49 The cost of Humanity pt 2

Draig was asleep in his soulscape, looking over him was a familiar figure. It was another Draig however the aura around this person was vicious and callous. An air of supremacy reeked from him.

"Don't worry dear brother, I will keep us safe until you can wake up" said the lookalike while he picked Draig up and placed in onto a sort of bed that appeared from nothing.

"All these mortals are causing us so much trouble, they are messing with your true awakening but I won't let them continue to burden you. Big brother will pave the path for you, you just need to accept the inheritance and it will be all better." continued the lookalike as he ruffled Draig's hair as if he was truly a caring older sibling.

Casting a glance towards the other Draig that had represented humanity with a sneer, walking over he kicked him in the side.

"You pathetic little urchin, you kept me locked in here for so long. I told you that he would choose the path of power but you and your pathetic sympathy held us all back." said the lookalike with disdain.

"How long are you going to lay there, you know he is asleep at the moment." stated the lookalike.

"I didn't think he would be so decisive, brother surely you understand this path will only lead to us being forsaken. We can't take on the world by ourselves" stated Draig's humanity as he stood up gripping the side of his head giving it a firm twist producing a sickening snap.

"You underestimate our precious little brother, I will take him to the apex. Together he and I will bathe these lesser being's in blood and bring them to worship and fear us. The first stage is clearing away those that chain him to this Plane starting with that despicable Mage." answered Draig's System

"Brother please think this through clearly, we can't just eliminate all who stand before us. Even you cant battle those higher powers by yourself. Do you think he can do something you are incapable of" demanded Draig's humanity with a loathing tone.

"He will be greater than any that have come before him, he just needs time to become the being I know he can." responded Draig's System with confidence.

"Then what happened to your previous hosts, you forget I know what you know. The world may have forgotten about the last appearance of the Monster Systems but I know very well what happened. You caused the other Plane's to appear, then you caused the ancient Disasters. Do you really wish to cause another catastrophe." roared Draig's humanity in anger.

"Silence, don't speak of things you don't understand. I do what I have for the benefit of my host, you and your kind would only see him become a minor being. I aim for something better, something beyond what his destiny would have been. Do you think it is a coincidence that the other monster System's appeared at this time." countered Draig's System

Draig's humanity paled slightly.

"Y-you don't mean..." stuttered Draig's humanity.

"I called them, we have always collaborated. When I appear they will surely follow, there is more at work than you believe. Let me share a secret that I kept from you. This Plane is coming to an end, do you want to know why." stated Draig's system calmly with a patronizing tone.

"Explain yourself." answered Draig's humanity.

"The world isn't meant to be separated into four Planes, they were originally one. What do you think would happen if a world was split into four ways. Don't bother speaking nonsense I will tell you, that world would die. I have attempted to correct this on several occasions and I am sure that if I fail this time then I doubt I will have another opportunity" elaborated Draig's system.

"Who are you really, you are more than just a system. You know too much and contain too much sentience." demanded Draig's humanity solemnly

"I was the first, the originator of all the vampires. My mother had been assaulted by a demonic god, the being that was born was I. I am the beginning and if I so wish it, I will be the end. I am the King of Blood, I am the Lord of the Night, I am Dracule." Roared Dracule introducing himself for the first time in eons.

Draig's humanity paled completely.

"Your lying." insisted Draig's humanity.

"Why do I need to lie to you, you know my words are true but then again humans have always denied the truth when it is revealed." stated Dracule as he returned to Draig's side watching him closely as if waiting for some kind of change.

"If what you say is true then I can not let you continue, you were a blight on all living things." stated Draig's humanity swishing his hand and Draig was swept behind a barrier out of Dracule's reach.

"You dare, with your pathetic amount of capabilities you think you can stop me." demanded Dracule as his eyes glowed a deadly crimson.

"Your words may have been true if you hadn't appeared but you forget about the use of Blood script. Tell how many warriors have had their life essence consumed, how many abilities have been incorporated and catalogued." laughed Draig's humanity as a godly power seemed to erupt from him.

Dracule seeing this became serious as his own aura began to soar, armor began to congeal similar to what he had done to Draig in the real world.

"You are nothing but a parasite leeching off of us for your own purpose. I will show that you cannot do as you please any longer." stated Draig's humanity as different elements and sub elements began to circle him as different boosts took effect. He looked as if he was a warrior sent from the heaven's.

Dracule reached his hand to the side and a black scythe releasing a miasma came into being.

These two extreme forces didn't move as they sized up the other looking for any possible opening.

While this was happening behind the barrier Draig began to stir in response to the powers at play in his soulscape.
