“Hihi, is that all you got?”

Kali laughed as she coldly gazed everywhere around her. She wielded her scythe and thousands of needles were flying around to protect Shin, herself and injure the beasts.

Within a second, more than five of the beasts died by Kali’s onslaught.

Further behind Kali, stood a girl with a cold expression on her face as she nocked her bow, sending an arrow flying every half a second. The enormous bow in Lola’s hand was light and she nocked the arrows lightly, but the arrows pierced through the hardest armours of the beasts.

Lola’s cultivation strength wasn’t as high as Kali’s, but Lola was able to fully use her abilities to the extreme, she had been practicing using with a bow since she was five years old.

As Lola had a clear view of what was happening, she had to tell the changing situation to those who was in a chaotic battle as Kali, Aria and Azane.

“Mother-in-law, in around fifteen seconds, a group of nine will arrive at your front.”

Lola spoke in a calm voice as she nocked another arrow.

“Don’t call me ‘Mother-in-law’…!”

Aria’s cold voice entered Lola’s ears.

“Just call me, Aria.”

Lola nodded without thinking before glancing somewhere else, she widened her eyes slightly before speaking hurriedly.

“Azane, a group of assassins are about to go through your line of defence…”

Before Lola could continue, she saw Azane swing her halberd into the assassins Lola was speaking about. The assassins were cut into two from the waist.

“Hahaha, I got this under control!”

Azane laughed out loudly as she continued fighting.

Lola’s eyebrows twitched for a second before she hurriedly glanced at Shin, Eline and the Guardian holding a pike near Shin.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, what she saw was Shin’s fingers twitching slightly.

“Are you ready…?”

Lola asked in a low voice that only she could hear.

At the same time, Shin was focusing on one thing…

Deep inside of Shin

Shin stood in front of a dark sculpture of himself which had cracks on it.

“Will you be able to hold on until everything is over?”

Shin asked in a low voice as he lowered his head. After thinking about it for a while, Shin shook his head.

“I only need to defeat everyone; Muir, the Gods, perhaps even the Nobles and that man…”

“If, no… I only need to defeat them all. For the ones I love, I will have to fight with everything I got.”

“Just don’t break while I am fighting, I don’t care what happens afterwards…”

Shin had a faint smile on his face, he extended his arm and touched the crumbling sculpture of himself.

Outside of Shin

An aura abruptly gushed out of Shin’s body, the aura was dark in colour and it shook the heavens and earth.

Lia and Eline trembled as they were the ones closest to Shin.

Anaj on the other hand glanced at Shin with a smirk.

Finally, go ahead and wreak havoc!

Shin opened his eyes slowly and glanced at Muir, the Gods and even the Noble in the bright light.

His face did not show any expressions at all, even his eyes which usually shined brightly was dimmed slightly as it disdained everything.

Lia shuddered when she saw the sudden change of Shin, she had never seen any more terrifying expression in her life. But, somewhere deep inside of her, she knew that this was the Shin’s real face…

When Shin glanced at the ones he loved; family, friends, Guardians, a faint smile appeared on his face. But, it changed to a cold gaze whenever he stared at his enemies.

The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

“Muir… You have been harming my family since the moment I was born. You murdered my father. It was your fault that my mother had to suffer. It was you that killed the Guardians. It was you that killed Kuugo… I, I can’t stand this any longer, you will have to die here!”

Shin spoke coldly as he walked towards Muir slowly.

When the Guardians saw that Shin was about to act, they all retreated behind Shin’s back.

“Humph, what can a brat like you do!?”

Muir asked coldly as she glared at Shin.

“What can I do?”

Shin asked with an indifferent voice as he raised one eyebrow.

“What I can do is a lot. For example, I can do this.”

After Shin finished speaking, he vanished from his spot and stood right in front of Muir. As he stood in front of Muir, Shin rotated his body and sent a roundhouse kick and hit Muir’s chest, sending her flying over two hundred meters back.

Muir was shocked by the unusual strength of Shin, she felt her chest hurting after the kick. Before she could react, she heard Shin’s voice once more.

“Have you ever thought about this through?”

Shin asked as he looked at Muir indifferently.

“Do you really think that the Gods will let you become a God after this?”

“Are you delusional enough to think that they would stick to their words?”

“Humph…!”

Muir didn’t reply Shin.

“You were used by them.”

Shin continued speaking.

“You don’t have to worry, because you will meet them in the afterlife shortly…”

After Shin spoke, he vanished and appeared in front of Muir once again, but this time, he punched Muir’s face.

Muir could barely react, and that was all that she would need.

She flicked her finger, bringing forth five orbs surrounding her body. When Muir saw that Shin was in front of her once again to punch once more, she swiftly brought one orb in front of the punch.

Muir thought that it would hopefully block one attack, because it was all that Muir would need to counter-attack.

Sadly, she didn’t get that opportunity.

Shin punched through one of her orbs without any effort and punched back Muir once more.

Shin didn’t follow up at once, he shook his head and flicked his fingers, bringing forth his katana and dagger.

“I have to say.”

At the same time as Shin was attacking Muir, he spoke with a calm voice.

“Since the day I met you, I have been thinking about ripping you into pieces.”

“Not only that…!”

Shin’s voice suddenly turned cold as he narrowed his eyes.

“I want to ruin the plans you have schemed forth since back then!”

“I want to see you in despair!”

“I want you to see everything you have made crumble into nothingness!”

“Because in my eyes, you are nothing more than a mere insect bothering my family…!”

With using most of his strength, Shin slashed once more towards Muir, leaving a scar behind on her cheek.

“You little bastard…!”

Muir was fuming as she could barely keep herself calm.

Shin stopped moving abruptly as he glared at Muir. Shin opened his mouth slowly, the words that escaped his mouth were ice-cold and filled with wrath.

“Can you not see what you have done? You have pained very many people. Not only that, this is the first time I have been enraged since I came here…”

A vast amount of Power gushed out of Shin’s body.

“I have been trying to control myself… I really did try my best, but you have been pushing your luck for far too long!”

Shin said coldly as he walked slowly towards Muir.

Muir felt frightened, she sensed the Power Shin was releasing was much stronger than she could ever imagine. She tried to move, but she couldn’t even move a muscle, she was terrified, terrified of the youth in front of her…!

At the same time the Power was gushing out, Shin releasing his black aura, enveloping Muir in it.

Not even a moment later, a painful roar could be heard from Muir.

“What to do… Let’s try breaking your bones first, one by one…”

Shin spoke coldly as he glared at Muir.

“What next? Let me rip your nerves and muscles…!”

An even more petrifying scream escaped Muir’s mouth as she felt every single piece of her body being injured. It was almost like her body was boiling and insects was eating her from inside of her body!

“Do you like this?”

Shin’s voice was cold, but he was still calm.

“This is real pain… Pain that I have been suffering every single day because of you!”

From afar, Aria could hear Muir’s screams of agony and Shin’s words. She despaired. Yes, Aria felt despair and her heart was beating way too quickly, tears were running down her face.

Shin, sorry, it was all my fault that I couldn’t protect you…

“Innocence. Madness. These are the two personalities that I have…”

Shin was in a daze as he continued talking, but this time, Shin was speaking to himself.

“Being tortured, feeling the pain that no one should go through.”

“Do you have any idea what I had to do just to survive…?”

When Shin said this, he got out of his daze and smirked while staring at Muir.

“When I was despairing, something changed. I changed. I had to change to save my innocence for when I could meet my mother.”

“For the ones I love, I will forget everything about the pain that I suffered, because I went through all of that just to be with them. But, when standing in front of the ones I dislike, I will show you my other side… The side that wants to destroy everything…!”
