The Devil's Cage
The Devil's Cage - Chapter 1800: Arrow

The huge lightning bolts caused Bloody Mary to tremble fiercely. Compared to the previous lightning strikes, Bloody Mary’s eyes turned white and it almost passed out.

Pain! Unimaginable pain!

It was more painful than decapitation, cut in half by the waist, being burnt alive, or drowning.

Even if it was torn into shreds, the pain was not even 1% of what it felt right now.

Bloody Mary really wanted to scream out loud, but it couldn’t due to its boss’ plan.

Should it scream in pain, even if it would compensate for its mistake at a later time, mistakes would have been made.

It wouldn’t allow that to happen! So it diverted its own attention.

Diverting its attention was a method that Bloody Mart discovered while it was suffering from the pain.

It was imagining the warm sunlight above its head, waves crashing in its ears: it was its home, West Coast!

A sea breeze blew into its face, it wasn’t exactly soft but he yearned for it. Until today, it still regretted not going to shore and lingering on that ship.

Had it gone ashore earlier, maybe it would have a different life.

It might not have met its boss, its boss would never exploit its values, and it would surely live a pleasant, enjoyable life.

Waking up every morning and being greeted by the warm sunlight. A scrumptious breakfast waiting for its arrival and the waiter welcoming it with a kind smile, as though the fireworks under the starry sky, dazzling and beautiful.

In the afternoon, it would go to the best restaurant for steak or lamb shank.

It better had cumin and black pepper added, the taste would… what would it taste like?

‘I HAVEN’T TASTED IT BEFORE, HOW THE HELL DO I KNOW WHAT IT TASTE LIKE?

F*CK, (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻.’

Bloody Mary couldn’t write the stories anymore, the pain was tearing it apart.

Its heart wailed in pain but at the very next moment, the excruciating pain stopped.

The energetic willpower of God of War, overflowing with hostile intents, finally entered the soul world of its boss through the power of contracts.

“I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST IN HELL!”

Gradually recovering from the excruciating pain, Bloody Mary gave its truest blessing to the energetic willpower of God of War.

Though rather than considering it a blessing, Bloody Mary said it like a solid fact.

…

Kakroom!

The energetic willpower of God of War landed in the expanse of wilderness like a bolt of lightning.

Compared to the earlier versions, which one could tell they were unreal with a single glance, this energetic version of willpower looked very real. If it wasn’t for the trace of mystical light swirling around his body, he would look like a real person.

“Hmph!”

Gazing upon the wilderness, the energetic willpower grunted out of cold disdain.

His previous clones provided a lot of information regarding this unusual place, so he understood this place was filled with traps, especially that knight! He was the biggest trap!

“Tricking invaders using the figure of a knight and then robbing the invaders of their power, destroying them in the process!”

The energetic willpower recalled the knight figure with gnashing teeth.

Losing three willpower at the same time wasn’t any substantial loss to the God of War, but the insult that accompanied the loss infuriated him.

Damn it!

Thinking about the insults he received from a demi-god, the energetic willpower that carried the thoughts of God of War grew more furious, flying towards where the knight like an arrow let loose.

His three normal version willpower were destroyed by below the belt attacks. He wouldn’t just sit back and let it slip, he ought to tear the knight into shreds!

He ought to teach the knight the consequences of infuriating a true God!

Waves sounded.

The energetic willpower saw the figure of the knight. Without further ado, he jumped up, holding a greatsword that appeared out of thin air.

It was a fact that the knight could use his own energy against him but the usage must have a limit!

Compared to the normal version of willpower, this energetic version was countless times more powerful, he would surely surpass the mentioned limit!

It wasn’t blind confidence, it was raw intuition! The intuition of the God of War, tempered through hundreds and thousands of battles. He had the confidence to overcome the knight’s limit!

At the next moment, the knight representing Saint Thorn Force disappeared from the spot, as though it allowed the energetic willpower to verify his thoughts.

“Trying to run?” The energetic willpower of God of War coldly laughed and jumped off the cliff, diving towards the relentless waves.

Kabooom!

Due to the energetic willpower’s extreme traveling speed, upon contact with the waves, a loud explosion went off.

The moment it dived into the sea, his speed slingshot him to the bottom of the sea in an instant.

The current was fierce down there, the pressure that could crush rocks didn’t cause him any trouble at all.

As though he was walking on flat land, the energetic willpower pursued the knight.

At the same time, he scanned his new surroundings.

When he noticed a figure forming in the dark waters, his eyes shone.

“As I expected! The wilderness and the cliff are not your soul space! This is it! The bottom of the sea is your soul space!”

Although unable to clearly see the figure’s face, when the energetic willpower sensed the arrogance that only a God would possess, he immediately thought he had located his real target.

Without a second thought, the energetic willpower ran up.

He didn’t care about the knight anymore, albeit the knight turned around and chased after him, he didn’t care at all.

The knight’s purpose was to deceive.

As for the real attack, the energetic willpower didn’t care at all.

On the other hand, this arrogant figure pressured him, as if he was facing his greatest enemy. Even within his intimidating presence, heavy arrogance continued to emanate from the figure.

“A demi-god could not have achieved this! Did he hold back earlier?”

The energetic willpower suddenly heaved a breath of relief, the rage in his heart lessening up.

Had he faced off against a demi-god and lost 4 of his clones, it would be unforgivable and infuriating.

If his target had surpassed the level of a demi-god, he wouldn’t have to care anymore.

Quite the contrary, it made him happy as he detected another bastard with ulterior motives at the cost of four of his willpower clones.

Having one troublesome bastard was enough, anymore than one would have to die!

The energetic willpower swung the greatsword in his hands down at the figure.

Chang!

The next moment, the sea before the energetic willpower was slashed in half, like he was cutting tofu. The sea water vapourized quickly. The blast of wind, formed by pure energy from the greatsword, swept over the arrogant figure.

However, the energetic willpower didn’t even bat an eye at his target, turning around and performing another slash.

His battle instinct told him that his target was still alive. What he had just cut was just an illusion.

Roar!

The dragon bellowed and the tiger roared!

The fierce energy in the shape of a dragon carried the phantasmal image of the tiger, crashing onto the backward slash of the energetic willpower.

KABOOM!

The sea water rumbled. The energetic willpower remained firm on his stance but the arrogant figure took a step back. However, the arrogance from the figure grew heavier because an arrow, as black as ink, embedded itself in the willpower’s knee.
