Chapter 228 - The Mastermind (H)



However, after it saw Wrath focusing on using his thousands of hands to inscribe patterns on the talisman, it told itself that it was worrying about nothing.

There was no way that King Wrath found out that everything was going according to its plans from the very start.

It knew the moment it smelled the scent of its heart that its heart had gained a consciousness of its own and that it was going to eat them.

But it still led them here.

Why?

It\'s because it needed him to merge with its heart so that it would be able to realize his plan and take over his body for good!

In merely fifteen seconds, King Wrath managed to inscribe a reverse version of each of the inscription patterns on the talisman. Most of the talismans lost all of their power, and they loosely fell to the ground. The ones still sticking to the coffin still had some power in them, meaning they were still effective.

Without a single change in his expression, he controlled his numerous hands to grab the remaining talismans that fortified the defense of the ancient coffin and ripped them apart within a single moment.

"Only ten seconds left."

Hearing its words, he hurriedly opened the lid of the coffin. Inside laid the box, one made of gold. It had many intricate designs on it. There was nothing else in the coffin except for it.

"Is this it?" King Wrath asked, a slightly excited expression on his face.

"Yes, I am sure that my heart Is inside of it." It said in an overconfident voice.

Just to be sure, King Wrath used energy pressure to pulverize the coffin into many grains of sand. Then, he waved his hand, causing a wind to get generated. The gust of wind scattered the land, revealing nothing but emptiness.

"That\'s good." King Wrath hugged the golden box shaped like a nugget and dashed towards the portal that had already started thinning in size.

"Move faster!"

It didn\'t need to tell him that as King Wrath stomped his foot on the ground with such force that he managed to charge in the small gap of the portal before it closed.

The very next moment, King Wrath found himself in the empty hall. The familiar spiral staircase was in his eyesight. It was merely steps away from him.

"Open the box and get my heart!" It said excitedly.

"Alright, alright," King Wrath said, happily following his words.

It cursed him as a greedy dumbass in his mind and thought that it would soon make him pay the price of his green!

What it didn\'t notice was that King Wrath thought the same about it.

He knew everything about it.

He knew that it was thinking that everything was going according to its plans!

He knew that it would try to take over his body the moment the heart merges with him.

He knew that with two pieces of the demon body inside of him, it would be nigh impossible for him to fight against its corruption and invasion.

He knew all that, but he still happily took the heart out of the golden box.

"Swallow it, and you\'ll become one with it."

"Should I?"

"Yes, I guarantee you will become as strong as an emperor! You might even kill one! Believe me."

"Devil\'s whispers are the sweetest." King Wrath quoted the favorite line of the King of Time, "Why do I feel like you\'re planning something nefarious and it would only work if I consume this heart. Why do I feel like I would die if I do as you say?"

"Why would I betray you? Am I crazy? Didn\'t we already decide to put aside our differences and work together for a better future? I live only if you live. If you die, I die too. Enemies are coming for us from all sides; why would I still fight against you? You\'re my vessel but also the source of my existence. I will never try to take your life. You\'re a variant basilisk, and we can\'t exist separately."

\'We can\'t live separately, my ass.\'

True, it would die without his body.

And he would also die under the hands of his enemies if he lost his demon.

So, they indeed couldn\'t exist without each other.

However, it wasn\'t planning to get rid of him.

It was planning to suppress his consciousness to the deepest recess of his brain and take over his body!

"I guess I will believe you just this one."

Despite knowing the consequences of his actions, King Wrath happily put the demon\'s heart in his mouth after hearing its words.

\'Close you damn lips already!\' It roared in its mind when it saw its dried heart in the middle of his open mouth.

King Wrath closed his mouth but didn\'t swallow.

\'What is he waiting for?\' It wondered.

King Wrath wasn\'t waiting for anything. He was just fucking with it.

A moment later, he swallowed the heart with a gulp.

The heart went down his throat and into his stomach and took roots there. Tentacles stretched out of it and started spreading outwards. They passed over the inner walls of his guts, and they also wiggled over something extremely tiny. It was a tiny bomb that contained the power to destroy a city.

What it was doing in King Wrath\'s stomach, no one except for himself knew!

"Ah, fool!" Now that it was 100% sure that King Wrath had consumed its heart, it didn\'t need to hold back. "You fell for it! Hahaha!"

"Huh? What the hell are you trying to say?" King Wrath acted surprised. His mouth gaped, and his eyes widened a bit too. And he acted so perfectly that he led the demon to truly believe that he hadn\'t expected its betrayal!

"Let me tell you a secret; your greed is going to be the end of you."

"Bullshit! Come straight to the point. I don\'t have time to listen to your nonsense.." He said.
