Final Memories - First Throne
← Ch.083 | Ch.085 → |
The moment his heart has been taken out, Xue Ren found himself out in his throne room.
Right now, he couldn't see anything else other than red vampire aura rampaging throughout the throne room.
Still, he has just experienced the most painful moment in his life. Xue Ren placed his hand on his chest to check if he has heart. However, his spirit was in perfect state, thus, he obviously has no wounds...
Even so, his eyes began to tremble with fear as the sweat began to appear on his body. Cold sweat that meant the scariest feeling...
'Death... Am I going to die?'
Such question evoked a lot of emotions inside his mind. From sadness to regret, from regret to grief. Then the young man noticed the movement of red aura... red aura moved by itself and coming out from it was Endrun...
Behind him, the throne he usually was sitting was now completely red and beating as if heart... Seeing Xue Ren who was experiencing a lot of sad emotions right now, Endrun faintly smiled. After all, he is just going to add another sad memory...
"This is farewell, Ren."
"What?"
Endrun wanted to hug this little kid in front of him. Seeing his sad face filled with worry, he had such desires like maybe he would find another way to save Xue Ren and stay with him forever...
'How stupid... I am already dead. '
Endrun shook his head with faint smile. Then, he knelt before Xue Ren. In the end, he was servant... While kneeling, he loudly said...
"It's been an honor to serve a divinity."
"Endrun..."
"Do you remember 'last wish'?"
Xue Ren nodded. After all, Endrun was spirit, thus, as the living being, Xue Ren wanted to grant a wish...
"Conquer her."
With those words, Endrun's whole body began to materialize into red vampire aura that went forward to Xue Ren, coiling around him... Endrun's throne followed this aura as it changed as well into current of red aura.
Crack! In the sky, enormous crack appeared. As if the greatest sworsdman waved his sword, the crack opened by itself and released tremendous amount of red, vampire aura which coiled around Xue Ren making a coccon!
The coccon was like Endrun's throne beating like a heart, loudly and violently.
Both spirit and body were in this coccon!
Inside this coccon, Xue Ren body was changing. The hole on his chest was slowly repairing itself as the new heart was being under the creation. His skin was becoming more pale and his teeth even longer. Under the shower of vampire energy, his height got little increase and whole body got more muscular as well.
"Arghhhh!"
And his body roared as if experiencing the immense pain. It was because Xue Ren was right now, reminiscing about Endrun's past.
The final memories...
With the hand that pierced his chest, Endrun was looking at the Maria expressionlessly. It was similar situation to that of Xue Ren. Before this incident, he has confessed his love and showed his Blood Art. Amazing the princess, Endrun was sure that he might win her heart, but...
Soon, Maria's face became mix of sadness and anger. Sadness, because of Endrun. Anger, because of her father... The king.
The one who has penetrated through the servant's chest was the father of Maria and Vampire King, Achrone V. Chrysan. He has come to her castle due to rumors that have been appearing in the noble circle.
Princess Maria is a slut...
Princess Maria has sex toy...
Princess Maria is a bitch who plays with servants...
And so on... Hearing all of this, Vampire King became enraged. As he arrived in her castle, he witnessed the moment of Endrun's blood art and confession...
Jealousy... such emotions immediately took over the vampire king as he was looking at the servant with low quality blood. As the king, he has tried a lot of times to create a new path for vampires. To move to higher worlds, Achrone has sacrificed a lot of his long live for such purpose.
In the end, he has failed as no matter how long he tried to create something new, everything still ended in vain. Then, the only way for him was to give a birth to strong prodigies... In hope that his offsprings would be able to reach the Divine Gates and lead the vampire race to higher realms.
So there was no way he would feel something else other than jealousy. Then, seeing his confession and that the servant actually possess some of Maria's blood, the vampire king moved...
and killed Endrun...
The servant quickly fallen as the blood coming out from his chest made a pool under him. Soon, the coldness began to spread out throughout his body.. starting from his chest, the immense coldness began its rampage...
Seeing his hand in blood slowly losing its feeling, Endrun turned his eyes to Maria as he muttered slowly with the last strenght he could muster...
"Mo... ther..."
"!"
It all began with the desire to create a place for himself and his mother. For her, he worked hard so they both could enjoy a live without stress and hard work. So that she would forget everything she has experienced with the new life he hoped to create...
Then, the cold voice of the king rang out...
"Give me his technique."
The technqiue that highly relied on blood and vampire aura. Such beautiful and strong technique shouldn't be in servant's hand according to Achrone. He extended his hand with meaning 'hand over it immediately' as he released his vampire aura...
The earth trembled upon such powerful aura. Maria trembled as well as she saw the stern and serious look of her father. His eyes told her that he would even kill her if she didn't pass down this technique...
Still...
"I refuse."
She refused and stood up releasing her own vampire aura. Maria is one of the first princesses, thus, her age and density of aura is quite high. She definitely would be a tough opponent even for the king.
Achrone cracked his hands as he stepped forward. As he went forward, his aura followed. It went forward clashing with Maria's red aura making a tornado around them. Sparks and loud explosions erupted notifing a lot of noble vampires around them...
As the parent and child were looking at themselves with quite similar red eyes, Edrun sent his mind transmission to Maria...
'Give it to him. In exchange, I want you to take care of my mother. '
His mind was slowly disappearing, thus, he didn't have time to wait for the conclusion of their battle. Sending his mind transmission, Endrun's body on its own muttered the word...
"Mo.. ther."
Such strong feelings... Tears filled her eyes as she saw Endrun like that. Compared to her feelings towards her family, Endrun's love for his mother was warm and kind. As she put her soft hand on his cheek, the coldness attacked her.
His whole dying body was in completely opposite state to his feelings. Maria sent her vampire aura to her father with the Blood Art. As soon as he received it, Achrone disappeared. It was also last time he saw his daughter ever again.
Just like that, Maria was holding Endrun's cheek with her warm hand on his cold skin. The young servant's last memory was her tears flowing down her cheeks...
'My life hasn't ended in vain. '
He has seen one of the most beautiful princess crying for him after all. Also with his death, his mother should be probably treated better as Maria will take her under her wing... Just like that, Endrun face unconsciously turned into a smile one as he died...
"Arghhhhhhhh!"
And Xue Ren roared as he felt everything...
