MENGERTI
Bab 1220: -1205- Corrupt
"Boom!"
In a loud splash, Giada, covered in gruesome wounds, was thrown into the sea.
Blood stained the water, as Giada's agonized voice floated on the surface, convulsing and unable to move.
The Valkyrie who could sever causality not only left wounds on her body but also severed her control over her beast vassals, temporarily cutting off Giada's vampire regeneration ability, leaving her wounds unable to heal, tormenting her continuously.
"How about it, Your Highness?"
Rozen, seemingly concerned, inquired mockingly, his face contorted with malice.
"Is this the battle you desire? Are you satisfied?"
Rozen's sarcasm elicited no response from Giada.
She merely continued to groan in agony, convulsing all over.
With her regeneration ability severed, Giada's wounds could not heal. However, as a Primogenitor, her infinite life force kept her alive, unable to die but enduring endless suffering.
This was the curse bestowed upon vampires, granting them eternal life but making it impossible for them to die when needed, only to endure torment, a fate worse than death.
Perhaps Giada hadn't felt this kind of suffering in a long time.
Or maybe, she had never experienced it before. Who could say?
After all...
"You're a primogenitor. Who could crush you like this, right?"
Rozen continued to taunt.
Naturally, Giada couldn't even muster a response.
This fueled Rozen's heart with endless negative emotions.
"It's because of her that No. 6 got involved in the 'Blazing Banquet' and ultimately died, leaving Avrora in sorrow."
Deep in his heart, a mysterious voice suddenly appeared, persuading Rozen like this.
"It's because of her that a small LCO could stir up so much trouble, making you bear so much."
The mysterious voice informed Rozen.
"If it weren't for her, even if LCO wanted to implement their plan to break the prison barrier, they couldn't."
Without the magic power above the Dragon Vein, the location of the prison barrier wouldn't have been found.
Without the abilities of Number Six's beast vassals, the seal of the prison barrier wouldn't have been broken.
And both of these factors were due to Giada's influence, which allowed LCO to gather them.
Although, even without Giada's intervention, LCO would surely have found other ways to break the prison barrier.
For example, as mentioned earlier, using a large number of innocent people as sacrifices would also achieve the same goal. But if it weren't for Giada's interference, Rozen would have been able to stop that grimoire when he and La Folia appeared together at the top of the cornerstone door and saw "No. 539".
Then, LCO's conspiracy would have been foiled, and all the events would have been satisfactorily resolved.
But because of Giada's existence, Rozen couldn't do that.
If it weren't for Giada, without her bringing No. 6, who in LCO could go against Rozen?
Moreover, only because of Giada, Rozen couldn't have dealt with the criminals of the prison barrier long ago. Why cause such a big uproar?
All of this...
"Is this woman's fault."
Rozen's mind kept surging with such thoughts.
"Kill her."
Rozen could do it now.
"Devour her."
Because Rozen had already undergone vampire transformation.
"Devour her, and you'll gain even greater power."
And it's the power of the third primogenitor's level.
"Haven't you always wanted to become stronger?"
This is a great opportunity.
So, Rozen's eyes became even more crimson, and his fangs became extremely itchy.
Both his mind and his brain were filled with overwhelming negative emotions.
However, just at that moment...
"Roar!"
Hokuto suddenly roared at Rozen.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
Rozen's surroundings were filled with the roars of his beast vassals, seemingly awakening him.
At the same time, a cold breeze flowed out from the Gyokuto ring worn on Rozen's left hand, rushing into Rozen's mind.
"————!"
The crimson in Rozen's eyes dissipated instantly, and his head shook violently, shaking off countless negative emotions, waking up.
At this moment, Rozen hesitated not at all and pressed his hand on the ring mark on the back of his hand.
"Re-seal!"
With a simple incantation, the patterns all over Rozen's body emitted a bright light, and the runes became dazzling, especially the rings on his hands, which looked so dazzling.
Immediately afterward, the patterns on Rozen's body began to fade into his body, and the runes on his forehead disappeared, his eyes returned to their normal color, and his fangs disappeared, causing the terrifying magic power emanating from him to disappear along with them, ultimately leaving no trace.
Thanks to this, the power of Rozen's beasts also began to dissipate, ultimately returning to their original size.
In this way, Rozen resealed the power in his body, causing the ring marks on his hands to begin to disappear, and the phenomenon of vampire transformation also disappeared, returning to being an ordinary human.
1"Whoo... Whoo..."
At this moment, Rozen was like waking up from a nightmare, breathing slightly, sweating profusely.
There was no other way.
"I nearly lost myself..."
Rozen had indeed come close to losing himself just now.
This was the price to pay for unlocking the seal and obtaining immense power.
"I didn't expect that unlocking the seal during battle would have such a significant impact."
In the past, Rozen had attempted to unlock the seal before. During the first curse removal, although there would be tremendous negative emotions flooding in, engulfing Rozen's spirit and leading him to the brink of corruption, with Gyokuto's assistance, Rozen could still hold on for an hour.
However, that was in a non-combat situation where Rozen could fully concentrate, resist negative emotions, and maintain his mental composure.
In a battle, especially when provoked to anger, who could fight while concentrating amidst uncontrollable emotions?
Just now, Rozen was in such a state. He almost fell because of being too careless.
"That was a close call…"
Rozen wiped away the sweat.
Then, Rozen couldn't help but think.
"If even the first seal is like this, how much will I be affected when unlocking the second and third seal?"
Thinking about it, Rozen felt a bit contemplative.
"It seems that the previous attempts to unlock the seal cannot be used as reference anymore."
Before, Rozen had tested unlocking the seal and believed that he could endure for an hour during the first curse removal, ten minutes during the second, and three minutes during the third.
Now it seemed that this concept of time needed to be revised.
The time one could maintain during battle and in normal situations was quite different.
Although Rozen was careless just now due to not expecting it, next time he would definitely not let the seal inside him be taken advantage of so easily. But presumably, the mentioned times for unlocking the seal would still need to be greatly discounted, right?
Luckily, there was Gyokuto's protection and the help of numerous beast vassals.
"Thank you, all of you."
Rozen expressed his gratitude one by one to the beast vassals around him, causing them to let out roars as if to reassure themselves.
At this moment, Rozen turned his head again and looked back in the direction where Giada had disappeared.
"Did she take the opportunity to escape?"
Rozen breathed out slowly.
"Never mind, let's go back and see what's happening over there."
After saying that, Rozen collected the numerous beast vassals, turned around, and disappeared from the spot.
Leaving behind a sea of continuous waves, it was unknown when it would calm down.
