Chapter 223 - B-But I Killed You (15/20)

Suddenly, as if my clairvoyance had stopped working, I felt an immediate threat from behind. It was then that she flickered, appeared behind me, and even though an image of her attacking me from behind flashed in my mind, due to her speed that was way above mine, I could not react in time.

Multiple images of all the places she could have stabbed started to flash in my mind.

My heart began to race while my mind started to go into overdrive.

*SLASH*

*Thug*

*Thud*

The sound of two thuds, one much lower in volume than the other, rang out in the violent winds of the snowy tundra.

My lifeless head lay two the side of my motionless decapitated body while blood began to spew out of where my head once was.

As the blood gushed out of where my head had been severed, it immediately dyed yuri red. She was covered in blood that continuously dripped down her body and eventually, created a pool of blood below her feet and around my body.

It was only then that Yuri was able to finally sober up, making her eyes widen while she looked down at the slushy red ice. 

Her eyes began to shake while her whole body felt as if it was about to collapse. The urge to vomit had only increased this whole time while the mushy red snow did not help her.

"I killed them..." She spoke with lifeless eyes while clutching her head as if she was trying to block out the sound of something

*Rumble* *Rumble*

The entire throne world began to rumble and shake violently. Her constant shudders sent countless fissures to form in the ground. Trees began to break, crack and even fall. Literally, everything was falling apart.

On the outside, they could see that the ice orb had begun to crack all over as if it was about to shatter into a million pieces at any second now.

"What's happening?" Olivia shook Rose who had come closer to Olivia to describe what was happening inside. Olivia had been tense ever since Yuri had pulled both of them into her throne world, and since she knew Yuri would not be stable right now, especially after only coming back from a mission where she was tortured and left on the brink of death every day.

"I have no idea..." That was all that Rose could say. At this moment her mouth gaped and her eye was widened. Even though these expressions were mild at best, for someone as cold and 'emotionless' as Rose, anyone would think that with such an expression she must have just watched a normal farm goat kill a 500-year-old dragon.

Olivia could only scratch her cheek before continuing to watch whatever was happening.

It only took half a minute more for the throne world to crumble under Yuri's broken state of mind. In the middle of the shattered ice was Yuri sobbing while her shoulders began to vibrate.

"Hic... Hic... I killed her... She saved me and I killed her? Why did I kill her? I don't want to kill... Rose... Why didn't you stop me?" She looked at Rose's cold expression with tearful eyes.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU STOP ME!?" She wailed

"Stop you? Why would I stop you?" Rose lifted a brow

"BECAUSE YOU PROMISED! YOU PROMISED ME THAT I WOULD NOT LET ME GO BERSERK AGAIN! YOU PROMISED!" She began to sob even more before covering her face with her hands and sobbing into it instead out outwardly.

"So you're scared of blood huh?" Yuri heard a familiar voice from her right side. The voice wasn't mocking but instead, it was curious and even a little mysterious.

"L-Lilith?" Yuri looked to her right and saw a 5ft 5 girl with golden blonde hair that went down to her shoulder and no lower.

"Yo~" I just waved at her before almost forgetting about her existence.

"Y-Yo?" Even more, tears began to come out of her eyes.

"Heh? Why are you crying?" I started to panic as I took out a handkerchief from my dimensional ring

"I killed you" She sobbed

"You didn't though..." I paused and looked at her with squinted eyes and an agape expression.

"What? Is this a dream?" She began to hug my lower weight while crying into my forbidden area.

'Oh god... I am being turned on, right?' Sweat had begun to pour down my back.

[Let's just say that just from looking at your blood circulation, if you had a penis you would be suffering from an erection right now.]

'Ugh... Why do all the people I fight have to me so emotional?' I cried inwardly

[I know right! Remember that guy you fought almost half a month ago who started to cry in the middle of the battle?[

'Oh my god yes! He started crying about his kidnapped wife and his dead kids... Now that I think about it, we probably should have avoided killing him'

[Oh well. People like that are bound to be killed eventually. They get so hungover people they were close to that when those same people are taken away, they start crying. Look! This is why having friends and people close to you is a bad idea, yet for some reason, you are not taking my advice, and instead, you tripled your followers... *sigh*]

'Whatever. It is nice having friends around you all the time. Maybe I can get something like the friend group I had back on earth, right?' I nervously chuckled.

[Almost impossible. In a world like this, it will be very hard to find someone who truly cares for you. The only way to gain proper friends is to have them indebted to you. It is very rare to come by an angelic soul like Juilam's. So powerful yet so humble]

'Right' I nodded.

"How did you do it?" Yuri's voice finally entered my ears. It seemed like she had finally composed herself after becoming a crybaby.

"Uhm, well, it is a little complicated." I rubbed the back of my neck awkwardly

"I want to know to. What did you do?" Rose looked at me with a rare glint of curiosity in her eyes. Her eyes were practically sparkling even though her tone of voice did not show any of the same enthusiasm that appeared in her eyes.

'Oh wait.. That is her soul energy, not her eyes' I practically gave myself a spiritual facepalm for forgetting to turn off my divine eyes.

"Okay well, I have to start with the beginning of the battle...."
