Alexander ignores the sounds of his sister fighting the arachnae and over a dozen other Class V demons at once inside of the building as he focuses on the blood lycan and her six Class V Nobles. The battle had been going relatively well for him, but something about the way the Marchioness has been blanking out recently tells him something unexpected and most likely Despite that, Alexander doesn’t feel all that much about it. He hasn’t felt that much at all since his run-in with the Lady of Devouring,…-

The Blood Lord stands at the edge of his room’s balcony inside of the Castle of Ruin, simply staring out over the edge of the floating island the castle is situated on at the vast ocean of blood beneath the duchy. The duchy itself is made up of hundreds of floating islands, each separated from one another with the only manner of transit between them being through flight, teleportation, or the single drawbridge connecting the major islands. And the Blood Lord has always felt pride over the duchy he has…

The tingling sensation and sensitivity grows stronger and stronger until just the simple fact of wearing my clothes is growing far more uncomfortable than anything I’ve ever felt before. No matter how much I try to run around. “Ta-ah,” I try to speak out loud, only for the sensitivity in my mouth and my throat to stop me. Tar, what the fuck is going on?! And how long is this going to take to go away?! Tar doesn’t say anything for a few seconds before eventually answering, Fucking hell! There…

Almost immediately, I let out a grunt as droplets of my own blood shoot out of me and through my clothes with ease before hovering in the air in between me and the arachne. Meanwhile the arachne just freezes in place after turning around, the hairs on its body quite literally standing up as it begins to back away from the random orb of my own blood. Interesting. The orb changes color slightly, taking on a black tone to it, as if the blood was corrupted somehow. Then it begins to spin. It does it rather…

After landing, I look down at my front to find a large gaping wound in my chest, right about where my collar bone is. But for some reason I don’t feel any pain. All I feel is weakness from it. And the random chunk of missing flesh itself has bits of purple coating it. Unfortunately it ends up taking me using blood sacrifice to be able to climb to my feet thanks to the weakness I feel spreading from the wound. But despite the weakness, I also notice the wound very slowly closing itself at a visible…

The arachne, although startled for a moment, rushes towards me as well, meeting me halfway with one of its bladed legs clashing directly with my claws. And unlike all of the attacks I shared with the taracht, I actually manage to hold my ground a little despite the level difference of about seventy levels between us. The spider’s strike pushes me back, my feet digging through the ground. Just the fact that I’m able to contend with it and not get completely wiped out in a physical confrontation goes…

I gape up at the man who is standing about five inches taller than myself before hearing the Noble demon land on the ground below. Black then tilts his head and asks, “No thank you? Well that’s disappointing.” That snaps me out of it, but he doesn’t give me the chance to say anything as he just moves up to me and scoops me up into a princess carry that has me blushing and says, “Well, we should run.” Then I learn in a rather unpleasant way how it feels to break the sound barrier, even if his…

None of us say anything for who knows how long. Did he… just do that? Wow. Allen and Cynthia both collapse onto the ground in exhaustion now that the fighting is over. And I almost join them. But right when the tentacle above us is about to move back over to the center of the city, a powerful wave of darkness cuts straight into it, seemingly disintegrating the tentacle as it turns to dust. And I only briefly hear Blue pause his battle, just for him to continue without sending any other tentacle over…

“We won’t let you take her, The creature vanishes in an instant, following which the purple light suddenly expands far faster than the two can hold back, engulfing us again and sending us to a very high placed roof before we can stop it. And along with the teleportation, I find myself dry heaving, all of my dinner having left me by now. Which isn’t a very good sign since part of my regeneration relies on my food stores. Not all of it. In fact, nowhere near all of it. But some of it at…

I can’t help but frown a little when both Allen and Cynthia walk into the Class II Fracture after me for some reason, the two having shown up practically out of nowhere. Why are they here? Could they know about what White said? “Don’t worry about us, dear,” Allen says with a light smile, “we won’t steal your prey.” I almost snort at that in amusement. Instead the corner of my lips quirk upwards a bit and I turn around to head towards the demons in this Fracture. All while explosions ring…
