Chapter 95: Chapter 95: I Know You
GRRRRRRRR!!!
A low growl reverberated through the entire banquet, causing everyone’s hairs to stand on end and their third eyes opened wide and glowed brightly like they were about to explode.
No one knew the source of the beastly growl but so of the guests would be on their tip toes, their backs drenched in sweat and holding their breaths as best they could. It was the reaction of humans who were under a great threat, stay put, don’t breathe and don’t move till the threat walks. As more ti passed, more guests were drenched in their own sweat from fear stimuli.
[Greetings to you all, my na is Rus and I co from Earth, long before humans were even born. I hope you’re enjoying yourselves with the food that’s been prepared.]
Everyone in the banquet slowly looked up and saw sothing they’d never forget for as long as they lived. A half man half scorpion was standing upside down on the ceiling with large pincers for hands. Many fell on their butts from fear of this monster and the ladies scread their lungs out.
[I like your reactions. I’m sure you’ve only seen similar creatures to myself on Aerth. Powerful creatures with monster both beast and human traits, wielding unimaginable power that could wipe out all of you if ever you were to go against them. From the mories of the creatures I’ve devoured, humans are greedy, very greedy but from you, all I see is contentnt.
You’re content with living on the moon like so refugee aliens, happy to live your little lives while those on the planet actually grow stronger by the day. You’re content with playing with robots and machines in order to boost your strength when your ancestors have already given you the greatest gift they could! Do you think the golden eye on your foreheads is just for show?! Do you think it’s just an accessory?!] said Rus and transford into a Red Human wearing cool clothes.
[It’s more than just a gift, it’s more than just a decoration, it’s a powerful weapon! A weapon so powerful, you could have a slice on the real world if you know how to use it well!] said Rus as he ford a fist and everyone saw psychic energy wrapping around them and they actually started to float in the air.
[You can do anything with this power, it’s especially effective in crushing your enemies!]
Everyone who was floating felt the psychic energy tighten its grip, threatening to squash them to death like ants.
[Why go for alternative ans when you already have a powerful weapon on your foreheads. Maybe it’s because of the bribes many of you receive, maybe so of you don’t want to have to give up their seats, maybe it’s because of reasons not known to . Whatever the reason may be, I don’t care! Earthlings weren’t born to live on the moon!
Earthlings were born to live on the ground that gives birth to life, Earthlings were born with all life spheres present, Lithosphere, Atmosphere and Hydrosphere. We’re born to be at the top of the food chain, fighting each other for the invisible throne! Earthlings are creatures of water, where we devour each other to grow stronger.
Humans are supposed to be the minds of Earthlings, strategists who plan our every move because you were born with intelligence but since you’re complacent in your little corner, an intervention is needed.
Since you no longer hunger for power, I’ll help you hunger for sothing else. Since you no longer crave strength, I’ll help you crave for sothing else. Since you don’t have a leader, I shall gladly take that position and lead you to a brighter future! Boys, make it quick!] said Rus and disappeared from sight.
Flap! Flap! Flap! Flap! Flap! Flap! Flap!
SCREEEECH!!!
The big hall was filled with bats that chased after the guests and bit them on the necks. The nobles thought that they could resist using their Psychic Powers but they couldn’t activate them and were very weak at the mont. Rus’s speech was just a ans to pass ti until the poison kicked in. All the food and drinks in the banquet were poisoned with a poison made specially by Rus.
When the bat bit their necks, they injected poison into their system while drinking blood at the sa ti. Veins popped on the victims necks and covered their whole bodies and transformation began. Their eyes turned red and into vertical slits including the third eye.
Their physical strength and speed increased by many folds, their red skin turned a shade lighter and the skin was fair and smooth. Sharp fangs protruded from their mouths and wings grew on their backs. The whole process was extrely painful but all of them endured it.
Their cells stopped aging and the bones could switch between hard and soft and finally, an unquenchable thirst for blood assaulted them.
[All civilians have already been summoned to the stadiums, go and have a feast there. Make sure you don’t miss a single target!]
"As you command Vampire King!"
Flap! Flap! Flap! Flap! Flap! Flap!
Everyone used their newly grown massive wings to fly out of the military base and flew towards their territories first. They would have turned into countless smaller bats but the speed would decrease.
Tonight, the entire Taurus Moon would be covered in the blood of its own citizens and a new race would be born. A race led not by a human, not by a vampire but an ancient creature that fought to survive from the mont it was born.
...
Sowhere on Aerth, in a place that was full of grass and trees and each house had an exterior design of a stable but the interior was human and for humans. An old lady slept peacefully on her comfy bed in the middle of the day.
While asleep, her beautiful dream turned into a nightmare. It was a dream where she and her neighbours were living in peace and harmony but all that changed when a teor shower occurred and it wasn’t even a real teor shower but bloodthirsty monsters who ca from the moon and sucked the life and blood of the creatures living on Aerth.
She could only watch as her family and friends were but re husks of flesh, neighbours and distant relatives also suffered the sa fate, nothing but husks, only she was left alive and brought to their leader who looked nothing like the bloodthirsty creatures.
[So, you are the one with a special gift of Clairvoyance. I only have a single question for you before you join my army. Did you predict that we would co through your visions or you’re surprised by our arrival? You know what, forget it, you’ll no longer be a part of my army, I’ll use your powers for myself.]
"I know you. I know you. I know you. I know you."
[Oh really? Then tell , who am I exactly?]
"You are... You are... You are... You are Rus The Slayer, Tomb Desecrator, The Devourer Of Champions, The Mirror Of Your Victims, The Decomposer Of The Deceased!"
[So you do know
but that doesn’t matter, you’re stillgoing to die and there’s nothing you can do about it. Now stay still, this will all be over in a second...]
"AAAAGHH!!!"
...
"AAAGHHH!!!"
"Mother, it’s just a dream! It’s just a dream! You’re safe! You’re ho! It’s just a dream! It’s just a dream!"
"It wasn’t just a dream. It was a vision. I never thought that the Gods would actually bring back my Clairvoyance and also show
such a scary vision. Quick, fetch a paper and pen, I must send word of this to the kingdom so they can prepare!"
"Prepare for what?"
"Prepare for war! The Devourer Of Champions and his Bloodthirsty Army is coming and we must be prepared for him otherwise we’re all going to die! Now get
a paper and pen and start writing!"
"Yes, mother."
...
Back on the Taurus Moon, Rus was quietly enjoying his al, a mountain of corpses of different species were placed in front of him and he was gobbling them up one after the other like a chicken eating corn.
Not far from him were tens of billions of kneeling figures kneeling to him. They’d been kneeling for a few days now but none voiced out a complaint and they all remained silent.
Rus took a few hours to devour the mountain of corpses that had been provided to him and he was happy with the al he’d been served. Cedric appeared beside Rus already holding a napkin and Rus took it and wiped his mouth with it.
[Everyone, I’ve thought long and hard about how we’re going to go forward. We’re gonna take over all the moons before our final and decisive battle with the races of Aerth. Now go, conquer as many moons as you possibly can in a short amount of ti. Use all the resources if you have to, I only want results and one corpse per race.]
