Looking between all of the materials he had Marcus contemplated exactly what he was going to use in the creation of his future amethros scythe.
‘Hm, I suppose if I want it to be the best, I should use all my strongest materials.’
Eventually he decided to use the Doomsday Worm’s core as the focal point of his future creation and use the other cores he got from Ardea to reinforce it.
However, while he had the plans and materials sorted out, he lacked both the time and facilities to complete it now.
‘I really want to get my skill level up to at least eight as well. That way I can really make something spectacular. I should make Frostine’s crown first as practice since I do not have many chances to work with amethros.’
With that decided Marcus put away all of the materials he had taken out into his item box, and a satisfied grin formed on his face as he continued thinking about the scythe he was going to make.
Though once he exited his workshop, he turned his gaze towards the southeast where Duke Scriven’s estate in the royal capital was and where he could find Algernon.
‘Time to make sure that he never bothers me or Lilia again.’
Disappearing, into the air, Marcus went into his ghost form and rapidly shot across the capital..
He already knew where his destination was, and it only took him around half an hour to be floating over the massive estate that was pretty much only smaller in comparison to the royal castle.
‘It is just as impressive as the other ducal estates I have visited.’ Marcus thought looking down at the massive mansion that was nearly three times larger than his.
Swiftly he descended into the mansion and slipped in without any problems.
While the place was certain to have all manner of magical defenses and sensors, as a spirit Marcus could slip by them easily.

Or so he thought, until he felt his danger sense go off as he was about to enter one section of the estate.
‘Wow they actually have a spirit sensing barrier set up. I suppose that is one of the strongest families in the kingdom for you. They are prepared for everything.’
Still while this certainly made things more difficult for him, it hardly would stop Marcus.
His target could not stay in the estate indefinitely and he only needed to find him outside this small barrier once.
Luckily it did not take him long, as in fact when he initially arrived, Algernon was not even home, and he found the guy returning in a luxury carriage.
‘Talk about good timing.’ Marcus thought as he descended into the carriage.
Inside he saw that Algernon was accompanied by two high level knights that were both almost level forty, and that he had a stunning woman sitting next to him who was his wife.
‘Oof, I imagine this is going to make her think much less of him.’
Marcus planned on thoroughly scarring the noble prick for going after his little sister, and he was pretty sure once the guy was screaming like a little girl his wife would be disillusioned.
To get things started Marcus slowly lowered the temperature of the air around the carriage until frost had built up around it and forced it to stop in its tracks.
Of course, this caused distress for the driver and the occupants of the carriage, but Marcus quickly knocked out everyone except his target and his wife with his phantom pressure.
‘Oh, he is staying pretty composed considering what is going on.’ Marcus thought seeing Algernon hastily try to activate a distress signal magic tool.
Unfortunately for him, Marcus simply knocked it away before he could activate it by creating his spectral arm for a moment.
At this point Algernon and his wife began to panic since their guards were unresponsive and they were being besieged by some invisible foe.
Marcus simply let them stew in their fear for a few moments before continuing his plan to frighten his target.
He slowly made just his right hand reappear and placed it on Algernon’s shoulder.
Frost lowly built up around him and Marcus activated his life drain ability and sapped away just the slightest amount of Algernon’s life force.

The proud noble screamed his lungs out as this happened, and his wife seeing a disembodied hand on her husband’s shoulder actually passed out from the fear.
‘Hello there Algernon, you have done something unforgivable, and I have come to judge you.’ Marcus said directly into his target’s head with telepathy.
Hearing this the scared son of a duke froze up and looked back at the hand that was still latched onto his shoulders and prevented him from moving.
Tears were welling up in his eyes from fright, and Marcus really could not blame the man in this situation. Though it did make him smile a bit since he remembered the tears Lilia had shed in distress.
“I have not done anything wrong; you have the wrong person!” Algernon eventually shouted with his fear laden voice.
‘Oh, but you have. You plotted to harm some girl simply because her sister rightfully humiliated you.’ Marcus said getting to the point.
He knew just scaring Algernon was not going to be enough if he did not know the reason why.
Though as his target heard this the pitiful man seemed to regain some of his confidence back.
“So, Irene Geist must have sent you. Does she think she will get away with sending a spirit after me?” Algernon said, trying to sway the being that was terrorizing him.
Of course, he did not recognize Marcus since he had taken on one of his many forms and was in the form of one of the criminal’s souls he had devoured long ago.
This way even if some sort of magic was used to look through Algernon’s memory or something to a similar effect to replay what happened there would be no actually evidence Marcus had been here.
‘Hm, you seem to be under some misunderstanding. No one sent me here, I seek out those that do wrong and set them right, or I end them.’ Marcus said to Algernon.
He then floated so that his body was hanging upside down and made his face appear for just a moment in front of Algernon.
With the dim lighting and the sudden flash of a humanoid face in front of his own, the bravado Algernon was feeling went away in an instant, and he slammed back against the carriage as he jerked back, startled by Marcus.
‘Now if you wish to live, I recommend you repent and change your ways. Bring harm to others for such petty reasons will only bring about your end.’ Marcus said as he began incasing Algernon in more front stating from his feet.
Finally, he drained a bit more of his life away until gray hairs started to appear from the sudden life drain.
It was not enough to make much of an actually impact, but there was no doubt Marcus had just siphoned a few years of life away from Algernon.
‘Now this will be your only warning. If you continue to harm people, I will come back for you and take vengeance for those you have wronged, and next time you will not get away with just a little scare.’
