Chapter 190 190: The Trial Of Irma Phoenixborn VI
And right back to trying to kill themselves was exactly what everyone tried to do, or better yet most of the people in the council room tried to kill Cole while Irma and her father were completely ignored. Of course just because they were ignored did not mean that they chose to remain that way, as they too began to give it their all. Cole used [Fade] to vanish from the sight of everyone, rushing quickly to the left as he collided with some of the few remaining guards that were in the room.
It was not as if he didn\'t see them, colliding with the four that were about to open fire on Irma and her father was just the beginning of this dance of life and death they were all about to embark on. He body slammed into the first guard, a woman who stumbled right into the only Dremonai amongst their group of four. The Dremonai let out a hiss of surprise and shock at it got a mouthful of [Blue Obsidian] as the bullet blasted out of his head and into the eyes socket of the male human guard behind him. They both went down as Cole slammed the barrel of [Black Sapphire] into the side of the female\'s jaw, ignoring her screams of pain as a use of [Gravity] saw the final guard start floating into the air before he could make any more moves, and right where Cole put a bullet into his midsection, creating a massive hole in the process.
Cole chuckled, as all attention was turned to him by this point. Killing of the four guards from the inception of his [Fade] skill had taken not more that 3 to 5 seconds. From his spot where the female guard was chocking on her own teeth and tongue Cole placed [Black Sapphire] on the back of her head, and completely ignoring the scared and pained whimper from the woman as he out her out of her misery. Then he frowned as he furrowed his eyebrows, completely ignoring the look of shock on Irma\'s mother\'s face.
"shit! I promised that someone else will die first…. Well in the end does it matter, you\'re all still going to die." His danger senses went haywire as he immediately used [Shadow Jump] to appear at a high point within the council, but even after his jump the feeling did not end as he turned around and was treated to the sight of a black and purples shadow tentacle surging out of the shadows to attack him. He quickly. Rested a condensed barrier of [Gravity] but it was barely enough to withstand the strength not the shadow tentacle as he was smashed back, his body flying like a cannon ball to slam into a wall.
There was so much lower behind the impact that the entire room shook as dust and debris fell every which way. From within the dust Cole grinned, he was obviously fighting against people who were Stronger than he was. But that was not his problem as his entire build was catered to dealing with insurmountable odds, it was just a shame that they weren\'t at least five enemies that he was facing, then it would have made the party a whole lot more fun. He blasted out of the rubble, both his revolvers holstered as [Black Malakai] thrilled and vibrated in his hands from excitement.
The sword shifted turning into a massive buster sword, reminiscent of Cloud Strife\'s Buster sword from final fantasy VII. The edge of the blade took on a reddish and grey hue as Cole utilized [Black Cut] [Assassinate] and a touch of [Chaos Blast] and Gravity to give more weight to the sword as he fell down right onto the head of the man with the two massive tower shields. As Cole fell down from the sky looking every bit like the avenging angel or rather in this case the a avenging demon of death, probably after this the avengers should give him a call, he\'d be great for their ranks….. or better yet he\'d probably be a villain they had to deal with.
The shield expanded rapidly, to create a dome over the man as he tried to use it to protect himself. Shadow and lightning both flew across the air in order to intercept Cole\'s trajectory, but with an even more ingenious use of Gravity, he fell faster as both attacks harmlessly flew past his body, as he brought [Black Malakai] down, not in fury or rage, but abject crazed excitement. The impact was so powerful that Cole felt every last bone in his arms break as his sword was flung out of his hands along with his body thrown backwards and once again into a wall to create another crater.
But this time he was not alone. The shockwave released from where the sword had smashed into the shield was so powerful that it blasted everyone back and ruined the entire meeting room, with massive chunks of concrete blasting out of the wall and flying every which way. And beyond that, everyone else, except for the man now shelled with the dome of an impenetrable shield, one that had withstood a full powered augmented strike from [Black Malakai]. Now more than ever Cole wanted the damn thing, he would use add it to his collection of ultimate weapons and armor that he was currently building. The doors to the room had been blasted open and a couple of reinforcements were rushing in, luckily it seems these guys were part of the Irma\'s father\'s retinue.
Or that would have been what it seemed like if Irma and her father did not open fire on them from their injured positions…. Literally! As literally balls of fired began to fly out of their outstretched hands like submachine guns. Irma\'s mother was the first to get back on her feet as she raised her massive lightning cannon and pointed in the direction of Cole. His danger sense went haywire as he quickly rolled forwards, dodging the stream of flickering lightning bolts that smashed into the location he previously occupied. [Spectral Rover] saw him cross the distance between themselves quickly, but he was intercepted as through the sub dimension that [Spectral Rover] took him through, hundreds of shadowy tentacles came for him.
Cole came out of the movement skill, and created a wall of in flux [Gravity] that sent all the tentacle around him whipping around in a frenzy as Irma let loose a stream of flames that seemed to stick to the shadowy tentacles, rushing back into the shadows and straight to the person controlling them. The shadow guy quickly disengaged as Cole now close enough to Irma\'s mother used [Vertigo] before proceeding to Fire off a condensed ball of [Gravity] into her stomach that blasted her back into the wall, cratering it once again before exploding and ripping her stomach to shreds. The wound wasn\'t fatal…. Yet. But at the very least it took her out of the equation long enough for Cole to attempt to rip somebody\'s balls off and measure it with his…..not really though.
The dome fell apart to reveal the sound powered shield wielding guy. He was a complete mess though, it was foolish for Cole to assume that because the shield had remained intact, that the person who was stuck Within a metallic shell of obviously sound attuned or sound improving metal would definitely not be okay. It was as if the entire shield itself was like a tuning fork. There was a stream of blood coming out of his ears and nose and one of his eyes looked as if they had burst. One of his legs was a mess as the knee looked like it had been completely pulverized of the bone within.
His kneecap seems to have been turned to slush and only the tissue and flesh seems to be what was holding it together. His one eye looked crazed, like those of a wild animal that had been finally cornered by a prey that had spent the batter part of a few hours to chase after it. He turned manically his hands on both shields that had returned back to their normal size, his eyes finally set on Cole who had the audacity to look sheepish as his arms healed themselves before everyone\'s eyes. Even Cole had no idea why he was so lackadaisical about this fight, usually he would fight his hardest but as it stands he has not even pushed his abilities to the limit he was sure they could reach. The answer to that was confidence….or perhaps it was something more, A demon Lord\'s absolute confidence on the power and destruction he could bring to bear if he so decided to just go a little crazy…. And not the jumping out of a slow moving car to dance type of crazy…. Real crazy, like the fucking Joker!
"Damn man…. You look like you\'ve seen better days." Cole taunted, unable to stop himself from breaking his enemy down not just in body, but also in spirit. A complete maniac is what he currently was.
"You said I needed an 85% more effort to bring you down, you fucking invader! Well this is me at a 1000% when we meet in hell, don\'t forget to tell them Jerome sent you!" Cole\'s eyes narrowed as the shield turned small until it seemed to melt into the man\'s chest and his back, turning into what was most definitely a massive speaker. If so far Cole\'s danger sense has been running and warning him as 10% now it was blaring out loud at a million, as even his premonition ability showed him multiple futures in the span of a few seconds that elaborated nothingness. Whatever it is this guy was doing, it wouldn\'t just kill Cole to end one of his lives, it would end him period!
"Jerome No! Stop what are you doing you will kill us all!" Irma\'s mother shouted in shock as Irma\'s father used his one good arm to grab his daughter and use their flames to blast out not through the door, but upwards through thousands of tons of concrete as the all attempted to escape from the now aforementioned Jerome. Cole on the other hand didn\'t move, he couldn\'t , he noticed a couple of shadows tentacles had bound his entire body in place, and try as it may he could not tell his body to move….. and then Jerome Exploded.
