudra as even with his current massive mana pool the maximum amount of tier 5 attacks he could dish out would be 20 at most, which was nothing compared to what Lucifer was doing.
Eventually Lucifer unleashed a sequence of dark lances that was too fast for Rudra to dodge or block as one of the javellins pierced one of Rudra's thighs as a splitting pain spread down Rudra's body.
-340,000
" Ugh! " , Rudra grunted with pain but thankfully he was currently flying and not using his feet to move around which was why his loss of mobility due to his feet being injured did not really slow him down otherwise the next barrage would have seen him become minced meat.
Rudra's recovered HP fell back into a dangerous red color once more and it seemed as if Rudra was slowly being backed into a tight corner. One critical hit or two normal hits and it would mean game over for Rudra.
Despite the brilliant fight that he had fought against Lucifer till this point, in the end it seemed as if it was still not enough to slay the devil.
***********
( Meanwhile Karna)
For a long time, Karna felt uneasy in watching Rudra fight against Lucifer as he was just spectating in a distance.
It was not like karna or the other elites did not want to fight alongside Rudra against Lucifer, however when just their eyes had trouble following the attacks of the devil, they seriously doubted if they had the necessary speed to react to dodging a single move before they died a pointless death.
However, when Rudra's leg got impaled, something inside Karna snapped as he looked at the red HP bar of his guildmaster.
" ENOUGH! , Elites for how fucking long are we going to be these spineless worthless scum who depend on the guildmaster to do all the heavy lifting?
He has carried this guild and all of us on his back for the past ten years, atleast in his last fight as the guildmaster I want him to fight amongst his brethren as a part of a guild instead of a solo fight.
Worst come worse the devil will kill us all before we even have a chance to blink. But i would rather die by the guildmasters side fighting like a man, rather than stand and gawk at his magnificence from a distance.
I am going to go and kill that tier 5 demon general there , and then going to tear down the other one before going to help the guildmaster fight Lucifer.
Those of you who have the balls to fight with me, follow me. Those who don't , well keep gawking all your lives ".
Saying so Karna unleashed his sword and immediately he heard about a dozen swords being unleashed as Neatwit beamed towards him with a wide smile.
The two tier 5 demon commanders standing were immediately alerted as they glared at the impudent tier 4 humans who dared to challenge them.
" Want to die, humans? ". The tier 5 demon commander looked down on the trash humans who were dating to break the mutual ceasefire, however Karna did not care as he said " No, we want to kill you! ".
The elites charged and the two demon commanders returned the fire.
Beelzebub was lost for a while but soon the hazy expression on his face was replaced by an determined one as he too joined the battle as 7 elite generals and Beelzebub took on one of the enemy demon commanders.
The other demon commander wanted to charge towards Karna who was rushing towards him with his great sword extended, However he felt a firm grip on his shoulders that did not allow him to move a single inch as the demon commander turned back to face the person holding him with an angry expression.
However when he finally turned his angry eyes turned into teary ones in an instant as a ear piercing scream came out of his mouth as waves of unimaginable pain rolled through his body.
" Quite juicy big balls you've got there my boy " Jhonny said with a calm expression on his face as he squeezed the demon commanders nuts firmly until they cracked and bled.
The demon commander wanted to curse but there was no wind left in his chest anymore as he struggled to gasp for air, much less to utter words.
A split second later a sword passed through the demon commanders neck as a thin line of blood Splurted over Jhonny's face who frowned slightly.
The head of the demon commander rolled over to the ground dead as his dead eyes still reflected the deep pain his body was in a moment before his death.
Karna had swung his sword with all his might and decapitated the demon commander with the assist of sir Jhonny and he looked very proud about it.
However Jhonny just said " Keept it tidy next time boy , i don't like the metalic scent of blood in my old-age".
Sighing and opening and closing his palms Jhonny looked at the demons decapitated body and looked at the mangled manparts with a satisfactory smile as he said " I wonder what Lucifer's balls would feel like ? ".
He had spoken it very softly and only Karna was able to hear this, however the very thought sent a chilly shiver down Karna's spine as his body trembled just to think about that scenario.
