Hero Hack: Reversing Heroes and Raising Harem-Chapter 183: When the Ether Hits Different

Yellow Demon stood tall, blood still dripping from her forehead.

She grinned at the four men in front of them.

Her eyes glowed faintly with [Heavenly Demon Ether].

"Let’s go," she said, raising her twin swords.

Blue Demon cracked her neck and shifted her weight forward, her legs coiled like springs.

Her eyes burned with determination.

"Don’t hold back," she warned.

The four men stood shoulder to shoulder, each one smirking like a predator.

The one who had escaped earlier with [Shadow Merge] stepped forward, his eyes full of hate.

"You think you can just walk in here and kill our men?" he spat.

Blue Demon didn’t answer.

She lunged forward, her foot snapping out in a powerful kick.

But one of the men clapped his hands together, activating [Wind Repel].

A sudden gust slammed into Blue Demon, throwing her off balance.

She stumbled and crashed into the wall, grunting in pain.

Yellow Demon charged next, her twin swords flashing as she swung them in a deadly arc.

Another man with a cruel smile held out his arms.

A stone barrier rose from the ground [Earth Wall], blocking her path.

She slashed through it, but the delay was enough.

From the side, the third man pointed his fingers at Yellow Demon.

He released a stream of sharp wind blades [Gale Cutter].

They sliced across her arms and chest.

She hissed, blood spraying as she stumbled.

Blue Demon tried to stand.

But the first man lunged forward, his hand glowing with dark energy.

He slammed it into Blue Demon’s gut, using [Shadow Drain].

Her energy poured out of her body, leaving her weak.

She gasped, falling to one knee.

"You’re not so tough now," he taunted, his eyes filled with perverted delight.

"You’re just broken toys waiting to be played with."

Yellow Demon wiped the blood from her mouth, her swords trembling.

"Shut up," she spat.

The man with the [Earth Wall] smirked.

"I like it when they talk back."

The one who used [Gale Cutter] laughed, stepping forward.

"Look at them bleed."

"I want to see how much pain they can take before they beg."

Blue Demon’s eyes burned with fury.

But her body refused to heal as quickly as before.

She felt every wound, every drop of blood lost.

Her legs trembled, but she forced herself to stand.

"Don’t... count us out... yet," she growled.

Yellow Demon raised her swords, even though her arms shook.

"You’ll pay for every one of our sisters you hurt," she said.

The leader laughed, his [Shadow Merge] activating again.

He moved like a blur, reappearing behind Blue Demon.

"You’re too slow," he whispered in her ear.

She spun around, trying to counter.

But he slammed his hand into her back, activating [Shadow Drain] again.

She screamed as her energy drained, her legs buckling.

Yellow Demon tried to help, but [Gale Cutter] hit her from the side, sending her sprawling.

Her swords clattered to the ground.

The men moved in, their eyes hungry, their smiles wide.

"Looks like the fun’s about to begin," one of them said, voice dripping with lust.

Blue Demon clenched her teeth, her eyes blazing even through the pain.

"You think this is over?" she spat.

Yellow Demon forced herself to stand, her [Heavenly Demon Ether] barely flickering.

"You’ll regret this," she hissed.

The men only laughed.

The man with the [Shadow Merge] ability, leered at Blue Demon.

"Look at her," he said, voice low and thick with desire.

"Bleeding and weak, but still thinking she’s tough. I like it when they struggle."

Another man with [Gale Cutter] moved in, his eyes locked on Yellow Demon.

"She’s got that look in her eyes," he said with a grin.

"Like she’s already given up. I want to see that face up close."

The man with the [Earth Wall] smirked, cracking his knuckles.

"After this, they’re not getting up again," he said.

The fourth man with [Wind Repel] let out a slow, mocking laugh.

"Just like dolls," he said.

"We’ll break them down piece by piece."

Blue Demon glared at them, her breath ragged, her body trembling from the pain.

Yellow Demon struggled to stand, her arms slick with blood, her eyes unfocused.

Then suddenly—

A surge of power shot through both of them.

Blue Demon felt her [Heavenly Demon Ether] snap into place.

It flowed faster and stronger than before.

"What...?" she muttered, eyes wide.

Yellow Demon felt it too.

The [Heavenly Demon Ether] roared through her veins, pushing back the pain, the fatigue.

Her wounds closed, her body strengthening.

"This... is different," she whispered.

The men stepped back, confusion flashing across their faces.

"What the hell is this?" the [Gale Cutter] user shouted.

Blue Demon’s head snapped up, her eyes glowing with dark light.

"You wanted a fight," she said.

"Now you’re going to get one."

Yellow Demon’s smile was sharp.

"You thought we were weak," she spat.

"You were wrong."

The [Heavenly Demon Ether] around them began to change.

It shimmered, then darkened, becoming corrosive.

The air itself hissed as the energy ate into the ground, small cracks forming where they stood.

One of the men stepped back, eyes wide."What is that?!"

Blue Demon clenched her fists, feeling the power in her bones.

But she also felt something else.

A sharp, dangerous feeling in her mind.

She shook her head, but the sensation was there.

Voices whispered in the darkness, calling her to kill, to tear, to break.

"Not now," she muttered to herself. "Focus."

Yellow Demon felt it too.

The [Heavenly Demon Ether] crawled into her thoughts.

It urged her to destroy everything, to laugh while she did it.

She shook her head hard, biting her lip until it bled.

"No," she hissed. "I’m in control."

One of the men, the [Shadow Drain] user, grinned.

"Look at them," he said. "They’re losing it."

Blue Demon’s eyes snapped to him.

"You talk too much," she growled.

Yellow Demon’s hands tightened on her swords.

"Let’s see you laugh when we’re done with you," she said, her voice low.

The men tensed, their confidence slipping.

Blue Demon took a step forward, her [Heavenly Demon Ether] crackling.

"You wanted to break us?" she spat.

"Now let’s see how you handle us when we’re at full strength."

Yellow Demon smirked, her [Heavenly Demon Ether] burning in her veins.

"Get ready," she whispered.
