Chapter 41: Madness
Lathel let out a snort of laughter, "Pff! Hahaha... I’ll take that as a compliment."
He tilted his head, flicking his spear to splatter Mira’s blood everywhere.
A hint of amusement crossed his face as he glanced at Anna’s current state. "Looks like... my subordinate gave you a rather warm night, didn’t she?"
"Lathel!" At those words, Anna clenched her fist so tightly that her charred fingers, brittle as ash, crumbled to pieces.
Yet those fragments immediately turned into wisps of black smoke, vanishing into the air.
Lathel’s eyes flicked over, taking note of that small detail.
"I was right!" Anna gritted her teeth, her face becoming increasingly ferocious. "It was you... you’re the one who destroyed my family... ruined everything I had..."
With each word, the charred flesh on her face dropped off, exposing bone beneath, with a bit of fresh blood still flowing—like a demon from a horror movie.
A scream, like a wounded wild beast, full of rage and madness, tore from her lips.
"AGH!!!" Anna lost all composure, screaming as she charged at Lathel.
He sneered, swinging his spear at Anna’s head.
