On his knees with a corrosive arrow in his chest was Callias, the soldiers all across the battlefield froze in fear as my killing intent and aura exploded out of me. They regained themselves, and started running at our front line again, a soldier made it to me as I was walking towards the injured Callias, I started using blood magic to heal him as fast as I could. I gripped his throat as I froze him using blood magic, my eyes starting to twitch once again, and in my hand against his throat an ice dagger formed, killing him.

I killed another, and another, pushed one of my men to the ground, and when I finally made it to Callias, it was too late. He sat there on his knees, his eyes were open, but he was not moving at all, that was because a second corrosive arrow was in him, but this one had hit his heart.

The anger in me grew, my aura darkened, my mind went blank with rage.

Callias was dead.

The Alacryans around me blew up, and like a switch flicked back on in my mind, the carnage and death, became enjoyable. I shot into their force, conjuring a sword, swinging it, and as I did that, ice spears grew out of the ground, impaling countless soldiers.

I killed another. "Hahhaa." I laughed conjuring two ice daggers in my hand, slitting the throat of another, blood ripped apart a man screaming in agony. Mana arrows came down near me, killing the ones I didn't get to yet.

My heart was racing, my eyes were twitching, the blood circling me shot in every direction, ripping through the flesh of all the Alacryans in came into contact with. A fork made from fire collided with my leg, causing me to fall to one knee, the fork disappeared, I closed the wound as my blood ran down to the ground, and got up to my feet.

"Hah." I tilted my head at an Alacryan looking at me. "What?" He exploded into chunks as I ripped his blood out, his ear went flying past me, causing me to laugh more. "Haha." I swung my one dagger, slicing through another soldier, slit the throat of the person next to him.

I threw both daggers, killing two people, then started walking through the force, killing anyone who got close by pulling their blood out of them, and conjuring spears out of the ground, killing multiple at a time by impaling them.

The shields were just running around at this point, they didn't have weapons, nor magic powers anymore, they couldn't do anything near me except throw punches. I waved my arm to my right, spears and blood flew in all directions, I swung my arm to the left, doing the same thing, killing dozens and dozens at a time as my mind had one thought.

Kill them all.

"Hahaha." I laughed, gripping a soldier's neck and throwing him into another, then impaled them both on one spear. I looked up at Sylvie, she was staring at me in horror, it doesn't matter anymore, I'm letting go.

A sword came down on me, missed as I moved out of the way, sent a punch into his chest, shooting ice out of my knuckles in the process. The soldier fell on to his knee's dead, but I sent one more mana reinforced punch into his face, sending his body to the ground.

The soldiers around me were giving up hope, both my hands were bloody, a scythe of wind came towards my neck, I took a slow step to the side, and allowed it to go past me. I found the person who sent the spell, vanished, and appeared before her. "Stop, do---" Her pleads were cut short as her blood came out of her throat, and into my hand, then I redirected it into another soldier's chest.

A spell came for the back of my head, I ducked, spun, killed another man, sidestepped an attack, grew a spear into between a man's legs, and watched as it came out of the top of his head. "Haha." I pointed at it as I looked at a group of soldiers scared to head my way. "You see what happened?"
