Demonic Pornstar System

Chapter 758: Eclipse’s First Hunt

Kaiden’s greatsword punched through the cracked plate on its right shoulder and sank deep enough to anchor him. The Gluttony field ignited on contact, stolen mana flooding through the gauntlet and into his body, raw and mineral-tasting and enormous. He braced his legs against the creature’s spine, pulled the blade free, and swung again. A second plate split apart beneath the edge. A third fractured on the backswing.

The Granite Tyrant thrashed beneath them, slamming its body against the rock shelf hard enough to shatter stone, trying to scrape the two parasites off its back. Kaiden rode the impacts with his knees braced, his gauntlet used to create binds that held him in place. Calypso didn’t even try to hold on properly, she just kept swinging, letting momentum and her own grip strength handle the rest.

It charged.

"Wrong choice, stupid rhino." The gremlin grinned, lightning charging up. "I might be the smallest, but I’m also the fastest!"

Luna flickered sideways so fast she left an afterimage. The ram struck empty air and carried the beast forward into the rock face with an impact that shook the ground.

Frustrated, it dropped.

Kaiden read it before the first shoulder dipped.

"Nyx!"

The spatial catch came mid-ascent. The sensation of falling simply stopped, and Kaiden hung suspended twenty meters above the battlefield with a demoness under his arm and the Granite Tyrant rolling uselessly below them, grinding its wounded hide against stone that wasn’t going to help.

Kaiden shifted to Pride. Gluttony dissolved and arcane glyphs spiraled outward from his free hand, the stolen mana becoming ammunition. He fired downward. Concentrated arcane bolts cratered the defenses Calypso had already weakened, punching through plates that had been cracked by her axe and his greatsword.

Four ranged sources pouring destruction into a creature that had thrown itself onto the ground to escape two melee fighters and instead given four shooters a clear target.

The Tyrant found its feet. Whatever survival instinct drove a creature this armored overrode the pain, and it hauled itself upright through sheer mass and fury.

Kaiden landed clean on the creature’s shoulders and shifted to Gluttony the instant his feet touched hide, his greatsword sinking into a wound he’d carved earlier. Calypso hit the neck instead of the spine, slid two meters across the beast’s thrashing hide, buried her axe into a gap between plates to stop her slide, and started swinging from there.

The barrage from above didn’t let up either.

So it ran.

Nyx couldn’t stop it. A level 78 apex predator resisting with everything it had was so far above her power that trying to grab it directly would have burst every vessel in her skull before its stride even slowed. She’d learned that lesson early.

A rock the size of a skull was tossed beneath the Tyrant’s front foot mid-stride. The beast’s weight came down on it wrong and its leg buckled, costing it a half-second of momentum.

The Tyrant staggered. Its charge turned into a lurching scramble, legs fighting for purchase on ground that kept betraying it, Kaiden and Calypso still on its shoulders, still cutting, still draining. Its shell was in shreds. Its mana reserves were gutted. Every step sprayed blood from wounds it couldn’t close.

And while it stumbled over a floor that wouldn’t stay still, Nyx reached out with her other hand and grabbed Luna.

Then Nyx angled her hand downward.

"All extras off the stage! Main character coming through!"

Calypso threw herself sideways off the Tyrant’s shoulders, cackling. Kaiden was already clear, having jumped the instant Luna’s speck started growing larger against the sky.

The Stormblade hit the crown of the Granite Tyrant’s skull at terminal velocity, augmented by every point of Agility and Storm energy Luna could channel into a single downward strike. The blade went through skull, bone, and brain.

The fight had lasted forty-one seconds.

[You’ve gained 1,420,000 XP]

[Level 56 | XP: 2,350,000 / 57,000,000]

No level up just yet... Fifty-seven million was a mountain of its own, and they were chipping away at it one kill at a time. But 250 competition points from a level 76-100 monster just got added to Eclipse’s total, and the gap between them and the rest had gotten even wider.

Luna pulled her Stormblade from the skull with a wet crunch and wiped the ichor off on her pants.

The chat detonated.

Kira looked at her sister. Rika looked back.

And in offices, guild halls, private estates, and war rooms across six continents, people who had been watching quietly for a very long time leaned forward in their chairs.

Author: The competition arc is over soon... Really this time... Pinky promise.

Thanks for all the support!
