Seeing the sudden change, the old man was filled with ecstasy.
He hurriedly called over David,
"David co here fast!"
David didn't waste any ti and obeyed his instructions and stood against the dreadful pillar.
The old man then once again chanted so spells and asked David to sit down.
Suddenly a milky white ray of light shot from the pillar and engulfed David forming a cocoon, as a result, he lost his consciousness.
Eve, who was worried, asked the old man
"What happened to him?"
But before she could approach David to help him,
She was pushed back by a strong aura exerted by the old man.
"Stay back slave girl!"
"Just watch how he transforms and gets strong."
Soon all the resentful spirits and ghosts which were sucked in from the entire city forming a vortex above the pillar started rushing to the cocoon one by one.
The colour of the cocoon changed from initial white to light red then dark red and finally started blackening.
Eve cried out as she knew the red colour of the cocoon was due to David's blood vessels bursting open, she looked at the old man with hatred as he was not allowing her to approach David.
The old man laughed out,
"Haha!"
"Our plan is finally successful."
"Long ago, my wife and I plotted a lot of people against each other to start a war in this city."
"Within a few days, countless strong people fell."
"But no one knew...they all died because of my planning as I wanted to harvest their souls."
"Haha, I had long erected this pillar filled with black magic and whenever soone died in this city during the war, their soul would be trapped here."
"And later they would haunt anyone who ca here uninvited like so mindless ghosts just waiting for to harvest them when the ti was right!"
Eve who realised the gravity of the situation cried out,
"You are the one responsible for the reason this city is called an abandoned city?"
"Aren't you ashad after killing thousands of innocents?"
"Innocents?"
"Slave girl, you should rember everything is fair in a war!"
"As long as your objective is achieved then what about thousands, I won't even mind sacrificing the entire kingdom."
Eve still tried to put up a brave face but when she looked at the cocoon turning pitch black in which David was engulfed, her face beca ashen.
She knew the old man was using the pillar as a dium to transfer all those remnant souls and evil spirits inside David.
She was worried that David would lose his personality by absorbing so much of them and would beco soone completely different but she was helpless as she was pinned down on the ground by the old man's aura, and could only watch the things progressing from afar.
She gritted her teeth and looked at the old man,
"If anything happens to David, I will kill you!"
The old man just ignored her.
In his eyes, she was nothing more than a slave girl following David, he thought how could he be affected by the words of a re girl like her?
The process continued and the cocoon finally turned pitch black, there was a gloomy and devilish aura all around it enough to make people suffocate.
David who was inside was undergoing many changes in one go.
It was as if so online player suddenly entered a cheat code or exploited a bug resulting in increased power-up.
His blood vessels had burst open as almost all the blood drained out of his body.
Then the blood mixed with all the evil energy provided by the cocoon and it too beca black.
Then his body started reabsorbing that black blood.
His eyes sclera too beca black showing how much of a devil he was becoming.
His joints cracked and aligned more properly as his organs strengthened.
Within his mind, subconsciously his soul was madly absorbing all the resentful spirits and remnant souls it was being fed.
The aura of his body started increasing at a dramatic pace, mid-silver rank, late peak of silver rank, early gold rank, late gold rank, and early platinum rank.
Sensing the sudden stop of rising levels David opened his devilish eyes and growled loudly,
"Break for !"
His aura which had stopped at the early platinum level suddenly broke open to late platinum level..just one step away from the mythic legend rank which had not been seen in their continent for a long ti.
Soon the light engulfing the cocoon from the pillar started dimming and after a short while the pillar cracked and dissipated as it turned into black smoke.
The cocoon burst as David tore it open.
When he ca out, he was completely different from before, his bright skin beca dark and scaly, half of his hair turned white while half of them were black, his sclera was already pitch black, and his nose beca much more pointed as his teeth beca sharp as canines.
He beca so fiendish and nefarious that he could no longer be called a human.
Eve still looked at him with hopeful eyes, hoping he still retained the last bit of sanity!
But her hope was dood to fail.
David first looked at the surroundings and saw the old man nod towards him, he then looked at his own change.
Sensing the newfound strength he let out a loud animal-like roar.
"Grrrrrrrrrrr!"
"Hahaha! Elandor thanks to you I got so much strength in such a short ti."
"It would have taken many years to reach this stage if I had followed my normal routine."
"But thanks to you Elandor for forcing to use this opportunity!"
"Now I will show you what a real devil is."
"From now on, I will burn everything and everyone who stands in my way."
Suddenly Eve being pinned down by the old man caught David's attention.
With his new devilish strength, his sixth sense was increased to an unprecedented level.
He felt that if he could absorb or kill Eve his strength would further soar.
If Elandor was here he would be surprised to find out that as a protagonist..now David can even indirectly sense the luck of the heroine hovering over Eve.
His eyes which were looking at Eve slowly started turning malicious.
