Chapter 34 Madness Key

He held on strong, activating <Little Madness> and pulling with his doubled strength. At that moment, his raw power was truly great.

A howl of pain was preceded by a spurt of blood.

Sylas already had his escape plan prepared, ducking and rolling again to get out of the way.

He tossed the bloodied tongue to the side, his green irises exuding a chilly light. It wasn't killing intent, but rather sheer focus.

He slowly dismantled the BOSS creature, cutting at its weaknesses one by one until it was just a shell of itself. It was completely disoriented, unable to make its way in the world any longer.

Sylas controlled two more fangs, driving them right up Big Madness' flaring nostrils. Like this, the python not only lost the ability to see or smell, but had also lost the ability to breathe with any sort of ease.

That was when Sylas sent in a second pair of fangs into its nostrils, and then a third pair. He would have sent another, but he ran out. Even so, it didn't seem to matter.

Lacking sensory perception, and now having lost the ability to breathe normally.

Big Madness began to keep its mouth open. Mouth breathing was the only option it had left to it, but the pooling blood that came from its torn-off tongue was making it a nightmare.

It was too busy rampaging to slow down, and the cumulation of lost breath from its nose, and the fact blood was pooling into its lungs now with every haggard breath, was slowing it down further and further.

Sylas whittled the creature down step by step. It was an almost methodical slaughter. Compared to how he had been when he first entered the dungeon, this was on another level.

This was the Sylas Brown he preferred to be.

In the Madness... he felt he understood himself better.

'Madness Key?'

But even if that was the case, if he tried to use this added Strength to make contact with something, he could really hurt himself.

He looked down at his hands. He really needed a weapon. Or...

His gaze landed on Big Madness' corpse. He closed the distance with a few steps and placed a hand on it.

Sylas braced himself, remembering the horrid paid it took to assimilate Common Genes. He found something to bite onto and then moved his intention toward [Yes].

A deep grunt left Sylas' lips, his fingers digging into the ground. The nails he had lost on his right hand still hadn't recovered, and yet he didn't even seem to notice as he dug deeper and deeper, biting down on the piece of his pants hard.

It took several minutes before he finally collapsed in what felt like a pool of his sweat. He barely registered a familiar disappointing message.
