妻子的秘密

<strong>*Boom!*</strong>

"Nooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed out with everything I had, but all I could do was watch as beams of light fell from the sky, destroying everything they hit. The lives of billions of people gone just like that. My mind was sinking even more. I did not want this. I did not want any of this. I just wanted the people of the empire I loved to live peacefully, so why!? Why must it come to this!?

"No… It won\'t end like this… I will not allow things to end like this…."  I stood up in the white space, which was slowly being consumed with red, and closed my eyes. I slowly opened them again as my eyes lit up with a light so radiant that I never thought would ever be imaginable. "Stop….."

Everything in the world slowed to a stop. The other me who had been destroying the empire I was working hard to make better and defend suddenly appeared in my mind\'s sea. "Why!? Why did you stop me!?"

"Why!? Why the hell would you kill my people!? Why would you kill the citizens of my empire!? Are you fucking dumb!?" I yelled out, cursing at the top of my lungs. I could no longer take it. I could not allow this. I would not allow my people to die so needlessly. "You think just protecting my loved ones was enough!? Look what you are doing! How are you any different than the Altorians!?"

"I am doing this for you! You are weak! Sometimes a loss must be made in order to deal with the unexpected! If I do not use this power, I can not defeat Azengrade and his people with my current strength! Only this spell will hurt them enough to make them fall back! But to do that, sacrifices must be made!" The other me told back. Her eyes were bloodshot with anger, but I did not care.

"So sacrificing billions of lives is your way of solving the issue? I wonder…" I reached out and took the other\'s me\'s hand, and pulled her close to me. In her shock, she did not even know what to do as I tilted her head and sunk my fangs into her neck. In a muffled tone, I said: "Since you are so powerful, let me borrow that power."

I held on tight to the other me as I sucked her blood. My level was increasing by one hundred every second. "Get off me! What are you doing!?"

She struggled in my arms until she finally used her foot to push me off, but by then, I had already jumped up to level 1428. This was different than before. When I sucked the blood of my wives and husband, I could taste their blood, but from her, it was hard to describe. I could feel the power within her, making me stronger by the second. I did not taste anything. I just felt a surge of power flowing into me.

"You bitch! You actually stole some of my power!?" The other me yelled out. She looked at me in surprise and anger. I wiped my mouth and sneered.

"Heh… I did not think it would work, but I am glad I did it. To think you were at such a high level yet need to use such a strong attack to get rid of your enemies." I snorted as I looked at the world outside, still frozen. I had used a large scale cosmic magic to stop time for the entire capital. Everyone was frozen at this time, including the undead. "But let me make one thing clear. The lives of my people are not things you can just destroy without my consent. No one is allowed to harm the people of my empire. I would not have taken up the role of empress if it was not for the fact that I love this land I grew up in that was so welcoming to me."

"Trinity, was it? I guess this is your name. We will talk more when I am finished fixing what you have done. When it\'s over, the two of us will have a nice chat." After that, I disappeared from the space. I could only hear Trinity as she cursed me left and right. When I arrived in the time frozen world, I was still wearing the same clothes that Trinity was wearing.

"Oh? I guess this is why I could so easily steal some of her power. She is currently in a weakened state of her weakened state. I do wonder what level she is at currently." I rubbed my chin and wondered if I should have more of a feast later. But I guess all of this will have to wait for the time being.

I looked down at Azengrade and the others, who were not fully stopped but in slow motion with cold eyes. I took a deep breath and spoke slowly as I said: "Rewind…."

The world around me began to slowly reverse. The beams of light that were raining down began to rain up until they disappeared, and the destruction and death they had caused disappeared with them. The undead that had also arrived all disappeared back into the hole they came from, with the city being returned back to its original state. The only thing I did not rewind was Azangrade and his people. Or more like I couldn\'t.

With a snap of my fingers, the world around me returned to normal. Azangrade and his men all looked around in confusion. I snorted once more as I yelled out:  "Azengrade. No matter how much I wish for you to die, I can not allow it to come at the cost of billions of lives. Leave now."
