Chapter 70 Demonization
Chapter 70 Demonization
Demonization is a term that was not unfamiliar to Vance. He had heard about it many times and even had quests where he had to fight beings who had become demonized. Demonization occurs when one's mental state reaches a point where one can no longer control their sanity. Their feelings and beliefs are so strong that they begin to mix with their mana. It begins to form a black core within a person until one day, it reaches a point where it will explode, causing the emotions of that person to explode and turn them into demons.
This was what was currently happening to Prince Edward. His hatred for Alice had become an obsession that formed a core within him, and now that he was about to lose everything, he could no longer control himself, and his core exploded within him. His skin began to turn gray as his pink hair fell out. His eyes became a dark red color, and his fingers elongated. Even the teeth in his mouth fell out and began growing new razor sharp teeth.
Vance stood at the side, seeing all of this, and shook his head. Such a thing was happening during his life quest meant only one thing….
[ Life Quest]
[With Edward Findale's schemes and plots revealed, he lost everything and turned into a demon. Defeat the demon and end this once and for all.]
[Life Quest has been updated.]
Vance could only sigh. He was level 16, and now he had to fight a monster he should not run into until he was level 50. Thinking back on everything that has happened thus far, Vance figured if he was not an NPC, he would have died a million times over. Even if he had some advantages, he would not have been able to survive until now if he had been a player. Back when they were surrounded, he would have definitely died along with Alice and Sally if he was a player.
But since he had come this far, he was not going to let things end with him failing his life quest. Once a demon rose, it would be hard to kill. Vance pulled out his sword and cast fireball on it, and began walking forward.
"Vance!" Alice called out, pulling his arm. She did not know why Vance was walking forward at this time!
Vance paused and looked at her with a smile. "You leave. I will help deal with this once and for all."
"No! If you do not leave, I will not leave!" Alice's eyes were firm as she took her bow out of her inventory. Vance looked over at Sally for help, but the damn girl was readying her daggers. "Vance, do not think of getting rid of us. We are not going to be easily sent away."
Vance frowned, but when he thought about how these girls had an angel's tear on them each, he felt maybe it would be okay. They would also have to fight demonized people later on. He could only hope things worked out well, or maybe this was all the systems doing…
Whatever the case may be, he just needed to make sure they lived to see tomorrow while dealing with this demon. With a sigh, he said: "Okay, but the both of you must follow my every word! If I say fall back, do it instantly!"
"We will," Alice replied without hesitation. She also did not wish to die. They just would not leave Vance's side.
In this world, the bond between two people was something that could not be separated easily. If one were to fall in love, they would love for a lifetime. There was hardly any time when people would treat their spouses badly. This was just how this game regarded promises between the ones they loved. Since Alice already decided that Vance was the one and allowed him to take away what was most precious to any girl, she would not leave Vance's side, even if it meant death.
While players would think this is a stupid concept and one should try to live no matter what. In this game, sayings like death do us part were held literally. And Alice and Sally, while not officially married to Vance, had already decided on this.
"Hahahaha! I will kill you all!" The now demonized Prince Edward, long black tongue, licked his lips as he turned to gaze at Alice. "But first, I will kill her!"
"I don't think so!" Henry drew a sword from one of the guards and pointed it at Prince Edward. "You will not harm a hair on her head."
"Hahaha! Do you really think you can stop me? Right now, I can kill everyone here, even the king! Ahahahaha!" The demonized Prince Edward no longer had any sanity left in his eyes. He was nothing more than a demon who only cared about killing. All his goals and ambitions were gone. He just wanted to see blood and nothing else. If he were to survive here, he would murder everyone in the city and make it run with blood, turning this entire place into his own domain.
Vance quickly opened his status window and upped his strength with all his status points.

With the huge boost in strength, Vance could only hope he could do some damage to this demonized Prince Edward. He rushed to the front line, which was currently in a brutal battle. Blood splashed everywhere as the demonized Prince Edward cut down the guards who came forward. The mages were casting spells one after the other, but the demonized Prince Edward seemed to have some kind of magic repelling barrier around him.
Seeing this, Vance could only frown. It was a boss barrier. Magic would be reflected until they actually break the barrier! Only when it was broken would magic get through! He looked at his HUD to see the blue bar under the boss's health bar slowly going down after it was bombarded with spells and frowned more. It was too slow! What made things worse was the size of the demonized Prince Edward, who now stood fifteen meters tall! He had turned into a full blown boss!
