Bloodline of Gods: The Genius at Olympus Academy!

Now that it had cornered Aiden like a trapped mouse, it wouldn't mind tormenting the poor little human.

After causing it so much grief, there was no way it would let Aiden die so easily.

But Aiden, who was on the brink of despair, filled with no hope of survival, saw the mocking look on the face of the Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor and heard something crack inside of him.

"Fuck!"

A curse escaped from Aiden's lips as his expression turned foul.

God damn it! He couldn't even die with dignity!

It was one thing to die in despair, but to die mocked and abused by a mere beast?

No fucking way!

Aiden just couldn't accept it.

He was on the brink of despair, teetering on the edge of madness, but the mockery from the Weeping Soul Serpent had sent him over the edge.

The boy who knew his death was inevitable stood up once again in defiance.

But it was just his ugly, petty, and despicable spite. Discover hidden stories at My Virtual Library Empire

Thinking about it clearly, Aiden was losing his mind from being mocked by a creature that couldn't even speak.

Maybe he was going insane?

No, maybe he was already insane.

Perhaps from the time he started running through the endless tunnels with his life on the line, he had already started teetering towards insanity.

Aiden didn't care. He looked up at the Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor with a chilling smile as he spoke.

"Is it fun?" he asked.

"Is it fun to see me running around like a headless chicken, squirming and struggling to survive?"

Roar!

The Soul Serpent Emperor wailed, and a shockwave echoed as all the subordinate Weeping Soul Serpents rose to their feet as if to pounce on Aiden.

Instantly, Aiden's body tensed as he got into a fighting stance.

But the attack he was waiting for simply never came. Looking up, Aiden could see the Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor shaking its head as its entire body trembled, almost as if it was laughing.

Aiden saw this sight and gnashed his teeth.

He had been tricked again.

Fine! If that damn beast wants to mess around, I'll show it that two can play at that game!

While the beast was laughing, Aiden reached into his hand and pulled out an object.

The second he pulled out his hand, the distortion in the air seemed to stir as the eyes of every creature present locked onto Aiden's hand.

And that was because floating in his palm was a beautiful, glowing Netherspring Lotus.

Seeing that he had finally gotten the beast's attention, Aiden smirked.

"This is what you're after, right? Despite being a mere beast, you must have put in a lot of effort to grow it to this stage."

"You completely hid your presence from the academy and even created a fake Weeping Soul Serpent King to take attention away from you."

Aiden didn't know if it was because it was the first time it had spoken to a human, but the Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor seemed to be lingering on Aiden's every word.

Aiden wasn't one to complain either, so he just carried on.

"You caused me to reach the end, ran me ragged, and cut off all hope. By all measures, you've won, so let me leave you with one last sentence."

The Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor was the proud ruler of its race. A being so talented that it had already broken past the racial scale and done something even the brilliant minds at Olympus Academy had not expected.

Seeing Aiden's serious look, the Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor raised its head arrogantly into the sky once more.

In its eyes, now that Aiden was approaching death, he was finally going to acknowledge its greatness.

Although Aiden's death was still inevitable and would still take place without question, at the very least, it would make Aiden's death swift.

But much to the beast's shock, instead of any honorable words leaving Aiden's mouth, the beast only saw him simply raise his middle finger as a smirk grew on Aiden's face.

"Go eat shit and die, you land-crawling bastard!"

As Aiden spoke, he wickedly opened his mouth, stuffed the entire Netherspring Lotus inside, and swallowed it in one bite, not leaving a single piece behind!

They say you can see someone's true character in the face of death, and that statement couldn't be more true!

In the face of death, Aiden was no true hero, nor was he an honorable adversary. He was just one hell of a petty bastard!

As soon as Aiden swallowed the Netherspring Lotus, the air seemed to freeze.

It was a sight so unexpected that even the Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor was frozen in shock and couldn't react.

Remember, a potion containing only half a leaf was enough to make Aiden's flames go out of control.

After swallowing the entire thing, he would be lucky if he didn't explode on the spot!

But regardless of how good his luck was, his death was inevitable, and it would be one of the most brutal—his body decaying from the overload of divinity.

Nobody could survive such a rush of divinity and stay sane.

Even if you were going to die anyway, why not face your death swiftly and quickly like a man? Why torture yourself with such a gruesome and horrible death?!

Aiden, of course, knew this, but he didn't care.

After sweating, struggling, and despairing, he had come this far not to be made fun of by a fucking snake!

No! Aiden wouldn't allow this annoying beast to have the last laugh.

If the Weeping Soul Serpent Emperor knew that this happened not because of Aiden's strong will but because it chose to mock him, it would probably pass out on the spot.

It had just wanted to flaunt its might a little.

Who knew it would piss off this unreasonable guy so much that he would rather die in agony than leave it a way out!

The poor divine beast had completely underestimated the full power of sheer human pettiness!
