Merlin felt ecstatic.
The power flowing within him was just as he had hoped. No, it even transcended his expectations.
'So this is what it feels like… to be a god?'
He could see everything for hundreds of miles. He could feel the world around him, down to the elements that made everything up. The power that swirled within him seemed to be without end.
This was true power.
'Don't you worry, Jared. I'll use this body well. I'll even help you acheive your goals…'
The poor boy had always been a pawn in his plans. Ever since he was Lewis Griffith, he had been emotionally unstable—the perfect vassal he required.
However, for his slave to do his worl with utmost priority and urgency, he had to possess a false sense of agency. As a result, Merlin had convinced Jared that the latter was in control, which made his ego grow as well as his efforts.
He only made suggestions to Jared, allowing the lad to figure the rest out. It was astounding how much progress was made as a result of that arrangement.
Jared was brilliant! His intelligence surpassed Merlin's expectations. Without his tutelage, the boy would have probably ended up being someone great—even though that would take him down a different path.
He was indeed fortunate for gaining access to him first.
'And now, after our long journey together, I've finally gotten what I wanted all along.' Merlin had told Jared about his desire to be resurrected once he obtained the Dark Magic, but why would he simply settle for that?
There couldn't be two kings in a nation. How could he coexist with Jared whn both of them desired unlimited power?
In the end, one had to go.
'And that person was you. I'm sorry, Jared, but this too is the fate of the weak.' Merlin grinned.
With this body, and the power he had access to, Merlin felt like he could finally begin his task.
"Killing everything here…"
After completely destroying every single life form on this planet, he would leave for the other worlds that existed within the infinite expanse of Space.
Merlin could feel his heart whenever he thought of his desire, and desired even more to indulge in them.
'Two things need to be done before then, though. First of all…" His gaze fell on the Outgroup, especially Ciel. "I'll need to kill all of them."
Then, the second was finding Jane Ursula. She was a brilliant person, and he could foresee circumstances that would require him to make use of her abilities.
"It wouldn't be a bad idea to have a companion too. I'll use a Spell to warp her mind and make her my loyal slave. That should do it…" A sick grin of perversion formed on his face instantly.
It looked too twisted to be called a mere smile.
'Be grateful, Jared. I'll be helping you and your lover fulfil your dreams. Leave it to me.'
Once those two factors were dealt with, he'd use [Spellcraft], Jared's best technique, to manipulate the vast stockpile of Dark Energy in his posession, to create a large-scale Spell that would prove fatal for the world.
With his plans already set in his mind, Merlin decided to proceed with the first task at hand.
"Killing you all comes first."
The Outgroup didn't wait for him to conclude his words, however. They all launched themselves, attacking from different directions as they wielded strange tatooes on their bodies.
'Let's see how you do. I'm also curious about trying out this power!'
"[Death] Strike!" Edward was at the forefront of the battle. His blade was coated in smething black and immensely powerful.
Even Merlin's eyes twitched once he observed it.
'That's… dangerous.'
He didn't know exactly what it was, but it seemed to have the quality of permanent death. Whether or not it would work on him was another issue entirely, though.
'Let's not be too careless, though…' Being much faster than the swordsman, even though the latter was in Martial State, Merlin appeared right beside him, dodging the strike effortleslsy.
"Begone."
One of the orbs behind him turned into a beam of purplish black light, firing an immnse cluster of energy at him.
"Wha—!"
