"Argh! Why does my mind have to ’bug out’ right now? I’m in a middle of a fight, for f**k’s sake!"

With the way that his fight was about to go, Alex began to feel enjoyment, as he realized that he was only one step away from beating up his ’opponents’. He just had to bring his sickle down, and victory will be his.

But before he could even attack, his mind actually chose to sputter at this point!

"Tsk, when I gained this new power, I thought that the corruption will only manifest for a latter time. After all, I am someone who is bound to reach Transcendence. But look at my body right now! It has not yet been minutes since I used my power, and I am already this close to the brink? F**k!2???????3???? 4??????????? 3???????????2?????????? 9????????????? 8???????? 4????????7????????? 9???????????3???????? 2??????????8??????????????? 4??????????9????????? 2????????? 8????? 3??????????? 4?????9"

Alex does not want to admit it, but he could feel inside his head that his mind was getting closer and closer to being eroded and disrupted by the Abyss, a state that even the current him is not happy to see.

After all, even if being corrupted by the Abyss gives him additional power, it also makes Alex lose his reasoning, something that he does not want to compound anymore!

Because of this dilemma, Alex was naturally pissed, which he made obvious with his complaints.

"F**k, if my mind wants to be fully corrupted by the Abyss, it can wait after I finish fighting my opponents. It’s just a few seconds, so why can’t it wait 3??????????0???????????4??????8??????????? 3???????????0??????????9???????2????????8?????????????"

"Ah g*****nit! If this goes on, my enemies could have a chance of escaping!4????????????? 9????????8??????? 3??????2???? 7??????4??????????? 9????????????8????????? 2????????7??????????

"Oh, and what is this? My danger sense is telling me that I might possibly die today, especially if I don’t do something about my corruption? F**k! If this feeling is indeed true, then I should end this fight already!"

As much as Alex tried to downplay his current state, he fully knew well that he is currently at the precipice of a perilous situation.

If he makes even just the slightest wrong move at this point, it may very well cost his life or worse, even his sanity and future.

"Ugh, if I die, at least I won’t get to suffer anymore. But if I go crazy, I might turn into an abominable monster that will be cursed to suffer all its life...."

***************

The current Alex was not the same Alex as before.

The current him had been partially corrupted by the Abyss, a state that gave him a great boost to his Abyss Magic. This partial corruption upgraded his Abyss Spells, and it also pushed him closer to creating his own Personal Law.

Such benefits are enough to make Alex happy, but the downsides partial corruption was just as heavy, if not even worse.

By becoming partially corrupted by the Abyss, all the intelligence and kind-heartedness inside Alex were eroded, which made him more prone to irrational actions and stupid thoughts.

Things that Alex would never do before will be attempted by him during his partial corruption, and he will not sound as intelligent as he was. Other people will think of him as stupid, and Alex has no way to deny that.( So if Alex’s Intelligence Grade was 10, once he was partially corrupted by the Abyss, this Intelligence Grade will be downgraded into 6.)

Such drastic change is the reason for Alex’s current action, and the man himself has no choice but to accept this.

Aside from his intelligence, Alex’s emotions were changed drastically by the partial corruption too. His usual soft spot for his friends was replaced by a barbaric mentality, turning him from a reliable companion into a despicable leader.

This transition made it so that the current Alex was not thinking well of his allies anymore. He did not even treat Alina and the others like his friends, and he viewed them more like his slaves now.

"By being partially corrupted by the Abyss, my morals and logic will be skewed, and they will be more aligned against evil and irrational actions. That effect is the reason why I am acting like this right now...." Alex thought to himself as he did his best to slow down the sudden erosion inside his soul. "Of course I have no problem with my state, but the fact that I can still see my opponents leering at me is making me angrier!"

Alex’s action against the impending increase of his corruption might seem valiant, but it also did not matter, as the corruption continued its frenzied expansion even with his efforts to stop it.

F**k!!!"

If Alex was back in his pure, unadulterated state, his current partial corrupted self will surely make him worry. But that Alex was not here anymore.

All that was left was his retarded version, who is making things way worse.

"Argh! Being partially corrupted is the best! I get to keep my mind at the minimum, and I gain the power to trash my enemies! This is much better than my weakling past and my fully corrupted version! Because of that, I must do my best to maintain this state. Because if I don’t, I will be-2????????????? 9???????4????? 8??????????????? 3???????????????2????????? 0???????????9??????????? 8?????????4????????? 0???????????2??? 3????9???????"

"Argh! This is pissing me off so much!"

Even when his face was covered by Alina’s chains, the anger emanating from Alex could be felt all around him, to the point that his opponents were spooked by it.

Alex of course did not pay attention to it, as he was more focused on the impending erosion of his reasoning.

" S**t! S**t! S**t! You stupid mind! If you want to break down, just do it once I’m done with my opponents! Can’t you even just resist the corruption of the Abyss for now? It’s just a few seconds of extra time, for f**k’s sake!"

"Argh! If this is how things will go, then I will just give my all! That will be the only way... that I can win here!"

"I am not sure if my sickle alone will be enough to let me win. So I will also summon my other tools, just to make sure!"

Realizing that his situation will get worse if he does not perform any actions, Alex decisively abandoned the restrictions he placed upon himself.

"Boom!"

All the Abyss Magic that existed inside Alex’s body, including those that he used to resist the attacks by his opponents, began to gather to his heart, creating a maelstrom that pulsed with the power of evil.

Each rotation of this maelstrom seemed to generate a unique, frightening concept by itself, one which resonated with the evilness around it.

"Crack crack crack..." The appearance of this maelstrom did not just increase the aura of evil around Alex. The maelstrom also turned Alex’s malicious aura into a tangible mass, one that actually appeared to have a life of its own.

"Kriya!"

Unlike all the other creations that Alex made with his Abyss Power, this ’tangible mass’ displayed signs of life comparable to that of a normal living creature. It has tentacles all over its tiny body, along with hundreds of blood-stained eyes embedded on its skin, both which just exemplified its life-like state.

"Kriya!"

These tentacles and eyes made the creature look like a twisted version of a cute pet, with the shrill, gurgling sound that it released making it look worse. In fact, this creature looked so abominable, that even the nearby Professor Frances felt extremely repulsed just by this creature’s look alone.

"Kriya!"

Just like Alex, this ’multiple-eyed, tentacle being’ was just as evil as him, and it showed a brutality enough to make anyone feel hostile to it. It did not even flinch in face of Alex’s corruptive force, as it just sat calmly on top of his shoulder as if it was his cute pet.

"...."

The presence of this vile and despicable creature had definitely changed the whole situation, although Alex’s opponents seem to be not sure on what change it could really bring.

Alex of course perfectly knew what was about to happen, so even if his whole body was greatly weak from creating this tentacled Divine Being, he felt immense elation from its arrival.

"Hahaah! I am the High Priest Xela, and I am the next in line to become the head of the Abyssal Church! Now, my first Divine Being. Heed my call and maim my enemies!" Alex seemed to have lost his sanity as he screamed out this command, which he had to fuel with his remaining mental power.

He also burned most of his vitality in this process, which shrank his body in a visible rate. "My cute pet, leave none of my enemies intact, and make them experience pain like no other!"

"Blop!"

As if his words were a catalyst for an explosive chemical reaction, his tentacled divine being underwent a massive transformation.

"Kriya!" From a size smaller than a chicken, the body of the tentacled Divine Being expanded like a balloon until it became as large as a double-decker bus. Its eyes and tentacles grew along with this change, making them look more like lethal weapons at this point.

"Kriya!" Steam made up of evaporated Abyss Energy floated around the tentacle Divine Being this time, shrouding it in a mist that exemplified the malicious red glow of its eyes. Its tentacles flicked back and forth like snakes amongst the mist, which further blurred its already terrifying presence.

"Yes, yes. Yes. Now, this is what I want to see! A full-powered Divine Being, a creature that I can treat as my loyal pet! Hahahaha! I am liking what I am seeing!" Alex could not look anymore proud this time, as if the changes that he induced were greatly pleasing to him. He seemed to have even forgotten about his problems, as his attention was only placed on the tentacle being alone.

"Hey, my cute pet. What are you waiting for? Go on and maim my enemies! I just told you that, earlier, right?"

"Kriya!" Although its size was large enough to lord above Alex, the tentacled Divine Being did not act as if it was superior to him. Instead, it just followed Alex’s command obediently.

"Slowsh slosh..." With a gait comparable to that of a worm sprinkled with salt, the tentacled Divine Being began to move towards Alina and the others with a murderous intention. Its tentacles swished all around the air like knives with each step that it took, which just increased the being’s intimidating presence.

"Kriya!" As it sloshed ever closer to its target, the tentacled Divine Being suddenly flicked out one of its tentacles behind it. This said tentacle then grabbed the floating sickle above Alex, turning the sickle from a weapon into a toy that the tentacled Divine Being began to use.

"Swish swish swish!" The sickle did not display any dissident feelings on what was being done on it, and it seemed to be even allowing the tentacled Divine Being to play with it.

This movement might look like a cute sight to others, but the fact that this tentacled Divine Being was swinging the sickle to Alina’s direction directly contradicts that.

"Yes, this is the combination that I want to see. My first Divine Being, and my natal Abyss Weapon both cooperating to beat up my slaves! Hahaha, hurry it up you two! I want to see how you will break my slaves’ wills! Faster, faster! I can’t take it anymore!"

"Kriya!"

***************

With his successful summon of his natal Abyss Weapon and his first Abyssal Divine Being, Alex was already assured of his victory.

Even if it cost him a lot of rationality just to summon these two objects, it was all worth it, since he gets to use it on his powerful enemies.

"Hehehe, if I did not use these two objects today, Alina and those two might do something that I did not expect. But it was too bad for them that I did summon these two..."

With his soul freed from the effects of his opponent’s attack, Alex can now freely observe the impending defeat of Alina, Queen Mother and Professor Frances. This situation made him feel extremely euphoric, and he can already imagine all the punishments that he can inflict on the trio, especially on Professor Frances.

"Hehehe..."

Even if his pet’s attack has not landed yet, Alex can already envision the sight of Professors Frances screaming in pain as her body gets bludgeoned by his pet. He can also imagine the pleas that will come out of the professor, which will surely be filled by her curses too.

"Hehehe, since you three dare to rebel on my plan, then I will make you feel my wrath. That will be the only way that I can make you realize... that I am right. So don’t blame me if my attacks on you will be heavy. Everything is for your sake, so just bear with it!"

After that announcement, Alex just shook his head inwardly as he watched his pet start its attack on Professor Frances.

"Kriya!" His pet swung the sickle down with all the force that it could muster, creating a large storm of corrosive gas all around the tentacled Divine Being. This storm looked to be extremely deadly, and the way that it instantly dissolved the rocks on the ground made that obvious.

"WOosh!" Because of the powerful move by the tentacled Divine Being, this storm was funneled until it became a tornado, with its strongest part heading straight towards Professor Frances.

"Hom~"

With the deadly sickle and the corrosive gas tornado both headed towards her, Professor Frances’s defeat should already be set in stone. There is just no way that she can dodge this with her current condition, and nobody can save her.

"Thud."

However, just before the attack of his pet could land, a sudden change happened on Professor Frances, something which quickly changed the situation.

"W-what? What the hell is happening?"

Professor Frances, who should have been screaming in pain at this point, suddenly disappeared before the sickle and gas could take her body apart. What the sickle and the gas tornado hit was only empty air, with the outline of the Professor’s body disappearing like an illusion.

"..."

The professor’s presence was also gone this time, making it apparent that she was not in this place anymore. As for where she could be, even Alex had no clue about that.

"What? Did Professor Frances just disappear? N-no! That’s not possible! How could she just disappear, when she can’t even teleport? Argh! What the f**k is going on here?"

Aside from the professor, both Alina and Queen Mother’s body were gone too, and they seemed to disappear in the same way that the professor did.

This left nothing in the area but Alex and his pet alone, both who were caught off-guard with what had happened.
