Chapter 776 Ixtal has fallen
Regus was the last man standing.
All of the tier6 gods of the Aurelius clan had been killed by Dracula and in of itself it was an irreparable loss to the foundation's of the Aurelius clan.
The problem for Regus right now was not that 6 god's on his side were dead, it was the fact that his opponent did not even sweat while killing all of them.
His enemy was clearly no joke, he was at least as strong as, if not stronger than Lucifer and Regus understood that he had an uphill battle in trying to take him down.
The man had waltzed into his palace, killed his people and was now aiming for his life.
Such a blatant challenge to his authority could not be left unchecked and hence Regus decided to open the fighting with his finest move, the tier8 attack, Ixtal's Supremacy.
For the past 1 minute while Dracula dealt with the minor god's, Regus was focusing on building his divine essence reserve so that he could unleash his best move.
When he reached the threshold, his sword made from the finest divine materials began to vibrate uncontrollably as it was pumped with an incredible flow of divine energy.
Dracula, upon witnessing this phenomenon, chuckled as he pulled out his own dark sword, which looked like a great-sword that was meant to be wielded with both arms, but he wielded it with one.
" Oh you think waltzing into my territory, killing my people, in my own palace is funny? WELL THINK AGAIN " Regus shouted with pure rage as he pointed his sword towards Dracula and unleashed the fabled move-
[ IXTAL'S SUPREMACY ]
Regus cut open a dimensional portal with his sword slash, fracturing the very fabric of space-time as from the other end of the portal, he summoned a beam of pure, unstoppable chaos energy.
This was the same move that killed Satan, the dark sovereign, the same move that was considered unrivalled amongst tier8 attacks, however, unfortunately for Regus he had unleashed the move today against it's creator.
As if almost mirroring Regus's move, however, much faster and smoother, Dracula also cut open a dimensional portal and out came opposing chaos energy albeit with much more gusto and strength.
Regus was dumbfounded, his eyes stretched as big as they could as he could not believe what he was witnessing.
*KABOOM*
Regus's attack met against Dracula's and the clash of two chaos attacks was as ugly as it could get.
The entirety of Ixtal trembled with a seismic Earthquake, the area where the ruins of Regus's palace were located and the river Sanguis flowed nearby were all turned into one massive crater that went deeper than the planet's crust and exposed it's super-heated mantel.
Every life form in a 50 km radius, except the two monarchs was reduced to dust instantly as thousands of vampires who were approaching the palace to check out the disturbance died instantly.
In the list of the dead were 17 clan leaders,10 tier6 god's and over 500 elite tier5 warriors with bright futures who had came to Ixtal to bring glory to their respective clans by taking part in the dungeon event.
Magma began spurting out randomly from various parts of Ixtal as the planets natural veins were damaged because of the shock-wave created by the attack.
If Regus believed that the attack would cause so much damage to Ixtal, he would have never unleashed it. However, how could he have possibly known?
Regus needed over a minute to unleash Ixtal's Supremacy, however, Dracula did it in less than 5 seconds.
To Regus, it seemed like his opponent had no way to retaliate with a tier8 move of his own since even the fastest tier8 moves need at least 40-60 seconds to cast.
How could he have possibly known that his opponent was a prolific planet destroyer and the individual who had created as well as perfected Ixtal's Supremacy.
To Regus, this was supposed to end Dracula's life and send him flying off the planet, but in a surprising turn of events let alone injure Dracula, his attack actually fell short against his opponent.
10 seconds after their attacks clashed, Dracula's move overpowered Regus's and it was the vampire monarch who was swallowed whole by the chaos energy and blown off Ixtal in a dramatic turn of events.
" Bow to your ancestor you upstart usurper, I commend you for having learnt my special move, however, I laugh at your fool-hardiness to use it against me.
I will not chase you today if you flee, however, if you decide to come back and fight to the bitter end, then I promise to bury you with full ceremonial honours
What will it be? " Dracula screamed in satisfaction as he watched how Regus's HP bar went down from a perfect green to a dangerous orange.
Regus was severely injured, but still alive and if Dracula truly wanted to, he could have hunted down and killed Regus right this instant, but he chose not to.
This time around he had ambushed Regus and his opponent was not expecting him which made this an unfair fight.
Dracula in all his eccentricities did not prefer to win via ambush. He was a brute and a big bully and he did not shy away from a dog-fight.
He wanted Regus to come at him with his full strength, or struggle futilely as he massacred those he swore to protect, as only then did Dracula wish to kill him.
If Regus chose to come back to Ixtal and fight to the bitter end, Dracula would have granted him the honourable death that he deserved for being a monarch level figure, however, just as he expected, Regus retreated like a coward once he recovered enough to move.
Opening a spacial portal, Regus escaped Ixtal as a defeated monarch, and with his retreat the annexation of Ixtal by a foreign power was completed.
The result of Dracula's attack was that the Aurelius clan was in shambles and the vampire society had lost 17 leaders.
In what could only be described as one of the darkest days for vampire society the prophecy of Rumi Titus had finally come true.
The primordial vampire had returned and Ixtal had fallen.
