Chapter 103: Season Finale II
"She is a troublemaker, Lord Adam."
Nyx said calmly, brushing imaginary dust from her glove.
Morgan groaned from where she had crash-landed, half-buried in rubble like a cartoon character.
"You’re so mean, big sis, she quietly commented."
Groaning in the corner, the attack seemed light, but it did way more damage than it might seem originally.
But Nyx caught Adam’s attention; her focus was mostly on Clara, and Adam could feel it. Silent rage, the desire to kill, but also understanding.
But her desires were clear, she doesn’t like Clara, or rather, she doesn’t like what she is.
But Clara has done nothing wrong to her, so for that matter, he went between her and Clara, casually, as he spoke up.
"This is my servant, Clara de Moreau... a knight, and recently turned vampire."
Adam said to Nyx, and the moment she heard, recently turned, her emotions changed again.
Pity, slight guilt, she feels stupid for jumping to immediate conclusions, either way, her attitude towards her change in an instant.
"...Is that so... Well, Dame Moreau, it’s nice to meet a servant of the Lord."
Clara looked at her and just bowed slightly.
"Greetings, Lady Hellsing."
That was all Clara said to Nyx, and Adam jumped in, saying.
"Please do forgive her... Clara is not much of a speaker."
"Ahhh, there is no need to apologize, Lord Adam, I understand, I was just curious, is all."
"Ah, no worries, we are all on the same side here, although, is your sister ok, you kind of hit her very hard if I am being honest?"
Adam said as he looked at the destroyed temple. Nyx looked on as well, but shrugged as she commented.
"Meh, if anything, that just made her stronger... Besides, she needs to learn how to address her superiors; this isn’t home where people fear our family, and our position in the empire."
Said Nyx, causing Adam to look in Morgan’s direction as he said to himself.
’Getting stronger by being hit, ha?’
Adam said to himself, wondering what kind of ability would allow a person to get stronger in such a way.
But ultimately, he did not pry.
Morgan, on the other hand, was starting to get up as she groaned from where she’d crash-landed, half-buried in rubble like a cartoon character. But she peeled herself up with worrying ease.
"...Ruff as always, big sis, although you could have hit me harder, I wouldn’t mind."
She added, with a wink, as she brushed herself off.
Nyx’s on the other hand, just shrugged at her baby sister, as her focus returned to Adam, but soon after, she turned her gaze to the colosseum.
"Hmmm... that is quite a lot of them indeed."
"A lot of what?!"
Adam asked, to which Nyx replied.
"Vampire, of course... I sensed a mass presence of them within the colosseum. That was one of the activation triggers for the letter to open up. The other would have been if Meowroar succumbed to vampiric charm if he opened it up, and I sense it. In which case, we were ordered to free him... or, if necessary, execute him on sight. Orders from Mother Minerva and such."
"Mother Minerva!?"
Adam said in shock at the news.
Nyx, noticing Adam’s confusion and aware of his situation with the Shinso family, merely apologized as she explained.
"My apologies, it would seem mother did not explain to you what we are."
"I am afraid not, miss Nyx."
"Just Nyx is fine... One with the Divine name of the Goddess does not need to refer to this lowly one with such titles."
Hearing this, Adam did not know how to react.
’Fanatic, much I guess.’
Adam said to himself.
But did not drag the conversation more than she needed to.
But still, he needed to know one thing.
"Sorry if this comes off the wrong way, but are you really Minerva’s daughter, like biological daughter?"
But the answer he got from her was what he expected, it was just surprising to see that this was indeed the case.
"No, my Lord. I was born human to a human mother. However, as a child, I suffered a terrible accident that would have cost me my life. My father...blessed be his name, used the one wish our bloodline was granted by the Goddess Minerva, a right each patriarch is allowed if it is within her power to grant. He saved me by using his wish to save my life."
"And Minerva answered. She saved me. Remade me. I am what you would call her Spawn. A Metahuman born from the blood of the Sixth Monster Lord... The Lady of Nightmares, the Miasma Mother, Shuten Douji, she goes by many names, as do all your other family members."
She said with her hands raised in a praying motion, It was pure, uncut religious fervor on her part. The kind that made people burn cities down and call it mercy, if their so-called God deems it as necessary.
"You... were born from her love directly."
She said, taking Adam by surprise.
’Her love, woman I was found in the trash bins of the stables, is that really what Minerva told them...well if that is the case, I have no right to change the story, it’s cear to me, that this so call Van Hellsing family are extremley sub-servient to her.’
"Ahhh, how I envy you, Young Kami."
"...When our family heard of your birth, it was one of the greatest news we of the Van Hellsing family could possibly receive... We even have a holiday in your name... My family, and the people in our territory celebrate it every 26th of December... Shinso Adam day we call it."
Explain Nyx, Adam on the other hand had a flabbergasted look on his face, it was clear he was more confused as to why than he was shocked.
So much so, he wanted to ask, Why is her family so devoted to the Shinso family, but at the same time, a loud clang could be heard.
Clang! Clang! Clang! fгeewebnovёl.com
"Ha, what the hell is this thing supposed to even be?!"
Morgan said as she tried to walk towards the colosseum, but just like Adam and Clara, she found resistance.
Adam, seeing this, began to explain, walking towards her as he said.
"Yeah, that’s the thing that was stopping us from crossing over to the other side, it’s a barrier, and a damn good one at that... I can’t break it with my power, if it was magic, easy peasy, but this thing was made from something else."
"So in other words."
Nyx picked up as she walked towards it.
"We can’t commence the slaughter unless we break this thing down right?"
She asked, and Adam replied.
"Pretty much yeah."
"Mmmm... Well, no barrier is stopping me from purging these undead blights from existence, Lord Adam, Morgan... step aside, those blights are on the other side. I won’t allow them to live a second longer... either way, Lord Adam, you can rest easy now... your mission was to bring us here, and now it has been complete, allow this servant to clean these undead freaks from the face of the Monster World."
Nyx blantly said, her friendly demeanor nowhere to be seen at all.
Adam, on the other hand, just nodded as he replied.
"Well, if you want to deal with these guys, then knock yourself out... They are stronger than me, so it goes without saying that there is not much I can do here. That aside, though, there is someone inside that place I need to save."
"...Who is it... I will do the saving for you...
Nyx said, suggesting she did not mind acting on his behalf, but Adam shook his head, as he protested against this.
"No, I will save that girl myself... Meanwhile, you can deal with the enemy, they are at the center of the colosseum."
Nyx frowned at this, but gave up, as she knew she could not change his mind, so she said.
"If that’s your wish, My Lord Adam, then so be it."
"Thanks for understanding...
Said Adam, and Nyx nodded her head, meanwhile she walk forward, and place her hand on the barrier, as she began to give Morgan orders.
"Morgan, set up the multi-layered barrier... and suppression field domain, no one is allowed to escape this place, although code it in a way that doesn’t affect Adam, I heard from the Goddess Adam uses mostly magic to fight, without that, he can’t properly defend himself."
"On it."
With that said, Morgan slowly began to float off the ground. A series of glowing magic circles formed around her, layering over each other in a tight formation. Thousands of strange codes started appearing inside the circles, shifting and rotating nonstop until they all merged into a huge, multicolored sphere that wrapped around her entire body.
Adam blinked at the sight, as this reminded him a lot of the time when Priscilla cast whatever spell she used to make him into a Shinso human.
The amount of Astrum being used was insane...way beyond what he sensed earlier at the colosseum. That one felt big at the time, but now? It felt tiny. Like comparing a matchstick to a forest fire.
And it wasn’t stopping. The coding was still evolving, growing more complicated with each second. There were runes, actual spirit runes, showing up that Adam had never seen before in his life. Some of them didn’t even look humanly possible to understand. Hell, he wasn’t even sure they were supposed to exist, given how inhumanly complex they look, to the point they were constantly changing.
"...Wow."
He muttered out loud at the sight of Morgan casting her spell.
"I know, right?"
Nyx said, her voice oddly proud despite her earlier abusive behaviour towards Morgan.
"As annoying as she is, my little sister’s a freakin prodigy. She has been obsessed with magic since she could talk. Most of her life has been non-stop training under our second mother."
She watched the spell with him, arms crossed.
As she continues to speak and hype the greatness of her little sister.
"Since she was born a sorceress, she doesn’t have to follow the usual rules. She doesn’t need a contract to tap into Attributed Astrum or borrow power from spirits. As long as her soul stays connected to the Spirit World, she can use any kind of magic, so long as she knows how to code it. Perks of being a descendant of Lady Merlin... quite a scary bloodline to be a part of."
Nyx gave a half-shrug, clearly used to explaining this.
"In terms of raw magic potential, she is basically limitless in this field. What she is using right now is called Hybrid magic...basically, it lets you fuse multiple types of magic into a single spell. Elemental, unique, Divine, you name it. The more you know, the more insane the effects get. Of course, you still need a ton of Astrum just to cast something like that... but even among spiritualists, being naturally linked to that plane puts her on a whole different level."
"And now we were given the Divine Mission to teach you what we know, in layman’s terms, I will be in your care, Lord Adam, I was instructed by Father that Mother Minerva wants us to live with you until you become of age... And teach you everything we know."
’So that’s what Minerva meant by new teacher.’
Adam said to himself, as he looked back at Morgan, who was still casting her spell.
"So I am guessing she will be like another magic teacher?"
Asked Adam.
And Nyx replied back saying.
"That’s right! Lady Priscilla might be stronger overall...more experienced, more powerful, but even she is still bound by the laws of magic. She can’t cast a spell without forming a contract. Morgan doesn’t have that limitation. She can use any type of magic, elemental, unique, or even divine magic, but that is more of our mother’s specialty. The only things that hold her back are her Astrum reserves...and how much she actually knows."
"For her, the saying magic is power is quite literal."
Explained Nyx, causing Adam to ask.
"That is so cool... damn this world truly is vast with many wonders, however...what about you Nyx?"
Adam raised a brow, clearly curious, to which Nyx smiled, as she began to explain what her role was in all of this.
As she spoke with self-pride in her own capabilities.
"Me? I specialize in Monster Energy manipulation and Miasma control. I’ll be working with Mother Minerva to teach you how to harness the infinite energy packed into your cells. If you master it, you’ll be able to weaponize your infinite power in limitless ways, like using your own energy to create projectiles, make constructs with it, or share it with others to make them fight indefinitely on the battlefield."
She flicked her hair back, her tone growing sharper, as she worked on destroying the barrier at the same time, passing the time with this conversation.
"I’m also a weapons and martial arts master. Comes with the territory, you know...being raised in a family that has been hunting monsters for thousands of years. I’ve studied over 497 martial arts, and mastered almost every weapon humanity has ever forged. If it can be wielded, I’ve most likely used it to kill something before."
But when Adam heard about the monster killing bits, it truly struck his curiosity as he wanted to ask, but at the same time, he heard Morgan’s voice.
"Original Magic: Eleven Kingdom Array."
The moment Adam saw the complete casting of the spell, he instantly copied it, and the magic sphere around her spread in all directions till it covered the entire ancient city.
Based on the flood of new knowledge rushing into his mind, Adam quickly grasped the nature of the spell. It was insane, designed to infinitely divide and deconstruct any magic used within its range, draining the Astrum from it until nothing remained.
Worse, it locked the entire area inside a sealed mirror reality, completely cut off from external space. Spatial magic? Useless. Escape abilities? Nullified. Unless you killed the caster or wielded a power equal to or greater than the spell itself, you weren’t getting out.
Time itself was frozen inside it. Or... partially. Adam noticed Clara and the others were still moving, meaning Morgan could pick and choose who got frozen and who didn’t. That alone made it terrifying. And for those immune to time stop? The spell cast illusions so real that those immune go mad if they dont have a way to protect their minds.
It didn’t stop there, this spell could also forcibly weakened everyone caught inside by a factor of ten, crippling strength, speed, durability, everything that has to do with physical power.
Meanwhile, the caster and anyone they favored got a hundredfold boost across the board in the physical department as well.
There were other effects layered into it, too, but even just the basics made one thing painfully clear: getting caught in this spell was nothing short of a nightmare for the enemies.
But right after, Adam heard Nyx’s voice, as she said.
"I’m finished on my end too... not going to lie, whoever this person is that made this barrier is extremely powerful, breaking it took me longer than expected."
"Wait, really, and how did you do that?"
Asked Adam, to which Nyx replied.
"Simple, I used my metahuman ability to turn the barrier into a lie, as far as I am concerned, this barrier never existed to begin with."
"...Say what now?!"
Shouted Adam in surprise.
