[Bl...Blood…Blood...Blood]
An eerie murmur echoed in Heinkel's ear as the reddish light washed over.
Looking down at the magic circle, he tried to stop his consciousness from sinking away and heard the voice.
He was taken by surprise finding himself alive even though he had offered his life in exchange for the summon.
[What do you want, human?]
A cold eerie voice echoed.
"Heavenly Spirit Ajkerbern, please descend upon the mortal plane and eliminate the fools who are opposing the resurrection of Evil God Mephisto and help us capture Saintess so that we can use her as a vessel for Evil God to descend.]
A deep silence reigned for a moment.
[I can't]
"What?"
"Why?"
"We are doing this for the Evil God.So, why are you not helping us?"
A panic-stricken voice erupted from Heinkel. He had sacrificed his own and his underlyings life to summon him so as soon as he heard refusal, his heart sank.
[Fool, did you think The Evil God needed you to think about him and how dare you insult My Lord, by preparing a weak human vessel.]
[Moreover,the sacrifice isn't enough for me to descend.]
Heinkeil's expression faltered and his face became as pale as a sheet of paper. He sacrificed his own and other's lives betting everything on this chance but it was useless.
"No, it can't be. You can't do this. You have already taken the life force, you can't turn against us and break the deal."
Heinkiel screamed with bloodshot eyes.
[I am not breaking the deal, rather I will give you a portion of my power in exchange for the life force. You can do what you want with that power. After you finish your job, I will take away your soul.]
After the voice fell, Henkel felt a surge of power coursing through his vein.
"Ahhhhh!"
Heinkel's body morphed followed by an unending pain.
"Pow...hehe hehe...kill...."
Heinkel started losing his mind due to his immense power. His body started to swell and his face distorted, having a bizarre smile hung over his entire face.
Saliva dripped from his mouth like a dog that found its delicious food.
"Power...More power...Kiehheeee!"
A screeching voice akin to nails scratching over a metal surface erupted from his lips.
Finally, Heinrich's body exploded in various places and a turbulent energy began to spurt out like a stream from the gap.
Gradually, his body shrank and a large pair of horns emerged over his body. A strong muscular body was revealed however the previous sagging black flesh was dripping down from his wrist, ankles and feet as if they were lumps.
A dense wind emerged from his body, causing him to stay in the air.
Heinkiel started to rip off the dripping flesh. A shuddering sound as if a stack of papers were being torn all at once echoed. The black blood emerging from his instantly healed.
......
Lucas's expression turned ugly seeing Heinkel's transformation. The morphing of his figure into a monstrous humanoid was utterly disgusting.
"It seems the summoning failed but he got some power in exchange for the life force. His body is still in the transformation stage and his power is unstable. If we need to get rid of him, we need to hit now."Lucas murmured while supporting Julian whose expression became male.
"Lucas, leave this place. I will take care of it. I will use the strongest attack in my arsenal."Julian spoke while gasping heavily.
"I can't leave you in this condition. You may not die but you will surely be comatose."
Lucas didn't doubt Julian's words. If Julian said she will finish things, that means she can but what will happen to her after she defeats him?
She may suffer a strong backlash.
As Julian faced Heinkel, a pair of warm hands touched her back startling her. A chill went down her and turning around, her eyes became sharp.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm "Lucas leave, don't be stubborn and waste time."
"It's my order so just get out of here," Julian ordered and started condensing her mana while suppressing the pain.
"Your Highness, I can't."
"Don't forget, I am your Secreatry.You are the one who forced me onto this position.Since,it's my job to assist you, I am just doing my job diligently.''
"Is this the only reason?"Julian's startled voice echoed.
"Yes!"Lucas spoke firmly, baffling Julian.
Seeing her ugly expression, Lucas felt a loss of words.
"Your Highness, I am helping you. I have a way to alleviate your pain. So, even if I am overstepping my boundary please bear with it."Lucas shouted and poured warm mana inside Julian.
Feeling a warm sensation coursing through her and suppressing the pain, Julian's eyes widened.
"How?"
"Please focus on dealing with that bastard. I will explain it after we get out of here." Lucas spoke and focused his attention on channelling the mana.
As Lucas sank further and focused on circulating his mana, his eyes widened with horror and he stared at Julian's back as if she was a monster.
Most of her vessels were blocked by strands of ice and mana flowing through her was clashing against the ice strands. Her mana channels were quite unstable and she could only use one-third of the mana she had.
"Arghhh!"
Lucas snapped out of his thoughts feeling a numbing pain coursing over his arms. His eyes flashed with surprise seeing his hands covered by a layer of ice.
The curse that Saintess spoke about was acting up trying to eat Julian's mana and freeze her vessel. On top of that, the amount of mana was too much and so vast that mana filled with fire elements that Lucas poured was like pouring a cup of hot water into a vast lake.
'Damn! I am an idiot.'
'How can I be so naive thinking that I can cure her with this? For the first time in my life, I overestimated myself too much.'
Lucas's mind started to run wildly thinking about a solution
'Since I have taken over the barrier, Saintess could communicate with other territorial Lords and might have already sent reinforcement. We need to get out here.'
Lucas then stared deeply and decided to knock Julian down and run away but this wasn't as easy.
'I need to hit her and take her down.'
"Child, it seems you are in a dilemma. So, let me help you a bit."
A sweet melodious voice rang over Lucas's ears, snapping Lucas out of his thoughts.
Taken surprised, Lucas looked around, searching for the voice and then noticed that the tattoo on his right wrist left by Shiya glew and a woman covered in flames manifested out of thin air.
She wasn't big and was over half metres in length.Her hair were made of flames and she wore a dress of bright crimson colour.
Although, she looked like a child, her voice was serene and warm like a compassionate mother which make Lucas think,'Another loli,'
'Wait!Are all nature spirits like this?'
"What the hell?Who are you?"
Lucas's heart became weary seeing the spirit's sudden appearance.
What if she attacked them or had bad ill intentions?
"Don't worry, just keep going.I am here to help you,"The woman muttered and her palms rested on Lucas's back.
A fierce fiery aura erupted from Lucas and encased him wholly basking me in warmness.
The ice covering his hands receded and with a jolt, a surge of warm mana poured into Julian's body giving her a jolt.
Julian felt her body becoming light. The fiery mana fought over ice strands blocking the vessel and pain was alleviated to a great extent.
The fiery mana melted the frozen icy strands of mana that quickly started to circulate into her vessels providing her instant energy.
She felt light and overwhelmed. It was as if she was brimming with strength and vitality like never before.
Surprise flashed over her eyes as she turned towards Lucas.She could see the pain Lucas was suffering as he tried to help her. Even though he was helpless, he still did his best.
He could have just run away but he didn't. He was just a 2-Star but despite this, he stepped up for her.
Without his appearance, her life might have been in peril today.Thinking about this, a strange unknown feeling welled in her heart.
She felt quite complicated seeing this however she shook her head to get rid of the unwanted thoughts and focused on the Heinkiel whose attack crashed onto them.
