Clarity of Death in night, Clarity of Life in Day, on a death bed lies a God, what fate lies in this cruel world?
---------------
"Hi honey, I missed you." said a woman while playing her son and 2 daughters
"I missed you to." said a man while entering his home and taking his jacket off
After a few hours when they were ready to go to bed, a Vampire, although the lowest of the low purity Vampire, snuck in.
"Who is here at this hour?" said the man
No reply
The man then grabbed his pistol then went back to bed.
When the man woke up, his entire family was dead, even though he hadn't slept for long, he was fully aware.
He saw the Vampire over his wife's corpse, the man shot.
"So you found me, hahahahahahaha, time to kill you." said the Vampire
As his fingers slightly grew and his teeth also slightly grew, his skin to ever so slightly red, he lost his mind and resorted to revealing his true form, a the lowest Purity Vampire.
The man watching him with fear, took out his gun, he shot, and shot, and shot, 'till he was sure it was dead, even then, there was still a possibility of it being alive. He waited until daylight to drag it's body out to the sun, then it burned with blue glowing light, eventually leaving a mixture of white, black, and ever so slightly blue ash.
The man faced toward the darkness and saw Vampire running at him, imagine his horror when it grabbed him and continued running, he suddenly realised not him or the Vampire were the predator in this situation, that was when he heard a Demonic laugh from the darkness.
"D-Don't l-look a-at i-it!" the Vampire pleaded to the man
"O-Okay." said the man
So the Vampire holding the man ran and ran, till he was sure he was safe at his castle.
"I'm guessing you want to kill all Vampires since the lowest purity Vampire killed your family. Can't blame ya, I specifically ordered him not to attack your family as knew you would develop hatred for Vampires. You have the potential to become a very pure Vampire, possibly even surpassing the purest one I've turned yet." said the Vampire
'Who is this Vampire?' thought the man
"Now you may be thinking 'Who am I', and the answer would be the Progenitor of the Vampires, the first 1 if you will, the Purest Vampire, you may be ever so slightly less Pure than me, if you turn into a Vampire. That thing what was chasing us was a Demon, if I went all out, I could at most destroy a limb. Oh yeah I'm Nova, you are..." said the Vampire
"I'm Shawn." said the man
"Come you need a better name than that, how about Atlas?" said Nova
"Fine, you can call me that, I will not forget my old name though." said Shawn
"If you want to turn into a Vampire, just call me, if you are about to die I will turn you as I cannot allow your potential to be wasted." said Nova
"I don't plan on dying any time soon so okay." said Shawn
"Now as for your Vampire problem, here's a list of Vampires you can kill." said Nova
Nova then handed Shawn a list of low purity Vampire he can kill.
"Kill these then you can kill more." said Nova
So then he killed those Vampires with some difficulty, but he succeeded in learning a trick to kill them without sunlight. The trick was incapacitate them with his gun then kill them with the Infernal sticks he found about.
He didn't tell Nova about the Infernal sticks as he would advise against it for a simple reason, Soul Corruption. Nova had seen many friends die of Soul Corruption because of Infernal items.
Soul Corruption is a double-edged sword, more power but the mind slowly degrades, but people of unbreakable will, will experience slight insanity while they use an Infernal item.
---
Shawn collected the blue ash from the Vampires as it can be used to create a very special item. What item? I won't reveal now. He has only impure ash.
---
Shawn's skin slowly grows to that of some kind of Werewolf but more human looking, human sounding, basically only hair and face change, Nova feared this would happen.
When a human-like race hunts only low purity Vampires, their face and hair start to change of that of a Sirius, to cure this they need to hunt mid. or high purity Vampires. If they turn into a Sirius they will succumb to their instincts, turning them into something foreign and alien in nature.
So Nova gave Shawn higher purity Vampires to kill. Shawn killed them and started looking normal, but once 1 starts hunting, they feel addicted to it, Nova only wants the Vampires under 50% of his purity killed, more than that he would start feeling the pain of them dying.
Little happened in that time, Shawn almost was close to dying a few times, but he didn't and that's important.
Shawn has enough ash to make it pure, this he begins. He has the Infernal candles, the rot of a Devil, the decayed flesh of a King, he pours the impure ash onto the rot, he puts the rot onto the decayed flesh, he sets it ablaze with the Infernal candles.
He waits, and waits for it to stop burning. He now has the pure pale ash of Vampirus Sirius. He uses it to make a Claymore, be only has enough for the hilt and begining of blade. He needs a lot more, he asks Nova if he could try to kill an enemy of Nova is hesitant to agree but he ultimately agrees.
Shawn tortures the Vampire who's name is Cosmic, son of Cosmos, grandson of the infamous Macrocosmic, and collects the blood for later use.
Cosmic gives in almost immediately but Shawn needs more blood so he makes a one-sided deal with Cosmic. The deal is Shawn gets Cosmics blood and Cosmic makes a clone of himself for Shawn to get blood from. So Shawn gets as much blood as he needs then kills the clone making the blood into ash and 79% pure ash also so purifying it will make the rest of the pale ash needed.
So he purified the ash, and had enough for the outline, so he combined it with some of his blood from when he 69% a Sirius, his blood is of enough quality, so it would work.
He swiftly poured the mixture into his mold, it hardened within 10 minutes of him pouring, he has the of Infernal wrap for his hilt, he made the rest of the parts from the leftover ash and blood mixture.
He now has a Key of Death, 1 of the things needed to go to the Netherworld. Shawn has semi-omniscient during the time he hunted Vampires.
Nova was surprised at the Key of Death Shawn has.
Shawn found where the Infernal items come from, the Inferno is where they come from in the Netherworld. And he plans to go there before dying and thus becoming a Vampire.
"Are you sure you want to attempt using the Key of Death to use a half opened portal to go to the Netherworld?" asked Nova
"Yes, for what reason do I want to go? To bask in the Inferno." said Shawn
"Let me give you a taste of the Inferno, Shawn." said Nova
Then Nova started unleashing a seal on his right arm, causing violent winds, violent fires, and blades to be thrown about. Shawn still seems unfazed because his Key of Death was protecting him from the taste of the Inferno. Nova then resealed his arm.
"Damn that hurt, you're lucky you got a powerful Key of Death, I could tell it was struggling to keep you safe. You can go but be warned this was only taste of the Inferno, you are only a human for now." said Nova
Shawn then went through the portal now fully opened and stepped into the Netherworld, it was freezing but he say the Inferno in the distance.
"That's where I have to go." said Shawn while ponting to the Inferno in the distance
4 days later Shawn encountered a few natives of the Netherworld.
"A mortal, seriously, if it was at least one of the sub-species of the Vampirus then I wouldn't mind, but a sub-sub-sub-species of the Divines, come on." complained a native
"But would a mortal seriously speak the language of the Nevils?" asked Shawn
"Insolent mortal, you dare us the name we forsaked?" said a Nevil
"Yes, and what are you going to do about it? Would you really harm someone who is an owner of a Vampirus Sirius Key?" said Shawn
"How, honestly how would a mortal have a Vampirus Sirius Key?" questioned the Nevil
"Just go to the Inferno already." said the Nevil
So Shawn continued to the Inferno, he arrived at the Inferno 6 days later.
"So you are the Daemon of the Inferno, correct? asked Shawn
"Yes, little know about my existence, are you by chance a Sirius, or a Vampirus, because I smell both on you?" asked the Daemon
"Neither, I am a human with a little bit of Sirius for now, when I return to the Earth, or you know it, 1st layer of the Helix." said Shawn
"Oh, okay, I see have a Key of Death, I underestimated you as the first layer of the Helix is soft." said the Daemon
"How do I become a Vampirus, the species Vampires are derived from?" asked Shawn
"First become a Vampire, drink Sirius blood when the Sirius is in their true form, then meet the Iris, make you deal with the Iris, what ever you do, Do, Not, Upset, The, Iris, it all depends on the deal with Iris since you are reversing evolution." said the Daemon in fear of the Iris hearing it
"Thanks, I'll be heading back now." said Shawn
-----
So Shawn headed back to Earth, he was gone a month.
"I will now be doing the 1 thing you've been keep asking me to do, I'll become a Vampire."
"Finally, I'll have a 1 as pure me!" said Nova in joy
"But you have to become a Vampirus." said Shawn
"I am Not becoming 1 of those cold-hearted beasts again. Why do you think I created the Vampires in the first place?" said Nova sternly
"I'm sure you have enough sanity as to not go back to your instincts." said Shawn
"Fine, just close your eyes and be warned, when I made the Vampires I made their bites make the person feel pleasure instead." Nova said then bit Shawn and inserted his blood through his neck
"Ah, you weren't lying." said Shawn in pleasure
Shawn then felt his blood run cold, he was now being transformed into a Vampire, a being that feeds blood, but soon he went need when he with Iris.
"So now you are a Vampire, how does it feel?" said Nova
"Honestly, not half bad" replied Shawn
"Time to meet with the Iris." said Shawn
"Do not speak my name so casually, mortal" said a booming and commanding voice
"So you are the Iris, I wonder when the rest of the eye went, scratch that, the rest of the body." mocked Shawn
"You bastard, I'll at least let you become a Vampirus before I kill you, it beneath me to kill a human." said the Iris
The Iris then turned Shawn into a Vampirus.
"I'll return to my former glory as Death, more commonly known as Kronos now." said Shawn
"No, not possible, I watched him die." said the Iris in disbelief
"Fuck, who have I been harboring this past year?" said Nova in fear
"I'll go by Atlas this time haha." said Atlas
