367 Chapter 367: Shocking truth 2 (2/2)
Waving his hands, more green chains erupted from beneath, latching onto the angel of death binding it to the ground once again, and forcing it to go on its knees.
”As a reward for being so cooperative earlier and listening to my nonsense speculations, I will make your death quick and painless… and I will let your wisp of consciousness return to the guardian spirit of death. I promise I will not consume you like the others!”
Derik chose to remain in his little human form, not carrying about the size of the shadow lurker and the angel of death. He slowly descended on one of the large green chains and upon making contact, a powerful wave of chilly green flames erupted from all the chains and quickly consumed the angel of death.
Even though the shadow lurker was binding the victim, it wasn't suffering from the flames Derik had released. There were no screams or cries of pain, no anger or hate, the angel of death just knelt there gazing at Derik as he slowly burnt away.
”I will have to thank you then for your kindness…”

Even though Derik's words sounded nonsensical, he could sense some sort of truth behind it, preventing him from completely shoving this memory to the back of his mind.
The guardian spirit of death was left to ponder on the possibilities of this while taking it into account that even normal humans, leaving normal lives will find it nonsensical if someone should wake up one day and tell them that the guardian spirits and old gods exist. The same may be for him since this being Derik had spoken of may be at a high realm.
Unknown to these two, Derik's actions and words that day had reached the darkest and farthest part of this universe, awakening something that has been asleep for a long while now.
”Someone Just thought about me” It said.
