Will of chaos

After talking to the Gray Elf Louren?o, I told him to come along since I was the reason he came, during our conversation I felt the respect and admiration he had in his eyes when he looked at Freya, I think if it wasn’t for the Queen Viviane in the room he would have kneeled in front of Freya.

I don’t mind him coming and knowing the secret of the Dungeon as the Elves have been good friends to me, besides they need my help to fix their problems with the World Tree.

The secret of the Dungeon is of little importance as no one can do anything about it even if they know the truth, I just want to keep it a secret so as not to scare people as I know very well how terrifying the idea of ??having someone with a Dungeon can be. mobile in and out of cities with ease.

After another day of gathering information about this Capitol full of undead, I do a roundup for wheels before heading to a place with Vanessa.

“I don’t think we should go now, we can wait until after the rescue.” (I)

“Father, you should take this opportunity, this is the only place in the entire Dark Continent that has a Temple of Blood from what Lillian told me.” (Vanessa)

“I’m a little curious about what this place is like, I just hoped it was at a better time when I was going there and not before I left for a place full of undead.” (I)

Vanessa takes me to the other side of town where we find several temples and churches close to each other.

On the way I started to be persecuted by two different groups of people, these were the Priests and Priestesses that Vanessa recognized as being from two religions, the Temple of Lust and the Church of Fertility.

I tried to hide from them but they always managed to find me, a chill crept up my back as I thought I had to keep a distance from these dangerous religions.

I only managed to escape the chase when I entered the Temple of Blood, as I was running I didn’t pay much attention to where the stake was going, I was more worried about what was coming after me, it was Vanessa who directed me here.

The Temple of the Blood was built in smooth stone with red details throughout, these details were red lines painted on the walls, ceiling, and columns all connected together as if they were veins scattered throughout the building, these lines were painted and ornamented beautifully, there were paintings and paintings on the walls depicting a battle capo covered in blood, a red-eyed mother with an equally red-eyed baby in her arms with faint red lines that seemed to flow from the woman’s body to the child’s body, criminals being executed, and a red-haired woman with blood flowing from a cut on her palm falling into a flower garden.

All the images represented such different things that it felt strange seeing them all in the same place, the only thing all the images had in common was the blood in them all.

“…” (I)

I was speechless, looking at these images made me realize that I often forget that blood represents an incredible number of things, the blood of soldiers running on a battlefield, the language of blood that connected generations of a family along rivers. endless periods of time and the vital force contained in the blood.

“Welcome to the Temple of Blood, Father.” (Vanessa)

“So this is the Temple of Blood…” (I)

I looked around seeing that most of the people who enter and leave are Vampires, but there are also people of other races like Demons and many other races, some were walking, others were talking and there were also people standing in front of different images like if you tried to understand their meanings.

But what surprised me the most was the feeling I felt, my blood seemed to flow with more speed and strength through my veins, besides that, I felt very comfortable and at ease in this place the same way I feel when I’m at home in the mansion inside. from Dungeon.

Another thing I noticed was the Symbol of the Temple of Blood, the same symbol I saw in the castle where I found the Goddess Selene during my evolutions and the same symbol that Vanessa showed me when we first met, Vanessa also used this symbol in the Temple of Blood that until today was not finished.

The Coat of Arms of the Blood Goddess Selene, it is scarlet red in the shape of a half moon and has a black crown in the center of the moon and a drop of golden blood on the top of the crown.

“Come on, I’ll show you the Goddess statue in the main hall.” (Vanessa)

I follow Vanessa to a room further inside the Temple of the Blood, when we enter I see a room that has rows of benches and statues of some people in the surroundings, facing the door where I entered on the other side of the room was the Statue of red crystal of the Goddess, this time her face was clearly represented on the statue, the image was the Goddess wearing a seductive dress while holding a sword.

Looking at the statue made an image of the Goddess look fearless and full of courage on a battlefield, the expression on the statue’s face portrayed the infinite determination of one who would never surrender. 𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖ𝚕.𝚝

The statue looked almost alive, it was very strange and it caught my attention a lot, but it was the image I saw in the corners of my eyes that left me frozen in place, I tried to look to the side wherein an unfamiliar corner I saw a painting of a red haired girl on her back holding a sword covered in blood, as she was on her back her face was not visible but it looked like her head was slightly lowered, for a moment I seemed to have seen the image of a man with brown hair and eyes blacks much like me smiling facing the child with a hand on his head in the middle of a ruin.

Tears

“…” (I)

Tears

“Dad, why are you crying? What happened?” (Vanessa)

Tears

When I got distracted by Vanessa’s voice and blinked my eyes the image of the man was no longer there, there was only the girl on her back holding a sword covered in blood, and the rest of the frame was a black background that didn’t show anything anymore.

Tears

I put a hand on my face as I noticed the tears coming out of my eyes nonstop, I also noticed that my heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to burst out of my chest.

“What was that…” (I)
