Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality



Terrified of the implication that he was the reason that his family was suffering.

He had been selfish when he left them. When he left, he said that he was doing it for their safety... But that wasn't the case either.

He did it for himself. He could see it now.

He wanted to become stronger. He wanted to explore the world, something he couldn't have done if he had stayed within Uladia.

Greed could hear Silas' teeth clatter against one another as he clenched them and shook with repressed emotions, waiting to erupt out of his body at any second.

"Silas... I can change this. If you let me do this... I can change everything." Greed wrapped her arms around Silas as if he was trying to comfort him, while whispering in his heart like a devil trying to make the human eat the apple.

"I can bring your family back. Together, we can control the entirety of the kingdom and more! Together, we can become unstoppable beings capable of destroying everything in our paths!" She hugged Silas harder as her warmth seeped into Silas' body, making him feel a tiny bit of comfort in the infinite darkness he had been thrown in.

Life cried for Silas to see reason, however, he wasn't hearing it.

He wasn't hearing anyone except the woman cradling him like a child.

'How long has it been since I've felt the embrace of a mother?' Silas asked himself, his eyes now as cloudy as his mind.

"Together, we can destroy these nobles and higher families who have hurt us. They don't deserve to live after what they've done for us, don't you agree?" 

"What about the people about this city?" Silas tried to argue, yet his voice was groggy.

"This city? A needed sacrifice, that's what it is. Isn't that what you were thinking when you let half of Uladia be destroyed by Aleck?" She asked.

"..."

"Now... If you are with me... Do me a favor

And kill these bastards who keep eyeing us like we're the villains." Greed pointed at Life, but behind her were both Death and Eclipse.

Death held his sword with the blade pointing at the ground. At the same time, Eclipse held two daggers in his hands and had a worried expression on his face.

"Silas! Move away from her!" Death shouted, yet his voice didn't reach Silas' ears.

"Don't use it... You'll kill him." Eclipse whispered over to Death, yet it didn't seem like he was listening anymore either.

"Silas! Move away from her!" Death shouted again with a little more desperation in his voice.

He didn't want to use his trump card in this battle, especially not after what happened the last time he did, but if Silas was going to join Greed, he didn't know what choice he would have.

Greed alone was extremely strong with her armor, and now with her strength boost.

The way he currently was, he doubted he could beat her, and even though it might not seem like it, he was the strongest out of the three generals around.

Eclipse and Life weren't fighters after all... But after seeing Greed fight, something had become obvious to all of them...

The two generals weren't fighters, but she was.

"Kill them now!" Greed roared and Silas grabbed both of his axes and shot forward.

Rage burned within his eyes while a bloody aura erupted out of his body.

The air suddenly became extremely dense.

Eclipse and Death had no problem breathing since one was a veteran used to these things, and the other was used to Death to a certain extent.

However, it also seemed like his toki was redirecting the killing intent in other directions, causing it to not hit him directly.

Life, on the other hand, was a completely different case.

She was not a fighter, and so, when she felt the killing intent, she could feel her knees weakening while her breathing became heavy as she struggled to get a proper breath in.

Her heart beat quickly and loudly, yet, the reason for that was not the killing intent itself.

It was what followed the killing intent that made her feel real fear.

Just like most people who have felt the might of Silas' killing intent, she saw corpses.

Hundreds of corpses, all of them seemingly begging for help in a language she could not understand.

They all reached toward her, yet she backed away.

However, when she looked up to look at Silas who was currently charging at them, she didn't see him anymore.

Or at least, not the person she was used to seeing.

Instead, she saw Silas with no emotion, covered from head to toe with blood.

His white hair was stained with so much blood that it had become crimson red, while his usually beautiful emerald eyes shone with traces of red that seeped into her very being...

And behind him, was something even more terrifying.

A creature made out of darkness, peaking out of every single shadow in the city, staring toward her and grinning at her as arms reached out of the shadow and tried to reach for him.

Yet, in an instant, it all disappeared, and so did Silas' momentum.

In an instant, he had stopped moving, landing on the ground and sliding a few meters before eventually taking in a deep breath.

"What are you doing?! Kill them!" Greed shouted, but all Silas did was look back at her with a slightly annoyed stare while raising his hand into the air.

"I don't take orders from you."

*Snap*

Suddenly, the central district of the city began to glow with an emerald-green healing radiance.

"Though... I must thank you." Silas smirked slightly while all the generals looked at him with slight shock.

"You're very easy to stall."
