“HRRRRAAAAAA!!” you roar, gathering your ki in both hands. Tossing both orbs up, each separating into your Scattershots. Hundreds of blasts suddenly fill the sky over you, each one striking one of the Sangheili above. Your blasts all detonating near-simultaneously, cutting down thousands of them in a blink of an eye. But you don't stop there, spinning and firing Death Slashes in wide arcs around you, cutting down those on the ground as well. And in less than five seconds tens of thousands of spectral, consumed soul warriors vanish. Reduced to smoke, flying back off towards your left now. Turning that way, you start carving a path of destruction. Firing Death and X Slashes, Scatter Beams, Energy Javelins and Scattershots, you carve through tens of thousands of captured souls in seconds. The bodies of warriors past turning back to smoke, drawn back to their source of Demongo. Who, no doubt able to see or sense you carving a path through his summoned beings, shouts with increasing alarm.
“SSSSStop him! Don't let him clossse in on me!” he calls out, but as you get closer, something in his tone sets off your alarm bells. He doesn't sound as sincere as he did when you appeared, almost as if he's putting on an act. Perhaps trying to draw you in, to get you close enough to fall into some sort of trap. And as you cut your way through hundreds, thousands of beings a second, you draw closer and closer towards him. Only to suddenly have your instincts scream at you that you're in danger, leaping off the ground. Seeing a shadow that had nearly thrust a hand into your own shadow, but as you leapt into the air, your aura's blazing brightness dispelled your shadow instantly.
“Tch! Forgot that one.” you mutter, cutting down dozens, scores of Sangheili, Grey, and countless other beings you'd slaughtered in your time. Only for the mist to coalesce into a massive form, that giant lizard Nefarious had sent to New Salda with the crystals growing from it bellowing in challenge.
“GRRRREEOOOOONK!” it roars, then fires a red lightning-like beam of energy from its mouth right at you.
“Barrier!” you shout in response, forming your shield. Allowing the monster's attack to obliterate those try to approach, your ki shielding you from the blast.
