Heaven Destroyer

Chapter 23: If You are a Demon, Let Me Become a Demoness.

The water arrow landed on the black shield, which just formed around Birdy. The arrow directly went inside. A mocking arc appeared on the corner of turtle's lips. Still, as he was about to speak, the dark shield disappeared, and Birdy revealed herself without any traces of injury.

It appeared the shield of death energy devoured an arrow.

The turtle spirit looked at the Birdy in shock, spoke in a stammering voice, "Wh-what was th-that?"

"Heh? You are too early to know about that kid," Birdy mocked, "If I am not wrong, you were born not long ago; and don't have much knowledge about magic and spells. You were able to comprehend a water spell, which is already very promising."

Turtle trembled as it heard Birdy's mocking voice; she was right, it's been only a few years from turtle's birth, and he didn't have the knowledge as vast as Birdy.

Birdy flapped her wings and reached in front of the turtle spirit in a blink.

"Please, forgiv." When turtle realized, he was in a tight spot; he tried to beg for mercy, but before he could finish his sentence, the turtle's body immediately devoured by black death-like energy. In just a matter of a few seconds, the turtles' body became one with death energy. Without delaying anymore, Birdy absorbed all the death energy inside her body along with the turtle's spirit.

Immediately, the transformation started to take place.

Birdy's body, which was white as the milk, started to show signs of blue color on its body, and her body grew at least by one fold.

Ayaan, standing not far away, had an expression like a statue, he was frozen by shock at a single place.

'What's going on?'

'How Birdy could use death element?'

'Isn't she a spirit of the library?'

'When she started to practice death element?'

Instantly, many questions appeared inside his head, but he suppressed them and turned towards the golden egg, which was lying at the center of the platform.

Without hesitation, Ayaan walked towards the egg.

As he set his foot on the stage, the egg started to reverberate. Slowly, the vibration spread over the whole stage.

Before Ayaan could assess the situation, the golden egg started to hop in the middle of the air. Without giving him any time to react, egg shot towards him.

Ayaan tried to dodge it but failed miserably; But when egg hit his body, no pain appeared. Confused, he opened his eyes but was unable to find an egg, which was about to hit his body.

Without asking anything, he closed his eyes and tried to find it inside his body. At the moment, Ayaan was able to take a glimpse of the egg, which slowly melted with his consciousness and faded without leaving any trace.

"Beep!"

"Beep!"

Ding: Lost part of the System acquired.

Ding: System is upgrading....

It didn't take long for the series of notification to resound in his head. Ayaan felt the frisson of excitement the moment he heard ding sound in his head.

He opened his eyes and found and looked around but failed to find Birdy.

"No need to search for me, I am already inside you. I can't stay outside the body of the host for much longer." A weak voice of Birdy echoed inside his head.

Ayaan frowned as he heard his voice. Why is she sounds weak? He found something amiss about this situation.

"What is happening? Why you sound weak? You didn't even use much energy when fought with that turtle spirit." Ayaan asked with a grim expression.

"Alas, I am the spirit of the magic library, an essential part, and for completing its update, I need to become one with it. Previously, I didn't know the meaning of one with system means, but now I have a clear understanding of the situation." Birdy replied severely, "After assimilating with the magic library, there won't be me anymore because I will become the system itself."

Ayaan was standing frozen at the same place. A shocked expression was plastered on his face. He always thought Birdy won't go anywhere and always treated her as his kin, but he again left alone in the end.

Suddenly, Ayaan's head started to hurt, and a bunch of information began to appear inside his head, but he never paid any attention to it. His mind already occupied by something else.

"Take it as my parting gift to you." It was the last sentence he heard.

Abruptly, a sense of loneliness creeped out in his heart, and tears fell from his eyes. Alone--he was again alone, no one to care, and no one to rely on.

It's been almost four hours since Ayaan was gone. Rebecca was still sitting by the support of a rock at the side while continuously humming to lessen her boredom.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of footsteps and looked in front of her. The moment she spotted Ayaan, a pleasant smile appeared on her face, but suddenly she frowned.

Ayaan was walking like a zombie, and it seems there was no life left inside his body. Soon, he reached Rebecca but didn't stop and continued to walk towards the exit of the cavern.

"Ayaan!" Rebecca shouted his name, with some worry hidden in her voice, and her voice echoed inside the whole cave.

An abrupt shout immediately stopped Ayaan. He turned towards Rebecca, and quickly, his lifeless eyes flashed, but suddenly, he remembered something, and both eyes again lost their shine and became grey and dull.

Rebecca saw his lifeless eyes, and bad omen appeared inside her heart. Without thinking, she walked towards him and stood face to face.

"What happened to you?' she asked with a grim expression.

No reply.

Without replying, Ayaan again started to walk towards the exit.

"Where are you going?" She asked severely, immediately held his hand tightly.

This time Ayaan looked directly in his eyes and replied without expression in a cold tone, "Why you care?"

Rebecca left stunned by his reply. Yes, why she cared about him? Rebecca asked herself. She already knew the answer but always denied. She looked at the back of the lonely figure, which was about to fade and dashed towards him.

"Thud~"

Suddenly, Ayaan felt a tight hug from behind. And when he turned to look, a beautiful countenance of Rebecca appeared in front of him.

Rebecca looked at him with wet eyes and again hugged him tightly. She placed her head on his shoulder and asked with a gentle voice, "What happened to you? You can always share it with me."

"Why should I share with you anything? You will also one day leave me eventually like others." Ayaan was emotionally unstable and spat out the information. Rebecca heard and found the crux of the problem, but she didn't know what happened inside the tunnel, and she didn't want to know anyway.

"So, you think I will leave you, and that's why you are doing this?" Rebecca asked gently, while her head was still on Ayaan's shoulder.

Ayaan knew what's going on and was surprised by her actions. He never thought she would fell for him one day. He didn't know much about her, but it was certain that her background wasn't ordinary, a girl like her fell for someone like him.

But he forgot one thing, Noor also wasn't any ordinary girl but still fell for him.

"You don't know the truth about me, after knowing, you will also leave me eventually, or even try to kill me," Ayaan spoke with his icy cold tone, but Rebecca didn't back down.

"I don't care any truth about you, I know one thing..." She looked at his cold face and continued with her soothing voice, "...I love you."

At last, she confessed what was in her heart and waited for Ayaan's reply.

"What would you do if I tell you I am a demon," Ayaan asked her with a grim face and fixed his gaze at her.

A surprised expression appeared on her face but suddenly replaced by a gentle smile.

Rebecca looked at him and suddenly placed her lips on his. Ayaan tried to dodge, but the distance between them was just about a few inches, and Rebecca took full advantage of the situation.

After kissing, Rebecca looked in his dazed eyes, which were still filled with shock from the sudden turn of event, before replying to him with a grim expression, "If you are a demon, let me become a demoness."

Suddenly, Rebecca maintained some distance from him, and a blue fire started to burn all over her body.
