Following Daniel's attack, the Demon of Despair rushed at the discombobulated Duke at savage speed, but the instant the father and son both closed in upon the Duke, the man laughed, "Fools…."
Invisible chains shot out from various axes in the air, wrapping around the arms and legs of both Axel and Daniel at once, instantly immobilising them. In that moment, Axel's four limbs lit up with black flames of decay.
As if he were already prepared for that attack, and naturally he was… because he could see it all with his mutated Runic eyes.
The Demons' harrowing black flames were more than powerful enough to burn away even the Psychic-constructed chains, despite their pseudo-abstract nature.
As the invisible chains that bound Axel were burned to cinders, the effect of the Black Flames did not stop there; those demonic flames spread through all the chains, reaching towards the source, which was none other than the Duke himself.
