Chapter 102
At the top of a clock tower that was in the middle of the forest two men could be seen looking at each other. One of them had white hair with red eyes but he seemed to be shaking all over his body while the other one was a man with black hair and yellowish eyes but his eyes that were yellowish seemed to exude a dangerous glare. Anyone who would look at his eyes would be scared out of their wits. This man was none other than Vladimir.
In front of Vladimir, the man with white hair was looking at him with a mix of emotions. This man was not just a simple guy as he could do anything on earth if Vladimir did not exist. Right now he was looking at the man that made him feel nervous and scared. Although he was scared he already knew that this would happen.
He was none other than the president of the Union. The most powerful man on Earth, the true leader of the most powerful organization, the man who was feared among the top leaders in the top organization, the hidden ruler of the world, was now standing in front of a man while shaking in fear. He was scared out of his wits that he didn't even know what to do. This was his first time seeing someone stronger than he is. Even though he already knew that he would soon meet this man, he couldn't control his emotions.
Vladimir, who was standing, said "what are you waiting for?"
The voices were so soft and deep at the same time. It was hard to explain but it was a charming and lovable voice that would make your hair stand up in fear and even make someone peed on their pants. He couldn't explain what it was but he could clearly feel fear deep inside his heart and deep in that charming and lovable voice were the most terrifying thing he could imagine.
He muttered up his courage and started to speak.
"Forgive me for my rudeness, Oh! great Vladimir," he said and as if he already knew Vladimir's identity he knelt and bowed down to him.
"Speak," with just one word from him the man looked like he would already get a heart attack.
"My Lord, my name is Ivan Volkoff. Forgive me for watching you from a distance," Ivan explained as his heart was full of worry that with just one mistake may have ruined his life.
'Speak your goals," Vladimir commanded without a hint of emotions
"My lord, I am watching the girl that is with you. I sensed that she used her power again which was why I planned to stop her again but I didn't expect to see the venerable one here."
"Why do you know me?" Vladimir asked even though he could just read his mind but he wanted him to reveal it himself to see if the man would lie to him.
"I don't my Lord, this lowly one only knows of your name after I saw you in my prophecy."
Ivan was half-vampire and half-human, he knew that he was the only being on Earth that exceeded 49% in being a vampire until he prophesied about Vladimir. His father was a vampire while his mother was a human. Because of it, he had become a perfect half-vampire half-human. His race was different from every living creature on earth.
"What prophecy?"
When Ivan told him about the prophecy he was instantly piqued. HIs got interested in the prophecy that Ivan was talking so he asked him. Ivan explained it to him without hiding anything.
Then Vladimir learned that Ivan was half-vampire and half-human. He had an ability to foresee the future but it only showed him some part of it and he couldn't control it. He also learned about the reason why he couldn't detect Ivan when he first woke up. Ivan had an item that came out from another universe that was able to block even his powers.
Ivan explained to him that he was born on Earth a thousand years ago and he was a son of a vampire that came back from an alter dimension. Based on his father he was originally a vampire that lived on Earth but then they were transported to a world called Ravaryn. And unlike the virtual game on Earth which is also called Ravaryn, it was very different. It was a vast world that no one knows the end of and in that world there are countless beings that have different origins. It is said that they did not come from the same world, some were not even in the same Universe.
All the beings there were known as the strongest in their Universe. When his father got transported to that world he was with more than 900 vampires or to be exact 902 vampires. Overall they were 1000 in their group that came from the world Earth the rest of it was humans. The world of Ravaryn was said to be the platform for the ranking of the Universe and dimensions.
His father also stated that that world is the only way where one can find the answer to reach Godhood.
This topic immediately raised Vladimir's interest, he smiled upon hearing that there was another world where life existed. It only meant one thing for him and it was that he could slaughter more and raise his strength even further. The more he thought about it the more he looked forward to knowing more about the world Ivan was talking to.
Based on his father 1000 strongest entities in the world would be transported in a world called Ravaryn. In this world, they can live their life normally but every year they need to fight another world that also has its 1000 strongest entities. After fighting each other, the remaining 1000 entities would then be a team and then start fighting another 1000 entities that did the same thing as them. This would continue like a tournament until all the representatives of each world that has a living entity in their galaxy have been sorted out and only 1000 entities are left. They would then be considered as the strongest being in their galaxy and would receive rewards based on it.
The rewards will not be given to them directly but instead placed in their galaxy. It can be a much stronger life force, magic, advancement of technology, production rate, magical items, knowledge, talents, etc. If it was magical items it would randomly appear in the galaxy if it is magic and there was already magic in that world it would advance even further.
Then after that, it would be the face-off between galaxies to galaxies until there were only a thousand representatives in each Universe. His father stated that after the fight between galaxies to galaxies the major representatives of their universe came from their race, the vampires. Although they consist of the majority it does not mean that none of them died in the battle; some of the Universe representatives also came from different galaxies. There were also vampires in another galaxy but they were a little different. Humans and many other kinds of creatures also existed in another galaxy which they believe that there was much more into it.
Ivan also explained that his father's point of view at that time was still not wide and some of it was based on his assumptions and connecting the ideas of his father's story. It also said that when they got transported there was an entity calling itself "System". This is the one that explained the rules and his father believed that it was the so-called "God". But from Ivan's point of view, this system was more of a mediator. The system also stated that after being a representative of their Universe they would be eligible to walk on the path of Godhood. And they could find it on the Ravaryn world. Ravaryn is kind of a place where you can reach Godhood to step on the stage of Divinity.
But the only way to do that is to complete the competition. And the last stage of the competition is to fight with each other from 1000 strongest in their Universe until only 3 entities are left. Three vampires from the same world left and it came from their world. His father was one of the three which made him one of the strongest in the Universe.
And this is where the main event happened where each representative of the Universe would fight another Universe for the ranking but unlike before the system explained that even if they were defeated they would not die. Even if they died they would be resurrected and come back to Ravaryn and they would also be given the choice to be back in their world. His father participated in the tournament because the rewards in every fight would be something they can use to reach Godhood and even Divinity.
