Chapter 1077 Confronting Red
—–
(Drake’s POV)
Right in front of us, Red stood there. We had managed to break through the barrier thanks to my new Ability and the help of everyone’s else efforts. And now that I broke through her castle and forced her to get out, she had no place to hide anymore, unless she decided to run away, we had her cornered.
And I knew she wouldn’t run away. She was after all a Soul Fragment of Oberon, that prideful bastard obviously has the same mind as Greenwood, right? Or Greenwood like him. Which means all his Soul Fragments are ultimately too prideful to escape a battle.
They’ll stay and fight just to prove us that they’re the superior ones, and that they got the advantage in both strength and experience… These type of people are the easiest to abuse in these regards.
However, we were not just fighting some little monster now, or a pawn of Greenwood. We were fighting a Soul Fragment at full power, a being of Rank 9, one rank above me… Can I even win? With everything as I have arranged it and my trump card, I have confidence I can do it.
But it’ll be very close, and there’s still a big chance I might end up getting completely decimated ultimately… It is going to be something that cannot be easily decided by merely running simulations inside of my head.
Now that she’s in front of me, I just have to do it.
“But it would be boring if you all gang on the little old me, right? Such a band of barbarians… How about we give a warm welcome to all of my children?” Red laughed. “Look, we’ve even arranged a special meeting with all of Ruby’s family, the ones that think of themselves as superior to all for descending the Vampire Venerable!”
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Suddenly, countless Vampires showed up, they were up to a hundred. Their power was stronger than those we fought before, they were clearly not being mass produced, these were all part of Ruby’s family… they were all her family members.
They were being controlled by blood threads inserted into their very souls, and I noticed strange red-colored fleshy parasites stuck into their backs, fueling them with power.
“Ruby…! RUBY!”
Suddenly, a woman cried, she resembled Ruby a lot, but was older…
Was she Ruby’s mother?
“Hahahaha! Look at her scream! Isn’t she the cutest?”
“RED! W-Where’s my daughter?!”
The woman screamed in fury, looking at Red with resentment as tears flowed out of her red eyes.
“Hahahaha! In a very good place! For now, how about you have some good manners and entertain our guests, hm~?” Red laughed, the several accessories with red jewels on them shone brightly as they enchanted her soul powers, a sudden red aura was conjured, covering every vampire.
“Nnnggh…! Y-You damn monster, you’ve stolen… The Treasures of our Family! Give them back! Give me back my daughter!!! AAAGGGGGHHHHH…!”
Ruby’s mother suddenly began to overflow with power, her scream of agony was combined by the screams of all the other vampires, as they quickly mutated into monstrous bat-like aberrations of over four meters each, roaring furiously.
“GRYYYSSHHAAAAA!”
“GROOOARRR!”
“GRAAAAHHHH!!!”
“RAAAAAHH!!!”
“Yes, that’s more like it. Roar and bark like the filthy beasts you all are… Like the utter garbage you all are! Like the pathetic little shits that all of you are! Like the insignificant beings you all are… You barely make passable bait! Now go die!”
The monstrous bats quickly began flying towards us. If they were the other Vampires, we might had not held back, but now we were left without many options… Killing Ruby’s family was something we simply couldn’t do.
“Ruby’s mother…!” Rakasha cried. “She loves her mother, I cannot… I can’t kill her.”
“Don’t worry, I wasn’t planning on forcing you to do anything.” I said with a smile. “Like beasts, we’ll simply capture them.”
I quickly conjured magic in a split of a second, unifying several ideas with my strongest elements and all the Mana I could muster, with thousands of Divine Power added to it.
“Divine Spirit Creation: [Holy Light Chains]”
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
I quickly summoned thousands of Holy Light Chains from my hands, as they all stretched towards my allies, serving as new spirit weapons I had created on the spot. These chains were specifically made to restrain foes and lower their stats while even nullifying part of their magic. Once weakened, the Vampires can be captured.
“Use these to capture weakened Vampires. I am counting on all of you.”
I quickly used for the last time my buffs on everyone, their power began overflowing from within their bodies as Draconic Auras started to merge with Soul Forging Buffs. For a few seconds, it felt as if all the buffs I granted merged into a single powerful Dragon Aura. Whatever was the case, I didn’t had time to check on that again.
“As long as you weaken them, it should be doable!” I said.
“Alright…” Rakasha nodded. “I am leaving Red to you then, Drake!”
“Yeah, make sure to save Ruby’s mother at all costs. I wouldn’t be able to see that girl in the eyes again knowing I’ve killed her mother.” I said with a nod.
“Leave it to us!” Yuki roared.
“Yeah, don’t worry!” Tisha said.
“We can handle it.” Pekora nodded.
“Fufu, you’re going against a hundred mutated Vampires of True Blood yet you’re all so relaxed… Do you truly believe some little golden chains are going to suddenly change the fate of all these pathetic vermin or something?” Laughed Red. “I never thought you would be such a soft-hearted goody-two-shoes, lizard.”
“I am not soft-hearted. I simply don’t see every single life as garbage as you do…” I sighed. “Amongst all the people I’ve met, the likes of you are the ones I despite the most. Always believing that being overly edgy is somehow the “smart way” of thinking… However, at the end I always realize that you’re all just losers… All of you are just filled with bullshit!”
FLAAASH!
