Half of his head is gone, but he is still grinning. He is not just grinning but a grin of a madman. A few seconds later, the flesh missing on his head started to move and some tentacle stuff started to pop up and stitch itself. It was like an alien mutation thing. Soon, the missing flesh reappeared and his head returned to normal.

"You catch it fast, wolf boy. Perhaps I have overlooked you."

Reloading the gun and throwing the empty bullets away, I aimed the gun once more at him.

"Good that you are now paying attention to me. Now, have a taste of some of my bullets.

BANG!

This time around, he didn't let the bullet pass through his body and instead deflects it with the tentacles that seem to grow on his body. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂

Sigma didn't just stand there as well and started sending her golden chains as well, parrying all the tentacles as well. As the Pope is busy defending and attacking us, a stray cannonball suddenly flies off and destroyed half of the Pope's body. The pope was surprised once more and he looked at his wounds his face is no longer showing a smug smile but seriousness now.

He waved his hands and tentacles suddenly spiked up going straight to Tsuru who shot off the cannonball. But then, Atlas waved his sword and his dark energy blast decimated the tentacles in one go. He repeated it as the Pope also repeated his attacks which made the Pope a little bit annoyed.

"I never expected someone who serves the darkness would help the humans."

Atlas didn't say anything but just goes ahead to defend Lucia and Tsuru alongside the people who are unconscious.

"I think I shouldn't hold back too much. Now that I got some life essence, perhaps I should use them to fuel it up."

Dark energy fuels up his body. The aura of the darkness suddenly wells upon him that his body has been covered with the dark energy which slowly created a black armor that paladins wear. He even got a shield and sword that paladins use, the only difference is that it was clad of dark energy and not the holy energy that Sigma uses. He opened up his wings and the white wings he have changed to black and metallic armor also appeared as well. Basically, he became a knight like Atlas as well.

"It's enough playtime."

Before I can react, the pope disappears from where he was standing and sent me flying. I managed to block the attack but it was not enough for me to fully stop the blast I was still sent flying into the distance.

Sigma released her chains but before they can even reach the Pope, the gold chains started to produce rust and crumble to dust. Sigma is not shocked but she is now furious and so she released her other skills that produce holy magic.

"[Spears of the Heavens]!"

Multiple golden spears pierced through the Pope and the pope screamed in pain.

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

I thought she got him but then, the Pope suddenly started laughing and pulling the spears out of his body which made Sigma frown.

"Hahahahaha! You thought I was having a painful scream? Sorry to disappoint you all but I am not even feeling that attack at all. Are you all even trying? Because I don't even feel it much."

He easily throws away all of the golden spears and all of them vanished. Before Sigma can react, the Pope appeared in front of her and grabbed her chin, and lifted her up, which made Sigma struggle to get herself free.

"I am the angel that is favored by the holiness. The one who will purge the world of everything. I am the new ruler of this world. Anything related to the holy energy will not even work against me. Don't even think of harming me with it since I won't even be affected.

The Pope is enjoying the face of the struggling Sigma that he didn't even realize I was coming close and released a charged-up punch to his helmet.

CRACK!

He got forced to free Sigma as a result but he was damaged as the wound on his lip didn't recover.

"If the holy energy will be obsolete as a result, then we will just use something that is not holy then."

Then, another punch arrived in his face. Destroying the helmet immediately. And I punched the face of the Pope again.

"This is for my friends that you made us fight and tried to get killed!

BANG!

"This is for Sigma who went powerless because of your plot armor sh*t."

BANG!

"This is for pissing me off,"

BANG! BANG BANG! BANG!

I didn't stop punching the guy. I don't care if he thinks I am crazy or if he will revive again. I continue punching him. His face caved in but I continue punching him. He tried to squirm his way out but the punches of my gauntlet continues to arrive. It didn't pause even for a second and he continues to receive it again and again until the final punch...

He lost his head completely and turned into mush. I didn't stop there and punched through his chest and pulled away his heart by ripping it out of his body. This causes his body to spasm wildly and he didn't even get to do much until it stopped doing so and he died.

[You have killed the Corrupted Pope of the Dark God]!

[Unfortunately, he is not classified as a monster so you won't get any experience and loot for killing him. However, you will gain honor and reputation points as a result.]

I crushed his heart to mush and went to Sigma immediately. She lost a significant amount of health after being just held by the chin by the Pope. I let her drink the potion on my inventory and she helplessly drinks the content despite not feeling too well.

"What happened to the Pope?" Sigma asked.

"He died. But I don't think it is over just yet."

"But he died right? How come you are saying it's not yet over?"

"Because the god that is controlling the Pope has yet to appear and make his appearance, right? I know you are listening right there."

Someone in the darkness walks out, clapping and revealing himself.

"What...?But... you were dragged into the other dimension by Alain..."

The person who appeared was actually none other than the strategist himself, the person named the Tactician by many.

"I didn't know someone would notice my presence here." 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

"Your presence might be blending in this place but you still stick out like a sore thumb. I can easily see you there."

"Impossible. Shouldn't Alain have defeated him? He dragged this guy to the other dimension that appeared before!"

"Right? I should have died back there. Unfortunately for my friend, he made the right move to the wrong person. After all, I have my own methods of fighting and in a direct confrontation, I wouldn't even bother using my real body."

"Then..." Sigma couldn't believe it.

"Yep. Alain is now dead. He sacrificed his life to kill my copy and stop it from escaping there. What a valiant effort to be honest. But what a waste. We could have used that effort of his to make the world ours."

Bang!

A gunshot rang as I pulled the trigger of the gun and put a bullet in the Tactician's forehead. The tactician fell down to the ground and died.

"You already know that I won't die like that, boy. You know that I won't be using my own body to fight back if I knew I would be endangering my body of death."

I didn't respond and waited for him to make another clone of his. However, he didn't use it, and instead, darkness swallowed up the body of the Pope and the dead clone.

"It's a shame that the Pope died immediately. He thought he was already the perfect individual who can handle my abilities but I guess not as he died so easily without much effort. I should have guessed it wasn't going to be that easy of a feat to destroy someone like that."

"So you are going to swallow up his body and use the essence of both his body and soul?" I asked.

"You are knowledgeable for someone who doesn't possess a natural pair of wings. Indeed. The Pope might have been useful for a little while when he was still alive but he died already so why not maximize the profit and use his body as fuel for my own use instead?"

A dark shadowy figure appeared before us. The only discerning feature I can say that I have seen on the guy is the red glowing pair of orbs before us. Since it started blinking, I can easily assume it was the pair of eyes.

"Perhaps it is time to take matters into my own hands."
