Chapter 242 - A monster? A king? What is he? (1/2)
”Now, why don't I go and get Serena out of here?” John asked as he looked at the room they had just had their fight inside.
His eyes slowly lost their bright yellow glow before going back to being simply clouded in darkness.
As this happened, John shadow stepped the front of the room which had been broken before looking over at his arms.
They were shaking, not due to fear but because of what he had done.
It was different from the feeling of killing someone, John naturally became able to kill people as he knew that the concept of souls and reincarnation existed. They would either go to a better place in heaven, or suffer in hell.
On top of that, Possession clouded his emotions making him more numb to events whenever he was in it. Which is why he would always use it when he steeled himself to commit the act of killing someone.
But now, his emotions weren't numb as he was in a mixture of the possession state and another state which he didn't know.
The other state would make his eyes glow whenever he used it and would strengthen his emotions and mental fortitude in a way, cancelling out possession's passive ability to numb one's emotions.
John first noticed his eyes glow 3 days ago, when he was searching for Serena. He ended up properly using the theory of Newton's law to stop a monster's movements.
It worked, just like he had expected, and could stay active for as long as his magic power lasted.
”Stop shaking...” John muttered as he grabbed onto his right hand with his left.
As he did so, he entered the room through the hole on the wall and looked inside, at first nothing could be seen, but as he clapped his hands
Light suddenly came out from the room and Crystal with Serena submerged in it, could be seen.
Seeing this a small smile was formed on John's face as he was about to walk inside, when all of the sudden he heard someone speak
”Y-y-you... You what did you do to him...?”
The scientist asked that as he looked over to the end of the hall, there laid the young boy who he could only ever remembered as an unstoppable and beatable force.
Yet there he laid, helplessly and motionlessly on the ground with his eyes closed.
Seeing as how the scientist had woken up, John slowly made his way towards him.
The scientist who noticed John could feel his legs trembling in fear, he slammed his hands on his legs before quickly getting up
As he started to run through the hall in the direction where the boy laid, John stretched out his arm towards him as he muttered
”Stop.”
However, instead, John only felt a throb in his head as his consciousness began to fade.
For a moment he hung his head as he placed palm on his face before looking up only to find the man still running.
