Chapter 5: Something That Couldn't Be Explained

Prophetia was really mad right now but she didn't say anything more.

She sighed and spoke, "So, you are leaving?"

"Yes." Zodiac nodded.

"Your mother would be hurt."

"I know."

"Then, why?"

"Because I will start my new identity. Not this identity but a new."

Prophetia looked at Zodiac and spoke, "This is the reason your mother didn't tell who you were, because you would leave her."

"I wouldn't leave her permanently. I will come soon. Very soon." He spoke with determination in his eyes.

"Well, if you say so." Prophetia shrugged. This wasn't her problem.

"By the way, how much you know about me?" Zodiac asked and finished the tea.

"Not much." She thought for a second and spoke, "A little bit of things like who you are and who made you and some other things."

"Hmm." He nodded.

"I also know that you removed the seal on you." Prophetia spoke with sparkle in her eyes.

Zodiac raised his eyebrow at her expression.

"Can you tell what are they?"

"I didn't check them."

Prophetia stretched her right hand and spoke, "Grab my hand with yours and use any of your bloodline. You have many, right?"

Zodiac looked at the fair hand of Goddess and then, grabbed hers with his.

He focused and brought forth his bloodline of dragon.

He had the bloodline of many races. Those were, dragons, phoenixes, vampires, Gods and even witches (he is a man, 'kay!).

This was why he was shocked when he got to know about himself and his hate toward the king grew.

Even though, he made him and gave him life but what he did was nothing but inhumane. He created something that could kill him and his loved ones.

One can say he was a complete anomaly.

Even anomaly would be understatement.

Prophetia focused her power on his hand more specifically his bloodline. She knew what he was made of.

When she felt his bloodline she thought, 'Oh, dragon.'

She then sensed the power and what she sensed made her sweat.

She opened her eyes abruptly and spoke, "T-this....T-this....T-this...."

She couldn't say anything.

Zodiac frowned and spoke, "What is it?"

Zodiac knew only she could help him figure out his bloodline. He could do that himself by using his powers out of instincts but it could hurt him as powers wouldn't be normal.

"I.... couldn't figure it out." She spoke with sweat dripping on her face.

Zodiac frowned deeply and released her hand. He didn't know what was happening. He knew she was the only Goddess and being who could measure another bloodline. Even someone proficient in blood can't do it. Or if someone is proficient in soul powers but no one exists like it right now.

On the other hand, Prophetia was also deep in thoughts. She was drenched in sweat because she couldn't figure out his power and also when she wanted to figure out his bloodline.

She went deep into his body and what she saw made her fear. She didn't fear anything this much in her life.

She saw something she couldn't explain but she knew she saw something or rather that something was staring at her, no that something was staring at her soul.

She shuddered by remembering it. She looked down and her eyes widened.

She had peed.

She looked at Zodiac and thought, 'What terrific monster that man had made.'

She now knew why she sensed hate in him so much.

That king made Zodiac a weapon. A weapon for humanity but now he was going to leave the humanity and will make a new identity.

Prophetia secretly cleansed herself by snapping her fingers. This was the world between reality and fiction, so here anything can be done just be imagination.

Prophetia looked at Zodiac and spoke, "So, what are you going to do?"

Zodiac came out of his thoughts and looked at the Goddess.

"I will go to Evernight."

"Then?"

"I don't know. But I think I will marry there."

Prophetia raised an eyebrow, "To whom?"

"Heh. I have someone in mind but it depends." He shrugged.

Prophetia sighed and spoke, "Fine. Anyway, I will talk to you in your mind as that will not take much of my energy."

Zodiac nodded.

Then, his sight turned dark.

In the bathtub, he opened his eyes slowly and first thing he saw was the crying face of Lilith.

He was shocked. He stood up and looked at her.

"What happened?"

"I-i saw b-b-blood....hic, hic." Lilith spoke between cries.

Zodiac sighed, knowing why she was crying.

She was crying because she saw blood in his room and was scared.

He hugged her tightly and opened his mouth.

Today, he is gonna tell her everything and also if she wants to go with him or not.

...

In a large room with no light and only darkness, three figures were sitting around a round table.

"Soon we are gonna kill those bitches!" A man spoke with anger in them.

"You are right, Nigreos." Another man spoke who was sitting on opposite side of the man known as Nigreos.

"This will be fun, Leobart." Nigreos laughed like a madman.

Leobart also laughed but the man at the head seat didn't say anything.

The man was the Vampire King. His red eyes shone in darkness.

Seeing Vampire King, the two men stopped laughing and gulped.

Even though, their faces were hidden by darkness, they knew he was angry.

"Soon, I will get my whole kingdom back."

As he spoke, the room trembled a bit.

This was the power of 8tb Ascension.

He then closed his eyes.

The two men looked at each other, clearly nervous. They sighed in relief but their nervousness didn't fade away.

These two men knew Vampire King was angry because of his family.

Also, because of the traitors.

If Vampire King could, he would have killed each and every of his enemies but he couldn't.

Even though, he was angry he still didn't lose his rationality. If he hurt the Countesses, there will be retaliations and this kingdom would be at its weakest.

Thus, many other kingdoms could attack.

If a lion is heavily injured, he could kill one jackal but not several of them.

...

A/N: Sup, fellas. I revealed about Zodiac a bit. Even though, it may sound a bit exaggerating but he is an anomaly, also about how he was made will be revealed soon but not very soon. Also, wait for next part. He will be married or not, you will see or read 😜.
