Awakened: Evolving to Godhood

Chapter 226 - The Cause Of His Parent's Death?



"This is for all the humans that died because of you."

Pa! Pa! Pa!

Endless rains of powerful slap rained down on the face of the serpentine devil, causing its necks to twist. Its jaw dropped, and its tongue stuck out of its mouth. With its wagging out of its mouth and injuries all over its face that was as swollen as a baboon's ass, the onlookers thought that the serpentine devil looked like a badly abused street dog! Just the thought of comparing the great terrorist to a dog poked the funny bone in their body and made them laugh unconsciously.

Elliot humiliated it so much that it unconditionally puked out one mouthful of blood after another.

Of course, the more blood the serpentine devil lost, the better Elliot felt. Although he had a smile on his face, his entire being was blazing with anger. If one looks closely at his face, one will undoubtedly notice that swirling in his eyes was immense rage that threatened to destroy the world.

He was angry, and a person only feels this time of anger when he finally finds the murderer of his parents!

"This is for my parents who died because of your nefarious schemes." Another twenty slaps landed on its face.

Elliot's rage wasn't without reason. One must know that there were signs of the serpentine devils in the ancient settlement where his parents and many other members of the magician community went missing. He had seen the newscaster mentioning many suspicious points that linked to the serpentine devil and its organization.

At that time, the topic that the serpentine devils were the cause behind the death of many channel opening realm and grandmaster realm magicians died down pretty fast.

The news got played on T.V only a few times! Every mention about it also disappeared from the internet!

It was as if someone was intentionally trying to suppress it.

Only a few people who were keeping an eye out for every news about that incident managed to see that news! Among them were people who had lost their families.

Of course, Elliot was one of the few who had seen that news.

And with what he had learned in the past few days, he became sure that the serpentine devils were an indirect cause of the death of his parents.

"Stop it, you damned mortal! You can't even begin to comprehend my terror! The more you humiliate me today, the harder I will burn you when I set foot in your world! Don't burn the bridges only to bring your downfall!"

"Pa!"

A majestic, overbearing, and demonic voice boomed in the shattered land only because Elliot allowed it.

Yet, it only fell on deaf ears.

It looked like the serpentine devil had a lot to say, so Elliot had stopped pounding its face.

However, he regretted his action.

All the words it spewed out were full of shit, and they didn't garner any reason for him to stop.

'Sigh, I should've just kept on slapping it until it had died rather than stopping to hear it out.'

"Why can't you even beg properly, little snake? You are begging me to stop yet also threatening me at the same time. Are you mad or so dumb that you can't even realize the way of the world?" Elliot clicked his tongue as if he had seen something disgusting and offensive.

The devil that got slapped again felt a searing pain in its cheeks, one that dislocated its jaw.

"In this world, only strength matters. If you have the power to stop me, then try your best. After all, my hands are not going to stop falling on your cheeks."

"…"

Hearing its words, the serpentine devil widened its eyes in anger. It couldn't even move its toes, so how could it put up a resistance?! This person was intentionally making fun of it, again and again!

The serpentine devil wanted to say something, but before he could even utter a word, Elliot started slapping it senselessly. Chained from head to toe and having no way to kill itself or even say a word, it could only endure this humiliation.

From the looks of it, Elliot had no intention of killing it.

He only wanted to humiliate it.

If possible, he wanted the serpentine devil to die out of humiliation!

The serpentine devil could tell of all that.

And it felt more and more angered!

In the end, it lost its rationality and decided to burn its essence blood to use one of its seven innate racial traits.

Demons like them were born with innate skills. They were different from the extraordinary power called Hell's paradise.

The innate skills were something they naturally gained each time they evolved.

It had evolved seven times, so it had seven innate racial traits, and each of them defied logic, allowing it to perform supernatural feats.

The thing was that to use even one of them; it needed to burn its essence blood.

Essence blood was a source of finite energy that demons congeal after digesting a lot of natural treasures and living beings, and they could only store a limited amount of it in their body.

For example, the serpentine devil could only store seventy units of essence blood in its body as it was a demon who had evolved seven times. And it was only able to produce 6-10 drops of essence blood every few years or so.

Even then, it needs to intake many resources!

It had already burned more than a dozen units of essence blood while fighting against Elliot.

Yet, it was going to burn even more.

Unknowingly, Elliot had made it suffer a great deal.

"Argh!"

The serpentine devil maddened roar indicated that it had enough of getting slapped. It was now its turn to turn the tide and possibly even fight back!

Elliot could feel that something was up, but before he could point it out, the serpentine devil made its move.

"Seventh innate racial trait: Blood escape."
