Limitless Human

After Cecily words, silence reigned as Hugh and Mike looked at each other in the eye.

Hugh: Go ahead.

Mike: Yeah.

Cecily: What? But it's too dangerous. We don't know if this Demon Essence is safe too consume.

Ethan: Nothing is safe or secure anymore. It never was. The only thing we can do is muster our courage and step forward to face death with a smile. Back in my world, you can even die by walking down the street.

Mike: Ethan is right. Now we have a chance to change our destiny. We have to take all the opportunities we can despite the risks.

Hugh: But I don't think that you should absorb the Demon Essence here.

Ethan: I am just here to take something with me.

Hugh: What is it?

Ethan: whiu-iu

As Ethan whistled, a rapid shadow flashed by as a black-brownish small creature appeared on Ethan right shoulder.

Ethan: Hi little guy.

Mike and Hugh although had high ranks couldn't help but feel a strong pressure from little creature on Ethan shoulder. It was Bai Hu.

Using the Rank 3 crystals the group had made Takamura and Endi rise up to Rank 6, making the two of them gained new abilities and strengthen the old ones. At the same time Ethan had Bai Hu eat some vines from Endi and lose feathers of Takamura gaining their abilities from it's astonishing ability, Devour.

Ethan: Let's go. I will be needing you two guys to maintain the perimeter while I work on consuming the Demon Essence.

Hugh: No problem.

Mike: Okay.

After a while of preparation the three of them with Cecily and Bai Hu were standing outside of the primary walls(the ones that cover the entire territory, there is another set of walls that cover only the floating castle).

Around them was countless of vines ready to take any action being controlled by Cecily with her contract with Endi. Bardock and Master Roshi were also standing there on the North and South side while Mike and Hugh on East and West side.

As for Cecily was outside of the 'dome' made of black vines with Takamura up in the sky.

They had to take all kind of preparations as they didn't know what was going to happen when Ethan consumes the Demon Essence. Nothing could happen, Ethan could lose control from his body over to the Demon or worse Ethan entire being would be consumed instead by the Demon Essence creating a abnormal existence.

It was better to prevent than suffer the consequences.

Taking a final look around, Ethan smiled before retrieving the Demon Essence from his Dimensional Pouch as he gulped down.

The moment Ethan swallowed the Demon Essence, a strong aura erupted from his whole body sending shivers down at everyone inside the black 'dome'. Even Takamura and Cecily didn't escape the burst of aura as they also shivered.

A blood-red and black flame rose from Ethan body heating the surroundings. Bardock, Master Roshi and Hugh immediately released their auras causing a barrier to block the heat from touching them while Mike stood in his place narrowing only his eyes.

At the same time, Ethan was in a place filled with darkness all around him.

Ethan: What is going on? Where am I?

Whoosh

Suddenly the temperature started decreasing rapidly as frost started forming on Ethan body.

Ethan: The pain is real.

Looking at his hand turning pale, Ethan looked around him again before releasing his aura to protect him from the falling temperature.

Doing so Ethan tried to activate his Sharigan only to feel a horrifying pain coming from his eyes and heart.

Back in the black 'dome'.

Inside the blood-red and black, Ethan eyes and heart started glowing in a purple light, shining through the flame.

Hugh: Mike.

Mike: I know. Everyone get in your battle position. Oh, and don't hold back otherwise the consequence will be death. We are facing Ethan here. His abilities are strange and hard to deal with, not to mention whatever will take control over his body will probably be more ruthless than anything we have encountered.

Bardock/Hugh: Aye.

Master Roshi only nodded his head as he dropped his cane to the ground before taking a battle stance. On the other side, both Bardock and Hugh had a slightly similar battle stance.

The two of them were the main reasons behind Ethan summoning Master Roshi. They were two high potential soldiers capable of rivalling in the future as long they had the right training, so Ethan had Master Roshi and them have a short session earlier.

Back at Ethan.

He had recovered from his pain of his eyes and heart, as he stood up and holding his eyes and started walking forward.

Ethan: F.u.c.k. I should have guess, but to consider that I can't even use my Sharigan. Huh?

Hiiiiihhhiiihiiihi

Hahahahahaha

Suddenly countless creepy laughs came from all around Ethan.

Ethan: "What the f.u.c.k is going on? Wait." Hahahaha.

Arching his back, Ethan started laughing manically as his aura burst forward sending ripples across the darkness.

Ethan: It's impossible for you to defeat me here. HA!!!!

Unleashing a even stronger aura, Ethan forcefully activated his Sharigan causing the horrifying pain from his eyes and heart to come again, making him almost kneel in the ground.

Gripping his teeth to resist the pain a little, Ethan continued releasing his aura while activating his Sharigan.

His eyes started bleeding profoundly painting his face red.

At the same time, back in the black 'dome'.

The flames surrounding Ethan rose in strength and heights burning right through the black vines, this time Mike had to release his aura to protect him from the heat of the flames. Although his body had strengthened due to awakening his bloodline, the blood-red and black flames were giving out a dangerous feeling.

Now the aura from them reached everyone around them including the humans inside their territory. All of them had been informed previously that they were forbidden for the next hours to go out, but human curiosity took over as a group of them rushed to the walls to find out what was going on.

Reaching the walls all of them forgot about the black 'snakes' as they started rapidly moving immediately catching and restricting them except for the gate where the black 'snakes' remaining quietly.

The ones there didn't see their colleagues state as they simply ignored them and climbed using the black vines.

Meow

Just as they reached the top of the gate, a weak kitten sound came turning to look they found a sleepy kitten staring at them.

Their hearts melt at the sight of the cute, brownish kitten.

Tzzz

Suddenly the sleepy kitten opened it's small mouth, revealing a equally small yellow sparkly ball.

Neither of them this time felt warm in the heart, as even they could feel the threat from the small sparkly yellow ball.

Boooommm

The little brownish kitten didn't give them time to think as he fired the small sparkly yellow ball at them.

A explosion sounded as not even their ashes were left behind.

The people working on the camps, constructing new buildings and such were stunned at the sigh of power from the small kitten. No longer did anyone looked at the walls no mentioning approaching them to help their fellow colleagues still trapped by the black vines.

Back to Ethan situation.

His surrounding had changed from the complete black to a complete white. Standing in front of Ethan was a exact copy of him.

Ethan: So who might you be? My inner self?

???: Is there such a need when you know the truth.

Ethan: Hehehe....come one cheer up.

???: Hahaha..... you are right.
