Mortale and the incubus known as Valentino exchanged blows. Magnus was being protected by Elvia, who encased him in a flower barrier. The succubus known as Gia threw powerful explosive orbs at Thali, who dodged them. "Flame sword!" Thali yelled. A large flame that was shaped like a blade appeared in her hand. She ran forward, zooming past a protected Magnus, who was bright eyed and excited. She started swinging her blade around, the sound of flames echoing around the cabin. Gia dodged, cartwheeling and flipping around Thali.
Thali then changed the flame sword into a flame whip. She whipped towards Gia's legs and when the whip successfully circled around the succubus's ankles the succubus began to panic. "H-hold on!" Gia screeched, her face pale and her pink eyes turning wide with horror. Thali smirked before dragging the whip forward and running towards the struggling demon. She then wrapped a rope around the young woman, binding the wrist and ankles together.
Mortale and Valentino's fight had made it outside. Magnus watched in awe as they fought under the blue, cloud filled sky. Mortale seemed as if he was dancing. He used the sword with precision, elegance and beauty. "They're really cool, aye?" Elvia spoke up, a large smile on her face. Magnus nodded his head. He had figured by now that he was reincarnated in a world with magic and monsters. He would lead a life far better than the one back home.
Mortale continued fighting. Valentino raised his palm in the air and a large dark orb was forming with dark matter rotating around it, causing strong winds to form. The black orb then engulfed Valentino. Thali, Mortale and Elvia looked ahead ready for trouble. "What's going on?" Magnus asked. "The incubus is evolving." The darkness surrounding Valentino dispersed and outcame a demonic version of himself. He no longer looked completely human. He had large horns, pitch black skin with purple lines. His wings were large and black with sharp claws at the top. His eyes were sharp and red. He disappeared and appeared behind Thali. With her cat-like reflexes she was able to get away from Valentino.
He wasn't her target. His scared out of her mind sister was. With Thali binding her limbs she was unable to move, making it easy for Valentino to devour her. Magnus watched in horror as the other three watched in disgust. "Must destroy." That's all he repeated. "Must not fail Lord Barragan." Mortale readied himself but he was too slow. His throat was caught between Valentino's hardened elbow pit and he was thrown full force back, smashing through the cabin walls and towards the forest.
Thali looked at Mortale in shock. She readied herself, leaping into the air and coming down with a forceful kick on his head. Valentino caught her by the ankle and threw her towards the large tree. Her back hit the branch and knocked her out. The demon then turned towards Magnus and Elvia. The fairy then grew into a young woman and started dashing at light speed towards Valentino, leaving Magnus encased in the protective garden.
She threw heavy punches and kicks, twirling before committing her next attack. Magnus watched as Elvia attacked, noticing the damage she was causing the demon. She must be the strongest out of the trio, he concluded. She leaped in the air and with her palms open, a bright light started forming. "Thorn Cage!" Vines with thorns attached surrounded Valentino. She then closed her palm and the thorns tightened around the demon.

Valentino wailed as the blood spilled from his body. He raised his arms and ripped the thorns with pure strength. He then punched a shocked Elvia in the stomach, sending the fairy crashing into what was left of the kitchen. Magnus was now terrified. Was he going to die again?. As Valentino came nearer, Magnus' sanity was hanging by a thread.
"Going into thrill mode." Magnus's brain switched off and his pupils started to dilate. His hair started to glow bright red and his eyes were glowing too. His body started to move at light speed on his own. He punched Valentino in the face, causing the demon to stumble backwards. He then leaped in the air, spun and kicked the demon's head downwards, making Valentino loose his footing.
He recovered quickly and shot an orb at Magnus who dodged then roundhouse kicked the demon back. Thali and Elvia could not believe their eyes. Was the kid possesses? The demon summoned a large sword and started to swing at Magnus, who dodged quickly. His mind was focused on nothing but the attacks. Magnus went backwards. With an open palm a ball of electricity started to form. The beam got smaller before it turned into a large blast, taking out Valentino and leaving no remains.
Everything went back to normal and Magnus fell forward, Thali was quick to catch him, her own injuries hurting a bit. Mortale with a hand in his head came from the corner and looked around confused. Thali smiled down at Magnus who was sound asleep in her arms.
Everything happened in the blink of an eyes, and all she could think of was the fact that....
There was so much in store for him.
