Chapter 1022: Path of the Demon
One of the elves landed on the ground, not taking his hands off his bow that aimed at Karyk.
"Outsiders are not allowed here. Please return!"
Although the elves found Karyk suspicious, they didn\'t think that a single person was destroying the clans.
"Outsiders are not allowed? Why is it that I feel the presence of a very interesting outsider inside?" Karyk asked, already noticing that there was someone beyond the elves here.
There was something inside him that made him even more hungry as he felt the scent. It was his physique telling him that there was something really interesting for him inside.
Until now, he hadn\'t devoured any other high clan in this world. The only high clan members that he devoured were a few angels. From then on, he had been trying to draw more out.
He could feel that it had worked. Someone from another high clan had been drawn out. At that moment, the person was inside the forest.
"You... Don\'t tell me that I didn\'t warn you!" The elf released his fingers, shooting out the divine arrow.
The arrow flew straight for Karyk, leaving a divine essence trail behind it. However, the moment that arrow reached Karyk, a wall of darkness appeared between him and the arrow.
The arrow struck the wall of darkness but failed to penetrate it. Instead, it was the darkness that devoured the arrow.
Karyk raised his hand. From the same wall of darkness, a similar sized arrow shot out. The arrow wasn\'t made of giving energy though. It was made of the essence of the abyss.
The elf was stunned and couldn\'t react when the arrow struck his chest. He watched in disbelief as a trail of blood stained his clothes.
He dropped to the ground. The other Elves also knew that the man was hostile and dangerous. Without hesitation, they attacked him. Multiple arrows shot out at Karyk, but all of them were devoured by the sphere of darkness that appeared around him.
"That man is dangerous! We need to return and inform the others!" An elf stood up. "Hold him back! I will return with the others!"
"Where are you going?"
The Elf turned around to leave but before he could even jump to another branch, he noticed Karyk standing in front of him, angel-like wings behind his back.
With devouring so many species, Karyk had mastered a lot of abilities, one of which was shadow transfer. Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn
He could not only move his body from one of his shadows to another but he could also appear from other people\'s shadows.
"You... How did you-" The Elf froze in place. He couldn\'t even raise his bow when a scythe sliced through his throat, making his body fall off the tree branch.
The body of the elf fell from the branch, onto the ground where Karyk\'s darkness devoured his body.
The shadows of other Elves also came to life, stabbing them in the back. One after another, the hundreds of elves that had tried to kill Karyk were killed. No one was here to save them, or even know what had happened.
Once all the elves were devoured, Karyk waited for a few seconds to assimilate all the memories and information about their skills.
Unlike with the Kings of clans, it didn\'t take long to devour a few ordinary elf warriors. Within a few seconds, he was ready.
"It seems I was right. The Fairy is here. If I can devour her, I\'ll be able to..."
He didn\'t complete his sentence and walked towards the core of the forest. A fairy was important in this world, even more so for him.
Even if he knew the rough location of the fairy clan, he couldn\'t enter that place. It was impossible as only through a portal could one enter that place. And only a fairy could open the portal.
He could forcefully break that barrier, but that much time was enough for the fairies to escape. That\'s why he had been waiting for this moment.
He intentionally left the elf clan alone until now, only leaving a single undead here to keep an eye on them. All his hard work had paid off. With the fairies, it was truly the beginning of his rise in this world.
He kept walking towards the core of the forest, killing everyone that came across him. Not a single elf that came in his path survived long enough to return and inform others.
Karyk\'s face didn\'t change expressions even in the slightest even as he killed the elves. He had killed so many people that he had become numb to it.
In the past, he had told the young whale that he was a bad guy. The young whale didn\'t believe him, but looking at his own actions now, Karyk was even more sure that he was a bad person.
He was killing so many people, most of whom had nothing to do with him. And it was all because he wanted to protect a handful of people. To save the mortal world from the Angels, he was willing to destroy the realm of gods.
To stand equal to the High Council Angels, he was willing to be a demon and devour the entire realm. Only by becoming perfect could he be confident that he could be prepared for everything that was to come.
Soon, Karyk reached the village in the middle of the forest. The old man had just returned after showing the fairy her house when he came across the dark robed man.
"W-who are you?" he asked Karyk, taking a step back. However, his face was soon filled with horror as he saw darkness rise all around him, devouring everyone in the village.
He was the last person to be killed, looking back at the house of the fairy who hadn\'t stepped out, as if not even able to sense anything.
