Chapter 98: Mind Demon
” ABSORB ”
A vast amount of energy flew out of the dead bodies of all the Human Faced Demons and began to flow inside Jayden’s body.
” Haa, this feeling… it’s euphoric. ” he mutters, as all of his Internal Energy was recovered.
‘ If not for that damn bottleneck, I would have already broken through a stage or two, after absorbing so much energy. ‘ Jayden thought, as he balanced his swinging body.
He sighed then looked around, ‘ Fuck, there are still over two hundred thousand of them left, although I’ve recovered my internal energy, my mental and soul strength both are exhausted. And soon Andrea will return back to normal and my domain will end after some time too, plus there is still the King of those Insect Demon left to deal with. ‘
” Jayden you did it!!! ” Anna spoke in an excited tone, ” Maybe you should flee while all these insects are distracted. ”
‘ Yeah, I was thinking the same. ‘ Jayden replied and in the next instant his body turned into a black ray of light, Using Infernal Steps, he ran deeper into the forest.
*BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ*
The King of the Insects was enraged, Seeing so many of his kind being slaughtered like that, he swore to kill Jayden no matter the cost. Ordering so, he and his subordinates began to follow Jayden into the forest.
This time the insects weren’t able to catch up to him, and within a dozen seconds Jayden was about to cross out of the white bamboo territory.
Jayden was well aware that all the remaining Sucking Demons were following him, but he didn’t want to fight them head on, so he decided to use them to strike against whatever danger lays ahead.
After passing through the white bamboo territory, Jayden found himself surrounded by red bamboo. He slowed down his pace a little and observed his surroundings carefully.
And oddly enough, Jayden couldn’t feel anything, and that made these bamboos even more dangerous than the previous ones.
‘ Anna, got any ideas about these? ‘ Jayden asked, as he slowed down even further.
” I can’t tell anything yet, there’s no energy fluctuations or anything that could- ” Anna began to answer, but she was interrupted by the loud buzzing sound of the King of Sucking Demons, that was still following Jayden.
‘ Fuck, what a persistent asshole. ‘ Jayden cursed and ran into the red bamboos.
*Bang*
While passing Jayden stuck the first bamboo, breaking it in half, but there was nothing strange inside of it. Jayden shrugged and increased his pace once again, adamant about reaching the centre of the forest.
In the next second, his steps came to a halt, his heart shook as he heard a weirdly familiar voice from behind.
” J-Jayden help me, please, they-they’re going to kill me *sob* Help. ”
Jayden took in a deep breath and tried not to turn back, he had a feeling that if he looked back, Something really bad would happen. Despite hearing Sasha’s cries, Jayden began to move forward.
” Noooo, Stooop it’s m-me, Sasha, please darling don’t leave me behind.*CHOKE* cough cough ” Jayden closed his eyes and kept moving forward.
” Yoouuuuuuuuuu, Heeeeeelp me darlinggggg, Kill-$@#₹#@ DON’T GOOOOO. ” The voice began to distort, and Jayden felt his head spinning. He had the urge to turn back and save his beloved wife, Sasha.
Jayden’s mental energy was already almost exhausted, so the strange voice was having a greater effect on him than it should have.
” AHHHHHHHHHHH, LOOOK BACK, I’M WAITINGGG FOR YOUUUUU. I, SASHA, WILL DIE IF YOU-AHHHHHHHHHHH TURN-TURN-TURN, LOOOK BACK. ” The voice grew louder and louder with each passing second.
*CRIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK*
Jayden felt a strong tug on his hand, as if something was pulling him back, and the next moment he heard a loud cry coming from behind. Jayden recognised the voice immediately, ‘ It’s the king of those insects. ‘ he thought and felt a tinge of fear.
Jayden brought his hand closer to his face, before biting his own palm, blood splurted out and he felt some pain in his palm. The pain helped him clear his mind a little and Jayden discovered that the fear didn’t actually belong to him, but it was placed in his mind by the strange creature.
With his mind a little more clear, Jayden began to run at full speed, not paying any attention to the surroundings. As he ran, black shadows began to appear on either side of his path.
They glared at him as if he had murdered their families, Ignoring everything Jayden kept running. But just after a minute, he noticed that something was wrong, no matter how much he ran he kept coming back near the broken tree.
Jayden again halted his movement and began to inspect his surroundings.
” BROTHER SAVE ME, THIS FAT EVIL MAN *SOB* KILLED MY FATHER. BROTHERRRRRR, HELP-HELP *SOB* ” Jayden heard Emma’s voice from behind, he knew everything was fake, a trap, but his body began to turn instinctively, with each passing second in this strange environment his mental strength was decreasing and so he finally couldn’t fought off the urge to turn back.
Just as he looked back, a creature standing on its hind legs, with a height of over 16 feet covered completely in a layer of thick black blood, stared Jayden in the eye.
It had no face, just a big hole for a mouth, more than ten eyes and two antennas like horns, standing tall over its head. Its six pointy arms looked menacing, and the skin at its stomach looked like a big brain, extremely disgusting.
” In the name of Jesus, I command thou to die. ” Jayden spoke, trying to calm both his mind and body, and secretly hoping that the chant would work.
The creature stood still, observing Jayden’s every movement and action, but Jayden knew that it was the calm before the storm.
*Step* *Step*
Slowly and steadily, Jayden began to move backwards, trying his best not to let the brain like creature notice his actions. But maybe the creature had a great concentration or maybe Jayden was just bad at pretending.
*KRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR*
The big creature created a loud strange noise that made Jayden’s ears to bleed, and his mind went hazy. Then it moved at an incredible speed and appeared before Jayden and even before Jayden had the chance to react, it bit into his shoulder.
” Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ” Jayden felt his entire body being torn apart as if someone was slicing his body with a sharp knife. The creature released a brown coloured poison in Jayden’s skin, and in the next moment, his veins began to bulge out before turning brown.

Inside a faraway world, an ethereal beauty sat inside a small wooden house that despite being surrounded by flames was not being destroyed in the slightest.
A strong white coloured flame was dancing around the beauty, engulfing her entire body. She was absorbing the energy from the surrounding at an dramatical rate.
‘ Hubby just wait a bit longer, I’m going to meet you soon, and when we do, we will do this and that hehe. ‘ She thought before going back to her training, her white hair fluttering inside the strong flames.
