"Ahemm…" The dean cleared his throat and gulped. His eyes stared at the demon intently, his mana rose to the limited as the dean new he couldn't play around anymore. He had to et serious immediately.

Stepping forward, a dark hue converged around his body as a cacophony of cries erupted behind him. Blood rose from the surroundings as the air turned foul.

A gate rose behind as constant banging sounds could be heard from it. It was the same gate that the dean used last time. It hoisted his army of souls. The seven soul general and hundreds of thousands of soul warriors that were as strong as top Magical Realm expert.

The dean grinned as he locked both of his hands together and pushed them forward,

"Banggg," The souls banged the door harder and harder as it opened up loudly.

The area around the dean turned even darker as he unleashed forward the souls. His scythe gleamed in the darkness as he raised it high above his head. His cloak fluttered as the wind blew around him while the seven soul general; each as strong as Calamity Realm expert stood behind him.

Their bodies were corporeal as they existed between the dimensional planes of the soul world and the mortal world. The dean had used his power to pull them into the mortal world temporarily.

The gate he summoned served as the bridge for the souls and the souls happily served their master. For he was death itself, he was the soul reaper that many feared and even in the face of a demon in the same realm as he, the dean didn't shy away from the battle.

He looked at the demon, a furious glint shone in his eyes as he spread his hand far and wide. The souls seemed to understand what he meant as they all rushed forward towards him.

The souls went right into the dean's body as merged with him. The dean's eyes opened wide as they turned completely black.

The demon looked at this and found it as an opening. It stepped forward, a river of blood gushing out of it's body as a huge hammer formed in it's hands. The demon lifted the hammer and crushed slightly.

The ground cracked under the pressure from it's body as the demon jumped high in the air.

It's eyes were crimson as they shone with a distinct demonic presence. It was sure that the demon had a domain of it's own and that it was currently siphoning it's domain to keep up the great expenditure of blood and demonic energy.

The warrior souls rushed forward as they intercepted the demon from breaking through. However, what could mere Magical Realm beings do in front of someone in the Celestial Realm, much less a demon in that realm.

The demon simply swing it's hammer as the souls were bashed away. The demon's hammer was covered in a reddish glow as it cancelled out the special property of a soul. After all, a soul could neither be touched nor be harmed physically. Not until some caveats were included and the glow covering the hammer was imply that.

The dean was still standing in his place, spaced out with his yes completely hollow. Though, an energy seemed to form a around him as his body started to tense. Veins covered of his skin as they pulsed while his muscles tensed to their limits.

His orifices started to leak a greyish smoke as that smoke converged all over his body and covered him completely. The smoke merged with his cloak as a silvery radiance formed over it.

It was the effect of his soul general. Out of the seven that had fused into his body, one has the power to augment and was currently augmenting the dean's artifacts and that wasn't just limited to his cloak and the scythe but to all the artifacts he had on him.

Currently, the dean had more than five artifacts over his body. Two of them were charms while the rest were rings that had different effects and resistances to them.

To a celestial like the dean who heavily relied on soul energy, such artifacts were very useful and when augmented even further. Their power increased by a step thirty percent or so.

The scythe turned even darker as golden intricate patterns formed over them. They covered not only the surface of the blade but the scythe as a whole.

The color slowly returned to the dean's face as his eyes regained clarity. Though, it was too late. The demon was right upon him as the first thing the dean saw was a reddish hammer coming onto him while a red hue surrounded it.

Making a hasty decision, the dean took a step back and propped his scythe upwards. The blade of the scythe collided with the head of the hammer,

'Dunggg!!'

The dean felt his hands vibrate as his whole body shook from the unnatural force behind the attack. He stopped a couple step backwards and winced in pain. A strange shockwave had spread out from the hammer and it travelled through his body, disorienting him further.

He dean shook his head as he gained a sense of clarity. He looked at the demon and tried to think of a way to break free from the contest of strength.

However, before he could do a thing. Another change took place. The demon raised its leg and stomped hard on the ground as the blood constantly flowed out from it's body. The stomp directed the blood forward as it turned into a tentacle that held the dean's legs in place.

This turned out to be another nuisance for the dean as he found his mobility lacking even further. The dean churned his mind as he tapped into the power of the soul generals that had fused with him. As he did, a dark energy started to form around his body. The scythe turned even darker as the light started to bend into it.

The dean channeled his soul energy from his body and into the scythe while he used the power of another soul general to augment his strength.

The soul energy formed a whitish hue around the scythe as it contested with the reddish hue on the demon's hammer. Still locked in heir stances, the dean suddenly looked right into the demon's eyes as his eyes turned blue.

A river seemed to flow within the dean's eyes as tumultuous waves flowed within them. The demon snorted as it stared back into the dean's eyes, not knowing what it was getting into.

After all, demon's weren't any smarter than a normal human child while Celestial demons were more smarter than normal ones, their bloodlust and arrogance betrayed their intelligence many times.

The same happened yet again, the demon looked into the dean's eyes. Not knowing that the demon had fallen for a trick. As the demon looked into the dean's eyes, they flashed even lighter as the blueish hue seemed to disappear from the demon's view.

Its view changed as the demon saw a flashing of images and not long later, the demon found it's body in front of it. It seemed to be spinning, the whole world seemed to be spinning. Yet the demon was extremely calm, it's anger seemed to have vanished as it felt nothing but pure serenity and numbness.

'Thudd!!!' It felt itself touching the ground. Looking forward, the demon saw a headless body falling down on the ground. The body looked eerily similar to it's but without the head. As for the head, it was already on the ground.

The demon's head was cleanly cut by the dean's scythe while even how much the body wanted to regenerate it, the soul energy didn't let it. The dean had inflicted the dean with his soul energy and it ate the demon's body from inside out. Like a parasite killing it's host for it's own benefit and until the end, the demon didn't know it.

After all, the dean had hypnotized the demon. They say intelligence also a form of strength and the dean proved it right. He used his intelligence to fool the demon, used the power of a soul general and put the demon into a calming hypnosis and numbed the demon's senses.

This only lasted for a second but for the dean, it was more than enough. Within that time, the dean had adeptly used his scythe to cleanly cut off not only the demon's head but also all four of it's limbs as the whole body fell into six whole pieces.

The second went by as the demon finally came to it's senses and realized what had gone by but till then. It was too late, the damage had been done and with the ability to heal itself blocked by the dean's soul energy, the demon withered within minutes and died a slow yet excruciatingly painful death.
