Although his race changed, Desmond didn\'t feel anything at all. However, after his race changed, he could feel the connection between him and the strange black dragon become a bit closer. The negative emotions that suddenly appeared on his mind have vanished.
"old man, you must be tired waiting for me, right?" Desmond moved his body that surprised Weston, that was resting with a pale face.
He observed the black dimension around him with curiosity and found his movement was a bit slower than usual," This is a time control? The expert spell?" Strangely, only his body was affected while he could speak and react normally.
Weston did not reply. From the look, he was trying to waste more time for him to recover his lost energy. His eyes vigilantly gazing at Desmond, that still looked at him.
Knowing Weston\'s intention, Desmond suddenly vanished on the spot. Even though his speed became a bit slower due to being affected by Weston\'s spell, with his strength that surpassed the peak of swordsman class, the slowing spell on his body looked has no effect.
*boom*
As soon Desmond body vanished on the spot, the flat dimension ground blasted, making a huge ditch and a cloud of dust. Weston face changed into solemn. The energy began to gather on his while his mouth tried to chant the spell with a fast.
He tried to spot Desmond, but a cloud of dust disturbed his vision to see Desmond, along with some debris that flew to him.
On the other hand, from Desmond view, he already arrived in front of Weston that seemed did not realize. He could see Weston\'s mouth move at slow speed, his eyes still wandering around, trying to find his body with a frown.
Desmond also noticed some part of Weston\'s skin already become elastic, as if there was no meat inside it. The energy that slowly came to Weston\'s body made the current Weston look pathetic.
With a gentle movement, Desmond\'s hand reached his neck while the other pressed his chest. The moment his hand came intact with Weston\'s body, Weston\'s expression changed into fear.
Desmond could hear the increasing thump sound from the old man heartbeat. At the same time, the old man calm breath become uncontrolled as the sweat starts to appear around his forehead.
"Goodbye, old man," Still with slow motion, Desmond pulled out Weston\'s neck and pressed his palm to pierce his heart. The hand holding his head still raised, making all of the bones follow it, leaving only the skins with meats.
*blast*
The moment the slow-motion ended, blood blasted from Weston\'s body as he had already died that leaving his head and heart in Desmond\'s hands.
However, Desmond expression suddenly changed to frown when he noticed many elemental attacks that suddenly emerged from thin air and attacked him simultaneously.
He agilely moved between the spells and jumped around in mid-air, avoiding the impact, and safely landed back at Weston original position.
"What a troublesome old man," Although Desmond has confirmed the old man already died using the system, the ambushed he prepared was fatal to Desmond.
To begin with it, Weston was already weak after he casted three spells at once. In addition, with Desmond combat power still surrounded by mystery, Weston calculation goes wrong as he thought of Desmond as a 1st class swordsman, which was why the Expert Spell: Time control did not work on him.
"He really is a sly old fox. Knowing my eternal body, if I was a 1st class swordsman, I might die under his consecutive magic attacks."
The black dimension, the spells immediate broken and destroyed, leaving Desmond standing alone with Weston corpse on the ground.
"System, absorb," Desmond muttered and stored one of Weston\'s body parts in his pocket.
[Begin Absorbing…. | Time left: 6 hours 05 sec]
The people around the area were still shocked by the sudden change. They just saw invisible barriers envelop Desmond and Weston, but as they just blinked a few moments, Weston headless body had already laid on the ground.
*boom*
The mages reacted quickly as they had already finished their chant and their spell attacked Desmond; however, when their eyes just landed on Desmond, he already vanished on the spot.
At the same time, a loud breaking sound was heard from behind. When they turn around, Desmond already holding his sister in his embrace while caressing her cheeks.
On the other hand, upon seeing Alice weakened state, Desmond expression kept changing from anxiety, scared, rage and in the end, he could only wipe the tear from her eyes.
"Basic Spell: Heal."
[Host is penalized for using spells of 1st class spell]
[The effect has been reduced, the healing time increased and recovering speed become slower]
[System detects Host is sharing energy with other entities]
[Trait Effects is now being applied]
[Effect Number [3] Decrease the effect of shared anything -10%]
Desmond did not care about many notifications that blocked his view. Instead, his attention focused on his sister\'s blood on his hand while he could hear the weak breath from her mouth.
"Sister..." Desmond muttered softly. He gently looked at her face that was already clean as water. Her white skin became palled due to the blood loss, but somehow she could still breathe.
"B-r-to-," When Desmond noticed his sister slowly opening her eyes and speaking with a weak tone, the subtle expression on his face immediately changed as one of his hands rotated with his palm facing the back.
*crush*
A wind suddenly pushed his back as a blade was seen emerge from thin air, aimed at his head along with his sister body at once. Blood began dripping as the blade successfully pierced his palm and almost touched his head.
*crack*
As soon Desmond withstand the attack, the wooden floor below Desmond already broken, sending a shock wave to the surrounding object. Luckily he held his sister in his embrace, making her body did not fall to the small, newly created pit.
When Desmond peeked from the corner of his eyes, he saw the blade\'s wielder was Greyson with red eyes and tears dropping from his eyes.
"ACCEPT YOUR DEATH!" Greyson screamed loudly, and the soldiers around already got back to their feet and charged with their spears pointed at Desmond.
From afar, Jessy and the others also already prepared their spells like before, surrounding Desmond and Alice with many hovering magic circles.
