Damn, I Have to Marry the Strongest Antagonist at the Start?

Chapter 91: Chapter91-The Madwoman?

?

Owen vibrated his angelic wings, sweeping across the sky like a beam of holy light, quickly arriving at a stone forest.

As soon as he arrived, Owen was hit by an overwhelming stench of blood, making him almost gag.

Looking down, he saw the stone forest stained red with chunks of flesh and shattered bones, resembling a gruesome slaughterhouse.

Upon closer inspection, the flesh and bones were all human organs, with tattered remnants of -clothing- the signature black attire of the Nether Guard.

The air was still thick with lingering traces of agitated mana.

From this, Owen sensed the presence of the Nether Guard.

Clearly, there had just been a fierce battle between Carlos' men and Raina.

The shattered corpses left behind were in a horrendous state, dismembered and strewn everywhere.

Even though Owen had witnessed many bloody scenes, he couldn't help but breathe a little quicker, shocked by the sight before him.

If it were a scene caused by a brutal, bloodthirsty maniac, he wouldn't have hesitated for a moment. After all, not a single mage's body was intact; it seemed like the work of someone with a twisted mind or a penchant for dismemberment.

However, considering the current situation, the only person who had fought Carlos' men here was Raina.

Yet, Raina, as the dean of Luna Academy, despite her young age, was a respected elder and a figurehead of the righteous faction.

She shouldn't be capable of such a thing.

Just as this thought crossed Owen's mind, he suddenly saw an even more terrifying battle wave surging from deep within the stone forest, like a mushroom cloud rising.

From that battle wave, Owen sensed an incredibly terrifying and frenzied killing intent, making his eyes tinge with red.

Currently, Owen was highly sensitive to killing intent, and judging by it, those killed here by Carlos' men must have been driven to such acts by their deeds.

Immediately, Owen quickened his pace to chase after the source.

After a few breaths, the stone forest gradually gave way to towering mountains.

In a valley surrounded by several mountains, a woman with azure hair was approaching, her mana rising from her like a wolf's smoke.

Owen recognized her at first sight.

Raina!

The dean of Luna Academy.

Owen had encountered her a few times before, but her aloof personality was just like her disciple, Marry. Unless she sought you out first, any attempts to greet or approach her would be in vain.

Thus, Owen only recognized her, having had no prior interactions.

"This is..."

Upon closer inspection, Owen suddenly noticed that while Raina was unharmed, her aura was unusually strange. The frenzied killing intent emanated from her.

When Owen got a clear look at her face, her previously serene and indifferent expression had completely twisted, covered in blood and bits of flesh.

She wore a crazed smile, clutching a severed head in her hand, crushing it with her slender fingers, making a cracking sound, as if relishing the act of slaughter.

This made Owen's expression change slightly, staring at her in utter astonishment.

In the original story, Raina was depicted as a cold goddess who spoke little, acted decisively, and cleanly. This indulgence in the pleasure of killing, even enjoying dismemberment, was completely unlike her!

Yet, the person before him looked just like Raina!

Wait!

Suddenly, Owen seemed to realize something and took a cautious step back.

The person before him wasn't Raina at all!

In the latter part of the first season of the anime, it was mentioned that Raina had a dual personality.

At this moment, her body was occupied by her second personality-Lana!

Lana was entirely different from her primary personality!

She was a very playful, frenzied, and bloodthirsty individual!

However, this personality only awakened in the latter part of the first season. Why did it appear so early now?

Could it be that Owen's presence caused a pivotal change in the storyline?

As thoughts raced through Owen's mind, he understood why the system had issued this hidden task.

If Lana's personality were allowed to continue unchecked, it would have a significant impact on her primary personality, Raina.

It could even lead to a complete reversal!

While Owen was contemplating his next move, the only other living person facing Lana, Kyrik's Penal Minister, was already covered in blood, his aura weak, and his face filled with despair and terror.

Earlier, when Raina had been fighting Carlos's men, he had planned to secretly strike and severely injure Raina, cutting off King Aldric's only current ally.

Everything had been going smoothly, and he had successfully inflicted severe injuries on Raina.

However, just as he was about to strike again, Raina seemed to turn into a madwoman! Not only did her injuries heal at an alarming rate, but her combat strength also became incredibly terrifying.

Carlos's strong men and the Nether Guard were slaughtered by her as if they were nothing. Even though he had been at the platinum-tier for many years, he was no match for her and suffered unprecedented injuries, with numerous broken bones causing excruciating pain. He even had a strong feeling that if "Raina" wasn't toying with him to satisfy her twisted desire for torture, he would have been killed already!

"Damn it, this is intolerable!"

The Penal Minister, though already in despair from being beaten by "Raina," couldn't bear the humiliation of being toyed with!

With a furious roar, the eagle beside the Penal Minister, also beaten to the brink of death and its wings stained red, glared angrily at Raina.

The eagle was the Penal Minister's loyal spellbeast, a unique bloodline creature with unparalleled speed and explosiveness.

As the determination to fight to the death surged within both man and beast, the Penal Minister quickly took out a crimson pill from his storage ring.

"Originally, I didn't plan to resort to this method, but you've pushed me too far. Do you really think we're so easy to bully?"

The Penal Minister threw the pill into the eagle's mouth, then channeled the remaining mana in his body into the eagle, helping it absorb the pill's demonic power.

This pill was something he had acquired from the Sun-Moon Sect, an extremely mysterious

potion.

Once given to a spellbeast, it could significantly boost its aggressiveness for a short period!

Lana watched the Penal Minister's desperate move and suddenly smiled mockingly, like a cat playing with a mouse, without making any effort to stop him.

As the eagle's aura surged, its eyes turned blood-red with madness, its strength multiplying several times. Only then did Lana, her expression cold, speak:

"At least this beast has some strength. I hope you don't disappoint me again."

Lana observed the eagle, now revitalized and immensely excited, then moved like a sinister shadow to the dying Penal Minister. Her five fingers gripped his neck, and a wave of annihilating magic emanated from her, turning his body into black dust, scattering in the

wind.

With the Penal Minister dead before its eyes, the already frenzied eagle, further provoked by the pill, let out an earth-shattering roar, now fearless, its wings imbued with a crimson killing intent and rage.

However, Lana temporarily ignored the eagle. She suddenly smiled, turning to look at Owen

not far behind her.

"You've been watching for quite a while, haven't you? Why not join in and play with this

eagle? Come on, it's quite fun!"

She winked at Owen.

Even as the furious eagle flapped its wings, like a cloud descending from the sky, rushing

towards her, ready to swallow her whole!

The eagle's original strength was at platinum-tier level 9, but due to the pill's stimulation and the Penal Minister's death, its power had reached a level comparable to diamond-tier! Diamond-tier strength far surpassed platinum-tier, representing a qualitative leap! As the eagle flapped its wings, its giant beak, like two guillotines, locked onto Lana.

Yet, Lana was indifferent, ignoring it, her attention solely on Owen, seemingly very interested

in this winged man.

"Are you human or a monster? Or perhaps a hybrid?"

Owen's face darkened. Was this really the time for mockery?
