Chapter 803: Primogenitor Of The Draconic Vampires, Victor Alucard.
At this moment, when they witnessed the birth of a new Progenitor, all Primordial Beings instinctively felt it.
The anomaly was fixed. The Balance was preserved.
"... I see, it was for this moment... For this singular moment to occur, they allowed the existence of that anomaly." The Abyss Judges spoke with a slight tone of shock.
That was something very rare. He wondered how long it had been since he felt shock or any emotion like this.
"A Progenitor above all Dragon Subspecies and Vampire Subspecies." The Universal Tree spoke solemnly.
"A monster has just been born." He chuckled lightly. "Good, my sister will be even more protected."
"... Do you only care about your sister?" The Limbo Guy rolled his eyes. "This is a big deal, you know? If he"s a Progenitor of The Dragons, that means he has that ability... And if he has that ability... I just feel sorry for his future enemies." He could only imagine the havoc that this ability could wreak, considering the abilities of Vampire Progenitors.
"It doesn"t matter." The Three Judges of the Abyss said simultaneously.
"The anomaly was fixed, The Balance was preserved. In the end, they were correct, as always. And that"s all that matters."
Again, all Primordial Beings couldn"t help but nod in agreement when they heard what the Abyss Judges said.
...
Victor took a deep breath.
ROOOOOOOAR!
Even though Typhon had appeared on the battlefield, Victor paid no attention to it. In this moment, Victor felt elevated; his senses had never been so wide, his eyes could finally see the world as it was… as it truly was… And it was beautiful.
Terribly chaotic, yet balanced at the same time; Positive and Negative Energies were floating around, sustaining all of existence.
He spread his arms as if embracing the world, and from his perspective, he truly was doing just that—his "senses" were embracing the entire cosmos.
Due to his newfound senses, he could "sense" four gigantic Energy sources in the void between Dimensions.
Victor looked up and smiled upon seeing those Beings of infinite power. He couldn"t "see" the Primordial Ent.i.ties, but he knew they were there.
"Yes... He has that ability." The Limbo Guy sighed. With his eyes, he could clearly see how that Being was touching "existence"; in a way, this ability was only slightly beneath the Powers of The Universal Tree.
Dragons were inherently Beings of Nature; they were deeply connected to existence. Because of this, the stronger they became, the more they could see how existence truly appeared, and if they became strong enough, they could even interact with Energies they weren"t born with.
An example would be a Fire Dragon becoming strong enough to control an opposing Energy like Ice or Water.
But this ability was only a fraction of the true ability of The Dragon Progenitor.
Dragons were Beings of Nature, meaning... ALL Energies, below Negative and Positive Energies, they could control.
This meant that Magic, Fire, Water, Ice, Earth, and all Elements derived from them, all of existence was at the fingertips of Dragon Progenitors.
The only exceptions to this rule were Positive Energies like those of Angels, the Negative Energies of Demons, and the Divine Concepts of G.o.ds.
But this was where Victor"s Vampyric Aspect came into play, and his bond with Roxanne. Thanks to these two aspects, Victor could control the Negative Aspect of Creation.
This meant that all Negative Divine Concepts could be manipulated on a smaller scale by Victor, giving him a Pseudo-Divinity of a Low-Level G.o.d, though not as efficient as specialized Deities with their own Divinities.
Still, it was incredible because he could replicate the effects of Minor G.o.ds as a Mortal.
Victor became a monster who could control 70% of all Creation; all this Power was at his fingertips.
"He has essentially become the Mortal representative of the entire Negative Aspect of The Balance; this kind of Power has never been given to a Mortal before." The Universal Tree spoke with a smile on its face. It was quite content; why wouldn"t it be? It knew Victor"s personality very well; it knew he wouldn"t abuse this incredible Power, and the stronger he became, the safer his sister and the daughters he had come into contact with would be.
ROAAAAAAR!
Typhon roared in defiance at Victor. Unlike Fenrir, who could release the Energy of The END through his mouth, this Beast of The Apocalypse couldn"t do that, but in compensation, its entire body was covered by The Concept of The END.
"Irritating." Victor looked at The Beast of The END and snapped his fingers.
In the next second, a giant magical circle appeared beneath Typhon.
"Rest a bit."
In the following moment, Typhon"s entire body vanished.
This action left the entire battlefield in absolute silence.
Where did Typhon go?
Well...
The Primordial Ent.i.ties looked at the drifting Beast of The END in the Dimensional Void.
"..."
"What do we do with this?" The Universal Tree spoke.
"Ignore it?" The Limbo Guy suggested.
"We can"t do that; The Concept of The END will erase the void between dimensions. The chaos that will result would be unprecedented." One of The Judges of the Abyss said.
The Limbo Guy, The Universal Tree, and The Judges of Abyss looked at Death with expressionless gazes.
It was a gaze that said, "You"re Death, right? You"re The End of Everything. The Concept of The END comes from you, so it"s your child; take care of it."
Death grumbled softly about not wanting to work, until he finally spoke.
"Fine."
Death appeared near Typhon and touched the beast"s body, temporarily sealing its END Concept. Then he covered the beast with his Power to prevent it from dying in the Dimensional Void.
And that"s how Victor dealt with The Beast of The End...
Yes, he didn"t deal with it; he left the task to more competent Beings. But that was not important, right? Even with his current evolution, he wasn"t confident in defeating an END Beast; its Concept was just too dangerous. However, there were numerous ways to deal with these Beings, even temporarily. The most efficient approach was to send it to the Primordial Ent.i.ties, and that"s what he did.
Silence fell in the area until Scathach reacted. "Pfft... HAHAHAHAHA!" And she immediately burst into laughter while holding her stomach.
"He simply... Pfft." She chuckled a little more. "He simply used the Witches" Teleportation Circle! HAHAHAHA! I really want to see that woman"s expression when she finds out her Magic was stolen so easily."
"Wait a sec... Why can he use Magic on such a scale?" Scathach just realized what she said.
"You"re wrong, My Dear." Victor spoke neutrally as he looked at his closed hand and then opened it; he was trying to get used to this new body as quickly as possible.
"Oh? What am I wrong about?"
"I didn"t only use the Witches" Magic Circle. I combined it with the Alioths" Magic Circle as well." Victor casually spoke as if what he did wasn"t a big deal.
And to him, it really wasn"t. He had only seen Evie"s Magic Circle once, but he had seen the Alioths" Magic Circle hundreds of times, though he had never had the "confidence" to use it. Even if he wanted to use it, he couldn"t. But that was no longer his reality; he simply felt that he could use it, and as expected, it worked.
"..." Scathach looked at him with an incredulous open mouth.
Victor really wished he had a camera now to capture this image of Scathach and his shocked Wives; it was so adorable.
"Y-You... What did you do to my son!"
"Hmm~." The Draconic eyes gazed at The Mother G.o.ddess. Instinctively, he felt a connection with her due to her being linked to Nature; the urge to harm her was nonexistent because of this connection. He no longer wanted to kill her; he didn"t want to harm Mother Earth...
He wanted to conquer her.
He wanted to make her his possession entirely.
As one who ranked just below The Creation of The Universal Tree, he instinctively felt that he shouldn"t harm Nature. But that didn"t mean he couldn"t conquer it, right?
Tiamat, Gaia, The World Trees—all of them rightfully belong to him.
Obviously, Victor wasn"t reigning in his instincts. How could he? He had just ascended to a Being even more instinctual than any creature.
Even Zaladrac herself took years to reign over her instincts. Victor, who had just ascended as a Dragon, still needed time to understand his new self. As a result, at this moment, his instincts and emotions were stronger than his cold logic.
Gaia visibly trembled when she felt Victor"s gaze.
She sensed that something changed within the man"s gaze. While before he wanted to harm her, even kill her, now... He had the gaze of someone looking at an object to be acquired.
It was in that moment that Gaia quickly turned and ran.
"I"m getting out of here!" She didn"t even concern herself with her son anymore; she just wanted to flee as quickly as possible. She felt that if she didn"t escape, something terrible would happen to her!
Unfortunately... You can never escape from a Dragon. Especially their Progenitor.
A strong hand gripped Gaia"s shoulder, and the force stopped her.
Gaia felt a chill run down her spine, she stiffly looked back, and when she saw that crimson-hued violet gaze, fear filled her entire being.
"You are mine. Nature is mine. Submission is the only choice."
"W-Wait." Gaia couldn"t say anything, because soon her mouth was kissed by Victor.
"Hmm~." She moaned, she tried to pull out of his arms, but he was just so much stronger physically.
Slowly, her protests started to subside, and her body started to feel hot. Her eyes became misty, leaving her feeling very strange. She felt like she was on cloud nine.
"I want more~" The moment she thought of those words, her conscience woke up. "No! I do not want it anymore!"
When she awakened her consciousness, she found herself in a completely different place.
"... Huh? Where I am?" All she saw was a forest of red, instinctively she looked up, and shuddered at what she saw.
The entire sky was covered by the gigantic figure of a Dragon, a Dragon formed of several galaxies.
"… Where the f.u.c.k am I!?"
"Aya... My Husband captured a sneaky G.o.ddess."
"Who"s there!?" Gaia looked around, and soon she saw a woman with long red hair and a body that matched her own in appearance.
Clearly, when the evolution occured, Roxanne changed as well. She was practically forced to mature completely to deal with Victor"s changes.
Visibly, her appearance didn"t change much; she simply became more mature, exuding a "maternal" aura. But internally? She was completely different.
The proof of this was that Victor"s inner world changed completely, becoming a planet 100 times larger than Earth.
"A World Tree..."
"Correct." Roxanne smiled. "It"s a shame you won"t be getting any cookies."
Roxanne turned and began walking towards a giant tree on the horizon. Even the top of the tree couldn"t be seen with the naked eye. "Come, I will a.s.sign you your task. Starting today, you will help me sustain this planet and my Husband"s Soul."
Roxanne stopped walking and looked at Gaia with a gentle smile. "... Of course, there"s no option to refuse."
Even though her tone was gentle, the threat was clear in the woman"s voice.
"…f.u.c.k…" Gaia could only grunt in resignation. This wasn"t her original plan!
...
Everyone felt a chill down their spines as they witnessed the Primordial G.o.ddess disappear completely. Everything about her vanished, and even her Energy was no longer sensed in Olympus. This proved only one thing: Gaia, the G.o.ddess, was dead!
Little did they know that she had been captured and imprisoned to sustain Victor"s own Inner World.
"Hmm~." Victor smiled satisfactorily. He could clearly feel his Inner World gaining a sense of balance with Gaia"s arrival.
Roxanne might be a World Tree, but her specifications leaned more toward Sentient Beings, like emotions, etc.
Because of this, within Victor"s World, there were only trees, and there was no other appearance of Nature. But with Gaia"s capture, this began to change. After all, she was a Primordial G.o.ddess a.s.sociated with Nature.
"I need to capture Tiamat too." Victor thought.
Even though Victor had paused to think about who-
knows-what, no one attacked him, not even Seth or Nocturnus.
The reason? Need it be said? It was quite obvious. The Being in front of them had just become even more monstrous.
To kill him now required extensive planning, including obtaining an Anti-Dragon weapon imbued with The Concept of Soul. Only then would they feel confident facing Victor.
Now, a G.o.d of Death alone wasn"t enough, because, as proven earlier with Typhon"s disappearance, his abilities had undergone significant changes, turning him into an Unknown Ent.i.ty.
And that frankly terrified everyone. Look at Nocturnus—
he was practically wetting himself with just one look from Victor.
They wanted to get out of there! But they couldn"t. The reason for this was that, even though it seemed that the monster wasn"t paying attention to them, they knew all too well that that wasn"t true. They instinctively knew it.
So, they needed to regroup and wait... Wait for a chance to escape!
Suddenly, a portal appeared on the battlefield, capturing everyone"s attention. Soon, a group of fully armed women appeared, with the Former Saint of Orleans leading the charge.
All of Victor"s Elites were present: Agnes, Natas.h.i.+a, Viviane, Mizuki, Haruna, the Amazon Queen, Meya Neyku, Eleonor, and her subordinate Rose, who had achieved the Rank of Grandmaster in Swordsmans.h.i.+p. But they weren"t alone.
Vlad, The King of Vampires, and his most trusted subordinate, Alexios, were present too, along with several handpicked Elites chosen by Vlad himself.
They were all led by the Former Saint of Orleans, Jeanne D"Arc.
Victor"s Faction entered the war.
The appearance of these Beings caused a stir on all sides of the war. Having Victor was stressful enough; now, having Vlad too? This war was already lost!
The Olympians had long lost hope. The one becoming worried now was Persephone.
Victor looked at Viviane, and desire gleamed in his eyes. In the next moment, he simply vanished and reappeared in front of her. Without even giving her a chance to speak, he kissed her, and just like Gaia, she disappeared.
Roxanne sighed. "This is going to be filled with Nature-
related women, isn"t it?" She could already see where this was going.
"L-Lady Roxanne?"
"Come, you"re in my realm. I"ll show you where you"ll work. We need to lessen the Negativity of the forest a bit to allow the green to appear. You"ll take care of that. In the near future, I"ll also take your fairies, and you"ll move here."
"... Okay." Viviane could only say that.
Everyone instinctively went on guard when Victor suddenly appeared, but the women quickly relaxed when they realized it was Victor. He looked very different, but he was definitely Victor.
Vlad narrowed his eyes. "... You"ve become even more monstrous, Victor Alucard."
The Vampire Progenitor could sense it. Victor had become an Ent.i.ty entirely different from him. He was no longer just a Vampire; he wasn"t even the same Species anymore.
He was something entirely new, something that even he, as a Progenitor, could feel a bit of Lineage suppression from, just because of the presence of a Higher Being in relation to Blood.
Beings like a Progenitor G.o.d of Vampires...
But Vlad was certain—Victor wasn"t a G.o.d. He didn"t feel like one. He was a Mortal... A very dangerous Mortal.
"Hmm." Victor nodded and then looked at Vlad.
When Vlad saw Victor"s eyes, he instantly knew what Race he was.
"A Dragon, huh... You"re really living up to the Alucard name."
"Yes, indeed." Victor smiled, showing his sharp teeth that sent s.h.i.+vers down Vlad"s spine. Honestly, this man never ceased to amaze him. In just a few years, he had surpa.s.sed him completely, even reaching a realm of existence Vlad had never achieved.
At this moment, Vlad felt even more strongly that he needed to ally with Victor, regardless of the cost. A strong alliance needed to be formed. He couldn"t just rely on Ophis to maintain the status quo between them.
Victor was going to accomplish great things, and he didn"t want to be left out.
...Vlad couldn"t help but internally chuckle at his own thoughts. "How ironic, isn"t it? To think I"d be thinking this way about this man."
His thoughts couldn"t help but return to the newly awakened Vampire who had challenged him in the Throne Room—the courage and determination that had won Vlad over the first time. Despite their issues with each other, he had also helped him a lot.
Even though he was a "perfect" King, he was now more of a family man too. Despite always prioritizing his realm, he wouldn"t make the same mistake again.
"And to think I would undergo such a significant change in my old age..." His thoughts turned to his friends from the past, especially a certain Impaler King whose name he had taken. "I wonder what you"d think of me now, old friend." He chuckled internally when he realized his friend would probably just laugh and say it was a good change.
