The sight in front of him was just that horrific.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, his mind instantly rejected what he was witnessing, tying it to a nightmare his transformation had caused. Oh, he damned wished it was one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet reality was often disappointing, if not all the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sight in front of him was not a nightmare. Rea was dead, her headless body still twitching in front of him, as if even in her death... the God-Touched knew how to cling tightly to life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, there was this strange belief inside Kaden that told him that it was not over. Rea could still be revived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before his thoughts led him towards that direction, something snapped inside his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"KADEN!\" Reditha billowed and instantly appeared on her own, her bloody figure holding her sword shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She blocked the attack of the bear, while Blanche exploded outward, appearing in the sky with her blazing pale Phoenix’s form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes were smouldering ashes of anger and pain, looking at her master kneeling like a ball, his eyes transfixed, lost and even more, on the corpse of Rea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stretched her mouth, screeching with all the strength of her throat. Dozens of suns spawned from the sky — painting it into an immaculate white horror — then plummeted down mercilessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reditha moved like the vessel of death — with efficiency beyond understanding. She was using her own body better than Kaden himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The appearance of the two new opponents was not lost on the two fighting factions. However, strangely — or maybe not — nothing changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their madness was palpable — undulating all around in a vicious stream of black liquid coursing through unseen veins — not caring about anything else but killing whatever was in front of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blanche and Reditha then created a wide circle with Kaden and Rea as the center, trying to fend off the threats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the beginning they succeeded quite fairly, but the two immediately realized the dreadfulness of the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their opponents were beings with unbelievable strength. And if they wished to protect Kaden from even dragons and other gigantic snakes, added to that Herculean humans with war-axes enough to fatally wound them...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...the two companions knew they were risking their own bloody lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet they said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They neither complained nor talked. They simply hardened their eyes, and went head on, bearing ghastly wounds in the process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They just needed to hold off for a moment, the two thought in eerie sync, knowing that Kaden would soon return to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’His Will!’ Reditha thought as she sidestepped to the left, escaping by a hair’s breadth the spear-like claw of a mangled beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Kaden’s Will is strong! He won’t—!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t manage to finish her words as a punch cracked her jaw, making her spin. Her lower jaw fell down. She snarled in anger, counterattacking in the same motion, driving the sword inside the beast’s flank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The battle raged on, and Kaden, protected by his two companions, was still lost. But Reditha was right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Will was high, and after a near minute of daze and confusion and twisted shock, the man slowly but surely regained himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Rea... is dead.’ Kaden whispered inwardly as he slowly crawled on the horrific ground rotten with horror, going towards the head of Rea drenched red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That sentence repeated itself nonstop, threatening to drown him into a pain he only felt one time. That pain he never wanted to feel again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took the head of Rea, cradled it within his arm with care, and almost broke down again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still now, even in death, her face was one of relief. As if seeing him wake up — seeing him witnessing her death — brought her a kind of twisted joy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was sickening yet it was undoubtedly Rea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden, by now, understood her more than the woman herself realized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew how his fiancée was, and that knowledge coupled with how she died sent a hot fire of anger bursting through his whole body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His aura was erupting, crackling and drowning around him in wisps of emptiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took the head of Rea and put it beside the headless corpse — just like normal — and got up onto his two feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was so focused on his anger and sadness that he didn’t notice his left eye was crying blood; but also that the body of Rea was subtly glowing a faint, but intense grey light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden wondered for a moment if he should kill himself, but he was past that state of deliberate death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he was going to die, he was going to do so by giving everything he could. So he took a deep breath, feeling the second core — True Soul Core — pulsing inside of him like a beating heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was not fully aware yet of the benefit of this core, but Kaden let his instincts completely guide him at that instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I will die.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden instantly knew, looking at the battling monsters around him. Even with his current strength, he knew for a fact that he would die if he fought these monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His perception was accurate, and the cold familiar sense of death grabbing his insides was ever so ubiquitous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would have a chance to escape with his power if he decided so, but not to win.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet it hardly mattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside his mind, the only thing that replayed itself was the headless body of Rea and her relaxed expression as she died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so it was with that image that fueled his anger notch by notch until Kaden’s body could no longer be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An overwhelming crimson-black aura detonated from his body, bloating the whole bloody war landscape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, everyone stopped their battles, snapping their heads towards him, their eyes filled with madness holding a kind of... recognition?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it was fleeting, as if the madness inside of them was too much, robbing them of any rational thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaden didn’t care either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come back.\" He ordered, voice reverberating all around, and Reditha disappeared from the battlefield, appearing inside his right grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stretched his left arm, and pale light bled through the space, swirling around it. The swirls and twists continued until a katana appeared — white and sleek, shimmering and crying like a living thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was his first time, yet Kaden used soul energy to create a sword as easily as breathing. It was one worthy of a moment of awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Kaden was no longer Kaden at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was Death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Death has a role to fulfill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Need my help, sweetie?\" Blanche asked, flying high above, her body dripping blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hell.\" Kaden said, as his body pulsed, seeing his opponents roaring, running towards him with greater zeal than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They looked especially eager to kill him. Especially the Shapeshifters, the name Kaden decided to call them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Make this Hell.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blanche’s body instantly burned, hotter yet dimmer, \"As you will, Prometheus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clicked his finger, creating a barrier around Rea without looking, and immediately ripped through the battlefield in a straight line, creating a mess of blood and flesh in his wake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon enough, a third party appeared in a battlefield of two. The previous land became hell on earth, as fire almost as hot as a sun writhed, swirled, devoured all over the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Shapeshifters were screaming, the death-wearing cloaks were screeching, the blood controllers were melting, the humongous war-born humans riddled with tattoos were singing while dying...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only one being was moving freely, harvesting the lives and souls of all in front of his path with merciless precision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was The Harvester. He was Death and his heralds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That day, all of them were unleashed through him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>—End of Chapter 444—\u003C\u002Fp>",1326,"2026-06-03T10:53:47.503Z",1,"novelbin.me","56a3456653b42cb9caf42b3f9c5a9c9715b5ca742573b3019374a8d786bd1ca3","killed-me-now-i-have-your-power-chapter-445","killed-me-now-i-have-your-power-chapter-443",481,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fkilled-me-now-i-have-your-power-cover.jpg"]
