Paragon of Death

85 Chapter 84: Final blow

Hmph!

Cyclones of blood surged forward with Damon standing at the center with a stern look on his face. Normally, the blood clan is considered weak. Most members are no different from mindless vampires who just live to feed. Their ties with the first blood of the blood clan are practically non-existent. These people lack the various cultivation methods reserved for the members of the blood clan but Kyle was different.

Judging based on the variety of attacks that have been launched by this foe, Damon already guessed Kyle was not the same as other vampires he has encountered today.

The vampire secret techniques which can be cultivated as soon as one reaches the warrior realm are quite vast for a small race. His enemy is still definitely holding back his true strength.

While the human realm was practically some people gathering their thoughts and mana of the world to produce amazing experiences, the warrior realm was far different. It was different in the sense that magic was not what was studied anymore. Instead, what these people have to deal with is no different from forms of magic.

Damon had just broken through and while his strength has scaled up his proficiency actually scaled down, that was why he has been a bit stiff all through these battles.

Damon stood at the center of the four blood cyclones while gazing at the vampire afar. Since the vampire already knew his identity as the death mage, Damon couldn’t afford to let him escape.

“Death comes in so many forms, from my list of possible and usable elements... do you think I have exhausted my options?” Damon sneered coldly.

Buzz!

.....

His words were like massive buzzers in the head of the enemy who frowned in response but didn’t hold back his attack.

Xiu!

The four cyclones gathered to form a massive blood hurricane, collapsing on Damon!

Huff!

“I guess I have no other choice” Damon said with a grim look as a dark aura erupted from his body but it wasn’t the death aura, it was different!

Boom!

Damon raised his sword, taking a direct hit of the attack, forcing him to go down on one knee.

Hmph!

Fierce flames erupted around Damon, burning so fiercely that everything ten meters around him were forced to retreat or get burnt to ashes!

Shadow spikes!

Damon’s shadow rippled as spear shaped spikes shot out, racing towards the enemy but Damon didn’t stop there. His eyes revealed immense killing lights as Kyle’s shadow rippled and more shadow spikes shot out piercing into the vampire’s body!

Brilliant claw!

Damon growled as his energy surged through his bone greatsword as he cut forward!

Hoses!

Seemingly trapped and left undefended, Kyle hissed like a snake before exploding into a blood mist, retreating a few hundred meters before stopping.

“Human!” Kyle growled furiously. The moment, Damon used the brilliant claw he began drawing strength from his werewolf side which improved his physical strength!

While Kyle managed to escape safely, he was hit by the shockwave from the attack which caused him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

“Don’t worry, this will all be over soon” Damon said coldly as the bone sword sank into his shadow and his claws glowed instead.

Bang!

Boom!

Damon shot forward like a spear and smashed into Kyle, dragging him towards the staircase and smashing him into the stairs!

Brilliant claw!

Buzzz!

The space rippled with a surging, darkish purple aura combating against the blood red aura surging sinisterly.

Blood wings!

Peng!

With great effort Kyle was able to knock Damon back, detaching from him before attempting to shoot into the air but he was stopped.

Bam!

Damon held on to his foot preventing him from escaping. Seeing this Kyle grimaced, he was about to make a move but Damon was a tad bit faster.

Crunch!

Fangs sank into the exposed feet of the enemy but then Kyle kicked Damon in the face and flew up towards the burning ceiling.

“Shit...” Kyle muttered as he gazed at the bite wound on his feet and cursed coldly. The bite of a werewolf has always been lethal to a vampire.

Bang!

Following the loud sound which got his attention, Kyle could barely react as someone smashed into him!

Boom!

The moment the purple light struck the enemy, it dragged him forward, racing towards the unknown!

Kill!

Bang!

One of the forbidden palace doors flung open as Kyle shot out, falling to the ground while Damon stepped out. His bone armor was gone and was replaced by the aura armor granted by his Werewolf’s roar techniques.

Their appearance attracted the attention of many, including Tristan and the five-tailed fox lady who stood head to head, exchanging heavy blows that made the entire area tremble repeatedly.

“It’s over... you practice blood arts but you seem to be just beginning... maybe if I met you later than I did, you would have been able to beat me” Damon said coldly without hesitation.

Infidel!

Boom!

Blood squirted out of the vampire’s body, shooting in all directions. Blood mists began to form and spread.

Pa!

Damon’s hands clasped together without hesitation as fire and wind surged around him dangerously. If there is one thing Damon can boldly admit he has failed at, he would say the fusion process is the one. His inability to merge his elements to form an entirely new element is something that completely eludes him but that doesn’t mean he couldn’t take advantage of the lesser version of this thing.

The next moment, the flame and wind combined before shooting forward, racing into the blood mist!

Snap!

Boom!

With a snap of his fingers, an explosion erupted and Kyle was thrown out of it. Damon slowly approached with a stern look on his face. The defeated vampire was worn-out and weakened. The werewolf venom made things even worse. . At this point even the enemy knew something was wrong.

Kyle struggled but the more he struggled the weaker he got. His body was riddled with black veins at various parts of his body. His body looked weak but his eyes lacked fear, instead, it was filled with resentment!

“In war, it’s not about who tries the best or has the most determination.... Anything can happen and anyone can die... This is your fate” Damon approached while he talked. He was already tired of the battle and wished to put an end to this and moved forward.

Buzzz!

His words were like daggers, stabbing into the hearts of all those who heard them. In reality, he felt greatly embarrassed for failing to deal with Damon since but now it’s a tad bit too late for that!

When Damon appeared from the burning building, he came out with an already carved stake in his hand as he walked over to the enemy and knelt beside him.

“In the end, this is how far it got you” Damon said with genuine sadness in his eyes.

Considering Kyle’s background as someone who met a tragic fate at a young age just like him, Damon felt more inclined to feel pity.

“I don’t regret anything....” Kyle said.

In fact, I strongly believed I could have killed you if I was given just a little motivation. It’s really sad things got to this point and I couldn’t go through with it.... When I learned about your identity as the lone wolf I wondered if I would be doing the right thing by killing you since you clearly didn’t want to get involved.” Kyle said slowly.

“Yet this happened.... I don’t hate the vampire race but I don’t fancy building a city where humans are used as livestock. Children and parents live in fear, wondering when they will be the next meal of the vampires. Parents and children are forced to donate a certain amount of blood on a daily. You were once human, tell me you would have loved to watch your loved ones live in a place like that?” Damon said coldly and Kyle frowned.

He didn’t want to agree but he couldn’t help but admit, that Damon wasn’t lying. Their fight is with the Gyro Kingdom and not other weak, defenseless humans. I’d it wasn’t for the thirst, Kyle wouldn’t even feed. In summary, Damon knew Kyle wasn’t really a bad person, he couldn’t sense any ill intentions directed toward him all through the battle. It felt like Kyle was only fighting him because he was ordered to.

“This war is not something you should get involved in. The Hails are not telling you this but the Gyro Kingdom is not strong enough to deal a heavy blow on the blood clan. In fact, should the two sides fight, Gyro will most definitely get wiped out. That is why they are attacking alongside all the other great countries. You are not the only one preparing to wipe us out” Kyle said with a bitter smile.

His words left Damon speechless as a twisted look bloomed on his face as he diffused the meaning behind Kyle’s words. This was a warning for him to not get involved in this war!
