*KA-BOOM!*
In the middle of the crazy explosions that represented almost a blazing sun, Carter's body didn't have a chance at all.
The armor on his body lted away instantly because of the heat, while his flesh was cut wide open because of the wind blades.
As this happened, Greg decided not to show any rcy for Carter, so as a result, he grabbed Shapeless tightly in his hand and raised it above his head.
Seeing the strange posture that Greg had, Laura and Jonathan looked confused, however, the next second their jaws dropped right down to the ground.
Greenish and purplish veins popped out on Greg's neck, arms, and face, while around his Soul Creature, white light started to form slowly.
Seeing his scary appearance with the suffocating presence around him and his weapon, everyone in his proximity looked shocked, but the next second that turned right into speechlessness.
The mont Greg started to move his weapon, it felt like ti itself has stopped moving for a mont and skipped several seconds forward.
His hand motion was simply so fast, that the weapon's trajectory was just impossible to follow.
Even Joe who was used to greater speed because of his Guardian wasn't able to see where Greg swung his weapon, which made him alard a bit.
However, the next sight was even more shocking. The huge blazing sun in the air with Carter in its middle suddenly split into two, then three, then four...
Under a single second, the golden fireball, which was already looked terrifyingly unstable, got split into almost a hundred of different-sized pieces, and in the end, it exploded like a planet.
*KA-BOOM!*
Instantly, Carter's already cut up and burnt body exploded into several smaller pieces, making Laura and Jonathan on the side to stay silent because of pure fright.
Greg not only showed terrifying strength and skill during his fight, but he showed also that if he turned serious, he could kill anyone, no matter who it was.
Just as he showed now, he just killed a God ranked fighter while he was on the Ascender rank. He simply dominated the whole fight from beginning to end, no matter what happened.
No, this shouldn't even be called as a fight. It was a simple one-sided massacre!
"He is no more a human... He is a monster!"
While others were srized by just how brutally did Carter get killed, Greg took out a Healing Potion from his shadow, and after drinking it, he ran toward where Emma's body was.
Bex and the few Clanwing Family mbers who survived, seeing Greg's approaching figure turned tense instantly and stepped to the side.
Even though they were stronger in rank, after seeing his rage, they simply feared that he would kill them too in his anger, if they did sothing bad.
However, Greg didn't care about them at all. He just walked past them and crouched down to see how Emma was doing.
But when he saw the wound on her chest, his already dark expression darkened even more.
Seeing that gaping hole in the middle of her chest, the rage he was feeling right now was indescribable.
He was right here, yet he was unable to save her. To begin with, he still can't rember how she moved that fast to save Mila.
The only mory he could rember of was that when Mila was about to get killed, Emma's body flashed and appeared next to her.
Pushing Mila to the side and sacrificing herself, she died because he didn't react in ti.
"It is my fault. She died because of ."
When the others heard what Greg said, turned silent, not knowing how to react.
As ti passed slowly in silence, suddenly Mila stopped sniffing and looked at Emma with surprise.
"Huh? What... What is happening?"
Hearing her question, Greg, Joe, Laura, Jonathan, and the others looked at Emma's corpse, only to see sothing unexpected.
The wide gap that looked 100% fatal, slowly started to shine with dim blue light, and with a slow-motion, it started to shrink.
As this happened, unexpectedly above Emma's head a halo started to appear, while behind her back, wings started to grow out slowly one after another.
"!?"
Seeing this, Greg stepped back a few steps and let the surprising event to unfold before his eyes.
"It's the Heritage! Her Heritage has been activated!", shouted Greg excitedly as she watched Emma's changing body. It seed her 'Immortal' Heritage could revive her from death!
Laura and Jonathan hearing this looked confused, but instead of asking, they simply continued to watch in silence.
Slowly, but surely, Emma's wound healed, while her whole body underwent great changes.
Her blonde hair turned golden, while the fully ford halo above her head started to shine with holy light.
Behind her back, the three pairs of feather wings engulfed her physique gently, like they were protecting her slumbering body from the outside world.
After a small while later, a golden symbol appeared in the middle of her forehead.
Seeing that, Greg instantly realized that it was the exact sa symbol that was from before the Forbidden Lands when the angel appeared.
While they watched the symbol, Emma slowly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of sky blue eyes.
The pair of eyes were so beautiful, that Greg felt like he could die even if he was ordered to.
"You need to stop her or her body will be devoured and all of you will die!"
Suddenly, in Greg's head, Alice's urgent voice sounded, bringing Greg back to his senses.
"Huh? What do you an by that?", asked Greg with confusion.
However, Alice instead of answering Greg didn't reply but simply said, "Just look around and you will understand."
Doing as she said, Greg looked around, but the mont he did he raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Seeing everyone's hollow eyes as they looked at Emma, Greg asked instantly, "It's like they under a spell! But why?"
"That Heritage seems was not a Heritage at all. It was a spell which devours one's soul and let another being to take over the body after the owner dies."
When Greg heard this his expression turned dark and asked, "Wait, then Emma truly has died?"
"No. She is alive, but if you don't stop her, she will die for sure."
Greg listening to this nodded and after tightening his grip around Shapeless, he said calmly, "Understood. Then tell what I need to do."
However, what Greg got as a reply from Alice, was definitely not what he believed he would get.
"Go and pierce her heart."
After digesting that answer for a small while, Greg's expression turned sour and asked in a deep voice.
"Say that again?"
