Chapter 225: Chapter 224:Now, go get your crown!

The moment reality blinked and corrected itself, ripper, the black haired vampire that had been accompanying Conan, immediately had his eyes shrink into pin holes, hastily putting up whatever defenses he could, the threat he’d felt from those flames having stoked every ounce of danger in his body..

"Fuck... just what did I get myself into this time?.." the young vampire thought grimly, as he finally set sight on the two dreadful figures that had appeared, his face paling considerably at the sight...

He was strong, no doubt, being a pure blooded vampire, and being one from an illustrious family like the twilights, a family with a rich history in breeding monsters, the term weak, could never have been used to describe him.

And yet, the moment his eyes fell on the two creatures that had appeared out of nowhere, bringing literal hell with them, that was exactly how he felt.

Weak!

He, a revered SS-rank genius, felt weak and utterly helpless before the two figures that had just manifested out of nowhere.

Be it the crimson furred titan ape that Currently had a very sadistic and manic smile on its face as it licked the blood of what looked like the torn apart form of a woman he’d just seen perfectly fine an instant ago.

Or the hellish devil, the flaming demon that looked like it crawled out of somewhere nobody should’ve ever allowed it to escape from, its grasp holding carelessly, a lump of coal.

Both figures radiated an aura of dread so absolute, the battle junky couldn’t even get excited about a fight breaking out..

The moment the gaze of that hellish demon passed over him, a heavy existential dread washed over his entire being, his back breaking out in a cold sweat as his figure trembled...

"Ohh thank dracula..." he thought in pure relief as the gaze passed over just as quickly as it had arrived..

He stood up, trying to catch his breath, as he finally, against his better judgment, returned attention to the two horrifying creatures before them, yet what he saw next shook him even more...

DEVOUR!

Both figures spoke simultaneously as a black miasma drifted out of their bodies, engulfing the things within their grasps...

His shock was palpable, so much so that he couldn’t help the exclamation that tore out of him..

"It’s you!!!"

"Fuck me!!"

......

The moment I heard that exclamation, I turned, eyes catching sight of the source.

It was the black haired, red eyed vampire that had been accompanying the red furred ape Malachi had called Conan.

"You...." Before I could speak, the young man turned around, making haste to flee...

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

A woeful wail sounded out as my figure materialized before the fleeing youth, a burning arm grabbing hold of his neck as his body instantly caught fire..

"Where do you think you’re going, little leech?" My voice echoed all around, the crackling flames rising in intensity at my rage...

"UNHAND ME!!!"

Screeeechhhhhhhh

Following his outburst, his body exploded into a swarm of screeching bats, reforming a considerable distance away, into a skinny, tall, bat like humanoid with broad fleshy wings..

The creature turned and with a massive flap of its wings, disappeared into the distance...

"Heh! Escape is futile, little leech." I pointed my finger forward.

"Zero distance strike..."

"Barrage...." The flames crackled and sparked as an assortment of weapons blinked into existence before blinking out just as quickly.

......

"Shit! Shit! Shit! How, why is he that powerful?" The figure of ripper split through the skies as it made its way towards anywhere that wasn’t in the vicinity of that creature.

"Didnt big brother say the suspected inheritor of the ancestor was someone weak? Someone only alive because of the paragon? HOW IN HELL IS THAT THING WEAK, YOU BASTARD!!!!"

"Fuck! I have to get away, I need to tell them, we need to act imme..." his voice cut off as the skies suddenly darkened, looking up, his face paled at the innumerable weapons that had covered the entire skyline..

"Fuck me..."

Fwooosh!!!

Fwooosh!!!!

Fwoooshhh!!!!!

....

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

A harrowing, mournful wail echoed from the distance as explosions resounded nonstop, the shockwaves traveling all the way here...

Oouh oouh oouh ahh ahh ahh "I’ll go get it.. I’ll go get it. I’ll go get it!!! Hahahahahahahaha....." my overexcited clone immediately took a step, vanishing from the spot, only to reappear mere moments later, only this time, it wasn’t alone.

In its grasp, was a crisp, perfectly done, humanoid figure of coal that was writhing continuously, trying to make itself whole..

Ahhh ahhh ahhh "what a tenacious leech... hahahahahaha.... Hellish soulscape.." the excited clone laughed, before its claws caught on fire

ARRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

The writhing lump of coal wailed in harrowing agony as the monkey placed its hold on the fleshy wings of the creature, a savage grin splitting its face before..

Kah!

It pulled.

Kah!

Slowly.

Kah!

Torturously.

Snap!

The sounds of bones breaking, tendons snapping and muscles tearing echoed loudly in the silent plains, their only companion being the sounds of crackling flames...

The ape continued its violent display until eventually,

RIIIIIIPPPPPPPP!!!!!!

It tore the blackened creature into two jagged pieces of flesh, organs and entrails spilling out as, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" It laughed in manic glee...

"Fun! That was fun! Hahahahahaha.. next time. More fun. Next time. More fun. Ooouh ooouh ahhh ahh Ahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!"

Poof!!!

And with one last maniacal laughter, the clone vanished, the two pieces of well, things, falling with a dull thud that seemed somehow louder than thunder.

The silence that had fallen upon the space suddenly got heavier as I took a step.

Thud!

Then another.

Thud!

And another.

Thud!

I moved, one flaming step at a time as I approached the STILL writhing pieces of flesh.

The vampire showing its tenacity.

Unfortunately, it didn’t matter, as I pointed a burning finger forward, and then,

Devour!

A pitch black as night flame condensed at the top of my finger, before going on to surround the entire body of the writhin flesh pieces..

<<DING!>>

<<DEVOURING SUCCESSFUL...>>

Just like all the notifications I’d been getting till now, I pushed this one aside too, as finally, the silence returned.

Crackle... Crackle...

I could feel the gazes of everyone on my figure, waiting.

Yet my own gaze was trained solely on one figure...

"Monkey!" My harrowing voice finally broke the silence..

"Hmm!" Malachi grunted softly. His red eyes shining in anticipation...

"I have done as I said.."

slowly, the flames died out, my form returning to normal, as a pair of black silk pants appeared on my lower half..

"I have cleared the rabble, and removed the distractions.."

My wings sprouted as I flapped them gently, taking to the skies, Leo lifting the still unconscious form of Sorin with us...

"I have set the stage." My voice sounded out once more as I finally stopped at a high enough altitude..

"Now, go get your crown."

Dum... Dum... Dum...

The monkey beat his chest furiously in anticipation as he gave one loud, domineering...

ROOOOOOOOOOOARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!

The final battle for the crown was about to begin....
