Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse (WN)

Vladivostok finally felt his mouth having the ability to move again as he glanced up towards Noah with a shaking face holding an unbelievable expression within the wide Blood World the two of them were in. His silver hair danced wildly atop his aged head, his facial muscles nearly spasming at the shock.

"H-how...Ah!"

He uttered beneath his breath only for a second before his seasoned mind adapted and he looked back down, speaking out with a shaking voice that held a tinge of respect and fear!

"Thi- this lowly servant greets the Progenitor, and hopes you will grant me mercy of for my actions!"

The Star Forging Vampyre Ruler hurriedly blurted out words nobody would ever expect to hear him say to someone an entire realm above him, but as the Vampyre felt his bloodline begin to boil just because he was near this being, his disbelieving thoughts finally settled as he admitted to himself that somehow, unbelievably- this Infernal Lord in front of him actually held the Bloodline of the Progenitor, a being with the purest bloodline of his race!

He did not understand why or how, but he knew it to be so! He remained on the ground as his body shook, the shock and fear he felt gradually wiping away as it soon began to turn into a sense of...excitement.

"Rise. I'll take the time to discuss many things with you later, but if you have made your way here, so will others soon."

Noah glanced at this being that was going through one emotion to another as he spoke, Vladivostok rising as his disbelieving expression was completely wiped away, now looking at Noah with an expression of reverence as his mind finally felt like it was moving freely again and he understood the importance of the Progenitor standing in front of him.

This was the Progenitor himself! His appearance here meant a great deal of things for Vampyres, as he was the singular leader of their race!

Vladivostok forgot all about his bearing of a Star Forging expert, of a being that had been overseeing the many Vampyre Clans in the Dark Expanse as he knew in front of the being with the purest bloodline, realms of power made no difference!

His heart did not feel any sense of weirdness or unwillingness the moment he affirmed the being in front of him really was the Progenitor, his tone even trying to be more servile as he spoke towards him.

"I had no idea of your coming, O Progenitor, but it can only mean for a grand future for all of us. My rash coming here will most likely cause someone like Edrusim to come by. What are your commands?"

A voice akin to that of a servant asking their master rang out, Noah glancing at this being as he felt the vibrant power of the Blood Progenitor grant him utter control of a being an entire realm above him.

He had many plans in mind on how he should move forward before the full scale war broke out, and he had a great deal of things to get done before then, but now he also had the Vampyres of the Dark Expanse on his plate! He thought of the skill trees to advance, the planets to connect to, and the numerous fantastic things like the upgrade of a world or worlds into a realm, his mind moving as he chose a certain point in time to fit the Vampyres as well!

"Gather the Vampyre Clans of the Dark Expanse, their leading figures, and their most powerful forces in a week and then send me the coordinates. At that time, I will descend to properly take a look at the powerful beings of my race that have only become a mere faction of the Dark Expanse."

The more he spoke, the more respectful and servile the Star Forging being in front of him became, his next words causing a reaction that confirmed Noah's choice to add the Vampyres of the Dark Expanse on his to do list even with all the things he had to do.

"Yes, Master!"

RUMBLE!

From Noah's body, glimmering gold and dark essence were released as they went to wash over the now excited Vladivostok, who had heard a command to gather the Vampyres together to acknowledge their Progenitor!

This would be a momentous event of their race, something that had not happened in more than a thousand years!

His excitement only rose higher as just from being near the Progenitor, he could feel his body gaining more and more strength, this being not realizing that he was now considered a subordinate of Noah and fit the specifications of the Guider Type abilities that Noah always had active.

His body felt the unique energy of chaos as he understood that, but he was even more shocked to sense the freely flowing aura of fate as he gave the Progenitor an even more incredulous look, but did not raise a single question as he stood up, sensing the aura of a being he knew to well come from a distance.

Seeing the demeanor of the Progenitor, Vladivostok understood his wishes to remain in secrecy for now as he spoke out.

"I will clear my mistake here first with no issues, O Progenitor, and let you know as soon as I complete your command!"

His voice was strong as he spoke out like someone that would do whatever it took to accomplish the goal given. There was not an ounce of pride or arrogance for his mighty status of a Star Forging Expert, nor any status of a Ruler that had been overseeing billions of beings over the past hundred years. In front of the Bloodline power that was the purest, all of these distinctions were wiped away!

Noah nodded towards this powerful being as the Blood World around them began to fade.

Seeing the aura of fate and chaos descend into the body of Vladivostok, Noah confirmed that the future event with the Vampyres would have their own abundant rewards, where he only imagined the millions of powerful Vampyres who could actually fight in the war fitting the conditions to be his subordinates and gaining the boosts of the Guider Type abilities!

This would be something that would heavily influence the Dark Expanse, as well as the direction of the War that involved the lives of trillions.

To him, all this translated to was...more Fate Lines and Chaos Particles, and especially abundant ones at that as it would steer the direction of numerous powerful beings, unlike the weak ones on the numerous planets he was currently connected to!

RUMBLE!

The Blood World fully disappeared as those outside of it looked in, seeing Noah floating in the void of space calmly as Vladivostok was near him, his face seemingly trying to be serious, but one could distinctly see the trace of happiness and excitement in his red eyes.

Vladivostok glanced at the surrounding figures as he saw the materialization of the Grand Mage Edrusim in the distance with a dark face, his figure going towards this leading figure of the Dark Expanse as he telepathically bid farewell to the Progenitor.

Noah glanced at the Grand Mage he had yet to interact with, Vladivostok's figure shooting towards this Mage instantly as he began speaking out and the face of the Grand Mage gradually calmed down.

Commanding Mage Turner, the Dark Wizard Shanora, and the incredulous Royal Vampyre Rokku were still on the side with agape expression as even now they did not understand what had just happened.

Noah glanced at Rokku and the tens of thousands of Vampyres behind him, his eyes shining as he looked forward to seeing a scene of millions of Vampyres as he sent a telepathic message to Commanding Mage Turner bidding his farewell for now, and sending another command for the Infernal Legion to head back to the Infernal Gate that led to the second Realm of Hell!

OOOOH!

"Ready to serve!"...

The chants of the Infernals resounded yet again as they made their way across the void of space, Noah leaving the cleaning up of the battlefield and the handling of the numerous beings from the Light Expanse to the Verittas Fortress, his mind already planning his moves the moment he returned to the Infernal Realm.

"Ah…"

He heard the voice of the Dark Wizard Shanora that had mentioned she wanted to discuss something with him after the battle, but he paid it no heed as he already had too many things on his plate, his discernment with Fate Traverse telling him it would simply be something else that required him to put a significant amount of time into, and it was time that he actually did not have.

He left Vladivostok to deal with the entrance of a Grand Mage as he took his forces away, bidding farewell to the location of the first battle that had granted him more than 2 million Fate Lines, his heart looking forward into the future as he moved forward!

Those left behind at the Verittas Fortress were only left with incredulousness and confusion as they asked themselves- just who exactly was this 9th Infernal Lord?
