Established Pinnacle: The Enigma

Chapter 263 Birth Of A Vampire God



With every minor Breakthrough of a demigod, one Extra kill becomes an Extra+ Skill, while with two such breakthroughs, an Extra Skill becomes a Unique Skill. The process continued as such.

This was something considered the blessing of the World, thus there would be no sub-skills for evolving Skills using such a process.

In some cases, there are those who don't recieve a divine skill until they broke through a major realm, gaining a Unique+ skill. This was Alfredo's case, when he became a Demigod.

And the more special ones, might not gain one until they broke through two major realms, gaining a Divine Skill by then, making them fortunate.

Now, the main point of this conversation, was to tell you how a demigod like himself, peak, with two Divine Skills and couple Unique Skills could only reach the 5th floor. Just like today, that was what he expected.

The demigod was the first to reach him, as it was the strongest and was pretty fast. But Alfredo was a perfected Demigod, such a demigod was beneath him.

He conjured his [Dark Arts], weakening the demigod earth golem using "weakness" and increasing his strength using "demonization". The other effects such as "pain enhancement" were useless on golems.

Alfredo then clashed with the already weakened Demigod, immediately crashing it into pebbles, surprising even himself. 'Were this things so weak? Or was I just too strong?'

He doubted it and looked at his hand, feeling a bit surreal all of a sudden. He felt his body absorbing energy from around, keeping him energized, but since he was not tired, the effects were very light and nonexistent.

"...Focus on your front, side step and throw a left hook, then a right jab." A voice came from behind him, and as if his Body was being controlled, Alfredo looked ahead and saw a few Deity King earth golems before him.

His body sidestepped by itself, dodging a sword slash, followed by a left hook destroying the head of one earth golem, his right jab also took the head of another golem in quick succession. The precision was spot on.

Alfredo was still in a trance, finding it hard to believe. His reflexes were being controlled by Teach's guidance, sure. But why was his strength so much? His reaction Speed was also nigh-Supernatural.

That's not all, exerting such strength and speed didn't even exert his mind and body at all. This feeling got him excited, so much so that, a burning feeling within his blood erupted.

Like a rabbid dog, he rushed forward, disregarding everything else and threw himself at the earth golem, bringing about a party of slaughter with him. 'What is this..!!' He marveled at the power he held.

Throughout the process of his rampage, his crimson blood red eyes glowed even brighter, making him seem demonic, yet majestic. 'It's like I'm... it's like I've been reborn..!!'

Luckily, Teach's words of guidance guided him well, instilling a sense of noble murder within him. A form of murder caused by a rational, and proper man, instead of a rabbid dog just out to kill, steal and destroy.

Meanwhile, Teach himself walked over the demigod golem corpse, stretched out his hand, and absorbed some sort of ethereal energy from it. Then without wasting time, he leisurely followed after Alfredo. "A bit of cleaning after my dear children." He thought calmly.

Meanwhile, Alfredo, in his noble murderous state, defeated all the golem all the way to the 5th floor, killing ten demigods by himself.

Teach did the same to all of them, absorbing ethereal energy from them, and turning them to complete dust. Alfredo was unaware of this, he was seriously fighting five demigods by himself... and he was winning.

He didnt know where the great strength, great speed, and vast stamina came from, but they made his conquest easier. Allowing him to defeat the demigod golems easily, and more efficiently.

Floor 6, floor 7, floor 8, floor 9 and all the way to the 10th Floor, where an initial Minor god golem stood before him. This was also where Jade and Enigma stopped last week, not because they were weak, but because Jade was bored.

Along the way, Teach absorbed the unknown energy, dubbed realm essence from thirty-five more demigods. All together, he absorbed essence from fifteen initial demigods and from thirty mid demigods.

Right now, Teach sat down within a corner, his legs cross. He ignored Alfredo's plight, as he believed he could not fight a god with his empty Template, and decided to start comprehending a law for himself.

As Enigma's perfect clone, he had a few of his Divine skills, few out of the forty-something, the wisdom or knowledge types ones only. As well as those for Guidance.

The rest of his being, were things he was either born with, or had to attain by himself. Things such as Divinity, True Laws and Bloodline, which he got the "Ascending Book Worm Bloodline".

It was funny how he was created an initial Minor God equivalent, but didn't have a Divinity or True Law. This simple made him a demigod at most, his Stats were also around demigod... for now, as they were constantly growing.

"Lord Teach..?" Alfredo  looked back and tried to plead for help once again, but Teach ignored him and continued his meditation. Then he transmitted a message, "Defeat it yourself, and make sure it doesn't disturb me."

This was the first time Teach had been this severe and strict with another person. It also made him aware that something great would happen... or just that, Teach also had Enigma's ruthlessness within him.

The golem didn't wait for him to sort out his thoughts and reason with himself. It lightly kicked the floor, bursting forth at immense speed, instantly appearing before him.

Booom!!

The three meter tall golem brought down its massive hammer down that directly dug a small grave with one blow, and throwing pebbles and rocks away with its grenade-like momentum.

But Alfredo managed to pulled back with his recently acquired speed. He was able to react to such instantaneous speed because his body Instinctively pulled back at a much faster speed than his opponent.

"...!!!"

Even he was shocked by his own reflexes. Unfortunately, the golem was smart and unlike the demigod golem, it could use Skills of its own with a bit of intellect.

Earth spikes rose from the ground and rushed towards him, colliding with his chest before he could stabilize himself from instantaneous response, thus sending him flying hundreds of meters away.

Alfredo landed down heavily, cracking the surface with his body. But thanks to his durability Unique Skill, he took that attack easily, with minimal pain to suffer.

But things were just beginning.

The golem pulled back its hammer and rushed towards him with powerful strides, slightly shaking the earth with its bull-like momentum.

"Dammit, you're just a pile of rocks dammit, you dare?!?!" Alfredo stood up in anger and rushed towards the golem, disregarding the difference in might between both individuals.

Bang!!

Both individuals clashed together, like two massive trucks, not losing to the another in terms of power and momentum.

The golem was sorounded by profound blue aura, which was the divine protection of a god, giving them Innate Indestructibility against foes and lower realmed beings.

Meanwhile, Alfredo used his bloodlust Divine+ Skill, one that increased his stats greatly. Along with his newly acquired strength and speed, he seemed no different than a Heinous God of Murderous Intent and Slaughter, with the blood mist around his body.

Days passed just like that, with no one winning the fight between both beings. But they were now ruffled up, the golem all cracked up, while Alfredo was covered in blood and in tatters.

But, instead of looking pathetic, he looked like a rabbid dog as his mouth curled up into a deadly smile, his eyes were purely red, and his body was oozing out red mist, cloaking his figure like a profound bloody devil.

'...I can feel it... this might coursing through my veins... wanting to explode... it's telling me something... the cries of many dead people... they are telling me something... its telling me to—' Alfredo's thoughts were not his anymore.

He felt like a different person, yet the same person, at once. His body kicked the floor, transforming his body completely as he rushed towards the god golem at rapid speeds.

"–TO MURDER!!!" He roared as his hand, transformed into sharp black nails, piecing through the core of the golem within its head, his speed so fast, even it had a hard time reacting to.

A genuine God, albeit slower than most Gods, was still able to cover light years with just a single second!! Yet even then, it failed to respond to the speed of a Demigod!!

Even Alfredo was shocked!!

He looked down in shock, not believing that he had done such a thing. His body felt like it was about to burst with strength, an unfathomable power was awakening inside him.

"This... a Law? Am I... did I just–?" He couldn't believe it and could only look at Teach, who was smiling at him, while the same unfathomable power drifted in his hand, yet different in color.

"Congratulations, and welcome to our Pantheon, Vampire God of Murder and Insanity, Alfredo... I look forward to working with you." Teach said lightly, causing Alfredo to blank out in shock... and maybe exhaustion, as well as pain.

"Your perfect clone, Teach, has comprehended the following True Laws "Knowledge" and "Guidance""

"Your perfect clone has gained the Divinity "God of Knowledge and Guidance(Unverified)". He will recieve prayers as long as his name is enlisted on the Divine Board of the Cloud Palace and varified as a genuine Lesser Divinity"

"Your perfect clone has recieved five Divine Skills as well as an enhanced Divine Skill. Would you like to be connect with your clone and recieve all of his Providence?"

"No." Enigma immediately responded without hesitation. It wasn't a reflex respond, or the likes. He promised himself not to complain and embrace who he was, for his daughters, and for himself.

The only reason he did not take Teach's Providence (Skills, Divinity & Laws) was because even though he and Teach were one, they were also partly separated.

Enigma had a vast Will, as seen by his spirit gauntlet weapon, and his emotions and feelings were a bit complex, as if they came from multiple people yet one person at the same time.

Thus both he and Teach had the same independent Will, and different personalities. Though the personality were only different because Enigma represented himself, while Teach represented Enigma's Guidance and Intellect.

"Due to your will, your perfect clone will be an independent version of yourself, for now. As long as one "Enigma" still exist, you can revive constantly. Teach's Template has been renewed as a lesser version of "The Lord""

"...."

Now he was a bit surprised. Who the hell was the Lord, and Teach had a Template now?

"You can recieve 50% of the Providence Teach attains. Please choose half from the mentioned below"

"Law: Knowledge, Guidance"

"Divinity: God of Knowledge and Guidance"

"Skills: Nigh-Omniscience(Wisdom)+, Intelligence Infinitum, Path To Victory, Psychopomp, Dimensional Travel(Netherworld), Necropresence, Guidance: Advancement"

"I don't know anymore, I really don't..." Enigma lamented having the Bloodline of a Mystique. But he still chose nonetheless, though his heart was bitter, he was getting numb to this by now.

'Though the law of Guidance seems enticing, I'll leave that to Teach. As for the law of knowledge, it might come in handy someday. I can even learn any and all magic spells by then.'

'As for the Divinity, there is only one of them so I can't choose between it. The Skills, seem rather intetesting. After this, I should also check out my Divine Skills as well.'

'Now, the first one makes him nigh-omniscience in regard to Wisdom. Does that mean he will know almost literally anything in regard to Wisdom, Knowledge and spells? Sweet.' He mused to himself.
