The Duke's Passion-Chapter 875 Protector of their kind
875 Protector of their kind
Samacl's jaw dropped, watching Tilly's continuous attacks while Zero took everything without fighting back. Samacl would almost feel sorry for the latter, but he was more appalled.
How in the world did this demon fall into such a bluff?
It was akin to watching two children with the other having a much more powerful parent, threatening the other kid to tell on the other if he fought back! Samael had seen this scenario when Law was still going to school.
Who would have thought he would witness such a sight again?
"This..." Samael ran his tongue across his inner cheek... is truly a baffling situation. Is his brother that terrifying?"
While Samael was wondering about what kind of person Tilly's brother was, Tilly took advantage of the situation. She didn't take a pause nor did she hold back. Each of her attacks left a mark on Zero's body, treating him as a sandbag without mercy.
After countless attacks. Tilly's attack came to a halt.
"Do... not make me laugh, Sloth." Zero was able to grab the other end of the nunchucks while Tilly landed in the distance. The chain connecting the nunchucks extended. Tilly held the other end and Zero on the other.
"Do you think such a lame threat is enough to stop me?" Zero's voice rumbled low. "How insolent!"
"I thought it worked" Tilly frowned, realizing her opponent didn't react due to shock.
'Even I was shocked. I can understand him in this case. Samael mentally nodded.
"Did you say that bastard will come here if I kill you?" Zero sneered wickedly. "If so, I have more reason to kill you first. That will save me time to search for that damn demon."
"Did he tease you before?"

"Ilah! My grudge toward Wrath runs deeper than I have toward any of you in this world." Zero hung his head low, trying to calm himself down. "That man... I will never forget that horrendous face of his. I pledged that once I broke free from my seal, I will be the one to tear that wicked smile on his face."
Tilly blinked. "Did he steal your food?"
"Stealing... Hah!" Zero slowly raised his head while grinding his teeth. "He did more than steal, Sloth. Your brother had tortured me while I was kept locked in the underground facility in that mansion for his pleasure. I will kill him!"
"I see. So you were playmates."
"Is she even listening?" mumbled Samael at Tilly's understanding of the demon's sentiments. Zero glared at Tilly with murderous intent but decided not to argue with her. "Nevermind. You narrow-minded folks who lack ambition will never understand,' he chortled mockingly. "There's no use in talking to a dimwit like you. I already planned to kill every single Grimsbanne long ago. Once I annihilate every single one of your kind, this world will grovel at my feet!" Zero announced confidently. One could tell death was the only way to stop him.
This demon was just like the original Zero. No wonder the demon fit Zero's body perfectly. Their obsession with power and ruling this world was just equal.
Perhaps that was the reason Zero and this demon didn't work together. Their goal was the same and because of that, they had to eliminate each other to see who was worthy. The demon won, obviously. In terms of strength and experience, Zero was akin to a child to him.
"How foolish," whispered Tilly, but still somehow reached Zero and Samael's keen ears. "Did you think you could rule the world after you slew every single Grimsbanne?"
"The Grimsbanne stands as a protector of our kind. We exist to put balance in this world. Did you think our blood is everything? If it is so precious, then why are we imprisoned in this very blood that sustained us?" Tilly's expression turned gloomy. "The fate of the Grimsbanne was nothing as fancy as how others perecived it. You will not understand, for you have received mercy. Unlike us, the seeds who had to fight every single day against the demons banging the doors in our hearts."
"Vampires... were nothing but just another race trying to have a place in this cruel world. World dominance? How foolish to underestimate this world." Her grip on her weapon tightened, keeping her eyes on her opponent. "Your horizons were bigoted and narrow for not considering the other creatures in this vast world. No matter how powerful one is, there is always a match born in this world to equal him."
"Surely, lowly creatures such as yourself will find this appalling. But then again, you do not have a brain to analyze it," she added in an utterly serious tone, as if she didn't mean to insult him, but rather just being honest. "Now, I have more reasons to end you myself. Even if I fail, someone else will do it for me."
"Tilly..." Samacl muttered, a bit surprised at Tilly's speech. It was no secret Tilly was a woman with a few words. But this time felt different.
Tilly was triggered upon hearing about Zero's plans for world dominance.
Even the original Zero wanted to be God. More people in this world wanted to play god; this demon and Zero weren't the only ones. Therefore, Samael wasn't surprised at the demon's plans since he had encountered countless people who had the same ambition. Yet Tilly found it. unacceptable.
She might've not said it herself, but that was what Samael felt after hearing her speech. "Heh..." Zero let out a dry laugh, keeping his focus on Tilly. "Do not worry. Someone might rise one day to stop me, but I am certain that will not be you, Sloth!"
The moment Zero's voice thundered, he pulled the end of Tilly's weapon. The chains between them gradually turned short, lessening the distance between them.
Tilly allowed herself to get dragged, holding onto the other end of the weapon. When she was near, she adjusted her position until her feet were in front.
As soon as they were in each other's vicinity, Tilly and Zero exchanged blows. They still held the ends of her weapon, battling in close combat.
