Necromancer Of The Shadows - Chapter 375

Chapter 375: Valtair Vs Malphasar (Part 1)
After knowing the real identity of Valtair, Malphasar did not want to fight against him.

Lava demons are more powerful than other demon species, and even among lava demons, Valtair can be considered an anomaly.

From what Malphasar know, just like other lava demons, Valtair used to be a slave. But he never gave up on his freedom and after killing the demons who enslaved him, he escaped from the Gehenna Empire.

And when he returned to the Gehenna Empire after a few hundred years, he was powerful enough to challenge the top-ranking demons of the continent.

Just when Malphasar was thinking of informing Baphomet about Valtair and escaping, he noticed that the temperature around him started to increase.

He immediately looked at Valtair and saw a silver-coloured flame dancing on his palm. The space around the silver flame was wrapping and twisting like it was being affected by the flames.

Valtair waved his hand, and the silver flame spread across space like a thin veil immediately enveloping the two of them.

Just as the silver veil enveloped them, the space inside it distorted, and a separate dimension which was thousands of kilometres big was created inside the veil.

Malphasar’s eyes trembled when he saw Valtair’s creating a separate dimension using his flames.

“Surprise” Valtair smirked when he saw the shocked look of Malphasar, “You see, Inside the shadow realm there is someone who is quite good when it comes to the concept of space. I spent a long time with him learning about the conceptual energy of space.” Valtair said and showed the silver flames again.

“Even though I was not able to master the conceptual energy of space, I still learned how to imbue space energy inside my flames to create a separate dimension.” the silver flame on his palm disappeared, and deep orange flames started to cover his body.

“You can’t leave this dimension nor you can contact anyone before you destroy me.” battle intent surged out of Valtair’s body, “so you better try your best if you want to go out alive.”

Hearing Valtair, Malphasar took out the crystal that he used earlier to contact Baphomet, and found Valtair was right. He can’t use the crystal inside this dimension.

He looked at the large space around him and felt Valtair’s battle intent.

He closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them again, black tendrils like snakes moved inside them.

‘Since I can’t escape nor can I contact master, I might as well fight against him to best of my abilities’

Darkness started to engulf Malphasar’s body as he completely unleashed his aura. The area of hundreds of kilometres behind him darkened and turned into an abyss.

Valtair smiled when he saw Malphasar was not thinking about escaping anymore.

He also stopped holding back, and deep orange flames burst forth from the cracks of his body.

The area of hundreds of kilometres behind him turned into fiery hell, the temperature was so high that even the very fabric of space trembled because of the heat.

“Don’t disappoint me.” Valtair stretched out his hand, and torrents of flames erupted from his fingertips, forming five swirling infernos that danced in the air. With a swift motion, he directed the fiery infernos towards Malphasar.

Seeing five infernos, dark tendrils moved inside Malphasar’s red eyes, and the black energy covering his body surged, forming a giant vortex of darkness, that acted as a shield against the incoming infernos.

The fire infernos reached near Malphasar in an instant, and collided with the dark vortex, causing a dazzling display of contrasting colours and elemental forces.

Even though both Valtair and Malphasar just used normal skills, the result was anything but normal.

The impact of the collision sent shockwaves rippling through the ground, shattering rocks and uprooting trees within hundreds of kilometres of the dimension. The clash of fire and darkness engulfed everything. The sky above them blazed with flames, and the tendrils of darkness move between the fire like giant snakes.

ROAR -!

Rumble -!

Before the impact of fire and darkness can fully settle, a terrifying roar sounded and the entire dimension started to shake.

Malphasar quickly looked up and saw a ten thousand meters long Chimera-type monster with a lion’s head, a goat’s body, and a serpent’s tail looking down on him.

The monster was made of deep orange flames and Valtair was standing above its lion head.

But what made Malphasar’s heart turn cold were the hundreds of fire meteorites which were hovering just above Chimera.

“Try not to die.” Valtair grinned, showing his lava-filled mouth and slashed his hand downwards.

Rumble -!

Just as he slashed with his hand, the entire dimension started to shake and all the fire meteorites hovering above Chimera’s head started to fall down.

“This mad demon.” Malphasar cursed when he saw hundreds of large meteorites that were covering the entire sky coming down towards him.

Dark energy burst forth from his body and turned a large area of ground around him completely black.

His eyes shined with dark light and he raised his hand. “Go”

Just as Malphasar said, hundreds of sharp black pillars rose from the ground and clashed with the incoming meteorites.

Explosions erupted in the fiery sky, creating a chaotic ballet of destruction. One by one, the pillars met their targets, colliding with the meteorites in dazzling displays of light and power. The deafening cacophony of detonations reverberated across the dimension, leaving the air filled with dust clouds and debris.

‘Since he is already dead, his physical body must be very weak’ Malphasar thought, as his eyes flashed.

He controlled one of the black pillars and shot it towards Valtair.

Woosh-!

Valtair was looking at the dust-filled sky when suddenly the dust cloud was torn open, and a sharp black pillar came towards him like a bullet.

Seeing the pillar coming toward himself, Valtair did not move.

ROAR-!

The fiery chimaera he was standing on roared out loud and used its serpent-like tail to destroy the pillar.

When Malphasar saw how Valtair did not dare to clash against his pillar head-on, his belief that Valtair’s body is very weak became even stronger.

‘I will beat the sh*t out of this bastard using my hands’ Malphasar thought and suddenly shot upwards.

Valtair was surprised when he saw Malphasar coming towards him because generally speaking, the physical strength of lava demons is very high, so he can’t understand why Malphasar was trying to fight against him at close range.

‘Well, whatever’ but he did not care too much about it and also disappeared from the head of the chimaera.

Deep orange flames engulfed his body while black energy covered Malphasar’s body.

Both of them appeared in front of each other in an instant.

The fist covered in fire clashed against the fist covered in dark energy.

Boooooommmm-!!!

The world-shattering shockwaves swept the entire dimension.

Crack-!

Amid the explosion, the sound of bone cracking rang out and Malphasar was shot downwards like a meteorite.
