"{Grand Tempest}!"
Arafunn pointed his hands at the flying insect monsters, engulfing them all into an endless spiraling tornado of winds that stretched into the skies and went down into the ground, all of the monsters were instantly sliced into pieces without them even being able to fight back!
FLUOOOOOSH!
However, more and more kept emerging from the Gates, endlessly! Arafunn was shocked, how come they were able to summon so many damn monsters at once? Whatever dungeon these Gates connected to, it was one of utterly ridiculous proportions.
"SHAAAAAH!"
The giant insects attempted to bite him and tear him apart with their giant mandibles, however, Arafunn moved so fast across the skies that it seemed as if he was teleporting.
"{Melody of Destruction}"
He quickly took out his flute, a legendary item, and sang out a melody with it. With strong, and heavy notes, the sound spread around everywhere, and the monsters suddenly stopped moving…
Their bodies began to grow bigger, swelling up, and then…
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
They all exploded in the skies, so strong was the explosions that it killed other giant bugs near them, spreading into multiple explosions, Arafunn used this opportunity to break through their endless army, reaching the Gates much faster.
FLAAAASH!
"Gryeeeh?! You're already here, hero of winds?!" Asked the praying mantis-like demon in shock. "I won't let you get through!"
The demon was over four meters tall, a truly big goliath, exuding the powerful aura of a Tier 7 demon, it was a rather powerful threat… but not for Arafunn.
"Someone that attempts to harm innocents doesn't deserve my pity." Said Arafunn, lifting the demon off the ground before he could even land a hit and putting him inside a bubble made of winds. "{Wind Prison}!"
FLUOOSH!
"W-What the…!?" The Wind Prison continued tightening, constantly closing the gap faster and faster… until the demon was completely crushed into pieces inside, dying in a second.
This was one of Arafunn's most lethal attacks, with a mere swipe of his hand, he could easily crush a person through wind compression… He was perhaps one of the strongest heroes, but never choose to use his powers, and often preferred not to fight.
However, through these last years, he had changed a lot as a person, and has begun to appreciate his family much more. For Faylen, Sylphy, the little Zephy, and everyone else… He had to be merciless, especially against foes that did not intend to negotiate, nor were forced into this like those in Eastgrain.
No, with his spiritual powers he easily sensed these demons were malicious to the core, and strangely, they weren't normal demons either. These insectoid demons weren't born normally in their tribes but were created and raised… by someone else. The spirits of the wind could see and tell many tales, and Arafunn learned a lot from the wind spirits that were around this demon.
"Demons created through Demonic Eggs?" Arafunn wondered. "What is even going on anymore?"
CRAAASH!
He crushed the jewel in an instant, the Gate immediately closed and his winds took care of all other monsters left behind, slicing them into pieces as he traveled towards his next destination.
The Wind Spirits were always vague with what they said, but never wrong, and they did not lie either. Arafunn learned that these demons, and even those ones in Agartha were more like monsters.
They were born from the eggs of a giant insectoid queen monster, which had been mutated through the usage of the Demon King's Fragments into an insectoid demon-bearing queen.
"So all these monsters… Were they all demons mass created through this horrendous method?" Wondered Arafunn. "I'll have to tell everyone once I am done."
Meanwhile, at the other side of the battlefield, Tempest and Melodia flew past endless swarms of bugs. The Tempest Eagle flapped his wings rapidly, unleashing devastating slicing attacks with his feather projectiles, while Melodia screamed her lungs out, generating ultra-sonic waves that made the bugs explode into pieces.
SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAASH! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"We're almost there, Tempest!" Said Melodia. "Almost there- Uwaah?!"
Melodia, however, was suddenly surprised as a giant Demon Flame was flung at her from below. The praying mantis-like demon in the ground had changed from its green color to a redder one…
"Why is he even stronger out of nowhere?!" Melodia asked in shock.
"That power… It became something like an hybrid between a demon and a true demon!" Said Tempest.
BBBZZZZTT!
The Praying Mantis-like demon flew into the skies by moving his insect wings rapidly, as he quickly unleashed his fiery aura, firing countless fireballs at the two familiars. Unlike the Demon in Agartha, he had underwent a simpler transformation that only used low grade true demon souls.
However, the power boost was insane, growing from Tier 7 Demon to a stronger being comparable to a Tier 8… or even near Tier 9!
"Geheheheh! Can you handle my endless demonic flames?! Demonic Energy can melt everything! Even you, familiars of a hero, have no chance!" Laughed the Demon.
"Is that so?" Melodia asked angrily. "Hmph! You demons should REALLY know your place! We spirits are beings that are even more ancient than you guys!"
"Hah! Shut up, you stupid brat!" Roared the Demon, unleashing thousands of fireballs against Melodia.
"MELODIA!" Tempest cried, unable to go protect her as he was being swarmed by thousands of monsters at once.
"I am not the Princess of the Wind Spirits for nothing." Melodia said angrily, her eyes glowing from gold… to rainbow.
FLUOOOOOSH!
An enormous tempest of winds appeared around her. The wind currents moving in such a way that they created a glorious melody. Melodia's body suddenly began changing, as if she was aging…
Her wings became bigger, and greener, her body taller and more majestic. Her childish face became more mature, and beautiful, and a crown atop her head appeared, made of green wind elemental mana.
Alongside that, thousands of swords made of wind elemental mana appeared, as she fired them against the demon's fire.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
