Marcus Triun - Part 49 ( Marcus/Xylus)

Daemon started to charge towards me, I stood still and held up my sheathed sword to block off the claw attack. The attack was so powerful , Daemon's claws had carved their way into the sheath which made him get stuck. I pulled out my sword from the sheath and kicked Daemon backwards. Daemon's reflexes were fast enough to jump back before my leg would hit him, so he did and I missed. I had to regain my balance and stood steady again with my sword. I threw my helmet off, and slowly walked towards his direction. Daemon held his arms behind his back and returned them with two daggers. Each in one hand. Daemon then quickly started to charge again and he threw both the daggers towards me. I sidestepped to evade one and parried the other one with my sword, still walking towards his direction. Then I stopped at a certain distance, probably fifteen metres away from him and held my sword tight with both my hands. Daemon was slowly walking circles around me. Then he charged, so fast almost like a flash for normal people. I , on the other hand, saw it coming and I jumped to the right, held my left elbow high up the sky and smashed him with my full weight on his back with my elbow. With the power of the blow I pushed myself up , by pushing him down. I was standing steady again, swinged my sword three times in the air and held it steady again. Daemon on the other hand, fell with his body onto the ground and with the double impact from me he even fell harder. He had some trouble getting up, but he still managed to do so. He was angry , you could obviously see that. He then started to laugh, and slowly he was transforming into his real form. A Devil. His body turned all black and his eyes reddier then pure blood. His long white hair was now grown back to a spiky mop of white hair. His body muscles had grown so big, his body armour was crackling of the amount of mass power that was covered underneath it. The chestpiece broke, and Daemon's claws started to grow. He glided up the air and went towards me, he struck me too fast with one of his claws. I had to walk one step backwards. Our faces were covering the opposite directions, side by side. I could see him smile, and then he started to pull in his other claw, other one out, other one in and so on. He kept on charging my body with his claws leaving holes in front and in the back of my body and held me up the sky and threw me towards one of the castle walls. Some blood was slowly pouring down my Demic armour. I had dropped my sword near him, and I slowly started to stand up again. I grinned. I barely felt the pain. Daemon held his claws up in the air, like a X, held them down again to show he was ready to attack again. I slowly removed my shoulderpads and held each in one hand. I'm not going to show my full power to them yet. I must be able to defeat him without my full power. In the back of the shoulderpads there were leather straps , I pulled them over my fists, to create somekind of big two handed shield. Daemon started to run as he noticed something was happening, I stepped with one feet back and one feet forward and with all my power I started to run very fast. Daemon directly tried to stop running again, but he was too late and I had hit him with my "shield" . The blow of the shield directly stopped his running and his muscles to move, probably even breaking some of his bones, and I also had ran him over, making it hard for me to suddenly stop so I had to throw both the shoulderpads away to decrease speed. When I finally stopped I could feel the wounds in my body. Mostly my lowerbody. A mortal would've died. I turned around and saw Daemon slowly standing up, his claws inserted back into his hands and he slowly raised his fists and he turned to me to jab me. I evaded his jab, and punched him in his spine. Then giving him a low - kick which resulted in him falling onto the ground again. Then I kicked him a few times on his face , everytime when he tried to stand up I would kick him on his face. "Enough." I said. And I walked towards my sword to pick it up. "You're strong but ..." I stopped talking, I felt something burning in my left arm. When I tried to look where the source of the pain was coming from it looked like some dark solar powered stream that was coming from Daemon's mouth, it was just a matter of seconds before the stream resulted in an explosion and blew me away. I quickly stood up with my sword in both hands and turned around. Daemon's body was totally deformed. And the dark matter that surrounded him was the only thing letting him keep that body. He was obviously gliding and shooting dark beams from his mouth onto my kingdom. My minions started to notice this wasn't a battle between us anymore and they started to help take him down. Goblin archers started shooting arrows and the Hobgoblins were throwing arrows, and any moment he would come down the Ogres, Orcs and Trolls would take care of him with their clubs , swords and shields. Daemon's body was dissolving into a dark black cloud and a dark spirit reappeared. The spirit had no feet, was atleast seven metres tall and had huge hands and a terrifying face. It was screeching and dark matter was spreading all over the ground. In the heat of the moment my minions were grabbed by skeletal hands that were coming out of the grounds. They pulled them tightly onto the ground so they were stuck. Only the Hobgoblins and Goblins were save on the castle walls. The spirit was trying to absorb the souls from my minions. Enough of this. "Bor Shunk Ka." My demic armoud melted into my body and my eyes turned pure dark green. My hair turned black, very long , atleast until my back and I started to grow monsterly feet and claws. My body muscles were bigger then ever imagined , and the angelic wings I had hidden for a long time reappeared , but as Demonic, fiery wings. I flew up into the air and was charging towards the spirit. This is my Incubus form. I held both hands backwards holding my sword in my left hand, my sword was absorbing power from the moon, thanks to my absorbtion studies. Blue aura was following my sword and body as I was closing in onto the spirit, and then stabbed my sword deep into the dark matter from the spirit. The spirit screeched very loudly, and it slowly started to dissolve. More ! More ! MORE ! I drained power from other sources then only the moon, from the land my minions and from myself. The aura turned white and the spirit totally dissolved , and slowly the dark aura from the spirit recreated a body. Daemon's body. It fell lifeless onto the ground. The skeletal hands that were holding some of my minions slowly let loose of 'em and reached back for the ground. I was still flapping my wings in the air, and looking at Daemon's body. It hadn't move for sometime now and I slowly started to reach for the ground again. I grabbed his body, shredded it into two pieces . I could see his dark, rotting heart still beating. I dropped the lower part and held up the upper body part and ripped out his hart. I could see Daemon opening his eyes, and close them again. I threw the heart on the ground, held my sword high up the air and smashed it down onto the heart with all my power. As soon as I did a dark aura left the heart and flew away. To the south - east. I left the sword there, and slowly walked away towards the command center for the big fight that was coming up. "What're 'ye lazy bastards looking at? Go on, go back to your duties." And so they did.
