Chat Group For Magicians

This demon, from what I can remember, almost suffered defeat in the hands of Voltaire. I suffered defeat from her at that time because I am still weak and cocky and I might have died if not for the intervention of Voltaire. But now, I am still a little bit weak and she actually grew stronger now that I met her again! I am not sure whether this is going to be a good thing or not.

"Long time no see boy, or is it just a few days ago? No idea, but since I meet you here by chance, perhaps, destiny is looking for you?"

I did not respond and quickly ignited my right fist while using my left hand to keep Anya on my back. I also activated the Blazing Shoes to push myself forward and rush forward towards the female demon. I might have trained my speed and strength but it barely makes up against the demon. Even my Weakness Perception is only showing a blank slate and error messages showing that this demon is either too strong for my Weakness Perception, I did not back down. I have a big score to settle with this woman and I am not going to even care if I managed to kill her or not. Defeating her here will remove future troubles but I am not sure whether my strength will help.

My dragon power is also limited and since I just used it earlier, I have to refrain in using large fractions of power from it to avoid a huge backlash that might cause my body to get some complications, I can't go all out using this which means I have to keep my attacks reliant on my raw power and magic power alone.

When my flaming fists were about to hit the demonic woman, my fist suddenly came to a halt and I can't even move it. It was like my hand was petrified. The flames in my hands are also extinguished.

"Hey, hey. I am just greeting you, why are you so hostile? Anyways, I am just greeting you so there is no need to be so rash like this. I am not going to fight you YET. I am not that cruel despite me being a demon. So I will let you off the hook right now, you are not one of our targets so you can just go and hide somewhere out there."

I still did not respond to what she was saying. I am trying to break free from her control.

"Kid, you cannot escape on that magic of mine. You are too weak, you can't even destroy this magic so just don't resist. And besides, if you don't want to let your companions die, shouldn't you get moving already?"

"Why are you doing this?!" I gritted my teeth.

She fell silent and she glared at me. "No more questions. If you want to die, then feel free to stay. If not then scram!"

After that, my whole body once again returned to normal and I can move again. However, I no longer attacked her. I have Anya in my back and Maple is not someone who will have any kind of power to fight her back. For some reason, she is still trying to hide something but I have no time. There are still a few demons that just came out from the rift and I don't want to get discovered by them so we retreated. I have no idea why she is doing this all of a sudden.

...

(A/N: This is the POV of the demon that Kazuma met just now)

When the group of humans retreated from my location, I felt the presence of the 7 upper echelon demons that just appeared on the demon rift. They are coming in this direction quickly. I am already prepared for their arrival.

As soon as the demons appeared in front of me, I put my right hand in my chest and pounded it.

"Are you the one who is sent to welcome us?" a demon with a rich-looking man that looks like a businessman asked me. Of course, this guy is a demon. The rich-looking man is just his cover as a human.

"Yes. Master Kurosaki is already waiting for everyone's arrival," I said.

"I see. So he is now fully prepared to do what he needs to do, and he requires our aid to complete that?" a woman with a noble aura on her giggled as she covers her mouth with her foldable fan

"It is necessary if we want to summon our Great Lord Shadow. To avoid the humans from knowing the situation, this place is perfect for covering the situation from the magicians," a guy who looks like a Chinese man wearing a Changshan said as he smiled to the woman.

"Not necessarily. Most of you didn't know that we have arrived at the area where the magicians are under heavy surveillance to this world," I said.

Everyone was stunned. I want to facepalm, they are powerful, but they didn't realize that we are under the surveillance of the magicians? Are they really someone who managed to become this strong and yet so ignorant in things?

"Lead the way, I don't want to delay our progress in summoning our Great Lord if what you said is true. They might have already been making their move right now so we have to hurry."

I grinned hearing this. Once the Great Lord will appear, I will be ready to get stronger and I will beat up the lightning guy who almost killed me. And that kid earlier, I will make sure he will never have a chance to fight even if he tries to get stronger than me. Hehehe...

...

That demon was still very strong. If I fight her right now, I will be dead for sure. Even with Yuri, Yuto and Kon's help won't do much. I can't summon Inari right now so my chances are still too low. The only thing left for me to get stronger is to make a shortcut to that but it will be dangerous. The demons are really plotting something and based on the female demon's words, something will happen that will cause chaos and death. I am quite sure this is something that has something demons.

"Kazuma, why are we escaping? Isn't beating the demons the priority of magicians?" Maple asked.

"Have you fought demons before?"

"Well, no actually," she answered.

"Then that is another reason we should avoid the demons. Death will come knocking at us if we fight her."

Of course, I want to defeat her as soon as possible but I am not an overpowered individual. I might be able to learn most magic spells I want to learn but I can't raise my power in just a small time.

"Stepfather... do you want to be stronger?" Anya suddenly said to me causing me to stop and look at her in confusion. What did she mean?
