Chapter 180 - A Demon
A few seconds after she was devoured by the black hole. The blackhole dispersed and the colours returned, the blackhole used so much power that john was now out of breath
John began to wonder if what he did was really okay.
[She was another person who was being forced to fight... Maybe we could have saved her...] He wondered
A giant white gate was suddenly formed at the end of the room, the last floor was completed.
[Thank you...] Said a different voice
John didn't recognise the voice, it didn't belong to neither the dark spirit nor zestari, but it sounded familiar
John then quickly turned around back to where the black hole was, before he said
"You're welcome" with a relieved smile
John then turned his head back down towards his party and began to descend from the sky
He was drained, but he was feeling fine
[I was told Master Sylvia was alive... Where is she?] John wondered as he looked around
Suddenly, his head starting throbbing
"Now now..." John muttered as he tried to hold it back
But he couldn't. With every heart beat the pain around his head and heart would get worse, His head was pounding in pain along with his heart.
"Argh...!"
He placed his hand over his head and closed his eyes in an attempt to ease the pain but it wasn't helping
"Stop..." John muttered
His strength was fading, growing weaker, at an increasing speed.
[Sana]
John tried casting Sana all over his body but it didn't help. His consciousness was fading and his vision was getting blurry
"I can't... fall asleep..."
He was doing everything he could to stay up, but his body was already shutting off by itself
As his eyes began to close... He began to wonder if this was going to be the last time he'd be able to see them
"Master... Serena... Ariel... Sorry..."
[Dying without even getting to tell them... How I felt... Damn... It...]
John's eyelids closed and he began to fall
He was way too high up, without magic reinforcement, a fall from that Height would definitely kill him.
However, Right before he hit the ground, he was grabbed by something.
He opened his eyelids to see what it was, and with a smile over his teary face, he muttered
"Thank you... Master... Sorry..."
It was a black shadow covering Master, a form she had used only once before when she killed all the assassins that attacked them.
The shadow which covered her disappeared, and she watched as the boy who laid on her arms closed his eyes.
"John... Hey... John! Open your eyes, John!"
Master who was never displayed her emotions was clearly shaken up
"Oi, Oi!"
*Crack*
A long dark hard horn suddenly popped out on the right side of his head, upon seeing this, Master Sylvia slowly placed him on the floor and stepped back
John opened his eyes; they were no longer glowing yellow but now his pupils were filled to the brim with darkness.
Dark air began to surround him, the pressure, air and feeling was completely different from the normal John.
John got up and looked around. A grin then appeared on his face as he began to laugh.
"Hahahaha... Hahaha... Ha..."
He then looked over at Master Sylvia, who was glared back. due to her careless mistake, her one and only disciple was possessed.
"Give it back." Master Sylvia calmly said
"Back? After all this work, you want me to simply give it back?" John asked
It wasn't right to think of that thing as John, his voice alone was that of a grown man in a child's body.
"This your last warning." Said Master Sylvia as she raised her daggers
They became engulfed in a dark flame as she entered the offensive stance.
John on the other hand, Just stood there with an amused look
Master Sylvia Vanished and reappeared behind him. As she swung the blund end of the dagger at the back of his nape to knock him out, she was stopped by something hard in the air.
As then muttered a few words before she dropped down and tried to kick his legs to knock him off balance
Once more, the hard thing that blocked her appeared, however, her movement was a fake. Right as it appeared to block it, She shadow stepped in front of him before landing a kick on his face
But the kick was cut short and never reached it as the same hard thing from before blocked it.
Master Sylvia's movements were slowed because of the wound she had suffered on her stomach. She was able to stop the bleeding but any more and she would open it up.
"Is that all? That's disappointing." Said John as he appeared right next to her
Surprised, Master Sylvia turned to him when all of the sudden, she noticed that His dagger had stopped right in front of her throat
She didn't see it, his movement, it wasn't shadow step, yet she couldn't see or sense it.
"Hm? He's still fighting back?" John asked before letting out a sigh
He moved his dagger away from Sylvia's neck and turned to the gate before he noticed two girls standing in his way
"Serena... and Ariel... Right? Don't worry, I won't kill you, just move out of the way." Said John as he began to head to them
The two girls kept quiet as they gathered their elements in case they'd have to fight.
He was stopped however, by Master Sylvia who grabbed on to his shoulder and said
"Wait."
"What?" He asked
"Leave the boy's body."
In that instant, the boy grabbed on to Master Sylvia's Arm that was on his shoulder and dislocated it.
"You don't seem to get it, so I'll put it this way. I'm doing a kind act of sparing you, so don't get in my way." He said with a smile
"No, you're the one who doesn't seem to get it."
Darkness began to surround Master Sylvia's body covering every visible part of it. All the could be seen was a shadow over it and red bloodthirsty eyes.
Even For Serena and Ariel who had seen that form before, they were terrified.
"I'll Say it again, Get out of his body." Said Master Sylvia with a distorted and scarier voice.
Seeing this, John let out a whistle as he said
"Wow, you managed to merge with your dark spirit.... I guess this might be more fun than I thought." Said John with a smile
