"The Blood, Flesh, and Soul of a Dragon King, what a delicious meal this is!" Laughed the Venerable of Vampires. He began absorbing all of Drake in mere splits of a second.
Drake very body started to be liquified alongside his soul! It was as if he was turning into mere soup before the grasp of the one that drank the blood of everything and almost killed everyone.
"No, Drake!" Yuki cried.
"Lord Drake…!" Hector said.
"Wait! No… NO!" Pekora panicked.
"This is… Why can't I move?! Fuck! FUCK!" Tisha cried.
"Nnnggh…! E-Everyone…!"
Drake cried in agony, as he was quickly consumed!
His very scales were absorbed, his flesh, bones, blood, and soul! The Venerable ate it all in an instant! The powerful Drake, the Dragon King was consumed!
He died in the spot!
Everyone's faces were filled with despair.
The one that led them this far, the one that protected them, the one that asked for their aid after doing so much for them beforehand.
He was gone now…
Completely gone!
His very weapons stuck to the floor; his spirits unable to move either.
Drake was devoured alone, as he screamed in agony.
"Hahahaha… Such a delicious meal! I have never eaten something so delicious before!"
The Vampire Venerable celebrated the power he felt overflowing through his very being. Scales grew over his titanic body, enormous horns spread further over his head, gigantic draconic wings.
Amongst the various powers he had within his Unique Skill Vampire Progenitor, the ability to absorb and assimilate Bloodlines and their characteristics and powers was one of them! The reason he grew so strong so fast was because of this.
The more he drank, the stronger he became, and the more grotesque he turned out to become. Gaining the characteristics of what the blood he drank came from. The bloodlines of thousands of beings were converged inside of his original body and soul, transforming him into an utterly abominable and eldritch chimeric aberration.
Such power held no equal when he was alive, he devoured it all, he took it all!
"I will take this world, and everything else once more… All of it!"
The Venerable's laughter reverberated across the skies and the earth. The death of Drake in front of his friends came with their utter despair.
"It's… it's over…" Yuki cried, tears flowing across her eyes. "Drake…"
"Drake… You can't give up yet! You promised me… DRAKE! You've got two daughters!" Rakasha roared furiously. "Whenever you are, WAKE UP!"
His scream was the only thing echoing as the Vampire Venerable enjoyed his new powers, he quickly looked down at Rakasha, his eyes glowing bright red.
"No matter how much you scream, no matter how much you ask for his presence… He's gone. And will never come back."
"No… Drake…!"
Rakasha began to remember his life, his memories, the loss of everything… His wife, his daughter, his family in the mountains. All of them died that day, and now, everything was repeating itself. But now… he was going to be also claimed by death's embrace.
"Your pathetic faces are the taste of that dragon's blood become bitter…"
The Vampire Venerable's claws reached Rakasha.
"You're next…"
As his claws drew closer and closer, a sudden twist within his entire, red-colored body stopped the enormous titan, surpassing five hundred meters, from moving.
"Ngh?!"
The Venerable's Vessel began bubbling all across. His entire body started inflating and deflating constantly. Several bubbles appeared around his body, exploding into blood that dropped into the ground below.
"Aggh…! W-What is this?! Unnghh…!"
Something the Venerable had actually never expected was happening, his vessel began to be suddenly taken over by another will… another being!
"ROOOARRR!"
A furious draconic roar echoed, as the Venerable's chest suddenly mutated, for a few seconds, the enormous head of Drake, grotesquely merging with the Venerable's blood emerged only to disappear once more.
Drake's eyes appeared across his body, his claws, arms, tail, legs, his jaws, everything! he constantly started forcefully trying to mutate the vessel of the Venerable!
In all his years he had never faced such a challenge!
"T-This is impossible…! How can you… How can you do this?!"
Perhaps because he lacked the rest of his soul, his memories and experience were not complete, and due to this fatal flaw, he panicked.
When the Venerable, amongst all beings panicked, was when Drake could pierce through his defenses the most!
"It wasn't easy, but it is not as if you're invincible, are you not, edge lord?"
"E-Edge lord?!"
The Vampire Venerable strangely reacted to that world more angered than any other insult he could receive! Drake knew that he would, for someone that came from another world to wish to become a Vampire, and to be such a ruthless man… He was obviously an edge lord in his previous life and had a very horrendous complex about it.
SPLAAAT!
Suddenly, a part of the titan's body exploded into pieces, the giant fell to his knees!
BAAAAMMMM!!!
The ground trembled, the entire Absolute Domain was interrupted, his power was weakened, and so everyone freed themselves from the Venerable's powers paralyzing them!
"AGH! UGH…! GRAAAAH!"
The scream of the Venerable was a surprising sight to behold for everyone. Their faces shocked as they saw Drake do the impossible! He was fighting the Venerable's will within his very body, fighting for taking control over the vessel and everything else!
Their power clashed within the interior of the gigantic body, that loud explosion was a result of their clash! Explosions all over the Venerable's body echoed constantly, blood splattered everywhere endlessly!
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOOM!
"W-We are free!" Said Hector, rushing towards everyone else. As someone that just awakened his Divinity of Light, he was quite good at using it. "Divine Light Magic: [Healing Divine Light]!"
FLAAASH!
And naturally, the element of light was dexterous at using healing spells! In an instant, he was able to heal everyone from their wounds and a bit of their exhaustion. Their faces shocked as they saw the titan falling apart by the internal battle that Drake and the Venerable were having against one another!
BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAM!
However, they could not sing victory yet.
The blood splattered wasn't just blood, it gained consciousness, and began to move…
