The Bored Immortal

“No…what just happened…” Aelita mumbled with a shocked look since she thought he was dead. After having the sacred temple desecrated, her people and her brother killed, she desperately wanted to kill Dark Phoenix herself.

However, since her god did it, she only felt even more satisfied and relieved. But after seeing his corpse suddenly burst into dark silver flames and disappear into thin air, she felt a bad feeling.

“According to myth, the power of the Dark Phoenix…He can die three times. Each time he dies, he will become stronger but lose a significant part of his life span. That is the power of the darkness of his bloodline…” Chief Tamo said in a grave tone.

“What just happened…” Viktor stirred awake and wondered if he was at home since the pillow seemed quite soft and warm. However, as his eyes fully opened, he came back from his dream world and realized where he was.

Aelita’s thoughts reeled back upon seeing him wake up, “Viktor! Let me help you up,” She grabbed his arm, though he was able to stand up without much support. She was glad to see that he was alright, though she couldn’t help but be more curious about him after what happened.

Even now, by touching his skin, she couldn’t help but feel more fascinated because of what she was sensing inside his body.

Viktor’s first thought was to check on Taya and Umilia and then frantically looked around.

“Whew…” He sighed in relief upon seeing the two walking towards him without the slightest injuries on their bodies, making him feel astonished. Taya was severely injured and close to being dead, and Umilia was downed as well.

The two rushed to him with relieved, happy smiles and hugged each other firmly.

“She is fine, husband. No need to worry,” Umilia said before Viktor could put forth his anxious questions about Taya’s condition.

“Sigh, Taya. You gave me a heart attack there. Why are you always so reckless?” Viktor asked as he kissed her forehead.

“I am sorry, Viktor…I just wanted to help you. I thought we would all be goners if he got that ring…” Taya said as she firmly hugged him with tears in her eyes. She thought it was her end when she got pushed off the statue, but Viktor once again saved her without her expecting it.

She couldn’t help but wonder how many times she would have lost her life if not for him. This was counting the number of kidnapping and assassination attempts she experienced when she was very young.

“It doesn’t matter…You being alive is what matters…” Viktor was glad that the worst didn’t happen. But he couldn’t help but wonder…How come both of them were looking alright and well? What happened when he got knocked out? The last thing Viktor could remember was the mystical words that echoed in his mind.

“…One with the Void…” He mumbled as he slowly raised his hand and saw dark purple light circling around his fingertips.

Taya and Umilia’s eyes reflected this dark purple light as they stared at it with a great sense of fascination. Taya had never seen Viktor use such a strange, mystical power and wondered how he was suddenly able to use it.

,m ‘Void Force? When did this happen…’ Viktor was astonished that he was able to manipulate Void Force. His vampire nor his werewolf bloodline was active. He was in his human form and could feel this mystic energy in his body coursing through his veins. To his surprise, he felt familiar with it, as if it was always part of him.

“Voidborn’s incarnation….Praise the Ancient One…” Chief Tamo mumbled with a fervid look as Aelita also felt excited sensing such pure Void Force from his aura.

“Huh? Voidborn?” Viktor asked with a confused look and glanced at Aelita as well, looking at her hand on his muscular arms.

“S-Sorry,” Aelita’s cheeks turned a slight pink as she took her hands off and then asked eagerly, “Do you remember what happened?” She asked since it looked like Viktor was confused and had no idea what had happened.

Viktor shook his head and mumbled, “No…Where is Dark Phoenix? Weren’t we all trying to get him?” He asked since he was worried if that guy might come back with the Void Ring.

“He died but will resurrect with the help of his dark flames,” Chief Tamo said as he picked up the Void Ring that was on the floor, which fell from Dark Phoenix’s corpse.

Aelita’s expression hardened upon hearing that Dark Phoenix wasn’t really dead. But she took relief in the fact that this time she would make sure to kill him herself. And again and again, till he can resurrect no more.

“Resurrect? So he is a real phoenix?” Viktor asked as he had heard about tales and myths of phoenixes who resurrect from their own flames.

“A phoenix he is but his bloodline can never be compared to the sacred power of the Golden Phoenix God,” Chief Tamo said with a light of reverence in his eyes and then looked at Viktor as he bent his back and handed over the Void Ring to him, “Take this, bearer of the Voidbringers. This Void Ring rightfully belongs to you.”

Viktor had a confused look upon seeing the chief offering such a powerful, ancient ring to him, “Wait…Why do you want me to take it? I thought this belonged in the temple of your god.”

“Let me show you what happened, husband,” Umilia said as she pressed her finger against his temple, making Viktor shut his eyes close as a flood of memories entered his head.

These were Umilia’s memories of what happened after he got knocked out. But the more he saw what happened, the more his eyes moved around behind his eyelids in shock, “No way…I got possessed by the Nameless Knight?” He asked as he slowly opened his eyes with a bewildered look.

Chief Tamo subtly smiled and said, “Not really…It was the Nameless Knight’s way of blessing you with his legacy. The Ancient One has chosen you just like the prophecy said.”
