Before the body even hit the ground, Max had already appeared beside the second devil. The second devil roared and tried to activate his devil bloodline. Crimson tattoos lit up across his skin, and dark energy surged from his body like burning smoke.
But the moment the Emotion Severing Path came down on him, his roar weakened. His rage faded. His battle intent got sliced apart before it could fully form.
Max's sword pierced through his chest. The power of the Emotion Severing Path flowed through the blade and spread through the devil's body. The second devil froze. His eyes widened. Then the light in them dimmed as his soul, emotions, and life force all got severed together.
Two devils died almost instantly.
The third devil stood frozen in place. His weapon was still half-raised, but his body no longer dared move. Everything had happened too fast. One moment, the three of them were laughing about robbing a newly arrived Primordial.
