2286 {Lifeblood Exceed}
-----
RUMBLE!
The skies of Abyss trembled and reverberated by the sound of crackling thunder and the very fabric of space being torn apart, Yog-Sothoth's transformation triggered as he fully opened the doors that encompassed his very being.
The powers he maintained sealed as an Outer God were tremendously vast, especially of Ancient Outer Gods, whose power was tremendously high compared to the much smaller Lesser Outer Gods. Their very bodies were embodiments of Void and Chaos, and therefore, the more power was unleashed, the more space and even time was distorted around them.
To prevent that from happening and destroying everything in their wake, the Ancient Outer Gods would seal their true powers into lesser forms themselves, containing their Void and Chaos powers. But right now, Yog-Sothoth couldn't care less about the safety of this world.
He had planned to devour it once he dealt with Noah, but now he had realized he would need to release his true strength by unsealing it to defeat him entirely.
"[Release First Seal]"
FLUOSH!
His body suddenly transformed, perhaps growing slightly smaller than before, new eyes and jaws appeared across the body, as the giant door opened fully, revealing a spiraling portal of chaos and void.
"He became smaller?"
Noah's army of Cosmic Blood Servants continued growing larger with each passing second, his Blood Armament creation constantly unleashing a storm of piercing, explosive projectiles.
Yet Yog-Sothoth's constant transformation emitted a powerful shockwave of void and chaos, shaking the entire world itself, cracks across space opened, time itself seemed to be going slower and faster at times.
"Come out, my children! [Outer Realm Gate]!"
RUMBLE!
A giant gate connecting to the Outer Realm directly opened, Noah's sharp crimson eyes glanced as dozens- no, hundreds of Outer Gods started coming out.
"Interesting strategy, you simply were trying to bring more backup?" Noah wondered. "Very desperate. Perhaps I should finish this off quickly and give you mercy."
"SILENCE!"
Yog-Sothoth roared as his children rushed towards Noah, their Auras of Void growing larger and suddenly making them several times stronger.
For a moment Noah flinched, stepping back as countless, sharp, spear-like tentacles rushed down, trying to impale his entire body.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"Hm."
Noah simply blocked all blows with his own Cosmic Aura, they were unable to even hit him before they were stopped. He then stepped forward, with his spear turned into Excalibur again, and unleashed a barrage of myriad of slashing attacks.
"[Holy Blade Arts]: [Thousand Setting Suns]"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
Within mere seconds, dozens of Outer Gods were reduced into countless of pieces, and then swallowed by the Sea of Cosmic Blood that was constantly pouring out of his open wound.
SPLAAASH!
Yog-Sothoth glanced in disbelief, from all the things he had heard about Noah, he never imagined that the emperor of all vampires would actually wield Holy Blade Arts!
And they weren't any normal, with a mere slash of his sword, he reduced half of his children into nothing…
Yet their remains quickly started getting back together, fusing into something larger and aberrant, masses of tentacles, eyes, and jaws.
"So that's the special ability?"
Noah glanced as he saw all those he killed suddenly leave his Blood Sea and fuse into larger aberrations, the more he killed, the more of these gigantic monstrous beings would be born.
"Yes, this is one of my powers, Noah!" laughed Yog-Sothoth. "I am the Door to my Realm! And as long as my Door remains open, my children are immortal. Just like yours, isn't it? We are equals now!"
"I wouldn't say that with so much confidence," Noah's blade of light started shining brighter. "Shine, Excalibur."
FLAAASH!
His sword unleashed a flash of bright light, illuminating all his surroundings. The monstrous Outer God Aberrations were turned into ashes, burned to nothingness with the intensity of the Sun of Abyss, whose power and flames he had used to refine Excalibur.
"Gryyyaaaggh!"
The screams of agony of the Outer Gods reverberated constantly. Their attacks were utterly futile, nothing could get through the Blood God Emperor's defenses, and his attacks completely destroyed anything.
Yog-Sothoth was shocked to realize he actually couldn't revive his children if he completely disintegrated them!
"What's wrong? Out of options? Let me finish you off then," Noah rushed towards Yog-Sothoth, activating more of his abilities.
"[Lifeblood Exceed: Level 1]"
BA TUM!
Noah's heart started beating incredibly quickly as his entire body flared with heat, his blood pumped at immense speeds, his pale skin suddenly becoming bright red, as his eyes flashed with crimson light.
FLASH!
With a single step in the air, he reached Yog-Sothoth, his Cosmic Blood Aura surging like an endless, explosive rampaging thunderstorm!
"What…?! His capabilities suddenly were enhanced a thousandfold?!" muttered Yog-Sothoth in disbelief. "HOW?!"
"Lifeblood Exceed is an easy-to-use ability, the first ones I ever mastered," Noah said. "I merely make my blood go very fast and generate electricity and heat power from it."
"EH?!" Yog-Sothoth didn't believe how simple it was. "But wouldn't your body be completely destroyed like that?!"
With a furious roar, the Outer God rushed towards Noah, his titanic tentacles attacking him, each blow came packaged with Chaos and Void, capable of tearing through reality!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
Yet Noah resisted all blows with Excalibur, and a secondary blade made out of his own blood, which he materialized into red steel.
"Vampires have endless regeneration."
Of course, even if a God were to do this, it would kill them eventually.
But Vampires with their endless regeneration, especially with Noah who seemed to have endless blood reserves.
This was nothing but child's play!
And it was only Level 1?!
"TCH! SHUT UP!"
Yog-Sothoth retaliated Noah's attacks with his giant tentacles, explosions of Void, Chaos, and Blood erupted within the skies.
The Vampires down below, waiting within the surface of Abyss glanced into the skies, as their glorious and almighty Emperor singlehandedly fought the strongest being they've ever seen before.
"Our Emperor… in the flesh! It has been so many years!" Thanatos said.
"He has not his touch yet…" King Vlad muttered.
"I would say he's even stronger than before, how?!" Queen Cecilia groaned.
"Tch… Blood God Emperor Noah is not the only monster in that moon. They're coming out already." King Vlad sighed, pointing at the sky again.
"Who?" asked witch queen Frigga.
"His family…" witch queen Hecate smiled.
The doors of the crimson palace slowly opened within the red moon, as a group of powerful vampires stepped out, greeting the thousands of Outer Gods surrounding the moon.
Their figures were varied, but they all exuded a tremendous power vastly surpassing all the Blood Gods in the surface.
These were not only Noah's children and his wife, but also all his friends, and their own kids.
"It has been thousands of years since our last proper fight…" a blonde vampire with a handsome, youthful face wondered, looking around. His short blonde hair waved by the wind, as his gentle looking eyes analyzed the situation. "Outer Gods again, looks like we can't go easy on them either…"
"I hope you haven't lost your touch, Arthur," said a beautiful woman, she wasn't taller than him, in fact, she was slightly smaller, but she held the authority and might of the one only one whose the Vampire Emperor has ever loved. Her long red hair, her big fox ears, her graceful, yet playful demeanor.
"Don't worry Iris."
FLASH!
With an explosion of golden and crimson light, Arthur's beautiful body transformed.
"GRUOOOHH!"
Into a gigantic golden-colored, insectoid beast.
