"GURUuRUUGAAaa aA Aaa AaAA!!"

The Soul of the Berserk King awoke, filling my soul with a great wrath that resonated with the Blessings of the One-Eyed Snake and the Twin-Headed One. Verid throbbed on my right arm, and the jewel affixed into my left hand dazzled a black light as a black flame within it was lit.

—Kill the enemy before you! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Cut him, tear him apart, crush him to pieces, rip him to shreds, ground him to dust, grind him between your teeth, pierce him, severe him, slay him! Kill the enemy! Destroy the adversary!

I couldn't stop the hate from filling me.

Defiant Soul forcefully pulled out the power of the gods, but with that stolen power came the hate of the adherents.

—Kill! Kill! Kill! Fight! Fight!! Fight!!! Kill them all! All the humans Ativ created! Kill them all! Slay them! Slaughter them! Wipe them out from this world! —Make them pay! Make THEM PAY!!!

The skills activated themselves without any regard for my will.

It felt like the Hell of Avidya when the abyss greeted me.

When a blow landed on me, lifting me from the ground, a blade entered me.

Ahh, yes, an enemy that I'm allowed to kill is here. No, this enemy here is a detestable foe that MUST be KILLED!

The corners of my lips raised. My teeth chattered as I grit them against each other and the winds of the underworld buzzed in my ears.

—There is an enemy before me. An enemy... that I can kill... An enemy that... I can... KILL!

"OOoooOOOOOaaAaAAa!!"

Joy filled me from the bottom of my heart.

◆◇◇

Gene Marlon retrieved his rapier after piercing the monster. It was quite tough, but in the end he was able to slay it after piercing its heart.

He'd chased it from behind, piercing it ceaselessly to whittle down its strength until its whole body was covered with the traces of his beloved Fifire. Any normal goblin would have long died after 7 hits, but this monster just kept on calling the saint's name.

Its cries were exactly like those of a man whose beloved was taken away. They were wonderful cries. Indeed, there was nothing more pleasing in this world than to take the life of something with awareness.

Such creatures would scream as much pain as they were given, making the moment their lives were reaped just that much more satisfying. Gene was elated.

But that was that. Now that the monster was dead, all that was left was the sweet aftertaste of the hunt. It was time to go home. As for the rest, that Iron-Armed Knight would surely take care of it.

"Hmm... Oh, right, I should cut off its neck as proof."

The monster before him was a goblin king, whose stamina and strength reached far beyond any goblin lord's. It was a rare and powerful specimen, and bringing back its head would surely net him a medal from the king.
