Wolf of the Blood Moon: A Blood Magic-Chapter 97Book 4: : The Start of a New Beginning

Scarlet

I feel my entire body ripping apart as I expend more of my life energy than Ive ever used before empowering Blood Manipulation. And its not just that. I also use up the power from the Demon Moon high in the sky to enhance it, along with the life energy Im draining from the nightshade itself.

All to control every last bit of blood in the area and enhance it, pointing it all straight at the nightshade.

And as my body is ripping apart, wounds opening up all over from my life energy going down below any sort of healthy level making it devour parts of my own body just to survive, I drop my arm, sending every last blade of blood straight at the nightshade.

The nightshade lets out a horrific screech as it fails to dodge the attack, its body too badly crippled for it to do anything now just like my own. So every last blade breaks through its already corroded skin and body armor, spreading plague after plague along with blood of ruin throughout its body.

I feel my body weaken more and more throughout the process, but I continue standing strong despite it.

Its at times like these that Im really glad Pain Diffusion reached its max level.

Still not looking forward to feeling this later though.

I continue draining my own life energy to power the skill as blade after blade after blade pierce into the nightshade, eventually turning it into nothing but a mass of discolored blood. Like a giant ball of corruption, having colors ranging from red, to black, to green, and even yellow all in it.

Rather disgusting if Im being honest. Also probably enough to wipe out an entire city of millions of humans.

At some point blood literally begins to exit through the pores on my body, but I ignore it. Even after I feel a constant flow of blood coming from my mouth, nose, and even eyes, I still push harder.

I wont stop until it is dead.

Who knows how long passes as the orb of blood, all of the blades having just merged into one giant orb, continues to writhe and ripple as if devouring something. And throughout the entire process, I feel my body growing weaker and weaker, eventually leading to me falling down to one knee and supporting myself with a hand on the ground.

Time continues to pass with nothing but the sound of writhing liquid mixed with the occasional screech coming muffled from inside of the orb.

Eventually my vision starts to grow blurry, then the edges become dark. And slowly the darkness begins to spread inwards.

Right when everything finally fades from view, I hear a ding echoing in my head, making a faint smile emerge on my face.

And the last thing I hear is someone shouting my name alongside Tars own voice as he whispers, You did well, Scarlet.

All over the World

Moments Ago

Every last human and demon across both Earth and Tartarus watch on silently as the Princess tears herself apart with her last attack on the Noble demon. When they first saw the massive screen appear, they were shocked. But then their shock was overwhelmed by fear for their Princess and for the humans fear for the human race as a whole.

Because they knew this battle would determine the fate of humanity. Both in the long-run and the short-term.

Eventually, after the battle had extended on for a while, all of the humans and demons watching couldnt feel anything other than surprise. Surprise at how strong the Princess had become. At the realization that she might truly have a chance at winning.

And now, as they watch their Princess tear herself apart, they cant bring themselves to say anything.

Wound after wound continues appearing all over her body before she drops to one knee, barely supporting herself. All the way till the orb of blood collapses and she too with it.

But before the humans and demons can despair at their Princesss inevitable death for losing the duel, a Universal Notification appears in front of them all, shocking them.

Warning! This is a universal notification!

Scarlet Art Asger de Archeron has become the very first being in the universe to defeat a Class V being while at Class IV.

May their achievement ring out throughout the known universe!

Several seconds pass in utter silence before every last human and demon all across the worlds roar out their excitement, making applause echo throughout both worlds. And for once, both the demons and humans are united in their excitement. For once, they share the same thoughts. 𝖋𝔯𝔢𝔢𝖜𝖊𝖇𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖊𝔩.𝖈𝖔𝖒

Meanwhile one demon floating high above the battlefield lets out a sigh, Satan not having expected this outcome when he proposed the challenge. But he at least knows that even if he will have to retreat, and likely wont get the chance to lead the demons against the humans again with The Reapers planned arrival in several years time and the lack of any other Demon Moons any time soon, he will at least not be punished.

And near that demon, all five of the Knights of Humanity show relief of their own, for different reasons. The White Knight lets loose tears as she silently cries. The Red Knight just grins for a few seconds before finally allowing the darkness to take him, making him lose consciousness at last. The Purple Knight just nods her head. The Blue Knight gives the barest hint of a smile for the first time in decades. And the Black Knight gives a short whoop of excitement before falling unconscious right away just like the Red Knight.

Within a castle on Tartarus located high in the air above a vast ocean of blood, the Blood Calamity cant help but sigh as well. A sigh of relief. Then he grins and transforms into his beast form at which point he lets out a loud howl that echoes throughout the Bloody Duchy. And just seconds later, every last blood lycan on Tartarus joins in the howl, even including the Demon King himself, filling all of Tartarus with the howls of the Wolves of Pride.
