Chapter 137 Battle Of Others 5



"With each beat of my heart, I offer up a piece of myself to the World Tree. And with this strike, I unleash all that remains within me."

"World Tree's Sacrifice."

With that slight mumble, the knight leader started shining brightly while his sword was anchored to the ground.

In front of him was Thomas, with his body covered with bright crimson scales that looked like a beast.

With a bright green aura shining over the knight, a beam of light suddenly stabbed the sky.

And laminated the scene around…..

Those black clouds that once filled with darkness were now illuminated with a bright green aura.

eαglesnovel`c,om Seeing the scene in front of him, rather than being scared, Thomas was now feeling agitated.

Agitated to fight the thing in his front.

"HERE I COME!"

With that huge blood swirling around him, Thomas rushed the knight, that was now entirely covered with the bright green aura.

/SWIRL/ /SWOOSH/ 

With a fast speed, he appeared in front of the knight and swung his Scythe, trying to attack the man.

"Huh?"

However, his attack hit nothing.

Just passing through the bright green light.

And to crown it all, suddenly, another bright light started shining through the carriage, illuminating the sky again.

"What?"

And before he could think about something, suddenly, that bright green light subsided, leaving bright green particles hanging around the air.

"Just what is this?"

"They are gone."

In that stupor of dumbness, a voice echoed from the weapon.

"What?"

Asking this, Thomas was surprised.

"Just as I said. They are already gone."

"Where?"

"I don't know. The moment that elf used his spell, the mana signature I was feeling in the carriage disappeared."

'Elf? They were elves, huh? That makes sense now that I look at the fight.'

Hearing his, Thomas was surprised, but remembering the magic the knight used, he understood.

However, his thirst for blood was yet to be satisfied.

"Then, what about the knight here? Did he escape too?"

"No. I know this spell. It is the spell that those proud elves would use as the last resource."

"What does it do?"

"It was a spell that sacrifices the blood of the user in exchange for a teleportation spell for another target."

"So, that guy used his own life to save the girl, huh?"

"Yes. That was why he shouted like that."

"Fuck…. They just escaped like this, huh? I want blood!"

"But, that spell only teleports one person at once. And only a strong sacrifice can be used."

"So what?"

"So, there might be someone other left in the carriage."

"Fuck… If not, then I need to use those products to satisfy my thirst."

Slightly mumbling that, he started walking towards the carriage with his fists clenched.

And, just as he reached the carriage, there he saw something he was not expecting.

A girl was sitting in the carriage with her hand holding a dagger….

A girl with her ears pointy, with her hair bright platinum.

With white skin and a slender body that looked like a little kid.

A girl with grey eyes that was filled with resentment.

"Ho? Look at this. What do we have here?"

Seeing the girl, he licked his lips.

"This girl is not the one I wanted…."

Hearing the sound coming from his weapon, he smiled broadly.

"I know."

"Then, you know our deal is yet to finish, right?"

"Of course. But that also means I can eat this girl, right?"

"Do whatever you want?"

'You stupid human. You have already become a slave for your desires. Do you think using my magic will not affect your mind?'

Of course, the evil spirit inside the weapon was also making plans.

No matter what, there is nothing that comes without a price, either it being comfort or strength.

At that moment, Thomas was already paying the price of the strength he gained with the blood magic he used.

The primitive desires of humans.

The price was that.

The more a person used blood magic, the more their primitive desires would increase.

The thirst for blood, the thirst and carnal desire to massacre and kill both of them would increase, making the person more savage.

In his mind, he had already discarded his brothers as food and a resource to satisfy his thirst.

He was no longer the same person he was before.

Thanks to the slight and subtle mind magic, the evil spirit inside the weapon accumulated.

If Callius were there, he would say: 

"This is why blood magic was considered taboo and mostly associated with people who were evil." 

"Because it disrupts the nature of humans, making it something more savage than any normal."

He would say something like this.

And just as this was happening, Thomas started approaching the girl.

"Come here…. Let me have a taste of you…. I heard elves' flesh would taste very good…."

At that moment, he was just a savage man….

A savage man that could not hold the leash of his desires…

Seeing this, the girl with pointy ears flinched.

In his eyes, that was both fear and resentment at the same time…

With her hands that were holding the dagger shaking….

However, even in such a situation, the girl didn't speak.

With her mouth shut, she just waited and waited.

"Heh…. Look at this. What are you going to do with this dagger?"

Seeing the dagger the girl was holding, he asked with a mocking tone.

"The knights that were supposed to protect you, they are all dead. And you were left alone instead of the girl that was here…."

"You are just an abandoned kid….."

Hearing this, the girl flinched with hatred filling his eyes.

"Look at this…. What are you going to do with these eyes? Are you going to kill me?"

With his eyes that were looking at the girl whose eyes were filled with such strong hatred, Thomas asked mockingly.

'Ah… Playing with these girls is so much fun.'

Although he wanted blood, he also had a hobby while selling the girls.

He would always have the taste of them and would enjoy breaking their resistance….

'It is always exhilarating to see the ferocious expression on their faces melt with pleasure…. Seeing them broken is such a fun thing.'

In the end, if he wasn't an evil person, he would not succumb to the plans of an evil spirit either.

However, just as he was about to rush the girl, he sensed something.

"Huh?"
