章 56: The Meeting With Dahak
A week later
Outside of an enormous hole concealed by many magic layers, Sam stood looking down at the seemingly bottomless hole. He had boarded an aeroplane and once he landed he followed the voice's instructions. It had wanted him to simply run across the many countries but what kind of idiot did that?
After all, this was the end of the 20th century and humankind had created many kinds of different modes of transport that were much more comfortable and luxurious than running like a boorish moron. (Kai just got wrecked…)
He then trekked through the mountains and forests and finally arrived at this rather hidden part of the area. But that wasn't the only problem, he had to wait for the voice to crack the many magical energy clouds drifting around the area and had caused him to wander in circles for days.
He had started to seriously doubt the voice's credibility after a few days of no results, but it brought him to the hole in the end. The hole itself was enormous, he couldn't see the other side of it and he had to jog around the hole for a few minutes to finally understand how wide it was.
After seeing it he roughly estimated that the hole was around 3 kilometres wide. He felt the walls and they felt very smooth, they didn't have any place to grab and climb down. He had no idea how to get down. The fact that the hole looked bottomless didn't reassure him, instead, it caused him to feel even more dissuaded at the location.
The voice appeared like usual when he needed help, this time it had a sliver of anticipation in it. "Jump, I will do the rest." The voice's instructions were simple and punctual as usual.
Sam dreaded how he would end up if he was to fall but reassured himself with positive thoughts like what he would do with the power he would gain.
He jumped into the massive hole and let himself become engulfed in the darkness. After falling for a few tens of seconds he felt like he passed through some jelly-like liquid and felt his descent slow down before his feet landed on the solid ground.
In front of him was an enormous passage that was lit up by a few levitating flames. After walking for a few more minutes he arrived at a crossroads. "Take the right path" he heard the voice tell him.
He did so and arrived at a dead end, however, this time the wall blocking him off wasn't smooth instead it was filled with many small ridges and cracks that allowed him to have some grip.
He felt an attractive force that came from his vampire instincts that told him to bow down to the wall and at the same time to fear the wall.
By this point, he understood that the wall was not merely a wall instead it was some artefact left behind by the ancestor. Or at least that was what he assumed.
He bowed down before the "artefact" and at the same time asked the entity that was communicating with him mentally "I have arrived, where are you?" He waited for an answer but instead of replying the ground started to shake and the "wall" started to rise off the ground. The "wall" turned out to be an enormous snout that was several 10s of metres wide if and he couldn't see the end of it.
In front of him was a sight that he would remember for the rest of his life. On the "wall's" sides two massive slits appeared, these slits glowed a dangerous red shade. In the middle of these slits, two terrifying pitch black circles appeared.
The ground continued to rumble and shake for the next few seconds until it stopped completely. Sam was able to see the true form of the "wall" in front of him, it was no wall instead it was a colossal dragon!
The dragon was over 3 kilometres long, over 700 meters wide and 2 kilometres in height. Just the head itself was hundreds of meters long. Bigger than most skyscrapers and extremely terrifying.
It had two enormous wings that were each 3 kilometres long, its ridges and cracks were, in fact, the spaces in between its light black scales. It had 2 enormous horns and a mouthful of enormous sharp teeth.

After Sam saw the dragon he felt like a small ant that could be carelessly stepped on. It was a stifling feeling and Sam didn't like it one bit. But nonetheless, since the dragon called him here it needed something from him.
He knew from the mere aura that it subconsciously showed, it could fulfil his desire for power. It was clearly not a normal dragon like the ones he had seen before. If they could have a mere spec of its power they could easily escape their capture and slaughter their captors instead of hopelessly being held in captivity.
"Wh, wha, wha, what do you want from me." The original intention that Sam intended to release was a confident and powerful voice that would cause the dragon to look at him as an equal.
But that came out badly, instead, he sounded like an insignificant fearful ant. "I want some of your blood and in exchange, you can receive mine. This will give you the power that you so desire." The dragon said this time in its true voice not using telepathy anymore.
The voice was an ancient one that sounded like it had seen the vicissitudes of time, it held a confidence and sway that caused him to be in a daze.
"What… what are you going to do with it… sir." After recovering he asked him unconfidently. Sam's voice had started off as a mere squeak and then became slightly louder. But when he received Dahak's glare his voice stifled again before he added a small "sir" at the end.
"It is none of your business, but since you so badly want to know so badly and it doesn't matter I will tell you. I intend to unseal myself."
"You're sealed?" Sam had thoughts of backing out and escaping but before he could even formulate a plan Dahak continued.
"If you want to back out, you should know the moment you landed you were inside my domain. If you do so you die"
Dahak's voice was giving off dangerous vibes causing Sam who was a 1st generation vampire to shiver in fear.
"Of course not sir. I would never back out." He had intended to ask Dahak what he was planning to do after he was released but the heavy aura that was released changed his thoughts and he didn't ask.
"Cut your wrist and I will tell you when to stop, I will do the same," Dahak commanded Sam.
"Okay..." Sam said shakily. He started to cut his wrist with his fingernails and let the blood drip out. Instead of dropping onto the ground it levitated in the air constantly moving. After a few minutes of letting his blood out, he felt himself getting thirst and his eyes started to glow with bestiality.
"Enough!" Sam let himself heal up and waited for Dahak to keep his part of the deal. Dahak let a drop of blood drop out of his mouth and landed on Sam's levitating blood. They started to mix together and a hidden magic circle glowed and floated off the floor and caused the blood to merge before many illusory chains appeared on Dahak.
They started to break one by one until there were no more on Dahak's body. "Free at last!" He bellowed out in joy. 'Now for revenge.' But before he vanished from the vast cavern he allowed for the merged blood to enter Sam's body.
Sam's body eagerly accepted the new blood and Sam felt a euphoric feeling stir up inside of him. But before long a powerful burning feeling stirred up inside of him. He felt something inside of him change gradually and spasmed in pain for an unknown amount of time.
If someone could see what was going onto Sam they could see that his body was slowly transforming. Growing in shape, forming scales a long snout, wings and a tail. After an unknown amount of time, Sam opened his eyes as he stood on all fours and growled with joy as he felt the power run through his veins. He had finally achieved the power he had desired.
