It wasn't just them.Others who had taken part in the Church's heinous acts could also guess what had happened to make this monster seek revenge.They couldn't help but regret ever joining this group of despicable individuals, but at the time, they had no choice.They needed money.They needed to make a living.So they took whatever they could get, even if it meant working for these wretched people who exploited others, especially children.Weak, sick, and disabled children.They knew from the beginning that they were going to hell for the things they had done, but greed had blinded them.And now, standing in the presence of a grim reaper who had come to reap them for their sins, they could do nothing but feel regret.The seven leaders felt their feet turn cold.Sweat formed on their bodies, their blood pumped faster, and some of them even forgot to breathe.They knew the kind of horrors they had inflicted on those who had come to them seeking religion, faith, and God, only to find co

As soon as Ray's fist connected, Luciano was sent flying backward, blood dripping from his mouth as he crashed into a broken wall.Yet somehow, he was still alive.Ray didn't care that he had survived because he didn't want him to."Stop... We won't let you do as you please."This time, it wasn't just the Gifteds who arrived to save the day.Seven leaders of the faction stood up, one of them raising his hand, glowing with thick green energy.That energy spread to the other injured leaders, healing their wounds from Ray's surprise attack with the [Flame Tempest] spell."Oh, so you have the ability to heal others, huh?" Ray sneered."But just because you've healed your wounds, you think you can stop me? Or is it that you're confident now that your little helpers have come to your rescue? Do you think numbers will make a difference?"Ray raised an eyebrow as he lifted Luciano Deveraux by the neck.The man's body was completely broken, bones shattered, blood flowing from his mouth and nos

They all felt as if they were being judged by a predatory monster.They didn't want to find out what he would do if they refused his order and continued defending the [Lord's Disciple] faction.At the same time, they felt conflicted.Some were from different worlds similar to Earth, all sharing the same faith, and some were even from Ray's own world.They had no idea what their faction leaders, who had promised them power and fame, had done.Should they believe this monster's words?But seeing how their leaders didn't deny anything, they were forced to believe him.Morally, some of them wanted to support the monster in eliminating these leaders.But out of loyalty, they didn't want to abandon their faction.Who were they kidding?There was no faction anymore.Looking around, the territory had been completely demolished, reduced to nothing but chunks of rock.Hundreds of their faction members had already died in the crossfire.This was no longer a faction.It was a graveyard.After som

"Still, his growth is unusual," Ery mused. "We expected him to develop at an exceptional rate, but even for him, this seems excessive, doesn't it?""I know what you mean," Ery nodded as she brought up another system prompt for them to examine."I've been monitoring his body's changes for some time. There are three main reasons why he evolved on his own.""First, his physical strength has already surpassed what an unevolved human could handle. His body had no choice but to evolve to efficiently channel his growing power.""Second, his energy reserves. His body is coursing with so much energy that every cell is feeding off it to accelerate his evolution. Particularly, the [Wood Essence]. While it didn't directly cause his transformation, it contributed at least 40% to his evolution.""And third, his soul. The primary reason humans can't evolve on their own is that their souls are too weak to withstand the transformation.""Normally, their souls must strengthen first before their bodies

"There is something I wanted to ask you about," Ray turned his gaze back to Sir Grant."I want to know what I have to do to become a Grandmaster.""Grandmaster?"The plebeian vampire's eyes widened in surprise.He definitely didn't expect someone as impulsive as Ray to be interested in becoming a Grandmaster.After all, walking down the road to becoming a Grandmaster requires immense patience.Something Ray obviously didn't seem to possess.He was also very young, and it had only been a few months since the system arrived in his home world.He shouldn't have had enough time to reach such a high level that he would already be thinking about the Grandmaster realm."Wow, thinking about becoming a Grandmaster already? Aren't you quite ambitious? Which path are you taking? Spears or swords?" Sir Grant asked, smiling slightly."How about everything?" Ray replied with a grin."You are joking, right?" Sir Grant frowned."..." Ray simply smiled."...You are joking... right?"Sir Grant's frown
