765 Break for me

Steadying his mind, Liam took out a black bead, not one of the empty ones and not the one that had the dragon's or the lizardmen's souls in them. Instead, he took out the black bead that was already completely filled with human souls.

This was one of the items he had acquired from the dark mages who had sacrificed the villagers. The souls of the villagers were essentially trapped inside. 

Perhaps the right thing to do here was to release the innocent souls and put them to rest, but unfortunately, he was not in a position to do the right thing at the moment.

Liam did not hesitate as he broke and shattered this bead, pulling out all the souls within the bead in a single move.

The next instant, white mist exploded from the bead, just like when Dimitri, the dark elf, used the attack on him. But the him now was much stronger than the him back then. So he did not twitch and convulse in the pain as the numerous souls banged against him from all sides.
