I used to be the same as others, crawling like insects on the ground, a beast with no thoughts and only knowing how to hunt for food and mate during seasons. Like any other, I was a fool but then it happened, I gained a mind to think. For mere Sapphire Bullet Ant, it was a big deal. Because at that time I can now leave my own colony and start my own.

    Magical beasts gain intelligence as they grow stronger however it isn''t the same when they turn into demon beasts. The corruption caused by mana would morph their brain in a way that they can no longer think properly. Demons have only an endless desire to devour, to destroy and to kill. They don''t have any thoughts about life or even pain. They simply don''t feel any of it.

    When I failed to ascent to rank Archduke my mana fireback at me until it turned me into a demonic beast. So I became the same beast I once feared when I was a magical beast. A monster that only knows how to eat and destroy.

    However, my days of being a mindless creature ended when that incident happened.

    "What''s this? What happened to me?"

    I woke up holding the corpse of someone, a human, somehow his flesh made my mind clear. Despite becoming a demon I could still think and process my own thoughts.

    "Ha..hahaha!"

    At that moment I know, I am special.

    ...

    "This cannot be! I can''t die! I am a god!"

    His voice created a force that left the floating platform dented.

    "He is indeed a monster"

    [His will is forcing the skill Disintegrate to weaken]

    Apollo observes his opponent and knows if he leaves him breathing for long it might cost him his life.

    "We should end this"

    The lights that continue to fall suddenly stop and fly towards it''s owner. As the light joined together it transformed into a spear. Light began to trace the symbols embedded in the weapon, and as the essence flowed into Apollo''s demonized body it began to morph.

    The traces of blue light from the spear expanded and spread across the demonic body of Apollo. The jet-black coat that encased the armor of the demon was soon swallowed by light. The ragged wings were replaced with black feathers like those typically seen in ravens, however unlike the normal ravens Apollo''s wings have white patterns on them.

    His clothing which is mixed with enchanted clothes and armor soon turns white with patterns of black.

    "Jeremiah put everything in maximum"

    Lightning sparked and energized his body however this magic became one with him. So no ounce of lightning came out or leaked out.

    "Thunder Aura, Holy Lance"

    It happens in just a blink of an eye the body of the almighty God of the Monastery was cut into thousands of pieces, and due to the temperature of Apollo''s body and lance the remaining pieces of Nirvana melted and turned to nothing.

    As Nirvana disappeared a spark of light flew into Apollo''s body, however, neither Apollo nor Jeremiah noticed it.

    "It''s done"

    "Yes finally our mission is finished"

    [With this I suppose you truly free your friends, no one will ever harm them]

    "Yeah I suppose you are right"

    The stars were alive, shining brilliantly among the other heavenly bodies. As Apollo looks at the beautiful sky his footing suddenly destabilizes.

    "What''s going on?"

    "Apollo I think this place can no longer sustain itself"

    [Creator this place is gonna crash down!]

    An earthquake-like force shook the floating platform and with its uneven state, and wrecked corners it could no longer remain floating at such a high altitude.

    "It''s going down Apollo"

    "Yes I know"

    The demonized boy used his wings to fly escaping the fall of the one''s great temple. The platform speeds up its descent causing its body to ignite. Like a meteor, it came crashing to the ground.

    "It may be incredible to you but the being who caused this may become a threat in the future, we must hunt down this mysterious attacker"

    Archduke Astralia said while appearing annoyed at the situation.

    "Gulp"

    The five imperial generals and some of the high-rank soldiers all felt like they should flee. The presence of the four cardinal dukes and the archduke was too overwhelming for them to handle.

    However, this oppressive atmosphere soon collapses due to a strange noise.

    "What''s that?"

    Soon they realized what it was, the sound of heels hitting the floor of the palace.

    "Now who could this guest be"

    Helios said while taking a seat at the nearby chair.

    The door of the throne room flung open revealing the figure of a little girl.

    "Lady Alicia?"

    Augustus suddenly stood from his seat surprising the present soldiers.

    "All of you, leave at once"

    The imperial soldiers looked confused but still obeyed the emperor''s orders.

    Once they left Alicia moved from where she was.

    "I hope I didn''t ruin something important"

    "Not at all my lady"

    The four dukes including the archduke move away from the throne and stand in line in front of the emperor.

    "You kids don''t really need to do this, a military greeting is not something you should do" Stay tuned for updates on m-v l|-novelhall.net

    The five strongest assets of the empire just laughed while the emperor guided Alicia to his own throne, letting her sit there.

    "May I ask what brings you here?"

    The emperor asked as soon as Alicia settled on the throne.

    "Actually it was me"

    "Pardon?"

    The six men had their eyes locked on the little girl in front of them.

    "Don''t tell me"

    The archduke muttered while trying to maintain his expression.

    "My lady you mean you were the one who.."

    "Yes the attacks at the temples were my doing, however, I didn''t come here for that reason. What I want you to do is deal with the remnant disciples and priests who are still hiding. I know you are aware of the spies the Monastery have so the entirety of the empire should start a clean up"

    "I understand however may I ask how did you find all the temples'' locations? If it''s okay may I know how?"

    Alicia contemplates what answer she should give, what Apollo told her was to make sure that his name won''t be dragged into the situation.

    "I am sorry, Your Majesty but I can''t disclose that"

    She then stood up from the throne before her body disappeared.

    As she vanished her voice left a message.

    "I''ll be staying with those kids I hope you don''t mind that"
