"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! " Amanel was laughing like crazy when he saw how Christopher got attacked by the holy barrier.
But not for too long as a sudden movement coming from the ruins of the same house shut his mouth.
*Clap, *Clap, *Clap
"Nice trick Amanel..." Christopher clapped his hands as he got up from the pieces of wood that fell upon him.
Seeing his burned face, his body with visible bones and burned flesh, and how all those wounds started to heal quickly, Amanel gulped from fear.
Even his clothes which were on the verge of turning into ash began to repair somehow.
An even more oppressive aura began to creep up on the Angel when Christopher moved, and a strain of his black hair fell on his face, covering his left eye.
"... But I must say..." Christopher continued "It was an unpleasant feeling."
When those words got registered inside the minds of the Angel and the Vampire present, Rox and Amanel began to act strangely like wolves in a cage.
They started to back away, looking for the best possible way to escape this upcoming hell.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~" Christopher began to laugh upon seeing their pathetic attempts to escape while with elegant and confident steps, he started to follow them like a shadow of death.
[... A few minutes ago, boarders of the Village ...]
"Where is Darling? " asked Hissami as she turned behind and saw Christopher how he got kicked by the barrier.
"What?! " she said and together with Samantha, Anna, and Selena they ran back only to find out they couldn't do anything about it.
Therefore, they stayed there, awaiting their Darling to get up!
...
[... Present ...]
In his noble, blood-red aristocratic clothes worthy of a leader, Christopher was walking toward Amanel while his mind began to be overflowed by sudden memories and actions from his past while his heart was overflowing with pain and other negative feelings of his dying people while he was stuck here.
While thinking about his kingdom being attacked, he thought too about how miserable his life become.
Not that it was truly miserable, just that the last remnants of Humanity he was clinging to and the Holiness he was still affected by were forming these feelings inside him.
He needed to unite with the monster inside him, and for that, he needed an evolution.
But not the evolution of his body, or soul, but his mindset and mind alone...
'Christopher, can you do this for me? Christopher do that! Christopher do this! Christopher? Christopher! CHRISTOPHER! ' Voices played in his mind as he finally understood that to this moment, people were controlling him without him even seeing it.
Some may have done it unconsciously but others might had their own plans. Plans about using him for their own profit, just like Rox.
'I should be the most fearsome existence but why do I feel so weak? ' he spoke to himself while looking at his own hands with disdain, a gesture seen by his two enemies as well.
"Kindness and helping is good but too much kindness is not. Remember you can't help everyone, Christopher," a mysterious voice of someone very close to him suddenly echoed through his mind as something broke free in him.
Those chains holding the monster on the spot started crumbling as he imagined what would be his father's reaction, after seeing him being used like this.
Who at the same time was the owner of that mysterious voice in his mind.
'I'm disappointed Christopher. You're not someone's pawn but you're still acting like one! Why? What's the reason for being a restrained puppet? " the voice said.
"You are no longer a Human but a Vampire! Get rid of humanity and embrace your new existence like you should have from the start! "
His father's voice with the sounds of chains being fully broken was heard more and louder but not by anyone from the outside world, only by him in his own mind.
"Stop being controlled and fight against it! Don't be someone's toy! Is it for girls? There are billions of them out there, ready to sleep with you at any time! "
"Just find another and don't lose your worth and time with a girl that doesn't deserve it! Son, you can literally form a harem and no one is going to judge you for it! "
"Look at yourself, you're so handsome that even a married and happy woman would jump on you like a hungry slut, remember that! "
"..."
A sudden purple light started enveloping Christopher's soul, forming a bubble in Christopher's body as Nicolle spoke: "What is happening, Ardelean? "
["I don't have the slightest clue but something is changing the core of Christopher's soul..."]
Ardelean replayed with a shocked expression as he looked around as something intervened and started changing the insides of Christopher's soul, just like when Christopher met his future self.
Ardelean, not knowing what this process started was speechless. Nothing like this ever happened in the past as everything that was normal a few seconds ago was now transforming completely.
["He really is unique..."] Ardelean mumbled as Christopher's soul became brighter with a powerful glow.
At that moment, Ardelean looked at the big screen in front of him, through which he and Nicolle could see what Christopher could see.
["I wonder whose voice is that..."] Ardelean thought as he continued to watch the scene in front of him, through Christopher's eyes.
"Is it for friends? They are losers if they are using you! No true friend would use you for their own profit! "
"Or is it for power? You can gain power after some time with training and experience."
"Whatever reason you have to act like this, my son, it needs to end up now! Do something and don't be a lazy fool! This is not how my son should operate! You are the son of a secret agent, the son of a soldier who fought the deadliest beings in my century, yet they were the ones who fell, not me."
"You have the exact genes as me, you have the same powers I have, so use it. This century is yours, son, and how will you operate it, the ways you'll take through it, and the choices you'll make during this century will matter at the end of the time."
"So, throw away all those foolish reasons, work hard, and fight like a true man! Like my son! I raised you to be a MAN so do something against it or you'll end up like our neighbor BOB who is incompetent, fat, and lazy! "
"Do you wanna turn into Bob and lose all your women? " his father's voice, formed by his own mind echoed around, giving him a dose of motivation as he could see someone resembling his father, standing in the distance with crossed arms and disapproving gaze.
"I will fight. This ends now Father, I promise! " he spoke to himself with his inner voice as sips of darkness started escaping his hands and dark purple irises formed in his fully black eyes while the person in the distance nodded in approval.
"Good~ Then do it! But don't take our talk as an order for you to change. You can continue to be a useless shit if you want... I'm just trying to help you."
"Then how should I take it? " Christopher asked.
"Take it as a speech of motivation. An opportunity to truly show who you are and what can you do. You know, there is a thin line between an order and help or motivation. That's why I'm explaining this to you so I'm not gonna be misunderstood."
"Alright Dad... I'll see you soon."
Christopher responded to the voice produced by his own mind as if it was a real being while a powerful pillar of purple light erupted from his body as his skin turned paler than it was and the cracks on his face and body started closing, as if he was finally complete.
His fully black hair turned completely white and his entire aura turned hostile while purple lighting started falling from the sky and black clouds formed on the previously cloudless night sky, hiding the moon behind them again.
With each fallen lightning, the ground started catching fire but the fire was not normal, it was black and white with more destructive properties than the normal fire. It was faster and more hostile when approached by Christopher's enemies who were now looking around pretty confused, not knowing what was happening.
The man in front of them was changing and they didn't like it.
Thousands of souls started flying around the Darkness Lord with powerful shrieks as if they were singing a demonic song, cheering their leader who gained another new appearance. Their voices were united and it looked like only Christopher understood them. After all, he was their Master!
Christopher's brides were watching everything with awe. Their future husband /disciple surprised them again, and this surprise was a beautiful and tasty-looking one.
"Let's dance, my friends" spoke Christopher while looking at Amanel as his face turned to the girls behind him who all got slightly pushed by an unknown force, further away from the golden barrier.
"Darling, what are you doing? Why are you so angry? " asked Anna who felt that push the most, after all, she was closest to the barrier, and only then did they fully see Christopher's entire new appearance.
"Not now, my dear. I have a work to do! " Christopher replied telepathically.
Without any other gentle words, Christopher turned forward while transforming into a bunch of black bats and dodged the beam of light power sent by a desperate Amanel that was flying towards him with ease.
While flying to the middle of the battlefield, the light beam crashed with the golden barrier and exploded, leaving clouds of smoke to rise to the sky.
Arriving in the middle and transforming back into his human form in a matter of seconds, Christopher pointed the palm of his hand towards the sky, forming a barrier of his own, above Amanel's barrier while his eyes were glued on the Angel and his moves.
In the middle of forming the barrier, an angular silver ring with a black stone of the same shape resting on his right hand started glowing. It was the same one he found when he lost his virginity with Melissa and Ariane and it's the same one Selena was talking about with The Darkness dragon.
'One of the seven pieces of the Aragos' Eye. Did he unlock the power of it? But it should kill him?! How?! ' Selena was speechless and full of questions right now, while silently watching Christopher with other girls from behind the barrier that was now truly impossible to pass through.
"What are you doing? " Amanel asked with interest as he landed on the ground.
The wind was blowing around Christopher, almost forming a weaker tornado as their gazes were fixed on each other.
"Don't take me wrong your barrier is strong Angel, but mine is stronger," Christopher replayed with a slight smile.
["Host, what are you doing? We had a plan! Your people are dying! "] Ardelean asked with slight anger.
'And? I changed the plan. If you don't like it, you can leave and crawl back to Styx from where you came...'
["What's wrong with you? You sound... different."]
'I changed my priorities. I had enough of being a pawn in everyone else's games.'
["What priorities?! Our main priority is to gain the Eye and free-"]
'Shut your mouth Ardelean! I don't care anymore about any old weapon of some Christian God, or grudges the Darkness with the old Light hag has.'
'All I care about is to finally leave this cursed piece of land and kill the wet dog who thinks he can ask for my wife's hand! Are you with me or not? '
'I am! ' Nicolle's sudden response formed a wider smile on Christopher's face and a shocked expression on Ardelean's.
Christopher was glad Nicolle stayed with him even when he never saw her face or interacted with her too much. But all he knew was how much he would miss his system's voice. Even when he was not using it anymore.
...
Inside Christopher's soul, Ardelean looked at Nicolle in disbelief. Her cheeks were slightly blushed and her always disinterested gaze somehow gained a slight glow of amusement. She was pleased by how Christopher acted right now.
Without knowing what she was actually doing and what might, standing against the place where she came from, bring, she unconsciously spoke up and stood with her Master and Christopher valued this loyalty a lot.
["I'm-"] Seeing that Nicolle is in her own world, Ardelean wanted to respond too but:
...
"My barrier is weak? Hahahaha! Weak? Hahaha... Do you think I'm WEAKER than YOU VAMPIRE?! " Amanel's sudden angry voice interrupted Ardelean's and Christopher's conversation who nodded without the slightest change in his smiling expression.
"Yes you are~"
"BASTARD! I'm going to wipe that shitty smile from your ugly face! "
"Try it jealous angel, but I'm telling you. I'm not trapped here with you, you are trapped here with me~" Christopher smiled more as he finished covering Amanel's entire barrier around the village with his own as another powerful black beam exploded from his body towards the sky like a wingless Chinese dragon.
The beam was attracting the attention of the dead vampires' souls whom he killed here.
All around the village, a few hundred vampire souls started getting up from their dead bodies in the appearance of Imp demons and started running towards their Lord's body, entering it one after another.
While the souls were entering his body, Christopher raised his hand again in the height of his face and moved it to the left side slightly, ordering all the dark souls holding Rox to let him go and join the other thousands of flying souls that were forming a whirlpool around Christopher.
All this with just a slight move of his hand and the piercing gaze of a dragon.
"Rox, join that Angel... I'm starting to be annoyed by how are things developing on this planet."
"We are all Supernaturals here, yet, every single opponent I had was weak and insignificant. So please, be a good boy and join the winged Idiot's side. I hope you two working together are going to give me a decent fight at the very least."
"What are you talking about? " Rox, who was for an unknown reason to us shocked and was squeezing his hand tightly from a pain caused by the souls' grip, asked.
"Shut your mouth and fight, ROX! Talking is for the women and fight is for a man! "
"If you are a true man then fight and stop talking or by me, you are considered a useless existence that should be extinguished right now! " Christopher growled at Rox who shuddered.
Christopher's face wasn't pretty at all, mainly his fully black draconic eyes that had purple irises shaped like lizards have.
But seeing no other choice, Rox formed a sword made from his blood powers and wielded its blade at Christopher.
"Good~ That's exactly what I wanted to see. Now Ladies and Gentlemen, let's fight for our lives, shall we? " Christopher opened his arms wide as if he was welcoming an old friend while his face formed an imperceptible smile.
"YOU ARE DONE VAMPIRE! " Amanel shouted as he began to run at Christopher at a fast pace, forming two swords of pure light in his hands while his eyes and hair glowed in golden light.
His wings sharpened and started releasing a white glow as his face took an expression of full anger at which the terrain around him started collapsing as if his mind was controlling it.
The ground was painted by his glowing, gold steps while the aura of his swords was scratching the ground while he was running.
Rox started running too with great speed, aiming his blade towards his target and the only thing Christopher did was to smile more and more, widely like a demon as his body transformed into a bunch of bats and he flew towards the angel who was closer to him, clashing with him.
The explosion formed by the crash of their auras looked like when two powerful forces crashed with each other, each representing the opposite of the balance sheet.
While Christopher's was dark and hostile, Amanel's was pure and holy.
Transforming back into a human, Christopher and Amanel started exchanging deadly blows in positions and stances of material arts from different timelines.
Amanel was attacking with his swords as a skilled ninja while Christopher was blocking them with his bare hands without any visible damage like a boxer.
The Angel suddenly spun and kicked Christopher's face with the back of his foot while Christopher quickly formed a shadow dagger and pierced Amanel's tight with it.
The wound was pretty deep as holy light started escaping from it, but the Angel's wound lasted only for a few seconds before it healed.
Meanwhile, Christopher was sent flying by the kick and after a few somersaults in the air, his body crashed into a building where Rox was already waiting for him.
As a born genius and with the teachings of his dad, he knew that fighting like Amanel would be impossible for him. He was more used for a stealthy approach so therefore, he waited aside for his opportunity like a Hyena.
And there it was.
With a wide smile, Rox slashed the air in front of him horizontally, releasing a wave of blood power with the intention to cut off Christopher's head.
But Christopher quickly pulled himself out from the facade of the house and raised the palm of his right hand against the wave of blood.
The blood wave suddenly stopped and started acting strangely, forming a blood-red spear.
When the process was done within three seconds, Christopher pulled it toward him, grabbed the spear, and pierced Rox's body like a Spartan. Then he kicked his face which pulled the spear out from his body while he was sent flying.
Holding the spear, Christopher consumed it as he felt like a new skill was unlocked in his memories.
Forming the spear again, it was now connected to Christopher's back, pulling the blood from his body constantly as if to maintain its appearance, while acting like his other limb.
Its appearance changed as well. Now, the blood spear had black veins covering it.
'A mutation probably? ' Christopher thought and with a slight unconscious move of his right hand, the spear suddenly flew from his back like a launched rocket, aiming at Rox.
Seeing the spear, Rox just sighed, and in the next millisecond, he was pierced by it.
Coughing up blood on the ground, Rox died...
'Toxic, I like that~' Christopher smiled within his mind when he saw the properties of the spear affecting Rox's organism.
With his enhanced gaze, he saw how the spear started being consumed by Rox's body which formed black veins on his face and turned his skin color into an extremely pale one...
