Mass killing

The shockwave alone destroyed half of the walls I had put up in front of me. I felt many soul flames pass me in quick succession which made me thing I was about to be attacked just to realise they were all small and dim. They weren't getting any brighter so I went to the location of the soul flames to absorb them.

There lay countless charred black body parts that were burnt beyond recognition. I touched the body parts that still had a bit of soul energy left within them. My greed for soul energy sparked with my rage and I found myself sucking the bodies dry off any life they once had within them.

The pleasure was bitter sweet. I felt something deep within me finally flaring up as my face turned flushed and a huge smile grew on it.

-"W-what t-the h.... WHAT THE HELL"-

They all looked at me in pure horror as even the leader had turned pale.

Leader's POV

---

All of us stared in pure horror. We had all seen creatures that are able to use killing intent but we had only heard of creatures who are able to use blood lust. One thing about blood lust is that the creature loses all its senses and attacks on its wild instincts. We all new this... yet... yet no one took advantage of this fact.

We had all froze when we saw the smile on the monster within the shell of a little girl. No human can crack a smile that big, it was simply abnormal. We were all frozen stiff, not moving a single inch in hopes that the monster wouldn't see us if we didn't move. She had already killed around 20% of our men with a single spell, meaning she must be out of mana, right? Yet no one too advantage of that fact.

We were all so scared that our minds went blank and our instincts told us to run, yet we didn't move an inch.

Finally, one of us grew a set of balls and shouted "c-c-c-CHARG-" before being decapitated. The little girls smile went back to a small smirk. Her black trench coat flapped with the wind as multiple embers flew past her, avoiding her aura at all costs. Her golden aura was so magnificent that most of the men were put into a daze when looking at it. It flickered like a gentle flame in the eye of a hurricane.

"{Sniper...}" She separated her extended hands in front of her face before saying "{galore!}". None of us knew what she said, but the moment she clapped it didn't matter. A flurry of elemental bullets passed all of us. 12 of my comrades died immediately with shots in the head, yet I was the only one left alive. I immediately charged towards the little girl with all my might, kicking the found from the floor high up while preforming multiple hand signs for a water trident. This was an intermediate spell that I had been taught by the boss and was the second strongest spell I knew.

The moment I was 20 meters away from her, I felt something whiz past my cheek making me feel a stinging pain from it. It felt like an invisible knife had barely missed my head, yet it had so much power behind it that it caused a shallow cut on my cheek. However, I did not waver like the monster in the shell of a little girl expected. I charged forwards, for everyone I knew! FOR MY COMRADES AND THEIR SACRIFISES.

I WILL NOT LET A SINGLE ONE OF THEIR LIVES GO TO WASTE, AND I WILL SLAY THIS MONSTE-

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I shouted as the pain from my right shoulder reverberated throughout my entire body. Blood was gushing from my wound. My arm had been completely detached from my arm with a slash of the monster's blade.

NO! I MUST STAND! FOR MY CHILDREN! FOR MY WIFE AND PARENTS! FOR EVERYONE I KNOW AN LOVE! I WILL NOT LET HIM TAKE A SINGLE ONE OF THEIR LIVES JUST BECAUSE I FAILED A MISSION! NEVER!

I burning determination flared from my eyes making my pupils turn into slits. My strongest spell, 'Beast mode' had activated and was locked onto the girl in front of me with the rage of a dragon who had just lost its child.

I stepped forwards again, ignoring the pain ravaging my body and turning it into rage and power. The air element reacted to that rage without me needing the use of hand signs and started to commit a barrage on the child monster in front of me. As I gritted my teeth, dozens of air spears were created and spun so fast they created ripples and vortexes on the tips of them. Then the water reacts to my call, ravaging the trident within my hands with a current so strong that it would pierce through the strongest of metals with ease.

The dozens of air spears plunged towards the child while I threw my trident in the middle of the barrage to hide its presence within the flurry of attacks. Yet, even after showing the child how determined I was, after releasing all my fury and suffering into my attacks, the child stood there, unwavering with the same smirk as ever. She looked like someone who had stopped to look at the sunrise, appreciating its beauty yet not caring for the magnitude of what is really happening when the sun falls under the mountains.

Then, I heard it. It was neither loud nor was the words spoken vulgar. They were simple, said with a sweet child like voice that sent more creeps and shivers down my spine than soothing and relaxation. It was barely a whisper, yet it was like a sonic boom to my ears.

"So determined. So full of wrath. So unwavering even when you are covered in wounds. You know, recently I found out something... The slower they die, the tastier they are. I wonder, what if..." she said while smiling ear to ear again. In that moment, all of my life flashed before my eyes, as every single memory of my parents taking care of me, of my children hugging me, to my wife giving me unwavering love. All of it flashed before my eyes. I had realised that if I fail now, not only will they all be tortured to death because of me, but I wont be able to hear a single one of their laughs, cries, scolding's again. I wont see the worries in their faces whenever I leave for work, nor will I see them smile again, nor will I be able to hug them again.

A giant wall made of earth erupted from the ground and slowly turned into magma before launching forwards. The girl moved her whole body in a fluid motion yet precise motion, making the lava catapult towards my spears while bursting into blue flames and taking out half of my spears. A quarter was then taken out my the fire, earth and air infused blade that shot three elemental slashes, two that were in an 'X' shape and one in the middle.

The rest of the spears missed except one, the trident. It went right throw the magma and through her stomach before she could even react, making blood start to spew outwards and guts be splattered behind her. Yet, her smile didn't twitch for a single second, just becoming wide that before starting to look almost demonic.

"D-dem-m-mon!" I said with a while stuttering with a cracking voice.

"hmm, maybe I am a demon.. Tell me my dear butcherer... Am I a demon?" The little girl said while pulling out the trident from her gaping wound, allowing it to heal slowly, yet visibly to the naked eye. Her eyes started to flare violet with an unsustainable hunger for something. Her voice had turned demonic as if three different voices were overlapping each other.

"Tell me now.." she said looking around while her wound started to heal the remaining small three puncture within her abdomen "Did you lose hope? Did I crush our dreams? Did I make you feel sorrow? Did I make you suffer?" the girl said with an amused smile and mocking eyes looking deep into my soul.

"f-f... F*CK YOU!" I said with my remaining voice.

Her smile only grew wider though, as she tightened the grip around her sword making her hand turn even paler than she already was.

"Good" she replied with a monotone voice before lighting her sword with a blue flame and cutting my other had off.

"I'll Cut your remaining limbs off and make you suffer so much pain that when you reach hell you would be thanking the devil for finally taking you in"

Pandora's POV

-10 minutes later-

When I finally finished with the man in front of me, he had been inured and healed so many times that his soul flame couldn't take it anymore and collapsed under its own heat.

For some reason, as long as I was touching him, non of the soul flame's heat had gone to waste and when it finally collapsed, I felt euphoria unlike anything I have ever felt in my lives. My years of hoping to one day lose my virginity were in hopes that I would finally feel pleasure from someone I loved. I had imagined that the feeling would be amazing and otherworldly before realizing after years of built loneliness and and riches, it was quite overrated. Maybe it was because it wasn't someone I truly loves but in the end, I was truly disappointed.

Today though, the feeling of euphoria when the man finally died surpassed all of my earthly expectations, making me almost addicted to the feeling after one dose of it. My body spasmed for 5 second straight before I was able to regain my cool and finally sit down while drowning the sight around me into my head.

I felt nothing towards the massacre of the humans around me, yet pain started to slowly course throughout my body only becoming stronger after every breath.

"UGH! WHAT THE F*CK!" I blurted out when the pain became unbearable.

Shit! Is this because of my reckless use of mana? I was so full of adrenaline that barley felt a sting!

I started to roll on the floor in pain, trying to find any way to sooth it, yet I found none. The pain somehow only grew worse over time, and when I finally thought it would be over it would hit me 3 times worse than before.

I finally passed out after swearing in every language I knew and showing creativity by combining Spanish, French, English and Zogarian to make a nice flow of swear word roll off my tongue as if I was fluent in the use of the combination they would create.

Before I finally passed out, I saw a huge wolf with white feathered wings come towards me followed by a pack of yellow furred white maned wolves behind him. My vision then turned blurry before going black and passing out from the pain.
