If there was one thing that was working out well for the Dombivili lordship, it was the sheer amount of gold and loot that they had managed to plunder from the ice dungeon. Although the death of Lucius Aurelius was a big blow for Max who had big contracts with the guy, he was also lucky enough to have the money to bankroll the projects without Lucius as well. Whether it was re-fitting the army with better gear, or procuring new battleships and defence systems, Max spared no expense in the military…

( A fortnight later ) Asiva was expected to deliver the baby this week and the nursemaids and the medical staff were on standby as she could go into labour any minute now. Max no longer left the palace in fear of not being there for Asiva when she needed him and mostly worked from his office within the palace chambers. It was just a regular day for him, as he was going over the latest crime report papers and some documents regarding new infrastructure projects when suddenly Sebastian burst into…

( A commoner in Dombivli, A month after the fall of Ixtal ) " It happened again! Dracula struck again! Out of nowhere- he, he, he destroyed two planets under the Dayzi clan, it was the bigger planets that they had under their rule as well. 100 million? 200 million vampires must be living on each of those planets….. That monster!!!!! just how many did he massacre in a day? " The commoner screamed as he began shivering violently. The fall of two planets was the headline news of the day as while…

( The council room with the usual gang and ministers ) " We need to prepare for war. It's not up for debate- , Dracula wants the literal extinction of the modern vampire race. It doesn't matter what planet you are on, if he's allowed to have his way there won't be a vampire society anymore " Max said as he strongly expressed his opinion regarding the future course of action. Uptil this point, not many things were known about Dracula, except the fact that he had a desire for the vampire throne and…

( Dombivli City, Capital of the Bloodfall clan) " It's been almost three days, still no updates on Max's whereabouts? " Asiva said with a deep frown on her face as her recently wed husband had gone missing in action once more. " I'm afraid not- nobody has seen him leave Ixtal, and there is no more Ixtal, but he's also a god who can withstand the cold temperatures so…. " Jathi said as he tried to make wild assumptions about the situation since he had no solid facts. " I knew we should not have…

The final treasure room was different from all others. There was no sparkling treasure inside the final room, there were no artefacts, no gemstones, no blueprints, there was absolutely nothing inside it actually, nothing except an expressionless Seraphiel standing across him. " I won all three rounds, correct? " Max asked just to be sure " Yes " Seraphiel replied as Max looked around to figure out if he was in the right room then. " So what's the reward? " Max asked, scratching his chin as he…

' Why can't I sense him? ' Max wondered as his body moved on its own under the influence of unstoppable assault, fighting subconsciously in what would be Max's peak condition. Every move that Seraphiel made, everytime he bruised and battered Max, it was like Max felt the direction from which the attacks were coming, he had an innate intuition about how things would proceed, but he could not act on it in time to do something constructive about it. ' This is frustrating as hell- , I just need to be a…

( Round 3 ) The moment Seraphiel shifted from 75% strength to full power, Max started to feel a reverse soul suppression in his own soul space. An invisible force seemed to be pushing him away from Seraphiel and all the support he was previously getting from his soul vessel that helped him cast his attacks faster and made them more potent seemed to be neutralised as he felt his body to be sluggish and found it difficult to circulate mana. " Is this your true power? " Max questioned as Seraphiel's…

( Max's POV ) " Are you prepared for round 2? " Seraphiel asked as Max looked at the inhuman being and panted, trying to catch his breath. " Will you mind if I ask for a moment? " Max asked as Seraphiel signalled to him that he may take as much time as he needed, which was a great relief. A constant barrage of attacks was very taxing to pull off, however, Max had literally stretched himself to the limit by trying to bombard an entire 2D plane covering roughly 1km^2 with high intensity shots.…

( Meanwhile Rudra and Odin's POV ) Rudra poured Odin a cup of hot tea with an amiable smile on his face. To the kids that were training outside, it appeared like their father was having an amiable conversation with the visitor, however, Odin himself was sweating profusely as despite the amiable expression, thick killing intent was being emitted by Rudra that made Odin suffocate. " Please, make yourself at home " Rudra said as he added exactly two cubes of sugar and began stirring the tea for Odin.…
