Chapter 347 Merciless
-----
"W-What the fuck are you?! You're… Are you a Demon Cultist?!" He asked, as his axe quickly fell down towards us as if it had a mind of its own, and well, it had as it was a Spirit.
CLASH!
However, I intercepted the enormous axe with Gluttony, clashing against it. Gluttony unleashed a storm of darkness and blood and quickly enveloped the entire axe with it, as Eleanora helped me attack it while it was trapped.
POOF!
The axe quickly cracked, shattered, and exploded into smoke, quickly dying. As it was s spirit, it was probably way more fragile than an actual weapon.
"My Axe…!" The man roared, quickly standing up again, his entire body continued growing larger, as if he had no end to his powerful set of skills to use. "You're going to pay for that…! RAAAAH!"
The man roared like a barbarian, rushing towards us and unleashing countless fists attacks. Eleanora quickly stopped him by moving her spear incredibly quickly, all while she planted a Shadow Trap below him and captured with him with countless shadow tentacles trying to entangle his body.
"Unngh…?!" He muttered in shock, trying to free himself from everything going on.
"What's going on?! You've gotten slower!" Eleanora provoked him, as I confronted him with my Demon Arm, shaping it as countless tentacles covered with sharp teeth and wrapping them around one of his arms as I used [Shadow Sneak] to get behind him while he was being distracted by Eleanora and her Shadow Trap.
"Say goodbye to your arm."
"Unnggh?!"
CRUNCH!
My Demon Arm quickly bit through the man's arm, crushing his skin, muscles, and bones, and tearing apart his muscular arm in a single second. A second after that, it devoured it as his free arm reached up to me and threw me away, a calculated move as I knew I would get a retaliation after that.
p
I was hit strongly, a hit strong enough to kill a Wild Boar. I felt my human arm's bones cracking and shattering, as two of my ribs broke as well. If it wasn't thanks to my Physique, I would had taken even more severe damage, so this was a pro.
I ended in the floor, as the man gritted his teeth and looked at me with fury.
"Damn brat!!!"
He ran towards me, ignoring Eleanora and breaking free from her Shadow Trap as he attempted to crush me with his legs by falling over me.
However, I had accumulated more than enough blood.
"Crimson Flare."
FLUOOOSH!
"UNGH?!"
BOOM!
His entire body suddenly was covered in scarlet red flames. Crimson Flare was the powered-up version of Flare which had Blood Attribute Ki added into it, creating a powerful technique, as long as he was bleeding, the flames would continue burning through his body and absorbing his Blood!
"AAAAGGH…!"
The man quickly lost balance and fell down into the floor, rolling pathetically. A second after, I stood up while infusing Blood Ki into my entire body alongside two hundred MP, enough for my Physique to regenerate my wounds and even readjust my crushed arm back in place. The bones were still cracked, but aligned back together they would easily regenerate, especially when I ate an Apple right after that.
[You have recovered 500 HP]
The Apples that Apul could create were like game-like items, merely giving it a bite made it turn into bubbles of light and its effects were instantly applied to me, my bones easily regenerated back together, as my HP was full once more.
"AGGGH…! W-What are these flames?! It hurts so much!" The man cried. "H-how did you just regenerated your wounds by eating a damn apple?!"
"You see… this battle was rigged from the start." I said.
"Demon Arm, time to feast." I said with a smile.
"Yes Master!" The Demon Arm spoke, scaring the man even further.
"G-Get away from me…! Ungh…! AAAHHHH…!"
Completely weakened by my flames and the many wounds over his body, Elenora and I quickly cut down his limbs and then used Blood Contract to turn him into a Vampire. He was still alive, after turning into a Ghoul, so we threw him into her shadows and then returned to the rest of the bandit hideout.
Some bandits had tried to run away, but were caught by Fenrir's pack, which was being led by Blood, our trusty tamed Gray Wolf that had evolved into a Blood Wolf. He was still on his developing phase, so I didn't forced him to join the fight as he might had gotten crushed to death by this man.
After the fight against this famous Bandit, we captured the rest of the bandits, turned them into Vampiric beings, and then decided to interrogate them. Some died while transforming, but it really didn't mattered. However, the other bandits barely knew anything, their boss was the one that knew the most.
Apparently, all these bandits had been employed by the Demon Cultists, a man named "Black Fang" paid them almost a million Telis to capture a young Noble Girl and her servants who were moving through carriage. This Noble girl… the guy didn't knew who she was, but she was special for some reason. They kept her captive here, and he constantly said that they never raped her because she was too special… but the rest of her female servants were being raped repeatedly in front of her. Perhaps her lifeless eyes were due to the horrors she was forced to see.
Anything else… he didn't knew.
"T-Then can I join you guys? I am a super strong Berserk…! I have a Two Star Talent and my Axe is super strong too! Please, my Queen Eleanora- GEH…!"
CLASH!
I pierced the man's forehead with a knife, killing him on the spot.
"No." I said, as I took out my knife from the man's forehead, blood splattering out of the wound as his eyes rolled.
"Hahah… That was quite ruthless." Eleanora giggled at my actions.
"I am sure you wouldn't had wanted this idiot with us, right?" I wondered.
"Definitely no." Eleanora said.
"And well, it is not as if he'll be wasted…" I said with a smile, piercing his chest with my knife and quickly butchering out a glowing crimson orb.
"Hoh… This one's strong…"
