Will of chaos

517 Cap 515: Alexandre Kadra part 5(Chapter preview)

I take a step back and let Vanessa get closer to the former King Alexander, she stands by the bed and her red wings appear.

"You will not be judged by me but by the Goddess, your judgment will not be to find out about your guilt or innocence, it will only be to judge your punishment."  (I)

Vanessa clasps her hands and closes her eyes as she begins her prayer, her every word making her Aura become stronger and different as if there is something merging with her.

"I pray to the one who has control over life and death.

I pray to the one who walks through oceans of blood to bring death to those who dare to go against her.

I pray to the one whose name is a symbol of dominion and freedom." (Vanessa)

"Make this servant's words her words so that the buried truth will be revealed.

Make this servant's power the blade that will bring terror to your enemies.

Make this servant's body the receptacle for her will in this world." (Vanessa)

"O Blood Goddess Selene, may at the utterance of her name the skies become red and may this servant be bestowed with your blessings to bring judgment upon her enemies."  (Vanessa)

Vanessa's Aura converges to the top of her head where it becomes a floating red halo, her own presence is completely different and I can feel the Goddess Selene's Blessing within me stir.

Soon Vanessa opens her eyes to face Alexandre on the bed, he had a look of resignation in his eyes.

"<May this servant's body become her temple and convey her will.>" (Vanessa)

Vanessa's eyes began to glow a bright red and her presence completely transformed, this wasn't Vanessa's presence, but it was still a presence I recognize even though it's much weaker now.

"<May your life come to an end and be reborn as my hunter, bring damnation to anyone who breaks a Taboo of mine as you once did.>" (Vanessa)

The Goddess Selene has begun to speak in her own voice through Vanessa's mouth, so she raises her hand and a red energy rips apart Alexander's body before using those pieces to create a flow of blood creating a new body for Alexander.

This bloodthirsty scene surprised me a lot, I must say I was shocked at how it was done in such a normal way and how a new body was created with the remains of the first one.

Alexander's new body was that of a bald man with red skin, golden eyes, and a black crown mark chained to his chest.

As soon as he opened his eyes the space opened up behind him sucking him in before closing it all happened in the space of 10 seconds it was too quick and disturbing for me to comprehend what happened before Vanessa started to fall forward as she walked back to normal.

When I grabbed Vanessa to keep her from falling, I noticed she was bleeding from her eyes, nose, and ears.

"< Heal > ×3" (I)

She was pale and had lost consciousness, I take a healing potion and make her drink it while using healing magic I learned from Irina.

"Is she okay, master?"  (Sakura)

"She's fine, but I'm not sure what's going on."  (I)

"I know what's going on, but this isn't a good place to talk about it, master."  (Ragnar)

"Then let's go, we've done what we had to do."  (I)

I hold Vanessa in my arms and walk towards the shadow we came from which was still in the same spot.

"Can I let him go?"  (Ragnar)

"Yes, he won't do anything, he knows it will only make things worse, besides being an obvious death."  (I)

Ragnar lets go of the armored guy's shoulder, he looks at us with hatred for a second, but he doesn't attack us, what he does is walk over to the bed where there are some stains of Alexandre's blood.

"He paid for his crime, his punishment was worse than death, but now it's over, just be glad he was punishment."  (Ragnar)

I keep walking into the shadow with everyone following close behind, the man in the armor doesn't say anything and just keeps looking at the bed as we go back into the shadow and leave the same way we came in.

------------

When we arrive at the Dungeon in the middle of the night, I go straight to my room and put Vanessa to bed, the others have gone off to do their own thing, but I've brought Ragnar with me.

I grab a cloth that I soak in some water to wipe the blood off Vanessa's face as I strike up a conversation with Ragnar.

"What happened to Vanessa?"  (I)

"A reaction to the Blood Goddess's will, a mortal body cannot withstand something like this for long, especially when a trace of divine power runs through its body."  (Ragnar)

"So it was a divine power that did that to Alexander?"  (I)

"Yes, only divine power can kill and reincarnate someone so quickly, but that was only possible because the situation allowed it."  (Ragnar)

"Vanessa also only resisted due to her body and race being very compatible with divine power, in addition to being an almost Saint."  (Ragnar)

"The Goddess knew exactly how much her body would be able to take without doing any permanent damage."  (Ragnar)

"But still she ended up this way."  (I)

"From what I understand she asked for it, she was the one who called the Goddess of Blood and not the other way around."  (Ragnar)

"..." (I)

Sigh

I know she was the one who called the Goddess, she made it very clear that the Goddess Selene would judge the old King Alexander, she said that many times, I just didn't think she would call the Goddess that way.

"What happened to Alexander?"  (I)

"He became a Taboo hunter."  (Ragnar)

"What would that be?"  (I)

"This is a fate worse than death, they are immortal beings who hunt those who break a Taboo regarding their God, death for them only brings another start where a new body will be created, the only true way to kill one of them is to destroy the soul."  (Ragnar)

"They don't eat, rest, feel pain or anything else, they just keep hunting for eternity."  (Ragnar)
