Magus Supremacy - Chapter 595
Chapter 595: Becoming Harder!
Chapter 595
BAM!
BANG!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The stands quaked as Sera fought off multiple demons, struggling to lead the civilians to safety while fending off relentless attacks.
“Come on!” she roared, smashing a kick into the shin of one of the demons, then swinging her sword with brutal force. A yellow slash burst out, slamming into the demon and two others, decimating them cleanly in half.
‘Thankfully, I have a large reserve of Ki, but this doesn’t seem to have an end and it’s worrying. How many demons have we killed already?’ she wondered as she sidestepped, narrowly avoiding a claw strike that sliced through the air where she had just been.
‘About a hundred maybe? Out of five hundred. Damnnn! This is getting so annoying! I don’t want to use that attack; otherwise, my reserve would take a huge hit,’ she thought as she smashed a kick into a demon’s chest, sending it hurling away with immense force.
‘But even if I were to use that attack, it still wouldn’t be enough. I’d need power on the level of a Stage 8 or maybe Stage 9 warrior. Damn it! Why did the leaders have to leave now of all times?!’
BAM!
She was a second too slow as a demon’s kick landed square in her abdomen, sending her skidding several meters across the cracked ground. Blood dripped from her mouth as she groaned.
‘Damn it! Screw it!’ she snarled, snapping her fingers. Almost immediately, twenty Ki swords screamed through the air with terrifying speed, smashing into the demons around her and tearing through their heads before fading into glowing dust.
‘If we’re going to take out all four hundred demons, I’ll need Rivock, Grey, and Kent’s help so we can destroy them in unison. But Rivock already used that attack once, and his reserve must’ve taken a huge hit.
If he does it again, we won’t be able to face that echelon when it appears. We need every ounce of strength we can get. But if I decide we should take them out the old-fashioned way—one at a time, we’ll still burn through our Ki too quickly. Damn it! What the hell do I do?
Without the leaders here or even the vice principal, the safety of this academy and its students falls on me. And now I don’t even know what to do anymore!’
“ARGHHHH!” she screamed in frustration as Ki swirled around her feet. Like a silent storm, she blitzed toward a dozen demons, leaving a trail of smoke and shattered stone behind her.
Reaching them in a flash, she slammed her sword into the ground, unleashing a massive wave of energy that sent the creatures tumbling backward. Without wasting a second, she bolted forward again.
Leaping high into the air, she appeared above the group and swung her sword down with every ounce of power she had. A massive slash of Ki exploded outward, crashing into the demons and tearing them apart as a gust of wind erupted from the impact.
She landed with a slight huff, scanning the coliseum around her. Despite her relentless effort, the number of enemies refused to dwindle.

‘Damn it! My body aches. I can’t even move fast enough,’ Noelle croaked, watching helplessly as a massive foot rapidly approached her face.
Suddenly, something whooshed past—slamming into the demon’s body and sending it flying backward, away from Noelle, just before its foot could hit her.
“Wh…who or what was that?” she muttered as she slowly stood up, her eyes widening when she saw another red band student riddled with injuries but still standing firm, glaring daggers at the demons.
“Are you okay, Noelle?” the red band student asked without even glancing back. His tone was firm, but his attention stayed locked on the demons in front of him.
“I… I’m fine. Thank you,” she croaked out, tightening her grip on her whip. “Two were too much for me. You think you can handle one? Let me take the other.”
“Sure thing,” the red band replied instantly, and without hesitation, he dashed toward the two demons just as they bolted toward him.
But before they could reach him, Noelle’s whip lashed out like lightning, wrapping tightly around one of the demon’s claws that was heading straight for the red band.
The whip coiled around the demon’s arm with a harsh snap, and Noelle infused a surge of Ki through it. Then, with every ounce of strength she had left, she yanked it forward, causing the demon to lose balance and swivel around the red band in a blur.
Meanwhile, the red band himself clashed with the second demon, his sword colliding with its claw in a violent spark. The clang echoed across the arena as he grunted loudly, his feet grinding into the ground from the impact.
‘This is becoming harder by the second,’ Noelle thought as she raised her whip high above her head, just in time for the demon’s claw to slam into it, making her hands rattle from the force.
But she didn’t falter. She immediately spun and smashed a Ki-infused kick into the demon’s abdomen, sending it skidding several meters away as the ground cracked beneath its sliding body.
Without wasting a moment, she dashed forward again, her whip cutting through the air in a sharp, straight line toward the demon. It tried to raise its arms in defense, but the whip twisted midway, suddenly changing direction. It came swinging from the side, smashing brutally into the demon’s ribs and lodging deep into its flesh.
‘I’ve never wished to be a Stage 5 warrior as much as I do right now,’ she thought bitterly, sweat dripping from her forehead. ‘If I was one, I would’ve learned the clan’s secret technique already. It would’ve been so damn helpful right now.’
With Ki coursing wildly through her veins, Noelle tightened her grip, veins bulging on her arms as she lifted the demon completely off the ground using her whip. Then, with a loud, bone-shaking bang, she slammed it into the earth with such force that the ground caved in instantly.
A massive gust of wind exploded outward from the impact, sweeping across the stands and flinging debris and shattered stones in all directions.
