Chapter 89

It was a mere infant, but what did I know?

It had tried to kill me, immediately making it an enemy in my eyes. I knew that I would have to kill it, and I wouldn't have stopped even if you had told me it was a child.

Maybe it was only then that it had finally clicked in my head.

There is nothing in this world to judge my actions anymore.

I wasn't being watched.

Everything was an enemy.

Why would I care about morals?

Why don't I just do whatever I want?

Why don't I just destroy everything?

'Hahahahahahahah.' My eyes had become devoid of all emotion.

"Keke-hahahahahaha" I finally began laughing out loud.

The fear in the eyes of the treant deepened.

I could see its soul leaving its vessel.

It was terrified... of me.

A mere human.

A mortal.

I had nothing.

I was weak.

Just a normal armless human.

Yet, it had been forced to watch me as I killed all of its companions one by one.

One... By... One...

I stretched my only hand down to grab my ax. Gripping it within my hand, I wiggled it out, something that caused even more blood to gush out.
