The Goddess's body shuddered as it remembered the scene where Alex went rampage.
At least they were present there to suppress him but now who will be able to suppress him?
Goddess Of War gritted her teeth in anger as she remembered the humiliation she suffered that day.
Goddess Rebecca tilted her head and muttered, "If things go out of hand, we can only rely on our daughters to calm him down."
"Maybe that will be enough to take him down for now." She muttered as she looked down with a solemn expression.
.......
Unaware of the current situation which was enough to make the Goddess worry.
Alex took a deep heavy breath as he felt the demonic energy surging all around him.
The entire atmosphere turned crimson as immense killing intent erupted from Alex's body.
The people in the Fortress were horrified as they felt like a huge suffocating pressure pinning them down.
The children who had already been woken up from hypnosis started to cry when they felt the unknown energy.
The atmosphere froze and chilling gales blew all around.
Alex's pitch dark eyes filled with darkness looked down at the Pseudo Epic mage lying down.
Raising his hand, he shouted, "Devour!!"
A bright red bloody hand emerged from Alex's body and touched the mage's head.
The mage's body started to rot and life energies started to fly out and sucked into Alex.
Alex raised both his hand and the life essence from all the people he had killed started to suck into him leaving behind a pile of rotten thin corpses.
Leo who had signed an equal contract with Alex felt his strength becoming stronger.
Roar!!!
Leo roared furiously and its body started to grow and its fur became thicker.
Two small horns started to grow from his forehead and his eyes turned red and he was covered with a bloody aura.
Alex lifted the mage staff and decided to open the status window.

[Note:The numbers in the bracket are a temporary power-up. Since Alex used demonic power, he will neither level up nor get experience points or start even though he kills.
The Stay points are zero because Alex had already used the stat points.]
.....
The system had already been surprised by the huge amount of demonic energy surging into Alex.
[Host, the Devour is a forbidden spell that uses other life forces to increase one strength temporarily so was it okay to use it now.]
[Host, your rank may decrease once the effect has gone off. Moreover, the holy energy you have is already started to create havoc by fighting with demonic energy]
"Don't worry about it. I can suppress the pain." Alex spoke with a hoarse voice and his hair started to flutter.
Veins started to bulge in Alex's body and he felt a deep throbbing pain all over his body.
Gritting his teeth, he tried to suppress the Holy energy and let the demonic power to assimilate into his body.
"Catherine..."
"I can't waste any more time. I fear if I waste even one second from now, Catherine may disappear from this world."
Alex's eyes glowed furiously and lightning started to flicker in the sky as if it was beating the drum of war.
"It's time for a massacre," Alex spoke with a chilling tone while his eyes flashed in coldness.
.......
In The Capital Of Kinley
A man with golden hair stood near the window and watched the scenery of the night before him.
Faint rays of the moonlit glistened over him making his golden hair dazzle like gold.
His face was as smooth as jade and the passage of time didn't have any effect on him.
He felt a chilling breeze blowing outside and looked up to see the beautiful full moon glowing in the sky.
The atmosphere felt quite pleasant and surreal but somehow he had an uneasy feeling.
With his arms folded behind his back, he raised his brows as he heard a loud knock on the door.
"Come in."
A man walked up towards the window and bowed down before the man standing at the window.
"Glory To The Empire Of Kinley."
"Glory To The Emperor."
"Your Highness, this humble servant had brought some important news."
The Emperor nodded and asked him to carry on without looking back. His face was indifferent even though the man who entered was the strongest man beside him and was General of Empire Kinley.
"Young Lord is on the move."
The Emperor's expression stiffened and he looked at the general and raised his brows with a questioning gaze.
The general nodded his head while explaining everything and The Emperor pondered for a moment with a serious expression.
"Deploy the Knights."
"No matter what the outcome is, don't let him die."
"First wait for the outcome of the battle and if the situation becomes worse then only make a move."
"And if he loses. Go and rescue Catherine."
"Don't let her rot in the prison..."
The Emperor of Kinley suddenly looked at General and his eyes were flashing with killing intent as he thought about"Wipe out Amidon."
"We need to dig out those forces who are targeting us by hiding in the shadows."
The general nodded and stood up and walked beside the Emperor.
Although he was a general in his official duties, he was also a close friend of the Emperor and knew him from his younger days.
"Your Highness, I doubt in my heart."
"Were you unable to hold on anymore and undo the curse early?" He asked with a grim expression.
"No, I didn't." The Emperor refuted quickly.
"Then how did the Young Lord become normal? The curse should have lasted until he reached 21 years old."
"But he was freed from it quite early."
The Emperor sighed on hearing his words and said"I don't know about it."
"I don't even know whether it was a good or bad thing."
"The pillars which should act as a support are still not ready and the roof has already been laid."
"Our plan had been put forward. Those who let their guard down have been alerted quicker than expected."
"We are short of time in our hands. We can only work in the shadows for now." The Emperor explained.
The general nodded and took his leave.
After the general left, The Emperor kept on looking at the moon while remembering his past.
His lips curled upwards forming a faint smile and he spoke while looking up.
"He is doing well. I am sure one day he will make us proud."
"I know you are watching from there. Please keep an eye on him until he can walk on his own feet."
