Chapter 97 Aimee\'s death (2)

Chapter 97: Aimee\'s death (2)

Gilmore quickly reacted to this development, yanking his arm off the branches.

Alas, he was too late, and the first batch of the ghouls was already hacking at him. Their claws carried a ton of resentment and hatred toward this demon, drawing black trails before him…

…for Gilmore was compelled to dodge their attacks.

After all, his clash with Aimee wasn\'t without any consequences. He had used a lot of mana and was even wounded by meeting her strength. He couldn\'t allow those ghouls to open his wounds more.

But there was something he couldn\'t predict at all.

It was the hulking man encased in black armor suddenly appearing in front of him!

Hunter was already in a motion to throw a punch into Gilmore\'s face, his gauntlet overloaded with his origins and blood.

That one punch was unavoidable, perfectly striking Gilmore\'s nose and sending him flying. He bobbed on the ground before hitting the wall, looking up at Hunter with shock written on his face.

Hunter also was quite bemused, "As tough as a tree… I need more to kill him."

Yes, he hadn\'t used Nakisha\'s powers as there was a cooldown on his black leather armor\'s skill, meaning he couldn\'t borrow the power of either spirit in his world. Still, his punch was still quite powerful.

Which meant that Gilmore\'s defenses were better than Lothar\'s.

But considering Lothar\'s innate skill, it wasn\'t that surprising.

On the other side, Gilmore was having turmoil inside his heart. How could a weak human meant to be a lesser demon under him be this strong? What did he do to become this strong in a short amount of time?

What was the catch?

What kind of price did Hunter pay to become like this?

Those questions brimmed Gilmore\'s mind, yet Hunter didn\'t give him any answer. Instead, he sent another wave of ghouls at him while advancing at the demon himself.

Which Gilmore defended against by combining his powers with the domain\'s tree. It couldn\'t move, but its branches still could be extended toward him, after all.

As branches hung up close to the ceiling, Gilmore sent his Withering Blades, matching the timing with his domain\'s prowess, drowning the ghouls in the barrage of his lethal combination.

Blood spurted, cries echoed, and a few knees already hit the ground.

But despite some of their kin dying to this attack, some ghouls defended well while some even slithered like rats between the branches, cleaving at Gilmore\'s chest.

"How stubborn! You\'re already dead! Fuck off!" Gilmore complained while fending off the ghouls.

Hunter ambled toward him amidst the chaos, whispering, "How about I show you my branches?"

His blood mantle shone again, forming another garden of liberation. Even better, the garden holding back the tree also spat out some of the roses in his direction, copying Gilmore\'s pattern!

As red trails stretched above him, Hunter pounced at Gilmore, inviting him for a battle dance!

While the demon protected himself well against him at first, Hunter soon proved to be much better with his quantity and army, creating a gap in Gilmore\'s fighting style.

Which Hunter used to grasp Gilmore\'s head and throw him onto the ground like a trash bag. He stomped on his back with his entire weight, drawing a loud scream.

The ghouls joyfully joined Hunter\'s side, piling themselves on the demon and gnawing on his flesh. Even some red roses found a way to pierce through Gilmore\'s flesh.

Blood kept fountaining as though Gilmore was in the center of some water festival. His screams were the music to everyone\'s ears, while his imminent death was the crescendo of this show.

Alas, Gilmore was not done yet.

He yelled from the depths of his throat, "World Tree Ambition!"

His tree body convulsed before blossoming into a small tree, blowing off him all ghouls and red roses. He slowly rose to his feet, now looking like a man straight from the forest.

He locked his eyes on Hunter and howled, "World Tree Seed!"

From behind him, two fast vines extended like whips of death, wrapping around Hunter\'s arms. Gilmore reeled himself to Hunter\'s front and slammed his fist against Hunter\'s chest, planting the seed within him.

In an instant, the tree grew from within the armor, skewering Hunter from inside.

For a few breaths, Gilmore had a smile on his face, confident in his victory.

But as no blood dripped off the branches from the World Tree Seed, his heart sank, turning colder.

And from behind him, Hunter appeared, his arm already drawn for a punch.

"Death Over!"

Throwing it with everything he got, Hunter connected his fist and burst Gilmore\'s head from behind like a watermelon, drowning himself in the purple blood. He fought to catch some breath as he stared at the headless body falling to its knees, only to soon drop like a corpse it was.

He smiled while panting, "It\'s no shame for a man to cast away his armor… if it\'s meant to win a battle!"

Indeed, just before Gilmore reeled himself in, Hunter ditched his black armor and sneaked past him.

Which was effortless as Gilmore was focused on his final move.

"Damn… I killed him…" Hunter clicked his tongue as it meant Gilmore would return in the future with another double.

But even Hunter wasn\'t sure whether his punch would actually kill him.

Fortunately, it did, meaning that they all could leave this cruel place.

Running in the direction in which he felt Aimee and Seraphina\'s presence, Hunter cast everything aside, desperately wanting to see them both.

However, he stopped for a second and turned around.

As he did, he noticed the army of ghouls looking at him with thankful smiles, saluting.

"You too, guys. Thank you," Hunter thanked the ghouls before his powers turned off.

He then resumed his run to his team\'s side.

When he reached them, Hunter froze, for Aimee was lying on the ground with her body no longer able to exist.

She was dying at a fast pace.

"Sorry… Hunter. Your first girlfriend… is going to die… so fast… you must feel bad… since… we didn\'t even… had a sex…"

"The hell you are talking about…" Hunter replied with tears already finding their way into his mouth.
