Dorothy watched from the palace hallway with a sad expression. She couldn't intervene that much because she knew the truth as to why her husband was like that to Alucard. She blinked her tears away and left, leaving her words to linger about.
“You will know one day Alucard.”

After a few minutes passed as Alucard laid there, he got up and dusted his clones. Wordlessly he left the yard and headed to the secluded part of the Palace, that side was Alucard's favorite hanging spot. It was filled with weed all around but in the center were crimson flowers, these flowers were called Red Spider Lilies.
Alucard walked across the waist length weed and stopped next to the fl
Alucard after that day of hearing his mother and so called father quarrel and finding out the truth stopped playing nice all together. He spent his days training nonstop under the guidance of the woman he met in the cave. His Qi refinement and cultivation soared by leaps and bounds. Over three whole weeks, he trained in Qi control and cultivation, he also was preparing for the upcoming Dragon Talon tournament, he was going to claim what was rightfully his.Like every other day, Alucard was with the water spirit doing physical training when the woman in the water called out to him. Causing Alucard to stop whatever he was doing, and he went up to The edge of the water and sat down.“Why did you call me?”❝ For the past weeks you've been training on your cultivation skill and you managed to hone it to perfection, however there's one I want to teach you. ❞“OH? What could that one be?”❝ It is called Archetype: Accelerated Combatant Cultivation Technique. ❞“Archetype: Accelerated Combata
In all of the rulers no one was as furious as Azazel while no one was as happy as Dorothy. Due to Enslynue patriarchy system she couldn't do anything to prevent Azazel from stunting her older son's potential. She was glad that Alucard somehow managed to grow stronger without Azazel's help and she thought that it was the right thing he had done. But her significant order did not share the same sentiments as her apparently, he was appalled by the fact one of his sons, the person he had taught effortlessly lost to Alucard.Dorothy was alerted by the sound of wood cracking. She turned to her side and saw her husband furiously digging his fingers into the armrest of his throne, causing splinters to emerge from the once flat armrest. Although she didn't like Azazel's practices whenever it came to her children, it didn't mean she didn't care about his wellbeing. So Dorothy, like a doting wife and queen leaned closer to Azazel's ear.“Dear you'll end up hurting yourself if you continue doing
The brutal display of fighting and the severity of the attacks Xerxes used was uncalled for, and it warranted criticism from the others even the sovereigns. Midas albeit concerned held his tongue and nudged his wife on the side silently alerting her to check upon their son. From his perspective the wounds were not minor, not at all. They were deep and were curved with an intent to take his life, Midas shot a glance at Azazel and a frown married his face but acting civilly, he just kept his calm and watched the match which proceeded rather quickly in comparison to the other two.-The fights that followed after were on par with the ones that had opened up the tournament, and in all four fights, four of the eight participants proceeded forward, along side Alucard and Xerxes was Solaris, Kagami, Akemi and Musamune. The four had put on a splendid show for the spectators showcasing their remarkable strengths and sacred techniques.❝ Ladies and Gentlemen the first round was indeed electrify
As Musamune turned around, Alucard placed a punch on his face causing the boy to stagger backwards. But Alucard wasn't done, he was not giving Musamune time to recover. He followed by a punch to the face then another one to the chin uprooting Musamune sending him into the sky, however before Musamune can fly away from the force. Alucard grabbed his leg and yanked it back at him simultaneously delivering a vicious closeline making Musamune do a 360° spin before smashing on the ring floor. Alucard jumped back and poked his chest releasing the Qi he has stored up in his body. “So that's how it is huh. You are opening your meridians to get an addition boost, now I know it.” Musamune said, digging himself out of the crater he made and resumed his stance. The two charged at one another and both evenly matched as they threw punches at one another, with every punch, the other had a counter for it. Every kick was the same. Their collision was fast, and it left gusts of air weeping across the
A few days passed after Alucard and his mother had the conversation. Although Alucard felt relieved that his mother had the courage to talk to him, that didn't ease his worries as he had heard what happened. Xerxes won and Solaris won but due to the power dynamic, Solaris was paired up against Hael who effortlessly tore down Solaris because he was fully healed while she had just won her fight. Alucard also got informed that, the finals will be a three way fight between him, Xerxes and Hael.Alucard knew he had to come up with a counter for Xerxesʼ shadows and Hael because he knew that those two will be in cohorts until they dethrone him. Sylth noticed this and decided to cut Alucard's train of thought short as it was interfering with his meditation.❝ Alucard come here. There's something I want to teach you, this is the most powerful cultivation script I know of. ❞Alucard nodded and went to the water, what he had to do already second nature to him. He dip
Hael got up from the floor and dusted his clothing. He had trained hard with his father and brother during the time they were given to prepare but still, he felt like the power gap between him and Alucard was growing bigger, like a river widening. Hael closed his eyes, breathed in and out, Qi circulating all over his body as the temperature started to rise with every round of breathing in and out Hael did. Ionized particles started to float besides him before latching into his skin turning it pitch black.SYNERGY SYMBIOTE : BIO-PLASMA CONTROLAlucard was taken back by the metamorphosis, he never knew that Hael had this much power. The shear radiating heat was insane even for Alucard, he never knew that Qi could burn this hot before but now he knew.As he preoccupied with his thoughts, Hael appeared in front of him, having used plasma to move by surfing on it. “Why are you so dazed.”Alucard snapped back to reality just as a fist smacked
The arena was quiet, they wanted to see what happened when the plasma blast ransacked the ring. A majority of them were relieved because the barrier protected them from the ionized particles, while others were worried about the shining star Alucard who was mercilessly getting hammered at every turn to no end.“So that's how your power works.” Alucard's voice emerged from the soot, followed by a flicker of red, which dispersed the soot immediately revealing the ring to the audience. The ring which was barely standing. SYLTH COMMANDMENT: WRATHAlucard stood there with his Kimono and Haori burnt revealing his physique. He was cloaked in a red hue a manifestation of his Qi that had altered its natural pigment in alignment to his sentiments. In Alucard's eyes laid anger, untamed anger with was flashing with the red glint that appeared in them.Hael was shocked, he knew his plasma blast was potent enough to vaporize the skin from Alucard's body yet there he was with nothing but burnt cloth
Alucard stared at the humongous hand emerging from the symbol with concerned look, he knew nothing good would come out of that thing emerging and how far would Xerxes go just to see him perish?With the hand completely out, an arm followed and the thing emerging used the arm to pull itself to the surface. The head emerged along with the torso and legs. It stood there in all its magnificence.The thing summoned; had dark red skins with worts covering its elongated nose. White pupils, two horns on the head and a curved mouth showing jaggered teeth. The height difference between the thing and Alucard was the factor that decided everything. The thing easily surpassed Alucard in height, its head was appearing above the arena when it word.The creature had a long brown tomahawk in its right hand and in its left it was holding a chain that was draped over its entire torso.It roared, releasing a deafening scream and also scaring the audience as this was no longer a fight.Alucard although fa
As the explosion died down, a bruised Arthur and Linux stood near the edge roots of energy. They held their breaths, anticipating to see the product of their combined effort to defeat the adversary before them. “Insolent fools,” Arodis's voice pierced through the dimensional rift as the last bit of energy circulating where he was dissipated. Arthur and Linux were astounded at the resilience the mechanical monster before them had, the attacks were enough to shake the void realm they were in and cause destruction on a greater scale and yet the target of their attacks only suffered getting his right side blown away. Their shock did not last long as the Qi levels started to rapidly rise, skyrocketing to a point the dimensional rift showed cracks in its edges. “Something is coming” Arthur informed his new comrade. Linux nodded, she could feel the foul Qi resonating around them. Having been connected to the Source, it made it easier for her to detect presences linked to Oblivion. Arod
Arthur spectated the interaction until the towering mechanical being hit Linux, he tightened his grip around his sword. Even if the woman was a menace and a thorn in his side, Arthur was not going to stand by and watch her get hurt. He dashes over to Linux and caught her. His gesture startled the woman who was unsure of what to do. She had been trying to ruin him at every chance she got and yet he was there to rescue her when she needed help. Why? Why was he so selfless? Everything was because of her, he lost everything. His friends, his reality, and his home world all because she was following a fool's goal. Linux looked at Arthur, “Why did you help me?” Arthur acknowledged her question but never paid attention to her. His eyes were focused on Arodis, the speed the latter had struck Linux with was something they had yet to deal with. His vision could not track the hand movement of Arodis until Linux was hit and Arthur was positive that he could track even light moving through
Linux dashed forward and delivered a roundhouse kick to Arthur, the latter blocked the attack with his right forearm and used his left hand to grab Linux's ankle. Arthur twisted his body around generating enough momentum to send Linux flying but instead of releasing his grasp, he smashed the latter on the ground creating a large crater with Linux's body. He was not done, he stabbed his sword near Linux's face and chuckled. The woman was as fast as ever, she managed to narrowly avoid his attack by just an inch when she moved her head. But it did not matter to Arthur, he still had a hold on her ankle. Or so he thought. Linux kicked Arthur on the chin making the latter stagger backward, slightly disoriented from the power behind the blow. Arthur regained his bearing and launched his attack; the black sword in his hand acting as an extension of his reach as he swung it in an attempt to slice through the woman. Linux was nimble on her feet, she easily evaded a majority of the attack
[Where am I?] [You are locked in the subconscious of your mind by Linux, right now the person using our body is not you.][I... See. So what are we going to do Aether?] [The only thing we had been doing ever since, we fight! With all our strength, I have a feeling that our salvation is coming.] Arthur nodded as he looked at Aether, the main conscience behind his actions. It had been a couple of months, maybe a year, since they last, sat down and had a conversation. [So what's going to happen once you complete your goal? Are you going to return to your home world?] Aether shook his head. There's no world to return to, everything was destroyed by Linux's wrath. He clutched his fists tightly and bit his lip. He was useless. He could not protect what his forefathers gave their lives to protect. He did not deserve to be a sorcerer Supreme. Sanz was better suited for the role but his lack of magical prowess got in the way. Aether has to admit something he had been running from. He
Dante dashed forward, crossing the distance between him and the controlled Arthur in a second. He appeared behind Arthur after he relocated and kicked the latter in the back with enough force to shatter the spine of Arthur. Arthur felt his insides grind up from the attack, it was as if his back was being pressed against his stomach. He could feel the bones cracking from the internal pressure. Arthur staggered forward from the kick and turned around only to receive a boot to the chin uprooting him from his feet, launching him into the air. Dante outstretched his arm and a Chakram blade appeared in the palm, he threw the blade with precision at Arthur aiming to slice the latter's neck clean. Arthur saw the blade and covered his most vulnerable part by bringing his head forward, the Chakram cut through his left eye as it narrowly missed his neck. He landed on the ground and placed a hand on his eye, he had one vision now and he could not focus because he was hearing whispers in his
As Evangelist screamed in the illusion world, her screams escaped her mouth startling the others with her. The woman writhing at their feet startled them, they looked at the woman who was holding her head and looked at Arthur. “What did you do to her?” Lily asked looking at Arthur as she cradled Evangelist in her arms. Concern for the woman flashed in her eyes. She saw how protective Arthur was toward the woman in her hands, he threatened them the first time they met and put himself in harm's way for her safety. So why? Why did he attack her like that? The cause of the mental anguish the woman in her arms was the glowing eyes from Arthur, after they glowed, Evangelist behaved rather oddly for Lily even if she was not around her for a long period of time. Arthur stared at the woman unsympathetically, he felt nothing even when she screamed. Hearing Lily ask what he had done, he stared at Lily as well. “I merely put her in an illusion, if she can't win against her past she's weak
Arthur took a look at the gate opened by Linux, his eyes peered through the gate seeing across the dimensions. He knew he made a grave error in calculations but he had to, to match the power of Linux it was imperative for him to release the seal. He flickered across the battlefield and appeared before Linux, he threw a punch at the latter who blocked his punch. Linux kicked Arthur away from her only for the latter to pounce back and be on the assault once again. She diverted and blocked his attacks retaliating with her own. Each time their attacks met, the land shook and the earth split into two. The winds roared as they rippled across the battlefield and the entirety of the globe.Arthur jumped back distancing himself from Linux, he dodged to the side seeing the horde fire attacks where he was standing. He gritted his teeth and looked around him. The army of legions surrounded him, closing every escape route he had. But Arthur was not intimidated, he could deal with a majority o
Granger sneered at Arthur, he was a pest on his side. He did not know when to give up and walk away, the latter was always meddling in his ambitions acting as a hindrance to his goals. Ever since he got word of him, he had been wary of Arthur, he organized the summit between rankers in an attempt to kill him but that failed too. Arthur reminded Granger of someone. Granger chuckled remembering that one friend he had back in his timeline. He was like the man before him, obnoxious, he never knew when to stop probing into people's businesses until he got killed. Arthur looked at the chuckling man, he raised an eyebrow wondering if the latter had gone senile. “What is so funny?” Granger hummed upon hearing the question, what was funny? He looked up at the ceiling unable to find the right words. He contemplated his choice of speech before he began to reply.“You remind me of someone, a person I held dear to me,” Granger replied reminiscing of the past. Held dear? Those words held mean
The battle began between the last two individuals transported away by Midas. They were at a mountain range, the winds were chilling cold as they pillaged the lands like travelers, caressing everything they touched.The weather was humid yet tumultuous at the same time as it caved to the Qi the two fighters had. Standing near the foliage on the mountain peak was a young man standing at 5 foot 7 inches, he wore Israeli clothing consisting of a white blouse shirt, strap-on sandals, and a large coat above. On his waist was a rope that had a small bag connected to it. He was David, the one who had a blessing from the all-father. Also known as the Goliath Slayer. Alucard peered at the man standing before him, he was not that impressive. His body physique was average at best, with no defining muscle structure but there was something about the man that made him take the fight seriously. He could not place his finger on it, but it felt as if he was staring at an even greater being than he
