Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start-Chapter 884: Arkaxks And Azahuk
-----
Their appearances were revealed, they looked nothing like my previous soldiers. This was because they were alien races never seen before in this world.
The first one of the rows was Arkaxks, a tall, thin alien, with black exoskeleton covering his body, no visible eyes, sharp fangs and jaws, a long tongue with a small jaw on it, four long and skinny arms, reinforced with chitinous black armor, spikes growing across his body, and a long, sharp tail, ending on a stinger with venom.
Despite his appearance, he was more versed at utilizing the power of Psionics, especially of the Umbrakinesis power he was born with. His race, before being turned into a Vampire, belonged to the Metamorphs, a race of ferocious warrior-aliens that devoured any foe in their path and absorbed their powers.
Arkaxks lacked their original power and was exiled and almost killed by his kin because of his weakness, but later on awakened Umbrakinesis when he became a Vampire, growing to combine his ability to manipulate shadows to deal sneak, surprise attacks with his sharp jaws and powerful and strong body, becoming a potent and effective assassin.
And the second of the two, with seemingly no gender due to how their kin reproduced, a tall and lanky figure, with purplish and pink colored skin, no visible hair, and the head of an octopus, with many long tentacles surrounding a hidden beak, and two pairs of sharp azure-colored eyes.
Unlike the friend at their side, they wore purple clothing similar to those of warlocks, while holding a large purple crystal ball on their hand. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
This was Azahuk, a Mind Flayer, a race of parasitic psychic aliens that have the tendency of conquering worlds and turning the compatible humanoids into more of themselves by infecting them with brain-eating parasites.
He was one of the most ferocious and vile foes I've fought, he once led an entire army of Mind Flayers that were being below the orders of an Elder Brain, considered their Eldest of Mind Flayers, who ascended into gigantic floating brains, after having fused their brains together into many.
Naturally, with my Vampires and our natural ability to resist psychic attacks, we held our own ground, and after months of gruesome battles in the middle of space and surrounding asteroids and planetoids, we triumphed.
The Elder Brain was torn to shreds by me and Eleanora, and most of the other Mind Flayers were forced to become Vampires or die, they only had two options.
Azahuk here recognized my tenacity and power, and decided to serve me immediately, having no qualms about his loyalty to the Elder Brain before, who was already dead.
I had my doubts at first back then, but he eventually became one of my most loyal and strongest servants, effectively using his powers with his squadron of Vampire Mind Flayers to alter the memories of people, foes, or even friends to benefit us.
He could also break target's minds, control monsters with weaker minds, and brainwash people. However, what he loved the most was sucking the blood out of brains until they were completely dry, unlike the usual, where Mind Flayers would simply devour a brain entirely, when they turn into Vampires they prefer to suck the blood out of them…
The more they eat, the stronger their mind and psychic powers become, but they were never able to surpass my Defenses, only making his devotion for me stronger as he thought I was a "supreme being".
Seeing their backgrounds, they were both races of aliens with very aggressive mindsets, it made sense they would not easily believe the information implanted into their minds and would doubt everything.
"W-We apologize!"
"Please, execute us for such insolence!"
And these two were now kneeling before me after I completely foiled their plan of attacking me, believing I was a fake Asmodeus or something.
"You were quite insolent, but the circumstances were indeed very strange, so I will forgive this insolence only this time." I said to the two, their eyes shining brightly.
"M-Master, always so benevolent…" Arkaxks sighed. "Even back then when I was much weaker than any of my kin, you took me in and allowed me to fight back against those that exiled me! I will forever be at your service. Even if we've changed, even if I have become something strange… I will remain by your side and kill anybody you want me to!"
"I suppose he said most of what I would have wanted to say, my great supreme lord." Sighed Azahuk. "Since our deaths back then that my soul has felt strange, guarded by someone else. I could have never thought it was your own soul that was protecting mine. You have such care for your servants. Unlike any Elder Brain, you are someone worthy of becoming the King of all!
Please, just say the world, and I will break the minds of all these punny ants in this household and offer their blood to you in a silver platter! They will happily open their wrists for you to drink!"
"Enough." I sighed.
Both of these alien races are bloodthirsty ones, their minds work by "evil logic" as I call it. For them it is normal to kill any being they deem lowly and offer it to me.
"The people in this household are as precious to me as you are." I explained. "If not several hundreds of times more, actually. They're the family I was born with in this world. You will NOT touch them, got it? Instead, aim for their protection and wellbeing. The same is for the people of this entire village.
Do not attack nor try anything without asking me beforehand, understand?"
"Understood." Both nodded immediately, without even doubting my words.
They weren't hard to deal, their loyalty was endless, I simply had to tell them enough information so they wouldn't assume things on their own.
"I can't believe these creeps were summoned now!" Laughed Celestina. "Poor Master, you're up for a handful with these psychos, hohohoho!"
"You're one to talk…" Eriant gave her a side eye.
"Welcome back to the Vampire Family, Arkaxks, Azahuk." Eleanora smiled, holding their hands and helping them stand up again.
"Ohh, mistress Eleanora!"
"It is a pleasure to see you once more, Vampire Queen."
