It was already too late. As soon as Iena entered, a figure rushed towards her. I flashed and stood in front of her blocking the figure from harming Iena. "You! Why did you stop me!? If you consume her here and now, you will gain all her strength!"
"And? What then? I consumed a friend to gain power? How does that make sense?" I was calm, a little too calm. While I was white and transparent, the me in front of me was blood red and full of malevolence. I even answered the other me back as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
"What is the point of a tool if you can not use it!? You want to grow stronger. I am just trying to help you out. Shed the blood of the few to get the highest gains. Is this thought not right? It's the same as if you were on the battlefield. Sometimes you must sacrifice a small number of people to save the majority. Although I would just kill them all to save the hassle, hehe…." The other me replied.
I shook my head. "Iena is not some tool to be used to gain power. She is a friend who is here to help. Why would I go through the trouble of summoning her to use her to gain strength that is not my own? Your way of thinking is wrong. Not to mention that in this situation, it would not even help."
"You are weak! How can someone like you be the one in control? If it were me, I would have just killed all my enemies, burned them all, and taken what I needed to grow stronger. This whole kingdom would have already been fully under my control. And from there….. I would expand until this whole world is mine. And I know you want the same!" The other me yelled out.
"What you want to become is nothing more than a tyrant. No one would follow a tyrant willingly. But let me ask. Why do you act as if you know me and what I want? I am not you. You are nothing more than a will that was implanted into me when I evolved." I did not understand why this ancient will thought I would want the same as it. I don't even want power. I just want to accomplish the dreams I have had since young. What is wrong with that?
"Implanted into you? Hahahaha! I never heard such a funny joke. Let me make this clear so you can get it into your stupid head of yours. I am you. I am the real you. The one you have been suppressing for so very long. The true you that wishes for bloodshed and wants to bathe in the blood of our enemies. We are the same. You just wish to suppress your true nature. The true nature that you have been trying to reject for so, so long. It was thanks to you deciding to evolve that allowed me to slip out.
"That allowed me to break off part of the shackles you placed on me. Do you know what it is like to want to come out and play and not be able to? Do you know what it is like to be stuck in a dark abyss with nothing to do but my own thoughts to keep me company? The me in front of you is the true genuine you, but you will not allow me to raise my head. Until lately, when things get too exciting for your feeble mind to handle, I am able to come out and play.
"Do you remember when I beat that group of kids up in the dungeon? Do you remember the thrill of their bones crushing under your fists? The excitement that came with the blood that splattered on your face? The smile and laughter you let out as you allowed your true self to come out? What about the war? When you could cut a man's head off without a care. The spray of blood that fell onto our body, making us quiver in excitement. That is the true you! The true you that you have suppressed for so long. So let me destroy this woman's soul, and we can consume it together and grow even more powerful than before. Hahaha!" The other me's eyes were feverish as if the thought of blood was like pure ecstasy to her.
"Are you stupid?" I asked. I still remained calm. None of her words affected my mindset at all.

"What?" The other me seemed shocked at my sudden comment.
"Do you think that just by saying some words like this that I would change my mind? Even if you are originally a part of me, the me of now is the true me. You are just an artifact of a bygone time. But from how I see it, you are nothing more than a part of the new bloodline I gained. You are just trying to get me to submit to your way of thinking so you can take over my body." I spoke slowly as I answered, making sure the other me heard each word.
"You still do not understand! Since you do not want to listen to what I am saying, let's just deal with this in another way. I will consume you now and take over. This way, you can return to who you truly are!" The other me suddenly charged at me. But I did not flinch in the slightest. I waved my hand, and a ghostly flame sword appeared in my hand, causing the other me to suddenly stop in her tracks.
"You! How do you know how to use soul magic!?" The other me yelled. But even I thought her question was rather on point. I did not know soul magic at all, so why was I able to use it so easily?
This was something I would have to figure out later. For now, I had to deal with the matter at hand. "Sorry to say, but I can not tell you since even I do not know. So let's just end things here. I will get rid of you once and for all!" I replied before charging towards the other me. But as my sword swung down, the other me disappeared. The room I was in returned to its white state leaving only me and Iena here.
"You will one day return to who you are truly meant to be! Don't think you can escape your true origins!"
