How To Be A Demon lord: The Former Hero's Journey As A Demon Lord!

[Gravity Restraining Seals: Deactivated]

A feeling of lightness enveloped Pyra's entire body as she deactivated the gravity seals for the first time in decades. Pyra had a seal on her body that added five thousand kilograms of weight to all her limbs to train her strength. So now that she deactivated it, she removed twenty thousand kilograms of weight from her body! It was like Pyra stopped carrying a school bus ad now she felt light as air!

Boom!

A loud sound echoed through the room as Dray burst out from the wall and faced Pyra again. He was still sneering angrily as he glared at her.

"I'm going to fucking kill you! Who the hell do you think you are!? All you demons are going to die by my hand! I'll kill all of you!"

Pyra narrowed her eyes at Dray. She could only think that he was rambling like an idiot.

"Do you think you have the strength to make a declaration like that? Even with the power you have now, your strength is nowhere near that of an SSS-class. At most, you will never lose to an SS-class, but that is the limit of your power. If you want to make a declaration of power then try to first have power,"

Phwoom!

Boom!

Before Dray could even react, Pyra disappeared in a blur and a massive weight slammed into his chest! Dray spat out blood in pain as he felt his rib break! He didn't even see Pyra move! Dray flew back and Pyra followed him and slammed her mace into his chest again! This time Dray flew through a wall and burst into the next room!

What was going on? Dray was so confused! How is she this strong? How did she get this fast? I could keep up with her before! I was even stronger than her!

But it didn't matter if she was faster! Dray was too angry to stop fighting just because she became faster! He roared as he shot his hand forward! A blast of fire shot forward through the hole in the wall to engulf Pyra!

Slam!

Gah!

Pyra was able to avoid the flames and get behind him and Dray let out a shout as a mace slammed it to his back! Just how fast is she!?

Dray's feet slammed into it the ground to stabilize himself as he turned around and released another blast of fire!

Boom!!!!

Pyra rose her mace up and used it to block her face as the blast sent her sliding back. She hmmed as she brought her mace down and saw that Dray was still glaring at her.

A great amount of anger surged inside Dray as his power started to increase even more. His incomplete resonance started to stabilize as a great fire surged around the entire room.

[Magic Resonance: Sea Of Black Fire]

Drays fire changed to change to black as he started to use up even more mana! All the mana that was stored inside his seal and the mana core inside of him was burning up at an intense rate as he tried to increase his power output. But even with all of this, it is not possible to defeat an SSS-class when you are still an SS-class. The difference between Dray and Pyra was just that large!

Boom!

Pyra didn't have the time for such nonsense. She blasted off from the spot she was standing at an even faster speed and drew back her mace. Dray was shocked at her brutality as he saw her mace coming straight towards his head! He immediately crossed his hand in front of his face to protect it!

Slam!!!

Crack!

A loud crack echoed through the room as Dray's hands broke! Dray's body blasted through the wall and landed back inside the training room. Dray was bleeding from his nose and mouth and he could feel that even his skull was cracked. It was a miracle that he was still alive and conscious. The fire immediately died down as his False Resonance ended. Dray was com[letely out of mana and there was no power left inside him.

Dray turned to the side and he cursed as he saw Willow's body lying beside him. A foot stepped into his vision and Dray turned his head to look up at Pyra's stoic face. Throughout the battle, she didn't change her expression once.

Is that the gap between us? Is she so strong that I never even had a chance? Fuck. Fucking demons. It's like I was a cockroach she was just stepping on! She didn't even take me seriously and I still lost! Dray cursed inside his mind as he realized how weak he was. Pyra didn't have to use a single spell against him and she still destroyed him!

Slam!!

"GAH!!"

Pyra's mace slammed into Dray's chest and he spat out blood as his energy left him. Once Pyra was finished with him, she looked around and made sure that no one was moving. The lesser demons will have to do a lot of cleaning later since the demon lord might use this academy in the future.

Pyra didn't even care about Dray anymore once he died. He might have been the most troublesome human she ever faced, but he wasn't worth much in her eyes.

Pyra opened her communication circle and made a call to Rizi as she started to walk out.

"Rizi. I'm finished in the training hall. Where are you? I want to open a portal to you,"

Rizi told Pyra her location and Pyra closed the communication circle as she was about to step out of the room.

"Hmm. Another pest? I don't know why you all show up whenever I'm around,"

Pyra stopped as she saw someone at the door to the training room. It was a man with blond hair and red eyes. He was looking around with bored eyes and Pyra immediately had her guard up. She didn't notice him approaching. He doesn't have the scent of a demon on him so he is a human, but Pyra could tell that this man was strong. She might have to use spells against him if she wants to kill him quickly. Pyra has been trying to preserve mana by not using any spells, but she knows that she cannot try to conserve mana against this man.

The man was named Elias and he was the same person that Floid met in the castle when Floid was pretending to be Duke Winchester. Elias looked around the room with bored eyes and he clicked his tongue when he saw how dirty it was. This is why he hated demons. They were all just forces of destruction without any sort of control. They will swing their weapons around like idiots until they kill whatever is in front of them. How ugly.

Elias didn't have any sort of sympathy for the dead humans. Even though he was also a human, he was far above these lower life forms. They had no right to even kiss his feet, so there is no need for him to feel pity for them. If they are so weak that they would die to a mere demon, then they are nothing but insects. Elias had a proud air around him as he spoke.

"I didn't know you all would be coming into this kingdom today. I should have chosen a different day to look here. I didn't even find what I was looking for,"

Pyra was confused by what he was saying and she didn't even know if he was talking to her. Elias wasn't even looking at her as he didn't bother to acknowledge her presence. He was acting like she wasn't even in the room at all. To Elias, Pyra wasn't somebody worth acknowledging.

Pyra squeezed her hand around her mace as she started to plan out a method of attack. Her restraints were still deactivated so she should be able to attack faster than he can react. She just needs to...

Woosh!

Ka-Boommm!!!!!!

Elias thrust his hand forward with insane speed and a massive blast of air passed right beside Pyra's head and destroyed everything behind her in a massive explosion! Pyra's eyes were wide as the massive explosion blew a shockwave across her body. She knew exactly what happened, but she couldn't believe it. This was the first time that Pyra was not able to see an attack! Pyra's grip on her mace became so tight that her palms started to bleed! She was stuck in place as she stared with wide eyes at the strongest human she has ever seen. Is this man an SSS-class? No. He is stronger than that. He is an EPIC rank!?

The ranks after SSS-class were not very well known and Pyra only knew that after SSS-class, you can enter the Epic Rank! But she has not seen anyone in that rank because they needed more than Five million MP and also two SSS-class skills before they can break through to the Epic Rank. Pyra only had two million MP and it seemed unbelievable for any human to have up to five million!

Cough!

Pyra coughed and blood dripped from her mouth. That blast didn't even touch her, and yet it managed to damage her this much. Just who is this man?
