[On Hold] I'm a what?! (That Time I got reincarnated as a slime x Male Reader)

Chapter 24: Demon Lord

Burning ash filled the air and darkened the beautiful colours that once filled this world, burning pyres of what was once houses now looked more like a funeral; schools and hospitals were not saved and people were beginning to get trapped on the island with no way to escape but only accept their fate. This would not do.

Children screamed and ran as swords cut them down, This would not do. Parents cradled their babies in their arms for the last time, This would not do. Lovers seperated and desperate to hold eachother's hands in their dying moments but were stopped by cruel soldiers or fallen rubble, This would not do.

Heartless were the souls of men, Heartless were the souls of the fighters and leaders and Mindless were those who believed the death of innocent men, women and children were ok, This would not do.

A burning sensation filled your heart, an anger ripping from deep below the surface as more and more lights were snuffed out early but you wouldn't allow it and if needed- you would change this world for the better. You locked onto the first targets and placed your hand forth towards them before using your new skill and watching them fall like clay dolls against the floor, you would make a display for the leaders who dare try pull such a stunt like this- the cruelty of it and the pain they caused were unforgiveable.

You: " This will not do... "

Your voice was covered in a latent anger that seeped forth from your very being and erupted in a pyre of magicules that resembled a catastrophic and raging inferno that blazed above the city sky- soldiers and civilians alike looked towards it as you spread your wings and flew high above the city, wings like a burning angel or that of icarus spread high above the castle spire; you could hear awe from below, the cocky tones of soldiers thinking their gods were in their favour and the poor civilains having to beg for the permission to live.

You: " Voice, can you use Omnipresence to let every person in the area and even those in the Night Kingdom hear my voice? "

Voice: " Affirmitive, activating now "

You: " Do not beg for your lives if you are innocent, civilains of the Day court- spread your arms and trust my strength for I am here to help you, Do not beg for your lives if you are the attackers, soldiers of night for all the begging in the world will not even convince me the slightest to grant you mercy "

The civilains cheered happily hearing the voice of what they thought was a hero, you smiled as people needed you more than ever now- you had the voice use omnipresence to target every soldier of the night court and even those at home, leaving only the leaders alive; you charged your endless pool of magicules with Wrath that flickered off you like an inferno and soon a brilliant night sky was made above the falling city, swords glistened in the air before crashing down like hailstones onto those below who dare wield swords against innocents.

The swords pierced every soldier left and ripped through them with whistling speed, each soldier fell with instant loss before seas of glistening blue lights flew into the air and were absorbed by your new skill, you had enough to evolve into a demon lord but you declined for now and flew quickly over to the night court kingdom where you could already see the royalty and leaders attempting to flee.

You: " Oh no, can't have that...Dominion "

A large crystal shaped barrier formed around the city and sealed it shut, no one was allowed to leave- you begin to fly down before gently landing at the gate where the leaders attempted to flee through, the leaders of the knights attempted to step forwards and fight you but were crushed under the weight of your magicules. The leaders got out their carriage with an annoyed and disgusted face, the royals consisting only of women.

Queen: " How dare you! Step out our way foul beast or we shall have you slain "

You: " How arrogant are the foolish and how foolish are the arrogant, you saw your tin men fall beneath me with ease and yet you believe you can do much better? "
