Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 441: Bloodlust

"It has to be this way, Sene. Drop it." Lilith sharpy claimed as if I were a damn stranger!

"Kill her now!" Said the voice from deep within.

"Fuck off," I fired back within, "Who the hell are you to command me."

"Love is weakness. And you are weak." It uttered for the first time in different words other than 'kill her.'

"Hurry,' Lilith suddenly said, glancing back towards the rising tension between Yael and Galton.

Pulling me into the lake that had shrunk considerably, I felt the family jewels warm. It was pretty comforting, seeing that some strange thing was apparently haunting me. How the hell did that even happen?

"Release your killing intent Sene, release it all. No need to hold back; drown this realm in it." Lilith softly said, touching her womb. She was smiling, with a hint of tears streaming from her eyes as she stared at me with such a tender look.

How could I ever even consider killing her? Her gaze made me feel like I was melting.

"Sene?" She called out again, giggling as I stared in wonder.

"R-right, sorry," I uttered, smiling gently. 'Let's do it."

Closing my eye, I calmed my soft heart when a cold blade suddenly struck, severing all my emotion. Opening my eyes, a sea of scarlet clouded my eyes. Suddenly the howls of man, beast, and gods bellowed into the void clawing its way from the depths of hell.

They were screaming even if they were not there with me anymore. The millions, billions, trillions, and more all screaming my name from the void. It was like hell itself had descended into the land.

"Arsene!" Yael roared with anger, watching the now small lake turn black and white.

"Galton, we have an invitation into the Libary of Time by Aelfwif himself. I expect you will not stop us?" Lilith suddenly said, catching me off guard.

Not letting up, I could see the ghost of my past began to claw at my body with dreadful screams that would scare even the most hardened of souls. To think I would have killed so many.

Lifting his chin, Galton frowned, tracing his gaze over me and onto Lilith. "What was the trade?"

"One Hour in the Library of Time, in return, I told Aelfwif who is responsible for everything. The reason you all are missing vital information within your libraries."

"So Lord Aelfwif made a move, did he? I shall allow your passage but upon your return. I will demand penance for what you have done." Galton so foolishly said. Was he on crack?

Bro, I am not coming back here. You crazy or what?

Holding me tight, the dark waters around us began to swirl. Holding onto my bloodlust, Yael roared.

"For his Majesty!"

"I think not. Lord Aelfwif would not look kindly on me if something happened to them in our territory." Galton scornfully sneered, waving his hands towards us, enchanting the waters with his blessing.

Coiling around Lilith and me, our bodies swiftly slipped into the depths of this lake, falling deep and deeper till all that was left was darkness, unlike anything I had ever seen.

'Sene, when we arrive, you will not be able to touch anything unless you use a higher tier power, Like your abyssal Night Qi or devil Qi." Said Lilith within my mind. "Also, try not to annoy these people. Some of them are higher beings like fifth-dimensional beings."

'What the hell? Why are they even here then?"

"Asmodeus said that it's due to the nature of the Etherial Plane. He said many of these abominations are insane, stuck in a hell of their own creation. While others grow in power, they follow the doctrine of their Ruler, no matter their insanity or power. To record all, but never interfere. "

"How old do you think Galton is?"

"I think he is still pretty young. The contempt he showed for Yael proves it. Those from the Ethereal Plane slowly lose their emotions over the endless cycles. Till all that is left is insanity and the mission."

This sounds a bit cruel. If these beings are immortal, then how long have they lived? How strong are they really? It has always been safe to say that Asmodeus was the strongest, but I had a feeling he was not a fifth-dimensional being, although he most definitely had their battle prowess.

Soon the blackness of this place began to ripple. Feeling we slipped through a thin barrier of water and onto land, my eyes suddenly grew wide, watching myself fall through the ground.

Gripping me tight, Lilith hastily pulled me up, "You have to use your Qi Sene."

Nodding slightly, a thin cloak of abyssal Night shadowed me as I observed my surrounding. The air was dark, with a lovely glow of a silver moon, but it all felt empty. The Dark Forest teeming with a dense mist the obstructed my few, the silver crescent moon, even the air itself. It all felt unreal and hallow.

"Arsene Snow, you finally appear." Said an unfamiliar voice sending a chill down my spine.

Glancing around at nothing but my surroundings, I frowned, but Lilith seemed relatively unphased, "Aelfwif, are you here to welcome us?"

"I cannot leave my station, but someone should be with you soon. We look forward to seeing you, Daughter of The Abyss, same with you Arsene Snow."

Such a cold voice. Not even Asmodeus sounds so chilly. Who the hell are these people?

Tapping my shoulder, Lilith grinned like a child, "When are we having another session? Mama is ready to pop out some babies."

Twitching my brow, I chuckled, "How many do you want exactly?"

"Hmmm, Five hundred maybe more."

"..."

"..."

"..."

This bitch is crazy! Who the hell is having five hundred kids! That's insane! Hell no! Although five hundred little Liliths. It would be super cute. No, hell no. I don't clean poop. People clean my poop.

(A/N; reference to chapter two or three when he was a baby.)

Coughing into my palm, I found a weak smile upon my lips. "How about three or maybe seven."

Giggling cutely in her hands, Lilith placed her palms upon my shoulders, "Sene. Lili always gets hers. It's not up to you, but rather that thing between your legs. Lili is taking what is hers."

My God, she is talking in the first person again.
