YM778.TV Chapter 78: First Phase
While playing around with Hannah, Rehabab had been waiting for his opponent to be summoned when he had felt the evil mana and quickly made a few deductions on what might be happening.
Initially, Rehabab had planned to relax and let the situation play out, but then he had seen Blake, Hannah\'s expression saying that she knew the man and in that instant, Rehabab had felt that perhaps he had been a bit too lax about the situation.
Demons just like humans, were separated into factions that had different ideologies and philosophies and occasionally had encounters. Still, amongst demons, there was a general rule which was that when they crossed from the underworld to the world of the living, no demon was allowed to fight the other.
Though there was of course more context to this rule considering that demons could get into complex situations while in the world of the living, this was the general rule and Rehabab had figured whatever being that was being summoned would also follow this rule until he saw Blake.
Although Rehabab could identify a ritual meant for summoning or evolving a demon, when it came to how it functioned, he was as blank as a novice but that still had not worried him after all no demon would hurt another especially considering where they were and under what situations, but seeing that it was a human, everything changed and Rehabab immediately went looking for answers.
"She is my subordinate, stand down"
Rehabab could not help but remember the funny words Hannah had spoken to him as he was about to kill the woman who had lied about summoning a holy being and he would have ended the woman herself if it wasn\'t for the powerful will that had spilled out from the ritual and began poking at him, trying to influence his mind.
Though Rehabab had easily shrugged off this annoying will he couldn\'t help but imagine what the soldiers particularly those from his own side were feeling considering they were the target, and though he had no love for Baltimore, that didn\'t mean that he was just going to allow people of the underworld to be killed and used for some human\'s ritual.
With rage, Rehabab completely forgot about Hannah and shot towards the ritual rune, mana pouring out of him as he headed for Blake, his every step shattering the ground beneath his feet and turning the ground into orange pits of larva that swelled and spread.
Taking no chances considering how the human had decided to perform his ritual on the battlefield despite his presence, Rehabab had a heavy sword filled with cracks that glowed an eerie yellow and released a blistering steam appear in his hand.
Seeking to stop the ritual, Rehabab rushed to destroy the ritual rune, but before he could do that, a powerful presence suddenly descended, its sheer aura making Rehabab pause in his tracks as while others collapsed and lost consciousness, Rehabab fell to his knees, his head bowed as the lives of those within the ritual rune were taken.
.........….
When Blake summoned the suicide technique that had been gifted to him, he also opened his status on the system and observed it as the amour began being summoned his body lighting up and a shout leaving his mouth.

Once again Death passed a hand over the head of Blake Luxander failing to touch him and leaving with another loss.
As Blake felt life return to his body, he opened his mouth and took large gulps of air, breathing heavily and though he couldn\'t see through the thick cocoon of mana that surrounded him, since he was connected to the ritual rune, he could feel the several lives that were ended by it and as this lives were taken the rune wasted no time in beginning to extract their blood essences and most important of all capturing their very volatile souls.
When Blake made up his mind to become greedy, he hadn\'t just heedlessly run over to the battlefield to try his luck, no he had meditated on the matter and in the end found a way to eat his cake and have it.
Kate and Lena worried that he was taking a very risky endeavor, but the truth of the matter was that this endeavour of his was only 50% truly risky, that risk coming in the first phase of the evolution.
