Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality



"H-How.... How did you create an array this quickly... Unless-"

"Oh? An array? Well, I called it an artificial spell, but array doesn't sound too bad either." Silas shrugged with a wry smile.

"..."

"What's wrong? Cat got your tongue?" Silas asked with a mocking tone.

"This doesn't change anything..."

"And that's where you're wrong... It changes everything! Everything from this point forward has been changed. You are no longer in control. You no longer hold the lives of thousands in the palm of your hand, with their deaths being a single snap away at your choosing. I took that from you." Silas cackled.

"That's not what I was talking about... Your family. I wonder how they're doing right now while you're having all the fun in the world, running around the Xylem kingdom and killing everything in your path." Greed sneered, yet Silas simply closed his eyes and smiled.

"Oh?" He muttered, his voice now cold and distant, with his killing intent.

"We both know it happened... And in the end, the prince is under my control. I can become queen in a decade or less. And you... You can be my right hand man!" Greed spoke with the enthusiasm of a salesman.

Her eyes glistened slightly as she looked at Silas' closed eyes, however, just when she thought she wouldn't get a reaction yet, he suddenly disappeared from where she stood.

"You really think a tiny power up would make you stronger than me?" Silas asked, his cold and deadly voice trickling down her ears like ice-cold water.

Greed's entire body tensed up, while every hair on her body stood at its ends like a cat in fear.

She quickly jumped forward before turning around and landing on all fours.

Her fangs showed more than the rest of her teeth as they were the most prominent, while her pupils had turned into slits, that stared into Silas' soul like two sharp daggers.

Or at least, that was the intention.

Yet, when her eyes landed on Silas', she quickly understood something...

A cold shiver ran through her body once more while her tail fluffed up as if it had been hit with electricity.

Life, Death, and Eclipse all stepped forward with their weapons in hand, yet Silad quickly raised his own hand and stopped them.

"She's mine." 

They all halted their steps before taking one back.

"Oh? Y-You really think you can-" Greed couldn't even finish her sentence as suddenly, there was a fist slamming against her abdomen, sending pain through her guts and torso alike.

Within an instant, she flew back several meters, crashing into dozens of buildings before eventually landing on all fours once more.

"You know..."

However, just when she thought she could get a breather to heal from the first punch, a voice entered her ears from the right.

Before she could even look in that direction, a fist slammed into the side of her head before smashing her into the ground with so much force that it destroyed the building next to them,

"They say cats always land on their feet," Silas whispered, his hand now tightly wrapped around her face with an iron-clad grip as he slowly raised her off the floor and forced her to look into his eyes.

At first, Greed may have thought that the information about his parents hadn't affected him at all. When she saw this, she was quite worried.

A man who does not value the life of anyone but himself was unpredictable... No... Even worse, they were uncontrollable and disloyal.

The fact that it looked like the information had gone over well with him either meant that he already knew about it, or that he didn't care, however, since she had done a little bit of questioning before, she knew that the former was impossible.I think you should take a look at

However, the latter was even worse for her.

She was thinking about what kind of monster they had brought to this world by bringing him to the organization, but now that she was looking into his eyes, she knew that her earlier assessment was incorrect.

Silas might have seemed like he wasn't affected by the information she had given to him, but now that she was looking into his eyes, she saw something else...

Fury...

Pure rage...

Rage beyond anything she had ever seen before.

An amount of rage that no human should be capable of creating.

But what was even more terrifying than that was the fact...

The fact that Silas' rage was controlled.

And at that moment, she understood something else too.

She understood that they hadn't given birth to a monster by bringing Silas to the organization.

They had brought a monster into the organization, and now they were going to suffer for it.

*BOOM*

Silas crouched before shooting up with so much speed and force that his body pierced right through the earth above.

The light of the sun barely shone through the dark clouds, as winds and rain poured down from the skies above, washing over the entire forest with power and intensity.

Trees could be seen dancing to the howling winds, while thunder crackled throughout the skies and reverberated like a titan's roar.

Silas continued to fly further into the sky as rain and wind crashed into him with even more ferocity when he reached higher altitudes.

Greed tried everything from biting Silas' hand to trying to shake herself off his grip, yet nothing seemed to work.

Even with the mana wrapped around her body, it wasn't working.

She didn't understand it...

How was he suddenly so strong?

How was he beating her so easily?

"Let go of me you bastard!" She cried out, however, his words were muffled.

Yet, despite that, it seemed like Silas understood what she had said, so without thinking twice, he grabbed her by the top of her head and allowed her to see the world below.

They were at the very least a hundred or two meters above ground, and when she saw this, she felt her heart drop to her stomach.

"What's wrong..."

"Scared?" Silas asked with an extending smile.
