Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality



"Hey Game, man! You didn't tell me you had a girlfriend!" Alex nudged Silas as they were walking in. 

Nymira heard them speak, and for a moment, her eyes darted toward Silas' face, yet after seeing there was no real reaction to it, she simply looked away and closed the door.

"This is the second time we've met. Do you really think that I would tell you anything about me?" Silas raised a brow.

"Yes! The ladies back in our living area keep telling me how trustworthy I am. You know? I keep very big secrets on a daily basis!" Alex crossed his arms and raised his chin toward the sky in pride.

"I doubt a woman in her right mind would choose to get any closer to you than necessary." Silas sighed and began to walk toward the training area.

The last time Silas came to Nymira's house, he had told her to not get rid of the bodies. Sure, it smelled horrible and would most likely get worse with time, but Nymira was an amateur. Silas knew how to hide a body properly. He had done it countless times in his previous life. 

Why bring Alex along, one might ask?

That was the question on Nymira's mind. She knew that they would be getting rid of the bodies, and while at first, she thought that the red-haired boy might have been someone who could help Silas, after a while, she realized his scent was all wrong.

From his scent alone she could tell that there wasn't a single drop of blood on his hands, as if he hadn't even committed violence before, let alone murder.

However, as usual, Silas had a plan. Nymira could smell it.

"Alex, I need your help on something." Silas stated while looking at Alex who still had his nose plugged by his fingers.

"What?"

"That's disgusting..."

"Hey! It's not my fault your girlfriend here has no hygiene!" Alex complained before spasming forward while trying his best to not puke.

"Oh god... I can taste the smell. I was to puke! I want to puke!" Alex shouted.

Sniffing the air, Silas didn't really think much of it. Sure, the air on Uladia had been quite nice, but the air on Earth was probably worse, especially in the cities.

The cities always smelled horrible, but that was understandable. With no one working the essential jobs, sewers sat still for years while rubbish piled up.

With the amount of humans left on the planet, cleaning was one of the least important things. Or at least cleaning the outside.

People with homes usually cleaned their houses since they didn't want to randomly get cut and eventually get infected.

"Ah... The good old days." Silas sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose before eventually looking back at Nymira.

"I thought you could smell really well." Silas asked.

"I can, but my nose doesn't work the same way as yours and his." Nymira explained.

"Have you been sleeping well?" Silas asked while continuing to walk toward the door to the training area.

"Not really. I haven't been sleeping well ever since your and your group of bandits kidnapped me."

"Again, not my group." Silas sighed.

"Tomato, 'tomato'."

"..."

After sighing for the hundredth time that day, Silas snapped his fingers and cast a purge spell on the entire house.

Silas' spell quickly killed any harmful bacteria that might have been infesting throughout the house. At the same time, it purified the smell and allowed everyone in the room to finally smell pure air once more.

"The smell is gone now." Silas forcefully took out Alex's fingers from his nose and used water and purge magic to quickly clean it.

Alex looked at Silas with an awed expression, while Silas could only raise a brow at what he was seeing.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Silas asked.

"You cast magic... Without chanting! Holy-" Alex began to ramble on for a few minutes, yet the only thing Silas could think of was the fact that Alex actually knew things about magic.

'Maybe I'm right about him.' Silas narrowed his eyes and decided to complete the test he had been doing over the last few minutes.

Without skipping a beat, Silas opened the doors to the training room, allowing everyone in the living room to see dozens of corpses, laid around the room with dried blood under them.

"..." Alex suddenly looked through the doors and paused. He couldn't help it.

It was a natural human reaction.

"We're going to get rid of these bodies without anyone knowing. Murder is still a crime, and I'd rather not catch the attention of the Judgement faction right now." Silas smiled at Alex.

He wasn't actually worried about the Judgement faction, but if someone were to find out that Nymira had killed over two dozen people and kept them in her training room, it would most likely inadvertently hurt him.

"Are you going to help us, Alex? Are you going to help us get rid of these bodies?" Silas asked with narrowed eyes while Nymira stood close to see if he was lying or not.

Of course, Silas could do that by monitoring his heart rate and life force with the use of his mystic eyes, but Nymira didn't know that.

"Yes... As I told you before, I won't tell anyone about anything you're into." Alex gave a thumbs up while Silas' eyes twitched and Nymira's widened.I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

"You make it sound like I'm into collecting bodies."

"Oh. My bad. I meant to say that you're both into collecting bodies!" Alex grinned.

"These are the bodies of rapists."

"Am I wrong though?"

"..."

"..."

Both Nymira and Silas were at a loss for words. How could a normal person be so positive and giddy about hiding a bunch of corpses?!

Silas stared at Alex, a mixture of disbelief and amusement crossing his face. "You're a moron, you know that, right?" he remarked, shaking his head.

Nymira, too, couldn't help but let out a small chuckle at Alex's lightheartedness.

"Hey, someone's got to keep the mood light, right?" Alex replied, flashing a mischievous grin. "But on a serious note, how do we plan on getting rid of these bodies without raising any suspicions?"

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm Silas crossed his arms, his expression growing serious once again. "We're going to burn them, but we have to be careful and make sure it doesn't draw too much attention."

Nymira nodded in agreement, however, shouldn't help but question Silas.

"Can't you just burn them here?" She asked.

"I would, but these are corpses were talking about. They take quite a lot of heat to turn into ashes, and while I am capable of doing that, in such an environment it would be pretty hard not to burn your house down." Silas explained while looking around for another moment.

This was the difference between magic circles and elemental control. Magic circles couldn't be controlled the same way beasts control the elements. They were imperfect, and right now, he was reminded of that.

Silas turned to Alex. "We'll need your help in carrying the bodies to the designated locations. Make sure you wear gloves and cover your face to avoid leaving any traces behind."

"Nope... I can carry them myself at top speed." Nymira chimed in.

"All of them?" Alex couldn't help but shout.

"What if we just crush them?" Silas asked, making both of them look at him with raised brows.

"And how would we do that, exactly?" Alex asked.

"I'll use my earth magic to crush them into a ball before burying it underground. Easy." Silas shrugged, while the others looked at each other and shrugged.

"Isn't that, a little boring though?" Alex asked.

"And you called me the maniac." Silas chuckled.

"Hey! You called me disgusting for picking my nose when you have dozens of bodies in a room! Who's the disgusting one now!"

"Beside the point." Silas shrugged.

"Don't 'beside the point' me!" Alex pointed at Silas accusingly.

Silas and Alex bickered for a few minutes while Nymira simply watched them both with a shocked yet amused smile. The scent coming from Silas was different. She had known him for years. Of course, they were never close, but she would see him all the time around Uladia.

He always had this serious expression on his face, as if he had the entire world on his shoulders.

His scent too. His scent was always bloody. When she was around him, she could swear that screams followed him everywhere he went.

And whenever she saw him, she could not help but feel like he heard them too.

That every time he closes his eyes, he would see something none of them could even begin to imagine.

However, despite that feeling still being there, there were two things that was different about it.

The first difference was that, for once, the emotions he showed weren't an act. When he rolled his eyes, there was a little bit of amusement in his eyes. When he chuckled, it was real...

Yet, the second difference made her wary of Silas.

Becuase the second difference was that, beyond the bloody scent emanating from him, there was another scent...

The scent of something burning... A world burning.

Burning deep inside of him, hidden by the blood that surrounded.

A burning that looked like it would engulf the outside world in the blink of an eye.
