Maroch ate many of these berries in his immortal life, and all of them tasted horrible. Because all previous Elven Priest had been corrupted, so their berries of strength also tasted disgusting.

Honestly, Urduk/Maroch did not need this stuff to fight the alpha wolf. He could kill the alpha wolf with only one snap.

But… when he saw the berry, he thought it was a bit more special. Because it was given to him, he didn't need to steal or destroy for this…

'What can go wrong, anyway? I am immune to any kind of poison. The worst I can get is nausea.' Maroch thought.

He swallowed the berry. He waited for two minutes before it finally hit him.

"Urk!" Maroch slumped on the ground immediately.

"Maroch!" Priest Erolith approached Maroch immediately, afraid that something had happened with him, "Did something happened? Did my berry do something to your body?"

…

'Fuck, this feels fantastic,' Maroch was intoxicated in pleasure. He felt jolts of electricity whenever he breathes. It was surging all over his body, tingling around and tempting him.

It was the best thing Maroch/Urduk ever tasted. His corrupted soul started calling the name of that Elven Priest because his soul realized that this was the perfect Elven Priest for him. No matter how crazy he must be, the purest and most beautiful shall be his. He needed to own this guy.

Because his soul said so.

'Erolith Virdhitas… Erolith Virdhitas… Erolith Virdhitas…'

'You shall be mine. Because your purest soul shall complete my corrupted soul, like Yin and Yang, we will be together forever in harmony.'

'My purest… the soul I've longed forever…'

[Pupa: Ding! Urduk's Fatemeter increases to 80%. Bro, what the heck?! What did you do?]

[Wait, what?! The whole 65% increase in Fatemeter?! How is that possible?]

Both Pupa and Yunyu were shocked, but they didn't stay stupefied for a long time. Because Maroch suddenly got up and cracked his knuckles. Maroch grinned at Priest Erolith and said, "Thank you for the berry, Your Divinity. Now I understand what I'm searching for."

Maroch dashed towards the corrupted alpha wolf and punched the wolf hard.

"Big Ero, watch me. I will make you proud," King Elduin said. He also jumped towards the wolf and slashed the wolf's leg. The corrupted alpha wolf who looked majestic a few minutes ago was now in a sorry state. It couldn't even put up a fight against King Elduin and Maroch.

In fact, from Priest Erolith's perspective, Elduin and Maroch seemed to be competing against each other on which person could hurt the corrupted alpha wolf more.

[Ouch, that must've been hurt.] Yunyu commented when he saw Elduin sashed the wolf's tail.

[Pupa: I think this is because your berry of strength is way too effective. Since you are the purest elf. I just don't understand why the circumstances seem to be supporting you so much? You are clearly a dirty hoe, and the world still recognizes you as the purest.]

[Hehe, you know, Pupa. I'm definitely the darling of the world~]

King Elduin and Maroch finished the corrupted alpha wolf together. Maroch sliced the alpha wolf's body in half with his claws, while Elduin slashed the head with his Great Sword. The corrupted alpha wolf fell on the ground with dark blood flowing out of its body.

The corrupted wolf packs got scared when they saw their alpha died, and they ran away from Elduin and Maroch. Elduin hurriedly ran towards his Big Ero with a big smile on his face, "Big Ero, did you see how strong I am? Did you get raptured by my skill when I killed that alpha wolf?"

King Elduin was so fierce when he fought against the wolves, but when he ran towards his Big Ero, his face became gentle and excited, like a puppy waiting for his master to praise him.

Priest Erolith smiled and patted Elduin's head, "You are doing great, Elduin. As expected from the youngest and strongest Elven King, I know that you can grow into the strongest elf ever existed."

Feeling satisfied with the praise, Elduin had a cheery smile on his face. Although the dark blood around his body said otherwise.

Maroch/Urduk saw how close King Elduin and Priest Erolith were. Even though he had corrupted Elduin, it seemed that Erolith's purity would cleanse all those corrupted as long as there was enough time.

He needed stronger stimulation for Elduin, so he would be thoroughly corrupted, irredeemable, and Erolith would forever be his.

Because Elduin and Erolith were indeed in love with each other, Maroch needed to interfere with their fate and separate them.

Maroch looked at the corrupted alpha wolf's corpse. There was still some corruption energy inside before it dissipated and was absorbed back into his body. Maroch had a malicious idea in his head. He used his spell and created a vengeful wolf spirit to make one last attack before vanishing completely.

The vengeful wolf spirit growled at Elduin and Erolith, especially Elduin. Because he was the one who killed the wolf.

"Go avenge yourself," Maroch said to the spirit. The vengeful wolf spirit growled and lunged at Elduin and Erolith. It targeted Elduin's back and was a sure kill if it could hit Elduin. Erolith noticed the dark shadow approached them and used his Elven Staff immediately.

"With the gentle protection of the Sacred Tree, Protect us!"

"Wha—" the gentle light from the staff slowly engulfed Elduin and Erolith, but it was a tad too late because the vengeful spirit was too fast. Elduin finally noticed the vengeful wolf spirit that lunged at them, but it was too late to raise his greatsword.

"Big Ero!" Elduin hugged his Big Ero to protect him. The vengeful wolf spirit successfully attacked Elduin and put a corruption wound on his back before disappearing, "Arrrghhh!"

"Elduin!" Erolith touched Elduin's back, and his hand was burned because of the painful corruption wound, "Ouch!"

King Elduin felt excruciating pain on his back, his gaze was getting blurry, but he still hugged his Big Ero tightly, "Big Ero… it hurts so bad…"

"I will save you! Don't worry, I will heal you!" Erolith said as he was panicking.

"Okay, I trust you, Big Ero…" King Elduin closed his eyes and fell unconscious after holding so much pain.

Priest Erolith hurriedly used his staff again, "With the gentle embrace of nature, heal my wounded lover!"

The bright light engulfed Elduin, the wounds closed slowly, but after a while, it opened again, and dark blood seeped out of Elduin's body.

"Elduin!" Erolith hurriedly stopped his spell. He got even more concerned, not knowing what to do since the only way to fully heal such a horrible wound from a corrupt beast was to return to Sacred Tree and let the tree cleansed the wound.

Maroch turned into Urduk and walked towards Erolith and unconscious Elduin leisurely, "Priest Erolith, are you worried?"

Erolith glared at Urduk, "It's you. It's you, right?! You are the one who awakened the vengeful spirit to attack Elduin!"

"What if I did?" Urduk grinned, "I intentionally awakened the vengeful spirit. Why? Because I want to."

"You!" Erolith gritted his teeth. He wanted to fight this corrupted beast, but he was no match compared to Urduk, "Just tell me how to heal Elduin! He will die if I don't heal him!"

"I can heal him slowly," Urduk said. He crouched beside Erolith and pinched Erolith's chin, "I can heal him, but you have to follow everything I said without protest. Whether I can threaten you with Elduin or not, whether I can block your magic or not, you shall obey me. Then I promise that I will heal your Little Eld."

"W—What kind of obedience?" Erolith asked nervously.

Urduk stared at the beautiful face that sucked his cock last night. He licked his fangs with a lecherous expression and said, "I can heal him with the cost of your virginity."
