Chapter: 169

They all began to kill the four leeches, while Jay sent Blue to kill the escaping one.

“Not gonna happen, bitch.” Jay was still pissed off, covered in slime as he fought like a mad man.

He wasn’t going to let a single one get away, especially after seeing the devilish grin on the leech queens face.

Two leeches died along with the escaping one, leaving two more alive. Again, one tried to flee, but it was promplty killed by Anya and Blue.

The last one couldn’t do anything as it too fell to the sword – though Jay still didn’t get any exp.

“Hmm… Anya, the light over here please.” she brought the luminous orb over, quickly adding more mana to make it a little brighter.

He looked over the five corpses they had just slain. It was almost invisible, but a small slime trail had left one of the corpses. Jay followed the slime trail until he found what he was looking for.

A tiny red leech was squirming away.


A tiny red leech was squirming away, it was short and fat though was still surprisingly quick.

Jay smiled, his guess was correct as he jumped over to it.

It tried to squirm a little faster after it realised it had been found.

Jay lifted his foot over it, lightly pressing against the leech to stop it from squirming away, rolling it into a ball with his foot. It started doing tiny screeching sounds as it was trapped.

With a placid, peaceful smile, Jay said two words.

“It’s over.”

He then raised his foot up high and stomped down, twisting his foot on it, forming a red paste, its body splattering across the ground. Jay was already covered in filth so he didn’t care about getting more on the bottom of his shoe.

Goo was squirting out from under his shoe while an evil grin appeared on Jay’s face, getting bigger as he twisted his heel on it, finally getting revenge for what the leech did to him.

“Finally. It’s over. Sneaky little parasite.” he said as he stepped off the leeches corpse and rubbed his shoe on a nearby rock. He showed no remorse at killing someone who had clearly lost their humanity. He even enjoyed killing it after it covered him in slime, not to mention what it did to the hamlet – swallowing him made it personal.

With a sigh he sat down, mentally and physically exhausted after everything that just happened.

“That could’ve been me… I wonder what happened to turn her into such a murderous monster… was she like that before or did her class begin to change her thoughts…” Jay had furrowed brows as he thought to himself.

“What’s going to stop me from becoming like that? We all have the potential to become monsters, but she went ahead with it…”.

“Are my thoughts beginning to change too?” he wondered, his thoughts then drifting to his book.

“The book seems to be logical, maybe it can keep me centred, grounded in reality. Perhaps my book seems to help to keep me normal…” he thought.

“The book seems to be made to prepare a mind for eternity; an immortal body requires an immortal mind, lest it sink into corruption. Hmm… I wonder if even a little bit of corruption in the mind, spread across an eternity, can warp and twist even the most pure minded people into demons.”
