Chapter 269 The Showdown [Part 1]



After killing all the vampires, ethereal specks of particles rise in the air before disappearing. Roth had just single-handedly killed two families.

"How many participants remaining?" Roth asks as he turns around, facing four vampires standing in the far distance behind him while he did his onslaught.

Hearing his words, the vampires dash towards him in a flash.

"8-80 participants remaining," One of the Vampires holding a round gadget says, weary of Roth's presence.

Seeing them act like this, Roth lets out a sigh.

"You guys should stop acting like this. This is just a game, we were meant to have fun. I wouldn't kill my fellow vampire like that in the real world," Roth says with a smile, tapping the vampire's shoulder.

'Game my ass. We can still feel the sensation of pain inside this game. That expression...' The vampire thinks inwardly, gritting his teeth.

Suddenly, he spots a red dot in the sky.

"Team leader, something is approaching us. It looks like vampire aura. But he's wasting it," The vampire informs Roth.

Hearing the vampire's words, Roth looks up and instantly recognizes the incoming threat.

"He's finally coming huh...." Roth mutters, clenching his fist while adrenaline courses through his body.

"You guys shouldn't interfere in my battle or else, I'll kill you all myself. Now scram!" Roth bellows, his eyes glowing red, dismissing his teammates. In an instant, the teammates soar into the air and start flying away from the area.

_____________________________________

Right now, I am soaring through the air, my senses keen and focused, as I search for Roth. Ever since I discovered his secret journey to the vampire planet, undertaken without informing me, I have resolved to confront him and demonstrate the true extent of my power.

As I glide effortlessly through the sky, my eyes scouring the land below, a commotion catches my attention. People are engaged in a fierce battle, their bodies intertwined in a deadly dance. And amidst the chaos, I spot him—Roth. A surge of anticipation courses through my veins, and I pause my momentum, hovering above the ground to observe the unfolding scene.

Roth, his figure cloaked in an aura of malevolence, moves with a relentless and ruthless grace. Each strike he delivers carries a lethal precision, leaving his adversaries defenseless and vulnerable. The sight is both mesmerizing and horrifying, an intricate ballet of violence and power. With a chilling calmness, he employs whatever means necessary to eliminate his foes.

I watch as Roth's hand snatches a nearby stone from the ground, his grip firm and resolute. With a swift and merciless swing, he brings the stone crashing down upon an opponent's head. The sickening thud echoes through the air, amplifying the raw brutality of the act. Blood splatters, and the defeated figure crumples to the ground, lifeless.

My gaze remains fixed on Roth, my mind whirling with admiration. His willingness to wield such savagery strikes a dissonant chord within me. Yet, as his adversaries fall one by one, I cannot help but marvel at the raw power emanating from him. I think you should take a look at

A calculating smile tugs at the corners of my lips as a plan begins to form in my mind. I must tap into reserves of power that lie dormant within me, waiting to be unleashed. This battle is not merely about vanquishing an opponent; it is about proving that my own will eclipses his.

With renewed purpose, I resume my flight, descending gracefully toward the battleground. My arrival does not go unnoticed, and the combatants pause, their attention shifting toward me.

Roth's eyes meet mine, a flicker of recognition sparking within them. I can sense the surprise and curiosity mingling with the primal instinct of a predator sizing up its competition. For a moment, a palpable tension hangs in the air, the anticipation of an imminent showdown crackling between us.

In the next moment, I fly down below and land gracefully in front of Roth. The ground trembles slightly beneath my feet as I touch down, my celestial energy dispersing into the air. The vibrant hues of my aura fade away, revealing my true form.

"Roth, when do you plan to stop acting childish?" I ask, my voice tinged with a hint of exasperation. I shake my head, disappointed by his reckless behavior.

"Bwhahahahaha!" Roth bursts into laughter, his confidence evident in his demeanor. "I don't care about what you say. I just want to defeat you. I have trained endlessly, honing my skills. I am even confident that I can take a warlock stage vampire head-on. That's why we are now equals," he boasts, flexing his toned bicep as if to prove his point.

I regard Roth with a mixture of concern and frustration. He had always been headstrong, but I could sense that something was amiss. His actions seemed forced, as if he were being manipulated by an external force.

"I know someone is probably telling you to do all this," I say, my voice softer now, laced with empathy. "If I agree to fight you with my full power, will you tell me everything?" I pull off my armor and remove my under shirt, leaving only a pair of pants on. The cool breeze brushes against my bare skin as I stand before him, vulnerable yet resolute.

Roth's eyes widen in surprise, momentarily taken aback by my offer. His laughter subsides, replaced by a contemplative expression. He gazes at me intently, searching for sincerity in my eyes. After a moment of silence, he nods slowly.

"Fine," he says, his voice quieter now, stripped of its bravado. "If you fight me at your full power, I will tell you everything."

A sense of relief washes over me. I knew that Roth had his reasons for acting this way, and now I had the opportunity to uncover the truth. With a focused gaze, I draw upon the depths of my power, tapping into the celestial energy that courses through my veins. Radiant tendrils of light swirl around me, infusing the atmosphere with a sense of awe.

As the energy envelops me, I feel a surge of strength and determination. I can sense Roth's apprehension, his realization that he may have underestimated the true extent of my abilities.

Roth also readies himself, his muscles tensing as his calves bulge, emanating raw power. Simultaneously, a burst of aura erupts from his body, swirling around him like a tempestuous storm.
