Infinity: Rising of the Soul Weavers

Chapter 293 - Immortal Blood Mantra Part 3



"Go on!" Abbadon simply instructed Keith as he finally let go of his neck. 

Right now, he could not describe his feelings. It's difficult to think that a previous servant of his, and a current subordinate of his mistress, had so many hidden secrets that he never even doubted.

However, right now, he even suspected that Keith was many times older than himself...

*Sigh*

"As I mentioned before, I was one of the four Seraphim of the End," Keith sighed heavily. "The reason I found this Immortal Blood Mantra technique was because I- I took it from someone…"

"So, the mighty Seraphim also steal?" Abbadon narrowed his eyes in disgust.

"Lord Abbadon, you misunderstood…" Keith said as he continued. "Although I said 'took', it… it wasn't that simple.

"At that time, I was sent to destroy a certain planet. That planet happened to be a very prosperous planet. For example, it was about twenty more times larger than the size of Earth, and countless creatures lived there. It was one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited-"

"And you destroyed it!" Abbadon gritted his teeth. However, even though he was quite angry, he didn't lose control and his aura remained as still as the bottom of a well.

"Abbadon, let him explain!" Kayla had enough and suddenly spoke loudly.

Abbadon quieted remarkably and closed his eyes to restore his calm.

"Anyhow, while I was leading my army of angels to destroy the planet, something unexpected happened," Keith recalled. "A very strong aura suddenly prevailed over the planet.

"There was no mention of it before; none of our scouts ever mentioned anything about such a powerful entity hiding on the planet.

"However, there was no denying it. At the time, I even suspected that that person was more powerful than the Supreme Deity!"

Keith showed some fear, even after so many years. The feeling was still vivid in his mind.

"A Monarch!" Kayla suddenly shouted.

"Lady Kayla?" Keith was confused.

"The person you met," Kayla explained. "It was most likely a Monarch! Anyway, continue!" She was even more interested now. It seemed that his mysterious technique was indeed special.

"Uhm," Keith nodded while recalling more of the events that unfolded that day. "Although the aura was extremely powerful, and it felt like I could be killed in an instant if that person wanted, I was not.

"Thinking that something was off, I approached the source. I followed the aura into what seemed to be a mountain range that was weirdly dyed red.

"In a certain natural cave, where the source of the aura was, I found an injured person…

"It was a human looking girl that was no older than twenty five or so, in human age. And, this girl was surprisingly injured!" He exclaimed. He could still remember his surprise. 

A person who was way stronger that his Supreme Deity was injured! Who could injure such a person? The fear was still fresh in his mind.

"Contrary to my expectations," he continued. "The girl didn't seem hostile at all, instead she smiled happily once she saw me. I still remember her blood stained teeth as she coughed blood once she tried to greet me...

"After waiting for her to regain her composure, she simply pointed at me and muttered 'Angels are supposed to uphold justice and respect fairness in the world, I entrust you with my final wish!'

"And with that, she pointed her index finger towards me and something swiftly left her and shot towards me, hitting me square in the forehead. 

"Strangely, I didn't feel pain. Instead, I felt dizzy as I fell into a comma of sorts. During that comma, I witnessed… *gulp*" Keith swallowed loudly as he tried to continue as if nothing had happened. "I witnessed some things that are not for the weak to witness."

Abbadon raised his brows. Not for the weak? But thinking about that strong girl that was supposedly a Monarch, he didn't comment. Keith was indeed weak in comparison to her.

"It took me a while to realize that what I witnessed was various episodes of that girl's life," he continued. "To my surprise, although she looked in her prime, she was a very old lady who had lived countless centuries!

"What's important though, was the events she specifically chose to show me. In those memories of hers, I clearly saw my Supreme Deity being murdered by two insanely strong people, of the same level as that girl.

"From her memories, I inferred that the girl had shown up at the exact moment of our Supreme Deity's death. She tried her best to kill those two people, but alas she was not successful and instead got injured, forcing her to run away. However, she herself made sure both people were gravely injured too.

"'Young lad,' her voice mysteriously appeared in my mind. 'You saw what happened, right? Those two people intruded into your Solar System and killed the only Origin Master expert you have, you Supreme Deity.

"'However, I have managed to injure both of them so you don't have to worry about them for a while. But, you need to stop them when the time comes!

"'I will teach you a set of techniques that is exceptionally powerful and can help you increase your power level quickly. Since you're already at the High-Level of Star Accumulation, you should be able to practice this technique and quickly level up, do you understand? 

"'Only by increasing your power can you stop them, otherwise, your entire planet will be destroyed.' With that, a series of mysterious voices containing instructions invaded my messed up with my head.

"'This is called The Immortal Blood Mantra, it is the specialty of my Blood Tribe. Practice and increase your strength, kill those two before they recover! Unfortunately, I won't be able to help you, I need many years in order to recover, my injuries are much more severe than theirs.

"'*cough* Oh, and you don't need to bother with this planet, I have seen the disgusting things they do; they all deserve horrible deaths! That is why I am to feed on them and hopefully, recover faster. 

"'Anyway, that's all, now get out and go hide with that little army of yours. You might get killed if you go back, your Supreme Deity is dead after all… I'm sorry about that, it's my fault.' She sighed as she said her last words and forced me to the outside of the cave with a mere wave of her hand.

"I left the planet like she requested and hid with my army. I tried to look for news about what happened to my Supreme Deity and other Seraphim. 

"Later, I learned that Michael and Gabriel had submitted to the two strong people who killed our Supreme Deity. Uriel had tried to defend then avenge the Supreme Deity whom she admired, but alas it was her two seniors who needed up murdering her.

"Not long after, a new Uriel was promoted. I, who had the position of Raphael, went missing and never went back. After that, a new Raphael took my position… and that was Lady Maya…"

"So the names are just like codes?" Kayla asked subconsciously. "And since Raphael had joined last, then it is true that she is the youngest of the Seraphim like Sar said…" she muttered to no one in particular.

"So, what did you do alone? Why didn't you incorrect your strength? Was it a side effect from that technique?" Asked Abbadon after some thought.

"No," Keith shook his head. "The technique was really good, especially for my old practice that involved blood.

"However, my power at the time… *sigh* I was ranked at Star Nine Hundred Seventy Six, which was pretty high. But unfortunately, once my Supreme Deity was killed, my powers started to slowly fade away, making me what I am today.

"I even suspect that the two people who killed my original Supreme Deity had done something to take her place. Right now, I have lost my powers, but the others improved further! 

"In a sense, I was demoted from my rank as one of the Seraphim of the End, and even further denied the right of being an angel. That's why, after a while, I completely turned into a Fallen Angel." Saying that, he spread three pairs of black feathery wings.

Abbadon and Kayla looked at him and then at his dark wings. Although at first they doubted him, they now admired and pitied him.

*Sigh*

"It turns out that things are more complicated than we first thought…" Kayla muttered. "So the new Supreme Deity is leading the blind charge against other planets? You mentioned that the planet you were sent to destroy before was a really evil one, correct?" 

She asked Keith and he promptly nodded.

"So, it's almost confirmed that the Supreme Deity is not necessarily bad. It's just that one of the murderers had taken her place, and now simply doesn't care.

"But the question is, do the new Uriel and Raphael know of this history? Or do they believe that the Supreme Deity is justa the same one they served before being promoted to Seraphim?" Kayla mused.
