Chapter 810 - 811 – Top Hat – Part 26.
<<Week…. It took an entire week of nonstop fighting!>>
<<No rest.>>
<<Just battle.>>
<<It was…. Mad….>>
<<I ripped its limbs apart, over and over again, but it was able to recover them.>>
<<I thought if I were to completely destroy one limb, it would give me some edge, but it could even restore IT! A WHOLE LIMB!>>
<<I cut apart his flesh, his scales, his bones! I cut everything up!>>
<<But he wasn't dying!>>
<<I've noticed why.>>
<<His blood.>>
<<The entire city should had been already somewhat submerged in his blood…. Yet t wasn't?>>
<<The answer was simple.>>
<<His blood was returning to his body.>>
<<His cut off chunks of body would turn into a liquid blood, before then going back to his body, reforming it and restoring it.>>
<<A powerful regenerative power which can be used to even restore this giant's body and he also possess extremely durable scales?>>
<<…>>
<<Still, it does take him time to recover from bigger wounds.>>
<<And that means I can kill him!>>
<<For entire week when we fought, I cut him and ripped him, over and over again.>>
<<His regenerative power maybe monster like!>>
<<BUT I'M ALSO A MONSTER HERE!>>
<<OVER AND OVER AGAIN! I CUT HIM TO SHREADS!>>
<<Even when my body would end up crushed beneath his claws!>>
<<Even when that liquid light would burn me!>>
<<I DID NOT STOPPED!>>
<<Days and night, I ripped him apart.>>
<<A repeating story.>>
<<A repeating fight.>>
<<A repeating nightmare.>>
<<Swing after swing!>>
<<It maybe monstrosity of nightmares, but I was killing it.>>
<<The damage I was inflicting to it was way too sever for its regenerative power to keep up.>>
<<And after one whole week…. I did it.>>
<<I ripped him apart.>>
<<I stood there, on top of his bloodied remains.>>
<<His bones broken.>>
<<His limbs, eliminated.>>
<<I even destroyed its whole jaws and throat, making sure that it could not use that liquid light ever again.>>
<<…Still… Even when its guts were straight up scattered throughout the whole city, it was still alive.>>
<<I could feel its pain.>>
<<Its agony….>>
<<…>>
<<Its fear....>>
<<But even so….>>
<<….>>
(No…. Maybe now…. Maybe now?) – thought Jack as she lowered her sword…. Not finishing the creature…. And instead reaching towards it with her blood made hand, touching the bloody remains of the creature.
<<I've tried to save him.>>
<<I know! I FUCKING KNOW!>>
<<THE RED DRAGON IS THE ONE IN CONTROL!>>
<<AND I FAILED BEFORE!>>
<<BUT MAYBE! MAYBE THIS TIME I COULD DO IT!>>
<<While he is nothing more than chunks of flesh! Where he is at his weakest!>>
<<Maybe I could do it!>>
<<It couldn't move!>>
<<It couldn't fight back!>>
<<It was my chance!>>
<<I used the divinity of the Red Man, trying to reach right into the Red Dragon's being…. Trying to dig out Julian.>>
<<He didn't deserved this!>>
<<HE SHOULD HAD NEVER BEEN TURNED INTO THAT!>>
<<I KNOW SITUATION WAS HOPELESS!>>
<<BUT I WANTED TO TRY!>>
<<I WANTED TO SAVE HIM AT LEAST ONE!>>
<<….But….>>
<<As I've reached deeper and deeper into the soul of this monster…. I saw only "Red".>>
<<But I didn't gave up.>>
<<I dug deeper and deeper.>>
<<I wanted to believe! That there was at least SOMETHING in here!>>
<<In this "Red" mud….>>
<<….>>
<<And then I saw it.>>
<<A hand.>>
<<A human hand.>>
<<HE WAS HERE!>>
<<HE WAS STILL INSIDE OF THIS "RED"!>>
<<I COULD HAD SAVED HIM!>>
<<I grabbed onto that hand!>>
<<…>>
<<But the moment I did…. I could feel it.>>
<<The gaze.>>
<<And in the next moment, I was kicked out.>>
<<The Red Dragon kicked me out of its soul.>>
<<IT DIDN'T WANTED ME TO RESCUE HIM!>>
<<But I wasn't going to give up!>>
<<NO!>>
<<I SAW THE LIGHT!>>
<<….>>
<<I saw the light.>>
<<A white light.>>
<<The moment I tried to go back in… I saw the blood and the flesh of the Red Dragon turning pure white.>>
<<…. I was wrong.>>
<<I thought that the liquid light was created by some kind of organ… That if I were to destroy its mouth, throat and organs, it would no longer be able to produce that liquid light.>>
<<But I was wrong.>>
<<This liquid light… It wasn't some kind of by product from an organ or pure magic…. No.>>
<<It was blood.>>
<<The Red Dragon was turning its own blood as liquid light before firing it from its mouth.>>
<<And this monster…. It knew it couldn't win against me.>>
<<But at the same time, it was a creature of pure bloodlust.>>
<<All it wanted was death and destruction.>>
<<And the moment this ability was taken away from it…. The moment it was "stopped"?>>
<<The Red Dragon whole nature, its whole being, it denied being "stopped".>>
<<And so…. It did it.>>
<<It transformed everything it had.>>
<<Every single bit of flesh.>>
<<Blood.>>
<<Bones.>>
<<Its entire being was turned white.>>
<<I…. I knew that it would explode.>>
<<I knew what it was doing!>>
<<And I could had stopped it!>>
<<I could had used one year of my life! I could had used the divinity of the Red Man and my own life to exterminate this monster, stop it completely!>>
<<…>>
<<But I hesitated.>>
<<Because I remembered that hand inside of him.>>
<<That I saw "Julian" remains inside…. I… Hesitated.>>
<<And that was the stupidest decision that I ever made…. Because this moment of hesitation was just enough…. For the white to ignite.>>
<<In an instance, a white liquid light erupted.>>
<<The entire being of the Red Dragon completely evaporated in instance…. And as it did, that light devoured the whole city.>>
<<It wasn't even a second… It took less than a second, for the entire city to get swallowed by the light…. And in the next?>>
<<It was just… Gone.>>
<<That light… It devoured, straight up erased the entire city in instance.>>
<<EVERYTHING was erased in mere seconds after the light appeared!>>
<<Every building.>>
<<Every corpse.>>
<<Every machine…. Just…. Everything was… Erased from existence.>>
<<…And it wasn't just the city.>>
<<Entire territory around the New London was also swallowed by the white light and straight up erased from existence.>>
<<However…. Few seconds later after the light had appeared…. It was gone.>>
<<And with it, the entire existence of the Red Dragon.>>
<<It was just… Erased.>>
<<…>>
<<But it wasn't the only thing erased.>>
<<The entire New London.>>
<<It was…. No more.>>
<<It was erased.>>
<<And it wasn't just a surface.>>
<<A massive crater covered in white burn marks was stretching straight up kilometers underground where the once advance city was once in.>>
<<…And I was inside of it.>>
<<The moment that blast was unleashed…. My entire body was…. Destroyed.>>
<<Nothing more that buddle of blood remained.>>
<<I was the only "red" thing inside of that massive white crater.>>
<<Honestly…. I didn't knew if I was even alive…. I mean…. I was just BLOOD!>>
<<That blast straight up obliviated my entire body! My entire fucking being!>>
<<But…. I was alive?>>
<<…>>
<<It was only thanks to the divinity of the Red Man that I survived.>>
<<There was no other explanation.>>
<<And thanks to that divinity… I was able to resurrect myself, from just puddle of blood.>>
<<However, my blood was beyond damaged by that liquid light…. And the entire crater was still burning with that white light… Burning me alive.>>
<<It took me over a year…. A one whole YEAR! To resurrect myself!>>
<<From that burning white canyon… I awoke….>>
<<…>>
<<And I remembered everything the moment I did.>>
<<I knew where I was…. And what happened.>>
<<I realized…. I realized what had happened.>>
<<…I…. I killed them.>>
<<I let the Red Dragon…. Detonate…>>
<<I let it…. Kill them all….>>
<<The New London…. And… And….>>
<<…>>
<<The people I tried to save.>>
<<The slaves…. The ones that I've tried to save… They were erased without trace.>>
<<Everything was gone.>>
<<There was just…. "White"…. No "Red"… Just… Pure "White".>>
<<When I got out of that burning canyon…. I saw it.>>
<<The pure destruction.>>
<<….>>
"Ha….Ha….Hahahahahahahah…."
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!"
<<I've did it again.>>
<<I fucking slaughtered innocent people again…. ALL BECOUSE I FUCKING DIDN'T USED MY FUCKING RETARDED BRAIN!>>
<<I FUCKING SLAUGHTERED THEM ALL!>>
<<ALL OF THEM!>>
<<EVERY SINGLE OF THE PEOPLE THAT I'VE TRIED TO SAVE!>>
<<THE ONLY FORM OF REDEMPTION I COULD HAVE EVER OBTAIN! I JUST THREW IT AWAY!>>
<<WHY?!>>
<<BECOUSE I TRIED TO SAVE SOMEBODY WHO WAS BEYOND SAVING!>>
<<I WAS FUCKING STUPID FUCKING WHORE!>>
<<A WHORE THAT COULDN'T EVEN THINK AT ALL!>>
<<I JUST…...>>
<<…>>
<<I just…...>>
<<Killed everything…. That I cared for…. Again…. And again…>>
<<Why?>>
<<Why I'm this?>>
<<Why I'm murder?>>
<<A monster?>>
<<I don't want this…. I don't…>>
<<Why?>>
<<Just… Why?>>
<<Why I can't save anybody and only kill?>>
<<Why I'm this thing?>>
<<…>>
<<…>>
<<But…. There were survivors…>>
<<However, they were not the slaves.>>
<<No.>>
<<I fucked up.>>
<<I thought these bastards would try to defend their home…. But instead, they abandoned it like the cowards the moment the monsters got inside.>>
<<The people of the New London were still alive.>>
<<They escaped.>>
<<These fucking inhuman "things"…. Had escaped from my grasp and were free.>>
<<I…. Failed….>>
