Chapter 41: The True Body



Sophia lays down her arms just because she's not giving up on fighting, she recycles the mental power she used to manifest the Valkyrie Saber and transforms it into purifying magic that can be used to awaken Cassius trapped in a haunted house.

Her intentions were also apparently perceived by her opponents.

"Self-inflicted. Emilia was annoyed by Sophia's insistence. She slammed Sophia, who had been raised high, to the ground, then lifted her free hand, raised her index finger, and drew a virtual circle into the air.

The acidic mist of blood that drifted through the air around her swirled and condensed at the command of her hand, burrowing into the ground beneath Sophia. Thick, acid blood stirred the dirt, enveloping Sophia in it, and then standing upright.

Sophia, who couldn't move for half a minute, spread her hands and inserted them into the mud controlled by acid blood in the shape of a "ten", as if she was crucified, completely incapacitated.

Due to the needs of the mission, Emilia did not kill Sophia, she looked left and right, admiring the tragic situation of Sophia who was imprisoned by her, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Huh? haha! hahaha...... It's all at this time, and you're still thinking about your so-called 'companions'? disgusting! Hypocrisy! Since you have a companion at a time, let you see with your own eyes what happens to your 'companions'!"

Emilia grabbed Alice, who was in a semi-unconscious state, by the neck and lifted her up. The rusty kitchen knife slashed hard at the still-intact chest armor.

"Ugh!" the force of the impact caused Alice's body to swing backwards, and a mouthful of blood erupted from her mouth, staining Amelia's hand red.

Because the master's consciousness has been blurred, the hardness of the "True Martial Saint Armor" with spiritual power as energy is also decreasing. Although Emilia's knife did not shred the entire piece of armor, it had already left a deep dent in it.

"You...... What are you going to do?" Sophia, trapped in the confinement of the bloody cross, saw this scene clearly, and she made a difficult sound.

"Huh!" Emilia sneered, sneering, "You've probably heard the story of the Ripper on a Rainy Night a hundred years ago." ”

"Are you?"

Such a classic stunner, of course Sophia had heard of it. During the battle with Emilia, Sophia also felt that this opponent was unimaginably ferocious, but she couldn't associate a "little girl" with a mysterious serial corpse killer who had been pending more than a hundred years ago. Emilia admitted in front of Sophia that she was the "Ripper on a Rainy Night" back then, which undoubtedly shocked Sophia's heart.

"Don't worry, I'll be the last to get my heart out, and until then, this stinky girl will be alive forever. Emilia smiled wickedly.

"Stop!" Sophia, realizing what terrible thing the madman was going to do to Alice, hissed with all her might, but could only squeeze out a small voice.

"Hey, hey......" Emilia smirked as she slashed a second time, this time making the dent in her armor deeper.

"Let her ...... go"

Emilia ignored it, and for the third time she took the knife down, this time the armor finally reached its limit and shattered in pieces. Since she couldn't kill Sophia, Emilia was going to torture Sophia mentally by disemboweling her most valued companion in front of Sophia, causing Sophia to have a nervous breakdown, and she would never have any will to resist again.

The armor shattered and the magic vanished, and with a slash of the kitchen knife, Alice's clothes were sliced open, revealing her white belly.

"Fellowship!" said Amelia, glancing up at Alice's face distorted by pain. Then she raised her kitchen knife again and slashed at Alice's stomach.

"Ahhh......h

The woman's screams spread throughout the village.

Badly injured, Alice fell to the ground, less than 5 centimeters from her head, with a rusted kitchen knife stuck diagonally. The owner of the kitchen knife, Emilia the "Ripper on a Rainy Night", is now hiding her face with her hands, resisting the divine light that has caused great damage to her cursed body.

Dazzling light was emanating from Sophia's body. She doesn't need a silver cross to help cast spells, because her outstretched hands are fixed in a block of blood and mud, which is in the shape of a cross.

In the midst of the continuous painful wails, Emilia still withdrew her hand to control all the acidic blood mist, gathered around her, and blocked out some of the holy light, only to make herself feel better.

After coming back to her senses, Emilia saw that on Sophia's body, there were continuous transparent spirits that were slicing away, no, it should be said that they were scrambling to escape from Sophia's body. Not only that, but in the villages, there are countless resentful spirits on the run.

"What?' the magic of the ghost press is gone!......" Emilia turned her head to look in the direction of the hill.

The "haunted house of resentful spirits" standing on top of the hill is rapidly collapsing.

"Ghost Blinding", another name is "Ghost Obsessed Mind". Now, the curse of "Ghost Blinding" has been lifted, and the terrifying "Haunted House of Resentful Spirits" has fallen apart, but Cassius does not let up in the slightest, because he knows that as long as the enemy in front of him has not fallen, it cannot be considered a real victory.

"Hey!" Cassius exclaimed, his left index and middle fingers reaching forward, shooting a pillar of frozen energy at Sariktin.

The frozen energy hit Sariktin's body and passed straight through. Sariktin's body becomes transparent and fades away.

"Did you run away again?" Cassius looked around.

Suddenly, Cassius felt something pull on his foot, and he looked down to see a transparent, pale hand reaching out from the ground and grabbing his foot.

"Go away!" Cassius hurriedly pumped his foot, but he didn't expect to pull out a transparent spirit in its entirety.

Then, from the air in all directions, countless transparent hands stretched out, pulling Cassius Pull. In the void, Cassius saw himself surrounded by countless spirits, not ordinary souls, but resentful spirits full of grievances and hatred.

Cassius saw the hollow, resentful eyes like sharp blades that almost tore him to shreds, he heard the miserable, mournful howls of the ghosts, the anger and hatred of countless dead men for this living world, and his skin felt only a biting coldness, as if it was a gradual loss of body temperature that could only be experienced after death.

"Ghostly" - Cassius is deep in it.

His mind will be eroded, his soul devoured, his body a walking corpse, and the countless resentful spirits will wash it away, leaving only a wasteland.

But......

"Is that all you have left?" Ccasus roared as he was haunted by countless demons!

In front of people who have no distractions and are strong-willed, "ghosts and shadows" will not play their due role. Cassius' roar frightened the surrounding spirits, and they backed away slightly.

If the enemy takes a step back, he must take a step forward. Cassius also spread the magic in his body. Although he could not be seen with the naked eye, through the perception of the water element, he was able to confirm the location of the source of the magic that controlled the "ghostly shadow".

"Sizzle--"

Without any pre-action, Cassius' left hand suddenly turned back, and a puck condensed at his fingertips shot out in the direction of 7 o'clock.

Then a "bang" is heard, and the puck clearly hits something. Cassius didn't look back to see what had been hit, and without hesitation, he raised his hand, snapped his fingers, and shouted, "Shatter!"

Then there was the sound of ice shattering, and the object that had been hit by Cassius and frozen, unable to maintain its stable structure at extremely low temperatures, shattered entirely.

Subsequently, the countless resentful spirits that haunted Cassius also disappeared one by one.

After his vision was restored, Cassius turned around, and what was frozen and shattered by him was Sarictin's body. Since that guy can survive even if he has his head left, then completely destroy his entire body.

However, in the midst of the ice slag on the ground, Cassius saw something familiar: a dirty rag doll.

What the?

Cassius took a step back in surprise.

Could it be that this rag doll is the real body of that guy?
