The Power Of The Man Before The Dragon Chp 10

Percy Pov

It's been a few hours since I got the new template and I am still livid.

I have been tricked

Backstabbed and quite possibly bamboozled

(N/A: It's funny cause I used a name randomizer between Gabriel Belmont and Dracula from LOS. Gabriel's name came up three times in a row. Dracula's name wasn't even shown)

So I just had the Gabriel Belmont package at the end of the first game.

No DLC

I am okay with it

I have Taima

It's what I have been telling myself while looking at myself in the mirror with a smile on my face.

There are a lot of upsides to this template first of all Gabriel is a badass that has the ability to kill any true 'unholy' being. He is also completely immune to any type of 'holy' damage or at least has resistance to a level where it can be said that he is immune. He can wield any type of holy weapon with no restriction.

Best of all

He has God's favor

God literally allows him to kill any type of being if they are not innocent. I think he is even able to harm Angels seriously but not kill them. He is immune or heavily resistant to their attacks.

He is a master swordsman, cross-whip master, crossbow master, master knife thrower as well as fighting with knives.

He is no slouch in unarmed combat

At least on the terms of his world

As if that wasn't enough 'holy' weapons become even stronger when wielded by him

He is strong enough naturally to hold his own against Cornell in his Lucan form enough to land a killing blow.

But the absolute best is his immunity to any disease or virus.

No Marvel or DC zombie will get me now

The reason he became a vampire was that he let himself become one.

I go to my room and see the items that I obtained

The Vampire Killer, flasks that always have a few drops of holy water, which is an amazing way of getting holy water as all I have to do is drop a few drops on a bigger source of water. Wait a few minutes and done.

Silver daggers that were tempered in holy water. They always return to the belt and are magically sharpened in it as well. He also knows how to make more.

The Cyclone boots, seraph shoulders, and the Dark gauntlet. The light and shadow medallions plus Gabriel's outfit from the first game.

They all came with level-one enchantments.

Self-Repair and Self-Cleaning

Honestly, they are not bad

The Cyclone boots are one of my favorites

They increase the speed of whoever wears them by 35%

This thankfully includes movement, reaction, and regen times

The Seraph Shoulders are my favorite but I can't use them to their full potential yet.

They have been weakened however, they are recovering their power at a slow pace thanks to Gabriel being a chosen of God and now me I guess but not really

They allow one to fly with wings plain and simple

Or it would be if I didn't read the description that they came with

[Seraph Shoulders:

The Owner will also be able to perform "miracles"

Notice all of these shall become part of the User when he maxes out the bonding.]

It's OP and I love it

I have to wear it and make sure to infuse it with power from the light medallion which I am right now

I got the items from the end of the main story, not the DLC which explains how Gabriel was able to fight the Forgotten One. I am pretty sure he had the Seraph Shoulder at 99% power so close right before he became a vampire.

I am not actually angry at this since I 'completed' some achievements that came with the [Gabriel Belmont] Template

Things like getting the Vampire Killer for myself.

Get the flasks of Holy Water.

Stuff like that

Sure the rewards are kind of subpar

But useful nonetheless

For the Vampire Killer, I got the pillar that upgrades it and a few blueprints for different add-ons for it.

For the Holy Flasks, I got a small fountain of 'holy' water which replenishes itself after a few days

Cyclone boots, I got Cornell's hammer

Serap Wings, I got a weapon rack that infuses weapons with 'holy' power

For the Dark Gauntlet, I got another Dark Gauntlet except this one is for the right hand

Now the Light and Dark medallions are my start in magic

In the games, they were never really explored all that much

But they are one of the reasons why Gabriel succeded in his quest

The Light medallion allows me to heal by taking the stamina of those I hit. It makes me do more damage to 'unholy' beings. Gives me minor resistance to possession. As well as being a source of light magic that Gabriel studied but he never really got into practice at most he is a beginner barely even a novice.

He was mostly taught how to fight physically as I have an outside perspective. I know that they didn't want to teach him how to use light magic in order for him to be killed easily. They trained him in the arts of physical combat until Gabriel managed to beat all of his teachers. Then he was allowed to study light magic

Study

No practice

They fed him a lie

They lied to him by saying that knowing about magic first before practicing was imperative to someone learning about magic.

It's like someone reading about how to use code without ever actually practicing

It obviously came back to bite them as he used what he remembered about it and applied it to his journey.

He was only given 5 books on light magic and they were mostly about theory.

The fuckers

Obviously, they didn't account for Gabriel's holy empowerment. He was able to improvise his use of light magic. Such as healing by striking enemies and empowering his equipment with it.

The Dark Medallion lets me do more damage to 'holy' begins. It gives me enhanced strength and speed when using it however, it loses its effects rather quickly due to Gabriel's affinity to Holy magic

Something that he studied about it is that the medallion can be used as a refillable replacement for rituals that require a sacrifice. Although, afterward it needs a week to go back to full power.

I calm myself down as I know that completing an achievement will give me the Dracula the Dragon template.

I have to defeat people similar to that of the Lords of Shadow

This is honestly easier than anything

Circe for Sobek

Lycaon for Cornell

Ambrogio for Carmilla

Defeating someone similar to the Forgotten One will give me the LOS2 Pack which includes everything from the second game that Dracula owns.

I can't wait

I go over to the kitchen as my mom is cooking and say that I will be back soon

As I go out of my [Home] I am outside the city of New York

I am going to fight someone that deserves

I think while I can sense someone coming over to me

"Punk," I hear next to me as I smile

"You are going to pay for humiliating and ruining what could have been the best war in history,' Said Ares like the dumbass that he is

"Well, then war god," I say turning to him lazily trying to look and sound as mocking as I can

I bring out Vampire Killer and twirl it around

"Show me what an Olympian is capable of," I said while he roared and charged at me

I lash out with Vampire Killer as it wraps around his hands holding his claymore, the spikes on the chain digging into his flesh as he screams an ichor pours out.

I quickly appear in front of him and stab him in the stomach with the back end of my cross-whip and extend the pike on it and Ares screams out loud.

The pike severing his spine coming out of his back

"Ares, I welcome a challenge truly," I said to him while I move the chain and wrap it around his neck and the spikes pierce his neck as he continues to scream

"But you are not a challenge perhaps Athena is truly your better in every single way," I said to him while he looked at me in hatred but I just slammed my fist into his face

"You know I get that you are the god of war, you represent the violent aspect of it. But, why are you so useless? Your sister Enyo would be better as an Olympian than you. Athena represents every aspect of War. Not just that Athena actually has fighting skills and experience. You only have experience. Honestly, when Dionysus became a god you should have offered your throne to him, people call him useless but in reality, you are the most useless of the gods second only to Hestia," I said to him while glaring at me

"I know you are angry like the animal that you are. So let me tell you this Ares," I said while getting close to his face

"Get in my way before my Sixteenth birthday and I will kill every single demigod you have. Not just that I will desecrate and destroy every temple you have left. I will hunt down the fanatics that still worship you. I will kill anyone who would even say your name in a positive light. I will let those that ridicule and offend you live. You are no god Ares, just a plague on this world," I lie to him while he looks at me with his eyes wide.

I grab Vampire Killer and rip it out

I step on his hand and place my fingers on his right eye

"Just something for you to remember me by," I say to him cruelly

I pluck his eye out while his screams echoed throughout the forest
