The two streams of flas should have easily destroyed Kraken, even with Alucard grabbing the monster by the tentacle and dragging it very far away from the Colosseum.
However, their overall speed was not enough to completely evade the flas covering a vast area of open space.
Alucard frowned, it wasn't a problem for him to run away from the flas or just take the entire attack on himself. Even if he was burned to the ground, he would fully recover after a few seconds, but that was impossible for Kraken.
"Fire... Dark and white, especially the flas of the Ashen... Damn, for your sake I'm going to have to go through sothing really nasty. Don't you dare run away!" Alucard said seriously before turning into a bloody torrent.
Alucard appeared in front of Kraken, clenching his fists tightly with a great frown. Even though he was the strongest Vampire, the flas of the Ashen one, especially from Gael, were his natural enemy. He wasn't in danger of death, but prolonged discomfort would definitely be his companion.
"What's he going to do?" Nitra muttered in confusion.
"Isn't it obvious?" Liang cast an arrogant glance at her, "He's going to rescue that spatial octopus. All to satisfy his interest and fulfill his desires. Damn, his level of freedom and selfishness really knows no limit."
Nitra said nothing as at that mont the scenes when Alucard had saved her and their Tree flashed before her eyes.
He didn't have to do it, and it wasn't fun for him, but he dared to do it. Nitra could have any opinion about Alucard, but she was grateful for what he had done.
"Agh... What's going on?" Nila muttered, opening her eyes.
"Oh, you woke up just in ti." Liang uttered in a slightly surprised tone, "Look, now Alucard is going to save whoever you wanted to kill."
"What...?" Nila didn't understand what Liang was talking about, but as soon as she looked away, her eyes went wide with a slight shiver throughout her body.
Kraken was alive, though she was sure that her attack should have plunged the monster into the depths of the abyss forever. Moreover, two streams of fla that effortlessly burned the dark tentacles were moving at Alucard, trying to protect Kraken.
"Why? I don't understand anything..." Nila's gaze went blank as she felt a deep sense of resentnt.
Liang shrugged, "No one knows. It's Alucard, but he definitely has so idea, and honestly, right now it's the most interesting thing there is."
Whoooooooosh.
Before the streams of fla were to reach Kraken, Alucard took a deep breath, directing all of his energy towards his chest.
There was no air in the open space, but in Beastfolk World there was, so very soon everyone in the colosseum felt that, it beca hard for them to breathe.
Alucard's breath was powerful enough to absorb everything in its path, whether it was the wind, or two streams of fla carrying imnse power.
The black and white flas, could not resist such a powerful pressure, heading towards Alucard and disappearing into his mouth. Obviously, this process was not painless. The fire was burning Alucard from the inside out, turning him to ash.
However, Alucard's powerful regeneration imdiately repaired the damaged body parts, or rather organs since they were the main target of the fire.
"FUCK! It hurts so bad!!!" Alucard shouted, echoing for miles around, and shaking the minds of others.
Gael's eyes went wide as he hadn't expected Alucard to say sothing like that. Gael knew more than the others about Alucard, but everyone was well aware that pain was commonplace for Alucard.
Because of his immortality and the number of years he had lived, Alucard had little perception of pain. He had experienced almost everything that was possible, even the worst torture would seem to him sothing boring and primitive.
Fire was no exception, Alucard had died many tis by burning in the flas, but he had never been in such a difficult situation before.
Alucard couldn't just let the fire burn itself since in that case the flas would burst out and kill Kraken.
So all he had to do was endure and wait for the flas to exhaust their energy. He continued to regenerate while his organs burned away ti after ti, bringing him a savage pain that no one could endure but him.
"Argh... That was fucked up..." Alucard muttered, exhaling black smoke and slling a foul odor like burnt flesh.
Tap.
After a while, the purple tentacle was on Alucard's shoulder. Gael and Ereg were alard since they thought Kraken was going to attack Alucard and take advantage of his vulnerability.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
The tip of the tentacle tapped on Alucard's shoulder several tis as if trying to see if he was okay.
"Hah, are you worried about already? I won't hide it, it's been hard, but it looks like it was worth it." Alucard smirked, turning to Kraken.
Kraken stared at Alucard intently, but there was a look of worry in his eyes. Kraken realized that these flas could easily end his life, and only Alucard could save him.
"Interesting, I didn't expect the most dangerous open space monster to behave like this." Liang said with a curious expression, "But... What does he plan to do next?"
Alucard remained silent for a while, just breathing. He needed to regain his strength, more ntally than physically.
"Damn, that was rough." Alucard muttered shaking his head before turning to Gael and Ereg, "If you had attacked harder, the flas would have just burned through . Such power is impressive."
Gael smiled slightly, nodding slightly. Alucard answered him in the sa way.
Ereg stepped forward with a great frown, "What do you plan to do now? Do you really just want to let that monster go after all he's done?"
Alucard smiled slyly, "Well, let's be honest. That Kraken only hard Nila, but I was the one who caused it. Moreover, because of it, Nila reached the Transcendence Stage, so you can disregard that."
Ereg wanted to say sothing, but Alucard beat him to it, with a wave of his hand, pointing at Kraken, "From now on, this huge octopus is my personal pet! I want everyone to know about it!"
Kraken's eyes went wide. He still found it hard to accept that events had turned out this way, but it couldn't be said that, he was against it.
Kraken was a monster first and foremost, and it was his decision to join this battle and attack Gael and Ereg, even though he could feel how powerful their auras were.
Like any other monster, Kraken was ready to die in a fair fight, and he was grateful to Alucard, who decided to save him. Moreover, whether he wanted to or not, it didn't matter, as he simply had no choice.
"By the way... Don't you know how to talk?" Alucard tilted his head in confusion.
Unlike other races, because of their chaotic origins, monsters had to go through a special process to learn to speak.
Sotis the monsters were helped by the mbers of the Pillars by giving them nas, but most of the ti it happened naturally as the monsters grew stronger.
It was almost impossible for a First or Second Chronicle monster to get its own na. However, if it was a Fourth or Fifth Chronicle monster, the situation was already quite different.
Such strong monsters lived for a long ti and went through many battles, so almost all of them had nas, a clear mind, and could talk.
In response, to Alucard's question, Kraken shook his head awkwardly.
Alucard raised an eyebrow in surprise, "Well... That's unexpected, but maybe it's because you were born in open space... Anyway, it's no problem!"
Alucard got an excited expression as he looked at Gael standing in the distance. Gael smiled slightly as if expecting this.
"Hey, you've seen a monster like this before, right?" Alucard asked with a smile.
Gael nodded, "Yeah, at one ti I was traveling quite a bit in open space and then I saw a similar octopus. That one was a bit smaller, with not as many eyes and tentacles."
"So... Do you know what they're called?" Alucard waved his hand.
Gael shook his head, "I doubt there's any definite na for such rare creatures, but then I gave that octopus a nickna - Kraken."
Alucard's eyes shone brightly, "Right! Kraken, that's a great one!"
"Wait... You're not going to na one of the strongest monsters in open space, are you?" Ereg realized an eyebrow in disbelief. He could expect a lot from Alucard, but it seed to him that things had already gone too far.
"Hah, sure I will!" Alucard exclaid, turning towards the octopus with clear intent.
Everyone beca wary, even Liang and Nitra. They had seen so Fifth Chronicle monsters get nas, but Kraken was stronger than most of those on the God Stage.
Moreover, if Kraken used all of his abilities, he would defeat Nila, who was new to the Transcendence Stage.
None of them knew what the result would be.
