Chapter 6 - Return to Ashes

1084 Words
"Oh? I can keep the Battle Soul of someone who has been killed by me?" William was slightly surprised when he heard the sound of the system, he never expected that the system had a feature that could store the Battle Soul of someone he had killed. William subconsciously glanced at the silent Lucas with a surprised expression on his face. "System, I agree!" William said in his heart as he slowly walked towards the body which had been unconscious the first time it was struck by Billy's fist attack. "Ding! Son of Fire Battle Soul has been saved in the system storage, the host can try to check it. Would you like to check it out?" "Not!" William quickly rejected him, it was because his current situation still didn't allow him to relax. Then when William arrived near Gaston's body, he used his Marionette Battle Soul ability to control Gaston's body. Since Gaston's body was already unconscious, William was able to quickly control the body without having to wait 10 seconds. Then a scene that was the same as Billy started to repeat itself, Gaston's body which should have been unable to move due to fainting suddenly started to raise both hands to hold his own neck. Cracks! Then Lucas and William heard a crisp sound coming from Gaston's body, it seemed that he had just committed suicide by crushing his own collarbone. "Ding! Congratulations to the host on getting 100 evolution coins for successfully killing a Tier 9 Spirit Warrior!" "Ding! Congratulations to the host on getting the Recovery Battle Soul!" "Ding! No empty slots in storage space! The system automatically recycles it into 200 evolution coins!" William successively heard a systematic sound in his brain. Overcome with curiosity, William began to ask about the feature. "System, can I open an empty slot in the storage space?" Then a systematic voice devoid of emotion began to sound again in his brain. "Ding! There are not enough evolution coins to open an empty slot, the host needs 1000 evolution coins to open an empty slot!" Upon hearing that, William subconsciously glanced at the several unconscious bodies in this room. "If one body count is 300 evolution coins, then after this incident I can open an empty slot in the Battle Soul storage." At this time, William slightly glanced at Lucas who was trying to escape secretly. With a look of indifference in his eyes, William opened his mouth and said, "Do you really want to run away from here? Don't you know the serious consequences of allowing the Lux Family's main bloodline to be killed by someone?" When those words rang in Lucas ears, his body involuntarily stiffened and couldn't move. He struggled to open and close his mouth as if he was unsure of what to say. "Having a strong influence like the Lux Family is indeed the best thing to control one's psychology." William immediately smiled in his heart when he saw that his psychological attack had managed to influence the actions of Lucas who wanted to run away. William didn't even stop his psychological attacks just like that, he slowly walked over to Lucas and said, "Can you imagine what kind of fate you will get when you report me to the Lux Family Elder? There is only one option, which is a tragic death for someone like you who has left the main family lineage to be killed by someone else!" Just as William finished saying that, he saw Lucas body begin to tremble like a frightened person. William knew how terrifying it was to imagine ourselves dying while still having a bright future. No matter who it was, they would never want to receive such an outcome. "If the situation is going to turn out that way, then what should I do now?!?! Wasn't it all your fault originally for killing Ethan?!" Lucas returned to his human form and screamed hysterically, he looked hatefully as if all of this happened because of William's fault. Even though Lucas was filled with anger and hatred, his body still had high vigilance towards William who was approaching. When William saw that his strategy was not working, he subconsciously sighed and said, "What do you have to be afraid of? As long as we pretend this never happened, there's no way they'll see the two of us for a few months." "During that time, wouldn't the two of us be able to escape without any problems? What do you think if we work together and consider all the actions here never happened?" After hearing the suggestion, William could see a stunned expression on Lucas face. The man looked like he couldn't believe what he just said. When William saw that expression, he knew that what he had been waiting for had arrived. At this moment, a shadowy figure of a man holding a red book began to appear behind William's body. The shadowy figure of the man wearing a red robe with his book patterned in fiery flames, just looking at it made one want to fall to one's knees from the pressure. When the familiar Shadow Battle Soul figure appeared, Lucas subconsciously pointed his finger at William. "You… How could you do that!" William didn't answer the question at all and just flicked his finger at Lucas, William felt his soul energy directly flow into the Son of Fire Battle Soul. "Return to ashes!" Burn! William was currently looking at Lucas who had various expressions such as horror, shock, confusion, and despair. It was the last expression he had before his body was devoured by the flames. "Ding! Congratulations to the host on getting 100 evolution coins for successfully killing a Tier 9 Spirit Warrior!" "Ding! Congratulations to the host on getting the White Tiger Transformation Battle Soul!" "Ding! No empty slots in storage space! The system automatically recycles it into 200 evolution coins!" William successively heard a systematic sound in his brain. "Only a fool like you still believes what other people say, moreover that person is your enemy!" William looked at Lucas body which had been scorched by the Son of Fire Battle Soul's attack. If William had not psychologically affected Lucas first, perhaps by now the man had fled to report to the Lux Family Elder about what had happened in this room. At least William wasn't sure whether Lucas White Tiger Transformation Battle Soul ability could evade the Son of Fire Battle Soul's instant burning ability.
