What’s going on?\" Rea asked in a worried tone, her arms grasping the bleeding Kaden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The event happened so fast and so abruptly that she felt jarred, her thoughts churning in dizzying spirals at the sight of Kaden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was on the floor, his body pale as if devoid of blood. Something that wouldn’t surprise Rea, for the ground beneath them had become a puddle of crimson blood faster than thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was red. And with her grey clothes, she looked like a bride witnessing the murder of her husband on her wedding day. Her arms, legs, and chest all tainted by the blood spluttering out from Kaden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was not only that, Kaden’s lips were shaking nonstop, as if caught by cold, his mouth opening and closing in failed attempts to say something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know!\" Einar answered, appearing in a small pixie-like version of herself, watching Kaden’s state with frowned eyebrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You need to first calm down, my Rea! Everything happened so fast I barely saw anything.\" She paused, staring at Rea’s face, then, \"And the only thing I noticed before all of this was him looking at the painting!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\" Rea’s thoughts halted abruptly, and then reason and calmness began to bathe her mind, making her remember a little bit more clearly the events.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It’s true,’ she thought, painfully trying to keep the warmth of Kaden’s body, ’he fell after seeing the painting. But why?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The answer to that question eluded Rea. And seeing the state of Kaden, she knew that she had no time to ponder about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden was dying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That thought sent her heart in a direction she had never imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a world where she had cut any possible contact with her past and family; deciding it was better to be alone, for going against a goddess was something even she didn’t fully grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that type of world where she was hollow in every sense of the term, only Kaden was the link to her past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the only one that made her still recall that she had not always been this type of being. One that could kill and torture while enjoying the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, she hated to admit it... but Kaden made her feel comfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of these complex and contradictory thoughts flashed inside her mind, making her dizzy. But all of these thoughts boiled down into one single result...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I don’t want you to die, Kaden.’ Rea thought, biting her lower lip so hard blood swelled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked deeper at Kaden, seeing black lines slither all over his body. She began to think of a way to help him; to at least keep him alive until a true decision came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Blood!\" Einar proposed, pulling Rea out of her endless thoughts, \"Give him blood and also enhance his body with your fear! It might help!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment these words registered inside her mind, Rea was already acting, even without being aware of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A grey dagger with rings at its edge appeared out of one of her rings. With no hesitation in her red eyes, she slashed the veins of her left wrist — she winced — blood gushing out in a cascade, gurgling, foaming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rapidly leaned over, forcefully opening Kaden’s mouth and made him drink her blood. At the same time, she enhanced her blood itself, making sure Kaden regenerated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of this happened so fast that only after the deed was done did Rea realize what she had done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet she didn’t regret it. She continued to let her blood flow out, not minding the slow weakness creeping into her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, she would not hold for too long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, a whole different kind of situation was unfolding inside Kaden’s mind. He didn’t know what happened or even what was happening, but Prometheus found himself pulled into a kind of strange dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t know why he knew it was a dream. But he knew. And the strange part of it was that it was not his dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the dream of another being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But who?\" Kaden said, looking around. He found himself in a ruined battlefield, with blood and gore all over the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stench of ruin and death was so profound that even Kaden found himself reeling, barely able to stop himself from puking his stomach out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He steeled his eyes, focusing on the current situation. He could feel his body slowly dying, poisoned by whatever was soaking the hell he found himself in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Divinity, he guessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to get out of here,\" Kaden said, licking his lips slowly, \"now how?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He used his perception, trying to find something that could be a clue. At the same time, he began to walk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His steps made splashing sounds that echoed eerily around. Sometimes he would step into the heart of a strange beast, and other times he would see corpses so mangled that he needed to avert his eyes from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he walked, making sure to keep his perception fully open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, he noticed black-skinned corpses of monsters. He subtly frowned, somehow recognizing these monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then he shook his head and continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden didn’t know how much he walked, but soon enough, he realized it was a useless attempt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The space he was in seemed to turn itself into an infinite circle, as if no matter how much he walked nothing would change and he would go nowhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, he could feel something. At the beginning it was vague, but now he was sure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was being observed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And after walking mindlessly for who knows how long, Kaden succeeded in pinpointing the direction of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine.\" Kaden finally relented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had tried earlier to use his skills, realizing only blood- and death-related skills would work there. His flame of Prometheus was completely useless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn’t need Blanche here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reditha was more than enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He closed his eyes, taking a deep, profound inhale that seemed to suck away all the air around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strange realm around paused, and Kaden’s concentration and focus increased to a ridiculous degree, his head light and hazed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, something flashed through his perception. It was brief, too brief even, but Kaden struck down even faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reditha didn’t need to be wielded. She was a being on her own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So all Kaden needed to do was to share his will and...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>CRACK—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reditha cracked the skull of a black skeleton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden opened his eyes again, exhaling at the same time the breath he had caught in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The steam that escaped his mouth was crimson, tainted with black, and when it touched the air outside,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like fire on oil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chain of explosions thundered across the field of blood, targeting especially all the skeletons that existed around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their number wasten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when all of them became nothing but dust, the reality around him began to shimmer like an illusion being cast down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sight of the battlefield disappeared like a curtain being pulled away, showing a whole different place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden found himself in a crimson world, looking in front of him. There, he found one being chained all over his body. The chains were enormous, colored in different shades and glowing with boundless power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the sight of it made Kaden’s left eye bleed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cursed, using the little power he was accessing, and looked at the chained being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The being’s skin was a deep, boundless black, and behind him skeletal wings framed his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head was lowered, but Kaden didn’t need to see his face to recognize him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he entered this crimson place, something inside of him was shaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a Trait. A trait he had long forgotten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Corrosive Blood is acting.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden sucked in a deep breath as a voice echoed inside his head,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ohohoho! I knew it was you. Oh, Kaden, Kaden, Kaden...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his head and looked at Kaden with a big, eerie smile,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have grown so much, my dear favorite.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden clicked his tongue, lips pressing into a thin line, looking at the chained man with obvious distaste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Nocthar.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—End of Chapter 407—\u003C\u002Fp>",1374,"2026-06-03T10:53:47.503Z",1,"novelbin.me","9d67dfb4aa88c088e4e6e6cb1fb3f6a0e9dbc2f27e9f55a0bbd010ea14010dfe","killed-me-now-i-have-your-power-chapter-408","killed-me-now-i-have-your-power-chapter-406",481,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fkilled-me-now-i-have-your-power-cover.jpg"]
