《Life of a Villain》Chapter 13: Inheritance (II)

"I am ready,"
Andy confirmed it as he inhaled deeply. His heart was pounding and a flood of emotions rose within him.
When the Demon Lord heard Andy's response, he nodded and tossed a vial with a pill inside of it.
Andy snatched the vial and carefully examined it. His gaze was drawn to a bright red pill inside. On that pill, he even noticed small veins pulsing. He was taken aback because this was his first encounter with something like this. When he turned to face the Demon Lord for an answer, he shrugged and said,
"As I said before, you will no longer be human. That pill will completely transform your body, giving you one of the best bodies for cultivation in the world."
He was taken aback by the Demon Lord's words, but he carefully took out the pill and swallowed it right away.
He felt nothing after swallowing the pill. His gaze was drawn to the Demon Lord, who was closely monitoring him. Just as he was about to ask why, a warm sensation spread from his stomach throughout his entire body. He closed his eyes, wanting to relish the relaxing sensation.
Regardless of what the Demon Lord claimed, he felt no pain, let alone hellish pain. But then a shrill scream came out of his mouth.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
He had the sensation that someone was pulling on every vein in his body. It's as if every bone in his body is being crushed and every muscle in his body is tearing apart. This was the first time he had experienced anything like it. Despite the Demon Lord's warning about the pain, he didn't give it much thought. But after experiencing it firsthand, he actually realized he was completely wrong.
His brain activated the defensive mechanism as he began to feel dizzy and then passed out.

The Demon Lord, who was watching the entire scene, sighed as he noticed blood mixed with black substance pouring out of Andy's skin as his entire body twitched on the ground.
"I told him before," he murmured, waving his hand. Andy's body floated in the air as he placed it on the altar.
A white burst of light escaped from his palm and entered Andy's body as he placed his hand on the chest. However, as the white light faded, his body became slightly translucent.
For the next month, a boy's shrill scream could be heard from time to time in a lonely place. On the altar, a nearly transparent man stood next to the body of a boy who was twitching incessantly.
After a while, his body stopped twitching, and he was breathing calmly with a peaceful expression on his face. With waist-length, whitish silvery hair and milk-like fair skin, the boy's face looked devilishly handsome.
The man next to him fixed his gaze on the boy. It's like he's admiring the world's most valuable treasure.
He sighed and muttered to himself as he stared off into the distance, "We will exact our vengeance. Nobody will escape unscathed."
But then his gaze was drawn to the boy, who groaned and slowly opened his eyes.
The boy was perplexed for a moment, as if his brain was trying to recall what had just happened, before hurriedly sitting up and looking toward an almost transparent man who was staring at him.
"What happened to you?" A young boy exclaimed. He was astounded to notice that the man had become almost transparent as if he were about to vanish.
"How are you feeling?" the man inquired with a smile.
The boy was stunned for a moment before his gaze was drawn to the sight of fair white hands. A strange thought arose in him as he looked at his skin, which appeared to be so soft that any girl would be jealous of it. He didn't feel as weak as he had before; instead, his body was brimming with energy.

He hurriedly stood up and was surprised to discover that he was taller than before, but something was missing. When he looked down, he realized he was almost naked, with only a piece of cloth tied around his waist.
As he looked at the man in front of him, a strange expression formed on his face; the man shrugged his shoulders and said, "I told you before, the day will come when you won't be human."
"So, who am I?" When he heard the man's words, the boy blurted out. He thought little it when that man told him before.
"You don't have to be concerned about that because you are greater than a human now, and the blood of celestials is flowing inside you. Anyway, you'll learn more about them eventually, but for now, come here," As his face became solemn, the man said.
His body shuddered for a moment as he heard the man's response. Memories of the agonizing pain he endured before falling unconscious flooded his mind.
He stood in front of the man, and as the man touched his head, a flood of information poured into his mind. He could even feel his veins throbbing.
Suddenly, he noticed a book floating in front of him. His gaze was drawn to the six words in front of him.
"The Great Tome of the Emperor"
While he was engrossed in the book, the man suddenly transformed into a white light that passed between his brows.
