Previous chapter is fixed.
Freed groaned, pushing himself up from the wreckage of the glass table.
Blood poured from his nose, painting the lower half of his face a bright, sickening crimson. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, his manic smile slowly returning, stretching wider than before.
"Oh, this is just great," Freed cackled, picking up his glowing holy blade from the floor. He turned his deranged eyes toward Isa, then back to me. "And what are you? Another one of your dirty Devil friends?!"
He didn't wait for an answer. Freed lunged forward, moving with blinding speed. He brought the holy sword up, stepping heavily into a devastating overhead strike aimed right at my skull.
My Agility kicked in. I didn't try to block. I simply sidestepped, letting the glowing blade slice harmlessly through the air where my head had just been.
As his momentum carried him forward, I drove a brutal, aura-laced punch directly into his stomach.
The air left Freed's lungs in a loud, wheezing gasp. His eyes bulged, and he collapsed onto one knee, clutching his gut.
I instantly manifested my [Bound Sword] in my right hand, raising the heavy Daedric blade high to bring it down on the back of his neck.
But Freed's combat instincts were terrifying.
Even gasping for air, he brought his light sword up just in time. The ethereal blue blade clashed violently against the holy light, the impact jarring my wrist and rendering the strike useless.
Using the distraction, Freed threw a wild punch with his free hand, aiming for my groin. I hastily jumped back, putting a few feet of distance between us.
Freed forced himself back up to his feet. He began to laugh hysterically, the sound grating against the walls as he glared at me.
"Ha, ha, ha! I've always wanted to fight a High-Ranking Devil!" he screamed, his eyes wide with absolute madness. He reached into his coat with his left hand, pulling out his heavy pistol.
"Now I finally have the chance!"
He aimed center mass and pulled the trigger.
BANG. BANG. BANG.
I raised my left hand. [Lesser Ward] flared to life, a shimmering golden dome of energy wrapping around my body.
The three high-caliber bullets struck the magical shield, instantly flattening and bouncing harmlessly off the barrier, clattering against the hardwood floor.
Freed's smile vanished. He stomped his foot like a petulant child, screaming at the top of his lungs, "You're not playing fair!"
He holstered the gun and lunged again, this time thrusting the light sword directly at my shoulder. I swatted the holy blade aside with my Bound Sword, creating a massive opening in his guard.
I didn't hesitate. I snapped my leg up, driving a flawless, devastating front kick dead center into his chest.
The heavy thud of my boot connecting with his sternum echoed through the house. Freed was launched backward, flying through the air until he crashed into the heavy oak dining table.
The thick wood completely gave way, snapping in two under the sheer kinetic force of the impact. A sickening crack filled the room as he hit the floor amidst the splintered wood.
Freed slowly pushed himself up, but his left arm hung at a completely unnatural angle, clearly broken. A massive, jagged splinter of oak had impaled his left shoulder, soaking his white trench coat in blood.
Despite the catastrophic damage, he was still smiling.
"Who are you, Devil?" Freed panted, coughing up a spatter of blood. He licked his lips, his crazed eyes locked onto mine. "I would at least like to know my prey's name before he dies a terrible death!"
I let the Bound Sword dissipate. I stared at him, my expression completely flat.
"I am no Devil, Freed Sellzen," I said, my voice cold. "I'm only a human. And I am the most dangerous one you will ever face in your short, miserable life."
I didn't give him a chance to respond. I raised my right hand, channeling a massive surge of Destruction magic.
[Lightning Bolt]
A blinding, jagged bolt of high-voltage electricity tore out of my palm and struck Freed squarely in the face.
He didn't even have time to scream. The sheer concussive force of the blast sent him flying backward into the far wall. He crumpled to the floor in a smoking heap. His body convulsed violently for a few seconds, electrical arcs sparking off his clothes, before he went completely still.
I quickly pulled up his status window.
HP: 20 / 250
Status: Incapacitated.
I let out a long breath, letting the residual magic fade from my hands. I turned around to check on the girls. "Are you two alright?"
Asia looked up from behind the couch, her face streaked with tears but her expression flooded with relief.
She offered a shaky smile, her hands glowing with the soft green light of [Twilight Healing] as she carefully stitched up the deep, burning gash on Isa's shoulder.
My spectral wolf had trotted over to Freed's unconscious body. It stood over the priest, baring its massive white teeth and letting out a low growl, clearly hoping the man would wake up so it could finish the job.
I quickly walked over to the girls. Seeing Isa's ripped uniform shirt and Asia's torn habit, I opened my inventory space, pulling out two large, clean button-down shirts I kept as spares, and handed them over.
Isa practically snatched the shirt, gratefully wrapping it around herself to cover her exposed chest, muttering a string of breathless "thank yous."
Asia finished healing Isa and noticed my wolf limping slightly on its injured hind leg. Her pure heart immediately took over. She crawled over to the massive beast, her hands glowing green. "Oh, you poor thing. Let me help you."
The wolf instantly snapped its jaws, baring its teeth at the nun and backing away with a sharp growl. It limped quickly over to me, hiding behind my legs and nuzzling its wet nose against my thigh.
Asia pulled her hands back, looking utterly heartbroken. "Why won't he allow me to heal him?"
