Chapter 675: I Know How To Kill You

Pov Athena:

Using the ring that allows me to continue communicating with Darius who is in town, I hear more information about the monster that appeared there, but one of those pieces of information caught my attention.

"Tell me more about this crystal you saw inside the monster." (I)

As I speak I keep away so as not to be interrupted, I continue to attack him from a distance with light element magic.

"I only saw a part of the crystal, but I could see that it was purple in color and had some Runes engraved on the crystal." (Darius)

"Was there a silhouette inside the crystal?" (I)

"I wasn't going to talk about it as it was only for a few seconds, but it looked like the silhouette of a foot." (Darius)

"This worm has so much disrespect for himself that he's gotten so low!?" (I)

I look at the grotesque monster that Gregory Roux has become, he was managing to defend himself better from my attacks after so long of fighting, and now I understood why I couldn't kill him before.

He used a curse that normally only some Heretics or few Necromancers use, he used the Curse of Life and Death.

This curse is a heinous act where the Soul has to be separated from the body before being sealed with a crystal, this makes the person immortal, but it has several inconveniences like not having any feelings anymore, the person becomes more aggressive and miasma starts to be emitted steadily from your body.

The worst kind of punishment falls to the soul, over time the Soul is weakened over time, if it takes too long to release the Soul, then when the seal is broken the Soul can shatter as it is too weak.

This curse may seem attractive, but it makes a person live a cursed life and when he finally dies he finds that he will have nothing as his Soul will disappear.

He turned into this grotesque thing and still condemned his own Soul.

"You've become a being worthy of pity, I think I can use that on you." (I)

I land on the ground and spread my wings, unfortunately, I can't use my Aura very well since I unfollowed God Baldr, but I can still use it.

"< Sword of Annihilation >" (I)

This is a skill my sister taught me, her favorite skill that took me 5 years to master, and even then I can only use it once.

Half of my vitality, all of my Ki and Mana are concentrated in my sword while taking the form of my ideal sword, this time this skill will be used incompletely because I can't use my Aura, but it will be enough for a cursed body like His.

A silver sword forms over my current sword, Ancient Runes written on the blade are glowing, these Runes form the only word I learned in that ancient language, these Runes say "determination".

"Why does everyone want to get in my way? Why is everything going so wrong when I've had 100 years to prepare!?" (Gregory Roux)

"They deserve to die, they came here to destroy us back then, why is it so wrong for me to want to go to their continent to do the same!?" (Gregory Roux)

His voice was unpleasant, it didn't even sound like a person's voice anymore, it sounded like a monster's voice trying to imitate someone's voice but I should understand that since his mouth became so big.

"(Doing this without aura is very difficult, just maintaining this skill is taking all of me.)" (I)

"I will kill you, I will kill the coward Melissa and then take this entire continent under my rule, I will achieve my goal..." (Gregory Roux)

As he screams and comes flying towards me, he realizes I'm still preparing for my attack, but he doesn't realize he's doing me a huge favor by getting so close.

"< Demon's Jaw >" (Gregory Roux)

I wait until Gregory gets very close to me, at which point his grotesque mouth that splits his throat in two opens even wider to three times its previous size as he rushes towards Kinshasa.

The thousands of sharp teeth in his mouth seemed to be strong enough to crush my body, but as soon as he was close to devouring my body, I brought my blade down with all my strength, slashing from top to bottom.

"How do you... Huh..." (Gregory Roux)

After my body, the energy sword fell apart while my real sword turned into shards of half-molten metal.

Gregory's body was standing like a statue in front of me, but a glow began to spread through the inside of his body revealing a line that runs from the top of his head to the bottom.

After that, his eyes, mouth, and ears began to emit light.

In the end, his skin started to dry and crack making more openings through which the light came out, it didn't take long for the body to burn from the inside out and the body to disappear into dust.

Ding!

[ You won... ]

All this took just a few seconds, in the end, there was no body left to regenerate, but I fell to my knees on the floor with blurry vision.

I can hear the system, but I ignore it as I'm not in a position to see it right now.

Sigh

The clothes around my arms were torn to shreds and I could feel my arms hurting so much that even moving them was difficult for me.

"Damn! It's not the time... for this... there are still enemies..." (I)

I try to pull a potion but it falls out of my hand, before I try to pull out another potion someone shoves one in my mouth while pushing my head back.

In a few seconds, my vision improves and I see Michael covered in blood, I look around and see more than twenty bodies, I hear sounds of fighting and I see Angela tearing apart two enemies a few meters away.

"We have to get out out of here." (I)

"I don't know if we should, the Empire troops might not resist." (Michael)

"We've already done more than... we should have." (I)

"The strongest enemies..." (I)

"Angela just took care of the last two, we were keeping them away from your battle, the rest of the army may have noticed something wrong now that the barrier we made was destroyed by you." (Michael)

I look around better noticing that there is a barrier flashing around us, I look towards the direction in front of me where I see a growing ditch that made a path of destruction through the forest in front of me, there was also a cut in the barrier where the path of destruction continued deeper in the forest.

"Let's go out, now." (I)
