Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 154: Prophecy never miss

"I want nothing... I am just interested in you and want to gain your favor."

She shrugged.

"I understand. But, what is the prophecy that you speak of?"

She placed her finger on his chin and drew her face closer as she tilted his head upward.

"A Black masked Egalitarian, Who sees everything impartially with his blind eye. will Stand at the Zenith. Losing everything he holds."

She said a few lines he could slightly decode what she was speaking of and the losing everything holds, Blind, Black mask seemed to be describing him. 

He had already seen such a vision holding the sky piercer facing two demigods and he believed he had tackled that.

This was the same prophecy he heard from Felishia. She gave him a simple one while Rosalie just described twisting her words.

"I have heard this before. Is this why you came here?"

He asked coldly.

"Fufu, I been observing you for a few days. When you struck a deal with Negatan. when you conquered the town. When you fought against the calamity... I was there in the shadows."

'Ain't this stalking?'

"How couldn't anyone notice you?"

"Hmm, I am a vampire and I possess some capabilities. I can hide my entity from anyone. We are an immortal race. We cannot go to the Ether world nor the underworld. Meaning our souls are bound to this vessel. If our body is destroyed our souls will also be destroyed."

'So they are more like humans on earth but the exception is immortality.'

He calculated while listening to her words.

"So, you could say that we are not bound by the notions of souls. Though we do possess it. You could say we are a cursed creature that's not bound by the cycle of death and birth. And as the beings that dwell in darkness.  To cover that lacking we have traits and abilities that help us survive."

"I understand but, why do you need my favor?"

He questioned.

"Anyway, From now on. We will be allies."

She said and kissed his cheek.

He blankly stared at her for a while and began talking.

"Why did you decide to meet me now of all time and offered me your blood? And lastly, who prophesied the future?"

"It is from the Omen of doom. Because you were busy most of the time and I cannot travel in the mornings. I was traveling in your shadow though."

He was reminded of the times he spent with Cinzia and the other girls and looked at her for answers.

"Hehe, I did not cross your private life."

She giggled.

{Haha, This woman is a menace!} Astaroth commented after laughing.

"Indeed" Nix nodded in agreement turning towards him.

"Huh?"

She furrowed her brows.

"It's nothing..."

He said and opened his room exit and walked out dragging her by her hand.

"This will be your room. Don't cause any trouble. I will meet you later on."

He said politely and left.

"Ookie dookie!"

She said and showed two fingers making a peace sign.

[Private Ability: Nova manifestation activated]

[New mission- Absorb her vitality to unlock class abilities]

He was unable to fathom what's happening but, his body suddenly began to lust over her blood. As his body began to starve he felt an extreme urge.

She looked at him with a smile as he bared his newly awakened fangs. He inherited a few of the vampire characteristics. Which occupied five percent of his human nature.

Nova manifestation had never let him down or led him to the path of destruction. He understood the intentions of the ability and began to pioneer it.

He pushed her on her bed and immediately began sucking her blood after biting her smooth pale white neck.

"Fufu, Are you that hungry for me?"

She smiled and caressed his head while moaning.

This was a certain phenomenon that happens to Vampires. But, unlike the lore, he has heard of. It was entirely different.

A vampire would crave human blood but, instead, Nix craved for Vampire's blood. This was certainly a reverse phenomenon and an unpredictable one. This was certainly Nova manifestation's work. 

This also gave Nix the idea that it was connected to the past Nix's desire or goal. 

After suckling for while he retracted his mouth wiping her blood off his face/

"I'll leave then."

He said and left the room as he felt dizzy.

Within a second a message flashed before him.

[You have absorbed new abilities]

"Tch, I can't catch a break."

He mumbled inwardly and laid in his bedroom entering his room.

He did not believe in her since he wanted to research more facts about Vampires to trust her. He was more concerned about the prophecy. He did know he prolonged the Prophecy. Was that perhaps just a milestone what was about to happen. Is he the one that induced the calamity that was about to befall him? 

He had several thoughts. lying inside his room and anticipating what he was supposed to do his mind was in literal chaos.

"Astaroth what do you think about Prophecy?"

{Prophecy, As of the spectators' Prediction?}

"Spectator's prediction?"

{I am speaking about, The omen of Doom, Yagavaran.}

"Yes."

{To speak honestly, if the Prophecy was sent by him. You cannot ever overpower it. If I have to say it bluntly, his prophecies never fail. He even prophesied my defeat.}

"I see... That doesn't mean I cannot stop it right?"

{Indeed, You can manipulate it you have the power to see the future.}

Nix just gave him a hideous smirk and opened his status. He had undergone several things and now he also gained a class that surely raised his hopes for the upcoming trails he'd be facing.

'Hmm, I've got four new class abilities that have already been unlocked... This is straight-up good news. Both stamina and strength have raised by one point. Nova manifestation has reached cosmic rank. Though I cannot point out what its uses are it's a good thing. Latent instinct has also risen by one rank... Guess I am making progress.'

He thought and smiled. 

It was not a waste considering the rewards he gained. Prime dust has certainly increased his potential and Nova manifestation. Cosmic gives out the hint that he had gained an ability rank that reaches the universal scale power. But, the only thing that continuously worried him was that three abilities were connected to each other.

If he wants to truly unravel its powers he'd have to firstly align everything into the same rank. It was hard and challenging but, if he were to succeed or at least make the ranks rise higher he'd be able to find clues and awaken his true potential.

'Prophecy never fails huh?'

He muttered and closed his eyes with anticipation to use the new abilities, he unlocked.

"Morning! Darlinnggg..."

A seductive whisper entered his ear.

'Ahh! Fuck!'

He cursed and opened his eyes and found Rosalie looking at him.

"Didn't I tell you to sleep in the next room."

"Awww, Don't be like that..."

She uttered and bit his ear.

He coldly looked at her and opened the window screen to let the sunlight inside the room.

She didn't even move and just laid there as the sunlight fell on her pale white skin with a smile on her face.

"Hehe, I lied to you about going under the sun."

She giggled as Nix looked at her in a daze.

He had a dazed look not because he was surprised by her immunity to walk in the sunlight. It was because his hair turned greyer than before yet there were several parts that were still black.

"Fufu are you surprised that your hair turned greyer than before?"

"Yeah..."

He uttered and began to rethink why Nova manifestation forced him to suck her blood.

'Dark Nix also absorbed vampires? '

Though he questioned himself. Though it was evident just from looking. That Dark Nix had absorbed several things which drifted him away from his human self.

"Why did you lie about unable to go under the sun?"

"Hehe, I wanted to see a surprising reaction from you."

"Fine, come with me..."

He said and dragged her out of his room.
