Chapter 801: A Legend in the Making. 6
The conclusion Erebus reached was the same as Nocturnus': Void was the answer. Upon realizing this, the young Primordial God wasted no time and began using his Void Power more actively.
'Using a massive amount of Power isn't efficient; I need to concentrate this Power so it can overcome his natural armor of Negative Energy,' Nocturnus thought.
Meanwhile, Tartarus engaged in close combat with Victor once again, forcing him to play his game. During their clash, Nocturnus once more sealed Victor's speed using his Void Power.
[Father, if we keep this up, he will tire out, but we don't know how long it will take. We need to finish him.] Nocturnus communicated mentally.
[I know, that's why I'm waiting for the right moment.] Erebus replied.
After exchanging words, Erebus and Nocturnus returned to the battle. Erebus utilized his darkness to create a Gravitational Field, as one of his Lesser Divinities was associated with the Space where Darkness lingers.
At that moment, the gravity around Victor exceeded 1000 times that of Earth.
"Grrr..." Victor growled as his Dragon-like features became more prominent. Both father and son were becoming irritating!
A red Power focused in Victor's hand as he punched toward Erebus.
The God of Darkness simply vanished from the attack area and reappeared elsewhere.
During that time, Victor broke free from the Gravitational Field and used his speed to approach Erebus.
Even though his speed was sealed by Nocturnus, it didn't mean his base speed was low.
Erebus widened his eyes as he sensed the killing intent emanating from Victor. The fist coming toward him seemed much larger than it appeared.
"Father!" Nocturnus created a Void barrier in front of Erebus.
However, the barrier was completely destroyed by Victor's fist.
As Victor's punch was about to explode Erebus' head, Tartarus appeared by his side and held his fist, stopping it just centimeters from Tartarus' face.
With only the wind's pressure, Victor's punch sent Erebus flying, leaving cuts on his face, but his head remained intact.
Erebus touched his heart when, for the first time in his existence, he felt death so close.
"Damn... DAMN!" He wouldn't forgive this shame.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm He was Erebus, The Primordial God of Olympus. He is DARKNESS itself!
An explosion of Dark Power erupted from Erebus' body, and he transformed into Pure Darkness.
"Annoying Mortal." Merging his hands together in front of Victor, Erebus unleashed all his Power without caring about Olympus.
"Tartarus, leave!" Nocturnus shouted.
And Tartarus immediately obeyed, stepping back as he looked at Victor.
A Gravitational Field fell upon Victor's body, causing him to collapse to the ground.
"Grrr..." Victor gritted his teeth, covering his body with the Power of Negativity and leaping in another direction.
For a moment, the Gravitational Field disappeared, but it quickly returned even stronger than before.
"Ugh." Victor felt every bone in his body breaking, but he didn't care; his regeneration was already at work.
The Power unleashed by Erebus made all of Olympus tremble; he truly didn't care about anything now, as the fear of death erased any remnants of self-control.
"Kill him," Erebus ordered his son.
Nocturnus nodded, creating a spear made of Void Power.
He threw the spear in Victor's direction, and the spear simply 'appeared' in front of him.
Due to the insane gravity, Victor could only raise his hand to protect the vital part of his body, and thus, the first real damage was inflicted on him.
Half of his left side was completely destroyed by the void.
[Victor!]
"Don't stop. Kill him!" Erebus ordered even more fervently as he increased the Gravity hundreds of times, causing Victor to fall to the ground.
"Grr..." Victor's Draconic features began to cover his humanoid body completely, and the damage caused by Nocturnus began to heal. By the time Nocturnus was preparing to gather Energy again, Victor's body had already recovered.
Truly an insane regeneration.
Even in this situation, his body was fighting against gravity. While Erebus pulled him down, Victor used his entire body to stand up.
This force of attraction and repulsion was causing critical havoc on Mount Olympus as a whole. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Erebus was using all the available gravity on Mount Olympus to hold Victor down.
Nocturnus threw another spear, this time aiming for Victor's head, but his hand appeared once again in front of his face. This time, his hands disappeared, but his head remained intact.
Nocturnus threw another spear, and this time, Victor's legs and abdomen were hit.
"Cough." Victor spat blood on the ground.
Seeing her Husband in such a state, Roxanne went mad.
[Bastards!] Roxanne roared, the Inner World of Victor trembled, and Roxanne's Energy production went into overdrive.
An even more vivid and chaotic red aura covered Victor's body, helping to counteract the effects of gravity.
"Don't stop, Nocturnus!" Erebus increased the gravity several hundred times, causing the entire area to collapse.
"I know! This damn monster!" Nocturnus spoke, then he began to throw even more Power at Victor.
Legs, arms, abdomen, everything disappeared and regenerated right away, but no critical point was hit. The Demon King knew very well how to protect these vital points.
[Partner, summon me! What are you waiting for! Let me help kill these Gods!]
"NO. Most important… Family." Unconsciously he responded by speaking out loud as he tried to get up.
Victor simply couldn't risk anyone attacking his Family while he was here. Therefore Zaladrac was needed in Nightingale.
[Partner...]
Nocturnus' attacks didn't stop. He was throwing everything at Victor, and in a moment, all that was left was just Victor's heart, a violet heart that pulsated with Negative Energy, the Core of Victor's existence, The Heart of a Dragon.
Nocturnus saw this chance and threw the spear at Victor's heart, but the spear disappeared before he even got close. The Negativity produced by his heart served as his own shield, and he needed a more concentrated attack.
And that's what he did, but the moment he started to focus on his attack, something happened... Victor's body was regenerated again. This time he was just flesh and bones.
Victor's eyes flashed toward Nocturnus, and it was at that moment that the younger God realized he was dealing with a cornered Dragon. Everyone knew that when an animal was cornered, it became even more volatile, and Victor's eyes reminded him of an animal now.
They needed to kill him here and now!
Nocturnus threw the Void Spear concentrated on Victor's entire body, and again his entire body disappeared, leaving only his beating heart.
"Fuck, Fuck, fuck, WHY DOESN'T HE DIE!?"
Victor's body was rebuilt again.
Blood fell from his mouth, tears of blood fell from his eyes, his heart ached, his body ached, but that was nothing; he'd suffered worse tortures.
"Tartaros, use your fire!"
"I can't!"
"Why!?" Erebus looked at Tartarus, seeing the man confronting his ex-wife.
"Irritating." Before Nocturnus could say anything to Victor, he felt danger coming from his left. Quickly, he created a Void Barrier beside him, and the Spear that was about to pierce his head halted.
"Three Gods engaging a Mortal... Doesn't seem fair, does it?" The woman's cold eyes sent shivers down Nocturnus' spine.
It was official; Scathach was completely irritated. It would be an understatement to measure the level of her irritation at this moment.
The woman took the Spear and pulled it from the invisible wall.
This action completely shocked Nocturnus; he couldn't understand how she did it.
Tartarus looked at this and disappeared from in front of Nyx, appearing beside Scathach, attempting to punch her.
Scathach simply evaded the attack and assumed a Martial Arts stance, her eyes never leaving Nocturnus.
Nocturnus felt a very bad feeling as if something had happened to him.
And he wasn't wrong. The moment Scathach assumed her stance, she released all her Martial Arts upon Nocturnus in the form of a simple strike... Martial Arts at the level of Grandmaster where the very Martial Arts themselves could sever a Concept.
"Nocturnus, no!!" Erebus released his control over gravity for a moment and pulled his son away from that place.
Nocturnus blinked, and as he did so, he found himself in another place. He realized that his father had helped him, but that was not important compared to the sight in front of him.
All he saw was a trail of insane destruction in a straight line, and everything in that line was completely erased from existence.
'This is dangerous... That woman is dangerous…' He almost died right there. She might not be as powerful or resistant as The Demon King, but her attack was on the same level of danger as his.
When Erebus looked at Victor standing again, with his broken body regenerating before his eyes, fear shone in his eyes, and he immediately increased the force of gravity.
He expected Victor to fall to his knees, but this time, it was different. He didn't fall; he stood.
Even though his legs were being destroyed, he remained standing, looking up at Erebus.
Erebus' fear grew even more when he saw something 'unknown' happening before him. He couldn't quantify the level of terror he was feeling now; he had never seen anything like this before!
Even broken, even using all his Power, Victor was enduring. His regeneration was becoming stronger, and he was adapting. Not only that, but the newly formed skin on him was different from before; if previously Victor's Dragon Scales covered his skin, now Victor's own skin was Dragon Scales.
Dealing with an attack that destroyed his body, the Dragon's Heart adapted and created an even stronger body to withstand it.
It wasn't just the Dragon's Heart; that trace of Humanity that was once The Demon King also began to act. After all, before becoming a Progenitor or even a Demon King, he was a Human.
And if there was something undeniable, it was that... Humans were Beings that adapted the most over the years.
No wonder the Progenitor of Humans, Adam, had the ability to adapt.
A fraction of that Power was now being seen before Erebus. Driven by Roxanne's Negative Power and the existence of the Dragon within him, Victor was adapting, evolving, and growing stronger.
"An anomaly...! Your existence should not have been allowed to come into being!"
"Deal with this woman quickly and eliminate The Demon King!"
"I know!" Nocturnus spoke.
Scathach did not stop at that attack, and the next moment, she used the Spear's staff and attacked Tartarus, sending him flying.
She retrieved her Spear, and at that moment, the starry night appeared beside Erebus.
"N-Nyx."
"You will pay for your betrayal, Erebus." Nyx grabbed Erebus by the head and forcibly dragged him away, effectively releasing all the gravity from Victor's body and setting him free.
His Draconic violet eyes glowed, and he looked up at the sky, letting out a deafening roar.
ROOOOOOOAR!
Victor's Dragon features began to blend with his Progenitor form, causing his body to acquire the same dark red hue, but this time, shades of violet were also visible.
In Victor's inner world, Roxanne looked at the sky. Above the shadow of Victor, protecting his inner world, a Dragon even larger than Victor's shadow began to form.
Roxanne narrowed her eyes, looking at the Soul of the Dragon sleeping at a distance, realizing that it wasn't Zaladrac's soul.
"His Soul is changing? No, it's evolving."
Victor Alucard... the one who took the name of Dracula and reversed it to symbolize that he would be different from his predecessor, was truly living up to his predecessor's name; he was ascending as a Dragon... a True Dragon.
"How ironic. The Gods pressed him so much that they indirectly helped him become stronger..."
...
In Nightingale.
"Comrade, I cannot help you personally, but I can offer you my unwavering support..." Zaladrac smiled as she heard Victor's roar.
"Only you are worthy of being my comrade, and I'm sure my ancestor Zeovnur will accept you... Even if he doesn't, I will force him to accept you."
Jeanne appeared in front of Zaladrac.
"We need to talk."
Zaladrac narrowed her eyes at Jeanne, irritation growing within her, but it immediately disappeared as she remembered Victor's words.
"Speak."
"Tell me in detail what is going on." Jeanne got straight to the point.
Zaladrac nodded and began explaining the events since Victor arrived in The Underworld.
...
After emerging from the hole, Victor scanned the surroundings with his Dragon Eyes, and his vision turned red when he saw Nocturnus preparing to strike Scathach with his Void Power.
Scathach noticed Nocturnus's approach, but she was busy dealing with Tartarus and his irritating Teleportation Technique. With her Martial Arts and the spear in her hand, she only needed one attack to deal a fatal blow to the two Gods, and they knew it, which made them slippery as eels.
Victor's eyes turned even redder when he saw a foreign Primordial God appearing out of nowhere, attempting to stab Scathach from behind.
At that moment, his anger became so great that he unconsciously spoke in the Draconian Language, with a faint golden Power emanating from his body.
"Stop."
Influenced by his word, everything froze... The battle, the Primordial Gods, even Olympus itself.
Victor didn't care. He knew it was temporary. The Primordial Gods were already beginning to fight against the effects of his word, and he had only seconds, but seconds were enough.
Even clearer red Lightning covered his body, and he disappeared, leaving a trail of destruction behind.
Victor grabbed Scathach and pulled her away from the three Gods. He turned around, glaring at them with hatred. He opened his mouth, showing his sharp teeth.
Soon, Violet Fire, Red Energy, Red Lightning, Blood, and Water appeared. Then something strange happened—the Energy of the stopped Time began to reverse towards Victor. The scattered Energy around him concentrated on the elements in front of him, stabilizing everything by force. Soon, the sphere in front of him began to spin at high speed.
Time was saturating the attack for the future...
At the same time, things were happening inside his body and Soul. His Vampire Progenitor and Dragon Traits were merging completely, and this effect was shown on his exterior body and Soul.
Horns appeared on his head, two wings sprouted from his back, and all his scales took on a violet hue with small crimson tones. His whole body became a deadly weapon.
Inside Victor's Soul, the Dragon within him became more visible until it was completely realized. The image of a Dragon with scales like the starry night of the galaxy appeared in the sky of Victor's inner world.
"How beautiful..." Roxanne murmured. Despite its beauty, she didn't miss the detail that the Dragon was slowly merging with Victor's Soul, protecting his inner world.
At the same time, Time on Mount Olympus had returned to normal, and his attack was ready to be used.
ROOOOOOAR!
A roar even more terrifying and deafening than before echoed through the air, causing the war itself to stop. The multi-colored Energy Beam, mainly violet and red, flew toward the three Gods.
The foreign God managed to escape in time, and Nocturnus also succeeded, but... Tartarus, who was closer, wasn't so lucky.
The left half of his body was engulfed by the Energy Beam, and he didn't even have time to say anything. All he could do was scream in pain, a pain he had never felt before.
"AHHHHHHH!"
Just like Tartarus' half obliterated body, everything behind him wasn't any different, including the Space separating The Underworld from Mount Olympus and Mount Olympus from the outer dimension.
The whole of Mount Olympus trembled before the attack, and this attack was felt by ALL Supernatural Beings, not only in Olympus but throughout the entire world. Even the Highest Entities felt it.
Those who lacked the resources to understand what was happening wondered what this feeling was.
Those with resources immediately turned their attention to Mount Olympus; they needed to know what was going on!
The attack from Victor slowly began to lose its Power, and all that remained was a sight even more unforgettable than Zeus's death.
"... Holy Fuck..." Persephone, who was trying to concentrate, lost her composure completely when she saw the hole in the sky.
Even with the naked eye, she could see the surface of Olympus and even the space outside the dimension.
The attack ignored all natural defenses of the dimension and the Pantheon! The entire Pantheon was literally pierced in half!
A feat that will be forever marked in history, a legend that will be passed on forever. The story of a Mortal who, with his Power, pierced all the barriers of a Pantheon.
