Wolf of the Blood Moon: A Blood Magic-Chapter 17Book 6:

Scarlet

Yep. Very annoying.

Somehow I find myself standing at the edge of a balcony with my clawed finger just occasionally tapping on the railing of the balcony looking out over a massive plaza within the castle. A castle belonging to the guy who was, in fact, a king. The ruler of this entire planet in fact.

From what I can tell, he’s only about as strong as a Class III or Class IV Guardian. Somewhere on the edge of the two, at the end of Class III.

So weak.

But impressive that he got this strong without a System.

He’s also having a statue built for me in the plaza as we speak, and wouldn’t hear a word of denial about it.

So… yeah.

“That’s intriguing…” the pixie queen – ruler of the pixies and the contracted partner of the king of this world – mutters while standing on the railing next to me. “So you came here from your world to stop the Red Death from coming here?”

Red Death?

“What do you mean by that?” I ask with a frown. “By Red Death.”

She looks confused for a second before answering, “The substance of which you have locked within your body. Of which you call ‘Red Plague’.”

Oh. So I guess these pixies call it something else.

Interesting.

I went ahead and told my story to the pixie out of boredom since there’s literally nothing else to do here while I wait for the stupid fae king to come bring me to the next world. But I didn’t expect for these pixies to have so much knowledge on the universe, just like the fae.

And even moreso didn’t expect them to have different terms for things.

Guess they really are just different types of spirits from different realities.

“In that case, yes, that’s why I came here,” I tell her with a shrug while glaring at the statue of me they’re putting up. One with me wearing some sort of dress-armor instead of the basic clothes I’m wearing now. As if my current outfit didn’t look cool or stylish enough. Although the other statues they’re putting up around the world – yes, there’s more, unfortunately – have me dressed as I am now. With my jacked and regular clothes. Albeit made of blood. “Just waiting for that old man to pick me up and bring me to the next world to get my fill of void creatures.”

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

“Very well,” the pixie queen says. “Then would you like me to assist you with that goal?”

I blink for a moment before turning to look at the pixie queen.

“Huh?” I mutter, surprised by her words. And confused as well.

“Pardon me, Goddess Wolf of Blood, but I believe this King of the Fae you speak of most likely intended for you to be sent on your way by the spirit rulers of which you save,” the pixie queen continues, surprising me even more. “However, he must have been taxed if he did not explain this to you.”

Or he was just too lazy. Or wanted to mess with me somehow. Or held a grudge.

I glance upwards slightly as my mind goes back to our time in the Fae Ascension Tournament. And all of the walls I broke through with my Red Plague.

Then I lower my head again and give a firm nod.

Probably that last one.

I don’t regret a thing.

“Then would you do the honors?” I ask the pixie queen next to me with my head tilted ever so slightly.

“With pleasure, Savior Goddess,” she says with a bow. “May you go with good tidings and luck on your way to save the universe from the Great One.”

Huh. Another different term for-

I find myself teleporting out of nowhere to reappear in the air over another world without warning.

-something…

I glance upwards before blankly staring at the massive, world-sized monsters approaching this significantly more massive world beneath me. To the point that these monsters – clearly Class V void creatures – are as big as the moons surrounding the world.

“Uh…” I mutter while staring at them. “You fellas are big…”

The creatures look like massive alien-like bugs, with tentacles coming out of their backs and scythe-like limbs similar to praying mantis in front of them. Multiple limbs. Meanwhile it’s body is like a long and narrow pyramid downwards, going straight to another blade on the end. And its mouth is large enough to eat multiple cities whole, with a head that is rather long in terms of its forehead.

Oh, and they’re a grayish green in color.

Guess that pixie queen sent me to a world being attacked by a couple void heralds. Unexpected, but not unwelcome.

Also, how was she able to teleport me? And she implied that all the rulers of the spirits can teleport people? So it’s not just the Fae King?

Interesting. But not really something I can pay much attention to right now.

Not with these big fellas making their way over here with a massive swarm of void creatures. A swarm so large that I can practically see nothing more than an endless wave of tentacles, bugs, and scales.

A rather disturbing sight.

I glance back at the world to find it to actually be even more advanced than Earth in terms of technology. Which I wasn’t expecting.

It also looks like a lot of people are pointing cameras at the air. Or rather, at me. Not at the void invasion, but at me.

Guess those cameras have a rather long range?

And I can hear more whispers of a goddess… just peachy…

Actually, my eyes narrow as I spot some spaceships in the air. Not very advanced ones based on sci-fi I’ve seen at least, but good enough to get into space and have weapons on them.

Doubt they’d last long traveling away from the planet though.

Unexpected. But I have business to attend to.

And at this point I don’t really care about attention. I already have a bunch of statues on that other world whose name I actually never got.

What’s some media presence here gonna do to me? 𝑓𝘳ℯℯ𝔀ℯ𝓫𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓵.𝘤𝘰𝓶

I turn around and refocus on the void invasion.

Time to fight.
