Chapter 103 The Soul of Conquest
Ch.103 The Soul of Conquest
As soon as the enthralled Eonixians caught sight of what was clearly the Horseman of Conquest, their minds which were already in a fragile state, fractured beyond redemption. Losing all hope of returning to what they used to be.
When the creature saw them, it squealed and clicked excitedly before extending its many tentacles in their direction like a baby that had seen its parents carrying food. The enthralled Eonixians saw this and their faces became dopey with silly smiles, rushing to the creature with even greater fervour than before and almost fighting to pick it up.
The first one to pick it up was a purple-skinned girl (who must have had red and blue parents) with long black hair, a curvaceous figure and the same singular pink eye with a white heart-shaped pupil that the others around her had. By Eonixian standards, she was a great beauty.
The girl held the squealing creature to her face and... got a chunk of it bitten right off.
“Hahaha~, it’s so cuuute~” the girl said as she looked at the other citizens around her with a gloating look on her face, proud that she had been the first one to pick up the ‘great one’ and feed it with her flesh.
!!!
This girl had just had a chunk her cheek bitten off and was smiling with pride...
What’s more was that the other citizens around her had clear looks of jealousy, almost seething with rage that they were not in her position. In fact, the only reason that they hadn’t jumped her already was because of the fact that they would rather kill themselves than disturb the ‘great ones’ meal.
Utter madness.
But the Horseman of Conquest didn’t seem to think so, in fact, all the mouths patterned over its body seemed to be grinning as they voraciously tore chunks of flesh from the smiling Eonixian that only had adoration in her eyes. It was very much obvious that whether or not the girl was healthy before she was enthralled, she was now very much retarded. But was she so far gone that she did not feel a single bit of pain?
Could it be that the result of it consuming a female as its first meal, had set the previously unidentified gender of the creature?
It was indeed a possibility, but the Creature didn’t seem to be affected and was only excitedly extending its many tentacles that sparked with faint lightning, in all directions, tearing chunks of flesh from everyone around it and gobbling it all down.
One might even say that the strange wiggling it was doing was... a happy dance!
...
The entire series of events was witnessed by Eridel and nothing had escaped his attention. He had managed to reconfigure the Runes within the Magic Shield, preventing it from alerting anyone of Conquest’s arrival and... preventing anyone from leaving, he had also made sure Conquest would arrive in the most optimal location that would give it the best chances of overall success, and he had even disabled all the technology within the city, preventing anyone from recording or calling for help.
By the time that it had eaten all of the citizens within the city, it would have a full fledged Soul and all the memories of those that it had devoured, and his inheritance. With this knowledge, it should be able to take care of itself, and avoid situations that would drag the attention of the entire World until it was ready.
Nothing had escaped Eridel’s calculations. The only thing that remained unpredictable was the final showdown between Conquest and those 30 or so Realm 5 Beings.
But Eridel was sure that when Conquest began using its Laws of Corruption to convert the Eonixians into otherworldly mutated beings that could cultivate, and consequently promoting the World into a Mid World, it would have achieved its final step as just a Creature of Conquest, and take the next step as the true Horseman of Conquest. The god of Conquest. Or rather...
The Evil god of Conquest.
By that time, what was a mere 5th Realm Being?
