Toward the end, Yarl had a crazed look on his face.
Insane… What a lunatic!
Morticia was enraged and shivered with rage when she heard the words. "You killed Sir Cranos and still have the audacity to speak with such zeal. How do b*stards like you fit into the fiend race?
"Sir Cranos was right. You're a traitor, and you're also out of your mind."
Cranos had been a good man, only to have been murdered by his nephew. What a tragedy.
Yarl only smiled. "You can think whatever you want. I'm only doing this for the future of the Blanc clan and the future of the fiend race."
"The Blanc clan had also done a great deal for the fiend race. Skylar had risked his life to enter the Ghost World to save Archfiend Antigonus. Your fiend soul would merely serve as compensation for the Blanc clan—"
Before he could finish his thought, Morticia cut him off with disgust. "Do you think you are worthy of being compared to Skylar Blanc? You are nothing more than a useless jerk who brings shame to the fiend race. You can forget about having my fiend soul."
Morticia rose to her feet as the final word reverberated through the air. Her piercing eyes burned with homicidal rage.
Cranos had risked all to save her from the South Cloud Royals. She could not let him die in vain.
Yarl barely flinched, remaining in the same spot with an ear-splitting grin. "Why the trouble, Honorable Fiend Martyr? Cranos is already dead. All you have to do is give me your fiend soul, and I will do everything I can to find you an antidote to the poison in you. Consider this—you are weak right now and carrying a child. What good is it to oppose me?"
"Cut the crap! You're going to die!"
Morticia did not waste any more time speaking. She roared, flying into the air to strike Yarl in the chest.
Buzz!
Morticia was terribly weak at the time, yet the strike had required all of her might. It was still astonishingly powerful, compressing the air where it touched.
Morticia had materialized in front of Yarl in the blink of an eye, rage on her beautiful face.
"You shameless bastard. You killed your clan leader, and now you want to take my fiend soul. Both actions are unforgivable, and I will take you down today, weed out a useless b*stard like you and avenge Sir Cranos."
