Shrouded Seascape

"I-I devoured her…"

Charles was stupefied. Could it be that the Charles in front of him was just an illusion created by Hypnos? There was no way the individual before him was real; otherwise, how could he devour his own daughter?

Even if the other party was another version of himself from another plane, there was no way he could do such a thing.

"I had no choice. The Foundation was too strong, and Hope Island had ended up sinking. I needed enough strength to fight them. Sparkle's flesh, blood, and special abilities are all of the same origin as ours. We can devour her without any losses."

Turbid droplets of liquid were squeezed out of the embedded Charles' roughly over a hundred eyes. He had a grotesque, bizarre appearance, but Charles could see that he was in extreme agony right now.

Charles' heart became filled with fury. His swollen, deformed figure split open, and he pounced on the embedded Charles, frantically devouring the other party's flesh and blood. "You piece of trash! How could you devour even your own daughter?! Are you still human?!"

If a third party were here, they'd witness a wrestle between two nauseating balls of flesh.

The two-dimensional Torments rushed forward, drilling into the merged monstrosity between Charles and Sparkle. The scene quickly descended into chaos.

A toothless mouth appeared on one of the balls of flesh, and it roared, "You're calling me trash?! Then, what are you?! Do you really think that you'd do better than me if you were in my position?!

The embedded Charles' voice no longer sounded ashamed and helpless. He now sounded furious, as if he had gone mad, or perhaps he had long become mad. It was unclear whether his madness was due to staying next to Hypnos for an extended period of time or if he had become mad way before that.

Just then, the embedded Charles exploded into a bloody mist. Then, the embedded Charles' flesh, blood, and organs were instantly connected to each other by the pulsating blood vessels all over Hypnos.

Moments later, the flesh, blood, and organs converged at one point, transforming into a lump of malformed flesh. The two balls of flesh intertwined with each other once again, but then the black crystal chains all over Hypnos made a move.

They wriggled like venomous snakes and wrapped around the balls of flesh. The chains began to burrow into their figures, attempting to drag them into Hypnos' flesh.

Charles suddenly found himself in extreme danger.

"Sparkle! My delicious Sparkle!! I finally caught you!" the embedded Charles roared, sounding madder and madder by the second. Some of the flesh in the ball of flesh began to wither like plants; the flesh had come from Sparkle.

All of a sudden, a huge chunk of deformed flesh merged together, kneading into a massive bright yellow Eye of Edikth. The next moment, however, another eye appeared right next to the Eye of Edikth.

The appearance of both eyes made the confused mixture of flesh and blood resemble a human head. However, the resemblance was fleeting, as the entire head began to deform rapidly under the influence of the Eye of Edikth.

Bones and flesh split, scattered and branched out like tree branches. The nearby spacetime became a bit unstable as spacetime rifts flickered intermittently around them.

The situation couldn't get any more chaotic, but before it could erupt, a beam of gentle sunlight emerged from the cracks in Charles' flesh. It was the power of the Light God and Lily's power.

"Mr. Charles, I'm here to help you!"

Beneath the gentle sunlight, the massive lump of flesh instantly stopped sprouting more flesh and blood. Lily's power wasn't that strong, but it was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Two tentacles burst out of the massive lump of flesh and enveloped the glowing Lily. The tentacles belonged to Sparkle, and her tentacles were instantly imbued with the power of the Light God within Lily.

The Charles from another plane could have attacked Lily, but for some reason, he didn't do so. His multiple mouths twisted and roared like a lunatic, "W-w-what is that?! A mouse?!"

Charles, Sparkle, and Lily worked together to gnaw away at the flesh and blood of the Charles from another plane. Eventually, they completely devoured him. As soon as the Charles from another plane was no more, Charles noticed his own flesh and blood improving by leaps and bounds.

The improvement covered everything—the power of Edikth within him and his control over that power had improved, which undoubtedly gave him a massive power boost.

The two Eye of Edikth on the deformed ball of flesh were under his control as well, and he no longer found it difficult to manifest the eye, unlike before.

Charles was greatly satisfied and overjoyed; he had no idea why he was so happy, but he welcomed the feeling of delight.

The disappearance of the Charles from another plane meant that Charles' special ability of teleportation was no longer under suppression. With a flash of white light, Charles' figure disappeared from Hypnos' colossal form.

The return of Charles' teleportation ability tipped the scales of victory in his favor.

Hypnos' figure was exceptionally large, but its attacks were of little use before enhanced and improved Charles.

The objects on Hypnos' colossal form were teleported away one by one, and more than half of the tubes connected to the islands branching out of its figure were torn off.

The eyes all over Charles were bloodshot, and the bulging veins beneath his distorted skin began to throb like a heart.

Back then, he couldn't even stare at the Divinity before him for an extended period of time, but now, he was about to kill that Divinity.

Hypnos was weak compared to the other Divinities, but he was still a Divinity. The fact that he was about to murder such a powerful existence suffused Charles with emotions too wonderful to describe.

Charles suddenly understood why Anna was so obsessed with power.

Hypnos' colossal form was disappearing chunk after chunk beneath Charles' relentless attacks.

Just then, spacetime rifts manifested all around Charles, and a myriad of gazes shot out of the fissures, sending a shiver down Charles' spine as they all landed on him.

A spacetime rift appeared next to Charles, and the densely packed blood-red eyes beyond the rift opened abruptly, glaring at him. The blood-red eyes were clearly threatening by glaring at him, but that was all they did—glare at him.

Hypnos was severely injured, and it would take Charles no time to dispose of him.

However, Charles immediately stopped his offensive as soon as he saw the densely packed blood-red eyes.

The blood-red eyes belonged to Hypnos—a Hypnos from another plane. He could indeed kill the Hypnos before him, but there was no guarantee that the Hypnos from other planes wouldn't come here and retaliate.

The chaos had kicked up a ton of silt from the seabed, lowering visibility to zero, but both Charles and Hypnos could clearly see each other.

The cogs in Charles' six brains—four of which had spawned beneath the influence of Edikth—turned rapidly, and Charles immediately came up with the most optimal solution.

Charles' body split open, and the blood-red eyeball that Sparkle had brought over popped out of Charles' figure.

Charles' will pervaded the seawater as he said, "Give me what I own, and I'll return to you what you own."

The severely injured Hypnos remained unmoving on the devastated seabed. After a few seconds, a bubble popped out of its wound and floated toward Charles.
