“F*ck,” Will muttered. Seeing the huge troll move, he felt as if Earth had slipped from his feet.

“How can it still move? Didn’t I blast its eye and then its brain?” Lost in his thoughts, Will fell into unimaginable darkness as he couldn’t understand a thing that was going on.

His consciousness slowly faded as he fell to the ground in exhaustion. The others looked as they saw the second strongest among them fall all of a sudden.

“Sh*t,” Katrina murmured as she gathered the water around her and formed an ice shield using it.

The troll came forward and smashed the shield as Katrina flew backwards in the air due to the force. Not knowing why they were losing all of a sudden, everyone tried to put up their defenses and tried to save themselves.

“Ughhh!” pushing the rubble aside. Josh groaned in pain, he touched his head and saw blood pouring out of his head.

“F*cking a*shole,” he cursed in anger, “I will show you my full strength and shove this dagger up your a*s,” He stood up and walked out of the rubble.

Pulling the same vial of blood out of his spatial storage, he opened the cork and poured two more drops into his mouth. As the blood dripped down his throat and spread through his body, a reddish light glowed.

The blood fused within his body, giving him the characteristics of a Wyvern. His body strengthened further as the vague shimmering scales on his body turned darker as a reddish glint shone in his eyes.

His face scrunched up a bit as the aggressive nature of a Wyvern affected his mind.

“Rrrggghhhh,” He roared at the top of his lungs and jumped out in the air. His back wriggled as his shirt was ripped and two membranous wings popped out from his back.

Spreading his wings, Josh further roared in anger as he flew higher and looked down at the troll. His claws further extended as a glimmer shone in them.

[Poison Breath],

He opened his mouth as a cloud of poisonous gas was released from his mouth.

“Hurrghhh,” The Poison Breath reached the troll as it corroded the troll’s thick skin. The troll roared in pain as blisters formed over its skin.

Seeing this, Josh grinned evilly and angled downwards. He flew down like a comet as he put his dagger in front of him. The dagger gleamed with a silver light as Josh pierced it through the troll’s other eyes.

With the dagger stuck in its eye, Josh took a sledgehammer out of his spatial storage. Clenching the sledgehammer, its handle cracked as Josh swung it down and nailed the dagger further inside the troll’s brain.

“Banggg!” while the dagger pierced deeper, the sledgehammer broke as various splinters flew in the air.

“Hurrghhh,” The troll roared in pain once again. It held its head and stumbled backwards.

“Let’s see how much you could hold it in,” Josh muttered and flew further in the air. His paws extended even further as reddish energy glimmered in them.

Right now, Josh had poured all the essence into his claws as he strengthened them further and readied for his one last attack.𝓷𝔬𝑣𝖊𝗅𝒏𝔢xt.𝒸𝑜𝐌

​ “Hehe,” he giggled evilly. Flapping his wings again, he flew straight at the troll and wiped his claws at it. An X was formed as the reddish arc went forward and cut open its skin. From the opening created by the attack, Josh saw the faint shadow of the troll’s beating heart.

He sped further and put his claws in front as he pierced the troll’s heart.

“Spurttt,” Blood spurt as Josh finally killed the troll. With his body covered in blood, he smiled like a demon and licked the blood off his hands.

“Bammm,” The troll fell to the ground as a cloud of dust rose in the air. Josh stood at its chest as he grabbed the dagger with a backhand grip and pierced the chest open.

As he skinned the chest open, he saw the heart still beating slightly while the wounds on it were still regenerating.

“What the hell is happening?” He murmured in astonishment as he understood one thing. If the troll was left to be, he knew for sure that it would come back to life not long later.

“Squelchh,” The dagger pierced the heart as Josh pulled the heart out of the troll’s chest. With the heart out of its chest, the troll finally died.

The heart was as big as his arm while Josh grinned and then opened his mouth. With the effects of Wyvern’s blood still active, Josh bit down at the heart and ripped out from it.

“Josh?” Katrina came forward and asked. Her eyes trembled in fear as Josh looked no less than a beast as he chewed on the heart.

“Ohh… Katrina…munch… Just having a small snack… munch… It’s nutritious…munch,” He spoke while munching on the heart.

Katrina gulped as she nodded, not knowing what to say as she was really confused over Josh’s unethical behavior. It really worried her to see Josh act so weirdly. However, she let him be and walked back.

On the other hand, Will finally regained consciousness. Upon seeing the troll on the ground with blood everywhere, he sighed in relief.

“Thankfully, it died,” he thought to himself and stood up shakily. His body trembled due to weakness as he walked towards the troll in a bid to find some useful items.

Reaching the troll, he saw Josh munching on a heart with blood all over him. Although he felt disgusted by it, he knew of Josh and let him be. Instead, he walked to the troll as he noticed a small item glimmering around its hand.

Walking to its hand, Will saw a small reddish-brown bead glimmering lightly as a vague fog formed within it. Inside the fog were countless faces as they screamed in pain.

As his eyes locked onto the pearl, he fell into a trance. He felt as if the world revolved around the pearl while something in his mind told him to go on and pick the pearl.

His body moved unconsciously as his hand reached out for the pearl, “I want this,” He kept on murmuring as his fingers touched the shiny gleaming surface of the pearl.

Feeling the cold surface of the pearl, Will felt a refreshing feeling wash over him as his tiredness was relieved and he felt as if all the wounds and problems he had up till now were gone.

However, unbeknownst to Will, a small figure formed inside his consciousness. The figure was nothing more than a twisted face with fangs and dark piercing eyes that looked as manovelent as they could be.

“That’s a nice something,” Will muttered as he pocketed the pearl and smiled in satisfaction. Although he didn’t know what it was, he knew for sure that it was something important and if he left the chance now, it would be a big issue for him.

His body blurred as he appeared besides Josh. Seeing the man munching off the remains of the troll’s heart. An indiscernible feeling rose in his heart as he felt like pushing the man away and digging his teeth into the remains.

“Nope!” He told himself and restrained his desire. Then, putting his hand on Josh’s shoulder, he smiled and spoke,

“That’s enough dude. You have reaped enough from it, let’s go and find someplace safe. I am sure that you want to assimilate its essence as well,” As Will spoke, a dark smile was formed on his face.

His eyes twinkled as a mysterious air formed around him. Within minutes, Will had changed greatly and not only that but even he himself felt more confident while his power had also increased by a whole tier.

Right now, Will had entered the pseudo-Magical Realm and what stopped him from advancing further was his lacking knowledge over the subject of gravity and the lack of accumulated energy.

“Ohh… You are awake..munch…I am almost done,” Said Josh and finished the last piece. Then, taking a cloth out of his spatial storage, he wiped the blood off his face and turned around to face Will.

As he did, he noticed the change in Will’s demeanor. However, he said nothing and felt that it might be due to the hardships he faced recently that had led to him changing to this extent.

Both of them nodded as they led the team out. Unbeknownst to them, a seed was sowed as it would bring countless problems to not only the ones present now but also those that they would meet in the future, and in the middle of all this, would be Ray and Will who would look to see the further of a never-ending paradox.
