Chapter 141: Madness

This was the first time I'd come up with such an idea since the last bloodbath in the camp, and I explained to myself that it was because of the urgency of the situation. But now that I think about it, deep down I was longing to exert this power, eager to recreate the scene in the camp again, since the fusion, I have always thought that I have successfully suppressed the demonic nature in my body, but now it seems that the demonic nature has been eating away at my soul, but at the time I was not aware of it...

Soon the soul devouring was released, and the black qi roamed around the castle like a ghost, quickly catching those who were casting spells, and then it was blackened, devoured... Compared to the last time I was in the camp, this time the opponent's mental will was obviously stronger, and it really took me a lot of effort to devour them, at the time I thought that Malthus's move was just to try to completely destroy me, but now it seems that I really underestimated this "Dream Demon King" at the beginning.

With the beginning of devouring, the energy of "Heavenly Punishment" began to gradually weaken, and it didn't take long for it to disappear, and at first glance it seemed that the crisis was over, but at this time the real killing had just begun, and those mages who had been hit by the "Soul Devouring" began to slaughter their companions around them frantically, and for a while the whole castle shouted and killed, and in front of the screams of the people, a sense of pleasure suddenly rose inexplicably in my heart, and all the suppressed grievances I had endured for a long time seemed to explode in an instant.

"It is because of you that I was born in this world, because of you and I will become an orphan, because of you and I have been living in hiding, because of you, I and Anna must kill each other, and now it is time for you to pay the price!" If my goal was to stop the Holy See from using Heavenly Punishment, then by this time my goal had evolved into revenge, I wanted to watch the people around me kill each other, to see them suffer, grieve, and even die.

With a bang, the door to the hut was blown open, and Maria, who was covered in bandages, stumbled in.

"Maria, you're here, are you alright?" I was so preoccupied with the killing that I almost forgot that Maria was still in this castle. At this moment, I couldn't help but feel happy to see her safe and sound.

"Stop, Kane!" However, at this time, Maria didn't care about chatting with me at all, and just roared anxiously.

"What's wrong? I'm already in control, huh?"

"But you're killing!?" That was the first time I'd seen Maria in such a hurry.

"Hehe, I'm just teaching those guys a lesson." Looking back now, I seem to have lost my mind and couldn't listen to Maria's advice.

"But this is against our original agreement!"

"This..."Hearing Maria say this, my mind cleared up a little, it is true that there was an agreement that the main place of this trip was Malthus, and if there was no need to try not to hurt the rest of the Holy See, and now that what I had done was clearly a breach of my original promise, and for a moment I began to realize that things seemed to be a little out of control.

"It's too late to talk about that." Malthus's voice rang out suddenly, and before we could realize what was going on, a beam of light pierced Maria's chest.

"No!" I exclaimed, and then rushed to Maria's side, and then saw that the "Iceberg Death" was already lying in a pool of blood.

"Maria, wake up!" I shook Maria while helping her treat her according to the method that Xiao Jia taught me last time, and it didn't take long for her to wake up.

"I... What's wrong with me?"

"It's Malthus, that bastard just snuck up on you." The thought of how Malthus dared to perform such a despicable trick made me feel furious.

After all, Maria's mind is much calmer than mine, and she seemed to realize something immediately when she looked at my hideous face, and hurriedly grabbed my arm.

"Kane beware, this is a trap..."Before Maria finished speaking, I felt a wave of energy shoot from behind me, I hurriedly opened the enchantment to block this round of attacks, and turned my head to see that it was Malthus, this guy clearly wanted to kill people. Suddenly, my mind, which had just calmed down, was once again controlled by anger.

"Bastard!" I put Maria on the ground while launching a frantic attack on Malthus, although I only have less than one-seventh of the strength of the real demon king, but these are enough to force me to be the "dream demon king", the current high priest of the Holy See is in a hurry, difficult to parry, at first glance it seems that if it were not for the almost cheating skill of "crossing", Malthus would have been baked into char by me a long time ago.

In fact, in hindsight, Malthus's style of play that day was indeed a bit strange, with its ability if it really couldn't resist it, it could borrow the "crossing" and walk away, with my ability at the time, I couldn't stop it at all, but it has been just wandering around me, in other words, it is constantly provoking me, provoking me, if it is on weekdays, this trick is easy to be seen through, but at that time I was blinded by the demon...

"Stop, Kane." Maria tried to stop me, but I couldn't listen to anything.

"Leave me alone, Maria, I'm going to teach this guy a lesson today!"

"Oh, can you really do it?" Malthus sneered, this was a complete blatant provocation, and finally the last vestiges of my remaining reason also fell apart at this moment.

"Since I can't catch you, then I'll just raze the surroundings to the ground!" I thought as I started to pump the mana.

"Stop, Kane, are you crazy!?" Maria was the first to react, perhaps because she was closest to me at the time, and the "Iceberg Reaper" was trembling in pain, which in itself is not difficult to understand, she was from the Holy See, majored in white magic, and my dark magic was harmful to her, but she struggled to pull my feet, hoping to stop my madness.

"Don't worry, Maria, everything is under my control." According to Maria's later recollections, I had a hideous expression and a crazy mood at the time, as if I had completely changed people, of course, I didn't know anything about myself, and now I only had one thought in my head, to kill Malthus, no matter what the price it would take.

"Do you really think so? My dear majesty!?" At this time, Malthus's taunt came again, this guy is really bold, he actually crossed directly to me and said this, so angry that I waved my hand to this guy, of course, it was impossible to hit, and finally just cut off a corner of the cliff on the side, and a miss made my anger even worse, and immediately accelerated the urging mana, and suddenly the wind and clouds in the sky suddenly changed, lightning and thunder, as if a rainstorm was coming.

"Stop, Kane, it's deliberately fooling you!" Maria tried desperately to slap my body, trying to stop me, but this time I couldn't listen to anything at all, the energy was gathering rapidly in the sky, and I was sure that if it fell, it would be enough to scorch the earth for miles, and now all I had to do was concentrate and catch the gap when Malthus crossed, so that it could not be avoided completely!
