Chapter 24 - Fearsome Madness

The Centaur and IJ combat went on. The army seemed to never stop coming; it was always coming. Even though he was exhausted from fighting the monster for so long, IJ persisted in his fight since his might was starting to overwhelm him once more.

IJ wiped away the sweat on his brow and remarked, "This does not seem well for me." "Somehow, we have to put an end to these horse-like men."

Then, at IJ, a massive hammer hits the ground. However, IJ quickly reacted and avoided the blow, but the hammer continued to bang after it struck the ground. forming enormous cracks. Observing the holes the massive hammer had left in the ground, IJ remarked, "their strength is somewhere close to that elder of the planet."

The monster wielding the hammer turned to face IJ and withdrew his weapon. He swung his hammer again. Stroke IJ, who was staring at the monster attempting to attack him once more. With a retreat.

"Kill them"

Inside of IJ's head, a voice speaks. IJ said in his head "It's happening again." His entire body ceased to move at hearing that voice. When the giants saw an opportunity, he swung his hammer and struck IJ. then as it struck IJ in the stomach, IJ fall to the ground. and dust appears 

Ugh…

The monster observes the dust that the hammer's impact on the ground has caused, and he smiles. "What's so funny?" a voice out of the dust exclaimed. after the dust has settled. IJ got to his feet, but his balance was poor. Blood stained his nose and mouth.

Then, IJ spat the blood that was in his mouth onto the ground. also with a grave expression. As IJ's eyes grew brighter, he turned to face the monster.

RUH?"

IJ. stood ready to rush at the monster and stated, "This was good hit, it truly did woke me up well, thanks."

The monster yelled as he swung his hammer at IJ, feeling a little uneasy. "This voice is loud, you punk.", IJ remarked with a smile. His expression started to resemble insane madness.

He approached the monster from behind with a showy speed and used both hands to grab its head. And…

Crack… 

He needed no effort to break the monster's neck. "This was simple."

Steps of running was heard as the army rushed towards IJ but they felt more angered. "yes, come and see your death" said IJ with a smile which was completely like a man who was filled with madness. 

After that, he charged towards centaurs and started breaking their necks. As he extended his hand, a ball covered in flames materialized. Then, he gestures at a few of the centaurs. and threw the ball.

The ball exploded as soon as it got near the centaurs. The centaurs were soaked in black flames, screamed in pain, and fled in all directions, their minds going blank. slamming into one another.

Gradually, the fire starts turning the monsters into ashes.

"who's next?" said the madman.

The entire scenario was seen through the enormous mirrors that were both on Horn Ton's planet and in the worlds of those who had participated in the war. Who saw that evil-smiling king there? The humans also did so.

All races were watching the act of IJ in the coliseum; there was silence, there were surprises on many faces, there was hatred for the king and enjoyment of the way the king was fighting. Some others remained silent.

"Did I not tell you, my servant?" The monster, perched on the throne, placed his chin on his fist and remarked, "He is somewhat exceptional; he arrives in this world very rarely." As the attendant glanced at IJ via the mirror. Watching silently and paying close attention to the young man,

"Yes, my king, we definitely need this human in our army for the war," the man stated in a composed manner.

The monster smiled.

IJ said to himself, "This feeling was the same as back when I was fighting that bull." He seemed to be under the influence of something else because he was unable to control his emotions or his body.

IJ felt uneasy and attempted to calm down with words and force, but to no avail. The maniac starts murdering every centaur and giant that gets in his way. The most cruel method was to burn them with the black flames, although other options included chopping off their heads or breaking their necks.

However, the army of centaurs and giants was unafraid of this. Their minds were focused solely on one thing, and their souls were utterly empty.

"Kill him" 

As they charged at IJ, their faces were filled with hatred. They were being slaughtered ruthlessly. Even those who were wounded but still alive continued to assault, despite their bodies being unable to support them, cuts or burns on their hands, and weak legs making it impossible for them to move. They made an attempt to fight the Madman, who had turned into a murderous lunatic.

"Why can't I feel excited? "Why don't they fill my heart?!" IJ exclaimed while grinning menacingly. Leon realized he was staring at IJ via the enormous mirror at that very moment. said to himself. "Why is he acting that way, and what in the world is going on with him?" Since Leon had never seen IJ in such a state, he was likewise uneasy about IJ. He was experiencing complex feelings. telling Leon that the person in control of him might not be IJ.
