"Die."
"Unngghh?!"
Suddenly, an aura of death grasped Damon's soul, and began to take it away from his physical body!
"Aggrrrgg…! W-What kind of accursed power is thisssss?! AGGGH…! NO…! UNGH…! STOP!"
Damon was particularly strong, so he was able to resist quite well the power of the God of Transmigration! But even then, his soul was already grasped!
The claw of death made of their divine soul quickly closed, crushing the evil vampire's soul, and shattering it into pieces!
Crack… crack!
"Nnnggh…! T-This… It can't be… How can I… UEEGGHH…!"
CRASH!
The soul fragments of Damon were quickly consumed by the split souls, alongside his entire physical body, which was rich in flavor and had some Demon God King fragments as a bonus.

[You acquired [Kelsus' Eye of Combustion]
[You acquired [Anir's Eye of Distortion]
It seemed that Damon's eyes of destruction were the combination of two different eyes that generated such an effect, the Eye of Combustion, and the Eye of Destruction. Combined they created the power to destroy things by twisting them and making them explode, it seems.
…
Within the large tower where Damon lived, many Vampires began to run for their lives.
Many of them had already heard the fight above and how their all-powerful progenitor screamed in agony for whatever reason.
Without any other option, they quickly rushed into the underground areas of their territory, freeing as many slaves or "blood sacks" as they called them as they could, telling them that they were the "good ones" and that they had a "change on the heart".
Most of the people here were young children who had the freshest blood and had been traumatized by the horrible treatment that the Vampires gave to them, many of them were even put into horrendous tortures, and some were also Dhampirs, which Chaotic Faction Vampires abhorred.
Now, they were all being freed as the Vampires that once tortured them prostrated before them.
Of course, they were so scared that they didn't even dare to tell them that they didn't trust them… As they thought that these Vampires would try to kill them or something.
The smartest Vampires knew that there was no way out now that their progenitor was down, even running away and flying as fast as they could prove to be ineffective, although some of the most naïve tried doing that, and the smarter ones heard their cries of agony as monstrous creatures guarding outside devoured them.
When Ervas and Veronica moved down, they found a group of Vampires kneeling and asking for forgiveness, as they had freed the slaves that the pair was just going to free.
"Please forgive us!"
"We have changed our ways, we assure you!"
"Y-Yeah! S-See? I am caressing this Dhampir's hair! She's… so cute! Yeah!"
"Please don't kill us, we'll do whatever you say!!!"
The pair of split souls who were still in their fused form, which exuded an aura of death, life, and blood, glared at them from above.
"That won't be left on my decision, but that of them…"
The fused split souls then healed the wounds of the slaves and then asked them to tell them the truth.
Most of the kids cried in fear and anguish, pointing at the Vampires.
"He killed my mom and tortured me all this time! Buaaaaahhh!"
"H-He touched my parts!"
"She always hit me with a whip! It always hurt! Sniff…"
"They're all evil! The other day that one cut a slice of my skin!"
The fused split souls glared at the Vampires with their four crimson eyes…
"T-That's… true but we had changed our ways!"
"Please believe us!!!"
"Y-You damn bitch- I mean- T-That's… Please forgive my life!"
Many of the Vampires were terrible at acting.
"I see how it is…"
In the end, all the Vampires were slaughtered mercilessly as their souls were eaten, while the innocent slaves were taken inside of the split souls' divine realms for rehabilitation.
"GGRRYAAAGGGH!"
"STOP!"
"GGUUAAAGGH…!"
"GREEEGGH…"
After having a good Vampire feast, the split souls converted the entire tower into a golem and saved it inside of their Divine Realms.
After the complete massacre of Damon Holstein, one of the Progenitor Vampires of the Chaotic Faction with the greatest influence within the coastal region of the Continent of Anir's Hands, the other Progenitors got to know this through Familiars they sent as spies.
Someone strong enough to slaughter a Progenitor Vampire so easily was certainly someone… terrifying.
The Progenitor Vampires were left hopeless, some fearing the worst, and they even had begun to consider changing factions before it was too late.
Although they were all prideful, so they ended not changing anything but decided to act "low" for the moment, some even went to sleep for a few thousand years.
However, that didn't work at all, the split souls were on a killing spree because they couldn't bear with all the slaves these groups had and didn't want them to have another day of suffering.
After eating at Damon's soul, they got his memories and learned the places of all the other three Progenitor Vampires and their names and powers.
Gattusa Blossom was a sadistic Vampire Progenitor who liked to torture her subjects the most, she lived in the northwest and governed a small coastal city similar to Seashore but not as advanced named Starfish Town.
Gestrodo Ganodo was a burly and old Vampire Progenitor who seemed to have a knack for making chimeras and zombies, which he created using special Skills granted to him by making a pact with Yuruzgapete, the Demon God of Rotten Corpses. He lived in the southeast in a town named Orange Town.
And lastly, there was the youngest-looking doll-like Vampire Progenitor named Lucia Giovanna, who could use her blood to create living puppets of people, which was acquired through a pact with Kuruzatan, the Demon God of Accursed Puppets. She lives in the east, in a town named Onyx town, a place that was near some salt mines.
After learning this information, the split souls quickly used Death Gate to detect areas with a lot of death attribute, coincidentally, all three of these Progenitors had a lot of death attribute on them, so it was fairly easy to find where they lived ad teleport there through Veronica's ability.
Before becoming Great Deities she was only able to detect very big death attribute masses, but now even not so big ones could be detected, so she had way more spots to teleport into.
"Then let's go on order, we won't rest for tonight, it seems…" they sighed, teleporting away.
Meanwhile, within the church of Bestellen inside of the large Empire of Bestellen, the High Pope that governed the church and the people, and who was the closest to Bestellen received the news.
"I am afraid to report this, High Pope-sama… But… the squad sent to apprehend and defeat the future Demon King and his retainer had been… slain," said a paladin, who got the news from special devices connected to the life signs of the paladins, battle popes, and shadow eyes sent there.
"Gregor, Catrina, Albert, and Loid… had been slain alongside the ten paladins sent with them…"
The High Pope's eyes almost popped out of their sockets!
"W-What?! That's… terrible! This… how strong are they?! Bestellen-sama told me that they had a hard time against Graham, and all their equipment was infused with Heroic Gods!"
