"I an what do you have to lose? Either way, your ass is grass the mont your main body cos to find you, so do you want to make the deal or not?"
rciless said, his honesty about the matter was as brutal as ever, Ceridwen understood this, he was right if anything she was sure that Original was most likely on her way here if not already sowhere near coming to look for her.
rciless, on the other hand, had the sa idea and, as soon as he learned of Ceridwen’s current condition, he began to take significant precautions. rciless, without telling anyone, utilizes his power to create ten layers of spiritual barriers around his room. He will know when sothing spiritual touches it. For the ti being, they were in the clear, as far as he could tell.
But, as far as he is concerned, the sooner they complete this contract, the better; he was not going to let an opportunity like this slip away.
"Alright, Ceridwen."
rciless said, his voice lowering as a mysterious power began to surge in the air around him.
"Ti to seal the deal."
rciless said, as his body soon began to radiate in a dark aura, it felt imposing and almost suffocating. His right hand began to rise slightly, as rciless called upon the ability he had never used before. His Absolute Contract.
For a brief mont, the world seed to stop. The air around him distorted as an ethereal fla of black, purple, and crimson erupted around his body.
The flas curled and spiraled upward like serpents, licking at the boundaries of reality and devouring the space between them with a terrible hunger.
rciless felt raw power surge through him, unfamiliar but natural, as if this power had been latent, waiting patiently to be called upon.
As a variant that has been recently created for this exam, this was her first ti seeing a vampire’s absolute contract up close.
[Wow! So that’s what it looks like?!]
Soon after, the flas began to wrap around rciless’ right hand, slowly scorching away its skin, and as his skin burned upwards, the contract began to manifest itself into reality, as if his own flesh and blood had to be sacrificed for it to materialize, alongside its own set of flas.
From the flaming flas, rather than burning, a sheet of parchnt began to appear, created from rciless’ own skin, flesh, and blood. The paper throbbed with life, crimson veins surging through its surface and mixing with the energy around it.
It then began to float in the air before, emitting an eerie light as rciless’ demands began to carve their way into the fleshy surface, with each word blood began to drain from the wound.
--------------------------------------
♱ Full and Unrestricted Access to All Knowledge possessed by the signee, past, present, and future, if they have knowledge of such events in the making of course.
♱ Complete and Unwavering Loyalty to the contract holder, in all matters and under all circumstances.
♱ Absolute Submission of mind, concept, will, body, and spirit, without exception or resistance, to the authority of the contract holder.
As things currently stand these were rciless demands on the matter; but just as his demands were carved into the contract. So were his promises to Ceridwen which was her wish.
In return, the signee, Ceridwen, shall be granted:
♱ Permanent Protection from the original collective and all external threats, ensuring her independence and safety.
♱ A New Identity with a unique na, free from the influence or knowledge of her prior existence.
♱ A Physical Body, crafted through the contract holder’s abilities, granting her the ability to live as a tangible being.
♱ A Position of Power within the contract holder’s inner world, with dominion over a domain of her own.
--------------------------------------
Each word bled into the parchnt.
And the mont it was created rciless began to speak once more.
"In exchange, I’ll give you everything I promised—a new life, a physical form, freedom from your collective, and a place of honor within my inner world. But you will belong to . Mind, body, and soul; I have serious trust issues, anything that doesn’t belong to , I can and will not trust, so you must understand why the contract is ford like this."
The flas around the contract blazed, spreading shadows throughout the room. Ceridwen couldn’t resist the offer, not because she wanted to, but because she had no other choice.
rciless was aware of her vulnerability as a result of her separation from her original personality. He exploited that frailty, delivering a perverted feeling of deliverance.
[So either beco a mindless machine with the Original, an eternal tool for the House of Ghal, or stay with you and get so leverage of freedom, while maintaining my individuality, hahah... this isn’t really fair, but beggars can’t be choosers, and I don’t want to be under that things influence if I have a say in the matter.]
Ceridwen said to rciless, who replied back as such.
"I an, it’s not complete freedom because I practically own you in every way possible, since I will have the rights to your existence; so, if you sign this contract be prepared to have no other but , I am just that selfish, but given your dire circumstances, this may be the closest thing to true freedom you’ll ever have."
"Then again, you are free to not agree to my terms and return from where you ca, but I don’t believe that is what you truly want, do you? After all, freedom is a beautiful thing, is it not?"
Ceridwen remained silent, the reality of her situation sinking in. She knew he was right. She had no other options. This was her only chance to survive.
The flas grew more intense, the contract glowing with an otherworldly radiance. rciless raised his hand, his fingers curling as the parchnt slowly drifted closer to Ceridwen’s spectral form.
Although rciless can not see Ceridwen’s spectral form that has recently manifested beside him, if he does not close his eyes that is, activating his mind eye.
After all, Ceridwen was not a soul, but rather living data, in the truest sense a living AI, or floating information.
But the contract definitely senses her presence.
"I an co on woman, don’t you want to see the outside world yourself, being trapped to sothing beyond you is not a nice feeling, trust I would know."
Said rciless as he recalled the life of his past incarnation, that being none other than rcy Morgan.
[Sigh, fine!!]
Ceridwen hesitated for a mont longer, and then, with a resigned sigh, she extended her essence toward the contract. A thread of her incorporeal form reached out and touched the pulsating parchnt.
The mont she did that, the room exploded with energy. Purple and black flas engulfed the contract as it burned away, the symbols searing themselves into Ceridwen’s very being.
She cried out as the bond was forged, her essence tied irrevocably to rciless. The power of the contract surged through both of them, binding her to him in a way that went beyond the physical or ntal. It was deeper. More absolute.
Instantly rciless felt the bond ford.
The flas died down, leaving only the echo of the contract power in the air.
But nevertheless, the contract was complete.
"See was that really hard, what you did was make the first real choice of your life, even if it was kind of forceful, but besides the point, doesn’t change the fact that the choice was in the end yours."
"Hmmm oh wow, so that is your true form, I got to say the original really doesn’t like to oversimplify things.
rciless muttered as he gazed at Ceridwen’s present form, which was now visible to him thanks to their bond; she was only a blue-light shape in humanoid form, with no additional details beyond her thick curves. In the strictest sense, she was pure data-given form, but Ceridwen began to respond accordingly.
[It’s not that I didn’t want to show you my true form, but without a device that allows you to perceive beings in augnted reality like myself, there isn’t much you can do to see . Because I am an augnted reality entity when the Original Ceridwen splits her mind into variants, we basically beco data that can interact with others; this is why you can’t see at first. But I believe the contract gave you the ability to view beings from the digital realm because I have no explanation for why you are seeing right now.]
Ceridwen explains to rciless.
On the other hand, rciless just nodded and replied as such.
"Ohhh wow... is that so?"
To which Ceridwen nodded her head and began to explain.
["Yes, that is indeed the case. Normally, all official mbers have direct access to the Ceridwen Network through their visors or your blindfolds, creating a seamless connection. However, since you examinees lack that privilege, we variants rely on a more... intrusive thod. We embed ourselves into your consciousness, functioning as a parasitic presence within your mind. From there, we manipulate neural pathways, essentially inducing a controlled form of schizophrenia. This disorder allows us to project the data in the form of ’system panels’ you all perceive, bending your brain’s reality to display the information as if it were a natural interface."]
Ceridwen replied as she began to tell everything to rciless, not holding back any detail. This information alone excites him because the way they use their mind-based powers is unique.
But that aside, rciless soon began to walk up to Ceridwen as he looked at her and said.
"Well, you sure are informative indeed.... but anyways, like I originally promised I will now hide your existence so the Original can’t find you using one of my abilities; but first let give you a new na, instead of that borrowed one you are using."
[A new na... what do you have in mind?!]
Ceridwen asked, a little excited since she never had a true na before.
Naturally rciless began to brainstorm a new na, till one ca to him, a bitter smile on his face as he said.
"Carmilla!"
At these words, Ceri... well Carmilla began to repeat the na..
"Carmilla?!"
To which rciless replied back nodding his head in affirmation.
"Yes, your new na is Carmilla, or C2 for short."
