Morsh started absorbing the souls and his strength was rising exponentially as most of the souls were of the master ranked warriors,
After absorbing the souls he looked at the divine chains around his soul space,
"It's not enough... I need more souls to break this damn chains "
Outside the soul space,
The elf said to the dwarf while pointing at Leona, Luna and the butler,
"Carry those, we will need them if he ever gets out of the control "
The dwarf picked up Leona and the butler and said,
"Hero carry the little girl "
Pete picked up Luna and they then walked out of the village where a carriage was waiting for them,
They put Leona, Luna and the butler on the carriage and chained them up and rode the carriage,
After about a week, they reached the capital city,
They puts Leona, Luna and the butler in the prison and took Pete to the kings,
The dwarf king took out two black metal rings with red magic circles engraved on them,
He wore one and gave the other one to the elven king saying,
"Wear this, with this he will only obey our commands. "
The elven king nodded and wore the ring,
The rings and the collar shone as soon as they wore them,
The elven king then looked at Pete and the sword and ordered an elf,
"Give me that sword "
The elf took the sword from Pete and unsheathed it to present to the king,
But his soul was sucked by the sword and his body fell on the ground,
The sword excluded fear that even affected the kings as their hands were shaking,
The elven king ordered Pete,
"Put that sword back "
Pete picked up the sword and sheathed it,
The fear vanished as soon as the sword was sheathed,
The elven king then looked at the corpse of the elf,
"How did he die? "
Pete said,
"Anyone who touch my sword dies "
This surprised everyone but especially upsets the dwarven king,
He said,
"Alas, I wanted to check that sword and make replicas "
The human king said,
"What are you going to do with the hero "
The elven king said,
"We will use him as our greatest weapon against demons "
"But until then, he will stay with us as our guard. "
The elven king usually doesn't do much other than training in the morning and checking the army in the afternoon,
The human king would do all of the official work,
The dwarven king train in the morning and would check the equipment manufacturing in the noon and would get drunk in the evening,
They announced to the kingdom that the hero has been rescued from the grasp of the demons,
They would occasionally send Pete to eradicate the nobles that have grasped the situation of the kingdom,
They would do this in the name of demon eradication,
Pete also didn't let Morsh take over the body despite his promise and won't answer Morsh at all,
In his soul space, His soul was curled up with his hands on his ears and eyes closed,
But alas even if he closed his soul's ears, he could still hear everything going outside,
Six months passed by and in these six months, the elven king sent Pete to kill the noble families that opposed him,
During the killing of nobles, Pete has to kill soldiers, servants and sometimes citizens too that were blocking his way to their lord,
Pete has now given up the hope and was getting emotionless,
He would call for help from the goddess in start but now he just solemnly watched him killing innocent people,
After six months, he finally called out for Morsh,
"Hey Morsh, are you there? "
Morsh said,
"I am here, I can't go anywhere "
Pete said with a sad tone,
"Every species other than humans are truly evil "
"I will eradicate them if I ever take control of the body "
Morsh said in a teasing manner,
"Is that so? "
Pete said,
"Yeah, they treat humans like bugs and don't even think twice before killing them "
Morsh said,
"You won't kill them even after you take control of the body "
Pete said,
"No I will... I never go back on my words "
Morsh said,
"Says the person who broke the promise of letting me take control of the body "
Pete quieted down for couple of seconds and then said,
"Why do you want to take control of a body that is under someone else's control. "
Morsh said,
"Nobody can control me, and that collar is no exception. "
Pete eyes widened when he heard this and said,
"But you couldn't dispel the collar. "
Morsh said,
"But I can temporarily break it's connection when I take over the body. "
The faces of the humans that he killed flashed before Pete's eyes as he heard this,
He angrily said,
"Why didn't you tell me this sooner... Those people that I killed could be saved "
Morsh said,
"You didn't answer me and broke the promise so I didn't tell you "
Pete's expression changed after a long time as he gritted his teeth with rage,
Morsh on the other hand was smiling,
'Idiot... the organs created through the dark energy can't be controlled by the collar. '
'But I made them follow the commands of the collar before I was forced out of the body. "
Pete on the other hand was angry at first but has now seen a little hope,
"If he can control the body then I can too... I just need to find the way "
He began to think of a way to take back the control of the body but nothing came to his mind,
After a long time something came up in his mind,
'What if I observe Morsh and learn from him '
A little smile came up on his face,
"This is second time after a long while, I am feeling emotion after taking to that bastard "
Pete then said to Morsh,
"Hey, I will let you take over the body but you have to do what I say "
Morsh said,
"What's there for me If I do that "
Pete thought for a moment and said,
"I will request the goddess to make a body for you "
Morsh said,
"Ok but don't go back on your words "
Morsh agreed but was thinking,
'He is still an idiot... he thinks that bitch of a goddess will agree to his request '
It has been a year and half since the dwarves and the elves took control of the human kingdom,
The dwarves were now getting impatient,
The three kings were sitting together with Pete standing guard,
The dwarven king said,
"My people are tired of waiting... when are we going to attack "
The elven king said,
"We need to prepare to completely overpower the demons "
The dwarven king said,
"Why do we need to overpower them, can't we just take back our land "
The elven king said,
"No we need to show them our strength too "
The dwarven king angrily asked,
"Can we take back my land with the army now? "
The elven king nodded and said,
"Ye we can, but we won't be able to take back my kingdom after that "
The dwarven king said,
"No we can... we would have the technology from my kingdom to do that "
"With our technology, even half of the soldiers we have now can defeat the demon army. "
The elven king thought,
'This is good too... we can test the strength of our army this way '
He then said,
"We will march in 7 days, prepare the army "
The dwarven king said happily as he ran away from the room,
"I will inform the army "
Pete was watching everything from his soul space with solanum expression,
He said to Morsh,
"Hey, If I let you take over the body now, can you kill him "
Morsh said,
"Yes I can if you want the elves to kill all of the humans "
Pete asked,
"What do you mean? "
Morsh said,
"They will massacre the humans when they find out that a human killed their king "
Pete quieted down for some time,
Morsh was smiling while thinking,
'I won't kill this guy, this guy will play a big part in my soul collection '
With the order of attacking the demons, the army began to prepare quickly,
The dwarves were especially happy and were hastening the soldiers,
7 days passed by in the preparations of the soldiers,
With the sunrise of the 8th day, the soldiers marched towards the dwarven kingdom,
It took them two weeks to reach the sea where the ships were waiting for them,
The army boarded the ships and they all headed towards the dwarven kingdom,
They reached the kingdom in couple of days in sea and marched towards the capital city,
In the way they killed many monsters and low-ranking demons and freed many dwarven villages,
Some of the dwarves from the villages also joined the army,
It took them a whole month to reach near the capital city of dwarven kingdom,
The city has put up the barrier with demons patrolling the city wall and dwarven magic cannons aimed at them,
The elven king asked the dwarven king,
"How do we break that barrier "
The dwarven king said,
"There are two ways to break that barrier, first we break it by force and second we wait until they run out of mana stones that supply power to the barrier. "
The elven king said,
"How long would it take for both of the ways "
The dwarven king thought for some time and said,
"We don't have enough strength to break that barrier, so we can only wait and that is indefinite. "
"They might have hundreds of thousands of mana stones and we might have to stay here for months "
The elven king looked at him with disbelief and said,
"So you want all of us to wait here for months without any food or supplies "
The dwarven king said,
"No, let's just send the humans attack the barrier and with their strength, they would be able to break it in about a month "
The elven king said,
"What about the cannons then? "
The dwarven king said,
"Hmm.... I don't know "
The elven king was completely in disbelief and was just staring the dwarven king,
After couple of seconds, he sighed and ordered Pete,
"Go, check out the barrier "
Pete bowed started walking towards the city,
The number of cannons aiming at him increased with every step he took towards the city wall,
The dwarven king said,
"He will soon be in the attack range of the cannons "
The elven king said,
"Don't worry, he can handle himself "
Pete was now under the range of the magic cannons and the demons shot the cannons,
Pete unsheathed the sword and with a slash of the dark energy, absorbed the cannon shots,
The elven king said,
"Why is there no cannonball? "
The dwarven king said with a big smile on his face,
"Cannonballs are old technology, our cannons now shoot pure mana balls from the mana stones "
The demons were continuously shooting the cannons, but Pete was absorbed them,
Soon the mana stones in the cannons dried up and the demons started refilling the cannons,
Pete has also reached the barrier outside the city wall,
