"Argh—"
Uriah let out a scream of agony!
Pablo had somehow made an opening in his neck, and was ripping the skin slowly off his face!
Uriah hurled the bell in his hand at Pablo, pressing it firmly against Pablo's body!
Yet the next second, Pablo gripped the bell in his hand!
Pablo took the bell away without breaking a sweat, studying it carefully.
"You killed me, but you're trying to ward me off with my own creation." Pablo smirked. "Uriah, didn't you want to outshine me? What, you couldn't even make your own bell, still using the one I gave to you?"
"You really… you really do disgust me."
Pablo's gaze darkened, and the bell in his hands turned to dust ast once!
Uriah was trembling from head to toe. This bell was a national treasure, and the only people in the kingdom who had one were him and the emperor… but now Pablo had just crushed it so easily!
What… what had he turned into…!
Before Uriah could have a second thought, he was flung into the air!
Thump—
A shelf was knocked to the floor, the vase on it shattering as well.
The sage powder in the vase was emptied all over the floor.
Sage was useful in warding off evil spirits. Uriah grabbed a handful of it, throwing it in front of him!
Uriah seemed to have lost his mind, flailing about as he hurled handful after handful of sage powder into the air as he shrieked his head off.
"Die… you're going to die!"
"I'll kill you, I'll kill you!"
The sage powder turned red as it hit the air, like the bloody fog that had come out of Nana's head when it was chopped off.
The house fell silent, and the pale figure disappeared all of a sudden.
Uriah's chest heaved heavily. His eyes were wide as he looked in front of him. Sure enough, Pablo was nowhere to be seen.
He let out a sigh of relief, before the burning pain from his face got to him. He got to his feet trembling, taking a look at his face in the mirror…
All that could be seen was that half his face had been torn off, dripping with blood. The other half was not much better off at all, covered in terrifying gashes.
"Argh…"
Uriah's fingers trembled, but he did not dare to touch himself. The pain was so overwhelming that he nearly fainted.
"Does it really hurt that bad?" Pablo's voice rang next to Uriah's ear.
Uriah's chest lurched as he widened his eyes.
