Chapter 93: Sea Of Blood
Lying on the chair, Lena's eyes narrowed at Blake's words but then when the flaming chariot appeared her eyes widened.
"No way" thought the woman as she quickly pushed herself off the chair and jumped away, wishing to dodge the chariots while also putting distance between her and Blake but just as her feet touched the bright brown sand on the ground and moved to push her further away from Blake, everything froze.
From the chariots which had just crashed into her last position and began exploding to the grains of sand and flames that were rising into the air, everything was paused in time, well except a huge grey-skinned demon who silently walked and stood in front of Lena, her head barely reaching his chest.
Lena looked up at this figure in trepidation, the calm eyes with which he stared down at her serving to raise her panic, as she tried and continuously failed to gain any semblance of control over this space which should be her soul space, a place saturated with her soul essences.
Lena was still stuck trying to understand the unbelievable, when the world around transformed and in an instant, she found herself kneeling down on a high platform which looked down at a turbulent blood sea, her hands cuffed by long blood-red chains which pulled them to either side.
Ignoring the roars of the sea waves behind her and the eerily red moon that hung in the sky, Lena looked at the chain that stretched from the shackle around her neck, her gaze following the chain till it landed on the naked man who held its other ending, his frame seated on a mighty red throne covered with the faces of people that were letting out shrieks that while loud still sounded faint to her.
From the sides of the throne, blood flowed out of the eyes of these screaming faces the blood dripping down to the floor and falling into the sea.
"I see you're taking to this new bloodline of yours like a fish to the sea," Lena said.
To her words, Blake pulled on her leash, forcing her figure to crawl several steps forward and come face to face with his soft limp cock which she had been trying to avoid looking at.
"I'm surprised you haven't started sucking it," Blake said.
"Seems you still haven't gotten the memo that I'm not Lena. I am a wraith that possessed Lena from the day she was born and has been dormant in her for several years only becoming active after you ended her life."
"Those are nice words, but they are all lies since I know the truth."
"Really, and what truth would that be"
"That you are truly Lana Olak and that is because you somehow got yourself to be reincarnated and be born a human."
"Now that's a story I haven't heard, where did you hear it" Lena asked with a chuckle.
Leaning forward, Blake answered Lena.
"When you were reincarnated, you became bound to this body and though your memories and soul strength are just returning, your body still remains that of a weak human and considering your soul is still thoroughly bound to it, we can both guess what would happen if I were to destroy it."
"Do you think I will die?"
"No, you will survive, but the problem now is, at what cost? I heard a few stories about you marrying powerful leaders and then ruining them, and I can't help but think you have a reason for doing this while also suspecting that your soul strength has had a major hand in your successful seductions.
I wonder how much more capable you will be with the injuries your soul will suffer after it is forcefully ripped out of its shell."
While Blake said this, he set the entire soul space ablaze hoping this would damage her soul.
**** End split consciousness ****
Though Blake had no idea if it made a difference, while he was within Lena's soul space, he set the world on fire, his mind taking on a thought that wished for the entire space to collapse.
Blake sought to damage the woman's soul as much as possible and before even his split consciousness returned to him, he tightened his grip on Lena's neck and executed another of his bloodline abilities.
[Blood drain]
Amongst Blake's abilities, there was one that he felt was passively active, and that was blood-potent.
When Blake had held Rehabab he had felt the powerful volumes of vitality swimming within the demon and it was then that he had come to realize that it wasn't that Rehabab didn't have blood but that his blood contained vitality and energy too powerful for him to remotely tamper with.
It was only when he was in contact with the demon's skin that he could influence it.
As for Lena, Blake hadn't been paying her any attention, but after grabbing her neck for several seconds, Blake had come to be able to easily feel the bright mobile vitality within her and those of every living thing around him.
It was like his one time with Lena was the key to unlocking his blood-sensing ability, then again it might have been Rehabab who did but Blake had been too worried about Lean to notice that he had this ability.
Now as Blake activated Blood drain, he latched onto this mobile vitality within her and pulled, silently watching as the woman's face and body rapidly sunk as if all the fats and meat were magically disappearing from within her.
[Ding! Blood drain active +3 vitality]
[Ding! Blood drain active +6 vitality]
[Ding! Blood drain active +4 vitality]
The appearance and content of this message stunned Blake, but he had too much at stake at the moment to begin getting lost in the excitement of what this blood drain technique could do.
Soon Lena opened her eyes, her consciousness returning but all she could do was hatefully stare at Blake as he killed off her body by turning it into fuel for himself while also damaging her soul.
Staring Into Lena's eyes which wanted to burn a hole into him, Blake watched life slowly leave the woman, and then an angry powerful presence descended on the entire area, Lena unleashing her entire might.
"Slowly, a white translucent figure began rising out of her body, but Blake turned away from this figure and instead looked to the left where a horrifying-looking wraith with dirtied cloth and a gaping wound in its chest screamed as it forced itself past a wall of lightening it had encountered.
Uncaring for the damage it did to itself, the translucent figure pushed herself to go through, her figure beginning to shimmer past it and almost going past when a woman with red eyes and a miserable-looking golden armor appeared before her and slashed down her sword, her sword glowing a bright light and sending the translucent figure horribly screaming and retreating backwards, and then just a second later it heard two dreadful words.
"Soul mark"
[Soul mark: Take control of the body and soul by giving commands. Unfortunately, these commands can only control the target for a limited time before they have to be renewed.]
