Rise of The Anti God

"Before that, how do you manage to change your face like that?" Damien asked Veiled Mamba as he was curious how one could disguise their face perfectly without any flaws.

Veiled Mamba winced even more, and her eyes became resolute as if she finally decided on something.

Her lips curved as she said, "You...will never know."

And soon after, she said that blood sprayed out of her mouth, and she died a quick death.

"At least you died easy," Damien coldly mumbled to himself.

Damien knew she had some suicide mechanism installed in her body in case she got captured, and he didn't stop her.

He didn't mind even if she died since he can just use his Shackles of Death to get whatever information he wants.

His soul energy started to burn since Veiled Mamba was dead, and he needed to hold her soul in place not to let it escape.

However, Damien was able to manage with his special soul to hold down hers easily since it seemed that her soul cultivation was only at the Late Soul Transformation Stage.

Roy and Dennisa were shocked to see Veiled Mamba commit suicide without much hesitation but then thought that maybe that was the best way than to give a chance for Damien to torture her.

Realizing that, they gulped, thinking what Damien and Valentina were going to do to them.

Even if they inwardly knew Damien was going to kill them, they refused to accept that fact, nor did they have enough courage to do something like Veiled Mamba.

"Damien...you better let us go...my father will hunt you down...if y-you kill us."

"Yes...if you let us go now...we p-promise to not bother you both further…"

Dennisa and Roy said with a slight threat one after the other, which only made Damien smile seeing their stupidity.

He wondered if these two had their brains scrambled because of fear.

"Ha-ha-ha!" Damien couldn't help but let out a roar of laughter while Valentina smiled with an ominous glint in her eyes.

"How dumb you both are…" Damien shook his head with a sigh and continued in a dark tone as he hugged Valentina by her hips, "You two not only tried to kill me but also my lover, who means the world to me. Not even the gods can stop me from taking your pitiful lives."

Valentina's face went red as she felt the intense love he had for her from just his words.

Roy and Dennisa's expression became ashen as they could feel killing intent slowly oozing out from Damien's aura.

They felt as if their very souls were being assaulted by the overwhelming pressure of death to the point they felt that their deaths were set in stone.

But if Damien were not restricting it, they would have died from purely just his killing intent.

"Valentina, hold me till I finish up things."

Valentina nodded as she supported Damien's body against her since she could guess what Damien was about to do.

Without further ado, Damien transferred his consciousness towards Veiled Mamba's soul plane since he still had her soul grasped in his palm.

His body went limp, and Valentina let his body fall over her as she supported it.

Since his soul energy carrying the death force already spread through Veiled Mamba's body before, her body healed back to its original state, and Roy and Dennisa were shocked to see the things unfolding before them.

They saw that for some reason, Damien suddenly became unconscious and noticed the dead body on the ground stirring awake.

"AH!" Dennisa got spooked out to see a dead person getting up, and she almost passed out in shock if it were not the adrenaline pumping in her body.

Roy's jaws slacked as blood and saliva continued to drip out, and his eyes trembled in shock, not believing what was happening right before his eyes.

Valentina only seemed slightly surprised though inwardly she was astonished. Since Damien already told her about his plan and that he had a mysterious ability to control a dead body, she was able to prepare her mind for the astounding things Damien did.

'Veiled Mamba' spoke, "Wow...I can't believe it," Damien couldn't believe what he found out when he searched her memories.

'Veiled Mamba' moved her hand over her face, and suddenly a bizarre thing happened. A wooden green colored mask popped out from her face and stuck to her palm, revealing the face of an old woman.

'A mask artifact to disguise one's face? How amazing and convenient…' Damien was also surprised to find out that this mask concealed one's aura perfectly, and even Luna commented that this treasure could even be used to fool false divinity practitioners!

'A divine artifact no less! But how and where did she get it from…' From Veiled Mamba's memories, all he saw was that she inherited it from her family as some kind of family heirloom but didn't know more about the mask's origins.

Although the mask felt as if it was made out of wood, Damien was sure that even if the emperor of the Xeton Empire used his full attack power on this mask, it wouldn't even leave a scratch.

Luna was also puzzled how such a precious artifact ended up in a place like the Rising Sun Continent.

She was sure that it had to come from outside the Rising Sun Continent, and Damien also agreed on the same.

Roy, Dennisa, and even Valentina were surprised to see the green mask in 'Veiled Mamba's' hand. When they saw the face of an old woman, they wondered if this was the true face of the Veiled Mamba.

But most of all, Roy and Dennisa couldn't process how a dead person got up with no injuries from before and even talk!

They felt as if they already died and were seeing having weird dreams in the afterlife.

They closed their eyes, praying to let this nightmare end and that this was all just a bad dream. They couldn't stop cursing at themselves for provoking this malignant star going with the name 'Damien'.

Ever since he made his first appearance, their grand and extravagant way of life were slowly coming to an end.

They were standing atop everyone, looking down on others as if they were just mere ants to be trampled upon.

But a nobody from the Rong Empire managed to pull them down to the depths of hell within just months. They didn't even know about Damien a few months ago, and everything they enjoyed for more than a decade was lost within these months.

Their reputation, their cultivation, their appearance, everything crumbled and destroyed because of just one person who was even younger than them and had a lower cultivation level!

And for the first time, they wondered if they were reaping the consequences of their sins. If Damien knew about their thoughts, he would be impressed at himself that he made such people question their own life choices.

But he wouldn't find it surprising since he knew that when one was about to die, things suddenly became exceptionally clear to them, including everything in their life.

After examining the mask, Damien indeed thought that he had no use for it! With his abilities, including Shackles of Death, why would he ever need something like this? And the mask wouldn't allow the user to disguise themselves into the opposite gender.

He already had the perfect and foolproof method of disguising himself as others. So, without any hesitation, he tossed the mask towards Valentina and said through his soul connection to Valentina, "You can take it. It is a very precious artifact, and I will tell you later how to use it."

He decided to name the mask 'Mask of Mischief' since he felt that Valentina could be even more mischievous by using this mask.

He then turned around towards Roy and Dennisa, who had already given in to despair and thrown away all hope. They couldn't even use their life-saving emergency treasures, especially when there was a barrier surrounding the whole region, blocking any transmissions.

Even if they wanted to try, they couldn't, especially when their cultivation was crippled and Damien was restraining them.

"Sorry to keep you both waiting," 'Veiled Mamba' said with a mocking smile and continued, "Let me give you both a fitting ending."

And with a poof, orange flames manifested on 'Veiled Mamba's' palm, and the intense heat emanating from it made Roy and Dennisa jerk open their eyes in horror.

"NO!"

"Please don't!!"

The two bitterly screamed on top of their voices.

'Veiled Mamba' scoffed as she said, "Fire is the best way to absolve you two of your sins." And immediately, the flames on her palm flared up before sending it towards Roy and Dennisa.

Damien inwardly thanked Reva again for helping him comprehend Fire Laws to a certain extent. Otherwise, even if he took control of Veiled Mamba's body, he wouldn't be able to use her fire elemental seed without having any comprehension.

Unfortunately, his proficiency in using Shackles of Death hadn't become high enough to use the comprehension of a dead person to use their ethereal arts, elemental seeds, etc.

"NOOOO!!!"

"HAVE MERCY!!!"

Screams and wails of horror echoed in the hall as the smell of burning flesh spread in the air.

And soon enough, the cries and screams stifled and were replaced by an eerily silence as the flames continued to burn their bodies.

Valentina smiled as Damien mumbled while looking at the two burning figures, "Death knows no mercy."
