The coldness of death was like the ice of winter, stabbing straight into Kieran's chest, stirring up the hot blood in his heart.
The cold and heat were opposite, yet the difference was huge.
Devil Kieran grunted heavily and fell to the ground.
The surface of the lava quickly solidified, turning into a plaster shape before shattering into dust, revealing Kieran inside.
Kieran's condition was at its worst at the moment.
Constitution and Spirit authentication kept popping up.
It was a frequency that Kieran had never seen before. He could still see it clearly at first, but as time went by, it became a blur.
It wasn't just these two attributes!
Strength, Agility, Intuition, even skills and equipment became blurry.
It was like a messy code was piled up before Kieran's eyes.
Then, it turned into a gray vortex.
The vortex spun from slow to fast.
A powerful suction force appeared from the core of the vortex, pulling Kieran's body.
Kieran didn't know what would happen if he was sucked in by the vortex.
His instinct told him it wouldn't be something to look forward to.
However, the suction force of the vortex was too strong.
Kieran didn't even have the strength to resist, he was quickly pulled to the front of the vortex.
Just as the vortex was about to devour Kieran, Kieran's talent window suddenly shone with a golden brilliance.
[Weak Point Immunity]!
[Authentication of Superiority]!
Unlike the other attributes, skills and equipment that were blurry, the two attributes were clearly visible under the golden brilliance.
It wasn't just plain clear.
What they represented was …
The hope of life!
The hot blood in his heart that was stirred by the coldness of death boiled again.
The coldness was expelled.
Kieran's sight returned to normal.
Lines of system notifications popped up in his vision.
[Encountered Secondary Malevolent Curse, Constitution authenticated …]
[Encountered Secondary Malevolent Curse, Spirit authenticated …]
[Curse has been detected, Constitution has failed, Extreme True Damage received, Talent 'Watcher – Weak Point Immunity' and 'Watcher – Judgement of Advantage' have priority, Extreme True Damage reduced to Strong True Damage …]

[Encountered High Malevolent Curse Authentication, Spirit Authentication failed. You will be dragged into Death Illusion. Talents' The Warden, Vital Immunity 'and' The Warden, Authentication of Superiority 'have priority, Death Illusion difficulty -1]
…
The words told Kieran exactly how dangerous his situation was just now.
Meanwhile, Kieran felt a chill crawl down his spine when he saw that the Berserker had less than one-tenth of his HP remaining.
Without further hesitation, [Ring of Blessing] shone with [Light of Healing]. It pulsed three times in a row, healing High Damage, Medium Damage, and Light Damage respectively. All of the healing was concentrated on Kieran's body.
After three continuous healing, Kieran's HP was restored to a safe level.
Kieran quickly stood up and looked at Alinda Krely.
The Witch and the Emperor's bloodline owner was howling madly in mid-air.
It was crazy and filled with pain.
"Why do you have two hearts?"
"How can you survive three Malevolent Curses?"
"Aaaaaargh!"
"I won't accept this!"
…
Amidst the howling, Alinda Krely's body started to vanish, similar to her limbs.
The vanishing speed wasn't fast.
It made Alinda Krely feel even more pain.
The pain of her organs being gnawed on was far worse than her limbs.
But the most painful thing was, she had completely lost!
Her greed towards the Emperor's Legacy made her clench her teeth and activate the Malevolent Curse.
She had it all figured out!
Sacrificing her limbs would be enough for her to activate the highest rank Malevolent Curse that she knew.
As for losing her limbs?
The Witch had ways to regrow her limbs, maybe she would have to pay a hefty price but when she thought about the Emperor's Legacy, Alinda Krely couldn't care less.
However, the moment the Malevolent Curse was activated, Alinda Krely realized something was wrong!
Kieran had two hearts!
The Malevolent Curse that targeted Kieran instantly consumed twice as much energy as before.
The first time, the Secondary Malevolent Curse made Alinda Krely lose her arms!
The second time, the Normal Malevolent Curse made Alinda Krely lose her legs!
The third time, the High Malevolent Curse took away Alinda Krely's torso!
The fourth time?
Alinda Krely was sorry, without enough sacrifice, the great existence wouldn't make a move.
"No, no!
I haven't lost yet!
The one who gets the Legacy will be me! "
Alinda Krely, who only had her head left, didn't die.
Feeling the gaze of the great being leaving, she flew at breakneck speed towards the 'legacy' that had almost completely risen from the ground: the corpse of the colossal Beast of Desire.
However, Kieran was faster!
An 8 meter radius spider web with blazing flames fell from the sky, trapping Alinda Krely in the middle of her flight.
The blazing flames and poison started to devour Alinda Krely's remaining life force.
The more fatal thing was, [Mardos Lair]'s [Hell Fiend Shadow] was triggered.
Countless illusions started to invade Alinda Krely's mind.
If it was during normal times, Alinda Krely would be safe and sound.
However, after completing three overburdened sacrifices, the witches and the possessors of the emperor's bloodline had reached a limit.
The hidden monsters in [Hell Fiend Shadow] became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
"Aaaargh!"
A sharp scream later, Alinda Krely's head exploded.
A dark golden book appeared from the spider web.
As if it felt the difference in the spoils of war, the spider pattern on the wristband shook for a while and formed a faint mirage of the Hell Fiend Spider.
The small Hell Fiend Spider appeared on the spider web in a flash.
But in the next moment, the Hell Fiend Spider returned to the gauntlet as if it was frightened. It straightened all the fine hairs on its body and tried its best to widen its body. There was a human-like fear and fear in its compound eyes.
Then, out of Kieran's expectation, the small Hell Fiend Spider turned around and looked at him.
The desire similar to a telepathic communication appeared in Kieran's heart.
It wanted to devour him.
On the other hand, the Beast of Desire, which had been displaying a strong appetite, remained silent.
Not only the Beast of Desire, even the cardinal sins vanished without a trace.
With doubts in his heart, Kieran raised his hand and took the dark golden book from the spider web.
[Discovered skill book: Gezardrake's Sacrificial Spell]
[Detected Mystical Knowledge skill, prerequisite met, learn?]
…
"Sacrificial Spell?
And this name … "
Looking at the skill book's name, Kieran unconsciously thought of that great, formless power.
And Alinda Krely's missing limbs and torso.
Most importantly …
Her limbs and torso that seemed to have been eaten, where did they go in the end?
Kieran, who was never lacking in vigilance at all times, was fond of more rewards but he would never put himself in danger for the sake of it.
Especially the unusual behavior of the Beast of Desire and the cardinal sins.
Kieran's gaze at the skill book in his hand became judgmental.
