Chapter 18

Dark face flushed red, the knife in her hands weakened, her two hands tried to prey Cyra's hands away but it was like an iron grip. Cyra took the knife with her bleeding hands and slowly pierced it through Dark's throat,

''pffft...cough...'' her eyes widened in disbelief and fear as her eyes grew dim. She slumped to the ground.

''weak...'' Cyra muttered under her breath, her tongue licking her lips with a hunger to kill.

''Dark! Be fast. what's taking you time? Dark! Dark!'' kill shouted feeling restless and impatient. She waited and didn't get a response and she walked in angrily reading to give dark a piece of her mind.

She paused in horror when she saw dark bleeding corpse on the ground, she looked up in fury but was horrified when she saw Cyra soul curling smile. She looked like a horrifying seductive lazy beast, kill moved back unconsciously, her mind was screaming to get the hell out of here.

''oh~'' Cyra walked in a hunter's grace, the pressure coming from her made Kill shiver in dread, she was about to run, but she stumbled on Dark's outstretched hands.

She fell to the floor and she crawled fast, unable to stand up. She was drenched in cold sweat, she wished desperately she could fly out of there, her mind flashed when she remembered something, her scorpion tattoo glowed and a huge black scorpion appeared, it released its oppressive pressure, and kill regained her confidence.

Her soul beast has ingested many soul beast cores and flesh. it is stronger than anything possible. She smiled with confidence when she saw it tear apart the tent walls, destroying the tent completely.

Cyra saw this and felt furious unconsciously. She knew not where the anger came but she felt the tent was important to her.

She threw back her head and burst out in a strange laugh, her gray eyes grew darker. kill instantly felt fear but she looked at her beast and regained confidence.

''kekeke... I will cut you limb from limb~'' she said with a tone filled with flat sincerity, her hands gripped the bone knife, and in a calm eerie steps, she walked in front of the raging scorpion.

kill looked with pleasure, wanting to see Cyra chewed up body. but what happened next made kill feel horror and regret.

She watched as Cyra slashed off the beast's stinger, the beast wailed, stumbling around in pain, it tried to attack her in mad anger.

Cyra didn't dodge the attack, she held it with her bleeding hand, stopping its movement. her other hand holding on to the knife, slashing viciously at the beast, cutting it limb by limb, blood spurted bathing Cyra in it, it made her look terrify to Kill who was already mad from fear and soul-curling pain due to her beast's pain and injury. she wet herself unable to control her lower body as she watched on in horror.

The dead beast's body lay in pieces as if prepped for a meal, Cyra saw a shiny stone fall from its gapping chest and picked it up in fascination.

''Please don't destroy that. I beg you...'' kill broke out in painful sobs, snot dripping from her nose, when she saw her soul beast core in Cyra's hand.

She tried to crawl to her, she couldn't lose her beast- it was like losing her soul. She won't be whole again. she cut a pathetic form from her aggressive look from before.

Cyra looked at her apethically, she threw the crystal into her mouth and crushed it to dust, swallowing it down. ''NO...'' kill mind went blank, she screamed from the soul-tearing pain, and her mind turned stupid. She drooled and looked up with a blank stare.

Cyra walked towards her and slashed open her throat, putting her out of her misery. Cyra's eyes flickered and her eyes turned blurry, she looked at the blood-stained place and fell to the ground unconscious.

...

Zane halfway on his journey, felt restless and uneasy, his mind flashed to the strange feeling he had when he crossed the entrance and his face grew dark, his hand gripped the steering wheel in anxiety, and he turned the car around, heading back to the base.
