Chapter 137: Memory Fragment
In the Vampire Building
Both sisters stood together, their expressions full of joy as they hugged each other. Draco chuckled, sitting on a cushioned chair, watching both of them.
They had been at it for a few minutes, chattering with each other. After a while, Draco asked Jane to excuse them; he wanted to awaken the Shadow Demon.
Jane agreed. She trusted Draco, knowing he wouldn't harm her. He had saved her and made an enemy of the Night Clan.
"Xylara, are you ready?" Draco called out to her. She was the one who knew how to awaken the Seat of Demon.
Xylara appeared beside Draco, nodding. She moved her hands quickly, forming a hand seal. The seal shrank in size and entered Clara's forehead.
Ding!
[You have awakened the Shadow Demon]
This was what Draco heard before he blacked out. It was faster than before. When he had awakened the others, the memory fragments had only appeared after he slept. But this time, it forced him into unconsciousness.
"Xandros, before we begin, we have a gift for you," Alex chuckled.
A massive fox's head, dripping blood, appeared in the air. Its lifeless eyes stared blankly, and each drop of blood that touched the ground burned holes into it.
Unconsciously, everyone knelt under the overwhelming pressure emanating from Xandros. His killing intent materialized, sending shivers even through Alex.
The head disappeared from Alex's hand, appearing in Xandros's grasp. His gaze turned gentle yet sad as he touched the fox's head.
"It's true," he murmured.
Then, that gentle expression vanished, replaced by a cold killing intent.
"I think it's time to eliminate the scourge of this world," Xandros said as both sides prepared for battle.
A battle to the death.
"ATTACK!"
All beings moved—the undead, ghosts, golden angels, dark angels, elves, shadows, vampires, succubi, humans, and dragons.
Every creature roared as the world and domain shook. War had begun.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Universal roars echoed as planets were destroyed in the clash between these two sides.
Dragons fought dragons, angels fought angels, elves fought elves, and phoenixes fought phoenixes.
This was a battle to determine who would become the dominant race and the leader of the world.
"Xandros, your reign ends here," an old man with twelve pairs of wings declared.
"Alex, you aren't enough to beat me. Call Void or Chaos—those are my opponents," Xandros snickered.
Alex didn't refute this, which was surprising. "I know. That's why I'm not the only one fighting you."
As Alex spoke, crowds of gods appeared behind him.
Xandros chuckled at the sight. Each of the gods behind Alex was a hegemon in the God Domain.
The God Domain is a transcendent universe where gods reside. It consists of sub-domains: the Deity Domain, where humans live; the Demon Domain, for demons; the Volkoid Domain, where Volkoids live; the Angelic Domain, where angels dwell; the Elf Domain; the Draconic Domain; the Phoenix Domain, and more.
All these domains form the God Domain. Each domain is a universe of its own, far larger than smaller worlds like Cerulean.
"Should I say I'm truly honored to be besieged by other domain gods?" Xandros grinned.
The other gods simply stared at him. Their mission was clear: to eliminate the Plunderer.
All domains in the God Domain had joined hands to eliminate the Demonic Domain. The Demon Domain was vast—many would say it was the largest of all domains.
As for why this was so, no one had an answer. Even the deities sought to uncover the reason.
The Demon Domain's strength had grown too powerful, making many wary. The combined forces were determined to erase it from the face of the universe.
"If you want to battle Master, then you have to pass through me," one of the Ten, who stood behind Xandros, stepped forward.
His features were concealed. The only visible aspects were his black hair, black horns, and scales emitting a demonic aura.
"Hmph, Drakon, don't be so proud. It's time to show the universe that there is only one Dragon Clan."
Someone stepped out from the crowd of gods. He had golden hair, golden horns, and golden scales, his features similarly concealed.
"You alone aren't enough to battle me. And yes, it's time to show the universe that there is only one Dragon Clan," Drakon roared.
Each of the Ten stepped forward, Xandros standing behind them. Their intentions were clear: no one would reach Xandros without first defeating them.
"There's no need for this. You Ten can't battle them all. Don't forget—they are hegemons in their own domains," Xandros said, chuckling as he stood side by side with the Ten Seats of Demon.
It was as if time had frozen. Each side glared at the other, the tension building. Meanwhile, their subordinates had already begun fighting. It was time for the leaders to engage. Your next chapter awaits on empire
SWOOSH! CLANG! BOOM!
The battle began. The speed and ferocity of their movements were unimaginable. No one could see the deities' figures—only the sounds of clashing weapons, worlds exploding, and cracks spreading across the sky.
It felt as if doomsday had arrived.
Five deities took on each of the Seats of Demon in battle. As for Xandros, twelve of them faced him.
"Water God, Light God, Fire God, Wind God, Sword God, Wood Goddess, Fist God, Bow Goddess, Thunder God, Earth God, Metal God, Spear God—what an honor to battle you all," Xandros chuckled. Despite the sheer number of deities present, he wasn't flustered. His expression remained neutral.
"Oh, there's one more person missing. Where is the Dark God?" Xandros asked.
"Hmph, he didn't want to participate in this, so he's not needed," Alex replied.
"Blum, Sharon, Daniel... I never thought we'd have to fight against each other," Xandros smiled, looking at the Thunder God, Fire God, and Wood Goddess.
"You've transgressed the balance of each domain," Blum, the Thunder God, said sternly.
"This isn't like you, guys," Xandros said bitterly.
"Stop talking and fight with your fists!" Daniel, the Fire God, shouted.
"Don't waste your time, Xandros. We were naive back then. Now, we see through their cunning and wickedness. It's time to purge you from the world," Sharon, the Wood Goddess, declared.
Xandros looked at them and sighed. Even though they weren't that close, their relationship had once been good—perhaps even friendly. This was before he became as powerful as he was now. Yet, even after his rise, their bond had remained intact for some time.
"What did you do to them?" Xandros asked Alex, who stood at the center of the gods.
"I didn't do anything to them. Their eyes were opened," Alex replied.
Xandros sighed again, his gaze returning to his former comrades.
"If it's a battle you want, let's fight," he said. Black-red demonic horns sprouted from his body, his wings unfurled, and all Origin Energy flowed toward him as he began plundering it.
The gods also transformed, each reaching their peak strength as they prepared to face Xandros. Even with their numbers, they weren't sure they could eliminate this monster.
"HAAAAAH!"
"HAAAAAH!"
"HAAAAAH!"
