"Demon of Fear and Despair?"

The robed man mumbled beneath his breath, hiding the expression within as his right hand moved toward his back, grasping something unknown as his body became incomparably tense.

Gazing at the shadow being in the distance, the instinctive fear within his being couldn't be hidden, showing the hesitation yet determination that carved through his bones.

"How unlucky, I got discovered although my invisibility was flawless... Unfortunately, I couldn't let you live."

The man revealed pity on his pale lips. It's unknown if he pitied himself for being unlucky or pitied Leo in the distance. Since Leo discovered him, even if it's unknown if Leo was a resident of the town or a traitor like themselves, he couldn't risk their plan...

He couldn't risk letting the higher-ups within the town notice their schemes.

"This is actually my first time using this skill... I hope your sacrifice is worth it."

Taking a deep breath, hiding the fear within his being as it was being replaced by deep anticipation. The man raised his head, revealing his crimson eyes under the veil of the black robe as it stared at the humanoid shadow in the distance in silence.

"Incomplete Domain... Crimson Moon!"

Swish!

In an instant, after muttering those words in a deep yet excited tone, an invisible and uncomfortable force instantly sweeps towards Leo's dumbfounded being in the far distance as red yet soft light instantly illuminates the ground.

Raising his head, Leo could see that the previous dark fissure above suddenly vanished like smoke, being replaced by a crimson-red full moon... Full-blooded to the point that the moon seems bleeding greatly.

Shifting his gaze toward the ground, the familiar humans, walking under the veil of darkness above, vanished at one point, shrouding the place in complete and uncomfortable silence... Making the place seem abandoned and forsaken by life.

"An independent space, interesting... Maybe all domains have their own independent spaces."

Leo inspects the surroundings with great interest, not feeling a bit anxious upon entering others' domain.

It's not that he was confident in himself, but he also has a domain of his own... Moreover, the strength of his domain is not that weaker than the robed man opposite him (he assumes it based on the difference of their level). The only difference between their domain is their strange effects on the beings within their control!

"It's said that only geniuses with a high affinity toward their certain elements have a small chance of learning and creating their own incomplete domain below the Core Formation realm...

"A Foundation realm being who managed to create one had at least the strength of a Quasi-Core Formation realm.

"Since most of the Core Formation realm cultivator already entered the depths of the Endless Forest... Does it mean you were only at the Foundation realm?"

The robed man muttered weakly to himself, feeling the instinctive fear within him lessened considerably.

As for the thought that the being opposite him also manages to create a domain itself, it never crosses his mind... Since the effort he spent on learning and creating a domain is not something that others could follow, causing him to believe that it was almost impossible...

"If I'm wrong then I could only blame it on my luck.'

Reaper...

The man speaks slowly and deliberately, raising his left hand as a scythe slowly materializes within his grasp, its sharp blade above was covered in blood, dripping with crimson at it corroded the ceiling below...

Its wooden black handle, releasing a smell of decay and rot instantly travelled toward the far distance... emitting an intense malevolent aura that even Leo, couldn't help but become serious.

"Scythe of terror..."

The man mumbled in understanding, gazing toward the shadow being in the distance as his eyes revealed the crimson eyes beyond...

Madness reflected within as his complete being slowly changed under the crimson moon, becoming slightly taller and leaner in the process, making it strange to one's sight as two little horns protruded outside his head... Making his figure not different from a monster.

Swish! Swish!

Waving the scythe left and right, revealing a crisp sound on its wake... The man upon gaining basic familiarity with the scythe suddenly released a laugh of madness.

Howling toward the crimson moon above as the crimson light shone on his being before gripping the weapon in his hand with closeness...

The man, after a while, finally speaks in a maddened state.

"I see... I see, I understand!

"I greatly understand!"

The man laughed before suddenly waving his scythe toward the shadow being in the distance.

This...

In an instant, the void seems to tear apart (being cut down like paper), showing the darkness beyond, being ripped by the scythe before moving toward Leo in a flash.

A hint of danger suddenly rang within Leo's soul, as he, without hesitation, dashed toward the side...

However, as he began to move, a red tendril coming from the unknown below began to restrict his movement, causing his speed to slow down...

Boom!

Ding!

-10 health!

The corner of his shadow body was cut apart, separating away from his main body before dispersing toward the atmosphere like smoke... causing his denseness to decrease.

"His domain could slow beings down? Restriction?"

Leo's mind quickly processes the information he got, not a bit affected by the damage he took as he immediately activated his Invisibility and Mist of Illusion skill in full power, instantly shrouding the place in thick grey fog as it hindered the senses of the black robe man within...

Perfectly hiding his figure as he advances in hastened speed, manipulating his shadow being as his arm instantly turns similar to a spear...

"Hehehe, you might not know this, but everything within my domain was within my sight."

The man suddenly said, tilting his head toward the side, toward Leo as he waved his scythe in full force, causing the void to collapse as it grazed the corner of Leo's being...

Ding!

-25 health...
