Chapter 159: 1 Month Later V

Flopping lifelessly onto my bed, I rubbed my head with a mix of anguish and pain.

I hadn't used this much mental strength since the time I had fought against the Imperial Knight, and even then, I had destroyed so many houses and streets in the process that I was put on the wanted bounty list of the city. 

I was only able to regain my honor after Rose talked to the mayor about all the wanted people I had killed before the incident, making him hesitantly take my face off the wanted posters. However, this did not stop people from creating their bounties in the underworld.

Countless rich assholes had put money into my bounty, therefore raising it to over 100 gold while also giving the nickname of 'The Demon' among those of the underworld.

Who knew those people could have been so nice to give me such a cool nickname, right?

Anyway, after returning from my first mission, I had started getting bored while at the same time, the goal of taking 3000 souls still loomed over my consciousness making me more desperate on finding souls to devour. 

A portion of that desperation might have come from the dopamine addiction I gained from the wave of euphoria I would endure after consuming souls, but we do not talk about that.

In the morning, I would put on the mask of 'Pandora White'. Sweet and innocent to the point where after a few days, people no longer started linking me with 'the demon' who would come out and night and take the heads of countless wanted people in the city.

While Pandora white had gotten the title of 'Angel' amongst both men and women, to the point where I am pretty sure she had her own Fanclub, the name Lilith sent shivers down the spines of everyone no matter if they were wanted or not. Only those who had ascended to the Platinum Tiers and about could rest easy as they knew that I must not be as strong as them looking at how the wanted people who had died so far were all in the Gold Tiers and less.

Sighing lightly, I slowly closed my eyes and started to feel my surroundings. Everything from the kissing couple upstairs to the random drug dealers outside could be felt. While to a normal person this would feel overwhelming or even annoying, to me it was oddly calming.

It felt like I had control over everything around me and that I was free from any of the burdens of life. That feeling quickly dissipated after remembering the feeling of almost dying a month ago to a crystal remnant, while flashes of my mother, father, and my sister appeared in my mind, making my mood worsen.

'I won't be returning any time soon, so should I go visit them in a few months?'

Silence ensued in the room once again, not that it wasn't silent before. My mind flickered through all the missions that I had gone on so far. Some of them were easy, others were extremely easy, and the only one that was even close to reaching moderately easy was the latest C Ranked mission I had to do for rose.

I and Rose might have gotten closer in the last month or so, but this did not mean we were friends. At most, we were accomplices that would hang out on the weekend while drinking some beer. Of course, being the good person I am, I did not do anything to her whenever she would get too drunk and instead would take her to bed and allow her to sleep. This allowed her trust for me to reach a new level after the first time she accidentally became drunk, and after that, we would hang out on the weekends.

On the note of hanging out, I had not seen Olivia since the day I had joined the guild. I knew she was alive due to the link we have, but she was never close enough for me to send a mental transmission to her. On the same note, I had not seen Yuri in a really long time, and apparently, the leader of the Thunder dragons that took care of the guild in this region was also on a mission, so you never know if they for some reason started to get along.

Worst case scenario, they had found a treasure and were trying to get it before the other guilds would, but what are the chances that would happen... Right?

After finally blocking off all the sounds from the outside and clearing my thoughts, I felt my head slowly sinking into the pillow under my head while my mind drifted into darkness before my very consciousness.

***

"Thy have sinned greatly human" A primordial voice crackled within the skies as multiple golden lightning bolts shot down from the roaring clouds and split the howling winds.

"Thy says I have sinned, but thy gods are the true sinners! Sending thou races to battle against each other, to find who the peak of mortal life is, yet it is all a ploy by thee to commit treacherous acts against one another! To make us weak and ununited!" A powerful voice that rumbled the heavens came from the timid-looking black-haired girl.

Her purple eyes glimmered with the light of stars, while her plus-shaped pupils encapsulated the size of the heavens and earth. Her dress that looked like it was made out of the fabric of the cosmos flapped in the wind, yet her domineering aura only enlargened with every second passing.

The blood-stained soil and the swords protruding the ground as if they were gravestones for every soldier that had fallen in this great battle rumbled under her glamorous purple-hued aura. Such power was not something even an astral being of the highest stage could imagine. It was a power that would make galaxies upon galaxies bow under her feet with a single glance.

This was the power of someone who had reached the peak of existence in their galaxy cluster. This was the power of someone who had reached the Blackhole hole cultivation stages...

This was the power of a Celestial Realm being!
