The figures that flew across the skies as I took out the Blood Core of the Treant"s charred body swiftly remained in the skies. Three of them glared at me in silence, a fourth descended with clear intentions to kill me, but some curiosity too. Their appearances varied, some had blue skin, blonde hair, they were twins? Also there was a cute girl behind them, but she was probably older than her looks, vampires, go figures.
The vampire that came to greet me was someone resembling a demon more than a vampire, blue skin, white hair, black horns and demonic wings sprouting from his back. He reminded me of the demons from the Thanatos Kingdom a bit. His sharp crimson eyes were staring right into my soul.
His Aura was strong.
And above all, he was using his powers to divide them into thousands of blood threads, forcing more monsters to come. I noticed eight more powerful presences coming.
Oh, are those the other eight Kings of the forest? Jackpot!
"Yes, did you lose something, mister vampire?" I asked him with a wink. "I"m just pa.s.sing by. I won"t bother you if you don"t bother me." I tried to be nice for once in my life. It worked at Grand Terra, so I gave it a shot in Abyss too.
"Strange, what kind of Vampire are you? A Fae Bloodline?" He wondered, a.n.a.lyzing my wings. "Do you know what you"ve done now, you fool? Stepping into the property my family hereby gave to me?! You broke through my barrier and now, you"re trying to sweet talk to me?"
"Hm? No I"m not a Fae Bloodline or something. Though yeah, I was technically a Vampire too? Amongst all the things I am." I nodded, as I took out the giant core of the Treant.
"Wait, huh?!" He quickly noticed I was holding the core of his precious pet. "You killed the Treant too?! You"ve committed way too many offenses to the Dracul Family! As the Lord of this territory, I will exert my authority and annihilate you. I hope you don"t mind if I drink all your blood in the process, you filthy Fae Blood!"
He didn"t even let me talk again and immediately went down to attack me. The eight Kings arrived at the same time, overflowing with powerful Blood Essence Auras. Aquamarine quickly intercepted them with Lucifer"s help, clas.h.i.+ng against them. It seems they could hold them back.
"[Vampire Demon Path Arts]: [Demonic Transformation]!"
FLAAAs.h.!.+
His body quickly underwent further transformations, his refined suit quickly broke into pieces as he became a giant, bulking, muscular blue skinned demon. His legs became goat-like legs, his horns grew several times larger, and he gained a second pair of gigantic arms.
"Wow, you can transform! I see, so even amongst Vampires there are like Paths? Are these Bloodline Powers?" I asked with interest.
"You talk like you don"t even know anything, yet you carry so much power… Don"t worry, Rank 8 or not, I"ll take you down in front of my siblings!" He roared with greed and savagery, showing me his sharp fangs.
FLAs.h.!.+
In a split second, he appeared right in front of me, his gigantic arms materializing four enormous weapons made of blood and shadows, which he swiftly used to unleash a barrage of powerful, explosive strikes against me.
CLAs.h.!.+ CLAs.h.!.+ CLAs.h.!.+
"You will give me all of your blood, you filthy trespa.s.ser!!!"
As he roared furiously, he lifted up all his weapons, combining them together into a gigantic hammer and slamming my whole body into the forest"s floor.
CRAAAs.h.!.+
The impact alone left a huge, blazing crater. Several of these one-kilometer trees fell down one after another, crimson flames spreading everywhere.
"Phew, well, that was a nice warm up." I stretched my arms, as he noticed my armor had only gained tiny cracks, and that I was totally unscathed. "You Vampires sure pack a punch but is that even enough? I hope there"s not just up to Rank 10 or you"re all dead meat against the Outer G.o.ds."
"You"re unscathed even after receiving al those attacks fueled by the power I cultivated for hundreds of years?!" He spat saliva in disbelief. "BULLs.h.i.+T!"
He rushed down towards me without even answering any questions. He was starting to p.i.s.s the f.u.c.k out of me. I intercepted his incoming blows with my armored claws, slowly a.n.a.lyzing his interesting abilities.
"[Vampire Demon Path Arts]: [Infernal Demon Runic Tattoos]!"
Suddenly, crimson-colored tattoos glowed across his body, swiftly boosting his power even further. Demonic flames surging from his body of a pale purple color. As he did, he fired them at me constantly. I felt like they were trying to suck away my energy but failed miserably and extinguished right away.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"These flames are pretty pathetic." I laughed. "Here, I"ll show you what true demonic flames look like. Make sure to remember it."
I pointed Mammon towards him, shaping him into a giant magic rifle and then overloading his body with my Essence, releasing a combination of several fire spells at once.
"[Sin-Purifying h.e.l.l Flames]!"
A gigantic blast of crimson red and orange flames collided against his body. He swiftly brushed it off with his powerful Aura Domain, quickly trying to fight back using his weapons and flames, as he fired a hundred projectiles at me.
"[Gates of h.e.l.l]! [Infernos Maximus]!"
A giant gate opened within the rifle itself, unleas.h.i.+ng what resembled a gigantic demon t.i.tan made of pure fire, engulfing all his attacks and then turning them all into ashes.
"Y-Youuu!"
As he grew more frustrated, he started growing even larger, reaching five hundred meters, resembling a true behemoth.
"DIE!"
He pointed a t.i.tanic blood hammer against me, trying to crush me to smithereens.
"You"re decently tough, I admit it." I nodded. "[Apocalypse]"
TRUUUMMM…!!
However, the rifle unleashed all the power it has been acc.u.mulating so far. The Vampire was unable to resist, his gigantic hammer quickly turned into ashes and his arms all disappeared, the beam swiftly s.h.i.+fted towards the rest of his body.
"Wha…?! I-Impossible! I- GRYYYAAAGGHH!"
His eyes widened in utter disbelief as half his body was instantly vaporized, leaving behind his standing legs and part of his hips.
Silence fell over the entire forest.
I looked into the skies with a smile, holding the vampire"s blood core.
"Hey, are you guys next, or can I go my merry way?"
