Chapter 1081 Red"s Origins
-----
Although I managed to free the Vampires below her power by shattering her Divine Core, Red viciously revived herself from the dead. Not only by merging back every b.l.o.o.d.y piece of her body that exploded into shreds, but by also converging her divine core with the accessories she was wearing. I remember she had around two rings and one necklace imbued with red stones.
And if I am not dumb enough to not realize, those red stones were obviously the same as Ruby"s necklace jewel, a fragment of the Vampire Venerable"s soul! I should had tried taking them away from her but the only way to kill her was by blowing her into pieces. Getting closer and being meticulous wouldn"t had worked.
The moment she converged with them completely unlike simply wearing them as accessories, the enormous shockwave that stopped all of us was unleashed. I tried my hardest to dive through such an enormous pressure, but I was only pushed back the harder I tried.
Her ma.s.s of flesh and blood quickly began sucking over the souls of the Vampires we killed, alongside devouring any leftover corpse and flesh left behind, converging it all within her body.
TRUUUUMMM...!
And then, she fused it all into her core, taking the form and shape of a beautiful lady made of blood. Slowly, the blood showed her white skin and her sharp red eyes. A smile showed her sharp vampiric teeth, she was viciously glaring us down as if we were mere prey.
This was bad, the power she had gained... was several times what she had before. I was slightly careless, which ended bringing her back to life in the most unprecedented of ways.
But how?
How can she manipulate the power of the Vampire Venerable through those red jewels?!
It is not something I expected her to even be capable of doing at all!
I knew she was manipulating their power by turning them into magic accessories but... this was going beyond that.
Red began to transform, by utilizing the power of the Vampire Venerable Soul Fragments, she rea.s.sembled her Divine Core through using her soul as a manipulator, and used the shockwave generated by the fusion of both to unleash a powerful pressure, inhibiting her foes from getting closer.
Within her mind, she couldn"t help but feel filled with anger and fury, however!
"That d.a.m.n dragon... that d.a.m.n lizard b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"
The moment she ended relaxing or taking it easy, Drake took advantage of that and completely decimated her with constant and never-ending blows.
But above all, the power of his weapons and the spirits within them was the thing that made her the most furious.
When she heard the voice of Rose, she completely went mad!
"That traitorous b.i.t.c.h! I"ll kill her! I"LL KILL HER AND EVERYONE ELSE... I will absorb their blood; I will shower on it!" She roared with fury.
She slowly began to regain her shape and body, quickly materializing back to her previous self...
But this time, with a brand-new power!
A beautiful pale white as candle lady emerged out of thin air, her sharp red eyes, perfectly shaped body as if it was out of a marble statue, and her long red hair was impactful to anybody watching.
However, such beauty came with an evil tenancy for living and her malicious desires to consume it all. Her rebirth came as if she emerged out of a rose made of blood.
The white snow surrounding her was quickly covered by blood as everything, even the mountains became blood and darkness. The sky turned red and the background black. Red lightning began clashing from the skies into the ground, only adding to the terrifying scene...
With the power of her rebirth came a greater connection with the souls of the Vampire Venerable. Red was designed by Oberon to be able to wield his power. Each Fragment of his Soul came with a part of the strength of his Unique Skill after all!
The first Venerable to have ever existed desired this power, he wanted it for himself! Red was designed, created for that purpose. However, in all her life she always despised her creator, even knowing she was part of Oberon"s soul, she never truly felt part of him.
Naturally, the process that created her was by sacrificing a hundred Vampires, most of them being converted by a Pure Blood Vampire that Oberon"s Soul Fragments kidnaped and forced to create more Vampires.
However, by using this very Pure Blood Vampire as a material for the creation of Red"s body, she was also given their Pure Bloodline and the ability, or perhaps the possibility, of being able to become one of the Venerable"s vessels!
Upon her birth, she was raised and taught coldly by Greenwood"s clones, until she reached enough mental experience and knowledge to do her part of the mission... she never grew with any parents, or any care, or any love. And the memories she had of Oberon were always cloudy and confusing, she couldn"t feel like a part of him.
"Am I even a part of him... A part of them?" She often wondered.
She did as they told her to do anyways, mostly out of fear for her own life, the new life they had created, which already had no will of even helping them to begin with. She wasn"t like them at all, she wasn"t a collective mind, and she had no intentions of reviving Oberon and giving him all her powers, while losing her independence.
She did her best to infiltrate the Vampire"s Family, slowly yet steadily, she was a good vessel, not the perfect one, but seemed compatible enough, and came with the special power to even suppress the Venerable"s will, gaining all his powers without repercussions... but those plans ended when Ruby was born, the girl with the best compatibility, the perfect, ideal vessel.
Since that day that Red harbored hate against her, as she slowly climbed the hierarchy of the Vampire Family, she planned each day... to steal her powers and become the true perfect vessel herself.
