Limitless Evolution: The Path To Immortality



"N-No!" She begged now that there wasn't anything gripping around her face.

She was certain that she wouldn't die from this drop due to her armor. And for an added fact, she still had her mana wings that would allow her to glide to safety.

Remembering that she still had wings, glimmers of hope shone within her eyes, yet just when she was going to brace herself for the fall, she felt something pushing against the back of her head.

"What are you-"

"!!!"

A look of horror appeared on her face as Silas catapulted both of them toward the ground with the use of water, fire, and air magic.

Silas's fury burned like an inferno as he descended towards the ground, locked in a deadly struggle with Greed. The torrential rain and fierce winds served as a backdrop to their clash, intensifying the already charged atmosphere.

As they neared the earth, Silas used his mastery of water magic to create a massive water pillar beneath them. With a swift motion, he redirected their momentum, sending them spiraling through the air in a chaotic dance of elements. Greed's attempts to resist and break free proved futile as Silas's power overwhelmed her.

The impact was cataclysmic. 

Silas crashed into the ground with Greed firmly in his grip, creating a colossal crater that shattered the earth beneath them. 

The sheer force of the impact echoed throughout the surroundings, shaking the very foundations of the land.

Silas wasted no time. Gripping Greed's head with an iron grip, he dragged her face mercilessly through the ground, trees, and mountainside. 

The terrain distorted under their clash, leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. 

The sound of tearing earth and the shrieks of the wind mingled with Greed's desperate cries for mercy.

Silas's dominance was absolute. His controlled rage fueled his every move, granting him strength and precision. 

Greed felt nothing but terror as Silas' relentless assault continued.

Dread filled her up to her core, while pain made her see nothing but red throughout the whole ordeal...

She felt like she was going to die. No, she knew she wasn't going to die.

The only quesion was, when would Silas find enough pity for her to ever let her live.

Their battle continued in a symphony of violence and chaos. Silas unleashed a barrage of magical attacks, each strike honed and devastating. 

It was like Silas didn't care anymore... No... It wasn't "like he didn't care", it was simply a fact that he didn't.

Right now, despite having controlled the fury that was boiling through his blood vessels, he was still being controlled by it.

Every thing in his body was telling him to get rid of it... To get rid of the rage.

To point it at one thing until that very thing burned to the ground and turned to dust.

He wanted others to feel what he was feeling. The sense of helplessness, knowing he can't do anything to help the only people he ever wanted to help.

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

Fire engulfed the battlefield, scorching everything in its path, while wind currents whipped violently, tearing through the air with deadly precision.

Silas weaved through the elements effortlessly, his movements fluid and graceful as runes appeared and disappeared around him, their aftermath creating destruction like no other.

Greed struggled desperately, her armor cracking under the relentless assault. 

Her once unbreakable armor that sent shivers down the spines of anyone who saw it, was now being relentlessly pummeled by someone a fraction her age.

By someone she hadn't even properly deemed a threat yet, and in the end, that was the very thing that would bring around her demise.

Yet, Silas remained unyielding, his eyes burning with determination.

The landscape around them bore the scars of their clash. 

Trees were uprooted, rocks shattered, and the very fabric of the environment was warped by their immense power. Mud and debris clung to Greed's battered form as she fought to stay conscious, her will to survive barely keeping her going.

"Your pathetic. Nothing but a worm desperate for power." Silas sneered while kicking her in the abdomen while she was still on the ground.

She puked out a mouthful of blood, however, Silas didn't seem like he was done.

"You stupid bitch." Silas raised his foot into the air and slammed it onto her head, burrying it into the ground and breaking her nose simultaneously.

"You good for nothing asshole." Silas grit his teeth and kicked her with even more rage.

"Ha... Hahaha... Hahahahaha." She laughed, yet it only made Silas' anger burn brighter.

Grabbing her by the neck, Silas lifted her into the air and forced her to look at him in the eyes.

She had been beaten black and blue.

Blood came out the cuts and holes on her face, while the bone structure itself looked like it might have been beyond repair.

Her jaw was shattered, and her skill was most likely cracked.

"What's so funny?" Silas asked with wide and empty eyes.

It would have sent a shiver down the spine of anyone who saw it...

Yet, Greed kept laughing...

And laughing...

AND LAUGHIN-

"You know none of this will bring your family back, right?"

"..."

A fist slammed into her face and sent her flying.

The sheer force of the impact sent Greed hurtling through the air, crashing into the remnants of a shattered hill with bone-crushing force.

Silas stood at the edge of the battlefield, his eyes fixed on the broken figure of Greed. The rain washed away the blood and dirt from his face, revealing an expression of cold determination. 

"And we both know.... None of this will ever truly satiate your rage."

"You're right..." Silas sighed before a demonic smile extended from the corner of his lips, something that shocked her, especially after seeing his bloodthirsty expression for what felt like hours.

"But it'll definitely help."

Pointing his axe the Greed, Silas muttered-

'Cinder'
