Chapter 280: Entering The Maze

Junk and the rest of the witch coven finally entered the infamous maze that they had been searching for so long. 

A bright and shining golden light shun on the Minotaur and his lady partners. 

So many doors appeared to be opening up for them and so many possibilities ahead, until…

“We are finally getting in!” The hybrid human-demon who often wore his Minotaur knight armor grinned as he ultimately stepped inside the threshold of his ancient and long-lost maze, only to discover that a certain Lord was waiting for them at the door.        

Monsoon! 

“This is a nightmare!” April shouted as she was still mentally processing that Lord Monsoon stood at the maze entrance under the city. 

Lord Monsoon had returned!

There was no explanation for it; he had simply returned after appearing inside the confines of the maze. Could it be possible that he came all the way here and waited for them to show up because he knew that they were going to come here in the first place? How was he still alive? Monsoon was that strong and resilient, and he proved it again, even after having seemingly been defeated by Junk and the others, but he was back, and he was back with a vengeance. 

How is he still alive after everything? 

“Never had any nightmares I couldn’t defeat before…” That was all that Junk had to say on the matter. He didn’t question the fact that Monsoon was back, at least not aloud. He acted as soon as he could and went to work. Junk’s maze was under attack, therefore, it needed to be protected. 

“Minotaur Knight Form!” Junk suddenly called out the name of one of his modes and his metallic knight armor was summoned right on top of him since he was only human. Well, that was no longer the case.   

He wore his shining black, red, and orange armor. 

“Nice armor, stud!” June—the lady Minotaur winked at him as he finished his transformation. June only had eyes for him.  

“I can see that everyone is ready…” September observed.

The battle began and since Monsoon was more offensive and intruding than ever, the group would be forced to use brute force as much as possible. It all started with April… 

“SPRING BLOSSOM!” She led everything by producing the first attack. In her case, she beautifully and spectacularly leaped into the air to perform her move—an impressively tall wall of green wood was shot straight to his face!

SWOOSH! 

Lord Monsoon was knocked back, violently, as well, however, once the wall of wood had fallen all around him after he pushed it to the side, he was still standing, and he was still marching toward the interior of the maze and making his progress for the Witch Queen coven.     

“What? My move didn’t stop him?” April began becoming nervous a lot.

“MY TURN—HALLOWEEN WIND!” As she just said, it was the case, it was September’s turn to make her move. She stepped in front of April and with her Autumn staff pointed right in the direction of the evil thunder swine, she powerfully unleashed a whirlwind of red gusts on him! The focused amount of wind energy hit him in the face like a beam of destruction! 

BOOM! 

Everyone thought for sure that this was over, but it wasn’t.  

Monsoon was still standing when the dust settled, much like it had been the case with April’s attack earlier.

“No, this can’t be…” September snorted.  

“Is that all you’ve got?” Monsoon teased the witch.

“How about a little more brute force, huh?” Brute force was pretty much all that June was familiar with, so she was seen charging past April and September, and it was her larger-than-life-long sword that she swung right at Monsoon…

“SUMMER BLADE!” and she hit him! She hit him well, right in the chest, with one powerful horizontal swing. Once again, everyone thought they had him for good, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. 

Lord Monsoon cackled. 

He laughed to her, right to her face.

It didn’t do anything to him, and the blade of her sword was stuck right into his torso. She tried pulling it back, but it didn’t work.  

“What?” 

“Such a weak sword,” Lord Monsoon commented. 

“I’m coming. June!” Junk was right behind her, and he wasn’t going to wait for another second before coming to her aid, which he did by charging headfirst with his horns! 

“AUTUMN LARIAT!” He shouted the name of his attack as he did everything he could to protect the members of his harem coven. 

“Junk—isn’t nice to see you again…” Monsoon commented, patiently awaiting the Minotaur to come to him. The dark lord didn’t bulge. He simply waited.

One second later…

Two seconds later…

Three seconds later, and…

BOOM! 

A large bowl of dust immediately formed all around the two of them as soon as he hit him with his horns during his lariat move! Meanwhile, September, April, and June coughed a lot thanks to that abdominal and overwhelming amount of dust sent everywhere in the maze. Slowly, but surely, the dust fell back down and Junk began being able to see again. He scratched his eyes and when the dust had gone away enough, it was already too late… He had hit Lord Monsoon with his horns, but as soon as he hit the target, he moved out of the way, unshaken and undamaged… 

Junk spun around and observed from a distance that Lord Monsoon appeared on the other side of the room, and he stood right behind September.

September! 

He caught her by surprise! 

Monsoon was on the move. It was his opportunity to go on the offensive, however, this time, he didn’t use this lightning to hurt the Halloween witch—instead, he was a lot tricker than that and as soon as he had the opportunity to do so, he tried groping her from behind! 

He couldn’t.

Since she was still a bit too far away from him, he summoned two massively large electric hands with claws constructed of lightning! 

The lightning hands rushed for her. 

“Ahn!” The witch squealed as the pig suddenly grabbed her gigantic breasts from behind using his lightning hands! When he did so, he pushed two of his fingers inside the nose-holes of her jack-o-lantern breastplates and reached her nipples—pinching them—teasing her all the way.

It was still not him touching her, but his electric powers. 

“September…” 

“GET AWAY FROM ME!” Infuriated by what Monsoon had just done to her, she raised her Autumn scepter high in the air and cast another spell. “HALLOWEEN WIND BEAM!” Casting her spell from behind without even looking at where she was aiming, September attempted to hit him with her wind beam…

She tried…

But she missed, unfortunately for her. 

Monsoon dodged her wind beam at the last second by stepping to the left a little, however, he never stopped teasing her by continuing to pinch her nipples while she was still wearing her breastplates.

“No…”  

“You missed me.” 

Lord Monsoon was about to start humping and molesting her from behind with the help of his lightning abilities. 

“Ugh… Let go of me…”
