The team moved at a fast speed. They don't have any reason to stop. The monsters in the dark forest are wild and always attack them however Basil stopped the monsters with his insane speed and strange power.
Because of that the team's travel speed doesn't decrease. The two days long trip becomes a day long. Not everyone can catch the speed nevertheless they continue to travel.
After a day passed. The team arrived at their destination. They are near the field. Although the demon army has not arrived at the field yet.
Because the team arrived faster than their plan. So they decided to rest and sharpen their battle instinct. Basil is meditating, and the other two followed.
Rita is focusing the energy in the surrounding area to have a maximum affinity with ice. Horace is looking at the field.
And I am doing nothing. I don't feel like wasting my time on these pointless things. Feeling the energy and honing your instincts? That is child's play to me.
Why can they do those things as I do?
I am sitting on the tree looking down at them.
Like thunder, a certain thought struck me. I have been angry at a lot of things and I can't control my emotions. Even now, this thought feels out of character to me.
I can't move in my mind.
Lucian is a hard time thinking about his situation.
From beginning to end, from where he arrived at this place everything seem unreal. I feel furious. The more negative emotions I carried, the more I lost control.
But it is like a drag. Escaping this empty world, having no responsibility. It's lonely. Everyone I met has a family, a person to love or be loved. Me? It's a joke.
And I must create a world where they live happily. The other part of me feels guilty, the other part wants to rip this apart.
I no longer see myself as human. I don't have the desire and yet I want something. It's hard to illustrate this emotion. I want to and yet don't want to.
My gaze becomes colder.
My theory is two souls in my body are fighting. The hero wants to save humans and God wants nothing but destruction. I know clearly who is winning.
I sighed. My knees are shaking.
I am losing myself. But what I am to being with. I don't have any clear origin. I just created it from nothing.
My breaths feel rough.
***
The morning is the day when we will fight the demon army. I see countless demons marching. Their face is like what you expect from the name demon, sharp teeth and no nose, long ears, and zero facial hair.
I don't see any creature aside from the demon. Their equipment is decent.
Basil who is now facing the army released enormous energy from his body. The other four do the exact things as them.
Rita and I were hiding in the forest.
Rita murmured, " Although this mission is hard, you don't have to worry about getting killed. They're the strongest fighter and our team never failed a single mission."
" Sure."
Rita looked at the stone-cold Lucian and said nothing. She doesn't why Lucian feel quiet during the mission, Elsa said he is quite a talkative guy. It must be he is nervous.
But the more time she spent with him, the gaze he put on his face become more terrified.
The demons raged. How could a team of four people want to stop their army?
The whole army charged at them.
Roar!
The war cry.
Basil took out the sword, and the light emitted from his sword. He took the stand holding the sword like a bat.
He swings. The light travels through the sword like an air blade. The moment the light touched the unlucky demon, the entire area exploded.
He swings like this five times.
Horace quickly went into battle with bare hands and start to rip apart the demon. The last two are nothing special. They just followed Basil and produced an earth wall and spike seems like the elemental's ability is the most common.
I looked through finding the strongest enemy. I can see two demons. Their strength is the same but the other one is slightly higher.
The strongest demon in this army jumped in front of Basil. His whole body is covered in white clothes. He immediately punched Basil.
But Basil managed to dodge while he cut the demon.
His sword suddenly twisted. Basil was sent flying away by an unknown force. The bloody Horace caught Basil, and because of that, he gave his opening to the demon.
The punch connects Horace's face beautifully. The impact was harsh.
Basil take out another sword from his ring and yelled. " Chaos!"
He swings his sword again. The demon tried to catch the sword but Basil suddenly disappeared and his white sword appeared from his place.
The slash comes from the back. The sword cut the clothes and reveal the demon's appearance.
His body is like two different demons. The face is even scarier than the average demon's. He is smiling.
Laughter comes out from the other place. Horace is laughing like a fool. He is holding his head. Basil is not looking good as well he is holding himself.
Their mind is being corrupted by the law this demon practised. The chaos law representative The demon named Lonnie.
The power to extract another mental state.
The filler two is not looking good well. They're outnumbered by the army.
I said, " Hey, it's our time." and went to the battlefield.
I can't wait to kill those guys.
Seeing them fighting makes my blood boils.
I charged at a lightning speed. The weaker demon can't handle my pressure with lightning and start to disintegrate.
I don't care about them. I expand my aura now I can what is going around me. Taking out the sword from the sheath. I pierced the sword into the throat of the demon. The demon is grabbing the sword, the blood is coming out from his hands.
Clearly showing the struggles.
I laughed and kicked his torso. With a backflip, I slashed another one behind my back. I cut everyone around me. I don't use any ability. I want to feel my sword. The feeling of cutting flesh. At first, I hated it but the more I feel this.
I began to enjoy it. I see blood forming under my eyes. The pie of a corpse stacking with my enemy's blood. I don't know them and I don't feel regret.
Surely and slowly I am losing myself. I allowed it to happen.
Because I am ____.
