Demon Emperor's Rise: Becoming The Greatest Villain For My Daughter

Chapter 113 Mysterious Power

?

For Ragnar right now, the only thing that could change this current outcome was this blood essence. But He hesitated because of what Benimaru told him.

"I used it to enhance your bloodline, but it looks like not all of it was used to upgrade it. Still, do not use it now; I am sure when you reach a higher stage, this potent energy will come in handy."

Bam!

Ragnar's hesitation broke the sound of something getting smashed against a solid object entering his ears. Channeling his mana senses, he began to influence the blood essence to start activating. 

"ARGHHH!!!"

Instantly, Ragnar's body started to deform, and dark light flashed from his orifices. He groaned and screamed in extreme pain, as if thousands of needles were poking his inner body. 

Crack

Suddenly, cracks started to appear on Ragnar's body as he began to lose consciousness. 'No, I can't control this power. I made a mistake.'

When Benimaru's blood essence was used to upgrade Ragnar's bloodline, the system was the one handling everything, so Ragnar didn't feel this much of a pain. But now, he was using it on his own, without any knowledge about it. 

He was bound to fail from the start.

Ahat stopped in his tracks toward Ravenna and glanced at Ragnar. He felt a very sinister energy radiating out of him, making him scared for the first time. 'What is happening? I have the power of the goddess in me, why am I being scared?'

This made Ahat extremely worried about Ragnar, but when he saw Ragnar's life force seeping away, his worry vanished. 'Was this a bluff? But still, I should finish him off on my own.'

Ahat changed his trajectory and headed towards Ragnar. He took slow steps because he didn't know what might happen. He might get possessed by a great demon, or his body might explode. Whatever it might be, it was dangerous for him.

Ragnar was clueless about Ahat approaching him. He was having a hard time trying to stop this power. 'I can't die. Not yet!'

"'"Yes…..you still have live…..for me…"'"

At that moment, a voice echoed from Ragnar's inner consciousness. He didn't know who this voice belonged to, but there was a sign of familiarity about it.

That didn't matter right now, as after the voice died down, the pain in Ragnar's body subsided and the dark flashing stopped. Ragnar's body became stiff as if he were dead.

Ahat had a flash of doubt in his mind. 'Did I worry too much? He died just like that.'

But Ahat wasn't able to let out a sigh of relief when suddenly, from Ragnar's body, a white beam shot out to the sky. Gradually, Ragnar's body also started to float and became stationary in midair. 

"Something feels wrong." Ahat put up his guard, looking at Ragnar with distress.

Tang

The white beam disappeared after a sound of metal ringing. Afterwards, Ragnar's eyes shot open, which were devoid of any emotion. His white hair grew down his waist, like a lion's mane.

Ragnar looked at Ahat with deadpan eyes, before he started walking toward him.

Ahat nerves were twitching nonstop as he was feeling an invisible pressure emitting out of Ragnar. 'This aura and this otherworldly feeling…this is completely different from his previous self.'

To quell his panicked heart, Ahat rushed toward Ragnar and swung his sword. 

While Ahat's sword was coming down at Ragnar, he was still walking leisurely. But the moment it reached close to his head, Ragnar sidestepped casually, evading it like it was nothing. 

'What!?' Ahat was beyond shocked by Ragnar's speed.

Ragnar punched at Ahat's chest, who was defenseless now. Ahat could feel the punch coming, but he wasn't that worried because he was very confident in his armor, which was filled with the goddess's power. 

Crack-Bam! 

Ahat was proven wrong instantly as his rocky armor shattered the moment Ragnar's right fist came in contact with his chest plate.

That wasn't the end of it, as the fist continued on its track and landed on Ahat's solid chest.

Bam! 

Ahat's body shot like a cannon and penetrated through several walls.I think you should take a look at

After Ahat stopped, he thought while lying down. "What is this outrageous streng- Blarg!"

A mouthful of blood came out of Ahat's mouth, painting his body red. He tried to get up in a hurry because he had to defend himself before Ragnar got close to him. 

But he just put his hand on the rubble to stand, when suddenly a tall shadow fell on his body. With his eyes wide open, Ahat punched at Ragnar's guts. 

Ragnar grimaced at seeing this before he kicked Ahat's chin, sending him flying in the air.

Smashing through three or four ceilings, Ahat appeared outside, getting a view of the burning city and the chaotic noise from the war outside. Unfortunately, Ahat wasn't able to experience any of this as he was unconscious from the kick. 

Ragnar looked up and saw Ahat's body falling right on him. Winding up his right fist, he imbued it with white, vital energy. 

" [ Meteorite Punch ] " Then he punched at Ahat, as if he was throwing an object at him. With the force of his punch, all the rubble surrounding him blew away. A fist-shaped vital energy, containing some sort of mysterious energy, galloped toward Ahat, destroying the ceilings in its path.

Ahat, who was just gradually having his conscience return, just saw a white light flash in front of his eyes before his eyes turned dark.

The punch hit the center of Ahat's body, freezing him in the air for a few seconds. 

Boom

Then, all of a sudden, his body exploded into bits and pieces, which rained down on the church.

Inside the church.

Ragnar looked at his body and squeezed his fists, feeling the power inside him. "Hmm…This body didn't disappoint me. This is much better than I anticipated. The legendary Abyssal Lord's blood essence, with this much purity, is no joke. I wish I had gotten my hands on it earlier."

At that moment, he felt someone approaching in his direction. "I guess it is time for me to leave, and I can't stay any longer anyway, this body can't handle this much power yet."

Thud

Ragnar's body slumped to the ground, unconsciousness.

Ravenna walked out of the hole in the wall and saw Ragnar lying on the floor. Coming toward him quickly, she checked up on him, to see if he was okay.

"Phew~ he is still alive." Ravenna sighed in relief after feeling the vital energy running around his body. But that wasn't the case for Ravenna. She might look perfect without any injury on her body, but these weren't able to hide her low mana in her body, her ragged breath, or her ripped-apart clothes. 

She was only able to move because she forced herself to drink all the blood and then eat the broken body pieces to regain her energy. With the help of it, she first healed Fiain to keep her alive and then handed her to their demon army. Afterwards, she headed in Ragnar's direction to see if he was okay.

"I am glad you are fine." She picked him up on his back and walked towards the army. While walking, she contemplated the scene she saw. 'What was that power Ragnar was using? I am sure he never possessed such power before; if he did, he would have never hid it from us? That power is very dangerous; I will have to inform Benimaru after all of this ends.' 

'Well, let's first leave this place through the route Benimaru gave us, or we might get surrounded later.' 

…

"Hmmm, the tremors finally stopped. Their status is still active, so it means they won. I didn't expect them to be this strong." Benimaru marveled at his generals' strength while walking down the never-ending stairs.

Benimaru first went to the priest's office but found no one there. Not a single acolyte was present there. He went to his room upstairs by smashing through the ceiling. But he was still not there, except for the lifeless bodies of young girls.

"These assholes are everywhere, no matter which world I go to."

After cursing Belmuk, he was left very clueless, he wasn't sure where to look for him, and there wasn't anyone to even interrogate too.

So, he used [ Enhanced Senses ] and followed his recent traces. Eventually, he once again stumbled into his office. 

Benimaru instantly knew where Belmuk was when he couldn't find any more traces left by him, as if they had vanished into thin air.

"So, the same old secret door that leads to their lair. Classic." Benimaru tried everything that could act as a trigger. He was very familiar with it, as most of the rich people he killed hid in these secret rooms. 

However, Benimaru failed this time, leaving him a bit frustrated. "Tch, is there a different method in this world?"

Benimaru pondered while casually touching the small statue of the goddess on the table. The moment he moved it a little, a rectangle-shaped entrance appeared on the floor, leaving Benimaru speechless.
