The Great Demon System

Chapter 177: Free XP

When the blinding flash of light disappeared, Moby removed his wings that he instinctively used to block the flash of light that was released from Nags's direction.

He did not know how he even managed to move his wings as they were not part of his body from before and completely foreign to him. Yet, somehow, it was as if they were completely programmed into him. He somehow had absolute control over them like they were an extension of his own body and like he always had them which made him inwardly smile since at first he thought that the wings would have been a hindrance and end up getting in his way.

When Moby removed his wings from blocking his vision, he looked at Nags who was now fully transformed, a small crater at his feet from the energy output of his transformation.

As soon as Moby laid eyes on him, he could immediately tell what animal he was, making Moby think that it was extremely fitting for Nags's ability.

Yellow energy similar to that of his barriers surrounded and flowed around his entire body, its surface shining from the reflection of the moonlight above.

Made out of all that energy was a large yet thin shell covering his back, a separation on his neck that led to another shell coming from the corners of his forehead and towards the edge of his nose in the shape of an upsidedown triangle.

Small, tiny, energy claws were seen coming out of his hands and legs that hovered over his actual limbs making him look intimidating yet somewhat cute at the same time.

Nags, who was still in his own mind, laughing as he looked at the sky with his arms still spread stopped and lowered his head with a smile, most of his energy dispersing back into his body before he went to address Moby.

"Hahahaha! I bet you're now speechless and shitting your pants! I'm much more powerful than Jason, even in his spirit mode! He is a dwarf in comparison to me! I won't hold anything back! Now face my wra…"

Nags immediately stopped his sentence as soon as he laid eyes on Moby. Instead of Moby being the one speechless, he was the one speechless instead as he stared at Moby's sin mode transformation with wide eyes filled with surprise.

"Y-you! What kind of spirit mode is that!? From when did you even have a spirit mode?! Your body seems to have transformed on its own and not surrounded or enhanced by spirit energy! How the fuck is that even possible! Did you unlock a new level of spirit mode!? Is your spirit animal a demon!?" Nags exclaimed, still in a baffled state.

"Hehe, like you said, I do have other skills up my ass that I have not pulled, this is one of them. I have never shown this form to anyone except for a few people so it's only natural that you wouldn't know what it is. I am not sure why my spirit mode is different from that of others and I didn't ask anyone yet since I didn't know how the public would react, that's why I kept it a secret," Moby replied with clear confidence in his voice, lying through his teeth as he decided to go along with what Nags said.

"Wow! You sure are a rare specimen! Very unique indeed. The boss sure has a keen eye, I bet they saw the potential inside of you and that's why they're so adamant about making you join. But, still, even with all that, that doesn't change the fact that I'm gonna kick your ass and force you to join the gang. It just means that this fight will be more fun than I expected!"

Moby knew that he had the ability to move his wings but he still had no clue if he was able to fly. If so, then he would hold a massive advantage as he would be able to fly high and shoot energy blasts from the sky where Nags would likely not be able to reach.

As he was thinking of what approach he should go for, a smile almost appeared on his face as he somehow managed to keep it suppressed.

'I sure hope flying works,' he thought as he bent his knees and prepared to take flight when the time was right.

"So, let's see what you're-" Nags announced with an expectant smirk, taking up a fighting stance before being abruptly and unexpectedly cut off by Moby who had just suddenly jumped and disappeared from his spot, taking flight in the night sky above.

As He rocketed up, his wings angled downwards in the air, he stopped in place, flapping his wings with moderate difficulty as he looked back to where he came from and where the original fight had started.

Surprisingly, with his now even further enhanced vision due to his sin-mode he was able to quickly and easily spot the exact location that was kilometres far away.

With a smile on his face, he put his hands near each other and gathered a large amount of demon energy condensed, raging and crackling in the space in between his 2 hands, creating a small ball.

(Check paragraph comment for art!)

As he lifted his hands above his head, that small ball expanded into something more massive before it was thrown with immense strength by Moby who threw his hands down as the ball sped to the exact location where the ambush happened.

Nags who was still on the ground, watched Moby do what he did with immense confusion on his face. To him, it seemed like Moby was just randomly throwing a massive ball of energy for no reason and was just a waste of mana.

However, when he realized the direction that the ball was headed, his eyes almost popped out of his sockets.

'Why the hell would he want to do that? Why now? What's the reason? He is just wasting power that he could have used against me instead, just to kill a few weaklings? If he planned to win he could have just killed me then killed them, why go for them first? Is he just trying to piss me off? Is he saying that he doesn't need his full power to beat me or has he already given up and is just trying to take them out with him since he knows he's gonna lose anyway!?' Nags's thoughts ran wild as his anger began to grow and grow.

Moby, who was slightly struggling to fly could no longer suppress his amused smile, was staring at his ball of energy as it sped straight in front of him.

Before long, just like he expected, he felt a considerable power boost suddenly enter his body.

Strength, Agility, and Health and regeneration on a small degree entered all at once.

Anger = Strength

Annoyance = Edurance

Fear = Agility

Shame/Embarrassment = Health Regeneration + Energy Regeneration

Those were the enhancements that his sin-mode gave him. This meant that his opponent is feeling a great amount of anger and annoyance, along with a small amount of shame and embarrassment from what Moby had just done, which was exactly what he was going for.

Knowing how to agitate and provoke the enemy is a key factor in how to properly use sin-mode, and Moby considered himself an expert of pushing people's buttons.

However, that was only half of what he wanted to accomplish…

Ray, who had been patiently waiting in the starting area was sitting beside a tree, sweat running down his face as he began to pray to God to help Moby win his fights.

He was not a very religious man but when he felt useless, he decided to turn to him just in case and since it was the only thing he could do.

Part of him wanted to follow Moby to spectate and maybe help his fight but he knew that with his level of strength, he would be completely useless and would only hold him back and cause him trouble, so he decided to stay out of his way.

And, even if he wanted to escape and get some help from Alex, that would not be possible because of the massive barrier surrounding the area.

So, to prove himself somewhat useful, he dedicated his time to breaking Nags's barrier around the students in order for him to finish off what he had started. However, after a few minutes of smashing, not showing any progress, he decided to give up and retire which brought him to the helpless state he was currently in, his hands clasped together as he prayed to a random god that he didn't even know exist or believe in.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, he heard a loud buzzing sound coming from the direction behind him, waking him up from his daze as he jumped to the top of the tree to see what was going on and if they had decided to return.

What he saw was a massive purple ball of energy being hurled straight in his direction making him scream in fear as he panicked and ducked, dodging it mere millimetres away from touching his head.

Ray's extremely sorry state was now even further worsened as he began sweating and hyperventilating even more than before, tightly grasping his heart the was beating faster and more sporadic than someone playing a solo on the drums as his vision became hazy and he felt like he was about to throw up and go unconscious. In that instant, he felt his life flash before his eyes, he could not believe that he was fortunate enough to survive in that instance.

He had no idea where that attack was coming from and in his state he could not bother to care.

He began counting out loud from 1 to 10, steadying his breath with each number as he tried to calm his nerves.

However, when he reached the number 2, he was abruptly interrupted by the sound of an ear-piercing explosion coming from behind him.

When he looked, he found a large crater where the students surrounded by the barrier used to be, their corpses nowhere to be found like they were vaporized, wiped off the face of the earth with no trace of them ever existing.

Ray's mind began to spin in circles and with his quick thinking, he managed to put 2 and 2 together and figure out the general idea of what had just happened. However, just like Nags, he could not understand the purpose of wasting such a large amount of energy for something that seemed so insignificant in the face of fighting his opponents.

However, his assumption could be wrong and it could have been a lucky random energy blast flung from the direction of Moby's fight.

He didn't know what to think anymore… His mind and body were in shambles as he sat back down and tried to calm his nerves once more, praying that Moby would come through and somehow, by some miracle defeat both of those monsters.
