Chapter 2486 The Shape of a ManAlex stared before him with a look of awe and shock. Before him was Godslayer, but something was different about him.
Godslayer was still surrounded by the black smoke made up of Death and Darkness, but there was something more to the smoke now. It had a shape, almost making it take the form of a man.
Alex half-believed he could see the man within the shape—a long-nosed man with slightly closed-in eyes, along with thin lips and a short goatee. The man appeared thin, thinner than Alex, but with about the same height. His hair was nothing but drifting smoke that trailed behind him with no shape.
"You're awake!" Alex shouted in surprise.
The shape of Godslayer turned his head toward him. "I have drowned in my nightmares for far too long. It is time I take to the surface and face my fears for real."
Alex could somewhat make out what Godslayer was trying to say. "Thank you. Thank you for saving me."
Godslayer shook his head. "You helped save me from what I had become, Alex," he said. "This is the least I could do."
Alex was taken aback by Godslayer's words. This was very different from how the sword spirit usually spoke. He seemed to have matured since a century ago when Alex last saw him after gathering the Darkness aura from the Ever Dark realm.
The change was too strange for Alex.
The woman stared at the two with great caution. She had felt the force with which she had been struck, so she understood to be careful around the newcomer. Still, she couldn't help but be morbidly curious.
"You are neither a soul nor a spirit," Dumei said. "What are you?"
Godslayer turned away from Alex upon hearing the question and looked down at himself. A look of sorrow took over his face made of black smoke. "A Soul or a Spirit; I do not know what I am myself."
He looked up from himself and stared at the woman.
"What I do know is who I am. I am Godslayer. I am the reason why darkness clouds your future, and the reason why the only thing left in your fate is death."
"You tried to kill my savior, so prepare to die."
The black smoke around Godslayer coalesced into the shape of a sword that streamed black smoke itself. It had no solid shape, so Alex couldn't see it properly, but he had a vague feeling that its shape was similar to Midnight.
"Fortify your mind and do everything you can to protect it," Godslayer whispered to Alex. "If you fail to do so, both of us will die here today."
Alex nodded. "Do what you must. Leave the rest to me."
Godslayer charged toward the woman.
Dumei had a look of shock that had appeared in her when she heard Godslayer's name. Searᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
She may have been a demon, but even she had heard of this thing. The being that went around killing gods. During the war, she had heard reports of it appearing in battlefields and killing everyone, demon or human, who was anywhere close to being in the presence of a god.
There were many battles the demon had won solely because Godslayer had arrived and killed a god, causing chaos for the rest of the humans.
She had never seen it herself, but she knew of its might, and she knew of its terror. Today, hearing the name, she had never been more scared in her life, not even when she had died in her physical body.
She had seen her death coming during that battle and knew how she could escape it. However, this time, it was different. This time, she was a soul, which was vulnerable.
