Sin

Gazing at the few million armed soldiers with axes, spears, bows, even guns personally delivered by me, I grinned with delight. Ashna's hideout was only a few minutes away as we left in the early morning, and It was currently the height of the light as I gazed at the massive castle in the distance.

Sending Lilith a deep glance, she gave me a loving smile when suddenly a virtual screen appeared. Staring at Grey's cold eyes, I knew he saw the little present I gave Selma.

"From your stare, I'm guessing you are still in pendragon?" I indifferently said, "Do you disagree?"

"Yes," said grey with a hint of frostiness," She would never allow this, nor would I. Arsene, it may not mean much to you, but I am disappointed in your actions."

Clenching my teeth inwardly, I smiled outwardly, "Everything comes with a price, Grey. You pounded that into my head. I have never pretended with you. I was a demon before I became a demon; you and I both knew this."

"I will not pretend, Grey. I do not care for the lives I ended. Ashna had years over me; they hid in plain sight. I knew this long ago, and I believe you are aware of this. Killing Ashna now is impossible. We both know that, but one thing we can do is slow her down. I am far from becoming a god Grey." I explained with a bitter smile.

"We needed an edge, and I am giving it to you. Your wife is dead. What she thought has no relevance as you have to live with her passing. You have to suffer every day, knowing you will never feel her touch. We are being hunted, and I will not allow that to happen to me. Nine years I hid for, no more."

With one final glance, I severed the connection releasing a deep breath of my own, "What's going on with me?" I asked aloud as I felt my heart being clenched.

Wrapping her arms around me, Lilith sighed, "We are soul benders Arsene. The stronger our core grows, the stronger the capacity of feeling we experience. There are many mysterious regarding us, but one thing is clear, losing someone to a soul bender is a curse. And Grey is the same, do not hate him as he is a slave to his own memories of his wife.

Gazing at Lilith as she spoke, I felt the connection between us getting stronger the longer we remained together. We spent a week training together, doing nothing aside from shedding blood, but I felt the most alive with her.

"Do you think what I did was wrong?" I asked as she quickly nodded to my surprise.

Giggling, Lilith burst into laughter, "Come on, Arsene, while I don't really care for the lives that were lost, it was wrong. I'm sure you know the differences between them by now. I will stand by you, but I hope you understand the difference between right and wrong."

Glancing up at the azure skies, my mind trailed off as I pondered over Lilith's words. Slowly my mind grew cold as demonic light filled my gaze, "I follow the path of Sin. I will do as I please to achieve my happiness. So I will not regret for there is nothing to regret. Killing is my nature. "

Giving me a passionate kiss, a depraved gleam flashed through Lilith's eyes as she nodded, "it doesn't matter what happens if I have to slaughter every man and god in the omniverse, I will stand by your side. To reach you, I don't mind killing trillions, just to see you again."

Returning the kiss, I gazed up at the azure skies, slowly turning dark as a crimson formation appeared, radiating a terrifying pressure.

"Godwin, Romga, Pendragon, your sacrifice will not be in vain," I muttered as I felt a deep set of eyes glaring at me. Smiling, Lilith and I beamed in joy as we turned to the young woman...that looked like...Shit...I'm sorry, Grey.

Losing my smile, I frowned as I snapped my fingers, "Inform Grey that Ashna is using his wife's body as her new vessel."

"Snow, do you really think this is enough?" Ashna bellowed as she rose high in the air. A destructive power arose from the void. Suddenly I felt a power surpassing the heavenly realm appear, pressuring my soul with its presence.

With an indifferent gleam, I sneered, "So this is what happened with her body. Is this the reason you are after Soul Benders?"

"It's impossible to use other people's bodies, but SoulBenders are different since we can use Soulforce without dying. Our bodies will accept those with different souls, unlike others." Lilith explained as she spat in disgust, "it's the main reason people hunt our kind. It's like having an extra life."

Clenching my fist, I felt a little sorry for my uncle his wife died for nothing more than to give this woman a body. Releasing a sigh, I gazed at my formation that had reached its apex. Pointing not at Ashna but at her base, I narrowed my gaze, "Detonate."

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unlike the beam I fired on pendragon, this one held three times the power as I watched as a crimson light rained down death. As if the pale rider had appeared, I watched as the million of soldiers I arrived with vanished their lives, joining those that they fought for. It was a waste of money to supply them with weapons, but I needed to keep up appearances.

Lilith had already teleported me away, but as I gazed up at the devastation, I smiled as the massive formation protection Ashana's base was all but destroyed.

"You have failed, Snow!" Ashna screamed as her arm began to bleed with greenish blood. With a look of disgust, I sneered with scorn, "I have prepared for years, while you merely thought of me as a foolish child."

Pointing towards the heavens, three similar formations began to form as I pointed towards the base below. "Detonate."

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM BOOOOOOOOOOOOM BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM.

The rays of death quickly fell from the heavens as I saw space crack in front of me as Grey stepped with a deprave gleam before he shot into the destruction without any hesitation. A power that was so terrifying I almost knelt, sensing the qi of heaven and Earth flowing from Grey's body. He had never spoken to me about his cultivation, but I was sure this man was close to the level of a god.

"Let's go; Shadow, call the boys. We will be killing everyone to grace this base." I yelled before turning to the gorgeous woman with a pale grimace, "Are you ready, Jane?"
