Reborn: Rise of the Greatest Summoner

"Is another beast coming out from inside it?"

"Is that…?"

Whoosh!

The beast finally broke out of its cocoon!

With one flap of its wings, it\'s skinny but muscular body levitated into the skies. This beast that appeared looked like a bat but it also looked like a human, literally all the hunters including Legolas recognized it immediately.

Their eyes widened. "A Blood Vampire!"

Time seemed to slow down as this dangerous Vampire levitated.

\'Enhanced Sense- Fear and Weakness Detected!\'

\'Special Blood Vampire Ability: Commandment!\'

The Blood Vampire activated both abilities in less than a second while still levitating in the air, spacetime seemed to slow down significantly, giving him a crazy edge over the humans as everything flowed faster before him.

The Enhanced Sense was a passive ability of the Blood Vampire, but the Commandment was a lethal ability that enabled them to manipulate emotions.

As soon as he detected fear and weakness, he commanded!

"I command that you become paralyzed with fear!"

The couple instantly became paralyzed!

"…!" The eyes of the 2 Elementalists remained pinned on the Blood Vampire.

A mixture of fear and anger alternated between their eyes. Memories flashed within their eyes, memories that they were reluctant to visit.

\'Noooo…!\'

\'Ahhh….!\'

\'Mommy…, save me!\'

\'Daddy, I don\'t want to die…, please!\'

Weak and vulnerable, they could only watch on that fateful day 20 years ago as their son was torn apart by the ruthless Vampire. Despite being willing to sacrifice their lives for their son\'s, the Vampire only had appetite for teenagers.

Since then, they had to live with the guilt of not being able to save their son and only child. Since then, they trained like maniacs with this trauma.

Fast-forward 20 years, they were now Grade D Elementalists, seasoned hunters of the Hunter Society yet they never got to outlive the trauma.

The sight of a Blood Vampire reminded them of this cruel truth.

They were still tormented daily by it.

They were still afraid of that fateful day.

"I command that you become paralyzed with fear!"

Instantly, both Elementalists paid the prize of letting down their guard due to their fear and traumas as instantly, they became paralyzed.

The Blood Vampire flapped it\'s massive bat wings again.

Whoosh!

Everything was happening so fast, literally none of the hunters could keep track with the outrageous speed of the Blood Vampire. Only Legolas, a Grade C Superhuman was able to keep coherent track of the Vampire\'s movements.

He was alarmed.

"Defend!" He yelled even as he exploded into action.

Have separated from Akela already, Legolas didn\'t even have time to give his beast instructions as he simply accessed his storage ring while charging forward.

By the time that he arrived, the Vampire already arrived.

"Blood Vampire Ability: Natural Weapons!"

The next moment, the Blood Vampire seemed to undergo a qualitative change. Its nails became as tough and sharp as knives, it\'s teeth like daggers, even as it\'s gigantic bat wings seemed to become the long edges of sword blades.

The Vampire did not hesitate, it slashed at the 2 paralyzed Elementalists.

By now, Legolas\' Flames of Elandel Enchanted Daggers already appeared on his hand but he already calculated that he could not make it on time.

Legolas improvised and changed his strategy on the spot.

"SNAP OUT OF IT!" He roared at the 2 Elementalists.

At this moment, there was no time to think, he simply acted on instinct.

Crack!

Something seemed to crack in their minds, both Elementalists woke up.

They didn\'t wake up entirely due to Legolas\' roar, it was also because of their unwillingness and anger. Love between parents and their offspring was one of the most undiluted love ever, separation could create crazy vengeful spirits.

Even as both Elementalists were frozen in fear due to the trauma, in the end, their anger and will for revenge trumped their fear of Vampires.

The love that they had for their son already transcended life and death.

They vowed after that day that they would avenge their son.

Their eyes turned red like they became berserk.

"Forbidden Elementalist Ability: Burning Blood; Accelerated Metabolism; Tooth for Tooth!"

BOOM!

Both Elementalists seemed to instantly turn into the Hulk.

An explosion of power of crazy magnitudes rushed out. Before the Blood Vampire could react, the Elementalist couple with different elements confronted it.

This Forbidden Elementalist Ability burned their blood in exchange for power. Apart from increased metabolism and the boosts that followed it, the greatest boon of all was that it enabled them to combine their Elementalist affinities.

Combining ice and fire, it created a crazy combination, blood steam!

They didn\'t need finesse to control the hot steam, they simply let it out!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Blood Vampire was shocked, it could not dodge on time as the tyrannical power of the steam tore into it\'s sturdy skin, drawing first blood!

The couple dealt crazy damage in exchange for receiving crazy damage themselves. At least, this bought time for the other hunters to react.

Whoosh!

Legolas slashed with his Enchanted Dagger as fire covered the edge.

Bam!

With a focused look on his eyes, Rion pulled the trigger again.

While the last Pugilist took care of himself after being injured by the Warpsnare\'s Frog form, his 2 brothers left him and charged forward to engage the Vampire. The Mages and Edgar were not idle either as they attacked.

Attacks rained on the Blood Vampire but unlike the ungraceful Frog who relied more on strength, the Blood Vampire was graceful and agile.

He was as quick as a cat and as elusive as a rat.

"Blood Vampire Ability: Enhanced Healing!"

"Blood Vampire Ability: Enhanced Strength!"

"Blood Vampire Ability: Enhanced Durability!"

"Blood Vampire Ability: Enhanced Agility!"

"Curse Spell: Speed Reduction!"

"Curse Spell: Damage Reduction!"

Even as the battle continued, instead of decreasing, its battle strength increased, pushing the veteran hunters to draw more into their stash of battle experience to keep this powerful monster contained.

If it wanted to escape, it could have already escaped at this point but the Blood Vampire didn\'t escape because it wanted revenge for losing one of its forms.

Apart from its crazy physical attacks, drawing into the power of its bloodline, the Blood Vampire started releasing different curse spells.

He didn\'t even need to draw magic circles and signs, ingrained in its powerful bloodline, it simply accessed them and unleashed them instantaneously, catching the hunters off-guard and disrupting their tempo.

After a crazy battle of an intense pace for 15 minutes, the 2 Elementalists finally lost steam as another Pugilist was terribly injured. Before running out totally though, the couple made their last ditch effort.

"Forbidden Combination Ability: Volatile Reaction!"

After one last combination of fire and ice, producing the dangerous steam, this time a much more volatile reaction occurred as the steam produced gathered such a crazy concentrated energy that made it seem like an atomic bomb.

BOOM…!!!

With the explosion, the couple became totally spent.

In exchange, they injured the Blood Vampire but that was all. Activating it\'s enhanced healing bloodline ability literally negated all the damage.

The hunters were shocked as the realization of what they were facing finally dawned on them, Edgar reacted the most. "Warpsnares are too dangerous".

"And I bet this is not even its final form!"

"Your Almighty the…"

"Do not mention his name here!" Legolas was quick to interject.

He smiled. "He already intervened".

He grinned. "He already blessed me".

Legolas no longer held back, he rushed forward even as he let his Grade C aura blast out with the force of an avalanche.

He didn\'t even call Akela along, for a Grade D beast, he was confident that he alone was enough to take care of it.

"…!"

As soon as his new aura and energy spread out, all the hunters reacted with shock even as they came to their different conclusions.

\'The Great One can do something like this?!\' Edgar was going crazy.

\'He indeed is an Almighty!\'

Feeling the sudden change in aura of one of his enemies, like the other hunters, the Warpsnare was also shocked into action.

The Warpsnare could feel death directly breathing against its neck.

\'Who is this hunter?!\' It dared not hesitate.

"Final Forms: Dark Warg Form!"

Bzzz!

Before Legolas could close the distance to it, the Warpsnare suddenly divided into 2. One of its forms remained the Blood Vampire, but the 2nd form brought out a Warg reeking with the dark energy of the underworld.

"Woof!" This Warg\'s bark reverberated like thunder.

There were 2 tangible form opponents, but something else attacked Legolas first.

Bzzz!

Legolas\' perception of reality experienced an instant change.

Legolas was shocked. "Wow!"

He was not afraid, he was simply amazed by the abilities shown by the Warpsnare, it made him all the more hyped for the takeover.

\'This is a beast worthy to be my 4th contracted beast\'.
