Book 5: Chapter 55: Father and Daughter

Within the Stadium

Arkaz feels nothing but pride as he ignores his fae partners rambling what Oberon calls commentating and watches his son and granddaughter fight it out. The both of them showing off the pride of the royal family.

Ever since he first met her, hes known that she would be great. Even if he put aside the prophecy nonsense that his son and that human he took were following.

And just from watching them, he knows that his granddaughter wont take too long to catch up with him.

But he also understands that itll be harder for her to level up the higher her level reaches, even with her Red Plague. Especially since void creatures dont have life force, so shes only devouring their realities without gaining any life force from them to feed her own.

A process that slows down her leveling speed.

If hes being perfectly honest, when he first saw Scarlet after she became the Warden of the Red Plague, he almost had a heart attack. Metaphorically, since thats physically impossible for him.

In just a single instant, he understood everything that was different about her body.The initial posting of this chapter occurred via Ñøv€l-B!n.

Most other people would never understand the exact difference, and Arkaz is pretty sure even she doesnt realize it. But she is not human or blood lycan anymore. Not entirely at least.

If he had to guess, shes probably around 0.01% human, 29.99% blood lycan, and 70% Red Plague now. A large amalgamation of pure corruption in the form of a blood lycan and human hybrid.

And its not just that. He can tell just from her entering his blood domain that she will never age, even if she doesnt kill things and receive their life force.

As if on cue, Leonidas jumps backwards with a grin on his face and lets out a roar while using Blood Dominion to directly take control of every demon and human around them of level 1700 or above that have ranged attacks. Likely because the weaker ones wouldnt be able to so much as scratch Scarlet.

He also doesnt manage to control the Knights or Demon Lords.

Then he forces each and every one of them to start launching barrages of ranged attacks on Scarlet, who simply narrows her eyes in response.

So thats how you wanna play it? she asks, to which her father just grins.

Without hesitation, his granddaughter spreads both of her arms out and activates multiple skills at once. The first one being obvious as wounds begin opening up all over every last demon and human attacking her, making them all fall to the ground in surprise.

But thats not all she does as lines of red energy begin to connect her to every last demon and human in the area, regardless of if theyre attacking her or not. And Arkaz can immediately tell what happens due to those red lines.

The stats of each and every being in the competition except his granddaughters cousin, who she didnt target, begin dropping by about five percent. Meanwhile Scarlets stats start climbing, and life energy begins rushing through the red lines along with mana and any other form of energy including mental power, qi, and even soul power. All rushing to fill her as more and more wounds open up on their bodies from his granddaughters healing reversal skill.

Even Leonidas flinches when he feels his stats dropping by just a single percent, with just as many wounds opening on his body as the others. Wounds that all heal instantly the moment they appear.

Looks like things are starting to get a little more serious! King Oberon declares, Arkaz finding the mans enjoyment of this battle practically flooding his mind through their bond.

But Arkaz cant blame him, since battles on this scale arent commonly seen. Or almost ever seen.

So he just continues watching, feeling more and more excited to see just how far his granddaughter has come.
