Chapter 1085 An Unexpected Outcome!
-----
Not only Drake gained a new Divinity, a new Divine Ability, and even dropped items that were stored inside of his Inventory right away, but he also immediately decided to Rank Up using the vast amount of Divine Power he acquired!
His very presence evolved despite not evolving yet, as his Aura pushed the boundaries of its limits and broke them in a single second, without any effort whatsoever!
While Red struggled to fight the enormous pressure and pain that was Ranking Up her Divine Core, Drake did it in merely a single second without any problem!
His Divine Aura and Divine Strength was multiplied by more than a hundredfold in a very second!
Suddenly, the enormous strength gap between Red and Drake became thinner, and thinner, both were within the same Realm!
"R-Rank 9… That"s a Rank 9 Divine Aura?! No… What did you do?! How can you Rank Up so easily?!" Red panicked, her tentacles quickly regenerating at long last, as they all furiously attacked Drake!
However, Drake remained stoic as his glorious draconic body shone brightly with Holy Light and Primordial Ice Armor growing over his body.
Nonetheless, aside from this cla.s.sic combination he used against vampires, a new power began surging from within him, one which he had acquired some time ago, but couldn"t properly develop any further.
The power of the Blood Attribute!
And what better to begin using its powers than by acquiring an incredible Divinity of Vampiric Blood and its strongest Divine Ability ever, although only a fragment of the original ability, it was the Unique Skill: Vampire Progenitor!
A Dragon King with such an accursed Unique Skill such as the Vampire Progenitor one! Such a thing had never been expected, not even by Drake"s parents and even by the Vampiress in front of him. Even less by the Vampire Venerable!
The power of Blood began emerging from within Drake"s draconic claws. Now the blood emanating a powerful all consuming divine light of pure glory, combining the power of blood with holy light was something no vampire could had ever done before except Drake!
"[Divine Holy Blood]!"
FLAAASH!
The blood suddenly turned of a bright red light, emanating sparkles of golden light as a beautiful river of Divine Holy Blood began floating around his draconic body, quickly shaping into a ferocious snake-like whip.
"Would you look at that, Red. How the tables have turned…!"
Drake smiled maliciously, as he showed Red his sharp fangs. In a mere second he reached her as his entire body fused with the Divine Holy Blood, enchanting his power furthermore as he felt the divine blood pumping through his veins!
His eyes shone bright red as his scales gained redder color as well. A third red eye appeared in his forehead, unleashing a deadly Divine Blood Beam!
BOOOOOOMMMM!!!
"GUUAAAGGH…!"
Red suddenly was impacted by the enormous beam, her gigantic body was blown off the ground as if she were a mere ragdoll!
FLASH!
And right after that, Drake emerged like a blur of red color. His scales glowing bright red as his wings became black and bat-like, his horns becoming black and growing upwards while spiraling! This was Drake"s new transformation, combining the power of the Blood Divinity within his body!
"It"s over now!"
Drake"s weapons reached him in an instant. His new powers immediately turned both the Sper and the Blade into deep red colors, as he swung them with all the power he held within him1
SLAAAa.s.sSSHHHH!!!
"AAAGGGH…!"
Red tried to defend herself, but against Drake"s new might, it was simply impossible! She was suddenly sliced in half… and then!
"Divine Blood Weapon Arts: [Endless Blood Slices]!"
Drake quickly manipulated the very blood coming out of the wounds provoked by his previous blow, shaping them like internal blades and slicing through the interior of Red even more!
SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAASH! SLAAa.s.sSHH!
"GRYYYAAAAGGGGHH…!"
Red screamed in agony, everyone saw her horrifying scream as she was thrown down into the ground, hitting the ground so fast that her entire body, already sliced through, exploded into pieces!
CLAAAa.s.sSHHHH…!
Her entire body exploded into shreds, turning into a pile of gory blood and flesh once more. However, despite being a Vampire, her body couldn"t properly regenerate, Drake had messed with her blood, making it scar before the flesh could unify with each other
"I-Impossible… this can"t be… No…"
Red was panicking, her mind was slowly beginning to fade away. She looked at the dragon on top of her, who flew slowly towards her, pointing at her a flash of bright holy light with utter hate.
"Giving up so soon, Red?"
However, her consciousness was suddenly awoken by something else… something lurking within her very self. It wasn"t Greenwood, nor Oberon, nor any of his other Soul Fragments.
It was someone else, which she knew a lot and yet, at the same time, very little. The reason why she was made to begin with, and the reason behind her powers, which at the end, were stolen by Drake when she least expected it.
"Y-You… No… Get away from me!"
No matter how much her mind fought against him, it was impossible.
"When that dragon absorbed our power, something… broke. I am finally free from the seal you"ve put over me, and this soul of yours… I shall feast on it all!"
"No… Stop… STOP!"
Red"s mind was suddenly devoured by an endless darkness, as countless red eyes glanced at her soul agonize its last moments before being completely consumed!
"Hahahah… HAHAHAHAHA!"
Suddenly, the laughter of a man echoed across the skies and the earth, as Drake and company reacted in surprise once more.
The flesh left behind was quickly brought back to life, but this time, it simply all melted into red blood like a boiling soup, fusing with Red"s soul… and another"s man soul altogether, into a gigantic, phantasmal, red-colored formless and shapeless t.i.tan.
TRUUUUUMMM…!
"Finally… I have finally been able to return!"
Although n.o.body could recognize his voice, by his very presence and his very monstrous appearance, they knew it.
They knew who he was.
"The Vampire Venerable?!"
