Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

Due to the newest addition to the battlefield, the fights temporarily stopped, as both Ghouls and humans looked upwards.

While the Ghouls were wary since a batch of them just got eliminated by the silver pillar of light that descended from the sky, the humans who got blown away on the other hand, were slowly getting up with the help of their comrades

Some glared at Daimon, since those iconic white flames appeared to be the trigger of that silver pillar as well as the newcomer who descended within it.

Naturally, they weren’t exactly glad to have been affected by Daimon’s technique, but that wasn’t the only reason as to why they were glaring at him.

In the history books of Kerrol, the original Blood King who the first humanity’s king fought, despite having being defeated, didn’t die and instead was sealed inside of the moon.

As a result, the month in which the seal weakened, the blood moon week occurred, and Daimon just attacked the moon, using some sort of unknown technique of which they haven’t heard about.

In Kerrol, no one has reached the Stellar realm or its equal which would be the Half Emperor realm from the four galaxies, properly, so even if they do have spatial type arrays, to move through long distances, they had no knowledge of space shift.𝑶𝒱𝔩xt.𝕔𝓞𝑚

Which is what Rita used earlier to take Daimon’s attack up to the moon, the undead head maid, after having been meditating inside of Daimon’s shadow for the past three days, managed to grasp the necessary amount of spatial laws with the help of the boosting effect of Kerrol’s atmosphere.

So now, both sides were frozen, trying to figure out which side gained a new ally, after all it wasn’t uncommon for the Blood Dukes and above, to casually kill some subordinates in an outburst of anger, it also didn’t help that the newcomer was radiating an insane murderous aura.

“I already suspected it, but you don’t look like a Blood King to me”, casually said Daimon as he evaluated the woman that descended into that pilar of silver light.

Besides the word “paladin”, another word that might perfectly describe her would be “silver”.

There floating around a meter away from Daimon, was a full silver armored person, it was easy to tell she was a woman, due to her tall feminine figure, she had long straight bright silvery hair that reached all the way down to her waist, besides that not much could be said about her, since her body was fully covered by that heavy armor, including her face as she was using a helmet that included a metal mask.

“That’s because I’m not, whatever that filthy traitor has told you, it’s a lie, she has been controlling this world from the shadows, for the past tens of thousands of years, using both races for her own purposes, while I was imprisoned inside of that star”, said the silver armored woman, with an obviously angered voice.

The silent was interrupted by an explosion of dark purple, and bright orange battle aura, clashing against a dazzling white one, resulting in a loud shockwave as well as a bright flash, followed by Adam’s exasperated voice.

“What the hell are you doing, lend me a hand Karla…”, Adam who actually didn’t see everything that previously happened, above on Daimon’s battlefield, since he was busy trying not to get his handed by the three girls that kept applying pressure on him, finally got to see the real appearance of the blue haired woman, and his face paled.

Even the light idiot, could tell, that the monstrous-like mermaid was an administrator now, and that wasn’t all, he was horrified at the fact that he was planning to seduce that thing, to gain her support.

‘Fuck, why nothing goes my way!’, he inwardly screamed as he dodged a poisoned needle, followed by him having to block both Sarah’s one edged sword and Reyne’s lance, with his own weapon.

“Clang!”, sparks flew due to the clash of metals, now that Sarah wasn’t using the trident of the storm, which had yet to return to Daimon’s side, Adam finally could breathe a bit, which is why only now he had the chance to pay attention to other things.

“Get off me!” Adam finally couldn’t hold back, his armor ignited in a bright yellow light which forced Sarah and Reyne backwards, an opportunity Adam used to fly until he was floating next to the monstrous mermaid.

“Looks like you are in a predicament, lift the curse on me and I’ll help you kill that masked bastard”, he said.

The monstrous mermaid, whose name was Karla, clicked her tongue, but ultimately, she nodded.

“Don’t restrain yourself, that guy is currently being given power by that bitch, also since those Ghouls are more useless than what I expected, it’s time to give them a better use”, Karla snapped her fingers, and the situation took another turn for the worse.

“Aghhhh!”, suddenly a lot of the Ghoul nobles and the traitors from the church who were fighting against the humans, bent due to pain, before letting out wild screams, followed by their bodies being ripped apart to release an ominous black mist that then fused with their open wounds.

The result were those guys losing their rationality and gaining different bizarre characteristics, like extra arms, mouths on their bodies, extra eyes and the list goes on, also their skins turned lifeless gray.

Daimon inwardly frowned, those forms were carbon copies of Nethereals and yet, those things weren’t Nethereals, they were just abominations, still that made it clear that the monstrous mermaid could use nether to infect others, transforming them into those bizarre creatures.

“I need my sword back as well”, demanded Adam, to which the monstrous mermaid nodded, with a snap of her fingers, the sword which was being used by Archbald who was still clashing against three of the four leaders of humanity, returned to Adam’s side, regaining its white color.

The silver armored woman immediately noticed something was off, but as she tried to grab Daimon to throw him out of the range of the monstrous mermaid, the latter broke a black marble, which exploded into a dense black mist that engulfed Daimon and the silver armored girl, as well as Adam.

…

The scenery changed from the sky of Kerrol, to a completely black space, which was then illuminated by the silver haired woman’s armor which shone in a pretty light, a second later half of the dark space turned white, the monstrous mermaid and Adam were standing on the illuminated side, while Daimon and the silver haired woman were engulfed by the darkness.

“I don’t know how the hell did you do that, but here moving through space isn’t possible, you can still make it out of this alive brat, hand over the both the trident and the cross bow, or die and become a stepping stone for the guy you hate!”, exclaimed the mermaid with a twisted expression, that showed her spiked teeth.

Daimon smirked, as the trident of the storm appeared on his hand, before Rita unwillingly followed Daimon’s order, she had retrieved the trident and left it in Daimon’s shadow, for him to take it out as he pleased.

“I have been wondering, this trident is certainly a strong magic weapon, though it seems to need some repair, it is a Half Stellar rank treasure after all, but why are you so fixated on it?”, he said with a confused voice.

Daimon’s question, made Adam cockily laugh as he pointed his recently recovered sword at Daimon.

“You perceive it like that, because even with that woman’s help, you and those three bitches are mere nobodies, how could you even begin to imagine the true worth of a Promise level treasure, but enough of that, you have been a thorn on my side, so it’s time to die, don’t worry I’ll take “care” of those three once you are gone”, said Adam as he unsheathed his other sword, apparently the light idiot could wield two swords at the same time.

The silver armored woman snapped her fingers, and a pretty silver light covered Daimon’s body, turning into an ethereal armor that protected his body.

“This isn’t the proper moment for introductions, you can call me Freya, sorry to have involved you in my war, this should help protect you fight against him, also that “thing” wants the trident because without it she can’t kill me… I have lost my weapon, would you please lend me the Judgement Cross Bow, even if broken I can defeat her with it”, said the silver armored woman.

Daimon nodded and the white cross bow appeared on his free hand, before he threw it at Freya, since for him it had no use, he just used it as a cover to use Demon Light without any restrain earlier.

The silver armored Freya, knew that she hadn’t given Daimon any power prior to giving him that silver ethereal protection earlier, which made her interest in the masked youth increase, naturally she let the mermaid and Adam believe what they wanted.

“You seem too relaxed, so let me give you a little “gift”, those minions I created are way stronger than the materials used to create them, so as we speak, they are slaughtering all the humans!”, poisonously said the monstrous mermaid, Karla.

Apparently, this special barrier isolated even the one who used it, meaning she couldn’t know what was happening outside, otherwise she wouldn’t have been so cocky, taking into account the fact that Daimon left his trusty head maid behind, to give a hand to Jasmine and the others, that being said, there was for sure a slaughter currently ongoing, on which side, that is another story.

Freya who received the white cross bow, emitted a sad sensation for a moment, before she injected her mana into it, making a silver layer cover it, generating the missing pieces of it, it was just temporal but the cross bow was now working, judging on the aura it gave off.

“This time, I will put a bolt in that disgusting face of yours”, slowly said Freya as she pointed the cross bow at the monstrous mermaid, who snorted.

Those two then became flashes of silver and black light respectively, and then clashed at the left side of this enclosed space, leaving behind Adam and Daimon.

To be honest, Daimon was more interested in the other fight, the two of them had similar sensation as the angel girl and the ghost woman that Daimon saw around Adam and Marcus respectively, meaning they were both administrators… or more accurately used to be, since they clearly weren’t tied to a host anymore.

Anyway, what caught Daimon’s attention, is that they didn’t have a realm, they had powers, but they didn’t give the sensation of a mage, knight or any combination of those two, based on the level of usage of mana which Daimon has seen so far, put them in between the Half Stellar and Stellar realm though.

“Where the hell are you looking at you npc bastard!”, Adam who noticed Daimon was ignoring him, flashed and appeared next to Daimon the next second as he swinged his two swords at him.

“Clang!”, Daimon casually blocked both swords using the prongs of the trident, and then rolled it, forcing Adam to retreat before his swords escaped his hands, due to the movement.

Needless to say, but Adam was surprised to see that in a direct confrontation, the opponent was physically stronger than him, since none of them used battle aura.

“Fucking hell!”, Adam’s body exploded in white battle aura, the white side of the space generated small particles of light mana that gathered around Adam, further empowering his body.

Surprisingly the light idiot managed to jump all the way to the early Archknight realm, using his own boosting ability and the enhance created by this special space, naturally it was like that because the monstrous mermaid set it like that.

Apparently, she wasn’t the one that created the boosting effect of Kerrol’s atmosphere, otherwise Karla would have done something, after Sarah purposedly allowed others to notice, she was receiving said boosting effect, with the help of the bracelet of the god of mischief, under Daimon’s order of course.

This space was separated in two different areas, one white and one black, Freya’s affinity was clearly on the positive side, Daimon didn’t have the time to properly peek at her with his infinity eyes, but judging on her appearance and that silver pillar of light that earlier descended from the sky, she for sure had metal affinity and since the mana she used, evaporated the Ghouls, it was on the positive aspect of the specter.

As for him, thanks to the hollow suit and the bracelet of the god of mischief, he appeared to be a knight who was lucky enough to have fire affinity with a strong inclination towards light, resulting on the white flames which he could use.

And that’s why they were thrown into the dark side of this special space, where their strength would be greatly reduced, while Adam’s strength was boosted, everything was prepared for this moment.

If the hero is at an “unfair” disadvantage, he will receive external help for sure, if the hero is attacked by someone on a higher realm than himself, there will always be a chance for them to benefit from it, if the hero has comrades at his side, said comrades can be sacrificed in order to allow the hero to experience growth, lastly if the hero’s life is in danger there is always a certain probability of escaping, even against system users.

Those were some of the properties of which Daimon was has managed to confirm from Adam’s system, through the different clashes which Daimon or the others have had with Adam until now.

The previous could be partially ignored as long as one possessed an item from a system, depending on the level of said item, the effect will increase, as a proof of it, this time Sarah was able to make Adam bleed, while in their previous fight, though she landed some punches on him, he didn’t really suffer.

But to make him suffer a real loss, there were some requirements needed, even for Daimon, his instincts told him, that if he aimed for the kill previously, things wouldn’t have resulted as he wanted.

“How dare you look away you bastard!”, Adam who had finished drawing all the battle aura he could, shouted as his two swords absorbed till the last bit of it, making them lit up in a dazzling white light.

Adam then swinged both of his swords and a giant wave of light engulfed Daimon, who was taken by surprise, the dark area of the space was illuminated for a couple of seconds, as Adam’s attack moved through it, until the wave of light clashed against the border of the space, making the wall tremble for a couple of seconds.

“How do you like that, my Holy Light isn’t effective only against negative oriented beings, but against all my “enemies”, so regardless of your affinity or nature, if you are hit by it, you are fucking dead hahaha…”.

Adam’s thunderous laugh stopped in cold, when he saw the figure floating in the sky a few meters away from him, besides some slight damage on his clothes, as well as a few cuts in Daimon’s skin, he was perfectly fine.

“I-Impossible, I could have killed a peak Arch rank with that attack, I am using Holy Enhance, plus the boosting effect of this space!”, yelled Adam.

Daimon smirked, the wounds he suffered weren’t healing, which is exactly what he wanted, he took a deep breath and then the sensation around him changed, drawing not only Adam, but also Freya and Karla’s attention towards him.

Adam’s face twisted, as he now could feel that there was both mana and battle aura radiating from Daimon’s body, which should be impossible for the nobodies of the four galaxies, even he couldn’t obtain the powers of the two paths… yet.

Then the anger, envy and surprise that was invading his heart, all turned into despair, when the atmosphere around Daimon started waving, the boosting effect of Kerrol only applied to his knight realm previously, because the hollow suit and the bracelet, made him look like a regular knight.

But now that he openly allowed this world to see that he was both a mage and a knight, the boosting effect increased his level in both paths, under the horrified eyes of both the monstrous mermaid and Adam, both the darkness and the light that filled this special space, started decomposing and then gathered around Daimon, who was temporarily distracted at the sensation that was coursing through his body.

Previously, even when he used Core Synchrony, he just took advantage of his strengthened and increased mana to power up his battle aura, which contained different types of mana, but didn’t let the world realize he was a mage, in that state he remained a Lord rank, though his battle prowess did increase, which is why he was able to burn that Archduke, using his strongest affinity.

But now things were different, because with his Core Synchrony and also the boosting effect of Kerrol, he managed to finally reach the next realm, in other words, Daimon’s realm was now the early Archmage realm as well as a peak Knight Lord.

“Y-You, what the hell are you!!!”, Adam whose face was pale as paper, turned around to try and escape, in terms of realm he was the same as the opponent, but even from afar, he was suffocating just by being in the masked man’s presence, what’s worse is that his battle aura wasn’t coming out of his body, as if it was afraid of the opponent’s one, it was absurd.

If he was mage, it might be understandable, since a stronger mage can restrict a weaker one’s capacity to use mana, but battle aura is created inside one’s body, thanks to one’s life spark, as well as vitality and the mana that circulated through the body, saying that his battle aura was being intimidated by the opponent, would be the same as saying that the life spark of him, the hero of light, had gained consciousness and was afraid of the enemy’s.

‘Impossible, I gained the highest rank of life spark possible for the Mortal realms, he isn’t even a system user…’, Adam’s train of thought was stopped by his body freezing, he looked downwards just to see the prongs of the trident of storm coming out of chest.

Daimon had throwed the trident and casually pierced his heart with it.

“Damn it, blegh!”, Adam vomited blood and his body started falling from the sky, he tried to remove the trident, but his armor had melted around it, and his strength was abandoning him.

“Phew”, Daimon let out a sigh of relief as he deactivated Core Synchrony, his realm then immediately returned to the Lord ranks, both mage and knight ones, since he was no longer hiding his two paths.

Freya reacted first, her body shone in silver light and the special space was overturned by a metal zone, Daimon’s previous state had ripped apart the mana used by Karla, so the space had weakened a lot.

Meaning that the silver haired woman, could take over without too much problem, and as a result, a giant hollowed metal sphere appeared on the sky, replacing the previous battlefield.

Daimon slowly flew towards where those two were fighting, Adam had fainted at this point, as long as the trident was there, he wasn’t going to be able to move, because the crazy girl applied paralyzing and sleeping poison on it, it was fully non-lethal as well, and it basically used all the battle aura reserves of Sarah, so at the very least, he’ll be out for the next thirty minutes.

Also, he couldn’t escape through space, because Freya had the same capacity to prevent others to use spatial movement, inside this special spaces, which Daimon judged to be the equivalent to domains.

“Well, now that the little nuisance is taken care off, let’s get rid of the bigger one”, he said as he summoned a sword made out of white flames.

The monstrous mermaid distanced herself from Daimon and Freya.

‘Shit, what the hell is that bastard, if he stayed in that state, he could have killed me like swatting a fly, so then why…’, Karla’s mind naturally wandered to the most logical conclusion, which was that Daimon couldn’t handle such big increase in his realm, so he took out Adam fast, so hat he could join hands with Freya to kill her, no, capture her, since he used the trident to knock out Adam.

“I recognize that you are indeed a risk factor which I didn’t take into account, still benefits are what move you based on what I saw inside the labyrinth, so tell me, what do you want in exchange for staying out of this, you discarded the trident after all”, said the monstrous mermaid, to which Daimon smirked as Narasha in Gram’s form appeared floating next to him.

“Do you think that trident to kill you, no, you are alive because you’ll be turning into a “snack” for my companion and a stepping stone for me”.
