58 Chapter 58

Before Sam could reply, he was pushed into the other room by her. He pushed back when he realized that he was heading for the window.

"Nice reply to Denji. But he will seriously believe that you're his mom," Sam pushed back with a laugh on his face. He didn't seem to have any disadvantage when it came to raw strength. All that happened was that he got caught off guard.

"I've heard about you from a previous colleague. Talented and hardworking. Not many can dodge my attack," she said in a mocking tone, "Too bad that you are just a pawn."

"Just a pawn?" Sam pushed back.

"Oh, didn't Makima make you love her like a puppy," she mocked, "Wanna team up? I'll free you from your curse."

So she must be thinking that Makima was controlling him. As for her colleague, who would it be? It could be that Russian drunk Devil Hunter. After thinking a bit, this woman doesn't look Chinese at all.

"Just so you know. I'm doing this of my own will," Sam replied. "And I don't care if my woman is a devil, human, or fiend. Anything above 40 kilos, smash."

Besides, Makima was so good in bed.

"So you're just a young man in puberty who's easy to control," she sighed, as if she had the higher ground. In height, maybe. Morally, hell no.

"Says the woman who has 4 fiends to lick her pussy," Sam replied.

"I last too long for bed. Something you humans can't comprehend."

Somehow, that triggered a memory for Sam with Power. "Trust me, I can last. I have a fiend girlfriend too. But the post-nut clarity is a game-changer, something you know a little about."

For some reason, this conversation was taking too long.

The blonde woman took her sword back. Sam, this time, could see her sword swings clearly. At least, her shoulder gave away her moves. His skin, for a second, turned red.

He parried what sounded like 10 strikes that would have cut him to pieces.

He exhaled a breath full of steam, his skin tone turning back to normal.

Sam started debating with himself if he should play along with this woman's claim that he was being played by Makima. Then, when she buys it, he could stab her in the back and get an easy victory.

However, there was a little problem.

If he did win like that, how would he brag about his glorious hypersonic samurai fight to everyone?

"Not so bad, boy," she said, turning toward him, "You're the first one to survive this. But I can tell fighting at such speed is harmful to your human body."

Sam smiled. Sparks of lightning danced around him.

She reached into her pocket, picked up a cigarette and lit it up.

"You may be a little faster. But," Sam extended his hand to the right. Four swords appeared, circling around him. "But the only thing your speed shall help you against me is to escape."

Amused, she looked at the 4 swords circling around him. They seemed to have independent will.

"Don't jump to conclusions because you have interesting tricks up your sleeves," she pointed her hand at him. Her body morphed in a second. Bows surrounded her arms. Her head got covered in an armor-like piece with arrows piercing it.

Sam frowned. 'And here I was preparing to fight her to the extreme before using my second phase. Shit, she has one too.'

His veins became more apparent, and Sam had a steamy aura around him.

As she moved her finger, an arrow left her arm at supersonic speed. One of the red swords reacted and clashed with the arrow, cutting it in half. Sam still had to dodge. Turning into a lightning bolt, he vanished from his place, sending many air blades at the blonde woman, which she dodged by moving around.

"I don't have an advantage against you, not in a close place. Fighting you is a waste of time, see you later," she said, releasing a bunch of arrows from her hands. It felt more like an attack from a rifle than a bow. Sam deflected them with his sword. Once he was done, the blonde assassin was no longer here.

On the wall, there was a big hole.

Given her supersonic speed and that she transformed into a fiend, she must have gone away.

Sam suddenly got a sense of other fiends around.

'Denji!'

Sam cursed in his head. As much as he was tempted to chase after the blonde assassin, he had a mission. A mission with a lot of XP to reward and a Legend Tier Item. There was no way he would give up a legend rank item.

Sam vanished, leaving a bunch of lightning bolts behind him as he headed toward Denji.

When he arrived, he saw things moving in slow motion.

Denji was being taken hostage, and by who! A hot Soviet was holding a knife around Denji's neck, Denji who was in his hybrid form.

In front of them, a thin brunette was smiling.

Reze, who was holding Denji as a hostage, looked at Sam with her eyes. She could notice his arrival while he was moving fast, despite the fact that her brain had yet to realize who he was.

Sam deactivated his skill, transferring the lightning into wind and stopped.

Reze opened her eyes widely. She then smiled. "Oh, if it's not you, again?"

"Denji," Sam took a deep breath, ignored Reze, and pointed at the brunette. "Why is she still alive."

"I was going to kill her," Denji said. "But you know, mom appeared all of a sudden, and I started questioning my life. Before I could realize what happened, a bunch of puppets attacked me, and Reze blew them away. When I was about to thank her, she took me as a hostage."

Sam slammed his hand to his own face. "And here I thought taking you to the Red Light District would make you less of an animal."

"You're not the one to judge me. You have Makima, Power, and Himeno," replied Denji. "I'm just a single man."

Meanwhile, the woman who was called Santa Claus finished chanting.

Reze opened her eyes widely and jumped away.

She had super hearing compared to him, who heard nothing.

"Sacrifice children, take this whole building to Hell." She finished chanting.

Sam didn't know what to do. But he had a sense that a very strong Devil was coming here.

Not wasting any time, Sam aimed his hand forward. All of the red swords that had been around him left him and flew to the black-haired woman, cutting her into pieces.

[Ding, Killing Santa Clause main body

+1 million EXP]

When he looked at the window, he found a very large hand wrapped around the whole building. The building that could be classified as a skyscraper. Before Sam could move away, he lost his footing and found himself flying to the roof. The building was lifted by the large hand, being pulled into a ripple in spacetime. 

'I'm going to hell,' Sam thought. 'No way… The place where devils are born. The place where when I kill a devil, it would be reborn there.' A big smile appeared on his face. 'An endless killing cycle.' 

"Why are you smiling, idiot? We are going to hell," Denji yelled. "There are no chicks there!"
