RE:BORN Zombie-Chapter 139 [Bonus chapter] Annihilation III
Veritas immediately followed up her attack as she dashed towards Victor with a heavy left punch, layering it with a spinning right elbow after her initial attack was blocked again for the second time. However, her elbow was stopped before it made contact as Victor pulled up his left hand across to the other side to stop the attack with his palm. This was also the only time the others were able to catch a glimpse of what had just happened, but in the end to them it was all happening in mere split seconds.
At that very moment Victor stopped the attack and Veritas thought she was about to get hit since she was defenceless, she heard her opponent say something, “Not bad.” This was what she heard, but unfortunately she didn’t have time to think about it, as the scene around her changed that instant in the blink of an eye.
While still mid air from her attack, Victor tossed her body behind him as he pulled on her arm and flung her behind. Of course, he wouldn’t kill her so easily. She pulled herself up immediately as soon as she could, but to her surprise, her entire right arm was missing from the shoulder below. She didn’t even have time to scan the area, not that she had to worry. A new arm just seamlessly grew out of her shoulder, at an astonishing speed no less, and one has to say, there was nothing better for Victor, right.
Back at the vampire castle, everyone including Dracula himself were thrown completely off character as they all hurried to find where Victor and Veritas were.
Victor and Veritas on the other hand, had been fighting for a while now, and the earlier expectations Victor had were beginning to fade. The problem lied in that fact that the flesh he took off his opponent’s body would just fade away and turn to fine dust particles after a few seconds, and eating it immediately fared no different.
Victor had really thought he hit the jackpot, as if he was to eat the flesh of someone so strong, the evolution material he would get out of it would be nothing compared to anyother, but sadly for him it won’t be possible.
According to his system, it was something to do with Veritas being ethereal in a way, and so her physical body wasn’t her actual body, she was more or less just possessing the body and exerting her strength through it. Hearing this, Victor could only wonder who she was really.
If so, there was no way she was using her actual power of when she was still alive and on about, so Victor could only imagine how much stronger she was. Well, that was only in body, her skills wer still intact and as powerful, so Victor doubted she would be too troublesome. As for himself, he was yet to fight seriously, he only had to put in some effort not to be pushed around, and he was quickly getting the upper hand in the fight.
Maybe it was because of the body Veritas came into couldn’t handle her power for too long if used as it was at the moment, Victor could feel her getting tired and slower physically, and her attacks no longer held as much strength as it did some moment ago.
‘If there’s nothing to gain from her, then I absolutely don’t need her around.’ Victor thought to himself.
Some moment later, Dracula and his people would appear at the area where Victor was having what seemed to be an intense battle with his opponent, but the sight that awaited them was something they would never have imagined even after a million years.
As the first vampires arrived, all they could see was Veritas, lips locked with Victor, as his hand went through her mid section. Just then, she seemed to start decaying from her head to the other parts, and after some seconds, those decayed parts would turn to dust and get blown away by the wind. (Big man took fisting too far…)
‘What the fuck? Is this some kind of live action slice of life, romance anime?’
‘Or is this some kind of Korean fairy tale.’
‘This shit can only happen in a shitty Chinese film!’
Was what the vampires watching would have thought, if only they were more easy going with life.
As Veritas faded into dust, Victor was left thinking why she had done what she did with the kiss and all, and her words of finding him… It was certainly weird. Anyway, he was glad to see that Rot bite was still as effective as ever.
Victor turned his attention to the the vampires that stood some distance away from where he currently was, sending a chill down their spines with his stare. In an instant appeared before them, and the mere aura he was emitting caused quite a few to want to wipe the cold sweat off their backs.
“I won’t ask twice.. Who was that?” Victor said. 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎
“Crow, do you think you can control us? The royal and esteemed family of the vampire ra!-” Dracula was saying, before he was cut short suddenly as Victor placed a hand around his face, and at that same moment he went silent.
‘Touch of Death.’
From his hand, Dracula’s body vanished into nothingness, but of course the others were unaware he had place it in his inventory.
“Anyone else care to speak?” Victor asked again, more now his tone colder than the first time.
The vampires easily gave into the pressure and gave information about all they knew and anyother note worthy thing. Victor was sure they withheld some information, but he didn’t have time to bring it out of them, nor did he care about it.
He then went on from that point in to kill every single vampire the Emricks had to offer, not leaving behind even a single one of them like he did with the rest.
The thing after all this though, was that one of them was able to escape. Though at first Victor didn’t know about this, when he noticed the fact that Damien was missing from the vampires he had killed, he also caught unto the fact that his master was also missing.
Victor could only look towards the gate that led to their world and let it go for the time being, it wasn’t worth it.
“For now, let’s see how much these give me.” He said as he looked at the massive collection of bodies in his system. Certainly, the Emricks seemed to have made more vampires in preparation for this day, too bad it all went to the drains.
On this day, the Royal blood of the vampire race were driven into extinction… Well, except for the missing two.
