Lucifer vanished.
He did not just move fast. He shattered the sound barrier within the confined neutral space of the pocket dimension.
The white marble floor cracked beneath his boots as he accelerated.
Malphas did not flinch. The Demon King raised his massive green-flaming broadsword.
Lucifer reappeared directly in front of the Level 85 Primordial.
He swung his ruby-red longsword with both hands. He aimed a brutal horizontal strike at the demon's throat.
CLANG!
The impact echoed across the endless gray sky. Malphas had blocked the True Damage blade perfectly with his hellfire sword.
The sheer physical strength of the Demon King held the Warlord's strike at bay. The two weapons sparked violently as ruby-red and sickly green magic clashed.
"You are fast, mortal," Malphas sneered. His black-armored face was inches from Lucifer's. "But you are weak. You rely on artifacts to compensate for your fragile shell."
