06- "Awakening of the beast"

In an Unknown place of the Omniverse is possible to see a woman, the woman in question could only be described as perfect, in every sense of the word, her movements possessed the perfect balance between elegance and efficiency. She could only be described as the most beautiful thing inside and outside of existence, but in the end, her appearance would only cause madness in those who saw her, why can you ask?

The answer was very simple she was (perfect) but that was anathema, nothing in existence should be perfect because existence in itself is flawed, her existence was paradoxical as a perfect thing shouldn't be capable of existing inside a flawed system.

The woman in question has long dark hair that remembers the confines of space if you look closely it was possible to see endless galaxies that seem to appear and disappear across her hair, currently, she was in a very interesting position right now one of her hands was between her legs doing some kind of repetitive movement? Her eyes were rolling in her head, her generous breasts going up and down on the same rhythm of her respiration...

Suddenly she comes to a halt and starts to spasm for some seconds her body relaxes, during that time her control slips, and in that instant, her shadow expands to englobe all her room, and from her shadow, hundreds of tentacles, eyes, and mouths seem to come to reality she fastly regains control and all of them fade like illusions...

"Ah, why must his stay here be so short? "

She knew that he was still not strong enough to resist her presence even that of this (Vessell) the short time she could push his mind in here will have to be enough for the next year's...

He was her husband, she could wait for him for all eternity if was needed, he was also her favorite son...

She was not his mother from the mortal point of view, but if she says she is who is going to challenge her claims? She is Azathoth the Daemon Sultan, The Deep Dark, The Cold One, and all Outer gods can be considered her children...

A man and two women can be seen walking in a corridor in the direction of a small auditorium, every time a zombie approach them they were swiftly dispatched by the purple-haired woman with a wooden sword.

Solomon wanted to help, but he didn't have a weapon in his hands right now, but he have the impression that if he starts to cut zombies into pieces with his bare hands like some kind of madman, his recently redeemed reputation would start to decline again. So he used this free time to talk with the system about some of his doubts. 'System what are my available options of evolution?'

['I will show you the list']

[First vampire/Hellsing]

[ True Vampire/Overlord]

[Original /the vampire diaries(tv series)]

[Vampire/Elder scrolls]

[Progenitor/Strike the blood]

[Dead apostle ancestor/Nasuverse]

After seeing the available options and reading their resumed descriptions he started to make his analysis.

'The first one is tempting, the ability to summon my dead enemy's sounds cool, and those extra lives + [curse of temporal reversion] sounds almost unfair for my foes, but in the department of basic abilities is lacking, survivability means nothing if you don't have the power to kill your enemies.'

'The second lacks both in the basic and special ability department so nope, the third only has one way of being killed + [curse of temporal reversion] makes me even more immortal but have the same problem of the first one no firepower.'

'The fourth one is a NO. No amount of power is enough to make me sell my soul to a serial r@p!st, and is not even that much power, to begin with, the fifth has a bunch of different powers but how can I say this, he is the circus monkey of vampires, he has many tricks but little utility in real life, I mean all the elemental attacks are cool but any mage out there could do the same, I doubt he could even kill me.'

'And the last one and my personal favorite [Dead Apostle Ancestor] to begin with they are not a different species or even an evolution of [Dead Apostle].'

'They are the same thing.'

'[Dead Apostle Ancestor] is the title given to the members of a group known as [27 Dead Apostle Ancestors] they are the best of or kind and the most interesting part is the variety of powers and forms that they range from if you have to say what characteristics better define the group members It would be their uniqueness.'

'Ranging from a living forest to a man who is an amalgamation of 666 creatures, and even a beast created by the planet to exterminate humankind, can you see the pattern here? And the motive of why I truly choose this, in the end, the system says that the evolution and (perks) will be personalized for me, so I am making a bet, this can turn me into some kind of undead tentacle abomination or the super undead, I consider both of them good options so win-win situation here...'

'System show me the requirements of [Dead Apostle Ancestor]'

'That's much harder than I expected, but now this world looks much more useful I have a world full of training dummies I can start grinding all the basic skills but before that let me try to do something I wanted to test before'

I try to control one of the zombies that are ahead of us, let's try something that will not call too much attention if goes wrong, like an accidental fall on the ground, the zombie seems to stumble in his feet a little...

~Ding~

'Success! before I could feel happy with the news I perceived something, when I tried to control the zombie I could feel a certain resistance but didn't seem to be coming from him it was like someone else was... already "controlling him" I mutter to myself I try to feel it again... Now I could fell it clear like the day, yeah something is guiding his actions. I try to identify the origin of this control and I felt nothing!'

['Wrong!!! try again!!!']

I immediately realized the truth and I felt like an ice spike had pierced my spine my knees started to tremble, for the second time this day I did something that I had done just once before, I felt fear.

It was all around us the puppeteer, and when I realized another thing I felt this time for the first time DESPAIR, the same aura that I could feel all around us was slowly fusing with the cheerful blond woman...

['Do you know why I choose you?']

The system interrupted my thoughts.

['when you died all you could feel was regret, regret for your weaknesses, you tried to lie to yourself and say that you left all behind, but you want to know something from someone who lives in your head, IT'S A FUCKING LIE!!! You want more strength, you hate and regret your weakness']

...

['When you come to this world you asked as a joke about a goal right? Do you want strength? I give you, want a goal? I will give you one too! So stop this shit internal conflict, and start doing something about it!!!']

[World quest unlocked']

I sighed and smiled a little.

'Thanks for reminding me "partner" '

Saying that word awakened distant memories long forgotten about better times...

['Solomon you have a new mission!!']

Hearing the familiar words instinct engraved in his bones. the fruit of years of mental and physical conditioning.

He straightened his back, his formerly slightly slumped shoulders lifted, his formerly clumsy steps became extremely precise and methodical, his uneven breathing began to follow a certain rhythm, his sloppy guarding left no real openings. His eyes turned cold with a calculating glint in them, his posture exuded overwhelming confidence, gone the broken man playing with his shards. In his place was the war hero a killing machine.

With each new step, Solomon took, what appeared to be thousands of notifications sounded but none of the two could care less at the moment

~Ding~

~Ding~

~Ding

~Ding~

~Ding~

...

Those who stood in his way would have hell to pay.

And this world would be the first to be charged.

'What are the mission parameters?'

['Complete or die trying!!!']

'So it's the same as always? huh'

['yea']
