Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality-Chapter 231 The Blood Knight [1] - The Destroyer of Worlds

231 The Blood Knight [1] - The Destroyer of Worlds

---Diamond Academy---

"Has he been following the rules?" An old man asked while walking alongside a younger man with blonde hair and pointy long ears.

"Weirdly enough, it seems like he hasn't even tried to break any of the rules. Even the girl from the clan seemed to have gotten bored from following him around." The man spoke calmly with his eyes shut, yet there was no hesitation in his movements, almost like he could see everything without having to open his eyes.

"Do you think he's up to something?" The headmaster asked with narrowed eyes.

"I don't know..." The elf next to the headmaster let out a sigh. At the same time, the headmaster looked at him with shock that he could not hide or hold back.

"You don't know?" He asked, his words almost containing a stutter.

"That's right. I don't know. Even my eyes can't see through the millions of secrets that boy seems to hold. However, there is one thing that I can tell you for sure." The elf's eyelids partitioned, creating narrow slits that allowed his bright diamond-like silver eyes to shine.

"He may act weak... He may even underestimate himself. He may even think he's weaker than us... But we're wrong. He's much stronger than any of us could imagine. He's thought of everything. Everything from the small mistakes he seems to make, to the actions he makes." The elf spoke with a strained tone, yet the headmaster could not help but let out a slightly mocking smile.

"You speak of him as if he is omniscient or something." The headmaster nudged the elf while letting out a husky laugh.

"He's not omniscient..." The elf paused before looking in a certain direction.

"He's just thought of everything. For example, he probably wanted me to see that." The elf pointed at where he was looking, but since the headmaster did not have eyes like that of the elves, the only thing he could do was let out of his mana and try to sense any disturbances.

Suddenly, his aura covered the entire academy before his eyes slightly widened.

In the same instance, he fell to the ground while clutching his head, his expression filled with pain and misery.

The elf's eyes were narrowed, as if not understand why the headmaster had just fallen to the ground. However, he was not stupid enough to release his aura as well and try to sense whatever created such a powerful reaction from the elderly man.

It took a few minutes for the headmaster to get off the floor finally. He could still feel a headache lingering at the back of his head, but he quickly controlled the feeling of nausea and looked back at the elf.

"Awaken master." The headmaster spoke as a small drop of blood came out of the corner of his mouth, streaking down his chin and eventually down his neck, too.

"What!?" The elf widened his eyes before narrowing them down again.

"I can't-"

"That's an order." The headmaster roared, causing the elf to flinch.

His eyes moved back to the location of the energy he was seeing.

A green energy pulsed out of the area, slowly coming off the room in waves.

The energy was calm, yet, at the same time, it felt like nothing he'd ever seen before.

'Is he really human?' He inwardly thought before turning around, yet a feminine voice entered his mind before he could get far.

"What kind of creature have your brought into my academy?"

They both shivered when they heard the voice but quickly got onto their knees, not daring to look up.

They didn't know where she was, but if there was a chance that she was in front of them, they were not about to take the risk of looking up.

A crimson aura suddenly surged through the entire academy before moving upwards.

Suddenly, a crimson pair of eyes looked down at the academy, watching and seeing everything simultaneously. No wall could stop the piercing gaze... Now, power could push the energy back.

Everyone, no matter how strong or weak, felt the energy.#

Ivy, who was sitting in her room absorbing the energy of the rising sun, shivered and looked up.

Her eyes quickly shone white, and she gazed at the pair of illusory crimson eyes in the sky through all the walls and barriers put in place.

"Gilea..." Ivy muttered, but after she didn't get a reaction, she could not help but grit her teeth.

Gilea only spoke to her when it was of her interest, and for the last few years, the only thing that seemed to catch Gilea's interest was Silas himself.

Of course, just because Gilea didn't respond didn't mean that she wasn't watching. She had eyes and ears everywhere, and it was almost impossible to hide something from her.

At the same time, Nymira's aura flared before being instantly suppressed by the domineering gaze from the sky. It felt like the sky itself was staring down at her.

But it wasn't just that.

She had sensed the power far before everyone else in the room. The moment she breathed into it through her nose, the scent of dread pierced through her mind, instantly taking over her heart.

It was an unfathomably horrid sense of dread that would have made the average person fall to their knees. Fortunately, not everyone had senses as powerful as Nymira's.

Alex felt it, too, and so did Aka and the rest of the teachers in the academy.

Yet, everyone was having it easy. After all, the gaze was not directed toward them.

It was directed toward a certain room where an individual sat on the ground with several flasks before him. Each flask held a different colored liquid that bubbled and boiled as a distinct pale blue flame heated it.

The white-haired individual floated a few centimeters from the ground, wearing a pitch-black robe that had formed seconds earlier and wrapped itself around the individual.

The man's eyes shone like two emerald stars within the vast ocean of darkness that had swept over the hall.

Two lone stars floated among hundreds of green runes that had never been seen before on that planet. Green runes that Gilea herself was seeing for the first time.

The runes shifted and changed, illuminating their section of the vast hall yet never reaching the ground...

As if the entire hall was covered in an endless darkness.

As if the hall itself had become the darkness.

A wry smile crept up the man's lips as he looked at the scene before him with a sinister gaze.

"I really outdid myself this time." Silas' smile crept further up his face, creating a grin stretching from one ear to another.

The flasks before him stopped bubbling, and, eventually, grew still enough that the color within them could be seen properly.

There was a crimson-red potion, a pure white one that let out a milky luster, and a vibrant potion with a golden luster.

The man's eyes slowly moved upwards and stared right back at the crimson gaze, his body not flinching for a moment, and his eyes remaining locked upon the powerful gaze.

"Now I wonder... Who might you be?"

Silas' gaze quickly shifted to behind him, and when his eyes landed on a certain location within the endless void, thousands of crimson threads formed out of thin air before slowly wrapping around each other.

"So you're the Game Evergreen everyone is talking about." A voice spoke from the cluster of threads that were slowly forming a body.

It only took a few more seconds for a feminine figure to appear before him wearing a red and black robe. Her eyes shone with deep red light, and her silky black hair with red highlights flowed down her back.

"Are you trying to charm me?" Silas narrowed his eyes and let out a chortle filled with mockery.

The woman was way too beautiful for her not to be using some kind of charm ability on him.

"I'll take that as a compliment." She closed her eyes and let out a wry chuckle.

Silas didn't say anything, but he couldn't help but be surprised by what he saw. He had mystic eyes activated, so the only thing he could see were outlines of her figure. Yet, even with his mystic eyes activated, he couldn't help but feel slightly enamored by her.

'Better now deactivate mystic eyes then.' Silas thought before taking a step forward.

"How rune of me to not introduce myself..." He smiled before cupping his hand and performing a small bow.

"My name is-"

"I know who you are."

"I am well aware." Silas smiled, having heard her say his name before.

"I don't think you understand..." She breathed out a sigh and spoke again with a piercing gaze.

"I know who YOU are."

Silas controlled his expression, not showing anything on his face except for the smile that he had on before.

"This was a likely outcome." Silas rubbed the back of his head while chuckling.

"You seem to have misunderstood once again." The woman sighed and took a step forward.

Reality warped around her, and instantly, she appeared before Silas. 𝑏𝑒𝑑𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙．𝑐𝘰𝘮

He didn't flinch, but she was well aware of the fact that he didn't see her movements.

"My name is Veronica, The blood knight. Or at least that's the name Gilea gave me." A smile slowly crawled up her lips.

"And I know who you are, Seth Evergreen..." She paused, her smile almost becoming maniacal.

"Or should I call you by your more popular name...

The destroyer of worlds."
