Chapter 389: Unmasking a Monster

Name:Omega Summoner Author:
The Greater Faceless One showed it true form and then reverted to Aspen's form. The young werewolves who saw how Aspen became an individual of pure flesh and back to his usual self with clothes even on became utterly speechless.

"Did I not tell you that the one that is leading you is a monster? Do you really think that a werewolf could do what he just did right now?" Adrian stated as his soulbounds surrounded the Greater Faceless One.

"Aspen might have used an ancient artifact! That must be it!" One of the young werewolves commented although there I still a look of disbelief written in her face. Even she is having a difficult time believing what she just said.

"I hope that you believe what you just said but then again your face says otherwise." Adrian pointed it out and the young werewolves who were noisy became sullen.

"You are not human!" The greater Faceless One stated.

"You think? Paradox, Summon Primordial Psyche Armament: Scythe" Adrian stated as he summoned his Primordial Armament: Scythe.

The scythe is the same as before but the runes on the blade became golden in color rather than its silver color. The scythe basically became more eye-catching and cooler looking but the skills are the same with half the cooldown per skill.

"Shadow Reaper!" Adrian muttered as his body melded into the shadows and vanished.

The Greater Faceless One became wary because the scent that the enemy was giving off completely vanished as if they disappeared from the world. Even the Shadow Wolves that are great in espionage were startled due to how perfect the invisibility that Adrian casted.

Adrian's Shadow Reaper skill is not just invisibility but true invisibility. True Invisibility does not get detected by even true sight gems as everything vanishes. Not even Adrian's evil eyes will be able to see the soul of someone who has a skill with True Invisibility.

The Greater Faceless One transformed its nose and eyes to that of a wolf in order to detect where Adrian will come from. Adrian then commanded Sirius and Kanlaon to attack the enemy as he approached. Despite being having True Invisibility, Adrian will become visible the moment he connects a attack.

If Adrian just suddenly appears after attacking, then he can get brutally attacked by the enemy. The damage in his next attack might be amplified but it is not able to burst down the Greater Faceless One. Sirius used his agility to try and attack the Greater Faceless One's legs while Kanlaon disabled the opponent from jumping high.

Adrian positioned himself behind the enemy and he immediately attacked when the perfect opportunity came. He swung the scythe so that he cleanly hits the neck of the Greater Faceless One. He was aiming for a critical strike for his 1000% damage amplified attack powered by the remaining Soul Essence and Nether Energy.

The Greater Faceless One did not eve see or react to the attack as this was an effect of True Invisibility. Even emotions that one projects will be erased to the point that killing intent will not be detected. Werewolves are an Erebian species that is dependent in their instincts but that is also their weakness.

The scythe cleanly chopped off the head of the Greater Faceless One like butter. Even Adrian felt something wrong because it felt like he only sliced through flesh and no bone. There was no feeling of resistance like when you chop bones using a knife.

The head of the Greater Faceless One flew off a few meters away but the body did not fall. The head that is cleanly cut off started to bubble and melt into nothing. The neck of the Greater Faceless One suddenly sprouted a new head with no defining features.

The young werewolves who saw this either puked or fainted with what they just witnessed. Those who did not faint could not believe their eyes as they suddenly realized that their life is a lie.

"From the look in their eyes, they are still clinging to the faint hop that everything that is happening now is a dream." Adrian thought as he immediately used Blink to gain distance from the Greater Faceless One.

Adrian's quick reaction made him dodge the quick swipe that the Greater Faceless One made. Adrian glanced at his previous position and saw that the arm of his enemy became hairy and grew sharp claws.

"Why is it not fully transforming? I thought beta werewolves could fully transform at his level but maybe being a Greater Faceless One is being a hindrance." Adrian thought.

Adrian immediately charged back in and the claws of the Greater Faceless One clashed with the blade of his sight. The sound of metal hitting another object could be heard during their battle. Adrian with the aid of his soulbounds are battling the Greater Faceless One toe to toe.

Seeing the perfect opportunity, Adrian used the second skill of his scythe.

"Burning Souls!" Adrian casted as a black phantom came out of his scythe in a straight line.

The black phantom then hit the Greater Faceless One and it became stunned. The Greater Faceless One's shadow suddenly rose and started hitting it. Adrian did not miss this opportunity and told all his allies to bombard the Greater Faceless One.

Kanlaon spewed his breath attack, Sirius used shadow spikes to impale the enemy while the two members of the shadow wolves threw daggers with wolfsbane. The Greater Faceless One could not evade as it was stunned in place with its own shadow damaging it.

The onslaught of attacks made the Greater Faceless One helpless and its health dipped to 20% in just a matter of seconds. It was then the instinct of a werewolf became much more prevalent than the control of a faceless one.

A howl of pain is heard, and a shockwave is released with the Greater Faceless One at the epicenter. Adrian saw that the soul of the Greater Faceless One became distorted much more than ever. The soul of the Greater Faceless One now has a wolf head biting off the human silhouette of its soul.

The physical body in question however became mad and feral. The Greater Faceless One turned fully into a wolf human hybrid. Adrian could see that the Greater Faceless One has lost all reason as there are now two entities fighting for its soul which means it has no control of its body.

The wolf soul might have been dominating at first, but the owner of the body is still the Greater Faceless One. Adrian must finish off the enemy before it gains full control of the body again. The Greater Faceless One charged towards the tied up young werewolves.

"Sirius use Phantom Rush. Kanlaon use your full power." Adrian commanded as he jumped into the fray and tried to finish off the enemy.

The two members of the Shadow Wolves did their best in protecting the tied up young werewolves, but they are getting pushed slightly. Even if Sirius attacked with all his might, the aggro did not switch to him. Kanlaon could also not be careless as all his attacks are area of effect which means he could hit the young werewolves.

"Soul Eater!" Adrian uttered as he spun in a 360-degree motion and the feral werewolf suddenly got light on its eyes one more. Adrian actually separated the spirit of the Greater Faceless One and Aspen with his own skill. He did not even know that he could actually do that, but he needed to finish off the enemy now.

"Paradox, summon Primordial Armament: Daggers!" Adrian commanded.

"Yes, master." The Cube of Paradox with a robotic voice.

The scythe in Adrian's hands immediately became twin daggers. The dagger also had an upgraded image as a gold shine could be seen radiating from its blade. The visual update made the dagger more exquisite looking but that did not mean that it was not the deadliest weapon in Adrian's arsenal.

"Soul Seeker" Adrian uttered as he pierced the right dagger on the Greater Faceless One's chest.

Adrian the used the other dagger immediately to pierce the same location that the first dagger pierced. A howl of defeat came from the Greater Faceless One and its health finally became depleted. Dozens of pale blue lights then scattered in the area and Adrian recognize what it was.

"The souls of the dead." Adrian muttered and it was not only him that could see them.

The young werewolves saw familiar faces from the ghostly entities that suddenly appeared before them. Some of the young werewolves started crying because it was their very own family that showed up. They all died due to a vampire attack or what they have been left to believe.

"Lost Souls of the Deceased. You must now rest for your soul has been trapped for too long in the material realm. Any longer and you will become evil spirits." Adrian stated but it was the AI of the game that is controlling him to say this. He also revealed his true form which made the restless spirits gather towards him.
