Demonic Pornstar System novel Chapter 399

Chapter 399: Beast Mode

[Essence Siphon], the upgraded version of [Ravenous Bite], was a mighty one. Perhaps because the stance itself seemed to have synergized with the Blood Monarch’s Gauntlet, which somehow assimilated itself into his very body.

[Trait Acquired: Abyssal Strength]

Duration: 30 seconds

Effect: +70 Strength (Base 108 → 178)

The rush hit Kaiden immediately.

His body locked, and breath dragged deep into his chest as the Blood Monarch’s Gauntlet writhed along his arm. The veins burned black-red, spreading from his fingertips up to his shoulder.

His skin darkened with muscle lines sharpening beneath the surface. At the same time, his breath came out rough, half a growl.

Kaiden’s face shifted a bit as well; his cheekbones sharpened, jawline became harder, and teeth just a touch too pointed. One eye kept its human shape, while the other constricted into a monstrous slit.

Noticeable heat steamed off his body, carrying the smell of iron.

"Kai..." Aria whispered, shocked by what she was seeing. Her boyfriend was transforming into a demon right before her very eyes!

However, the transformation stopped. Kaiden did not turn into a monster; he merely adopted some of their traits, granting him strength.

During it all, he felt no pain, just a drastic injection of power. A heavy, coiled kind that begged to be used.

Kaiden rolled his shoulder once, then swung his blade a few times, testing the weight. The air hissed under the movement, sharp enough to draw startled looks from his allies.

The four remaining Ravagers charged after a mere moment of observation, not wanting to let him power up. It was obvious to their primal minds that ending his life was for the best. Kaiden moved.

The first swing wasn’t fancy. A single, heavy cleave aimed at four charging Ravagers. The result wasn’t a clean slice, however. Instead, it was more like a shockwave of brute force. The beasts jerked back due to their instincts forcing them to leap away. One of them tumbled before catching itself on all fours.

Thomas let out a breath that sounded half like a curse, half like disbelief. "What the hell did you just do?"

Kaiden, instead of answering, said, "The buff has only 25 seconds left! We must make the most of it!" and just like that, he darted forward.

The others moved with him.

Something in that display of his had reignited the team’s rhythm. Following his lead felt like the natural course of action to all six observers.

Diaz slid into the fray from the rear with his daggers flashing in quick arcs that aimed for tendons and eyes. Luna appeared from the flank, using her natural burst as the speedster of the group. Lightning was sparking around her legs as she cut across one Ravager’s back in a clean, shallow line.

But it was not enough to force the monster on the defensive. Instead, it took the moment to counter Luna, swiping at the girl. Kaiden adjusted immediately. His next slash came from below, targeting the monster trying to kill Luna. The impact sent its front leg buckling, the blade biting deep into its ribs.

Aria’s voice rang next, "Volley incoming!"

A second later, a wave of compressed moonlight slammed into one of the Ravagers, followed by Bastet’s answering blast. The smell of scorched flesh filled the air as solar fire tore through the creature’s skin.

Behind them, Nyx flicked her hands in quick gestures. Daggers of differing elemental imbuements appeared out of thin air thanks to the spell she cast, which she then willed to streak forward with her [Telekinesis].

The monsters were being pushed back. But the fight was far from clean.
