Chapter 78 Who's The Murderer Here?

"Nothing, I only came after the fact. I thought you wanted to kill Lucas." Lya turned to Haya when she answered his question.

"I didn't," Izek said as he walked closer to them, "I planned to destroy both of you, but I changed my mind."

"We-we not talking about you right now, you're evil, Izek and I will never forgive you...!" Lya shouted.

"Fine, I will kill you anyway then. But first, I need to hear what you have to say." Izek placed his hands on his hips, "now, start talking."

Lya hesitated for a minute but then began talking.

"The only reason why we tried to stop you from taking Lucas's body was that we knew that you were going to use your powers to take over the entire planet and kill everyone. We were scared of what would happen, so we decided to stop you, but we failed."

She inhaled more air and added, "now we are trying to find out what you plan to do next." Lya explained.

"And what exactly did you learn?" Izek asked.

"That you have found a new power. It seems like you can steal someone else's body." Lya answered.

"Yes, I have a new power." Izek nodded.

"Why don't you tell us what it is?" Lya suggested.

"You want to know what I have learned?"

"Yes." Lya nodded.

Izek scratched his head, "well, let's see..." He paused for a few seconds and then spoke again, "it is a power that allows me to take over someone else's body."

"How do you know that?" Xina asked.

"I feel that I have mastered it. I believe that I can use this power to take control of anyone I wish." Izek lied.

"No, that's not possible, you can't do that, that's not fair," Lya interjected.

"Fair? Who cares about fairness? If I want to take control of someone's body, all I have to do is imagine it. Then, my mind takes care of the rest." Izek raised his hand, "try to picture this for me."

Xina closed her eyes as she pictured an image of Lucas's body. Instantly, the image disappeared and Izek's body appeared in its place.

"Is that true?" Lya asked.

"Yes, I can control this body too," Izek confirmed.

"But this is impossible! No one can ever do that, not even you, Izek!"

"Who says that I can't? You don't know anything about me, do you? Besides, I have other abilities that no one knows about." He grinned.

"What do you mean by that?" Xina stepped back as she asked him.

"I'm not here to talk about the power you three will never have, have you forgotten to whose thanks you three can walk freely and see daylight every day?" Izek sighed as he placed his hand on his forehead, "it will be easier to kill you three and move on for an amount of time while you three come back to life. I should've found the person behind the plot." He removed his hand and looked at them one more time.

"I won't let you take Lucas's body." Lya stood up, "he is innocent!" She continued to shout as she jumped at Izek, but the moment she took a step toward him, she froze and fell to her knees.

"Did you forget who you are talking to here? Where is your sister's body?" A cold voice came from above her.

"What are you going to do with Lucas's body?" Xina asked hesitantly as she kept glancing at Haya's hands.

"If you want to know, I will tell you." Izek smirked, "I'll show you how to destroy his soul."

"You wouldn't dare!" Haya shouted, "spirit of the earth, I summon you to fight!" He straightened his palm as he pushed Xina behind him.

A small-looking avatar landed before Haya. It looked heavy and muddy.

"Not these old spirits, Haya... When will you learn?" Izek brushed his hands through his hair and it changed to shiny silver colour, "I see you still want us to play." He whispered.

A large black snake appeared in front of Izek. The snake stretched its long neck and bit Izek's shoulder as it screamed, releasing a dark red liquid.

"What is happening? Why is Izek's avatar black?" Lya gasped as she saw the snake sucking out his blood and Izek not even flinching but creepily smiling with his eyes closed.

"He has a new power user, the same as Haya," Xina answered her questions while observing Izek's snake.

"Ha! Ha! Ha! You really think that those useless spirits are a threat to me?" Izek laughed as he threw some powder on the ground, "now, watch this!"

The small pieces of white light began to glow brightly and grow into a giant ball of fire. It moved forward, heading towards Haya.

As the fireball approached Haya, he waved his hand and a large black serpent appeared between him and the fireball.

The serpent twined around the fireball and cut it into two.

"That's it!" Izek shouted as he grabbed another piece of the fire.

"Wait! What are you doing, Izek?!" Lya cried out.

"This is it!" Izek shouted as he threw the second piece of the fireball right on top of the black serpent.

The snake shrieked as the fireball hit Haya. The moment it was released from his grasp, the snake turned to ashes.

"You didn't tell us that you can manipulate spirits too!" Lya yelled at Izek.

"Oh, you missed something." Izek smiled as he pointed at Lya, "do you remember when I said that I had many other powers that no one knew about?"

Lya shook her head.

"Well, now you know."

"What did you do to Haya?" Xina raised her voice.

"I'm not done yet." Izek laughed as he pulled another piece of the fireball from the air.

"No!" Xina shouted as she stood up, "you can't do this to Haya."

"It seems that you have forgotten who you are talking to. Who do you think you are?" Izek chuckled as he threw the last piece of the fireball at Xina.

"Xina!"
