I Just Inherited The Arcane Emperor's Legacy

The previous time he lost control, he blacked out for a split second. But this time, he was completely aware of what was happening.

The aura in his body started boiling along with his blood. They quickly circulated around his body while also seeping out. Strands of blood-red aura rose into the air to form a gigantic spear. His hand rose and his own spear flew into the air.

This spear joined the massive one above his head while the aura kept making that one larger. In two seconds, the weapon was complete. It was a 20-meter-long spear that emitted a bloody aura that made the Spade Queen shudder.

She backed away instantly and tried to run away. There was no way she would be able to face the Blood God by herself.

As she was flying away from him, he flicked his arm. The spear flew at her with incredible speed, homing toward her with every intention to kill. She looked back only to find that the spear was right in front of her. 

The tongue of the blade tore through the soft armor she was wearing like it was butter and tore through her skin. As it did that, the aura around it exploded outward and entered her body.

The remaining spear dug out of her back and kept flying forward, dragging her body with it. Once it was past half the army, the spear curved to the left and lodged itself onto the sides of the mountains.

All the soldiers could see one of their commanders plastered to the walls of the mountains, as could the Bandit King. He had rushed outside just in time to see this happen. The discussion he had with Dmitri only made him late.

He rushed to the body as the spear dug itself out of the body. As it did that, the blood and aura from her body seemed to be pulled out by it and converged into a small orb. With the orb, the spear flew back to Leo.

The Bandit King seemed unconcerned about the spear and rushed to catch her body before it fell to the ground. Once he caught her, he took a look at the body in his hands.

The limp body had no hints of warmth left in it. The lifeless face was pale, drained of all its blood. The Spade Queen's eyes were still open, showing her expression of horror from seeing the Blood God and her mouth was slightly open from the shock.

He closed his eyes and turned away, unable to look at her. His right hand moved to close her eyes. Once he set her body down carefully on the ground, he faced the direction the spear flew in. His eyes contained a deep hatred in them.

Back at the rear end of the army, the two generals were wreaking havoc. Their two dragons were unleashed upon their enemies once they fully accumulated their power. That single attack wiped out 2000 soldiers, clearing out the path for them to walk forward.

Leo stepped forward onto the corpses and held out his hand. His spear rushed forward and slid into it while the orb was caught by his left. He took a momentary glance at the orb before consuming it.

The minute he did, the aura inside burst into a frenzy inside his body. It was full of power and seemed uncontrollable for a second, but his aura quickly subdued it and forcefully brought it into his dantian.

Of course, all of this was being done by the body itself while Leo had a front-row ticket with the experience of every sense. He could not only see but also feel what was happening. He thought it was nothing bad when he just saw the spear kill the woman, but once that happened, something changed.

After killing the woman and getting the spear and orb back, he realized something was wrong. The orb filled with blood aura seemed very weird. The energy inside it almost seemed as if it was squirming like it was alive. Other than that, it looked like a normal aura pill and he wouldn't have paid it any mind if he didn't know its source. 

He realized what was wrong once his body consumed the orb. The aura inside was still someone else's. In fact, it wasn't just aura. There also seemed to be another kind of energy that he didn't yet fully understand. 

Consuming it made him stronger, but it made an emotion in him feel a little out of control. The minute he made the new aura his, the urge to kill more people grew inside him. 

As he walked through the corpses, his hand was held out. The aura and blood inside them flew out as well. This was split into three parts - one for him and the other two for the people who actually did the killing.

When he took this aura, the urge intensified. He suddenly felt like killing more people. If he was given back control over the body, he wouldn't stop even if he could. His mind was starting to be blinded a little by the artificial urge that the orbs created.I think you should take a look at

Suddenly, he heard a huge roar. In the distance, there was a man approaching him while deeply bellowing. He seemed very upset to see Leo.

"Blood God! Watch me kill you!" He shouted. Right behind him, Dmitri was flying toward him too.

They both got to where Leo was just as he regained control over his body. Leo turned to the two generals.

"Get to the other 7th Circle Aura Knights here and help the other general finish them off. I will take care of this man," he said.

As he turned back, he noticed that the person he was facing was ready to kill him. It was the Bandit King, but he didn't know that yet. The Bandit King took out a golden bell from his ring. The bell immediately expanded into a huge structure that towered over him, threatening to crush him.

The bell with a 20-meter diameter dropped onto him, crushing the edges of the nearby mountainsides as it did. He became trapped inside the bell while still being in control of his body.

The clapper inside the bell automatically moved to hit the inner wall, creating a loud sound. The shock waves from the impact tried to push him away, but he quickly put up a layer of aura around himself to defend against the force.

As this happened, the Bandit King roared and tried to pull out another treasure. While the bell stopped the Blood God from escaping, it wouldn't be able to harm a man of that caliber. He lifted the bell, revealing the Blood God who was shielding himself from the sound waves. The minute the bell was lifted, the Bandit King readied himself to throw an emerald harpoon at him.

However, a sword slash coming his way made him dodge in the air, making him unable to aim the harpoon in time. He looked at the origin of the slash, only to find Dmitri.

"Death Bringer! What does this mean?" He roared in anger.

Dmitri smiled and landed beside Leo. 

"As the Fire King said, I am the Blood God's most trusted aid. Why would anyone in their right mind believe that I betrayed him?" He turned to Leo. "I am certain that you are unharmed, but I am compelled to ask. Are you okay, my liege?"

"I am fine, Dmitri. Your support is appreciated," Leo said. He was enjoying the control he got back over his body, but now he had to figure out how to attack the enemy.

The only attack he could try to attempt was the blood spear that he previously threw at the lady previously. It wasn't a bad option since it killed the 7th Circle Aura Knight in a single attack. He also had Dmitri's support so it wouldn't be very hard to kill the enemy.

"Why do you seem so upset? I just killed one of your underlings. If what Dmitri said was right about your army, then it should be the Spade Queen that I killed. Why would that make you behave this violently?" Leo asked with curiosity.

The Bandit King didn't respond to the statement, but his body showed a lot. His face was shaking with anger and it seemed to take all of his strength to control himself from impulsively attacking the two.

"When the Fire King and the Fire Queen learn of your betrayal, you will be hunted throughout the lands, Death Bringer. As will you, Blood God! The Spade Queen's father is a Peak-Stage 8th Circle Aura Knight, while my kingdom has an 8th Circle Aura Knight as well. The minute you set foot out of this battlefield, you are dead meat!"

Dmitri laughed. "They will learn of our scheme and might choose to flee. What difference does that make though? We were aware that the Fire Kingdom had a 9th Circle Aura Knight. So do all the kingdoms in the Elementals. But that doesn't change our ambitions.  Once we kill all of you, both of us will be able to get to that stage.

As for why he is that angry, I believe it is because he is in a personal relationship with the Spade Queen. It seems to be illicit since the Spade Queen is betrothed to another one of the Spade Kingdom," he said.

"Well, that is not our concern. Let us finish off this person and move to the army. Having that many people to kill makes me excited," Leo said while having a perverted smile.
