GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?



Xigger asked in shock, "How are you so strong?"

Sauron's beast form grinned. It was a feral grin that showed his teeth. All his teeth are sharp canines meant for tearing and only tearing. They sparked like white pearls in his mouth. So his grin sent chills through Xigger.

Sauron replied, "You're not the only one that progressed over the years. I have also grown. Though your progress is disappointing."

He paused to sneer and said, "You look like an emperor but you are not an Emperor at all. You have forsaken what makes us Paragons. You are a disappointment to your race. I will show you the error of your ways. You will not be able to escape today."

Then Sauron pounced on Xigger. Xigger gave up immediately. He turned to run but it was futile. Sauron caught him quickly and tore into him with his teeth. Xigger was meat and Sauron has many canines. Sauron introduced his teeth to the meat that Xigger is and the expected outcome occurred. Xigger was torn apart. It wasn't a fight, or a brawl, or a tussle. It was a one-sided beating.

It was a beating carried out without an ounce of respect from Sauron. A mana entity dished out disrespectful violence onto a transcendent. He tore Xigger apart limb from limb, again and again, no matter how Xigger regenerated or screamed in pain. 

And Xigger did scream. He screamed at the top of his lungs. It was as if he was being raped. The pain he felt as his existence was violated was too much for him to keep quiet about. Sauron's teeth latched onto his body and ripped it to pieces. Those pieces of his body came together and became whole once again. Only for Sauron to rip them anew. 

And Sauron enjoyed it. He growled and roared in excitement as he demolished his prey. He experienced a feral glee. It is a vestigial effect from the glorious days when Warrogs gained pleasure from violence. Pleasure thrummed through his body in waves. All he wants to do at this point is to rip and tear Xigger forever.

Ragnarok commented, "So shameful."

The cry that Xigger made is shameful for an ancestral vampire to make. He has never met an ancestral vampire. They are very rare and highly respected. But most vampires that are not mad are refined and dignified. It is because they were formerly elves. 

Xigger somehow became a vampire but he is putting the race of vampires to shame. No elegant person should scream like that. Xigger ought to bear the pain and suffering like a noble. Instead, he is screaming like some maiden being violated. That makes two races that he is putting to shame. The Vampires and the Warrogs.

"So he is not a paragon anymore," Ragnarok observed with disappointment. 

Xigger called himself an Emperor earlier. He was wrong to call himself that. The fact that he was a Warrog and now a transcendent doesn't make him an Emperor. He has become affiliated with death and blood while Emperors need a connection to life. So Xigger doesn't have any external boost to himself while Sauron with his boost is able to trounce him as a Mana entity.

Ragnarok wasn't surprised by the outcome of the fight. He was only disappointed. Mana entities have stats between 200 to 1000 while transcendents have stats between 10,000 and 100,000. That means that Xigger is at most 100,000 on a single stat. 

Xigger's stats are probably lower than that since he is a young ancestral vampire while Sauron has at least 100,000 because of his 10,000% boost. The boost is just the lowest estimate he gave Sauron. If Sauron had a boost a boost of 10,000% and was also a transcendent, then he would be able to swallow Xigger with one bite. That is the power of a true Emperor. 

Ragnarok wasn't the only one to watch the fight. Many Warrogs were alarmed by the screams so they came to watch the show. A crowd formed at the wall of the settlement. They witnessed the debauchery that occurred and they cheered for their pack leader. No one cheered for Xigger. Not even his son. 

The regenerative properties of an ancestral vampire worked against Xigger. He didn't die when his head was crushed. Not even when his head was cut off. He had to be killed again and again before he ran out of blood to regenerate with. His pain was unending.

Sauron finally killed him after a lengthy session of chopping him up. Xigger turned into ashes and was scattered into the wind. Sauron transformed back into his humanoid form. His body shed mana like putting off a robe. It was to make him lose the body mass he gained when he transformed into his beast form. He assumed his tall and dashing figure again. You wouldn't suspect that he is capable of turning into a beast.

Sauron spat on the ashes. He said with a sneer, "What a loser."

He is actually shocked and surprised by the vitality that Xigger showed. He has never seen something like that. But he can't display fear in front of his pack.

He thought to himself in relief, "Besides, there is nothing more to worry about. He is already dead."

Then he returned to his peak. He flew up the mountain and away. That marked the end of the fight. 

But Ragnarok didn't think so. He shook his head and said, "This is far from over."

They say, when it rains it pours. It is either that this event is a simple and isolated event or it means something more. If it means something more, then the woes of the Iron Fur pack are not over. Things are just getting started.

He looked at the moon again and sighed. "It turns out that the Iron Nail pack is not the only current obstacle and the wood elves are not the only source of trouble in the plane."
