The Deceitful One



The next moment, Bryan crushed the man's skull as easily as crushing an eggshell! The head exploded like a watermelon. Blood, bones, and brain matter scattering everywhere.

He looked at the headless corpse of the person still twitching from time to time and muttered with a mischievous smile, "Why don't you regenerate from that?"

He then spoke inwardly, 'Benny!'

The next moment, the space beside him tore open and a portal was formed! Bryan stepped inside the portal along with the dead body and the other Blood Path Transcendent who had a look of terror and sheer disbelief etched on his face.

Naturally, Bryan didn't want to leave the dead body behind. Nadir was a city full of Transcendents. If they found the dead body, they could easily trace it back to him, considering the wide array of skills and techniques that Transcendents had in their arsenal.

Bryan entered the Dream World and looked around to see that he was still in the alley. Except, the alley was different.

He maneuvered his tendril and chucked the corpse to the side. All of a sudden, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from behind him. Bryan wasn't alarmed in the slightest.

He turned around, only to see Benny rushing towards him and then agilely climbing and sitting atop his shoulder. He asked curiously, "How did it go?"

Benny replied while licking his paw, 'It's still a little difficult for me with the time being all jumbled up in this place.'

Bryan nodded with a warm smile, "Thank you for your handwork."

'Of course!' Benny merrily hugged Bryan's face and began to lick his cheek. Earlier just now, they were experimenting on how they could accurately find and communicate with each other from two different worlds.

Bryan had already discussed with Benny beforehand that he would need to open the portal in this particular alley. The 'where' was easy since it could be agreed upon beforehand.

But the real problem was the 'when'. After all, time worked differently in the Dreamworld compared to the Waking World.

"How long did you have to wait?" Bryan inquired.

Benny thought for a few moments and replied, 'Four days.'

Bryan had a pensive expression on his face, "I see…"

According to him, it had only been a little less than an hour since he had instructed Benny to wait for him to open the portal to the Dreamworld in this alley. But to Benny, it had been four days!

"It's really difficult to work with the flow of time." Bryan rubbed his chin and thought out aloud. Benny too nodded his little head.

"E-Excuse me…" Bryan was suddenly snapped out of his thoughts. He turned to look at the Blood Path Transcendent who had been tightly wrapped by his tendril.

"Ah," Bryan smiled deviously, "I kind of forgot about you, hehe."

Seeing Bryan's evil smile, the man began to sweat profusely, "W-What are you planning to do? W-Who are you? A-And what is this place!?"

So much had transpired in such a short span of time that the person couldn't even comprehend what was even happening.

Firstly, the person whom he thought to be Ron, an important member of the Holy Blood Sect, turned out to be an imposter! And this imposter had even killed his partner so quickly!

Secondly, it was the damn tendrils! The person had never seen such a transformation ever before. The moment he laid eyes on these tendrils protruding out from Bryan's back, he was instantly filled with terror! An otherworldly terror!

And lastly but most importantly, it was this new place he was in! This place looked just like the alley they were previously in, however, it was different! Everything was saturated to the extreme.

Furthermore, he also felt a natural rejection from staying in this place. As if this new world that he had stepped inside of, did not welcome his presence.

While the person was nervously looking around at the alley that seemed to have been conjured out of a dream, Bryan raised his claw and pointed at him, "Sleep."

And the next moment, the person felt immense drowsiness come over him. His eyelids felt heavy and before long he had finally drifted off to slumber.

With Bryan's new physique, he had learned a few techniques and spells related to the dominion of dreams. And putting a person to sleep was one of them.

He uncurled his tendrils around the person as he gently laid him down on the ground. After that, all four of his tendrils went back inside his body.

As Bryan saw the torn area of his shirt and coat, he couldn't help but shake his head, "What a drag…"

Benny saw Bryan's torn suit and giggled, 'Looks like you'll have to buy loads of new clothes.'

Bryan sighed, "It appears so."

He then crouched down in front of the sleeping Blood Path Transcendent and muttered, "Are you sure he'll be dreaming now?"

Benny walked around and sat down on the other side of the person and nodded, 'He who sleeps, dreams.'

Bryan repeated Benny's words, "He who sleeps, dreams… is it? That's quite a catchphrase."

Benny giggled, 'Uncle Octopus says it all the time.'

Bryan smiled. He was about to reply but right at that moment, a small white orb began to form above the person's head. Initially, it was small but within a few moments, it grew to the size of four adult heads combined!

This was the first time that Bryan had seen the formation of a dream! He was left fascinated, "I wonder why dreams of Transcendents are so much bigger compared to regular humans…"

'I would like to find that out too.' Benny replied mentally and then jumped inside the glowing orb. Bryan too followed behind.

…

"Ahnn!"

"Ahnn!"

"Ahnn!"

"Aaaahhnnnn~"

The moment Bryan and Benny landed inside the Transcendent's dream, they were overwhelmed by sounds of pleasure!

Bryan saw that the Blood Path Transcendent was lying on a large bed with dozens of women serving him sexually.

His jaw dropped as he witnessed this spectacular scene, "How…glorious!"

Suddenly, he realized that Benny was also with him! He snapped out of his daze and looked at Benny, only to see that the little guy was watching everything happen with wide eyes.

"Crap!" He quickly picked up Benny and covered his eyes.

'NO! Bryan let me look! It's for research purposes. So that I can understand dreams better!' Benny protested as he tried to remove Bryan's hands from his eyes.

Bryan reprimanded, "Shut up! Research, my ass! I will not let you be tainted by this rubbish."

'Waaah,' Benny cried dramatically, 'I'm a grown-up! I can handle it!'

Bryan rolled his eyes, "No means no! On a serious note, will this guy wake up if I interrupt this dream?"

Sensing Bryan's solemn tone, Benny replied seriously, 'No, not in the Dreamworld. Once, he's asleep here, he won't be able to wake up on his own.'

Bryan was taken aback, "You mean to say, he'll be asleep forever?"

Benny replied, 'No, not forever. Only through outside physical interference will he wake up. He is unable to wake up on his own.'

Bryan raised his eyebrows in surprise, "How interesting!"

The rules of the Dreamworld left him in awe and his curiosity piqued. Every time he stepped inside this world or inside someone's dream, he would learn such mystical things.

He decided to spend more of his time in the Dreamworld. But therein lay the problem, time!

Who could say for sure how much time would pass in the Waking World while he was here? If it was less, then there was nothing to worry about. However, if it was the like the last time when he came here and ate the Sacred Fruit, that would be troublesome.

Bryan threw all these things to the back of his mind. He then looked at the man who was enjoying the warmth of a dozen voluptuous women and muttered coldly, "From pleasure to pain. Can you handle it?"

The next moment, he released the malevolent aura that his physique naturally emanated. All this while, he had been proactively keeping it under wraps, afraid that it would affect the people around him.

But now, the terrifying aura came gushing out like a wild torrent! Instantly, all the women's bodies exploded into blood and flesh, their feeble mortal bodies unable to withstand the might of Bryan's aura.

On the other hand, the Blood Path Transcendent's face went pale as he coughed a large mouthful of blood.

He looked in Bryan's direction in horror, "W-Who are you!?"

According to him, he was having a great time in his house as he indulged in carnal pleasure with a dozen other women. And then all of a sudden came this intruder who instantly killed everyone but him.

Although this whole thing was his dream, to him it was his reality. He wasn't aware that he was dreaming!

Bryan slowly walked toward him, step by step. Four silver tendrils slowly protruded from his back and gently flailed around.

When the man saw the tendrils coming out from Bryan's back, his heartbeat rose to such a degree that he felt as if it would explode!

He had never felt such fear! But surprisingly enough, he also felt a sense of deja vu. He clutched his chest as he coughed another mouthful of blood, "What…do you…want?"

Overcome by terror, he had completely lost the will to fight. The next moment, his eyes widened in sheer disbelief and his body began to tremble in terror!

He saw Bryan's body transform into that of a demon! His skull elongated and formed a crescent-shaped crown pointing upwards. And rows of jagged teeth grew inside his gaping maw!

He saw Bryan's cold and ruthless grin. And the next moment, the silver tendrils behind Bryan shot in his direction at lightning speed!

"NOOOO!!!!!"
