Chapter 56: The Cold Hard Truth

After exploring more, I found a huge door in the sewers. It was too big to be a storage or any use for the sewers at all. I kicked the door down. "What... the hell happened here..?" Dead... Dead bodies everywhere.

The horror and dread took over my whole body.

"Zieglind..." A female voice was heard in the corner of the room.

I looked over to the side and found Yefa reaching for something. I ran over to her and held her hand. "What's going on Yefa? Where are the others."

"..." She simply pointed at the mountain of bodies laying beside her.

"Hey..." I checked her pulse its getting slower. "Hey, hey! Damn it. Heal, Great Heal!" But nothing happened. "What...? My skills are not touching the wounds in her body!? {Karmic Pain} Pa Ma Na Da Ba!" Nothing. It did nothing. "Why...? WHY. WHY! WHY?!"

"How does it feel?" A voice of a man was heard behind me. I turned around saw a man hiding behind his cloaked body and was wearing a mask. He's also a player.

"Are... Are you the one that did this?"

"What are you... Ah that. Yes, yes. Pitiful sight isn't it. For all of them and so are you. Clinging onto weakness, feelings."

"What the hell do you mean by that?!"

"Ah are you sure you should converse to me more? Looks like your plaything is broken."

Yefa's hand grabbed mine tighter. Tears ran down from her eyes. After a couple of seconds, the grip from my hand loosened. "No... NO! She's... Dead." Her cold body laid beside me. She's gone... She's gone... These words resonated in my head swirling around like a whirlpool of words. Its taking over my body.

"You're breaking I see."

"What the hell... Did you do to me?"

"It isn't me. Its you. You're emotiond are going out of control. I wonder what you saw in your eyes?"

"AGH!" I feel like my head is splitting apart.

"Master... Use us... AGAIN!" The souls of the Bloodlust was heard in my head talking again.

"But..."

"Your damn comrade just died Master! Use us... Revenge. REVENGE. REVENGE. REVENGE. REVENGE!"

"No... No!"

"I must put an end to this farce." The man casted a spell. "Spirit Eyes!"

I could feel another soul look at mine. Was it him?

"AGH! What... What the hell was that? Your soul... Looked back. You're the same as HIM! I can't let you go now! Mind Break!" He grabbed the air as if something was there. He gripped it tighter and tighter and everytime he did that, the pain in my head kept resonating again and again.

"Foolish... Master... You're foolish! Use us! Do you want to feel useless again? How you saw those two innocent arachnes died because you couldn't protect them?" The Bloodlust souls were raging inside of me.

"It... Was your own damn fault!"

"We know! That's why we're never going to let you feel that way again. Accept us... Take revenge for your comrades!"

"I... I accept!" A sudden burst of energy came through from my body. It blew away all of the furnitures and the dead bodies near me.

"D- demon! Demonspawn!"

"This feeling... Is the same as before." I looked at myself again. Its the same complete armor, my wings grew behind my back. The overflowing power. I love it.

[Skill is now completely unlocked. Armor of the Bloodfallen. Makes a part of the armor. Part of the armor will continue to expand depending on the user's capabilities. The system will automatically sort it out for you. Attracts high level enemies but low level enemies will run away from you. If you enter combat with low level enemies, their fighting capabilities will have a -20% effect on all their skills and status. Has 3 different sub-skills.

|Absorbant Body|

Once you reached a damage received limit, you can release shockwaves of energy received from this armor. Damage received will be reset to zero after activation.

Absorbant Body works with the other two skills. This skill can be held for 24 hours.

|The Wings of the One True Lord|

Able to fly freely. Speed while flying can be improved by any speed boosting skills whether its for ground speed boost or air speed boost. Once Absorbant Body reached its limit, you can activate The Wings of the One True Lord again to release a hail of blood shards from your wings. This skill can be activated even if the armor isn't activated.

|Domain of the Bloodfallen|

WARNING: ONCE ACTIVATED, NO ONE CAN LEAVE UNLESS YOU ARE THE LAST MAN STANDING! (Exceptions can be made if there are some situations that can't be explained or have a definitive ending.) Creates an inescapable arena. While inside of this arena, all of your status is 5% stronger. Every 20 seconds that passes in the arena will add another +5% ability boost. Maximum boost: 300%.

"Bloodfallen... Not Bloodstorm?"

"Demon! Stay the hell away from me!"

"Pay... For your sins."

"You're a menace to him... I'll put you down! 3 Layer Barrier!" Three golden circles enveloped his body. "This is the ultimate tactic! Perfect defense... And this... This is the perfect offense! Hi La Ma Ki Ru Ma Pa Ga Ha La Mu Ri Ha Na Ju Ma Ka Ba! ANKH OF THE GODDESSES!" A giant ankh appeared in the sky illuminating the cold, dark night here in Cagyer.

I looked up at the sky to see it being so massive. But after a couple of seconds forming, it shrunk down coming closer and closer to me.

"UGUAH!" The man coughed up blood everywhere and his left hand was missing. I didn't even do anything to him yet. "This sacrifice... For the Ankh of the Goddesses... Its worth it. You're too dangerous for him! Die demonspawn! SMITE THIS DEMON!"

A bright light came down upon me. "This... Is the power of the Ankh?" It dealt a combination of burn and coldness.

"HAHAHA! This is it! Die!"

"Stupid."

"Eh?"

I grabbed the Ankh he was so proud about and shattered it to pieces using only my hand. "There."

"The Ankh of the Goddesses... Destroyed... By hand? Impossible. No. No. No. This is impossible. This is an illusion, a mere dream!"

"Pay for killing my comrades. Yefa, Grecia, Zeta and Precia. This... This is for you." I punched his barrier and broke it apart in one hit. "That's one layer." Again. "That's two." And again. "That's the last one."

"Spare... Spare me!"

I grabbed his head and lifted him off the ground. "DIE." I squeezed his head using just my hand.

"AGH!" And in just one tight squeeze, he's dead.

[Leveled up to level 60. Level stolen from the two enemies you killed earlier will now be toned down. The first player kill you killed will transfer some of his levels to you as a sign of killing the first ever player you meet. Level stealing from killing players will now be distributed at random.]

[You've achieved Level 60. Status points will now be increased to 30 per level. This variable is not fixed and will continue to change depending on how you leveled up.]

[Do you want to get Level 60 rewards?]

"No." I dropped down to my knees. "Yefa... Precia... Greta... Zeta... I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." The rain fell down camouflaging my own tears. "This revenge is not yet over. Not yet... There's still that person alive."
