Chapter 256 Rabia
In the middle of a dense forest filled with bodhi trees, Lara(?) was quietly taking in the mana from her surroundings. From the mana in the air, in the trees, and even from the ground below. This was a special mana increasing technique she invented a few reincarnations ago. She invented it for the sole purpose of keeping up with Garbiel's reincarnations. Since, Gabriel, Ren, Kretos, Leonard, or whatever his current form was, every one of them was always too strong. He grew stronger too fast and this was happening after every battle, it felt like him simply sleeping could increase his strength.
So for her to be able to keep up no matter which incarnation it could be, she invented this technique that hastens the increase of her mana capacity. As she continued to take in the mana from the surrounding area, Lara(?) couldn't help but sigh.
"There's no use in hiding from me, I've already sensed you since you came within a hundred meters of me. If you're going to attack then attack, why wait for so long? If you're not going to do anything then just leave, you're messing up my training."
"Heh, very impressive little girl. So you've noticed me from the start. If so you should've run when you had the chance. Now that I have shown myself, there's only one fate for you, to be my meal."
From behind one of the trees, a tall muscular being with the wings of a bat appeared. It stood around ten feet tall with horns that look like the antennae of an ant. Its legs were hooves and it hard four arms, each arm had hands with long sharp claws. In each arm, it held a weapon, sword, spear, mace, and a halberd. Its face was hard to describe as it looked like a combination of a man, a wolf, and a buffalo.
When Lara(?) heard the being's statement she couldn't help but laugh at it. Her laughter echoed throughout the woods. It was a laughter that was so free and pure that it was almost felt similar to Ren's laughter when he gets excited in battle. The demonic being frowned at Lara(?) as she mocked him with her laughter.
"Have you gone insane from fear?"
"Fear against a weakened primordial demon? That's the funniest thing I have ever heard." When the demon heard Lara's(?) response it eyes turned serious, as he once again reassessed Lara(?). Yet no matter how he looked at her it doesn't seem like she has anything that could back up her confidence.
Her mana capacity was great for human standards but aside from that, she was nothing special. In fact, in the primordial demon's point of view, Lara(?) was nothing more than food.
"You know what I am yet, you still talk like that? You're pretty haughty for a meal."
"Are you going to keep on talking, or are you going to attack?" Lara(?) signaled the primordial demon to come at her. When the primordial demon saw the gesture and the relaxed smile on Lara's(?) face he grew even more irritated and roared.
He threw the spear he was holding at full force. The nearby trees were torn apart by the wind pressure from the spear throw. As the spear approached Lara(?) she without chanting produced a small tornado slowing down the spear. Upon losing momentum Lara(?) was able to easily deflect the spear.
The moment the spear was deflected the primordial demon was able to get behind Lara(?). He then proceeded to use the sword in his upper right hand to slash at Lara(?). He sliced through Lara(?) but then he saw it was just an afterimage. The real Lara(?) was behind her and was about to punch at him.
The primordial demon was ready to take the strike and counter. He was truly confident in the sturdiness of his body. Yet the moment Lara's(?) fist was about to hit, the primordial demon actually felt danger. He quickly used the halberd in his lower left hand to block the strike.
The moment Lara's(?) punch came in contact with the primordial demon's halberd, the demon was blown away. The power behind that punch made him fly backward crashing into the surrounding trees until he finally stopped a few meters away.
The primordial demon was rattled, his lower left hand grew numb, and his prized halberd created from the anger of thousands of humans looked like it was about to shatter. As he was still dazed about what had happened, he saw a dozen spears of wood coming towards him.
No longer as confident as he was before the primordial demon evaded the incoming spears of wood. The moment he evaded he felt like his legs were getting a bit cold, as he looked down he saw his two legs look like they were being encased in ice.
The Primordial demon tried breaking the ice that was encroaching him using his mace but it proved useless. As he was trying to figure out how to escape he heard Lara's voice behind him.
"Is that it? That wasn't much of warm-up. I had more trouble dealing with that half-demon bird than you. I can't believe a primordial demon could be this weak. If you're already this weak you shouldn't have bothered me."
When the Primordial demon heard Lara's(?) commentary his anger grew as he roared louder than before. It didn't want to show his true form since he was too weak to maintain it for long but needed to kill this wh*re that has insulted him over and over again.
The Primordial demon started growing in size, its grey-skinned body was turning red as veins started popping out. The horns on his head started to bend and swirl. Once it was done transforming the weapons it held could no longer be used because of his size.
"I Rabia the Primordial demon of rage, shall devour your very soul!" Rabia then used its four large arms and started pounding onto the ground where Lara(?) was standing. The strength and speed of his attacks were five times more than before. Each strike he made the very ground shook.
Rabia pounded away with all his fury, but then he felt danger. His lower left hand was not moving and seem to have been grabbed by Lara(?). Rabia's the supposed demon of rage felt an intense fear surge within him. So without any hesitation, he ripped off his lower left arm and fled.
...
Lara(?) who watched the giant demon fleeing with all his might didn't pursue. "Heh, what a pathetic excuse for a primordial demon. Still, I'm also quite pathetic myself."
Lara(?) looked at herself covered in dust and sighed. "I do have a better feel for this body now, and I was able to increase this body's overall abilities, but even with that I guess fighting a primordial demon even in a weakened state was too much."
'If Gabriel could see me now, he would laugh at me.'
Lara(?) felt all the energy she had a while ago was drained from her. She then fell down on her back. "I guess a little nap wouldn't hurt." After talking to herself she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
