Chapter 377 Moving On Part 6
CRAAACK!
The window shattered, and a figure dropped down with a loud crash, sending dust everywhere. As the dust settled, Reign saw something strange and frightening.
It was a monster with a humanoid body, but its head was of a crow.
The monster's eyes were red, and its beak was blood-red. Its skin was covered in jet black feathers, and its arms looked like bird wings.
CAW! CAW! CAW!
The monster let out a harsh caw. It flapped its wings, causing the feathers to rustle and flutter.
Reign's smirk grew as he looked at the creature. "Well, this is unexpected," he said, sounding curious .

The crow-headed monster tilted its head and fixed its red eyes on Reign. Its voice was a strange mix of caws and human speech. "You're not human, are you?"
Reign chuckled. "Oh, what gave it away?" he asked, his tone light but filled with sarcasm.
He recalled a system mission from a while back, mentioning a three-headed crow.
While he was pretty sure this wasn't the exact creature described, it might be related. He only had gotten one job from a darkened heart so far, which meant there was a special condition to get more.
"Since you're here," Reign paused, "Do you know anyone with a head like yours but three of them? "
The demon froze when it heard the question, its red eyes widening in shock.
"Why... Why are you searching for him? Demon King Ravenous?" The demon's voice trembled.
Just thinking about the three-headed Demon King was enough to shake it, as if it remembered something terrifying.
"Oh, I plan to kill him. He's just a side mission for me," Reign said with a confident smile. He was surprised to find out that his target was a Demon King, but he figured that with such a tough challenge, the reward would be just as big.
The demon's eyes widened further, its shock evident as it tried to process such bold and audacious words.
"Kill him? A side mission?" it repeated, disbelief creeping into its voice.
The crow-headed demon's eyes widened in surprise as the projectiles sped toward it.
It tried to control the feather, but felt disconnected.
Cautious, it flapped its wings to intercept the attack. The projectile collided with the demon's own attack , causing a burst of dark energy to explode around it.
The demon staggered, momentarily disoriented. Reign seized the opportunity, rushing forward .
He aimed a powerful kick at the demon, but the creature quickly recovered. It raised its wings to block the blow.
BOOOOOM!
When the kick landed, the demon was hurled through the air with immense force. It crashed into the wall at the end of the warehouse with a thunderous bang.
Dust and debris flew everywhere, covering the ground with bits of broken wall and shattered feathers.
The demon struggled to get back on its feet. Its black feathers were ruffled and scattered from the impact.
CAAAAW !
It let out a harsh caw, shaking its head as if trying to clear its dizziness. Its dark aura flickered, and it had trouble holding its feather as it slowly pulled itself away from the wall.
'What was that attack? 'It had never imagined that a single kick could send it flying like that.
"W— What are you?" the demon asked.
It had fought other demons and powerful hunters before, but this was the first time it faced an opponent whose strength it could not explain. There was no special technique or energy in that kick, just raw, overwhelming power.
"Me?" Reign pointed to his face, his expression thoughtful. "Let me think..." He paused, a grin spreading across his lips as an idea popped into his head.
"I am..." he said, his voice becoming deeper and more powerful.
"THE EXECUTIONER OF ALL EVIL !" he declared.
A golden sword appeared in his hand, followed by a brilliant light that surrounded him and transformed his body into a figure of divine power.
Pristine white wings spread out from his back, glowing with a dazzling golden light. The brightness was so intense that it felt like a piece of the heavens had come down.
The demon recoiled in fear, its negative energy shrinking away from the overwhelming light. It felt as if the divine power was extinguishing its own existence.
