[Ingra Kingdom, Capital]

At the middle of the streets two silhouettes can be seen engaging each other in a fierce fight to the death as there movements and clashes created more and more impacts every second

Such fast paced fights could end in any moment if either one of the sides made even a slightest mistake

Kaido slid down the alley as the demonic mantis rushed up to him and hacks down anything in its way, his arms are stained by his own blood as huge cuts can be seen engraved in his arms

"Tch! Those damn blades are sharper than I think they would be" reacted Kaido as he dodged every nook and cranny of the demonic mantis blades

As the demonic mantis jumped to land on top of him, Kaido immediately propelled him forward and dropped kicked the demon making it crash into the pavement

As it crashed Kaido slump down to step on the demonic mantis but the latter immediately maneuvered itself by twisting it's body and sending a slash above it

Sensing danger Kaido kicked to the side wall as he rickochetted himself from wall to wall making it hard for the demonic mantis to guess his next attack

In an instant Kaido quickly landed on the floor and bent down as he kicked the hind legs of the demonic mantis making the latter be airborne

As it loose balance Kaido spins and kicked it upwards sending it flying above him as he positioned his arms and fired a high intense flames straight at it

"Burn!" Murmured Kaido

Scrreeeeeecchhhh........

As the demonic mantis screamed flames immediately engulfed it as it burns it's body

As it burns Kaido teleported to it's side and punched it so hard that it crashed to multiple roofs before landing to the fountain in the square

***********

All this commotion didn't pass by the surrounding citizens and the castle, all the explosions and crashes especially the sound of the crowd being stirred up because of the fight all woke up and went to the scene where the fight is occuring

"General what's happening? Is it an attack from the demons?" Asks Princess Ingrid as she walks out of her room wearing a quickly assembled armor and a sword

"They must be sly demons to be able to pass our guard" said General Stone

As they turned to a corner princess Ingrid met up with the prince and the king

"Ingrid! At you going to the scene? It's dangerous out there!" Said the king as he ordered for his horse

"Father! I can handle myself! The citizens are in danger... As a royalty is is our duty to protect them" said princess Ingrid

Hearing her words the king smiled at how reliable her daughter have grown and allowed her to join him

At the back the prince smirked as he muttered

"I can't wait to see a commoners corpse in the streets.... Well this commotion is unexpected but I'm pretty sure he is dead because I know how terrifying is that creature is"

As they rode out of the castle and arrived at the capital they saw evidence of an intense battle as the alleyway are all scratched, the streets has full of holes and splattered blood and houses destroyed or damaged, all of these traces leads to the square as they hurried to the sounds of battle

**********
As the demonic mantis stood up Kaido hammered it with a rock he picked up from the sides

As kaido repeatedly hammered it the demonic mantis released an aura and sliced the rock to pieces

Using the sliced rocks Kaido compressed the debris to trap the demonic Mantis

When he did that Kaido controlled the water that was spread out everywhere and coming from the fountain to form water blades and punctured the compressed debris

Later on black blood could be seen oozing out of the rocks but the demonic mantis inside still didn't give up as it struggled

"This demon is much harder to kill than Rundel!!!" Complained Kaido

As kaido looked around he saw the people around the scene are getting crowded more and more

"This is not good... It's not killed yet! alright then time for the insect to die fast"

As the debris exploded the d Monica mantis sent out a slash which slashed the shoulder of Kaido

"Agh!" He cried

As this happened the royal family arrived at the scene and saw kaido getting slashed in the shoulder

"No!" Cried princess Ingrid

While the general gripped his sword and ready to charged in but the king stopped him as he sensed the dangerous aura that the demonic beast is sending out

"We can't do a thing!" Said the king

Hearing this princess Ingrid looked worried while the king and the general gritted their teeth and the prince chuckled In delight

But the next moment a barrier erected around the demonic mantis stopping it's advance

Seeing this Kaido smiled while snapping it's fingers

As he did that the components and matters surrounding the mantis started to change from ordinary elements and chemicals to something dangerous that put human kind into peril if it is used against them

All the hydrogen and air and matter around turned to one chemical and that is nuclear substance

With a little spark an explosion occured inside the barrier that it was so strong that it shook the earth and destroyed it's pavements and trembled the heavens

Seeing this phenomenon the whole crowd even the royal family was flabbergasted as they saw something more terrifying than a demon

"What! What kind of magic is this?" Asks the prince while he trembled from fright as he imagined that explosion directed at him

"Superb" exclaimed the king

"A national scale spell" reacted princess Ingrid

"National scale spell? Isn't that only exist in legend? How can that be?" Ask General Stone

As the explosion dissipated what remains of the former square is only a molting ground and toxified air

With a wave Kaido removed the remaining radiation in the square and toxins and replaced them with ordinary elements, also he cooled down the ground and turned the to cement as he fix the squares floor

Seeing Kaido able to destroy and fix things made all people commoner, noble, and royalty to fear him and also respect him

Because of this event Kaido's name became more proficient in the human territories making it reach the empire as the person who killed a demon single handedly with only magic
