Chapter 596 Lost his mind, huh?
The moment Kyle finished speaking, a cold aura emanated from his body, followed by icy blue flames that spread to envelop the entire sky. Both Ceano and Will stopped in their tracks when they witnessed the blue flames engulfing everything around them. A sudden realization dawned on them that the human had yet to reveal all his abilities.
Kyle clicked his tongue and took hold of the hem of his shirt to exchange the tattered one with a new garment.
"I said I made a small mistake. That doesn't mean I can't end you both."
He slid on a gray shirt over his lean and muscular frame and stared at Ceano and Will with an nonchalant expression.
"It's just that I have to fight a bit differently. I detest having to tap into its power because it can manipulate me, but well, I suppose I have no other choice."
He was talking about his bloodline. It's been a while since he last used the blue flames and the strength of his bloodline. Or should he say he stopped using its power after realizing it could subtly influence his thoughts whenever he was about to face a life-threatening situation. Kyle blinked, and the blue flames enveloped his figure. Ceano vanished from his position to reach for him, but his hands caught nothing but a chilling sensation that spread through his palm upon touching the flames.
"Where did he go??"
He shot a quick look back at Will.
"Find him! I have a hunch he's up to something again!"
Will nodded, and they both exerted their strength to quell the flames. But the more they attempted to extinguish the icy flames, the more they multiplied in all directions. It was as if they were endless.
Kyle released Alec, yet the man remained motionless, hovering in the midst of the flames surrounding them. Dread, fear, and desperation shrouded his face, which quickly paled, while a bitter yet twisted smile crept onto his lips. Carcel looked at Alec's state and took a deep breath. He then turned his gaze to the silver-haired man who had begun to leave.
"What the hell did you do?"
Kyle glanced back, noticing a flicker of anger in the dark eyes fixed on him. A smirk played at the corners of his lips. His mood lifted a bit, and he explained, not wanting the golden-haired man to curse him.
"Just a light punishment, firstly because he hid the truth from everyone about signing a contract with the dark side for some unknown reason, and secondly, because he inflicted harm upon my precious body."
He cast a glance at the blue-haired man who's face has turned even paler.
"Let him be; he's just facing his deepest fear. Now that he's under the shadow generals' control, it's best he stays in that nightmare until we are done with them."
Kyle was speaking the truth. He just used his fear skill on Alec to throw him into a nightmare. This was possible because even though Alec had reached the last stage of the supreme rank with the help of the power gained from the array pulsating in the sky, he was weaker than Kyle. This way, even if the shadow generals commanded Alec to do something, he would carry out that task within the nightmare.
Regardless, the silver-haired man couldn't help but wonder what the blue-haired man was experiencing in his nightmare to evoke such intense emotions on his face.
Carcel gazed at Kyle with suspicion. Yet he had no other choice but to accept Kyle's words because right now the silver-haired man was in charge of everything. He just hoped that whatever nightmare Alec was going through wasn't too much... but seeing Alec show such fear, he knew the man was experiencing something very severe. He snapped out of his thoughts when Kyle's voice echoed in his ears.
"Hurry up. Now that Alec is out of the picture, we need to eradicate the shadow generals. Or do you also want to face a nightmare like him? Because if you're not fighting with me, I'm sure I don't need you."
A curse slipped from Carcel's mouth, and after casting one final glance at Alec, he quickly followed the silver-haired man who had opened a small passage in the icy flames surging around them.
