Detective Dickson 4 : Shadow of despair

The Demon Lords II

Kari and Ron just stared at the supposed demon Lord who kept rolling on the floor, his screams were getting louder and thanks to the hyper senses that a lycanthrope possesses, the screams kept getting unbearable.

"I won't stand for this crap, these kid needs to grow some balls, I am not getting rid of the light" Ron says aloud.

"He doesn't look like he will stop soon, being an elite lycanthrope, your senses are far sharper than the average werewolf, you sure you can stand his screams" Kari says with a sly grin.

"Ooh please, there's a reason I am called who I am, what's a little kid's cry" Ron smirks at her.

"Ooh, I would love to see how long you last" Kari smiles.

Four minutes later

"Ooh please, Kari, take away the light, take away the light, take it away, I can't bear his screams not anymore, take the light away" Ron shouts aloud, he was now rolling on the ground close to Zhelka, Kari just watched the two of them, her face curved up in a smile.

"Boys will always be the same" Kari smiles as she stretches forth her right arm

"DIMWITIO."

As she casted the spell, the ball of light instantly vanishes from the room and it returned back to it's pitch darkness.

"Yaaaaay" The demon boy says happily as he gets to his feet, soon he was right in front of his holographic screen playing his video game.

"I thought you said you could endure a little kid's cry" Kari sneers at Ron, Ron who was slowly rising up from the ground, he had red all over his cheeks, he felt embarrassed, I mean who wouldn't.

"It's sort of a reflex action" Ron staggers as he get up.

"That's not a good type of reflex" Kari smiles at him.

Ron says nothing else as he gets to his feet

"Have you been able to find out what the kid is doing on his screen."

"Yes, he appears to be playing some sort of combat game, his avatar keeps dying though" Kari says aloud, her eyes still stuck to the screen Zhelka was using to play the game.

"Dang, blast it" Zhelka shouts aloud

"Why do I keep losing, why can't I win, WHAAAAA, WHAAAAA WHHAHHA" just like that, Zhelka burst into an episode of tears which was louder than his first demonstration when they had arrived earlier.

"d**k is such a lucky bastard, I wish I was the one who partook in that challenge" Ron says aloud as he blocks his two ears with his hands but he could still hear the sounds.

"Well, from what I can gather, if you help him pass the level of this game, you might get his tears to stop" Kari smiles at Ron.

"I am not doing s**t" Ron says aloud with an annoyed tone.

"Well, my sense of hearing though very sharp is inferior to yours, you are the one who's gonna suffer at the long run but sure have it your way" Kari smiles at him.

"Fine" Ron shouts aloud so much that Zhelka's tears stopped, his attention was now focused on Ron.

"Which game is that" Ron says moving closer to him.

"D.E.V.A legacy" Zhelka says with an unhappy expression.

"Haven't heard of that, why don't you settle for a nice Grand theft auto" Ron says crouching down to even his eye level with the demon.

"I have completed all the games with storylines all over the multiverse, only this remains, I want to complete it before Dad's presence comes back" Zhelka says his lips now curved up in a depressed formation

"He never lets me play video games, all he wants me to do is work work work, always ordering me to see to the demon horde, I am sick of it, I want some me time too."

"Well, if that's the case, how about we both play this one together, I am a noobie so you are gonna have to show me the ropes" Ron ends with a mild smile.

Zhelka's face was now turned up in a doggy eyed expression, joy apparent on his face.

"Wow, that's so sweet, no one has ever offered to play a video game with me, thank you very much" Zhelka says aloud, red all over his cheeks.

"Well, that's cause you never met me" Ron smiles back at him, pointing over to a console

"Can I use that?"

"Sure, you can" Zhelka grins.

"Thanks"Ron says with a mild smile as he grabs his console, as his hands touched the console, there was a notification on the screen showing that a new player had joined.

"DO YOU TWO PLAYERS WANT TO PLAY THIS LEVEL TOGETHER. Y OR N" came a notification on the holographic screen.

Zhelka turns at Ron as if waiting for him to give an answer.

"Hell f*****g yeah" Ron grins at him.

Zhelka smiles as he clicks Y, the duo kept playing the game for a long time, they laughed continually, smiles beamed up on their faces and they looked like two kids who were playing their favorite games, Kari just smiled at them, there was a motherly smile on her face.

Moments after the duo had been playing the game, a notification came up on the holographic screen which says

"YOU HAVE COMPLETED THE GAME"

"Thanks so very much, having a game buddy means so much to me" Zhelka says in Ron's direction.

"It's my pleasure, this game is great, though I am unfamiliar with the console, it doesn't exist in my universe" Ron says still looking at the console, it was very small, no bigger than a medium sized cup, it was cube shaped and was constantly giving off green colouration, the console was so unique as it could play any type of game no matter the modifications, it could play Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo games and any other game no matter what the game modifications were originally designed for.

"You mean the X-cubrit, I got it from uni..." Zhelka starts aloud but was interrupted by Kari.

"I think what he means to say is we need your help" Kari says aloud in Zhelka's direction.

"Sure, what do you want, I'd do anything for a game buddy" Zhelka smiles.

"We need your demon army, we are facing Meglor" Ron says clearing his throat.

"Ooh, that shadow guy, Dad told me tales about him, he's bad news" Zhelka says dread creeping on his face.

"We know, we feel he's responsible for the disappearance of the mistresses and gods, one of my comrades sacrificed his life to save us, we need to return the favour by bringing this fiend down" Kari says aloud.

"Well sure but it's gonna cost you" Zhelka smiles.

"And what's that" Ron asks.

"One more game" Zhelka smiles.

Alma steps through the portal, she gazed around the scenery where she was, it was full of waste and a large bright coloured coliseum standing about hundred feet tall stood directly in front of her, Jenkrov steps through the portal, instantly, the portal disappears.

"Is this where we can find the demon Lord in charge of the violet district of the abyss" Alma asks.

"Yes, like most of the other Demon lords, when they found out that they couldn't feel the presence of the god's, they scattered themselves around the multiverse and having fun, the one we are about to meet is a fan of watching different combats" Jenkrov answers showing his huge set of vampiric fangs.

"Well then, let's meet this demon Lord, what's her name?" Alma asks.

"Seriin" Jenkrov answers.

"How do we get into the coliseum, I don't suppose we'd walk" Alma says.

"This is the 21st century, no one does that anymore, we'd just teleport" Jenkrov answers with a smile, in a flash, the duo disappear from the area.

Inside the coliseum, there was a large space where creatures of all sizes, colours and with various forms of weapons were fighting, surrounding them sat a huge crowd of various creatures screaming and cheering frantically, in the midst of the crowd, a purple haired female stood out, she had black lips and long sharp teeth, she was dressed in a short skimpy red dress which revealed a lot of coverage.

"Kasuln, show them, show them the might of my champion" the purple haired female screamed aloud, as she screamed, Jenkrov and Alma appear directly in front of her.

"Heey, get your disgusting bodies away from my face, you are blocking the show" The purple haired female shouts aloud.

"You are Seriin right" Jenkrov asks.

"Yeah, who's asking" she says with a bummed out expression.

"Comrades of the reputable Alpha-human" Alma cuts in.

A smile appears on Seriin's face, it was really creepy

"Ooh, you mean d**k, Irv told me so much about him, is he really so cute, she also said he's got a big d**k which is ironic cause his name is d**k too, I'd like to see him fight in my coliseum naked with Kalsun, I wanna see who's stronger."

"I am sure the mortal would like that too but he's dead" Alma says with a downcast expression.

"Who killed my d**k" Seriin shouts aloud.

"We suspect it's the same person that's responsible for the disappearance of the gods, Meglor" Alma answers.

"Ooh, that good for nothing impudent joy thief" Seriin says as she bursts into tears

"Ooh and I promised my champion a good match, he's sick of fighting all these third rates, what am I gonna tell him now."

"How about I entertain your champion" Jenkrov says with a low bow.

"Hmm really, you don't seem like someone who's involved in close quarters, you move like an assassin, I can't hear your footsteps" Seriin says focusing her attention at him.

"Well, I was Master Alucard's personal Butler, his father turned me and I had many spars with him in the past" Jenkrov replies.

Seriin's face lit up, she was smiling mischievously

"Really, you mean the legendary Dracula, the one who communicated with Gods and mistresses like equals, how many times did you win.'

Jenkrov's face turned downcast immediately

"I never won, I was never even close to a stale, the thousands of times we fought, he pinned me easily."

"Owww, that's a bummer" Seriin says wearing a disappointed look as she takes her eyes off Jenkrov

"I don't suppose you'd still be able to entertain my champion."

"You can try me, may I know his physical stats" Jenkrov asks.

Seriin's face lits up with smiles as she now turns to Jenkrov

"He's a causal Galaxy buster, he once punched a supergiant red star to smithereens, he's simply amazing for a demon."

"Really, that's all, like he hasn't done better" Alucard asks with a dejected look.

Seriin's face curves into a wider visible surprise

"Wow, you are not amazed, well he can move Lict 8, try and beat that."

"What's lict?" Alma asks.

"It's a term which is used to describe seven hundred thousand times the speed of light" Jenkrov answers nonchalantly.

"Someone is a nerd" Seriin grins.

"No offense but that speed is unimpressive, Master Dracula could move at Lict nine million and that was when he held back, I never saw him go all out" Jenkrov answers.

"I don't understand, if you all can really move that fast, how are we able to see the battle in the arena" Alma asks.

"Ooh that's easy, darling" Seriin says rising to her feet, then she points to some talismans surrounding the arena

"Those lovely shaped things enable my crowd to watch the battle at their own pace, well, it's no problem for me, keeping up with my champion's speed is no problem."

As soon she had finished talking, a muscular grey creature with two large bulging eyes who was holding a metal battle axe raised his left arm, it was about ten feet tall, all the other combatants in the arena were lying on the ground, they had been defeated, some had their skulls meshed in and most their bodies were broken but one thing applied to all of the ones who were on the floor, they were all unconscious.

"Hey, Kalsun darling" Seriin calls out to her champion

"Elfie here..." she says pointing to Jenkrov

"...Wants to have a battle with you, would you mind entertaining him."

"RRRR RRRRRR RRRRR" the creature says aloud.

"Uhuun uhuun uhuun" Seriin smiles, she appeared to be communicating with Kalsun but no one understood the two of them as everyone even in the crowd had confused looks on their faces.

"Okay" Seriin smiles now turning at Jenkrov

"He says he would spar with you but he's really hoping you ain't a disappointment, he says you don't look too strong."

"Hmm, did he really say that" Jenkrov asks.

"Yeah" Seriin answers with a sly smile.

"Well, he is in for a surprise" Jenkrov says as he disappears from his location, he reappears in the arena right in front of the monster.

"RRRR RRRRRR" Kalsun shouts aloud as he sees Jenkrov in the arena.

"LET THE BATTLE BEGIN!!!" Seriin shouts aloud.

"Is that really what he said" Alma asks.

"Na, he said it's his funeral but that's how we celebrate everyone who leaves here, they are always in a casket, whoooo" Seriin says aloud with maniacal smile.

"Jenky, be careful" Alma says with a fearful expression.

Kalsun dashes at Jenkrov but Jenkrov evades easily.

"Come on, you are the champion of this arena, can't you do better?" Jenkrov asks with a smirk.

"RRRRR" Kalsun shouts aloud as he swings his axe at Jenkrov but it was caught midair, Jenkrov holding the axe uses that opportunity to leap over it, removing some daggers from his garments, he throws it at Kalsun, Kalsun dodges it easily, he was expecting Jenkrov to be in front of him.

"Expecting me to be in front after using the daggers as a distraction, that's a cheap trick" came a voice behind him, Kalsun turns but almost immediately he collapses to the ground.

"That will keep you stunned for a while, I am over five hundred million years old, you can't expect me to resort to predictable tricks" Jenkrov smiles as he now turn towards Seriin.

"Did you kill my champion" Seriin asks, her face curved up in a mournful expression.

"Negative, I just put him to sleep, since I entertained your champion, may we request your aid in defeating Meglor" Jenkrov asks.

"Provided my champion is still alive, we definitely have a deal" Seriin smiles
