Vampire Overlord System in the Apocalypse

-----

Agate concentrated large quantities of Mana within a sphere, generating a large, rotating multi-colored jewel ball, which she charged with even more Mana!

The sphere of iridescent jewels flashed with bright yellow light, unleashing an enormous beam of holy light towards Arthur!

Arthur gritted his teeth as his sharp crimson eyes flashed with a scarlet light, a wave of black light and purple ethereal liquid emerged over his body, protecting him!

BOOM!

The black light began to absorb the holy light, and the corrosive purple ethereal substance corroded the light!

CLASH!

FLASH!

Suddenly, the holy light exploded and dissipated!

Agate was left in shock!

Just what kind of powerful barrier ability was that to completely negate her powerful beam of holy light?!

"What kind… power is that? I have never seen… black light before…" said Agate while clenching her fists.

"Why should I tell you anything? You are going to die anyway," sighed Arthur, surprising Agate!

From what she remembered about his profile that her father investigated, Arthur was cataloged as a shy boy, a pushover, a bit of a coward too, and even small and pathetic-looking…

Yet, Arthur… was completely different than any of such registry.

He was blazing with resolve.

Although he did not have the coldness and maliciousness of his companions, it did not mean that he was not ready to take the life of someone when it was needed.

He had already decided to walk the path of his master, Noah.

And to do that, he needed to change.

Through such harsh trials, he changed.

Fighting enormous armies of monsters, or even his own classmates that had come to kill him without even caring what he was…

He got to know that in this world, the strong made the laws.

In here, no one was going to pity him for trying his best.

He had to forge his own path, and walk at the side of those that had allowed him to advance through such a harsh world filled with danger and insanity.

For his friends and family, Arthur was now filled with the resolve to kill!

"Nnngh…! You monster…! SHUT UP AND DIE!" roared Agate, feeling furious over Arthur\'s words, and generating dozens of multi-colored jewel spheres, charging them with mana and firing beams of holy light towards him!

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

"Corrosion Domain…" said Arthur, as his eyes flashed with a purple light, his entire body unleashed an aura of corrosive poison, as he was shrouded in a domain of his own awakened Attribute.

Enhancing his body with his own Domain, Arthur generated a barrier of Black Light and Corrosion, and flew towards Agate, evading the incredibly fast beams of holy light while letting his barriers take into some.

The barriers would sometimes even tremble and shatter, but he kept conjuring them with his great Mana Pool and stockpiled blood which he drank to regain more Mana.

Arthur pointed his staff towards Agate, as he charged mana into it, generating spheres of corrosive and purple liquid through the Dark Spheres of Erosive Contamination Skill!

Flash! Flash! Flash! Flash!

Several spheres of corrosion reached Agate as she gritted her teeth, evading by generating barriers of jewels and holy light!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The corrosive explosions of poison exploded over the barriers of holy light, their attack power did not seem as strong…

"Hah, your offensive attacks are not so impressive!" laughed Agate.

"Corrosion Beast," said Arthur, completely ignoring Agate\'s baseless remarks.

Suddenly, the puddles of poison surrounding Agate that were generated when the spheres of erosive contamination exploded over her barriers began to move!

"W-What?"

Splash!

The poison quickly turned into a purple-colored slimy substance, getting together, and molding itself as an octopus-like beast with enormous crimson eyes and dozens of tentacles!

"GRRRUUUUOOORRR!"

Agate activated her movement Skills and managed to evade the powerful poisonous tentacles of the beast in time, smiling triumphantly, as she realized that the beast was not really that fast!

However, she realized that she had lost focus in the battle, and had completely lost track of Arthur!

The presence of a citric and acidic smell produced by poison emerged behind Agate, as she realized that Arthur was right behind her!

She saw as he raised his staff and began to generate more corrosive poison, gathering it as a sphere!

Agate who was already moving through the momentum of her steps and speed-related Skills could not evade in time, and her barriers were too slow to generate in time at this very moment!

By using the Corrosive Poison Synthesis Skill, Arthur generated this poison literally out of nowhere, manipulating the sphere and throwing it right into the face of Agate!

SPLASH!

"UNNGGGAAAAAGGHH…!"

Agate felt the corrosive poison hit her face and enter her open mouth!

The burning poison began to quickly make her entire skin burn horribly!

She felt as her very flesh started to slowly… melt!

Her eyes which were open through this suffered an even more horrible fate, as the pain of having her eyes burn through the acidic substance was so terrible that it felt like having one hundred nails piercing her eyes.

Agate screamed in agony as she fell over the ground, her mind was fuzzy due to the constant pain, and her mouth and throat began to melt away as well, slowly, but incredibly painfully.

"AAGGAAAGGHH…!"

Agate began to run away from Arthur as she quickly grabbed a Potion from her Dimensional Storage Ring, her arms slowly moved them inside of her mouth as she trembled in agony, her skin had already burned and melted and the red flesh and blood from within were shrouding her clothes with a horrible smell of decomposition.

However, before Agate could feel the refreshing potion enter her throat, the bottle disappeared from her hand.

"This Potion… it costs a lot, I can already see that your family is richer than mine… Well, I don\'t think you\'ll need it," said Arthur, generating another sphere of poison over Agate\'s face.

"A-Aaaahhh… Please… haavee… mmeerrshcyy…" cried Agate.

"Mercy…? Yes, I shall mercifully kill you now and make you stop suffering, it is the best I could do," said Arthur, with a cold expression, as Agate\'s eyes which could barely be seen after being covered in poison despaired!

SPLASH!

"NNNNGAAAAAAGGGHH…!"

Agate began to scream in agony as Arthur made her swallow a whole sphere of poison, her entire body began to convulse like a little rat that was bitten by a poisonous snake, struggling for her last seconds of life as her heart slowly stopped beating, her brain suddenly stopped thinking, and her entire self was engulfed by everlasting darkness…

Arthur sighed in relief.

"I guess that wasn\'t so merciful…" he thought, glancing at the fast-paced battle between Noah and Amber unfold.

BOOM! CLASH! FLASH! CRASH! SLASH!

Two flashes of crimson red and golden amber colors clashed against each other!

Unleashing their powerful long-ranged attacks, explosions of crimson red and yellow gold lights emerged all over the palace, shaking the entire manor constantly!

Noah smiled with excitement as he waved his hands, conjuring Blood Weapon Creation and Elemental Blood Gem together, generating enormous weapons of elemental blood gems, covered in crimson flames, purple ice, and dark winds!

The flying weapons flashed towards Amber, as the B-Rank Hunter gritted her teeth in desperation and blind wrath, generating giant boulders of yellow gold jewels covered in light, firing them against Noah\'s elemental blood gem weapons!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

More explosions ensued, generating dozens of shockwaves that made the entire manor tremble once more!

If it were not because Noah was using Crimson Aegis over the entire manor by molding blood barriers and sticking them to the pillars, walls, floor, and ceilings of the place, the entire manor would fall apart at this point.

It was also thanks to the many Magic Crystals and other Magic Materials harvested in low-ranked dungeons by his Blood Servants and Robots, which feed with more mana to the barriers of phantasmal blood, letting them regenerate constantly.

BOOM!

Noah\'s crimson claws which were covered in elemental blood gems clashed against Amber\'s jewel spear, generating another loud shockwave!

Amber began to pour her mana into the attack, unleashing a powerful blast of light!

"DIEE!" she roared in wrath, as Noah was engulfed in burning light!

"It will take more than that to kill me, you know?" laughed Noah, as he generated an enormous barrier of elemental gems and materialized blood, resisting the powerful attack of a fellow B-Rank!

BOOOM!
