A CRACK appeared on the chest of the Dark Saint where Eclipse inserted the gem. There seemed to be something wanting to come out of the crack. Like a glass that was close to shattering.
And then, from that crack, streaks of black and white light started to come out. Those lights had faces on them. Just like the souls that entered his body earlier. The streaks of black light just scattered around the island while slowly dissipating in the air. While those souls inside the white light were now howling and screaming in pain.
Their screamed pain echoed amidst the burning island. Every scream was like hearing a person being tortured right in front of you. Anyone who heard it would feel heartbroken. As if their heart was being strangled by something. And just like those souls in the black light, the souls in the white light also dissipated after some time. As they did, one could hear a very soft sigh at the end. As if they were relieved that they were finally free.
As those souls kept pouring out of the Dark Saint’s body, he completely fell to the ground. His limbs stopped regenerating. If he still had them, he could probably be curled up into a ball right now because of the pain he was suffering.
After those souls disappeared, the Dark Saint’s body seemed to have become much thinner and paler. He even looked sicklier than he did when Luo Yan first saw him in that room earlier.
They thought that that would be the end of it, but suddenly cuts after cuts appeared on the other’s body. Every time a cut would appear, the Dark Saint would scream in pain. Until his whole body became bloody and his voice became hoarse from screaming.
The Dark Saint raised his head weakly and looked at the four people standing together and watching his suffering. His eyes turned red in anger. "W-why?"
Luo Yan almost laughed. Really, this bastard really had to ask that? Did this guy not even think that what he had done so far didn’t warrant this kind of punishment? "I’m too lazy to explain why. So, let’s just call it karma."
The Dark Saint looked very unwilling. But what could he do? He couldn’t move, his body had already become a waste, and his Mana was almost non-existent. He’s like a weak fish waiting at the chopping block to be killed.
Luo Yan enjoyed this scene very much. After all the other had done, something like this was probably not enough as punishment. But he was still thankful for the Libra gem for quickening the process of this bastard’s death.
The gem, by the way, was from Shirayuki. She said when she gave it to him that it was her treasure. Because it was something that she found after years and years of painstakingly looking for an item that could kill the Dark Saint.
Luo Yan had a feeling that if they did this hidden task without going to the demon fox tribe’s village, it would be very, very hard to kill the Dark Saint. They wouldn’t even go there if not for Eclipse. And Eclipse wouldn’t be part of their team if he wasn’t curious enough to take the egg from the dragon’s cave. Then, he and Shen Ji Yun later came back for the dragon and triggering this hidden task. So, everything just kind of fell into place.
He felt his hand suddenly being gripped by someone. He looked down and saw that it was Eclipse. The little boy was watching the Dark Saint’s suffering with reddened eyes while biting his lower lips. Obviously, it’s definitely not because he was sad. Luo Yan had a feeling that it was mainly because of too much anger.
He could have his revenge but it didn’t mean that it would bring back his parents. Luo Yan could only bend down a bit and put his arm around Eclipse’s shoulders to give him the support he needed. The little boy casted a thankful glance at him before returning his gaze back to the dying Dark Saint.
It didn’t take a while before the other’s body turned into small light particles. But it was not instantaneous like how it was for other monsters and NPCs. His was like a slow-burn. Starting from his severe legs, going upwards to his body and head.
"No, no, no..." the Dark Saint muttered continuously while fearfully looking down at his slowly vanishing body. Then, as if realizing that there’s no longer any hope to stop his death, he glared at the four people standing together. His eyes full of hatred and viciousness. "I curse all of you! All of you will suffer! You will pay—"
He wasn’t able to continue his hateful remarks because his mouth had already disappeared. Up until the last moment, he didn’t glance away and continued staring at them with hatred. As if hoping for their demise right at this moment.
This bastard, still an asshole until the very end. – Luo Yan thought while shaking his head.
"Mashter, we won’t really get cursed, right?" Eclipse suddenly asked beside him.
Before he could answer, Dusk had already beaten him to it. "You silly fox. Of course not. That bastard didn’t have any Mana left. There’s no way he could have cursed us."
Luo Yan glanced amusedly at the black dragon. The other looked very calm and collected. There was no joy or sadness. He wondered if Dusk was really as calm as he was portraying or if he was still thinking about what the Dark Saint said about his father. contemporary romance
Before he could delve deeper into that, a huge virtual screen suddenly appeared in the sky. It even had some confetti and fireworks effect around it.
[Congratulations to YUN and Noctis for defeating the Dark Saint! Your achievement will be eternally remembered!]
Luo Yan was curious and also a bit confused. Just what was that?
As if knowing what he was thinking, Shen Ji Yun responded, "That’s a site-wide announcement. Everyone currently logged in the game right now could see that."
