*Swoosh!*
Elwha's eyes opened wide. She stared with an expression of disbelief as tens of nightmares disappeared in front of her eyes.
Then, she looked at the person responsible for that.
The blue-haired young man, Bloed Norman.
Unconsciously, she gulped down a mouthful of saliva.
She needed to use all her willpower to stop her body from shaking in fear.
Yes, fear.
Elwha was not a normal elf. Different from normal elves, she owned a very special talent.
The ability to see the souls of others.
And the ability to slightly influence them.
That was the reason she was chosen as the priestess of the Great Tree of the Boerner Forest.
The first ti she saw Bloed, during the ball in the palace of the Great Savannah, she noticed him precisely due to his soul.
When Bloed shook off her charm, she noticed his soul was pure and beautiful. And at the sa ti, it was strangely captivating.
Back then, Elwha thought his soul was one of the most beautiful souls she had seen ever.
And when she saw him again during the competition, she thought that his soul was as beautiful as always.
Now, however, it was different.
Just like she could see Bloed's soul, she could see the souls of others.
Thus, she managed to see how Bloed's strange ability erased everything in front of him, even souls, as though they never existed.
Each ti Bloed's soul pulsed, everything in front of him disappeared.
When Elwha saw that, the beautiful and pure soul of the blue-haired young man beca incredibly terrifying before her eyes.
Like a monster waiting to destroy everything in its path.
It was not sothing that should exist in this world.
"Miss Elwha?" Bloed called out at the elf princess when he noticed she was looking at him with strange eyes.
Elwha snapped out of her daze and smiled awkwardly. "S-Sorry, it's just I never thought Mr. Bloed was so powerful."
"I can still improve." Bloed shrugged and said.
But although it sounded as though he was trying to be modest, the truth was the Bloed was saying the truth.
And he felt even more right now.
It was the first ti Bloed was able to use his sleeping ESP ability with total freedom.
And he could not help but think it was really powerful.
'As expected of an SSS-Grade ESP Ability...' Bloed smiled wryly to himself. 'It's very overpowered.'
In truth, the grade of an ESP ability did not represent its attack power or usefulness.
Instead, it represented its potential.
An SSS-Grade Ability ant that its owner could attain SSS-Grade without a problem unless there was a special circumstance.
However, it was also true that higher grade ESP abilities tended to be stronger and more useful than lower grade ones.
And virtually all the SS-Grade and SSS-Grade ESP abilities were powers beyond the domain humans should be able to wield.
They could be described almost as godly abilities.
And even among them, Bloed's [Molecular Disintegration] was at the top when it ca to attacking power.
Therefore, now that Bloed could witness its power, he felt more eager than ever to truly wield it one day.
However, Bloed quickly cald down.
Even if this power was incredible, he could not get drunk on it.
After all, this was not a power he could wield freely.
Thus, the feeling of omnipotence he was feeling right now was nothing more than an illusion.
Shaking his head, he looked at the elf princess beside him.
"Should we continue?"
"Y-Yeah, l-let's go."
Nodding slightly, Elwha resud walking with Bloed following after her. They moved through the convoluted world trying to find the core.
They continued walking for a long ti, entering so other mories in the way. Every ti they entered a mory, Bloed checked if they belonged to an elf or a mber of the Church of Slaughter. He did nothing if the mory belonged to an elf, but if it belonged to soone of the Church of Slaughter, Bloed used [Molecular Disintegration] to kill them.
He killed another two people like that.
But each ti Bloed killed soone, Elwha seed to beco more afraid of him.
It was as though she had seen sothing terrifying.
At first, Bloed did not care much about it.
But eventually, he started to feel a bit awkward.
After all, having soone looking at you as though you were a monster was not nice.
Even so, he tried no to be too mindful about Elwha's gaze. Plus, it was true that Bloed's [Molecular Disintegration] could seem a bit terrifying.
Anyone would be afraid if you see others being erased from the world as though they never existed.
Moreover, Bloed and Elwha were not exactly allies. They were working together now due to the circumstances, but it was possible they would turn against each other if the circumstances changed.
Thus, it was normal that Elwha was wary when a possible enemy showed such strength.
Deciding to stop thinking about that, Bloed followed Elwha inside another mory.
But as soon as they entered the mory, Bloed recognized the place.
The barracks, the training room, the bedrooms.
It was the military base where Bloed and the others trained for the competition.
Slightly surprised, Bloed looked around to find the owner of the mories.
But at that mont, Elwha patted his shoulder.
"Mr. Bloed?"
"Mm?"
Elwha put on a strange expression and pointed towards a direction.
"You should look at that."
Bloed was confused, but he nodded and looked at the place where Elwha was pointing.
There, he saw a blue-haired young man carrying a cat girl in his arms.
And for so reason, it seed as the young man was going to kiss the cat girl at any mont.
Bloed was speechless. He needed to be an idiot to not identify the owner of this mory after seeing this scene.
" Mr. Bloed, you sure are a playboy. To think you are in the most important mories of two girls." Elwha giggled while looking at the young man and the catgirl inside the mory.
" Yeah, I was not expecting this either." Bloed smiled wryly and shook his head. He already suspected Aya had feelings for him, but he never thought her feelings would be so big.
At that mont, the mory around them started to crumble, turning into the convoluted world of before.
"Huh?" Elwha put on a startled expression. "She escaped her mory? Amazing!" Elwha exclaid without hiding her admiration.
Bloed was also surprised. He did not expect Aya to break her mory either.
Apparently, this cat girl's willpower was stronger than he thought.
When the mory crumbled down completely, the cat girl looked around her and saw Bloed.
" Another dream?" She tilted her head in confusion and walked towards him.
"Aya?" Bloed called out at her, but Aya ignored his words. She just walked until she was in front of him and furrowed her brows.
Then, under Bloed and Elwha stupefied gazes, she tiptoed and kissed Bloed's lips.
"... Even if it's a dream, it feels nice." Aya blushed slightly with a smile and lowered her head.
Bloed felt very awkward. How was he supposed to react now?
Elwha, however, felt she needed to say sothing.
"Errr Miss Aya, right? This is not a dream, you know?"
...
...
"Huh!?"
