Versatile System Online-Chapter 215 Elina:- Awakening (Part 2)

As Elina spoke, her eyes shone. Within her eyes, the strange shadow could see a fierce unyielding spirit. It was the same spirit that the girl's father possessed and it was this spirit that had him killed.

However, it was also the same spirit that had made the devil be a source of power for their bloodline. Apparently, from what the devil knew of; Elina's forefathers had a long-running bloodline and currently it was Elina who had awakened it.

Looking at the girl in front of him, the devil sighed. Its blood-red eyes stared at Elina as he spoke.

"Okay then. Let me live in your consciousness. I will see it for myself if you are deserving of my power,"

After saying that, the devil turned into blackish smoke and fused with Elina. As it did, strange cryptic patterns formed over her skin and she felt her blood run cold. The curse energy within her body started to undergo some changes as she felt her power increase by a good margin.

Right now, Elina was confused about what was happening. Although she had some idea of the devilish shadow and what it was, she wasn't clear. Also, the fact that she had gotten such courage and confronted that hideous being without showing a hint of weakness, Elina found another side of herself.

"I need to go back. Aella would be waiting for me," Leaving all other thoughts behind, she thought of the Academy, the fight against trolls, and how Aella would be out there fighting against those creatures while protecting her at the same time.

As she decided to get out, she hurriedly walked over to the place and suddenly, she stopped. "But how do I get out? Also, am I even in my consciousness q somewhere else?" she thought to herself, scratching her head, she felt embarrassed over her actions, but thankfully no one was present to judge her.

Thinking hard, she failed to think of a way to get out. Then, her mind churned as an idea came to her,

"Hey, Mister. Dark Devilish Shadow," She called out in her mind. Her voice was a bit weak as she was to some extent afraid of the strange shadowy figure and also felt that the thing wouldn't help her. However, what choice did she have?

"Don't even think about it," The shadowy devil's voice sounded within her consciousness. Although the devil looked scary, its voice wasn't all that bad.

"Don't think about what," After appreciating its voice, she got back to the topic and retorted.

"About getting you out. After all, it was you who said that you are strong enough to control me. Then, if you are so strong, why do you need my help?" The voice sounded again.

Listening to the devil, although the words spoken were rude, the dreamy voice made her fall for it as she almost lost herself in the devil's voice.

"But… it was you who dragged me here. So it's your responsibility to get me back out there," said Elina, trying to convince the devil, her voice almost broke as she was starting to fear the darkness around herself.

Fearing that she might be trapped in her forever, she felt like crying.

"Ughhhh…" The voice groaned in annoyance as it spoke, "Look into your shadow,"

"What," Elina muttered, albeit a bit confused she still followed its orders and looked down at her shadow.

As she looked down, she saw the devil's blood-red eye eerie looking back at her. Looking into those eerie-looking eyes, she felt scared. However, she had to get out of the place and for that, she kept her fear in control.

"Now what?" Clenching her fists, she asked.

"Since I have decided to consider you as my successor, master, and whatnot, let me extend some of my help to you," The voice sounded in her head as the blood-red eyes flickered.

"If so, then help Dammit," Elina cursed, feeling angered over the shadow's hypocritical behavior.

"Tsk… kids these days. No respect for their elders," The shadows seemed to be disappointed as it clicked its tongue. However, keeping its promise; the shadow's eyes flickered once more. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖

As Elina was looking into its eyes, it didn't take long for her to fall into a trance as her vision blurred. The darkness receded and when she opened her eyes again, in front of her was the hall as dead trolls littered over the ground.

Beside her, she saw some trolls as the trolls remained standing. Looking into their eyes, there seemed to be some sort of deep visceral fear that made their bodies freeze while their hearts stopped beating out of fear.

"What the f*ck…" She cursed as all of the things that she saw went above her head.

"Just what happened here?" She thought to herself and turned around. As she did, she saw Aella standing near a corner her legs shook while an indiscernible fear shone in her eyes.

"Aella, what happened?" She asked.

Hearing her question, Aella felt her blood run cold. The woman in front of her wasn't her friend, no… she was a devil. That was what Aella thought as moments before, Elina had turned into something else.

A blackish smoke had covered her body. Her eyes turned blood red while claws extended out of her shadowy hands made of smoke. Behind her, two strange creepy wings opened up while cryptic demonic scriptures shone all over her body.

When Aella had turned to look at her friend, that was what she saw. A pure definition of a devil. The devil looked back at her as its mouth opened into an eerie grin, seeing those huge fangs and spiked teeth, Aella almost fainted from the fear.

However, the devil only waved its hand at her, as if saying hello to her; it turned around. And that was when it started. Aella saw how the devil literally tore the trolls open as if they were nothing and then drained the blood out of their bodies and then controlled the blood as it used the blood of the trolls to kill their fellow kin.

Within five minutes, the trolls in the hall had died as Aella had witnessed pure carnage in that time. The brutality of the monster was so much that Aella felt her skin tingle from only seeing it happen.

After killing the troll, the devil had turned to look at her and winked at her right after, the shadows receded as everything was gone. The devil's eerie presence, its bloodthirsty aura, and the strange shadows that remained around it. It was all gone and if not for the dismembered trolls lying in the hall, Aella would have thought it to be a dream.

"Aella, it's me, Elina," Elina spoke. Looking at the fearful look on her friend's face, she had a foreboding and knew that it wasn't something good.

Therefore, trying to pacify her scared friend, she tried to approach her. However, just as Elina took a step forward, Aella seemed to turn even paler as she took stepped back in fear.

"Just what did you do?" Noticing the fear in her eyes increase, Elina asked the devil in her consciousness.

"Well, there seemed to be a lot of trolls. So I decided to wipe them out for you. Didn't I do a good job?" The devil answered as if it did some big job and asked for Elina's compliments.

"What the f*ck did you do?" Elina asked in disbelief as she finally understood what happened.

Thinking a bit, she looked at Aella and spoke, "It wasn't me," Saying that, she sat on the ground. She knew that if she pushed it further and tried to get closer, Aella might as well faint from fear and shock.

Not to mention that if something happened to Aella, Ray wouldn't let her live, and Elina knew of Ray's strength and also that even the devil wouldn't be able to help her if she triggered that man.

As she waited for Aella to calm down, she spoke to the devil, "I want you to listen to some rules first,"

"Well, you are not my master yet. So I don't think I need to," The devil retorted in her consciousness.

"Well then, if you don't. I will just lock your power and let you rot in my consciousness," She answered.

"Can you?" Not believing her, the devil was sure that she was bluffing and therefore teased.

However, deep down he was afraid that if Elina decided to ignore him, it wouldn't be of use to him as he needed his host to awaken his powers and live on. After all, it was the bloodline it served.

"Well, if you don't believe me then…" Elina spoke. Although she bluffed, she knew that the devil would buy it and it did as the devil's voice sounded,

"Okay, I follow your rules," It yielded in fear of being left rotting in Elina's consciousness.

"Good, so listen now," Elina said and narrated the rules while Aella finally calmed down a bit as she spoke,

"Elina, is it really you?" She asked.
