Chapter 301: Name (1)
Thump—!
My heart throbbed as the demon's demonic energy, circulating through my veins, amplified all my attributes. With my Sharp Eyesight, I observed the Devourer, and in the darkness, its eyes locked onto mine, snarling and desiring my body—an ancient demon, its dark crimson eyes flickering like mist, a ferocious beast that had devoured innumerable souls over the ages.
However, the method to exterminate it proved unexpectedly straightforward, as demon annihilation was, from the outset, based on a fundamental principle encapsulated in the well-known saying—An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth...
... Up to this point, my thoughts were rational, but thereafter, I moved by instinct.
The surging demonic energy ignited loathing in my mind, and the Yukline bloodline incited me to be the quintessential Yukline mage, to the extent that even my peak mental strength, at this moment, merely served to distinguish friend from enemy—to control my hostility from turning on allies, or rather, I was deliberately refusing the purification of my mental strength.
Fwoooooosh—!
I first observed it with my Sharp Eyesight and pinpointed its coordinates before immediately releasing all the demonic energy within my body to freeze it while the Snowflower Stone's ultra-low temperature immobilized the gaseous creature in an instant.
Then...
Cruuuuuuch—
The sound of something tearing filled the air. In the very next instant, a torrent of demonic energy flowed into my mouth—the taste of something not human... yet undeniably alive.
Crunch—!
