Zico with no hesitation swung his daggers at Mark skillfully. But mark didn't just wait for the daggers to hit him, he dodged each and every one of zico's skillful swings like a mosquito escaping a swat.
Zico was about to swing at mark when mark's nails connected to his throat. When mark was about to dig into it, entity jet kicked mark, barely saving Zico.
Mark moved forward again at an incredible speed to attack, but entity landed a kick to his chest that sent him flying back to the ground.
When Mark was about to get up to attack again, he heard, the words "Sharp spinner!" And a huge dagger serpent materialized. It opened it's mouth wide and attacked mark.
Mark got up and stood infront of the attack, when it was about to hit him, everything ceased to move and mark regained his mind.
'what's going on?' he asked himself. All he remembered was some sort of strange power invading his body.
When he was about to move away of the serpent, he heard a voice he had grown accustomed to now.
"Don't dodge," said the voice.
"Why shouldn't I do that, aknaili?" Mark questioned as he watched the serpent slowly but gradually advance towards him.
"You've finally started reawakening the last wilder of this body," mark was going to ask more questions but got cut off.
"You remember seen? To be exact seen's memory. In that time existed a being who looked exactly like you. You even watched seen's memory as him."
"The reason the power is awakening now? Well it has no choice, if it doesn't, this body will never be reborn to be inhabited by any other soul again!" Aknaili excitedly said.
The serpent made contact with mark's body and it was blown apart.
When this happened time began to flow normally again. Zico was awe struck, he had put his all might in the last attack.
"How..." He questioned but the body he was in melted and returned to his original entity inhabited. And surprising enough zico didn't regain control of the body, it was still in entity control.
Entity looked at Mark and felt an intense pressure. Unlike zico, he chose to ran away immediately leaving mark to stare at his body like a fool.
"What was that just now?" Mark asked, expecting a response from aknaili which didn't come.
"This must have been the power he was talking about..." He said, then looked around for zico who was nolonger in sight.
"Shit... I nolonger know what to do now." He climbed a tree that looked taller than the rest.
"At least I should know where I... Nhuh?!" He noticed a face in the tree then fell down to the ground headfirst.
He whirled like a spoiled kid crying for a wife at the age of ten, with his hands holding his head.
"What the shi... What's wrong with old... I mean master?!" Mark promptly asked.
The old man jumped down and stood besides him.
"Hmm, you really did kill a god."
Mark stood up and responded,
"I guess I did." He uttered still not sure.
"Well, the hard part starts now kid." The old man walked around mark.
"What's the hard part?" He sarcastically asked. His whole life had been the hard part after all.
"Leaving this planet. The beast's have already respawned, they are not coming out because I am here," Mark looked at the old man and found what he said believable.
"So you're leaving? Take me with you." He expressed his desire to go with the old man but the old man just disappeared.
"The... What's wrong with that guy?" Mark sat on the ground and leaned against a tree.
"Hey, aknaili are you also scared of that old man?" Mark uttered.
In his mind a voice came,
'I was not scared of your father, why would I be scared of his number 7?'
"Number 7?" Mark questioned.
'yes, he was one of your father's subordinates. Not the closest but one of the only loyal ones god slayer had,' Aknaili responded.
"Can you tell me about him?" Marks request was met with silence. When mark heard no response he got up. He saw a strange group of birds fly passed in the air.
"The beasts must have woken up from that old man's aura." Mark put his hand up and was about to summon his scythe but Aknaili stopped him.
'summon that scythe if you want to lose yourself to that lowly receon's power,' aknaili was already in marks body, he didn't want another being to take control of Mark, so he warned.
"What do you mean? I'll have to fight without a weapon?" He had already broken the promise he made of not touching any, why was he restricted again. He waited for a response from aknaili but nothing came. So he decided to start walking.
When he made it out of the forest after walking a few miles, he saw a river. The sky was open so he managed to see the portal that was in the sky.
"Been a while since I took a bath," he sniffed himself and made an ugly expression on his face. He immediately took of his clothes.
He had no scars whatsoever, his body was chiseled like that of a fitness model. The sun's light shone on it and it was reflected back by his glowing skin.
"I wish this was a hot tub," he uttered before jumping into the water. He hadn't eaten in a while. As he swam through the river with strong currents which didn't seem to phase him. he started making plans for what he was going to eat.
"Well, since the beast's are back. The meet is back," he announced with a knowing smile as he floated on the water.
As he floated he was pulled into the water. The water turned into something like a whirlpool. He tried to swim out as fast as he could but failed. The pull was just too strong.
He looked into the water to see what was causing all this and saw a giant serpent. He was terrified so he immediately used whole his power to try get out but failed and was sucked in by the whirlpool which lead directly into the serpents mouth.
