The monster with a huge body and a huge bloody mouth in a nurse uniform was sent flying away and crashed heavily on the counter.
The solid wooden counter was instantly shattered into pieces. Wood chips splashed everywhere and landed on the painting that was supposed to be used as a publicity piece.
"Hidden in the painting all this while?"
Kieran looked at the struggling monster in shock.
The word 'monster' was very appropriate for the monster.
There were no eyes, ears, or nose, only a bloody mouth, and the fingers on both hands were made up of scalpels.
The muscles on its arms and legs were firm and powerful.
As the man breathed, the muscles pulsed, just like the bright red muscles of a frog when it was being skinned for an electric shock experiment.
Coupled with the strange caved in on her lower abdomen, no one would be able to associate her with the nurse in the portrait.
Of course, no one would have thought that a little girl who seemed to be five or six years old, had blonde hair, blue eyes, and a pure and holy aura around her would be the mastermind behind this monster.
If it wasn't for Kieran's confirmation that a little girl around 5 or 6 years old couldn't reach the height of the window of the iron door, especially when he was being chased and didn't have the time to set up a stool or something, he might have been fooled by the monster.
But now?
The little girl went through the iron door and floated above the monster's head.
His long golden hair turned yellow like weeds, and his eyes, which were as blue as the sea, turned pitch-black. His fair skin, which glowed with light, turned ash-white and green.
She looked like a vengeful ghost.
She was no longer as holy as before.
"Sss, Sss, Sss!
Huu, Huu, Huu! "
The monster hissed like a rattlesnake or the breath of a jackal, staring at Kieran with its black eyes.
A formless deterrent force started to appear.
However, it was useless.
The situation surprised the demon with the girl's face.
It hissed and exhaled in a more hurried manner.
The monster in the nurse uniform immediately stood in front of Kieran. She raised her arms, opened her scalpel palms and rushed towards Kieran.
The man's huge body filled the whole corridor. His scalpel filled hands easily pierced through the walls, drawing five long and thin marks on both sides of the corridor.
Chi, chi!
As he ran, the cutting sound grew louder.
The sand that seeped out from the wall did not land on the ground. Instead …
It flew up into the air!
The evil spirit hovering in the air kept blowing the sand away.
It was like a mini tornado.
Carrying the monster and the sand, it charged towards Kieran.
It looked like it was about to devour Kieran.
Hu!
In the darkness, a dazzling cone-shaped flame appeared out of nowhere.
The scorching flames instantly devoured the monsters, sand, and tornadoes that were charging at them.
There was no room for struggle.
With Kieran's buff, the flame had reached Powerful level, becoming the bane of the monster before him.
In fact, if it wasn't for Kieran feeling a little strange from the mini tornado, he wouldn't even need to use it.
He could kill the monster with just his Transcendence level flame.
Before this, when the monster was sent flying with a single kick, Kieran had already figured out the monster's background.
Other than being able to hide in the portrait, there was nothing else that caught Kieran's attention.
Everything was as Kieran expected. After the monster let out a series of agonizing wails in the flames, it turned into ashes and a Soul Shard fell from the sky.
However, Kieran didn't even bat an eye at the Soul Shard. He dashed towards the demon with the girl's face like an arrow released from a bow.
As soon as the flames appeared, the evil spirit drilled into the wall at the side.
However, it seemed like it had underestimated Kieran's reaction.
A test tube with Kieran was smashed on the wall first.
Pak!
Faint light splashed everywhere as the test tube broke. The evil spirit, who could not dodge in time, crashed into the soaked wall.
Instantly, an agonizing scream was heard.
It was corroded by the strong acid. Thick smoke rose from the demon's body, causing it to fall from the air.
Strike while it's down!
Kieran didn't have the slightest awareness of showing mercy to his enemies.
One after another, the afterimages of his legs continued to kick out, completely enveloping the evil spirit.
…
When the battlelog confirmed the demon's death, Kieran stopped.
Just like the previous monsters, the Evil Spirit turned into ashes when it died.
A Soul Shard also fell into the ashes.
Other than that, there was a picture among the ashes.
In the picture was a little girl with blonde hair and blue eyes with a bright smile.
"A demon that attaches itself to the picture and shows itself in the picture?"
Kieran picked up the Soul Shard and the picture.
In one of the books in Nikorei's study room, there was an emphasis on the special monsters known as the demon.
They weren't humans or animals, but they could transform into humans, animals, or even everyday objects like a comb or a mirror.
The most famous one was the Mirror Devil, which was a kind of demon.
Their abilities were also very strange. It was said that no one had ever recorded all the abilities of a demon.
However, one thing was for sure: the demon had malicious intent towards humans.
The demon was born from the most extreme destructive emotions of humans. It was similar to the beasts, but there were some differences.
The most obvious one was that the demon could be controlled through contracts.
Judging from the demon's behavior, Kieran was sure that the demon before him was controlled by someone.
Otherwise, a low level demon wouldn't be able to play tricks and escape.
Even if it was a failed trick or escape.
One must know that according to their nature, they should be like hungry beasts, constantly attacking humans.
"Controlling the demon?
"He really dares to do anything!"
Kieran muttered to himself.
It was not an easy task to manipulate a dark spirit, a monster born from destructive emotions. Even with the binding of a contract and the binding was only a low-level dark spirit, the manipulator would still be affected and do something crazy and self-destructive.
As for the nature of the sanatorium …
Instinctively, Kieran had a bad feeling about it.
He finally understood why the demon attacked the sanatorium.
What other place would have more patients with self-destructive tendencies than a sanatorium?
With that thought in mind, Kieran picked up the other Soul Shard and sprinted to the left.
However, the moment he opened the iron door, Kieran was stunned.
He quickly retreated without a second thought.
