The scarlet vines started to wither and the scarlet runes started to dim, and Kiean, standing in the middle of all that, slowly opened his eyes.
Wung!
A powerful blast of air burst from inside, turning the withered vines into ashes. The gloomy runes around the bones were lost and Scarlet, with only half of its upper body, landed beside Kieran's feet.
"You, you!"
The soul fire in its eye sockets flickered repeatedly, wanting to say something, but Kieran didn't give the skull a chance.
He placed his foot over the skull and slowly pressed down into its face.
Crack!
The red skull was stomped to pieces and the soul fire was extinguished, but Kieran didn't stop there.
Kieran repeatedly stomped on the red skull until every single piece of its skeleton was crushed to powder. After that, he laid his eyes on that string of prayer beads that Scarlet carried with it all the time.
