Chapter 880: Kali's Wrath
ROAR! The demonic worm roared, sprouting horrid wings of rotting flesh and bones. As a monster, its power grew with each meal, mixing the demon's power into its own.
The worm opened its massive maw, and demonic magic started charging between its countless teeth.
"Be careful, Kali. That breath would be painful." Kayden said with a passive face. "I would slice it in half."
A black flash of pure demonic magic gushed out of the worm's maw, flying toward Kali in a blast of death.
She clenched a fist, the veins on her arm as the muscles on her body contracted. "Don't hit my land!" She flailed her arm, punching the beam into the sky with ease.
At that moment, the worm swung its tail at lightning speed, aiming to pierce Kali's open stomach.
Kali made an OK sign with her hand, catching the tip of the worm's tail in the hole. "Dededede destruction!" She exclaimed, swinging her sword down and cutting the worm's tail.
"She's facing a mortal, but such power is impressive." Kayden smiled.
"She's the daughter of Asura and the mother of all demons." Cain replied. "Don't be fooled by her cute appearance as a little child. That's how demons get people."
"Out of all the gods, she's the fastest grower. They are all violent, but she's on another level of vicious."
The worm's wound splashed blood, but it started bubbling and foaming. The muscles on it expanded outward as the bones held the structure, and the tip of the tail regenerated in the blink of an eye like a hydra's head.
Kali kicked the air, repelling herself toward the worm. With one flip on the worm's tail, she flew toward its head with a smile, swinging a fist charged with demonic magic. CRACK! The worm was too big to dodge the attack and got smacked head-on, blasting the head to pieces.
As blood splattered everywhere, the demons watching the fight gasped. "This can't be! That magic! It's lord Asura!"
"No, that Kali! He's daughter!"
TAP! Kali put her hands together as she saw the worm regenerate its head in the blink of an eye. "What durable one. Let's see how you survive this."
She pointed her hands forward and opened a hole between her fingers. Veins bulged on her arms as her heart rate rose.
PEW! A flash of red blood mixed with demonic magic rushed forward at a blinding speed. The gushing stream of blood slashed the worm into pieces in the blink of an eye, such an attack was fast and deadly, even the wounds contaminated with Kali's blood started rotting and falling apart.
"My blood is red, hot, and sweet." Kali landed on one leg as it rained blood. "It's always boiling, especially when someone harms my demons."
The worm's pieces started twitching as a powerful flood of demonic magic exploded from them. The flesh rotted as thousands of small larvae started crawling out, the thing was multiplying.
"Children, their mother is dead. But they aren't from the ones under my rule. I don't count soul larvae as children." Kali stood with her left foot resting on her right knee. Two hands put together and pointing downward, and the other pair pointing at the sky with her fingers parted.
"Those are the souls of demons you swallowed separated from you into small pieces. They aren't actual offspring."
Veins bulged in her neck and forehead. "Stealing the place of children, now you're pissing me off!"
"Her magic is rising." Kayden looked at Cain.
"Wrath. Just like her father, her power responds to anger and rage."
"She doesn't like the fact a monster tried to mimic children and assume their rights from her." Kayden nodded.
BAM! The worm's pieces exploded, and the worms started raining everywhere. At this rate, they'll spread faster than anyone could hunt.
"I've learned from father Asura, from Daddy Kayden, and Uncle Cain." She put all of her hands together. "This is how to use it, right Uncle?"
"Yeah. Go for it." Cain smiled. He couldn't be more proud. Unlike everyone else, Kali was still a little girl. Her learning speed far surpassed everyone else, and she was the first one to copy one of his techniques.
Kayden's eyes opened wide as he saw Kali's magic expanding at a terrifying speed.
[Elemental Expansion:...]
Kali's smile faded into darkness as her demonic magic swallowed the whole place. Stone rose behind her, building a statue of herself sitting on the ground with offerings and sacrifices.
[...Demonic Shrine]
Unlike what Cain has demonstrated so far, Kali is the only one to unlock an expansion spell.
The expansion itself doesn't have an innate effect, but Kali could imbue it with a technique to unleash repeatedly as long as she has demonic mana and is raging.
Her rage expanded to an outstanding 3 miles, and everything got locked in a barrier of demonic flames to prevent the worms from escaping.
As the shrine stood tall in the middle of the expansion, Kali had already chosen what effect to imbue and that only took her a fraction of a second. Unlike Cain or Kayden, she didn't have that many spells besides her fists and violence.
Kali had chosen the destruction fist that she learned from her father Asura, the same attack she had just used to blow the worm's head off. But instead of it being just fists, she imbues it into everything from kicks, stomps, punches, chops, and slaps, enchanting the shrine with all of it.
The shrine's form shifted into that of a massive statue of herself with a thousand arms and feet, shining with a divinely golden brilliance.
[99999 Demonic destructions] She floated before the shrine as it unleashed all attacks at once, crushing each worm hundreds of times in the blink of an eye.
Those fists didn't only target the worms, but anything that moved inside the expansion, and they didn't just damage the body, but crushed the souls as well, meaning that dying to them is the true end. No heaven and no hell, complete destruction and erasure from existence. Such a thing would usually be rejected by Cain, and he did.
Those souls were forced to become a part of the worm, they too have a right in heaven and hell.
But… Cain smiled.
He didn't take that ability from Kali but left it for her. This time the souls were spared, but anyone she would face later, as long as they were a soul that brought that on itself, Kali would be able to destroy their souls.
It only took a few seconds for the worms to get eradicated under Kali's deadly assault. As the dust settled down, she landed in front of Cain and Kayden in her little girl form, smiling as she spun around in her white dress.
"How did Kali do?" She asked.
"You did great." Kayden patted her head. "You've grown to be a respectable goddess of destruction."
Cain lifted her up. "And that expansion. You copied it from me. When did you see it?"
"When you engulfed the whole world. Everyone got confused. But I tried to learn it." She smiled.
"That's our little Kali. What an amazing talent." He spun her around, and finally gave her back to Kayde.
"What will we do about this?" Kayde looked at the destroyed land, even the hole had gotten plugged.
The demons that were protected by Cain slowly stood up, staring at where their homes were.
"Worry not." CLAP! Cain clapped his hands. "I'll fix everything. I can't let our cute little Kali look bad, can we?"
With his clap, everything returned to the way it looked before. In spatial imaging, he memorized how the space was before the destruction and then reloaded it. An ability he has, and a god of space would have if such a thing existed.
The demons looked around, confused.
"What did happen?" The demons gasped.
"That worm was eating the souls of demons that were buried or fell into the hole. Kali here killed it and freed all the demons in it." Kayden replied, and then pointed at Cain, "And he fixed everything."
"I'm the great demon goddess of destruction! The one and only Kali! Worship me, demons!" Kali stood in front of Cain and Kayde with a prideful stance, puffing her chest with a smug smile.
The demons started sweating, they could indeed feel Kali's divine magic. This little girl wasn't joking, she's their goddess.
"And those two…" One mumbled.
"Daddy Kayden, the god slayer and demon lord of destruction. And this here is Uncle Cain, the overgod of the world." She turned toward the two, "They're taking me a trip down the abyss."
The demons wished they were dead, not only their goddess standing in front of them but the two most horrifying beings in the world. The one who slays the gods and the one who rules over them.
"I ask again, we need supplies." Kayden glared at them and they cried, running away to scramble whatever they had.
"Old man over there." Kali pointed a finger, "Come here."
The man approached her, shaking.
"Remember, the gods can't hear those who don't pray to them. Pray to me, and I'll answer your call,"
