Souta smirked and said, "As if I\'d doubt you. Let\'s just finish this man."

Swoosh!!

There was one reason why Souta didn\'t attack while Rowan was talking. It was because he was silently absorbing the energy of the monster orb on his back to recover his best feram. Since Rowan had given him this opportunity, then he wouldn\'t hesitate and recover his strength.

He also warned Yuko not to do anything. He let Rowan take the stage for a while to recover his strength.

This overconfident guy will fall soon.

Souta swung the vajra sword in his hand and a red energy blade shoot out. Then, seven shadows emerged beside him and attacked Rowan in different directions.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Rowan clicked his tongue in annoyance as he waved his left hand. The golden bell above him launched several sound waves at the seven shadows. Then, he raised his right hand and caught the red energy blade before shattering it into pieces.

Bang!

"I can do it. I can protect you from the people of this world."

Rowan said as he stared at Souta. Then, he saw a figure pass beside him. He turned around and quickly caught the spear.

Alice gritted her teeth and she launched a kick but was smashed by a sound wave from above. Her figure crashed on the ground causing a huge crater.

Boom!

Rowan didn\'t have a time to deal a finishing blow as Souta and Yuko appeared in front of him.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The three exchanged high-speed blows and their attacks generated powerful shockwaves that swept out the whole area.

Roar!!

Yuko roared as she tanked several sound waves before she opened her mouth and used [Burning Shout II]. Flames surged out and engulfed Rowan but Rowan easily dispersed the flames with his might.

Hmm?

Rowan sensed a presence above him. He looked up only to see Souta slashing his sword in his direction.

[Crimson Moon]!

[Archetype: Vajra Extremity]!

[Fifth Form: Rage of the Thunder God]!

[Bestrou]!

With the help of Saya containing the enormous energy in the sword, he fused the three skills into one slash.

"There\'s no need to join you. You\'re not Rowan, the Clan Leader of the Witch Clan, so stop manipulating the Clan Leader, or else I will kill you sooner or later."

Souta said in a cold tone as the slash landed on Rowan\'s body.

Ugh!

A huge cut appeared on Rowan\'s chest. He stared at Souta as blood spurted out of his wound.

"If you want to rule those people then I can help you. I can help you reach monster lord level..."

Then, energy beams smashed his body to the ground.

Doranjan, Yuko, and the red dragon fired their [Bestrou] at the Clan Leader.

BOOOMM!!!

Souta stared at the huge explosion. A cracking sound echoed behind him and when he heard it, he realized that the fifth evolution monster orb on his back was drained. All he left was the energy in the monster orb and [Nebula Heart]. If he couldn\'t defeat Rowan before he run out of energy then they would suffer defeat.

He looked down and saw that his hands were shaking. His body was reaching his limit and the same for his parasite. He had to finish this as soon as possible.

Fighting an injured shackled realm was already hard. Then, what if Rowan didn\'t get injured by Eilish before? He would finish Souta and the rest within ten minutes.

The shackled realm experts that he fought in the Ladros City was easier. After all, those Seven-Circle Officers couldn\'t use their energy and their bodies were weakened to the limit because of fighting Teacher Bargan. They were on their death\'s door, unlike Rowan who was only weakened.

At this moment, Amanda had arrived on the scene.

"Souta!!" She shouted in a loud voice.

"Hm?" Souta turned and raised his eyebrows. He saw Amanda looking at him in the eyes.

"I-I remember everything!" She said.

\'Yeah, yeah, the system is the reason why you remembered your past. You should\'ve thanked me.\' Souta didn\'t change his expression. He kept looking at Amanda waiting for her to say everything.

Boom!

The ground trembled and the smoke was blown away. Rowan was standing in the center of the crater while looking at them with rage in his eyes.

Souta turned his head and Amanda\'s voice echoed in the surrounding area.

"My Uncle, Rowan, isn\'t the same as before! He is the one who killed my mother and father, the previous Clan Leader, yet he is also the one who saved me in the past! He, My Uncle, is the reason why I\'m alive! He is being controlled by someone!! That\'s why... Witches! Stop fighting and help us fight uncle!"

Amanda\'s voice was heard by every people. It caused the two sides to stop fighting as they all turned their heads.

"You are accusing me, your own uncles, of a murder that he didn\'t do," Rowan said as he looked at Amanda. "How could I kill my own brother? You\'re truly desperate, my niece."

"Uncle! I know you\'re there trying to fight the one who\'s controlling you! If you give us a nod then every witch here will know that you are being controlled so please help us one more time for our clan!"

Amanda shouted at Rowan. She still remembered what he said to her when he saved her life. At that time, she was still a child and couldn\'t remember everything that happened but now... She realized that someone was manipulating the Witch Clan, no, not just the Witch Clan but the entire war decades ago was planned by some people.

"Argh!!!"

Rowan suddenly gritted his teeth.

"N-No... Don\'t fight back!!"

Blood flows out of his mouth as he slowly gives Amanda a nod.

"You fuckers!!!!"

At this time, everyone realized that Amanda was saying the truth. The Clan Leader of the Witch Clan was being controlled by someone.

"Here me!!! Witches!! I, Rowan Brune, will pass the title of the Clan Leader to my niece, Amanda Brune, today! Follow her words and respect her just like how you respect me!! I have one last wish! Kill me!! Don\'t hesitate!!"

Rowan shouted and his voice reverberated throughout the entire area. Everyone heard his declaration, even the witches that evacuated have heard his words. It was his struggle, to tell the truth to his clansmen as he finally saw some hope.

On the other side, Elder Guan and Elder Hanmi stopped fighting as they heard everything.

"I already told you..." Elder Guan said.

"How can I believe as you don\'t have any evidence to prove your words." Elder Hanmi said.

"You believe me now, right? We need to stop Clan Leader now." Elder Guan said as he glanced in the direction of the Clan Leader.

Suddenly, something changed with the witches around them. The witches\' eyes turned red and they started killing each other.

At the same time, Rowan\'s voice had sounded once again.

"You leave me no choice!! I can\'t use the witches now so I\'ll just destroy it! Do you all think that I didn\'t do anything in the past decades?"

Rowan laughed as he opened his arms widely.

Souta looked around and heard a familiar sound in his mind.

*Ding!*

[Special Quest Triggered!]

[Kill]: An unknown person is controlling Rowan\'s body. Using Rowan as a medium, the unknown person spread out his control to most of the witches in the clan. The only way to stop it is to kill Rowan. Kill Rowan before half of the Witches have died.

Reward: ???

"Shit!!"

Souta cursed when he read the quest. His energy burst out as he charged towards Rowan without hesitation.

"Everyone! Follow me!!"

"On it," Alice said as she flew towards Rowan.

"Still resisting?"

Rowan looked at them coldly as he clashed with Alice and Souta. Soon, Yuko, Doranjan, and the red dragon joined the battle. The five of them worked together to fight the powerful Rowan.

BOOOMM!!

The two elders couldn\'t help at all as they tried to stop their subordinates from killing each other. Even witches that have been knocked down by Yenxa\'s poison have gotten up.

Elder Guan had a total of nineteen Annihilation Realm witches under him and Elder Hanmi had a total of twenty-three Annihilation Realm witches. And all of them were under the influence of control. They were killing each other including those Extermination Realm witches.

The situation quickly turned grave as the two elders didn\'t want to kill their subordinates. They hold back their strengths to protect them.

"Is this for real? Just who is the person that could control our Clan to this extent?" Elder Guan gritted his teeth in frustration.

...

[Heavenly Demon\'s Aura]!

Alice stabbed her spear repeatedly and Rowan deflected her attacks with his two hands. The aura surrounding Alice was heavy and powerful but Rowan could endure it.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"You\'re a powerful demon but you still haven\'t broken your shackles so it\'s my win," Rowan said as he avoided her spear before he delivered a powerful blow on her stomach.

Bang!
