Chapter 55: Trace (3)

" You still don't fear me....? " Richard questions Donovan for he still increases his pressure over him.

As he increases his dominance, Donovan still sharply stares at him while still hardly holding the Memory Shard in his hand.

" Of course not, since the Shard is still in my hands then your threats mean nothing. " Donovan counter-threats him as he touched the Memory Shard and makes it glow which made the investigator go confused.

" What are you doing with it? " he asks.

" Oh, this... " Donovan answers.

" I'm just slowly crushing this Shard in order to attain not only the memories but also to attain what's left of Grimdark Dragon's magic. " Donovan explains which shocks both Carlos and Richard.

" What did you say!!!? " Carlos says for he then tells Donovan to not crush for it will erase the evidence needed to blackmail the investigators to stop the investigation including the Nyx Nocterra House themselves, but Donovan had another idea as he then looks menacingly at the investigator and tells him that he too knows how to absorb other sources of power as Donovan then shows the investigator that he can absorb the Memory Shard's power which makes him more afraid.

" You... can absorb... it....? " the investigator asks.

" Of course, I can... " Donovan says while using his skill.

< Skill: Power Source Absorption (Active) -- lvl.3 >

< Enables the user to absorb any power source from nearby sources. >

...

As Donovan uses the skill, the investigator becomes enraged as he increases his Mana and absorbs more Mana from Nature in order to make himself more powerful in order to threaten Donovan with his pure pressure since he had no other strategy to threaten Donovan now.

" You bastard!!! give it to me!!!! " the investigator lost his cool for he now let his emotions and his Mana Pressure do the threats for his mind had no other idea to make new and effective threats to make Donovan give the Shard to him.

While he gets more pressuring and emotional, Donovan still manages his composure by making himself threatening without any show off of power as he threatens him with skills as he still absorbs the very shard.

" What is it, investigator? " Donovan asks Richard as it made him flinch.

" You can't attack, can't you? "

" Now as I slowly increase my power with the Memory Shard's power. " Donovan mocks the investigator.

" You stupid boy, you don't know who that Shard was going to belong to... " Richard says while sweating.

" As an investigator from the Nyx Nocterra, I will take it from you!!!! " Richard says to Donovan as he now had no choice but to strike at Donovan to take the Memory Shard from him.

" Die Donovan Richter Grimshaw!!!! " Investigator Richard prepares his weapon as he swings it which Carlos then reacts as he then uses his Star Magic to create <Star Sword> to block his attacks from hitting Donovan.

" Donovan move!!! " Carlos pushes Donovan backward as he prepares to take the slash with his magic-made sword and as the two prepare to clash.

"( Wait, you fool investigator!!!! )" a voice suddenly came inside investigator Richard's mind which made him stop his attack.

" This voice..... " Richard says with his mouth while looking upwards to search where the voice came from.

"( It's me, investigator.... )" the voice says in his mind.

" Lord....., why are you communicating with me? aren't you supposed to have a... "

"( A meeting? I've made it quick in order to take over your incompetence... )"

"( NOW.... )"

"( Give me your mouth!!! )" the voice says as it begins to possess the investigator's body which made the investigator feel the possession process as another party had taken over his very vessel to communicate.

" Arrgghhh.., ggurrrggghhh..... " the possessed Richard says while looking at the two boys.

" Well, where were we? oh yes!!! " he says while looking at the two boys while throwing Richard's sword away which made the boys shocked.

"( He threw his weapon? during combat? )" Carlos asks in his mind, for this behavior really did not make sense to him for he had no idea a threatening person like Richard would surrender right after he starts the battle.

"( This behavior..., )" Donovan thought to himself.

As the boys looked at the thrown sword, the two of them begin to look at Richard as they see his eyes are changed as his iris turns white while his sclera turns black and begins to behave differently.

" Lower your weapons you two... " Richard says or whoever that possesses him right now.

" Why should we? " Carlos asks him which the possessed Richard then uses his magic to make Carlos's star sword disappear with his whims.

" My Star Sword.....!!! " Carlos was shocked to see such a thing happen before his eyes, while Carlos is confused, the possessed Richard then looks at Donovan and sees him entirely, after that, he then smiled.

" Interesting, you've changed your skin... " he says to Donovan.

" Do you have some kind of [Transformation Magic] or some sort? " he asks.

As Donovan sees Richard being strange, Donovan then uses the System's scanner in order to scan the investigator for he suspects that he is currently talking to another person who happens to communicate through investigator Richard's body.

"( Do you identify it, System? )" Donovan asks the System which gives him this result.

< Name: ? >

< Class: ? >

< Level: ? >

"( He's being possessed, isn't he? )" Donovan asks the System which replies that it is possible for the System scans another entity present inside the investigator's body, and with that, the System shows detects mysterious energy inside Richard's mind.

As Donovan talks privately to the System, investigator Richard then sees him and smiles uncharacteristically, probably this kind of gesture belongs to another entity himself.

" Well, are you surprised? " the other person asks.

" Who are you? " Donovan asks.

" Ahahaha... someone from the Nyx Nocterra of course, and the supposed owner of the very thing you hold... "

" ... and absorb, for that matter," he says.

" Where's the investigator? "

" Do you erase him from his body? or is he still in there? "

" He still exists, I only borrow him to communicate that's all. "

" I must say, your skills are impressive for a teenager, perhaps... "

" I never thought you of all of your family would learn an absorption technique... "

" Donovan Richter-Grimshaw... "
