Chapter 18: Breaking mortal shackles(1)
Karl's consciousness slowly drifted away. This was the a huge shock to the beauty who had been keeping her attention on him since awakening. It seemed he hadn't fully awakened. This was an anomaly. It wouldn't be now. He needed time to grow his powers.
Amelithea's spiritual body materialised revealing her divine figure. Immediately she isolated the cave in a different dimension. Her gaze shifted towards Karl who had a painful expression.
"Seems you are destined to carry on great things. Even I don't really know how this has happened." Amelithea said softly. This area was really rich in cosmic energy compared to Earth. Were the fate sisters responsible but no they couldn't...She quickly discarded the idea as it came.
She floated towards Karl. His body greedily sucked the energy in the vicinity. The area was chaotic. Everything was shaking as if a heavy earthquake was taking place. There was a dense amount of energy around him.
The maids were now confused. At first things appeared as if shit had hit the fan. But it quickly disappeared as if an illusion. What they didn't know was that all they were seeing was an illusion. Amelithea had already sealed the cave into another dimension.
Kina felt something was amiss but couldn't put a finger on it. She had a strong desire to go and check out on Karl but refrained from doing so.
The divine beauty looked at him quietly. This was his experience and she didn't want to intervene too much. She couldn't allow those Vampires find out more than they should thus she kept them away.
His blood boiled and temperatures rose. His bloodline was awakening. This wasn't supposed to happen according to her analysis. His body wasn't strong enough to withstand the pressure. Though his regeneration was helping out, the burden was really great that some cracks started appearing on his body.
Red blood with golden tints sipped out of his body. He could feel the energy peirce him like a thousand needles. He tightly clenched his jaws and took the pain head on. The temperature started alternating at a rapid pace. There was lightning fire ice plants space fluctuations etc.
Everything around him was destroyed beyond repair. He was now floating above a huge hole where darkness reigned supreme. Amelithea looked at this with surprise. Even though he was just in Martial rank, this level of destruction was way above that. The hole was about 620 meters deep.
'Is this really my end. I don't want to have a meaningless death. I still have much to do.'
His thoughts were cut off when he suddenly appeared on an island surrounded by a sea as far as his eyes could see. The island was made up of sand with palm trees all around. The weather was soothing. Karl looked around in confusion.
'This us an illusion, open your eyes Karl.' He heard a faint whisper. He again looked around but found nothing. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Upon opening them, they glowed and immediately his surrounding changed.
Now standing, he looked in a distance and saw a creature with four horns on its head, four dark red eyes. Its body was black with a sharp pointed tail. It looked like a bull but it's teeth betrayed it's appearance. The teeth were razor like. Miasma radiated off its body corrupting the surrounding. All the plant dried up.
"Haha...am quite impressed. I would have been disappointed if my opponent really fell for that simple trick." He could easily understand what it was saying which came as a surprise.
"Who are you? I don't think I have anything to do with you." Karl asked calmly though inside he was sweating buckets. This entity was more powerful than him. Seeing the level of corruption it caused, this would caused a huge damage to his soul. He couldn't fully understand how he ended up here.
Where this place was he didn't know. His eyes never left this strange entity. He noticed black rings around its limbs.
"If you keep standing there your body will explode. Am quite curious how your soul is this strong yet you are weak. It has managed to seal off 60% of my powers. But even so you still don't stand a chance in winning against me. And oh by the way, am Khora a devil as you can see." Khora said proudly as he announced his name. Devil's respected the strong. And Karl's soul was just that. Sealing off someone's power was very difficult but here he was.
Karl imagined two sharp katanas. Two red katanas materialised in his hands. Here his imagination controlled everything. The stronger the imagination the more his chances of survival. That was how terrifying 'Will' was. It depended much on one's soul and mind power.
Karl disappeared from his spot. Khora scoffed and punched backwards. Karl bent to the side and evaded the punch. He kicked forward but later regretted it as miasma burnt his feet. Both katanas glowed with crimson flames. Two gauntlets materialised in Khora's hands.
They started trading blows at a lightning speed. Karl was fully covered in golden lightning. He had let lose. His opponent was very powerful. The ground shattered and sparks flew everywhere. Strangely both of them had huge grins on their faces. Though he felt disgusted at Khora's creepy smile.
Boom Boom!!
Sonic booms rang out. Debris flew. Karl was beginning to feel suppressed.
