"Whoa!" Isa gasped, pointing directly at the Stray Devil with wide, sparkling eyes. "I see big boobies!!!"

I facepalmed so hard it actually echoed in the empty warehouse. Even Koneko briefly closed her eyes in pure exasperation.

Rias quickly stepped forward, her crimson aura flaring brilliantly to draw the Stray's attention away from her idiot Pawn.

"Viser," Rias declared, her voice echoing with the absolute authority of the Gremory name. "You have betrayed your master in pursuit of the lust-filled desires that have consumed you. In the name of the House of Gremory, and on behalf of your former master, you shall not walk out of this building alive!"

While Rias was giving her execution speech, I casually ran my eyes over the monster.

[Observe]

Name: Viser

Race: Mutated Devil (Stray)

Fame: Betrayed her Master

Level: 21

HP: 250

Mana: 185

STR: 16

END: 18

AGI: 12

INT: 13

WIS: 12

I almost scoffed. Level 21? Her Strength is a pathetic 16? I could probably beat her to death with my bare hands.

Viser threw her head back and let out a grating, hysterical laugh that completely ignored Rias's grand speech.

"Oh, give it up, you stuck-up little slut!" Viser sneered, her hands trailing deliberately over her own pale, bare chest. "You've always had it out for me!"

Her eyes darted past Rias, locking onto me with a predatory, ravenous glint. She licked her lips, her hands massaging her own chest in a grotesque display of arousal. 

"It's a shame, really, that there's only one male here tonight. I do so enjoy a good fuck before I chow down. Oh well... at least I'll have some fun before I dine on your flesh, Gremory!"

Without another word of warning, Viser's hands sparked with violent, purple demonic energy. She unleashed a barrage of magical beams, sweeping them indiscriminately across the floor.

"Move!" Rias shouted. She grabbed Isa by the collar, dragging her violently behind a thick concrete pillar as the beams tore through the ground.

Kiba and Koneko blurred out of sight, easily dodging the erratic blasts. 

The magical artillery slammed into the spot where I was standing, detonating in a massive explosion that filled the entire warehouse with a thick, choking cloud of pulverized concrete and dust.

"Shiro!" Rias screamed from behind the pillar, genuine panic in her voice. "Where is Shiro?!"

The smoke slowly began to clear.

I was standing in the exact same spot. A shimmering, translucent dome of golden light was just beginning to fade from the palm of my left hand.

[Lesser Ward] hadn't just blocked the attack; it had completely negated it. I hadn't even been pushed back an inch.

Viser's cocky grin vanished. Her eyes bugged out of her head as she stared at my completely unscathed clothes. "You... you're a human! How the hell did you deflect my magic?!"

"I'm not just some human," I said, letting the ward drop as the cold, biting chill of Destruction magic rushed into my hands. "My name is Shiro. I'm a battlemage. Don't you dare underestimate me."

I didn't give her a chance to cast again. I thrust both hands forward.

[Spell Cast: Ice Spike]

Two jagged, razor-sharp spears of solid ice materialized and shot across the room with the speed of bullets. 

They didn't hit Viser's chest; they hit the joints of her human shoulders. The ice punched cleanly through bone and muscle, instantly severing both of her human arms.

Viser let out an ear-piercing, blood-curdling shriek as her arms hit the concrete.

I didn't stop. I drew the Dwarven Sword in my right hand, the golden metal instantly humming with its innate shock enchantment. 

In my empty left hand, I primed a [Lightning Bolt]. With my Agility at 40, I crossed the distance before she could even finish screaming.

Desperate, Viser swung one of her massive, muscular lion legs, trying to swat me away like a fly.

I ducked under the clumsy swing, pivoting on my heel, and brought the heavy Dwarven blade up in a brutal, sweeping arc. 

The steel sheared cleanly through the beast's thick hide, lopping the lion leg off at the knee.

As she collapsed sideways, throwing her off balance, I slammed my left palm directly against her beastly torso.

The Lightning Bolt discharged point-blank. Viser screamed again, her entire body convulsing as the high-voltage spell roasted her internal organs, dropping her heavily to the floor. 

I immediately bounded a few meters backward, putting distance between us.

Before Viser could recover, a small blur dropped from the ceiling.

Koneko landed perfectly, twisting her hips, and drove a devastating, aura-infused punch directly into the Stray Devil's chest. 

The sheer kinetic force of the Rook's strike sent the massive chimera flying through the air, crashing hard into the far wall of the warehouse.

"Look out!"

I glanced over my shoulder. Viser's severed arms, animated by her lingering, mutated demonic magic, had sprouted fleshy tendrils and were currently lunging straight at Rias from the floor.

Rias raised her hand to cast, but Isa actually beat her to it. 

Moving on pure reflex, Isa stepped in front of Rias, her red gauntlet flashing as she punched one of the arms out of the air. 

A second later, Kiba blurred past, her broadsword moving in a silver arc that sliced the second arm into ribbons.

Pinned against the wall, bleeding out and missing limbs, Viser completely lost her mind.

"How?!" Viser shrieked, pulling herself up on her remaining three beast legs. Her eyes were bloodshot, completely feral. "How can I be losing... to a human?!"

She dug her claws into the concrete and launched herself into a full, desperate sprint straight at me. "I will dine on your flesh, little boy!"

She dove, her jaws snapping open, aiming directly to rip my throat out.

But when her teeth clamped shut, I wasn't there.

Viser crashed into the empty concrete, her momentum carrying her forward. "How is that possible?" she choked out, looking around wildly. "No human is that fast!"

"Up here."
