It was already too late. As soon as Iena entered, a figure rushed towards her. I flashed and stood in front of her blocking the figure from harming Iena. "You! Why did you stop me!? If you consume her here and now, you will gain all her strength!"
"And? What then? I consumed a friend to gain power? How does that make sense?" I was calm, a little too calm. While I was white and transparent, the me in front of me was blood red and full of malevolence. I even answered the other me back as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
"What is the point of a tool if you can not use it!? You want to grow stronger. I am just trying to help you out. Shed the blood of the few to get the highest gains. Is this thought not right? It's the same as if you were on the battlefield. Sometimes you must sacrifice a small number of people to save the majority. Although I would just kill them all to save the hassle, hehe…." The other me replied.
