The Walker Of Voids
Chapter 91 The Monarch Of The Autumn Forest [7] - Black Hole HorizonLloyd had been certain that using his void walker abilities would give him an edge over his teammates, but he was wrong. While power was everything in this world, skill and talent come second.
Lloyd's body might have been strong, yet even with [shadow enhancement], it barely reached the initial stages of the Topaz seal, let alone anything beyond it.
He lacked any decent power since he was still in the half-step first commandment, he lacked proper skill compared to the likes of Rex, Tina, Hime, or even Felix; and even though he has talent, it means nothing in a fight when you haven't developed the other two.
So when he watched as Lachlan's heart was destroyed right before his eyes, he felt like his world was collapsing in on itself, with him being the center of the collapse.
And throughout it all, despite everything in the world seeming to have slowed down to a snail's pace, he heard the same little voice, belittling him from within his own consciousness, telling him-
'This is all happening because of you...
If Roderick hadn't sacrificed himself for you, maybe they would have won...
You doomed them all. Everything began going to hell when you joined their team because you are pathetic, just like the other humans here.
Even Felix was doomed despite being of a superior race... But you. You did this.'
'Then take over... That was our deal, right? You can take over once, for 10 minutes if you teach me how to control the void. TAKE OVER THEN!' Lloyd roared as he moved through the flow of stopped time.
Everything became grey. And all colors except red were gone. It tortured Lloyd that the only color he could see was the red color of his friend's blood.
It hurt... It hurt right where his heart was supposed to be, yet every time the pain radiated from the center of his heart, it reminded him that he was no longer human. It reminded him that he was nothing but a void walker, destined to be hunted for the rest of eternity.
'Now, why would you assume I wanted to take over? To spare you the misery of watching your friends being slaughtered? No... I will make you watch as each, and every one of them is killed. I have been trying to help you since the day you found out about me, yet all you did was reject everything.
Remember when I told you that humanity will make you weak? What did you do? You strolled your way back to humanity and strengthened your connection with them.
You are weak, and today you shall see what weakness does to a void walker.'
"You'll be killed too, you moron! WE ARE THE SAME PEOPLE! You are me! I am you!" Lloyd roared as he fought back the tears threatening to gush out like water out of a broken dam.
"That's where you're wrong. We are not going to die. You, might die on the inside, but physically speaking, we will both stay perfectly alive, it is just that you are too stupid to see it yet, but you will eventually." A masked man appeared out of thin air as his monotone voice shook the world around him.
As the masked man turned around to look at Lachlan's extremely slowly falling body, yet his head perked up in realization before he turned around to look at the boy kneeling on the ground.
"Also, let me remind you that, despite inhabiting the same body, we are not the same people. Think of us as two sides of the same coin... Null and Lloyd. It just happens that one of us is vastly superior to the other."
*FWOOHM*
Just as fast as he had come, Null disappeared into thin air before color returned to the world, and so did the flow of time.
Lachlan's fall to the ground resumed, causing him to quickly hit the ground before a pool of blood leaked out of the gaping wound in his chest.
"Lachlan... NOOOOOOOO!" Felix roared as he shot toward Lachlan's body. His vision had gone red, yet when the moment of clarity came, Felix was too late.
A leg slammed into his stomach, shooting him straight into the air before he was quickly kicked in the chest and shot across the surface of the forest canopy.
Reaching Felix with an unbelievable speed that only Felix could rival, the monster clasped both its hands into a fist before slamming down with everything it had, shooting Felix into the ground and kicking up an enormous dust cloud.
In less than three seconds of Felix trying to avenge Lachlan, he was already on the ground and most likely already half-dead.
However, that wasn't enough for the monster. It was no longer playing around, and the moment it saw Felix lose consciousness, it plunged toward him with razor-sharp nails, ready to end it once and for all.
And then the monster felt it.
Something it hadn't felt in hundreds of years.
Actual danger to its life.
It was a feeling deeply imprinted in its mind, and it was activating again.
Like a sharp nail slowly slithering over its throat.
And that's exactly what it was.
A deep black blade shot toward the monster's neck as the runes engraved into it shone brighter than ever before.
They were being pumped with mana, to be specific, void-laced mana.
'Shit.' The monster thought as its eyes locked onto the weapon's wielder. Yet when it did, the monster wanted nothing other than to look away.
But it couldn't.
It was locked.
It was as if it was looking into the eyes of the devil, as every nightmare the monster had ever thought of flashed through its mind.
Fear trickled down its back, creating a cold yet powerful chill that shook it to its very soul.
It was as if the monster was staring into the abyss of death itself.
And in the blink of an eye, everything around the monster began to disintegrate in a flash of black and purple light.
