The darkness emanating from Anthony was vile and dirty, murky and deadly. His heart raced a mile a minute, his blood yearning to escape his own body. He looked at Angela's crumpled body on the floor; her eyes were too dark. He observed his hands, completely black, camouflaged even among the thin smoke that surrounded the entire island.
In his hand, the sword throbbed even stronger; a sterile gleam erged like water and enveloped Anthony's body. His mind, sowhat clouded, gained more clarity; his eyes montarily dazzled. He shook his head and regained composure.
When he looked at Angela, he was surprised to see her dead on the ground, but the most unsettling thing was that she didn't seem like herself, more like an old woman whose beauty had vanished along with her strong vitality. Undoubtedly, the most unsettling thing was that her sea of soul was empty; an infinite blackness.
With fear, he stepped back; his breathing beca irregular and his pupils dilated. He felt his mind sinking into despair until he heard: "Calm down, child, her soul is fine." Anthony's mind went blank for a mont until he took a deep breath and sighed; his heart began to calm down and the cold sweat running down his forehead and back ceased.
The reason he almost lost his mind was because, sohow, he had absorbed Angela's soul. Sure, killing her would be fine, but a person's soul was delicate. He couldn't bear the idea that this could affect Angela in real life, leaving her dead in life, or rather, in a vegetative state.
He wouldn't have the face to explain to his mother or even to the emperor himself; things would have turned very ugly, after all, he was not an ordinary girl.
Fortunately, she was fine. He trusted the dragon's words. He carefully picked up Angela's body and laid it against a tree; murmurs and whispers entered his ears but did not affect him. After sighing again, he looked at his body; nothing had changed, besides, he felt a completely new mana, equally dark, but another kind of darkness; it was sinister and mysterious.
"You better hurry up and win the event; your body rots inside with every passing second," he heard the dragon's somber voice.
Anthony frowned in astonishnt. Besides being able to hear the dragon, this confused him a bit. "The essence of death is much stronger than darkness; your body cannot bear it. In fact, if it weren't for my intervention, you would have rotted on the spot. I can only give you a few minutes, maximum about 40 minutes, but in the process your body will crumble into pieces.
You are reckless; it is not yet ti for you to activate this essence. You barely have control over the darkness," the dragon's voice was serious; even Anthony felt he was angry. He knew he had done wrong, but still wanted to try it. "I'll apologize to him later," he thought internally.
His body sank into darkness, clinging tightly to his sword, the only object that wouldn't make him lose his mind. His black eyes shone as he watched Ezequiel's bloodline activation, smiling cruelly. He had unfinished business with him, and his sword glowed even more intensely, montarily calming him, but his gaze was still laden with murderous intent towards Ezequiel.
His relationship with him had always been contentious; they ended up fighting during training with Athena.
The darkness surrounding him moved like a beast, advancing towards Ezequiel like a tsunami. The latter had a somber expression on his face, while his spear glowed intensely. Anthony moved his sword, unleashing an imnse shockwave that shook the earth. Golden mana emanated from Ezequiel's body, forming miniature lightning bolts that clashed with Anthony's dark aura.
The two exchanged blows of tal against tal, with Anthony's eyes shining brightly and his mana overflowing like water. The screams of agony and murmurs intensified, while hundreds of human faces ford on the ground, emitting a faint green light from their eyes and mouths.
Ezequiel felt as if his blood was freezing rapidly, his mind freezing for a mont as his passion diminished and his pupils dilated.
Suddenly, his body's mana exploded, and the skies opened up, descending like a teorite a huge storm of black lightning that violently clashed against the rest of the island, unleashing a catastrophic storm. Nicholas, Charlotte, Daniela, and Edward's eyes widened in surprise at the magnitude of the phenonon. Nicholas closely observed the lightning, quickly assessing the situation.
After hesitating a bit, he glanced at the other three, aware that he had a better chance of defeating them.
With stealthy skill, his body turned invisible and moved silently among the wreckage of the ground caused by the black lightning. He completely ignored Anthony and Ezequiel, considering them out of his league. He drew his silver daggers, dodging the energy flashes with difficulty, approaching his targets struggling to survive amidst the chaos.
His green eyes focused on Charlotte, while he glanced at Anthony and decided it was better to have him on his side.
As an assassin, Nicholas possessed great skill in assessing his opponents and strategically selecting his moves. He knew his teammates well and knew that Anthony was especially protective of his wives. He also knew that Ezequiel had tried to flirt with one of them in the past.
With this information in mind, Nicholas calculated that having Anthony as an ally would be more beneficial for him in the current situation. He wouldn't die so miserably.
