Chapter 22 Lilith's Training Begins
Lucas lied on the ground, paralyzed and tired. He closed his eyes and concentrated on his mana. There was no need for him anymore. This battle was over.
"Can we take a break?!" Thomas yelled out in frustration. Thomas flew to the ground and instantly collapsed on it.
"A break?" Lucas asked as he sat up, rubbing his bruised chin.
"Yeah!" Thomas groaned and rubbed his body as well. His arms and legs were shaking due to exhaustion. His limbs regained humane proportions and returned to their original color. His mana armor disappeared too. His mana armor was not just a physical mana's manifestation, but it was actually a part of his demonic being. Elongated fight against the angel made Thomas's stamina exhaust much faster than normal. Now, he was just exhausted.
"Well?" Thomas asked.
"Hmhm.." Lucas's eyesight turned blurry as he yawned. "Sure. I will take care of you later." Lucas muttered as he passed out.
"You're awake?" Thomas asked while getting off the ground. He walked toward Lucas, but exhaustion made him fall again. "Shit! I can't even control my body anymore." Thomas muttered while closing his eyes. He struggled to stand up once again. "I see teleporting back to the castle is out of the question."
Thomas continued to struggle until, finally, he passed out. The two monsters lied on the sand, unconscious. Both were breathing heavily and sweating profusely.

"This was interesting..." Isaac whispered with a smile. He watched as the Lucas and Thomas fought each other. He has been watching them from the very beginning with popcorn in his hands. It was quite entertaining.
"Daddy?" Lilith asked behind him.
Isaac turned around and saw Lilith who had her hair tied in a two ponytails with ribbons. She wore a cute golden dress that matched with her eyes.
"What is it, Lilith?" Isaac knelt down and hugged his daughter.
Lilith jumped on top of her father as she laughed, "Hahahahaha! I am bored!"
"Why don't you play with Pegasus?" Isaac winked at her.
"..." Lilith frowned. "Wow. You are really smart, Daddy. Why did I not think of that?" Lilith said, rolling her eyes. She spent the entire day fighting with Pegasus; poor creature was so exhausted he fell asleep. Lilith sighed and cracked her fingers.
"Dad, train with me!~" Lilith grinned as she created a sword.
"..." Isaac stood quiet for a moment and thought about Lucas's fight against Thomas. He wondered could Lilith could survive if there was a fight between her and a demon lord. He looked at his daughter, who wore a dress and was prepared to fight against him in a sword fight. A small sigh left his mouth after realizing that the girl has no real fighting experience.
"Okay, okay." Isaac agreed. He created a magic sword with his mana. "Prepare yourself, baby."
"Now, let us duel!" Lilith cheered as she pointed the sword at her dad.
"Alright! Let us duel!" Isaac held the weapon with both hands and pointed it at Lilith.
Both combatants charged forward with their weapons ready to strike. The planet shook from the impact of the magical energy that was released.
"...!"
"Mm?!"
*Boom!*
An explosion of light blinded everyone's vision. When the smoke cleared, they found themselves surrounded by a big crater. Lilith was lying on the ground, dazed.
"Lilith!" Isaac shouted while checking that Lilith was alright.
"Ugh..." Lilith groaned and looked at her hand. "Oww..." Her eye was bleeding.
"Are you alright?" Isaac asked while watching Lilith's wounds heal.
Lilith nodded, "Yeah, I'm fine..." she replied weakly. "Gosh! Could you restrain your power a little?"
"I forgot to hold back!~" Isaac sighed and chuckled. "It looks like you got hurt."
Lilith shrugged, "It's nothing..."
"Indeed, baby. Get up and make another sword." Isaac said, pointing his weapon toward Lilith. "And change that dress. Who wears a dress during fights?!~"
'WHAT THE FUCK HAS GOTTEN INTO HIM?!' Lilith thought to herself as she looked up at her dad. For the first time, Lilith saw Isaac so seriously that he actually raised his voice at her. 'Is he angry because of what happened yesterday?'
Lilith sighed. 'Damn it.'
She summoned her mana and created a new blade. Then Lilith focused mana on her dress, changing it into leather armor. When the armor was done, Lilith stood up with a new look.
"Ready, Dad?" Lilith asked her father.
"Alright, come at me!" Isaac grinned as he raised his sword in front of his daughter.
Lilith spread her wings as she flew forward and aimed her sword at Isaac.
"YaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAH!" Isaac yelled as he swung his sword at Lilith. The gusts of wind were shaking the earth from the clash of their swords.
Lilith dodged the attack and thrust her sword at Isaac's neck.
Isaac blocked the blow with his own weapon and retaliated by slashing at Lilith. Lilith could avoid the attack with her wings.
They circled each other and exchanged blows.
Lilith was getting tired from the continuous attack, but she kept fighting. She was able to land several hits on Isaac, but every time she did, Isaac counterattacked.
Lilith was feeling dizzy when suddenly, the ground trembled from a tremendous explosion.
"Shouldn't you hold back!?" Lilith exclaimed as she looked back at the crater.
"I should. But where's the fun in that?" Isaac laughed. "I'll show you how to use your power, Lilibeth!~"
Lilith glared at her dad for a few moments, then she turned around and faced Isaac.
"Alright, Dad!"
"Good girl!~" Isaac grinned as he readied his sword.
"Get ready!" Lilith screamed as she created a large fire blast.
Two deities were destroying the planet as they fought. The crater was expanding, and soon it swallowed the entire area.
"No! Stop!" Lilith screamed as she tried to stop them. "Stop! Stop, stop! STOP!"
"Eh? Why?" Isaac raised his brows and looked around to see the destruction the two of them had caused. "Oh.... OH!"
"Dad! The planet! It's going to break!"
"OH! Right! This was supposed to be our training ground!" Isaac paused. "Let's fix it!~"
