The creature looked at James with surprise and said, "you got sent here by someone too"
"Wait someone sent you here, how…" before James could complete his sentence, he heard a ding. Moving his eyes to look at the message, his eyes went wide, but he felt more confused at the quest he just received.
"special Quest Received"
Slay the demon, and receive a piece of the truth"
"Reward"
The truth (Half).
James was stunned, 'what did it mean by the truth', he didn't understand, didn't he transmigrate into another world, he started having questions, then he remembered what the demon said, 'he asked where this was,' 'he also asked if I was sent here.'
He then turned to the demon and asked, "were did you come from"
Then demon hearing the questions being directed at him frowned, then said "You are not worthy to ask of anything from this lord human, know your place" the demon said with a snarl.
James frowned when he heard the tone the demon used in speaking to him, he was indifferent during their exchange at first, but now that he knew that things may be bigger than he had initially thought.
"your gonna tell me what I want to know or you can just die" after saying that, James materialize a thunder made sword out of thin air.
Looking at the sword the demon just raised a brow at it, he felt the danger that they gave off. "oh so your one of the awakened, hmmmm" the demon murmured silently. "Nobody threatens this lord and lives to tell the tale" after saying that, he lunges at James intending on taking him by surprise.
James eyes went wide at the action made by the demon and only managed to shift his position a little in an attempt to dodge the attack, and he successful dodges it.
"Tch, you humans are all the same, just a weak specie's, be grateful that the great lord ***** have come to end your putrid life's, the demon said with a wicked gleam in it's eyes while licking it's lips, as if fantasizing about the meal it's about to have.
Looking at the demon, James calm down, took a deep breath and felt every piece of his body, before he was using his memories of when he was on earth to fight with the demon, more like survive, but now he planned to use the experience and knowledge of battle that Xerxes memories provided him with. At some point his eyes had closed while he was immersed in the memories.
"This fool even has the guts to close his eyes when fighting with me, do you have no respect for this lord" the demon roared as he charged at James, who was standing idly by, getting close to him, the demon swung his claws at James, but was surprised to see him standing there with his arm stretch, holding his sword made of Thunder in his grasp.

Looking at him, the demon felt that something was wrong, he looked down at his hand only to find out that he couldn't see it no more, "Roarrrrrrrr" letting out a roar of pain, the demon jumped back, away from James while never taking his eyes off him.
James stood up and finally looked at the demon, smiled and said, "you sure you don't want to reconsider my offer, while it's still open"
"Hmmm don't flatter your self too much human, you only took an arm, just because I wasn't focused, let's see you do that again…." Before he could settle his sentence, he saw a blur right underneath him, before he could relax he felt a bone curling pain in his right leg, it's been cut off, his right leg was servered by James.
The demon was in pain and also stunned, he could swear that he never took his eyes off James for a second so….
"How" the demon asked through gritted teeth's.
"Thunder clone" James muttered to himself. "Not so high and mighty now are you lord," James asked mockingly
"hmmm, your powerful human, but you still have a long way to go if it's just this you have"
"Says the one on the floor, now answer my question or die" "hahahahaha" the demon suddenly burst out laughing.
"you think am scared of you human, kill me for I won't say a word to you" the demon says with a crazed expression.
"What am I even doing, I should just kill it and get it over with, am sure what the system has to say is better than what I will get from him anyways" James muttered to himself.
"Well since your not helpful then die" with a fierce gleam in his eyes he lops off the demons head as the sweet tone of the system notification plays in his head.
