Aleshia started piling up the unconscious goblins together. This will make it easier for Lawrend to kill them using only one spell.
A few minutes later, the goblins were all lumped together into one big pile.
"Young Master, use your spell."
Aleshia walked to the side to make way for Lawrend. Lawrend looked at the pile of goblins and chanted his spell without thinking too much into it.
"O' great, Amber, be my electron and shock my enemies, Shock Arc!"
Lawrend once again saw the violet electric mana inside him gather into his outstretched hand. It was like a massive dam was unleashed when the spell reached its peak.
BOOOM!!
It was the sound of an explosion that Lawrend has never heard before. The superheated blood of the goblins exploded together, creating a grand explosion that flung their bodies high up into the air.
Lawrend jumped in fright as he was very close to the explosion. His ears started ringing, and he couldn't hear anything. Instead, he watched as blood and various body parts fell from the sky.
"BLEUURGH"
It was so gory that Lawrend immediately puked his guts out. It was his first time seeing something so bloody and disgusting for Lawrend, who had never left the city ever since he was born.
Lawrend looked at the scattered mess all around him. He was shaking all over as he kept turning around and finding more and more disturbing things around him.
"I… I… What have I done?"
Lawrend's eyes were bloodshot and unfocused. He looked at his hands in disbelief. He turned his head to look at Aleshia, who was splattered all over. Then he looked down at his body and saw that his clothes were red all over.
"B-blood… I…"
Lawrend grasped at his own clothes, trying to remove the stains. He kept repeating it as he slowly devolved into madness.
Aleshia watched as Lawrend slowly turned crazy. His eyes were full of disbelief and madness.
"Young Master!"
Aleshia tried to call out to him, but it was useless. Lawrend's ears were still ringing, and his focus was entirely on himself.
"Oh no, oh no, oh no!! What did I do!?"
Lawrend clutched at his own neck. The guilt of killing the goblins hit him. Turning him crazy. They looked just like children, and when their body parts were scattered all around him, it was even more so disturbing to look at.
"Young Master!!"
Aleshia ran towards him and took him into an embrace. Even for an assassin like her, it was hard to see someone devolve into madness right in front of her. As there was an uneasy feeling coming from her heart, she could only take him into her embrace to ease that uneasy feeling.
"I… I killed… I killed people… They are kids…"
Lawrend kept murmuring to himself. He didn't even notice that he was already being pressed hard into Aleshia's chest.
"No, Young Master. They are goblins. They are not people."
Aleshia spoke to Lawrend as she continued embracing him in comfort. Lawrend couldn't hear her even after the ringing in his ears had passed.
The only thing in Lawrend's mind right now was the scattered body parts all around him. He gazed straight into one, and his mind continued turning into a mess.
Aleshia saw that Lawrend kept looking, and she turned his head towards her chest. But, instead of calming down, Lawrend kept murmuring to himself for a while before he finally fell unconscious.
Aleshia caught him into her arms when Lawrend fell down like a ragdoll.
"Young Master…"
Aleshia looked straight into Lawrend's pained unconscious face and couldn't help but bite her lips.
"I'm sorry… I'm sorry that I forgot you never experienced gore before."
Aleshia used her hand to caress Lawrend's forehead. She was just like a mother taking care of her son.
Aleshia felt pain from the bottom of her heart. She could have killed them much more humanely with her dagger, but instead, she opted to use Lawrend's spell.
It wasn't because she was lazy. But rather, it was because she wanted to see how powerful the spell was and to make good use of it. Now, Lawrend has suffered the consequences of her actions. Traumatized by the events of today.
The moment Lawrend fell unconscious, a faint memory flickered inside him. It replayed as a dream without his control.
A handsome man whose body has no similarity to Lawrend whatsoever appeared in a dark space. His face was blurred as if to hide his identity. There was no light besides the faint glow coming from his body.
"Where am I? Did I die? I remember being shot in the head…"
The handsome man looked around before touching his forehead. The gunshot wound that he was expecting was not there. He looked down at his body and saw that he was still wearing the same clothes he wore before he was shot— The same thick clothes to guard against the cold weather.
"Hello? Is anyone there?"
The handsome man called out to the darkness around him.
A bright dot of light appeared in front of him and flickered just like a star in the night sky. The light grew bigger and bigger before it faded away. What appeared in front of him was a heavenly woman.
Her face was just like the sculpture made of a skillful artisan. Her curvy body exudes an otherworldly feeling. There was a feeling of confidence and grace around her as if the whole universe is beneath her notice.
"Young mortal, welcome to my universe."
The unknown woman smiled at him in amusement. It was like something about this event was funny to her.
"Welcome? Um, who are you?"
The handsome man felt desire burn inside him as he looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. She was the very definition of a beauty that could topple nations. He could even bet that she would easily overshadow all of the beautiful actresses in his world if she was there.
"I am God."
The woman replied as the amusing smile was still plastered on her face.
