Karyk stepped inside the giant lifeless body of the Angel, feeling a change in the space around him. He felt his chaotic essence flare up.
It felt similar to what he had experienced when passing through the portal to enter the battlefield. His essence was the key to connect him to the right space inside the Angel's corpse.
He found himself standing inside a place that was far from the disgusting scene he had expected from the interior of a corpse.
In the center of the space, he saw a man standing in a ditating position, appearing to be deeply imrsed. However, he could not sense any life inside that person, as if he had died just like that.
Even the corpse of the Angel had started decaying to so extent throughout the long passage of ti but the corpse of the man was still completely unhard.
Karyk approached the man, feeling a strange sensation rise within his heart. He had never seen this person, but for so reason, his heart was filled with a strange feeling of sadness. "Who is he?" Karyk wasn't sure what the identity of the person was.
Why was he inside the corpse of an angel? Was it because he was hiding from soone inside this corpse? Karyk wasn't sure.
"Are you the reason I was brought here?" Karyk walked around the man's corpse, observing it with great intrigue.
The man was wearing clothes that looked very fancy. Not only did they look good but they were also extrely powerful artifacts.
He used his divine sense to observe the artifacts, growing even more surprised. The clothes were able to reflect his divine sense, making it impossible for him to test.
All he could see was that the clothes were extrely high tiered artifacts.
He reached out his hand and touched the sleeve of the man, using his devouring ability to see if he could destroy the slightest part of the clothes. To his surprise, the clothes remained unhard.
Even his devouring didn't work on the clothes. Even his strongest ability didn't harm these clothes.
"If even your clothes were such powerful artifacts, then you can't be any ordinary person. Even the Drike Family Heir didn't have anything close to this level after all."
It was clear that the man in front of him wasn't an ordinary person. But which clan was he from? That was the question.
He had read about all the major clans, but none of them had features that this man had. The man in front of him was like an ordinary human, with no special physical trait. "Should I try to devour him?" Karyk wanted to know the identity of this man. The only thod he could think of was to devour him. Only then could he gain his mories.
Even if he couldn't devour the clothes, that didn't an the sa was impossible for the
man.
He placed his hand on the forehead of the man, who carried a divine charm even in his death. He released the essence of the abyss to consu the person.
"Huh, what?" The abyssal essence ca out of his hand. However, as soon as it touched the man's forehead, it quickly retreated inside Karyk's body.
He could feel his bloodline growing even more stimulated, his mind overtaken by the sa subconscious feeling of sadness.
He didn't even understand when or why tears were streaming down his cheeks as he looked at that man.
"Why am I reacting in such a way?" Karyk's face remained cold which created a stark contrast with the tears that remained unstoppable.
The abyss couldn't devour the man. Or rather, it refused to devour the man. It was like an instinct that was deeply imprinted in his body.
Karyk retracted his hand, coming to terms with the fact that he couldn't read the person's mories.
He started checking the man's body to see if there was anything that could give away his identity like a clan identification token.
"Hmm? What's this?"
Karyk was patting the man's clothes to check if there was anything of significance. Fortunately, it didn't take long before he found sothing.
He pulled out the object that had suffered through the passage of ti.
"A diary?"
The diary's pages had already turned yellow. It was so frail that he felt like it could be damaged if he wasn't careful.
Karyk placed the diary on the ground carefully and kept checking the man. Soon, he found another object hiding inside the pocket which was a ring.
Karyk placed the ring next to the diary and continued the search. Albeit, there was no new object that he could find.
After finishing the searcy, he sat in front of the person, facing the diary that was placed in between them.
"It seems that you don't just look like a human. You also share the human habits of writing diaries."
Karyk opened the cover of the diary, being extrely gentle with it. On the first page of the diary, he saw a single sentence written.
"Record of Project K."
Other than the title, there was nothing else written on the first page. There was not even a na of the person who owned this diary.
Karyk turned the page after taking another short glance at the lifeless man.
"Day 1."
"They expelled , calling a madman. But am I really mad? Or are they unable to understand? Why is it that they don't understand what I'm trying to do? Why do they hate
?"
"It doesn't matter. Even if I don't have a place to call ho, I will not stop. I will keep making progress, until the day I succeed and everyone realizes that I was always right!"
"Day 2."
"I went to every clan, asking for a place to stay. Even the clans that I had helped in the past, rejected . Is it because they are scared of them? It feels so ironic. It is fine. I will make my own place. A place where I shall be free."
"I heard there was an uninhabited star. It seems to be the perfect place for now."
