"Die, die, die, die!" A demon smashed his blood-stained mace against a large shield. A player with the Knight class fended off the mace strikes, but was pushed back constantly.
As the mace descended, the Knight sidestepped and drew his weapons, which he immediately slashed through the air towards the demon's face.
"Such pitiful attack!" The demon blocked the shield with his bare arm. The blade couldn't penetrate his skin!
"Eeek!" The Knight was utterly frightened and lost most of his fighting intent. "S-Someone, assist!"
After the shout, a powerful spell engulfed him and all his wounds healed miraculously. A small distance away, a healer blessed him with an increase in HP and a small strength boost.
The Knight felt invigorated but still didn't think there was any way to win against the demon!
The demon grabbed the shield, tossed it away with his pure strength, and backhanded the Knight across his face. The player was flung to the side of the building and was heavily damaged.
The demon rushed over to the fallen player, but before he managed to deal a finishing blow, a player with dual swords appeared in the way and slashed diagonally across the demon's body.
The sparks flew as the blades couldn't penetrate the skin!
It was hopeless!
However, the dual-wielding player didn't look frightened as he hurled himself forward with an even greater desire to slay the demon.
The demon fended off the swords with his blade, but there were two swords, and after one got parried, the second blade slashed down at his kneecaps, forcing him on his knees.
The player instantly took an offensive stance and drove the swords through the demon's shoulders. He was obviously very good at swordsmanship and very experienced.
After everyone saw his success in fighting the demons, the rest of the players put more effort into their fights, and the healers started healing the players with more motivation.
'Retreat, retreat, retreat, retreat...'
The demon heard the echoing voice but didn't care as his eyes were covered in blood. He wanted to tear the players apart and feast on their flesh.
"Aaaaaah!" With a thundering roar, he bolted forward and smashed his fist across the player's face.
The player fell to the ground with broken face and dropped his swords.
The demon mounted him, and hammered his fists down at the fallen player's face. The HP decreased drastically, but before he died, the demon took a bite off the player's neck and started munching on it like it was a delicious treat.
However, after two bites, the flesh turned to pixels and started to taste like rotten food.
"Ugh, disgusting!"
"A-Aaahh!" The player screamed with a frightened expression and vanished into pixels. His scream brought goosebumps to the players who heard him. They realized that this was what Gaia warned them about. The dual-wielding swordsman probably needs hundreds of hours of therapy to forget this experience.
The demon wiped his lips and looked around for his next prey. There were many players around, fighting against demons. He ignored the group of players, who worked well together to kill demons, and only targeted the solo players.
He rose to his feet and ran after his next target.
As the hours went by, the players started to see that the number of demons had drastically decreased. They even had to go look around other streets for any demons, but they couldn't find any. There were still a few rampaging demons who were being hunted down by hundreds of players.
They all started to feel a thrill, thinking that they had already killed all the demons!
But, they didn't notice that the demons had lurked outside of the Summer Realm and had left the World of White behind. They ventured to their spaceships, which they used to come here and retreat away from the world.
Lucifer, the Demon King of the First Heaven, hovered near the destroyed moon while receiving news that most of the demons had already retreated.
"It's time." He said and pointed his finger towards the faraway planet. His finger looked long and slender with a black nail.
"What about Asmodeus?" Mammon asked. Even though he hated him, it wasn't a wise idea to kill him.
"He won't die from this." Lucifer said. "This could be his waking call. I am tired of his lazy attitude."
There didn't appear to be any kind of sphere at the tip of his finger or some energy beam. Lucifer's attacks weren't fancy, but they were powerful.
"Vanish." It all took one simple word by Lucifer.
The massive World of White, covered in clouds and mist, started trembling like it was going to slingshot off its course.
All the cities crumbled to pieces, the skies started to fall apart, the ground cracked, and the mountains turned to ash.
The players screamed as they were crushed to pieces by the sudden increase in gravity. The entire World of White was... being destroyed.
Inside Zeus' crumbling palace, Asmodeus woke up as the gravity fell down at him like a never-ending punch. The bed broke underneath him and he fell through the floors like a falling meteor.
His scream of rage resounded across the air.
BOOOOOOOOOOM!
The rest of the world cracked in half and exploded like a supernova!
The broken pieces of the world flew into the distance like fiery meteors and slowly crumbled to pieces. The destruction of the world even affected the Four Seasons, where the wind started pulling trees out of their roots and oceans started turning upside down.
Lucifer's attire flapped like he was a mighty emperor.
"This is the power of Demons!"
The demons cheered inside their spaceships at the show of power. Their lost motivation returned with an even brighter flame!
The Demon Kings and Lords grinned at the sight. They all loved to watch some good destruction.
Lucifer turned half-way and turned his back to the destroyed world.
At that moment, a single voice echoed in everyone's ears.
"Life Unity!"
A bright green light engulfed the entire dark universe as the destroyed, dead planet of the World of White started slowly healing!
It was coming back from death, and only ten seconds later, the World of White had returned to its previous beautiful state with all the cities, realms, and mountains perfectly intact!
It was like the previous destruction was nothing but illusion!
Lucifer's gaze grew cold as all the cheering stopped immediately.
At the center of the World of White, at its core, a white-haired man slowly opened his eyes with a calm smile.
"I can also revive dead planets? That's pretty neat."
