Chapter 77: Vampire Slaves



"That was quite a Cleanup," Theos said to himself.

As he surveyed the surroundings, he couldn't help but notice the current scenario in an Apocalyptic state. Houses were destroyed, heads and bodies rolling on the ground, blood everywhere, and a myriad of gruesome and disgusting things.

"We serve the Lord Fallen" shouted in unison thousands of people in front of Theos.

Kneeling, the vampires found themselves there, roaring the name of their new Lord and kneeling before him, all this in order not to die.

'They are people with very little pride and dignity...' thought the black-haired man.

He had come to slaughter the Vampire race to gain strength and get a single push to be a Master rank.

But he had not forgotten his original purpose. 'I came here intending to have an army, but it looks like I got more like slaves hahaha', he chuckled to himself.

"Stay there, there are several guards that will kill you if you try to run away," Theos exclaimed with authority.

With a wave of his hand, the guards surrounded the thousands of kneeling Vampires, making it clear that his words were no lie.

The Vampires merely nodded, they knew their fates were sealed. But there was one Vampire who would not be defeated.

"You will see... You will see the strength of our King! You will be humiliated by him!" a vampire cried in despair.

Hopes were not lost, the other vampires also recovered their spirits a little. But the next moment, they all fell silent, losing all spirits and hope.

*Fall*.

One moment to the next, the vampire who screamed bravely had died in one moment to the next, his head rolling on the bloody ground.

"..."

"..."

No one said anything, they didn't even see how he died in the first place, but it was a cut so clean that it would only be made by a sharp blade, and the only one who has such a thing is Theos himself.

Theos smiled, slowly putting his sword away in his storage ring. "Did you see that? That's what happens to anyone who wants to challenge me!"

His words echoed through every Vampire's mind, this time, losing all hope. Could their King save them? The young man in front of them is a monster among monsters!

Not only that, but they knew very well that the strength of Theos' guards was not weak, they could even keep up with them!

"Sorry, no one tells me orders, not even my parents," saying this, the negative Mana beam was released.

*Boom*

The beam slammed into the guards, who were unable to react to the speed of the attack, let alone survive such lethality.

The bodies of the guards fell lifelessly to the ground, completely charred by the attack, only to be subsequently crushed by thousands of black rocks that fell as a result of the explosion.

"..."

Both Theos and Ezreal said no words, but one of them had a smile on his face, unlike the other, with his veins about to explode from anger.

It was clear who was who.

"You... You have threatened my Territory, my race, and killed dozens of my men, who gives you the right!" he roared.

Ezreal's Mana spread throughout the site, exerting great pressure.

However, Theos did not lag.

Releasing negative Mana, he too expanded his power, countering Ezreal's pressure, the latter with a surprised expression.

He had never seen a young man with such potential and talent before!

'Pitifully, he will die today,' concluded the King, thus drawing his sword made of black stones, as well as his armor that covered his entire body.

Covering the armor with his Mana, the armor changed color to a crimson hue, just like his sword. He had transformed!

The Mana in the surroundings was distorted by the power of the armor and his weapon.

Theos frowned. 'The black stone armor... Despite being extremely fragile, he knows how to get the most out of them through injecting Mana into the right spots, thus getting the stones to evolve into their next form, Crimson Ore.'

Recalling all the information, Theos was no slouch either. He activated his Path, Corrupted Celestial, creating particles of darkness that stuck to his skin like armor, even creating two extremely large wings.

But before the battle began, Theos declared with a smile. "Let me make this clear, I am not a challenger, I don't want to be a King. I want to kill you so that you stop being a King and finally the Vampire race of this territory will prosper."

His words caused a violent reaction from Ezreal.
