DEVIANT

Alex’s golden flames were replaced with bright blue flames. At the center of his chest, a bright blue light shone from the new core as more blue flames poured into his body. His eyes were pinned on the Blue barrier preventing him from reaching the white flames.

A flash of greed crossed Alex’s eyes as his body began drifting forward and gathering power as he moved.

“Don’t force it! You will end up harming yourself!” the elder paled as he understood Alex’s intentions.

He cried out those words but they seemed to elude Alex’s ears as he gathered his strength and attacked the blue barrier without hesitation.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

.....

Explosions rocked the entire room as Alex’s fists were like wind, unloading countless blows in mere seconds.

Everyone watched in terror as Alex absorbed the blue flames while attacking the barrier relentlessly. Soon his entire body was blazing blue and there were countless web-shaped cracks spread across the blue barrier as white flames sipped in.

Swoosh!

Alex’s body drifted back a bit as he stretched his hands forward and a powerful suction force erupted violently.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

White flames surged through the crack and into his body causing his body to shiver and spit out blood!

“His body is rejecting the power of the white flames?” Sharyn said with a deep frown on her face.

They had all hoped Alex would get to the white flames level and become the most powerful existence of the deity race but now those dreams seemed more unrealistic.

Blegh!

Alex fell on both knees spitting out more blood. His eyes flashed and a cruel smile bloomed on his face.

Kill!

Boom!

More suction force erupted from his body as the retreating white flames were once again pulled into his body.

It felt like the heavens had crumbled when the blue wall shattered and the white flames poured in.

“I will take everything!” Alex growled as his body levitated off the ground and the three different forms of flames surged into his body uncontrollably.

He was planning to take everything back, everything that has ever been taken from him but to do this he needed strength. The strength to face the universe head on and deal with their issues alone. The strength to become a true God!

Run! Get out of here! This kid will kill us all!

A loud cry exploded from the massive palace which was currently trembling violently.

................

The chaos lasted for seven days, after which the entire royal palace was filled with cracks and holes, just a breath away from crumbling under the pressure.

Alex emerged with an indifferent look on his face as he marched forward. His body seemed to be filled and packed with energy ready to explode at any moment and on his chest was a black crystal.

“He.... He is the black flame deity... He has finally returned to us!” The elder fell on his knees and bowed.

According to the legends of the deity, if one is able to consume the three powers of the deities and combined them perfectly, he can become the black flame deity. The black flame deity is the one said to have formed the deity race in the first place.

The black crystal on Alex’s chest was surging with black flames and his body levitated forward with immense power. His hair was completely black once again but fiery like an illusion.

“We will follow you” the elder said and just like that, every member of the deity race began falling on their knees. Their eyes filled with terror and fear.

“As long as you all work with me, no one. Not even the invaders will be able to kill us off!” Alex said coldly, his eyes void of emotions.

He could feel the black flames eating up his emotions as well. After consuming all of the three flames, he felt detached from this world. His pitch-black eyes seemed to peer into the abyss and understand the secrets of the world.

Pa!

Alex’s eyes returned to normal as he felt a slender hand grip his tightly and both hands share warmth.

“Hey” Sharyn muttered and Alex smiled sweetly. His eyes shifted to those on their knees.

“The Nameless family seems to be finally growing” Alex muttered.

He could remember when he started this group. The founding members betrayed him when the world turned on him. Only a few stood by him and the mother of his child left him as soon as she saw a chance to survive.

Since then he has been trying his best to survive while fighting other people’s battles but now he can finally fight his war and make people fight his battles.

Seeing everyone on their knees, Alex felt intoxicated by the feeling. He could feel his body trembling violently as his intense aura surged forward.

“What now?” Sharyn asked with widened eyes.

“We will take this world and make it ours” Alex said calmly.

“Contact Silver and have him prepare for my return... I can finally set things straight and take back all I lost” Alex said slowly and inhaled deeply.

“Contact our people and have them prepare the teleportation panels. I will need to return as soon as possible” Alex said and Sharyn nodded before stepping out to carry out his orders.

He gazed into the scorching sky above and a stern look could be seen in his eyes. He could feel the looming threat and he hated the fact that he had no other choice but to wait. Meanwhile, the darkness threatening to destroy the world was still spreading and slowly overwhelming the alliance and pushing further into the realm. Even without being told, Alex could tell these people needed him. Seeing how excited they were just because he turned out to be their messiah in their religion. It felt like they desperately needed the help but couldn’t come out and ask. But not anymore.

With the appearance of the black flame deity, they have no problems changing masters.
