Shaytan was a freaking beast, and I was about to fight him.

He’d sent some of his daemons down to look for Lumi, but there were still plenty left surrounding us, along with the Correction Officers. However, the drums of war had already reached the mountain base. We could all hear the battle thundering below.

Fiona left Zane to heal on the ground and got up. She brought her sword up, pointing it at the Correction Officers nearest to her. Avril joined her, wearing a confident smirk. They were both itching for a fight, even though they were outnumbered.

A massive shadow passed over our heads. We all looked up and saw Blaze in dragon form as he flew down to greet Shaytan’s daemon armies. That only further aggravated the daemon king. He glanced at his soldiers, baring his fangs.

“Go down there and bring me the blasted dragon!” He barked his order.

“But, Your Grace, these—” One of his guards tried to speak, but Shaytan cut him off with a chilling snarl.

“Get me the dragon!”

They didn’t wait for him to say it again. Within seconds, we were only left with Shaytan and the Correction Officers, who were starting to get restless. I could see the concern on their faces. They were most likely wondering what good it did for them to stick around, when Shaytan had already sent some of his daemons down the mountain to look for the witch.

“We have no use for these outsiders,” one of them muttered. Judging by the insignia on his lapel, I pegged him for a lieutenant, like Cadmus. “We need to find the witch before the daemons!” he added, raising his voice.

They pulled back and followed the lieutenant down the stairs.

Shaytan looked at me, wearing his murderous grin. “Ah, now I have more room to spread your entrails around.”

“I would normally say that I’d love to see you try, but you’re a psychopath with too much power, so I’d rather not tempt fate,” I shot back dryly. “However, that doesn’t mean you’re walking out of here alive.”

I didn’t give him a chance to reply. I couldn’t prolong this anymore, either.

He brought his sword up and effortlessly blocked my first double hit. He then stepped back, smirked, and muttered something—a spell. I froze, unsure of what was going to happen next. He kissed his index and middle fingers, then pressed them against his blade. A nanosecond later, he attacked me.

I brought my swords out in an X to block his hit. His weapon came down so hard, my blades screeched. He grunted and released a pulse from his core. That was the spell. It slapped me hard and threw me backward.

My entire body hurt. I landed on my back.

Fiona and Avril came at him next, as I tried to pick myself off the ground. It was as if every bone in my body had been cracked. Shaytan had certainly learned to make the most of the swamp witch magic he’d collected from Lumi. I’d never seen anything like this, and it worried me.
