Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn as a Vampire Dragon with a System-Chapter 384: Ambush!
The power that the world had to detect the Forbidden One's Ego was natural of a planet. Planets with a World Core would attain consciousness and be able to spread their senses across the rest of their bodies through their World Source Energy, through this energy, they were able to see what was happening within their bodies. However, it was usually quite hard for them to actually be able to accomplish much aside from that, and they often had a lot of difficulties trying to do things within their planets without ending up in a catastrophic accident that might end up killing a lot of life.
For example, if she wanted, she could get rid of those factories atop her body and all, but she would have to cause enormous tremors to do such a thing, which would end up killing many innocent lives, and might cause irreversible changes in the entire environment that would only worsen the situation rather than make it any better.
This is why she had to get the Saints as those that would help her cleanse the world from this evil, it was easier for her to grant a bit of her power to certain people and ask for their help than do it herself, as it might cause too much damage for it to be anything but inconvenient.
And as of now, she was already growing rather concerned about the future ahead and what she should do, but this is where Chaos showed up, someone capable of truly helping her, and now that he was finally moving out, she quickly showed him where exactly this entity was…
Interestingly enough, there was a faraway temple sealing several fragments of the forbidden one, and this amalgamation was capable of sensing his fragments, and immediately began moving to the direction where they might be. It took him a few days of traveling across the sea, as he wasn't able to move at such as speed like Chaos and the others could be due to being worn down after his fight with him and Aruliel, but at long last, he reached the temple amidst the frozen lands.
The south pole of the planet was completely frozen solid and the continent was covered in a perpetual coverture of hard ice and snow, the temple in here that sealed the fragments had been placed in here thousands of years ago, and has been covered in snow since then. However, the Fragment of the Forbidden One's Ego was capable of searching for his fragments anywhere, and he followed his trails and finally reached this area where a large piece of himself was sealed.
"At long last…" He sighed in relief.
He began walking across the snow as he made his way into the temple, completely buried in hard ice and snow, it was barely visible and only a bit of its ceiling. A smile surged in the bug-like face of the Forbidden One's Ego, as he began to imagine the power, he could attain by devouring this fragment.
The environment was rather colder than usual, there was a strong snowstorm, and the winds were very strong as well, the entire landscape of this frozen continent was just all white snow, the Forbidden One's Ego was very vulnerable on his current form, and felt the cold very strongly, nonetheless, one of his skeletal hands suddenly shaped itself as a large black spear of metallic-like luster, and quickly pierced through the entire temple's ceiling.
BOOOOMMM!!!
Enormous pieces of rubbles exploded everywhere, spreading through the entire place, and falling like giant and heavy meteors over the ground, the Forbidden One looked down for a few seconds and then jumped down into the darkness.
CLAASH!
His body hit the rocky floor as he felt the strong presence of his own body parts nearby… Very nearby! The presence was so strong it resembled a black flame blazing with fiery flames that were slowly embracing his entire body, they wanted him closer, they wanted him to get as close as possible! His body parts were overflowing with happiness as the Forbidden One's Ego was finally here to fuse back with them…!
"Hahaha… It has been a long time, but at long last, we met once more, my body parts…" He said, as he extended his bug-like claws towards the pedestal which had several fragments sealed within chains made of light, his darkness seeped into these chains of light and began to slowly infect them with his miasma, breaking them apart one by one, and generating a chain reaction that made the fragments move on their own, making the pedestal tremble as amorphous body pieces started to surge from the pedestal!
"Yes…! Yes!" He laughed.
He slowly approached his hand as he…!
Suddenly felt an enormous presence akin to that one aberration he once fought inside the frog's stomach!
"W-What?!"
He looked desperately upwards as he saw two figures atop the sky, it was Chaos and… a woman he had not seen before but that contained a type of essence similar to him, she was also quite eldritch in origins, and seemed to be a creation of ancient Outer Gods, a Shoggoth!
"Y-You…?! And that's… a Shoggoth?!" He asked in exasperation, as he desperately attempted to grab the fragments before it were too late.
However!
"Primordial Cosmic Chaos."
The dry voice of Chaos was devoid of any emotions as an enormous quantity of Primordial Chaos emerged from the depths of his Soul and merged with the Cosmic Energy, generating a sphere of cosmic chaos that gathered into a spiral of darkness in less than a split second above the Forbidden One's Ego! The spiraling chaos fell over the Forbidden One's Ego's face and exploded, distorting space, and completely disintegrating everything within its vicinity!
"Uuuaaggggh…!"
BOOOOOOMMM…!
The enormous explosion spread darkness and cosmic energies converged together everywhere, crushing anything that they could find and completely obliterating it all!
The enormous explosion consumed the ice and the snow surrounding the entire place, as a gigantic crater leading to the continental crust showed up, and nothing was left behind…
However… Chaos detected that this entity was not dead yet.
CRAAASH!
From the depths of the continental crust, a massive amount of darkness exploded and moved upwards, as several grotesque tentacles and insect-like arms emerged one after the other…!
"That was very close…!" He roared. "You almost killed me there! Gahahaha!"
