Vampire Progenitor System-Chapter 165: Eden’s Requiem

The giant monstrosity roared as it lunged, its fused limbs tearing through buildings like wet paper. Its dozens of Lucifer faces howled in overlapping madness, their black sclera glowing with corrupted light. Shadows twisted around its arms, forming claws large enough to crush tanks.

But Mob stood still.

His golden eyes watched it approach, tears trailing down his cheeks, catching the dawn light like shards of glass. The sword in his hand burned brighter, veins of blue deepening into luminous rivers across the white blade. The ground beneath him cracked outward in glowing spiderwebs, each line etched with faint angelic glyphs that pulsed like a heartbeat.

His wings shifted once.

The feathers rippled, and the world seemed to hold its breath. Silver runes flickered along their length, their glow intensifying as they lifted in quiet synchrony behind him. The air around Mob folded inward, bending toward his silent radiance as if gravity itself bowed to his awakening.

Then it arrived.

His divine power.

It didn’t explode outward with fury or rage. It unfurled with quiet, inevitable majesty. A stillness fell across Times Square, silencing the monster’s roar. The twisted shadows recoiled, shrinking away from the aura that now bled from Mob’s entire being.

This was "Eden’s Requiem."

It was not an attack.

It was a pronouncement.

A manifestation of absolute sanctity. The culmination of a power born not from anger or vengeance, but from grief so deep it became compassion, even for enemies.

Where his aura spread, the corrupted shadows dissolved, breaking apart into silver-white motes that drifted upward like forgiven souls. The twisted faces within the monster howled as Eden’s Requiem washed over them. Their snarls broke into sobs, their eyes flickering with faint clarity before dimming into nothingness.

Mob raised his sword slowly.

Blue-white flames coiled up its length, silent and cold. The blade hummed with a resonance that cracked the windows of surrounding towers, shaking broken glass loose to fall in glittering cascades around his glowing form. The sound was not harsh. It was beautiful—like a distant choir singing under the dawn sky.

He stepped forward.

The giant swung its claw down. Asphalt shattered under its descending strike, cars tumbling aside in smoking heaps. But before it could reach him, Mob vanished.

He reappeared at its wrist.

His sword moved once. A single silent arc.

The monster’s hand fell away, dissolving into silver motes before it hit the ground. Light burned through the severed stump, sealing it with glowing glyphs that prevented regeneration.

Mob moved again, flickering like moonlight across water. He appeared at its elbow. Another silent cut. Flesh, bone, shadow—gone, turned to silver dust drifting in the cold dawn wind.

The giant roared, swinging its remaining limbs wildly. Buildings shattered under the force, rubble raining down in choking clouds. Mob moved through them untouched, his wings leaving trails of white light that parted smoke and debris wherever they passed.

He appeared at its chest.

The dozens of Lucifer faces within shrieked, mouths gaping wide in agony. Shadows burst from their eyes, clawing at him with fingers of blackened corruption. But they dissolved on contact with his light, burning away into motes of pale gold.

He raised his sword above his head.

Blue-white flames consumed its blade, spreading outward in glowing wings that mirrored his own. The ground beneath his feet exploded outward in glowing cracks, tracing angelic glyphs across the shattered city square.

Then he brought the sword down.

The blade didn’t slice through the monster. It erased it. Light swept through its chest, turning twisted flesh, bone, and shadow into silent drifting motes that faded into the wind. Its roar cut off mid-cry. Its body fell apart into drifting light, dissolving entirely by the time the blade reached the ground.

Silence fell.

Only the quiet hum of Mob’s sword remained, vibrating softly in the empty street. The wind blew around him, carrying silver dust across the glowing pavement.

His wings lowered, folding slowly behind him. The golden light faded from his eyes, leaving them a quiet, trembling amber. Tears fell freely down his cheeks, dripping onto the cracked asphalt where tiny flowers of pale blue bloomed wherever they landed.

Eden’s Requiem.

That was his divine power.

It was not meant to kill. It was meant to cleanse. To release all twisted things from their agony. To return corrupted beings to silence and peace.

Boris approached first, his massive alpha form shrinking down into his human shape as he staggered forward, blood dripping down his side. He stopped a few meters away, staring at Mob with wide, quiet eyes.

"Mob..." he whispered, voice trembling. "What... are you...?"

Mob didn’t answer.

He fell to his knees, his sword clattering onto the glowing ground beside him. His wings lowered further, curling around his trembling body like a quiet shield. His tears kept falling, dripping onto the silent flowers blooming in the cracks.

Vulpina approached next. Her steps were weak, tails dragging limply behind her. She reached out, her fingers brushing one of his wings. Light bled from the contact, illuminating her tear-streaked face.

"He’s... an angel..." she whispered. "He’s... Michael’s son..."

Fowler stumbled forward, leaning on Greta as they approached. His eyes were wide with quiet awe as he watched Mob kneeling among the blooming flowers, tears falling onto his sword’s silent glow.

"Eden’s Requiem..." he whispered hoarsely. "That... was a god-level power... wasn’t it...?"

Greta said nothing.

She looked at Mob for a long time, her chains flickering weakly around her shoulders. Her eyes softened, their usual cold steel melting into something quieter. She nodded once, almost to herself.

"Not god-level," she said softly. "Divine."

Mob raised his head slightly.

His golden eyes burned with grief, with love, with an ancient sadness that felt too heavy for the trembling boy kneeling among the flowers.

He looked at his sword.

Its glow pulsed faintly, reflecting his tears in its silver-blue steel. It was simple. Unadorned. Pure. A weapon that reflected him perfectly.

Quiet.

Slender.

Trembling with hidden strength.

He closed his eyes.

And the dawn rose around him in silence, painting his wings in gold as the first true light of morning broke across the ruined city.

He remained there, kneeling in grief, as the world watched the quiet birth of a sovereign angel.
