Chapter 181: Uxtan Kingdom vs The Kingdom of Twilight (Final)
As I sat on top of the Fire Hero, he couldn't move, so he tried to struggle his way out, but I stabbed my fingernail into his right arm.
He screamed in pain and tried even harder to get out as I continually lifted it out and slashed it across his entire body.
"ARGGHHHHH!" The Fire Hero screams a blood-curdling cry with tears running down his face.
A rush of adrenaline-filled with ecstasy flowed through my body. It was a strange feeling that I was all too familiar with. It was something I had felt multiple times when watching the training of my pets and when displaying overwhelming power against an opponent.
I felt myself crave for more as I sat down even harder on his gut while pressing my fingernail against the Fire Heroes ear. Though it was only an assumption, I proceeded to press my fingernail straight into the hard outer part of the ear.
"AHHHHHH!" Screamed the Fire Hero as he tried to claw at my arm with pitiful strength.
It seems I was right… this place does hurt a lot… now, where hurts the most… I haven't finished yet.
Though I didn't realize it myself, I had been consumed by this world. As a result, I had adjusted my lifestyle and mentality a few times until I finalized with this.
I might've been insane in my past life, but after feeling the chains of the laws lift from my brain and feel the power that comes with ruling a kingdom, those suppressed ideals and thoughts came bursting out.
It was like how strict parents give their kids a curfew, and if they don't follow it, they'll be punished somehow… And once those kids grow up and decide to live on their own, they'll go crazy by pulling unhealthy all-nighters because those suppressed thoughts had been lifted.
Sometimes you have the rare occasion where the child follows those ideals until adulthood, but sometimes they'll see their friends going against those ideals, causing those ideals to lift slightly.
Once they lift slightly, there's no going back as they will continue to keep on lifting until they're completely gone.
That's why I believed in my past life that strict parents are one of the worst types of parents… not just cause the kids can't do anything, but because they end up corrupting their children by trying to set in ideals that most of the time don't work and in the end harm them.
"Hey, hey, hey… I'm not done yet," I say, lifting my fingernail out of the Fire Heros ear and bringing it across to his eye.
I thought he would scream in fear once my fingernail had hovered over his eye… but the Fire Hero passed out, foaming by the mouth.
"IT'S YOU! YOU DEMON!" I hear a loud cry come from behind me.
I looked back and saw the Light Hero charging towards me with nothing in hand, just his fists littered with cuts.
If he hits me with that, it's going to hurt him more than it's going to hurt me… but I already found this toy, so he's of no use.
With just a signal of my eyes, the commanders stabbed their weapons into the Light Hero, making him look like the last fallen soldier who his comrades betrayed.
He couldn't move as he was held in place by the 8 weapons that protruded from all sides of his body. The faint light that he kept in his eyes slowly faded as I knew my commanders had hit a vital organ, killing him instantly.
"Your highness, may we bring our armies back? Everybody is tired, and we want to use the last rush of adrenaline to make it back without much struggle," Akito requests.
"Hmmm… Permission granted… this guy is a bore," I click my tongue before slitting the Fire Heroes throat with my nail.
As I tried to [Inspect] him, all I got was…
[Fire Hero's Corpse]
[The corpse of the fallen Fire Hero who fought valiantly for his kingdom. The residents of the Uxtan Kingdom morn for the fallen hero as he was one of the few bright lights that kept the kingdom at peace.]
"What bullshit," I mutter before seeing a massive system screen appear in front of me.
[Calculating the excessive amount of XP]
…
[11.551.900 XP gained in total]
[You have leveled up (x26]]
"Nice," I mutter before lowering my head towards the Fire Heroes thigh.
[Gained the following skills]
[Summon: Fire Wings]
[Royal Fire Spear]
[Grand Fire Magic]
[Grand Destroying Spear Swing]
[Destructive Earth Shattering Strike]
…
[Gained the following titles]
[Naturally Talented]
[Godly Spearman]
[Detestable Figure]
…
"Fire Wings? Shouldn't that be a body modification- wait, is it like Cursed Wings?"
I immediately use the skill, only to confirm my question.
It looked pretty similar to my Cursed Wings form, and it was small, cute, and agile. But, unlike my Cursed Wings form, which looked like a normal chick from the earth, this one looked like a mini phoenix with just fire red feathers and golden eyes.
It gave off a sense of nobility as if it thought of itself as a higher being than everything around it.
"Pretty similar to its original wielder," I mutter after deactivating the skill.
I took a glance at the battlefield and saw my soldiers retreat as every single human was dead. Maybe a few escaped, but they wouldn't last long in the [Blood Swamp]. I could already sense the hungry monsters approaching the corpses.
But before I leave with the rest of my army, I take a bite out of the Light Hero's arm.
[Gained the following skills]
[Heavenly Light Spear]
[Heavenly Light Flag of Increased Morale]
[Summon: Lower Light Unicorn]
[Heavenly Light Sword]

…
[Gained the following titles]
[Respectable Figure]
[Godly Swordsman]
…
So I can't get soul equipment? How disappointing…
I swipe away the notifications that appeared in my vision before flapping my massive dragon wings once again.
The mental exhaustion from such little sleep, the stress that built up if we could win this war, and the need to pay attention to mostly everything in the beginning, made my consciousness waver slightly.
I felt my eyelids droop heavily as I slowly and quietly flapped back to my kingdom.
…
"Babe, are you alright?" I hear a familiar voice ask from behind me.
We were currently halfway back to the kingdom, and the adrenaline from the war had completely fizzled out. Everybody was exhausted, but we continued to push on so the kingdom wouldn't have to worry.
I didn't realize whose voice came from behind me as I was in a slight trance which consisted of flapping my dragon wings every 5 seconds.
I could've instantly darted back to my kingdom, but I wanted to keep the morale of the army high, so this wouldn't be a 2-day trip.
"Babe~? Can you hear me?" A familiar voice asks once again.
"*sigh*... It seems like you're exhausted. Well, I don't blame you as your stress levels were through the roof even before the war… Is that why you started to torture the Fire Hero, or was it because that guy was just that annoying?" The familiar voice asks once again.
"I don't know," I reply blankly.
"Here, let me help you; you're exhausted, so just relax," I hear the familiar voice say as an arm wrapped under my arm, supporting me up.
As I blankly look down, I saw that my soldiers had lost their last bit of blood-red aura, causing some even to pass out. Though there were no repercussions, if that skill were what kept them running and gave them an extra bit of energy, then it wouldn't be surprising if they passed out after losing that last bit of energy.
"SOLDIERS! HELP YOUR COMRADES UP! WE ARE ALMOST BACK, SO HANG ON A BIT LONGER!" I shout with the last bit of energy I left reserved.
I couldn't speak anymore as the rest of my energy went to flapping my wings.
"ALL HAIL THE QUEEN!" I hear my soldiers shout from below me.
A slight smile cracked onto my face.
[Day 65]
It seems I passed out yesterday as I suddenly jolted up from my bed. My wives were nowhere to be seen, but Freya and Luna were resting their heads against my chest, lightly sleeping and most likely waiting for me to wake up.
"Girls, wake up… It's time for breakfast," I say after seeing the crack of dawn from my glass ceiling.
"Mommy?" I hear Freya after she rubbed her sleepy eyes.
"Sweetie, it's time for breakfast," I say once again.
"Okay~" Freya replies but stands up, probably still trying to wake up.
And just as Freya stood up, Luna woke up only to hug me instantly. She nestled her head into my chest as I lightly stroked her hair… it seems she was worried about me.
"Mommy!" I hear Freya shout before jumping into my embrace as well.
"It's alright… I'm still here,"
He screamed in pain and tried even harder to get out as I continually lifted it out and slashed it across his entire body.
"ARGGHHHHH!" The Fire Hero screams a blood-curdling cry with tears running down his face.
A rush of adrenaline-filled with ecstasy flowed through my body. It was a strange feeling that I was all too familiar with. It was something I had felt multiple times when watching the training of my pets and when displaying overwhelming power against an opponent.
