Sacrificing all the corpses indeed took a long time, and by the time they were done night had already fallen. Dorian couldn't help but be fascinated when he saw the Heart of the Mountain.
It was shaped like a human heart, its outer layer transparent and its innermost center shining with an orange light. It was much bigger than a human heart though, it was more than three meters tall.
Moreover, when he looked at it, Dorian could feel a potent power coursing through it. Much bigger than anything he had ever seen.
After the sacrifices had been done, Dorian said "The plan is as such. I happen to be a Runemaster. Using some runes, we will set a trap for the demon. It isn't immune to fire, is it?"
Jun replied "Well actually yes, it is. To a normal fire that is. But if your runes have created the fire… Then I think its effects will be weakened, but not useless."
Dorian nodded and said "No matter, I'll use something else. How does the demon appear?"
Jun said "Here's the problem. When it appears, it does so by opening a portal, which is highly destructive towards its surroundings. So even if you write a rune and conjure it on it, it will be destroyed by the portal."
Dorian frowned and said "That is problematic. Doesn't matter, I'll figure something out. To subdue the spirits, once I have suppressed them, how do I make them stay? Do I need to sign a contract?"
Jun shook his head and replied "There's no need for any spell. Once you have dominated their minds, all you need to do is to mark their soul with your mark, the white flame, and throw them in your mind house. This is where they will stay when they aren't summoned."
Dorian nodded "Good. While I go prepare, help me by shredding the weapons and armors, turn them into scrap of metal."
The two nodded and immediately started working.
As he looked at the weapons and armors, Dorian couldn't help but feel that something weird was going on. Despite having killed a little more than 40 gangsters, with 30 elites, he almost didn't get anything. He barely had a few grey quality items and some basic ability books which allowed him to upgrade his [Basic Throwing Mastery] to level 10.
The only really valuable thing he got was a skill, but it was for swords so he decided he would sell it. But as his books related to swords accumulated, he couldn't help but be tempted by it, the swordsmanship books were the most common after all, he already had enough to upgrade it to level 10 and some spare.
But Dorian's logic told him that the rarer a thing is, the more valuable it is, and on the contrary the less it is, the less valuable it will be. So he didn't use the books and kept them, to sell them later.
However, Dorian suspected that the more he killed a type of enemy, the less he would get from them. It seemed that for now, the only source of treasure he would get when he killed would be from Charles.
Now that he thought of it though, Dorian wondered where Charles would get his books. He wasn't in the Police anymore, and while at his house Dorian hadn't seen any special book or any other kind of item.
But he decided to trust him, there was little to nothing he could do, nor was there any sense in suspecting him, he had only helped him since he arrived after all.
With those thoughts, Dorian went up the cave, destroyed the spirits and got outside. He felt that it was colder than last night, but his [Basic Ice Resistance] level had gotten high enough to not have his Agility attribute drop anymore.
This was good news, as right now Dorian's Agility was nearing what he believed to be the superhuman limit, 20 Attributes points. Seeing how strong he was with 23 of Strength, 20 of speed should be amazing.
But of course, what Dorian awaited the most was for his base attributes to reach 20 so that he would get other special skills like with intelligence.
Once outside, Dorian started gathering snow, making snowballs. All of them were the size of fists, and he made five of them. He could make many more, but he wouldn't be able to put runes on them all.
After all, he couldn't just write the runes and be done, there needed to be a sacrifice. The easiest way is to use blood, but it can only be the blood of the caster.
But with the strength of the runes he was about to make, plus their size, Dorian couldn't use his blood unless he wanted to suffer from blood loss.
So Dorian returned to the market where he had stolen food when he first arrived. This was the only place he could think of to take what he needed.
But as arrived in the market, the doors around suddenly burst open.
Dorian looked around surprised and expected Red Scorpion members to assault him. He didn't mind it, it would be easier than to search for them.
But that wasn't them. They were ordinary citizens. A few armed with short knives and cleavers stood in front, while some had bows behind.
One of them shouted "Here he is! Kill him!" But even though he said that, none of them dared to move. Dorian didn't do anything either, he just looked at those surrounding him. Apart from the obvious fear, he could see anger on their faces.
So he asked "Why are you attacking me? I don't remember harming any of you. I am even dealing with the scums of this city."
A thin middle aged woman replied with a sob "The scums… Those are our sons, murderer!" Dorian looked at her, making her shrink back, and said "Your sons? What should I have done? Should I have ignored them? Ignore them when they tried to kill me?"
No one answered him. Dorian sneered and said "Anyway, what can you do? I killed hundreds of people who could kill ten of you, do you think you can do anything to me?"
A man replied "We can't, but the Lord can!" Dorian rolled his eyes and said "I'm cleaning the plague infecting this city for him, why would he arrest me? Now, of you would let me, I'm here to take something. You either stop this joke, and I pay for it, or I will take it by myself."
Dorian didn't plan on buying it at first, but now that they were here he might as well do it. But as they were about to retreat, a man aiming his bow at Dorian's back felt his hands numb and loosened the string, releasing the arrow.
Dorian felt danger and the sound of an arrow flying. He stepped back, dodging the arrow, and threw a dagger at the shooter. He could barely see the dagger flying at him before it entered his throat.

Everyone was shocked, but then the ones in front roared and rushed at Dorian, while those behind fired their arrows at Dorian.
But they were ordinary people in the end. Of the 12 arrows fired at Dorian, only three threatened him, while all the others missed him and actually hit the rushing villagers.
But even for the three dangerous arrows, Dorian unsheathed his daggers and blocked each of them. Then, he rushed at the attacking villagers.
But right as he was about to kill them, Dorian stayed his hand, and only knocked them unconscious. They were only angry parents, although their sons and daughters indeed tried to kill him, he still killed them, so killing their family too… He decided to be light.
Even though it was a little harder not to kill them, it was still done easily by Dorian. When he took care of six of them, the rest fled in fear. Only one unlucky man died this night because he couldn't hold his arrow.
When he finished them, Dorian went to steal the things he came for. They were herbs, special herbs that were usually used to treat colds and frost bites.
As he left, Dorian muttered with a smile "They even left the door opened, how nice of them."
