The dragon's harem

Merlin was floating away from the battlefield alone, focusing on her magic. The others watched Arad fight the horde of angels, devils, and demons all at once, and none of them could comprehend what they were seeing.

Arad would grab a horrifying demon by its tail and swing around like a toy, smacking a devil in the face and sending that bastard flying back. The flung devil would then hit a charging angel, only for Arad to appear behind the poor fellow and punch him to the ground so hard that he’ll bounce away.

An angel flew at Arad with zeal, swinging a golden sword with a massive spark of divine magic. [Divine Cleaver] At the same time, a devil burst from the ground and lunged forward, thrusting a trident engulfed in hellish flames. [Curse Splitter]

Arad caught the angel’s sword with his right hand and the devil’s trident with his left and engulfed in their divine curse magic. A brilliant flash illuminated the battlefield and the two almost shat themselves… Did he catch both attacks with his bare hands?

An ugly deer demon fell from the sky with a roar, swinging his disgusting arms down with clenched fists [Crusher]

It was then that the angel noticed, ^Where is his staff?^

The staff flew through the air, assisted with gravity magic, and smacked the demon in the face, throwing him off and making him miss Arad by several meters. Arad then yanked with his arms, snatching the angel’s sword and the devil’s trident with ease.

Arad’s eyes flashed around as he counted all of the devils, angels, and demons surrounding him. They can’t attack all at once because of their conflicting powers and ideals, but some are good at working together.

The angel expanded her wings and was about to fly away now that she had lost her sword, but Arad pulled her toward him with gravity magic and clenched two fists. One punch after the other, all directed at her torso, each hit exploded into a massive shockwave powerful enough to send shivers down anyone else watching.

The angel’s armor cracked as she was stuck between Arad’s fists and his gravity pull.

The devil from earlier bashed Arad with his shoulder, trying to give the angel a breather, but he didn’t know he’d end up smacked to the ground with a spinning scissor kick like he was a soccer ball.

The deer demon charged from the side with its head reeled forward, ready for a powerful ram. Arad, with a smile on his face, returned the headbutt, caving the demon’s skull and shattering his horns.

As the demon fell to the ground, the angel barely stood on all four, blood gushing out of her mouth. Her divine magic sparked, trying to heal herself and the two assisting her. But it was then that Arad appeared beside her, swinging his staff like a golf club, and smacked her in the head and sent her flying through the sky.

[RISE HELL] The devil, who had been lying low after getting his spine snapped by Arad, finally made a move. The ground shattered beneath Arad’s feet, and fire was about to rage out. But… Arad suddenly disappeared and only left a shockwave behind.

The devil caught a glimpse of Arad holding his staff and running backward faster than the speed of sound several times. His eyes opened wide and his pupils spazzed as he tried to follow Arad’s moves but failed. Arad had already knocked down two devils, an angel, and three demons.

Those angels and devils couldn’t believe it, and the demons didn’t have the energy to think. The blood and divine war had been raging for thousands of years… but now they are forced to work together to face a single man, who seems to be toying with them.

Sara watched with a sweaty face, all of those devils were far stronger than her and her brother. The angels, as well, were terrifying. Their divine power far outclassed most mortals and is enough to slay several powerful demons and bring terror to the hells. Even the demons, if any of them where to show up anywhere but the abyss, chaos would ensue and many would die.

Sara didn’t know what was scarier, Arad smacking all of those on his own, or Merlin, who summoned them.

Lunara looked at the battlefield with a worried face. “Luckily, there is no demon lord among them, just higher demons.”

“And I don’t see any Archdevil or Archangel.” Sara looked at her, “But those aren’t weak, are they?”

Lamy and Roberta were hiding behind Tina and Eris, “Master, is that powerful?!” Lamy cried with a terrified face. She knew that Arad was extremely powerful. She saw him obliterate a whole hell layer and two demon lords after all.

“Master is powerful indeed. But I didn’t know Lady Merlin could summon such a force.” Tina looked at Frida and Astrid, neither of whom seemed to know about this, even though they were helping her prepare.

“He was… this strong?” Matilda gasped as she watched Arad punching his way through the horde of angels, demons, and devils like a raging bull through tall grass. Soon the angels divided into two teams, a large and a small one.

The small team of angels, consisting of ten of them, flew into the sky and flapped their wings. Each one had a pair that was at least fifty meters wide, and those wings only grew large as they flashed with divine power.

It was clear from their formation, this was a ritual spell of some sort; they were pouring their powers together to generate one massive attack.

The heavens above them cracked, and both the demons and devils ran away for their lives, leaving Arad alone beneath the glowing circle of angels. “This is bad…” Kali growled, lifting her hand and about to knock the angels to the ground. But at that moment, she felt a sharp pain in her head… ^Damn it, Yog!^ The sharp pain was enough to distract her long enough for the angels to fire their massive spell down.

[Heaven’s Wrath] A powerful divine spell conjured by the combined power of several angels. It’s mainly used to whip large chunks of land, cleanse them of all evil… those whom the angels consider evil.

As the blinding light bloated the sky, flashing like a new sun had emerged out of the void, Arad stood alone beneath the falling golden stream of light, a fist clenched at his side.

The muscles on his arm and legs tightened, and the veins on them bulged. Without hesitation, he swung a fist at the sky, aiming at the falling wrath of the heavens.

CLANG! A light flashed, and the heavens’ wrath got flung right back at the angels. Doma had a large grin on her face, “Mere angels, not even archons dare bring divine punishment upon me? Dream on!”

The angels gasped as the heavens’ wrath exploded on their faces and flashed in a blinding light of pure whiteness. The devils and demons couldn’t believe their eyes; such an attack would’ve wiped them out. But, they didn’t have time to think, for Arad was already behind them, swinging a clenched fist at one of the devils.

The angels regrouped and discussed their next plan. Arad was clearly an opponent that would need an Archon at least to stop…but Merlin didn’t summon anyone of that level; she couldn’t achieve such a feat.

“We have to work together… we’ve no other choice.” The angels all grouped together and pulled a war horn. The demons and devils saw them and decided to do the same. It was unthinkable for a summoned being to attempt such a thing, but they couldn’t accept losing here, not with all three of their races working together.

Demons, devils, and angels banded together and were beaten by a single man. Such a disgrace couldn’t be allowed to happen.

Arad backed away and let them play their cards. Merlin still needed some time to finish conjuring her spell. He could already guess what spell she was going to use… and he sure loves to see her finally try that against him.

The angels, demons, and devils all disappeared in three flashes of light. In their places, only three individuals stood there, confused but well aware of the situation.

An angel woman with six pale wings behind her back, long golden hair, and a large greatsword latched to her back. The heavy silver piece she wore rattled as she turned aside, staring at the half-naked devilish woman beside her. “You stink.”

The devil woman was technically naked, wearing underwear of chains and had shackles on her wrists and ankles. “Said the one who smells sickly-sweet, disgusting to say the least.”

“We must kill him!” Behind them stood a tall woman who looked strangely human, except standing at eight feet tall and had an extra pair of arms.

“An archon, an archdevil, and a pseudo-demon lord.” Lunara growled and turned toward Kali, “Those ones before sacrificed a great deal of their power to call those three, went even to dismiss themselves which went against their contract with Merlin.”

“Is Arad in danger?” Aella asked, and Merida at the side growled, “That demon woman…she might be as strong as I am.”

The three of them looked at Arad and suddenly froze. “He…” The demon woman, “Could he be the one who fucked Alaric and Sawless?”

“Wait…” The devil woman recognized Arad’s face, his portrait was spread through the hells to warn devils from starting a fight with him due to how much collateral damage he might cause. And they were warned he the devil lord Alony. “This is a bad idea…” She growled.

The angel looked at Arad for a moment, she had seen him many times from Yog. She asked the goddess about him and was just told that if she happened to meet him on good terms, she had better be obedient. “But if you meet him on bad terms, then ready yourself for death.” She pulled her greatsword.

The archon looked at Arad, “Must we fight?”

Arad pointed at Merlin, “She summoned the angels, devils, and demons to stall me while she prepares a spell. If you’re willing to sit still and wait with me, then we won’t need to fight.”

The angel looked at him with a confused face. “You’re letting her finish?”

“I want to see what she can do.” Arad replied, and the pseudo-demon lord pushed the angel aside and approached Arad, whispering, “Say…is it true that you have connections to the goddess?”

Arad pointed into the distance, “You mean Kali?”

The pseudo-demon lord froze in place as she saw Kali standing on the horizon with a bunch of women.
