Ascension of the Nephilim

The power of the Push that had Holy energy was like a giant\'s push that slammed and purged the low-leveled vampires.

As the [Force Wall] pushed out, the sounds of howls and pained cries as vampires emerged out of their vampire form and fell on the ground. Many of them looked badly burned.

The Coven emerged from the portal.

"Eat!" Hunter shouted as he ran and made quick work of the dying vampires.

The Vampire Commander and his clone were pushing back the massive wall that was pushing against them. They managed to stop the powerful push that would have otherwise pushed them further.

The vampire commander learned what was happening as his link with his Blood Clone allowed him to receive the memory of what transpired on the other side of the portal. Their swift reactions immediately stopped the massive wall. But the Coven had already entered to the sides, and more and more of the archers and knights emerged outside to fight.

"You fools! You think this can stop me?!" The Vampire Commander roared and used his strength to fight back the already pushing force. He was at a disadvantage as Branze and Diana had the momentum and velocity in their attack, while the vampire commander was resisting without these two forces and used brute strength to slowly push back.

"Thank goodness, you arrived in time, brother..." The relieved sigh of Aron was heard.

The Vampire Commander heard it, and his heart quivered. His attention was focused on pushing the Force Wall that his back was wide open.

SLASH!

A powerful slash attacked them from behind.

Aron\'s armless and broken body fell down. He had stabbed his sword into his leg, and with his other feet securing the sword. It looked horrifying to look at as his sword stabbed through his already damaged leg.

He made a strong kick that slashed out and halved the two vampires. It was a gory and brutal scene that caused Diana and Branze to channel more force as they saw the state of Aron.

The power of True Cut that slashed out ambushed the Vampire and his blood clone.

Gojirrah and Reptilia rushed towards the side and aimed for the Blood Clone at the sides.

The Vampire Commander was in great pain. The defenseless state that he was in was the perfect time for Aron, who miraculously found strength. It was only after the Vampire Commander felt the pain of the slash that it realized Aron recovered a bit of his strength from the hundreds of bats that died from the Holy Force Wall that smashed on him.

"N...No!" The Vampire did his best to recover. The powerful kicking slice that Aron made hacked them from the upper torso that severed their bat wings and arms. The Vampire Commander tried to reconnect his body with his blood, but the power of True Cut separated them that controlling their lower half to reconnect with the upper half was impossible.

His vitality and defenses were never high in the first place as his specialties were placed on his magic and regenerative abilities. With a Force Wall that hindered him and the quick attack of Aron that wasted no second, the fast, powerful, and magically capable vampire was critically wounded for the first time in his life.

In a startling and accurate execution, Branze and Diana stopped using their Force Wall that the push did not throw the body of the strengthless Vampire Commander. With no force and his body in half, the Vampire commander fell.

His soul was in an upheaval, and the magic that could save him was not working due to the slash.

Mechiel and a few knights rushed to retrieve the body of Aron and protect it while the rest of the Coven raced for the body of the Vampire Commander.

STAB! STAB! STAB! STAB!

Gregory, Hunter attacked the upper half of the Blood Clone while Scarlet and Avary went for the lower half.

Gojirrah and Reptilia charged and attacked the main body. First, Reptilia skewered the lower body that her long spear drove all the way.

Gojirrah stabbed his sword from the top of the Vampire Commander\'s head and drove it all the way down to the bottom half of the Vampire Commander. The spear and sword slid by together and stabbed the two as if reconnecting the Vampire Commander\'s halved body.

The Vampire Commander rejoiced at the stupid acts of the two. Even though he was wounded, his body could recover if reattached. He harnessed the energy to reconnect his limbs, but to his surprise, it couldn\'t connect!

"What?!" The Vampire Commander cursed as he saw how his blood couldn\'t connect.

"It\'s sliced asunder. It won\'t connect easily. You idiot! If you had focused on repelling and attacking them, you would have lived! But they tricked you! And even know you are distracted by my words! Oh... I have the Taunt skill now! Great!" Aron laughed weakly and then fainted. Mechiel was already grasping the body of Aron, and finally, Stellya flew with great speed and began to give Aron potions and pills.

The Blood Clone was fighting back, creating magics that boomed and sent the Coven flying back. If not for Diana and Branze\'s force wall, they would have died.

But the main body couldn\'t do it.

"A split second. That\'s what we needed for our powers to take effect. You focused on healing yourself and lost yourself critical time." Reptilia answered as the power of the spear she stabbed in began to tremble with great force.

The sword of Gojirrah dug deep as well.

"A...sword and spear expert...!" The Vampire Commander was shocked as the Force energy began to attack him from the inside and was actually wounding him despite his high vitality.

Finally, another sword arrived. It was Branze. Diana and Branze both charged towards their respective targets. Branze aimed for the main body while Diana attacked the Blood Clone.

Diana had charged through the explosions and stabbed her sword on the main body.

"I taught them. How were they?" Branze gave a cold look at the Vampire Commander, who was losing power. Another terrifying energy could be sensed.

"Ancient... Source!" The Vampire Commander cursed as the power raged within him.

The upper half of his Blood Clone was trembling and screaming.

"Fallen Source! Impossible!"

Ancient Source was his bane, and Fallen Source was his master. How can his body and blood defend against the two?

"The Coven grows stronger with your blood. The Blood Calamity was too advanced for the Coven to absorb. But you, a Vampire of high rank can help them grow and become the bridge they need. You wanted to turn us into your Coven, but now, you\'ve become food for the Nephilim\'s Coven." Branze harnessed more energy.

The bat army began to swarm around them, but Stellya acted and channeled a great protective spell and only left a small hole where the bats could charge in. But The army behind her also took position and masterfully blocked the attack.

The Vampire Commander watched and could tell that the army of the Steele Family was so strong. Almost everyone was displaying skills and power that would be categorized as Captains. And those that were Captains had the might of Champions.

"Impossible...! Every soldier has a Commander Potential?!" The Vampire Commander was shocked.

The stats of the archers and knights that fought all had stats that were nearly 20 points higher than the common soldiers that he commanded. Only a small portion of his army had that potential, and they had long become the Champions.

And these Champions employed strange tactics that covered close combat, ranged, and even how to fight against flying monsters. As the Vampire Commander\'s control over the army lost, the full army of the Steele family emerged and took their position.

"You..." The Vampire Commander turned to Mechiel.

"Why...? Why did you betray us?!" The Vampire Commander shouted.

"I didn\'t! You insulted me!" The eyes of Mechiel changed quickly as she hatefully raged and bit the Vampire Commander.

The Vampire Commander was defenseless, and his end was sealed.

"How vain. You hated him so much that you expended your soul to show him your form. That killed him, and now you drink his blood to recover your soul." Branze laughed.

"This is your fault! You tricked me!" The Blood Calamity cursed as she stopped drinking a mouthful.

"No. We tricked him. And you reacted. And I\'m sure his wild accusations of killing my son didn\'t help. You killed him because of that, didn\'t you?" Diana laughed.

The Vampire Commander died, and his blood was being drained. Gojirrah and Reptilia began to eat his body. Not a drop remained from the Blood Clone. Even when the Blood Clone lost the strength to maintain his form and became a bloody pool on the ground, the Coven used their swords to drink it.

As the blood of the Vampire Commander was being absorbed by the Coven, a chain of events began to occur.

In the other realms, Fate was laughing as to how the plans of Nephilim progressed.

Destiny was shocked and angry at what he saw.

The counter-attack of Kyros and the Steele family had begun.
