Chapter 177: Dark Awakened Sasha vs Kogen. The Sadist Strikes!

Sasha’s dark powers and true personality are now permanently unlocked! The sadist readies for battle.

“Let’s see your power then,” Kogen says. “Show me your ability to torment me!”

“Don’t worry,” Sasha replies. “You will see it!”

Her sadistic smile hardens into a death stare. “I’m going to inflict the worst suffering on you for every hit you landed on Zeth!”

She dashes forward in a single instant, leaving blur lines behind.

Kogen’s eyes widen, thinking, “She got to me in a blur!”

Sasha’s fist slams into his face, blowing him back into the wall. The force of the punch and the impact against the stone make him cough up blood.

She begins walking toward him, her death stare expression unchanged. “That’s only the beginning. You still have a lot more in store to make up for all the beatings you gave Zeth.”

Kogen pushes himself off the wall and looks deep into her Dark Divine Eyes.

He thinks, “Those eyes! She is tearing into my soul just by looking at me! She is not really attacking me… It’s more like the power of intimidation! I have never seen anyone with this kind of intimidation! She is even more intimidating than the Dark Goddess! Nevertheless, I must defeat her!”

He throws a punch as she closes in. Sasha catches his arm before it lands. He immediately follows with a kick, but she blocks it with her knee. Her free arm drives an elbow into his gut, forcing more blood from his mouth as he drops to his knees, groaning in intense pain.

Sasha’s sadistic smile widens.

“What’s the matter? What happened to all that confidence you had earlier?” she taunts. “It’s so satisfying to see you go from confident to on your knees in agony!”

She licks her lips. “I think I can make it better for you!”

She thrusts her hand forward, fingers bent like claws. Kogen barely jumps back in time, avoiding being pierced.

She watches him rise to his feet fully.

“Not bad,” she says. “I don’t think I have ever brought someone to their knees and they still have the strength to avoid my attack.”

“You really are a monster,” Kogen says. “Taking you down and turning you into an obedient Enigmus will be the ultimate victory.”

Her smile grows even more sadistic.

“Is that what you think?” she asks. “You see… I am where the hopes and dreams of garbage like you go to die.”

She charges again.

Kogen thinks, “It’s not a blur this time!”

Sasha lunges to pierce him again, but he dodges. He tries to kick her, but she blocks with her arm. She lands a punch of her own, smashing into his body with enough force to stun him. A Black Energy Ball forms in her other hand, and she shoves it into his body, causing it to detonate.

Sasha jumps back as smoke floods the area. She stands still while waiting for it to clear.

“I know you are not dead yet,” she says with sadistic desire. “You can’t die until I finish torturing you!”

Kogen bursts from the smoke, wounded but still moving. He attacks, but Sasha punches him again before he can hit her, sending him crashing into the wall.

She aims her hand toward the floor in front of her. “Why don’t I try out one of my dark creatures on you? I summon these beasts from the very depths of Hell!”

A magic orange ring forms on a spot of the floor in front of her. A Hell Vulture rises up from it and takes flight. It’s somewhat larger than a normal vulture and is also covered with red glowing spots on some parts of its body. Its eyes glow with bright red fury.

“Go, my Hell Vulture!” Sasha commands.

It dives toward Kogen. He pushes off the wall to avoid the direct strike.

“I still have plenty of strength to fight and avoid attacks!” he shouts. “You’ve temporarily gained the upper hand but it’s all a mirage!”

Sasha licks her lips as she rushes toward him. “A bluff won’t save you.”

She punches him, then throws him upward into the air for the Hell Vulture.

“Sorry, but you are actually just my prey!” she declares.

The Hell Vulture grabs him and continues its flight.

“Slam him into the floor!” Sasha commands.

The creature dives and smashes Kogen into the floor, breaking pieces of stone.

“Damn it!” Kogen mutters as he rubs his forehead. “Huh!?”

“I’m not stopping!!” Sasha yells.

She leaps onto him and stomps into his gut, causing him to cough up even more blood from his mouth.

“I’m not helpless!!” Kogen shouts as he spits out more blood.

A wave of magic explodes outward from Kogen’s body. Sasha jumps clear and lands as he stands.

“I’m impressed,” Kogen admits as he wipes blood from his chin. “Your power is living up to the hype.”

A huge red aura erupts around his body.

“Try to dodge this!” he shouts as large energy spikes extend outward from the aura. Sasha starts jumping around to dodge them.

“These spikes could most certainly do some major damage,” she says. “You actually impress me with this!”

She tries to close in, but the spikes extend faster. One finally pierces her, striking the wound left by Emily’s Shadow Sword.

She coughs up blood.

“There it is!! A damaging blow!!” Kogen shouts with satisfaction.

The spikes vanish.

Sasha summons a Hell Lion and mounts it. The Hell Lion is slightly larger than a normal lion and is dark gray-colored with some glowing red spots on its body. Sasha forms a Dark Spear in her hand.

“Go, my Hell Lion!” she commands.

The beast lunges. Kogen blocks with a wave of magic energy, but Sasha leaps off and drives the spear into him, knocking him down.

“It was a temporary setback,” she says. “But now I will continue destroying you!”

She grabs him, punches him repeatedly, then slams him into the floor by the arm.

“This will hurt!”

She lifts him and punches him straight into the ceiling. A large Black Energy Ball forms and fires upward.

“No!” Kogen shouts with widened eyes.

The energy engulfs him and blasts through the fortress roof.

“Holy shit!” Joe shouts. “Sasha is so damn powerful!”

“You can say that again!” Kurt adds.

“I’m just glad she is on our side!” Emily says between clenching her teeth.

“If she weren’t, we would all be a pile of corpses by now!” Keith replies.

Zeth looks up weakly and smiles. “You’re doing… wonderful… Sasha…”

Kogen crashes back down, battered and broken.

Sasha sadistically smiles again. “That was the most power I have unleashed on you so far. But I knew you wouldn’t die. As I said before, I won’t let you die until I torture you.”

“Damn it…” Kogen groans. “I hurt… all over!”

He forces himself up.

“You may be an Enigmus, but you are still a mortal at heart,” Sasha says. “You will be tortured, and then you will die.”

“I accept it now,” Kogen mutters. “Your power is stronger than mine at my current level.”

“Do you know where the Dark Goddess implanted my demon heart?” he asks. “Right inside my right eye socket.”

He removes the eye patch. A glowing red demon heart beats where his eye once was.

“It didn’t replace my brain,” he says. “But it did become part of it.”

Sasha crosses her arms and narrows her eyes slightly, looking unimpressed. “So what?”

“It means my power will no longer be held back,” Kogen replies. “I will show you just how terrifying I can be when I unleash my Enigmus power!”

Sasha has shown her power and forced Kogen to unleash his greater Enigmus strength.
