Volume 16 Chapter 6 Rank S, Rank A, Hero Candidates, And The Strongest Demon, Part Three
――The battle quickly turned into a defensive struggle.
"Huff, huff, huff..."
Lily gasped for breath as she stepped back, with Martina doing the same beside her.
Margaret, providing support with magic from the rear, seemed to be using up a lot of her magic power.
"He's so strong..."
Lily shuddered.
Metram possessed abnormal combat abilities.
While she has faced formidable enemies before like the Light Dragon King and those with 'Relic Holder' status, Metram's strength was unmatched.
"What's wrong? Didn't your plan work out?"
Metram smirked confidently.
Their initial plan was to create an opening with the demon-specific skill [Demon Slayer Blade] and then follow up with Martina's attack skill, but it completely failed.
Anyway, he's really tough to defend against.
"I see. Those two legendary swords are indeed a threat. They were made to seal the 'King,' after all――"
Metram smiles.
"Unfortunately, those swords can't be wielded by someone with the dark attribute. Even if I kill you, I can't use those swords. What a waste... Truly a waste."
As he speaks, magic power surges from his entire body.
"Ugh... his magic power is still rising――"
Sweat drips from Lily's forehead.
"Well, that's okay. Anyway, it's almost over. I can't keep playing with you forever."
Rumble... Rumble...
The ground shakes.
At the same time,
"Roar!"
With a roar, Metram's appearance changes.
He transforms into a massive beetle-like creature with a tower-like horn, an oval-shaped body, and transparent wings.
It's a form resembling a beetle that's about 10m (33ft) long.
"This is my true form―― 'Demon Body - Augoeides.'
Metram declared.
Lily couldn't move under his intimidation.
It was like being paralyzed.
"Just like high-ranking Dragons can transform into their combat form, 'Dragonic Form,' powerful demons also have the ability to transform into their unique combat form. It's a technique only some high-ranking demons can perform."
Metram, now transformed into a giant beetle, chuckled.
