Awakened: Evolving to Godhood

Elliot scoffed, tightening his grasp on Curtis's writs, instantly shattering the bones on his hands, letting him scream in pain.

At the same time, the golden tentacles connected to his back nullified their attacks before whipping towards them, landing a strike on their head and waist, exploding their heads as if bursting open a watermelon with a bat and splitting apart their bodies from the waist down with a single strike, killing a lot of them in the time it took for Lisa to blink her eye in disbelief.

"When did he become so powerful?" Lisa said under her breath while looking at Elliot, feeling so shocked that her eyes threatened to pop out of her sockets and her soft lips remained parted open.

The blood spilling out of their headless and chopped-up bodies splashed on the ground, tainting it, scaring Curtis and the rest of the evil onlookers to their core.

"Resistance is futile, just wait for your turn like good puppies," Elliot said, looking at the remaining men in black with an expression of scorn.

As his gaze swept past them, they trembled in fear, thinking that this sadistic maniac is thinking of treating them in the same way he treated their commander.

Just thinking about it made them piss their pants even though they were murderers, cultists, followers of the Serpentine Devil, and rapists.

"Please forgive me! I am willing to use my entire life to pay for my mistakes! Let the Magic invigilator take me to the Sky Prison. Please let them judge my sins!" A rich teenager, who joined the serpentine devils thinking that it would be fun torturing, murdering, and raping others said in a shaky voice, begging Elliot to let him go.

"Yeah, please forgive us!"

"Let the association judge out sins!"

"Aren't you a law-abiding man?! Why kill us and get your hand dirty when you can let the association do this work for you."

"You damned traitors! How dare you surrender!" Curtis said, eyes threatening to pop out their sockets and mouth agape, unable to believe that these dogs were ready to give up on his mighty devil, the serpentine devil, to survive.

"Shut up, you dumb bitch!" Elliot slapped Curtis hard on the face, causing a clapping sound to resound throughout the alley. Immediately after, he created a tape using his godly powers and sealed Curtis's face with it.

He then turned to look at the men in black, causing their hearts to skip a beat out of terror.

"There's no way I can forgive or hand you over to the association! They would only send you to sky prison for your crimes, treating you with food and women if you manage to complete missions for them, letting you enjoy a life better than a normal person! How could I allow that?! Scums like you should pay for the tragic death of your victims with death! And I will make sure of that! Hahahahahaha!"

As his laugh echoes in their ears, they felt their hearts jumping out of their chest in terror.

"Run for your lives!" Knife said, turning around to run away.

Many men in black followed after him in tow.

An instant after they started to run away, Elliot's voice sounded in their ears.

"There is a reason why I baited all of you here, none of you are leaving this place alive, not on my watch!"

Elliot raised one of his hands, shouting out the keywords to summon his loyal slaves.

"Come forth! My army of undead!"

Right after those words left his mouth, several monsters appeared around him, glaring daggers at the back of the people running away from their master, saliva running down their mouths.

"Hungry, aren't you? Meals right in front of you guys. Go and feast on their flesh!" Elliot said while smiling eerily.

AWOOO

AWOOO

AWOOO

The shades howled out loud, rushing towards the enemies on all four, catching up to them after a few moments, and then pouncing on them, forcing them onto the ground, immobilizing them.

"Get off me!" Knife said, conjuring a dark dagger and stabbing it into the neck of the monster on top of him.

To his dismay, the monster on top of him didn't feel an ounce of pain from his sure-kill attack, much less die out of it, and it howled to the skies before sinking its knife-like teeth and sharp claws into his flesh, killing him, just like what the other undead did to their preys.

After killing them, the undead slaves started to feast on their flesh, devouring them whole under the eyes of Curtis, Lisa, the remaining men in black, and the sadistic low-key crazy Elliot.

"What should we do?"

"How do we make it out alive from this situation?!

"Attack his girl. She is weak and we can take her as a hostage to threaten him and get out of this place alive to live to see another day," one of the men in black said, intending to take Lisa as hostage.

Elliot's eyes twitched in annoyance, wondering whether they think he can't hear them or that he won't do anything against them.

"Do you think I am easy to bully?!" Lisa shouted angrily, conjuring sharp spikes and hurling them towards the men in black.

The spears managed to hurt a few men in black, taking them down where they stood, but the rest of them evaded and shattered them, rushing towards her.

"That's so stupid of you guys," Elliot said, sounding disappointed.

<-500 units of the essence of life>

<Remaining essence of life 900>

His eyes brightened up in a golden glow as the profound image of an unbelievably large snake with three triangular heads popped up in his mind. At the same time, in the real world, the tentacles connected to his back twirled around each other, blending into the shape of a giant python with three heads.

"Swallow them alive! Make sure none of them leave this place alive," Elliot said, commanding the golden snake to end the lives of the men in black.

The golden snake that was no less several dozen meters taller than Elliot nodded its head before shooting towards the nearest men in black who have nearly reached Lisa, catching up to him in the very next split of a second, opening its jaw and swallowing him all.

Then, it defensively coiled around Lisa, protecting her from all four sides while looking down at the remaining men in black.

The men in black shivered under its gaze, unable to understand how such an existence has suddenly appeared in the alley.

They dropped to their knees as they were unable to endure the pressuring aura emitting out of its gaze.

The three-headed snake then pounced on them, swallowing them whole, killing several at a time.
