Point-of-View: Anarchy/Liling Jin

———————————————————————————

"So, guys, how should we do this? Do we war against all sides, the humans, Deities and Demons? Or do we ally with one of the sides instead?" I inquired with a smirk, looking around for suggestions.

"I would prefer to refrain and stay out of it, this threatens to be quite messy no matter how you approach it," Sighed Dracula apprehensively.

"Come now, old friend, I personally think it sounds quite fun," Responded Count Saint Germaine as he patted Dracula’s shoulder.

"Oh, yeah, that’s the kind of attitude that I like to see!" I grinned appreciatively, giving him a thumbs up.

"I think allying with the Deities and humans could be fun, since they’ll totally be against it but won’t have a choice since they’ll need all the help they can get against the Demons," Suggested Afro with a gleam in his eyes.

"Ahh, that doesn’t sound half bad at all," I nodded in approval.

"Let me guess what the twist is, once the Demons are dealt with, we turn on the alliance, right?" Sighed Wrest dryly.

"Hey, I like that, we’ll definitely be double crossing whoever we team up with in the end!" I grinned with a thumbs up.

"Yeah, I wouldn’t call that a twist, they’ll totally see it coming from a mile away. Not turning on them would actually be the more unexpected twist," Spoke up Arisu.

"Well, you have a point, but...I don’t know, that’s kinda boring," I frowned in response.

"Ohh, I know! We ally with the Demons and then betray them once they start to get the upper hand!" Exclaimed Afro enthusiastically.

"Dude, I am loving the energy you’re bringing!" I smirked with a laugh.

"Have you already forgotten that you killed their ruler? They would never agree to an alliance with you under any circumstances," Pointed out Dracula with an exasperated sigh.

"I could just claim that Satan was the one who gave me his powers before he could be killed by the Deities and Aurora," I countered smugly.

"They would never believe that," He shook his head wearily.

"Yeah, that seems pretty half-assed," Added Lance in agreement.

"Only one way to find out," I stated with a shrug.

"By the way, do you have any new abilities after absorbing Satan?" Afro asked me curiously.

"Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like I have his multitude of various abilities at my disposal. But that doesn’t mean I’ve gained nothing...I now possess all the Elemental Skills, along with his regenerative powers and that Destruction Ray power he had. I don’t have all the other abilities he possessed though," I sighed wistfully.

"Yeah, not sure why you’re complaining, that all sounds pretty damn powerful to me," Chimed in Arisu.

"I guess so, there are hardly any beings that would be a real threat to me now. Would’ve been nice to have obtained a few more cool powers though, that’s all I’m saying," I grinned sheepishly.

"Hey, hate to interrupt, but something just broke through the barrier I set up, and it’s moving fast," Remarked Glenn with a grimace.

Right one cue, one of the walls suddenly got destroyed, chunks of concrete flying in as it crumbled, before I flapped my new wings powerfully to stop the rubble from hitting any of us.

"Hi there, I don’t believe we’ve met. What’s your name?" I greeted the intruder with a smile.

"How vile, for a human to possess the Aura of Lord Satan, I’ll kill you, you human bitch...!" He growled fiercely, a furious gleam in his eyes.

"You know, it’s only polite to introduce yourself before threatening and insulting someone you’re meeting for the first time," I responded with a shake of my head.

Well, even without an introduction, I’m pretty sure I know who he is. His Aura is definitely on the level of the Demons of Sin, and he’s a Fallen Angel. The Sin of Wrath, Belial.

He had long blonde hair that went down to his lower back from behind, with the front tucked behind his ears. He had sharp, raven black eyes, with a tall and slender build.

And as one of the three-...well, now two with Satan dead...-Fallen Angels in existence, he had the signature black feathered wings and black halo, along with a single straight horn on right side of his forehead.

"I do not care how powerful you have become with what you stole from Lord Satan...you are not suited for such power!" He snapped, as he unleashed his Aura with a look of rage.

Damn, Sin of Wrath is right, he’s so angry. Hm, I wonder why? Well, I’m not complaining, I’m game for a fight...yeah, it’ll be a pretty good opportunity to test out my new powers.

"Ever considered taking some anger management classes? Or, you know, therapy?" I smirked, as I responded in kind, unleashing my Aura.

"U-uh, Glenn, get us all out of here!" Exclaimed Wrest in alarm, before portals swallowed up all the others and they got out of the way.

"Die! Unique Technique: Disintegration!" Snarled Belial, as he fired out a rapid blast of energy.

"Here’s your dear Lord’s Destruction Ray," I grinned, as I fired out a blast of my own in response.

As the two projectiles crashed onto each other, they canceled out, before Belial shot towards me with his right fist drawn back and drove it forward as he closed in on me.

I’ve always wanted to try this...right as his fist neared me, I swiftly raised a finger to block it, his fist hitting the top segment of my index finger...and a loud crack echoing out as he broke it.

Ow...that didn’t go how I hoped it would. Still though, I did manage to absorb almost all of the force of his punch, it just made me take a step back to keep my balance...and this little broken bone in my finger, well, it’s already healed. Satan’s regeneration is something else, wow!

"What, is that as hard as you can hit?" I smirked tauntingly.

"Unique Technique: Crushing Fists!" He snapped, before driving his other fist towards my midsection.

I moved my other hand in the way of it, aiming to block the punch with my palm. As his fist struck my hand, my eyes widened as he shattered the bones in it, his punch barely even slowing down as his fist shot forward and slammed onto me square in the middle of my torso.

I let out a sharp gasp as the force of his punch sent me rapidly flying back and crashing through several walls, bursting out of the building and zipping down at an alarming speed, before my body slammed onto the ground, blood bursting our as several bones punctured out through my skin.

Fuck, that hurt like crazy! But I’m already almost fully healed again, the pain fading rapidly. As I then spotted Belial swooping down towards me with his fists balled together, I quickly got back onto my feet and sprang back, his fists slamming onto the spot I’d crashed onto with a devastating impact.

An immense shockwave burst out upon impact, the ground breaking apart as large chunks of asphalt flew out in every direction, the area at the point of impact sinking down into a crater as massive cracks spread out rapidly.

The windows on the buildings around shattered, cracks spreading out across the walls as screams began ringing around all over the place, a slight, amused chuckle escaping my lips as I began to feel giddy.

I then formed a massive Chaos Blast and fired it rapidly at the crater with a smirk, as Belial zipped out of it, the force of his flying blowing away the towering dust cloud that was rising up.

He began to fly away from my blast, but it was too quick to fully evade. He grimace as it destroyed his left arm and shoulder in the blink of an eye, blood gushing out like a fountain before it started to grow back.

I spread out my wings and shot towards him at top speed as his shoulder grew back, narrowly evading a punch before blasting a massive hole through his torso with a sharply expanding compressed Chaos Blast.

As he coughed out blood, a violent energy suddenly swirled around him erratically, I quickly flew back in response before the sphere of energy rapidly expanded, destroying my legs from below the knees as it caught up to me, before I avoided taking on any more damage by putting on a burst of speed to zip away sharply.

This is really fun...the longer this goes on for, the better I get at adapting to this drastic increase in power and speed. It’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed myself this much!

"So, do you have any other tricks up your sleeve, or is this the full extent of what you’re capable of? Because I’m still just getting warmed up, my guy!" I called out tauntingly.

"Your arrogance will be the death of you...," He growled, before snapping, "Regret and repent, foolish human...Unique Technique: Wrath Unleashed!"
