Chapter 115 - The Secret That's Hidden Within Part 1



* Alan Walker, K-391 & Emelie Hollow - Lily *

\'Wraith...\' Red Joe tried to mutter but under this amount of pressure, he could he only watch in horror as his grim reaper got closer and closer to him with each breath he took.

Rachel\'s father felt his body shaking even though no killing intent got past the barrier Raven created around him. Just the look on her face was enough to send chills down his spine.

Suddenly, a crimson haired figure appeared next to Raven and put his hand on her armoured shoulder. "Raven..." he called quietly.

"I know, Tu..." Raven muttered, taking a deep breath. With a sigh, she let go of her armour and sword as they turned into mana and then dispersed into thin air.

The room started to get back to its normal state the moment her shadow descended back to its original place on the ground.

*Deep breaths*

\'Deep breaths, keep calm...\'

Raven found it rather hard to calm herself down as she deeply despised those who abuse or oppress others who are weaker than them.

\'But that is not all...\' she thought to herself, \'something is not right within me...\'

Deep within, she knew that a hidden part of her was trying to reawaken. And that part longed for warm blood.

Shaking her head, she looked at Red Joe who was breathing heavily. Settings on one of the nearby chairs, she waited for him to calm down as well before speaking.

"Haven\'t I told you to stop abusing your position and powers?" Raven said after a pause. "You have money, you have a legitimate business, and you have the ability to help people, yet all you want is more money, even if it costs others their lives?

"Haven\'t I saved your daughter for you? Do you not remember the dread you felt when you realized she was kidnapped?" Raven was feeling her temper rising up again.

"The only reason I haven\'t killed you already was because I thought you\'d start a new path. You have the ability to be a f*cking hero, yet all you care about is more f*cking money that will end up being spent on your funeral?" Raven yelled as mana erupted out of her body for an instant, forcing Red Joe to his knees.

Another shoulder pat from Tu was enough to calm her down again.

"This is your last chance, take your men and leave," Raven said while gritting her teeth. "I want you to be the f*cking hero you can be, am I making myself clear here?

"No bullying people. No robbing sh*t. No illegal operations. I want you to spread the word, tell everyone that you\'re changing your ways because you work for Wraith now, do you understand?"

Forcing himself up after some difficulties, Red Joe nodded silently.

"Good. Because if you don\'t, I will find you, and I will f*cking end you along with anything and everything that has ever been dear to your heart. Now take your men and scram!" she ordered as he started fidgeting with his phone in fright.

Raven understood that he needed the help of whoever was left in his car to move the unconscious men, so she let him be.

Existing the room, Raven kept walking down the hallway until she put some good distance between her and the office.

Rachel\'s father was flabbergasted, impressed, and afraid to be able to look Raven in the eyes or even thank her, so he chose not to go after her.

Sitting on the ground with her back to the wall, a tried and disappointed expression painted Raven\'s face.

"What\'s wrong?" Tu muttered. "You seem fatigued, and I\'m afraid it\'s not because you have exerted a little bit of your mana. That much wouldn\'t have affected you.

"It is not, no," she shook her head slowly. "I feel weird... it\'s like I- ugh *sigh*" she didn\'t know how to exactly express the feelings she was having.

"It\'s ok," Tu reassured. "I think I understand what\'s going on. If my hunch is correct, then your Soul Weaver nature is slowly awakening. You\'re feeling what you\'re feeling because you\'re hungry, not because you want to kill."

Looking at him with her hazy eyes, Raven was happy that he understood the urge she was feeling. Yet, she wasn\'t satisfied with his answers.

"Hungry?" she asked and Tu nodded. "I\'m assuming you mean hungry for souls?" she muttered as she opened her palm slowly.

A small glowing ball of purple energy materialised in her hand. Tu couldn\'t help but widen his eyes in surprise.

He knew exactly what that was. \'A compressed soul?\' he thought to himself in disbelief. For all he knew, Raven should not have access to something like this.

Having a compressed soul in her inventory, wherever or whatever that was, implied that she had killed some living beings and saved their souls intentionally. That was not supposed to be the case for way too many reasons.

Giving him a quick glance, Raven opened her mouth and swallowed the ball quietly. "Meh, not so tasty..." she said as she hugged her knees.

"So you\'re not as clueless as you pretend to be..." Tu muttered in realization.

"I guess so..." she said while looking him in the eyes for a bit before looking down again.

"Do you want to share what happened, and how did you get this far?" Tu asked as he was concerned.

"There\'s not much to it. I\'ve been exposed to the notion of devouring souls for a few times now. The first was when I tried to use a cursed weapon of sorts in the first portal incident.

"The weapon, I think it was a scythe... anyway, the thing was filled to the brim with souls that tried to corrupt mine. At the time I lost consciousness, but after I woke up I became aware of the fact that I have destroyed, or rather, devoured a lot of souls.

"I tried to dismiss it as a false memory and all, but then after a while, when I performed my first demon summoning, I realized that souls do indeed exist and one can gain powers if they devour them.

"I don\'t know when, but some time after, I started suffering from these urges to devour souls. You know, I even have a special skill for that." she chuckled sadly.

She was referring to the tier 4 skill that was called \'Soul Hunter\'. A skill with the sole purpose of hunting down souls in order for her to devour them mercilessly.
