Chapter 1069 The End Of The Way.
Danah continued to attack him until the sun came up. Then her power waned. Her white wings practically withered. The red eyes on them shrunk to become dry and shriveled. The tide of spiritual power stuttered and shrunk. Then it became a trickle that could manage more than a tickle on his existence.
It was then that Ragnarok turned to her. He had his head in his hands. The cracks on his body made it obvious to her that a single hit and he would be destroyed. Salvation is but a step away from her. So it was with dismay that she watched as those cracks healed.
Ragnarok's rigid face relaxed. The mind-racking migraine finally waned.
He let go of his head to look at her. "It is my turn now. I am speaking the truth now. I promise to make this as painful as possible."
First, he ejected the Ghoul from his domain. He doesn't need it anymore now that the sun is up. The demon god can't descend anymore. He also doesn't want the Ghoul to take advantage of the weakened state of the Primogenitor and steal what is rightfully his. Then he got to work Danah. He promised her pain. He will deliver on it.
It was sometime during the afternoon that he finished with Danah. He decided to be this early only because he had more things to do during the daytime. There are other Primogenitors to kill and the day is the best time for him to hunt so he removed his domain and returned to the world.
Danah's city has become ravaged by the time he reappeared. Ghouls had turned the place upside down in their hunt for Vampires. Most of the powerful Vampires had gone to the surface but some remained behind because of ignorance. They became the food for ghouls.
He looked at the sorry state of the Vampires and consoled them slightly. "If it helps, Danah and those that escaped are not doing so well either."
A lot of the Dukes died along the way to the surface but some of them reached the surface. The ones that survived had to hide somewhere to rest during the day. They planned to resume their trip when night fell. Unfortunately for them, none of them will wake up again. They turned into a pool of blood in their sleep a few seconds ago.
Danah's death caused an emptiness to appear in the population of Vampires. Every vampire in her lineage and every familiar bonded to those Vampires died along with their Primogenitor. That is the death of almost a hundred million entities instantly.
He said proudly. "Here I am, doing my best to help the plane. What is Rinoz doing now I wonder?"
He thought of Rinoz briefly because he still had the intention to kill her. Then he put her aside to think about his next steps. The first thing he looked out for was the particular ghoul that he lured over to Danah and kicked out of his domain. He can't find the ghoul anymore.
The ghoul had wandered away and had changed targets to other Vampires so he didn't see it when he returned to the world.
He shrugged to himself. "If there is one thing that this plane doesn't lack right now, it is ghouls. I can always find another ghoul."
Then he scanned the plane for his favorite targets and what he saw made him smile. "This is good. It seems they got my warning. I should pick off the ones that I can now."
The Primogenitors now know that he is working with the ghouls in more ways than a madman should. Their plan to sacrifice one of themselves to eliminate him won't work anymore.
Staying in their territory also won't work since Ragnarok is crazy enough to actually let a ghoul lock onto him. He will just lead more Ghouls to their territories and let those abominations attach to them. Then he will kill them.
They decided to escape to the surface before he came after them. So most of them are on the surface right now. It is also currently daytime. These are perfect conditions for a hunt.
"Good. Very good. They are vulnerable and ripe for the taking. That's how I like them." He said in excitement.
Then he hurried off to the surface. He thought of the demon god and he couldn't help but grin. He expects the demon god to be fuming right now. It is because CARNAGE must absolutely hate what he is doing. What he is doing is not much but it is honest work. CARNAGE hates honesty hence the anger.
His eyes of life that he gained from consuming the heart of Carnage helped him lock onto their positions. They can run but they can never hide. He planned a straight path to the closest one and went directly for it.
He saw a lot of destruction along the way. The Ghouls have torn the Underdark apart. They have created new tunnels everywhere in search of their targets. They ignored him while they killed every Vampire that they sensed or had a lock on.
He smiled when he considered the suffering of the Vampires. It is the fulfillment of a promise that he made to the demon god. He promised to be a thorn to the Vampires but this is turning out better than he expected.
It encouraged him to continue getting stronger so that he could damage them more but it is not his major motivation. He is not afraid of death. He will be satisfied as long as his life brings fruitful results to Legion. That is his greatest motivation.
He is the only paragon among the clones of Legion and his POWER stat is providing information to Legion about the shards of power. After all, the POWER stat is an external force that amplifies power in various ways much like the way the shard of power does.
