Esper Harem in the Apocalypse

Chapter 482 Son of Lord

"Y-You… you are bluffing! How can you be the Lord?!"

"That's right. I was bluffing. But was I?" he smirked. "When I was around a year old, my father took me to the Lord's summit, where the Lord named me. That Lord… was none other than my mother, Nyxia.

But she was the Lord's incarnation at that time, not my mother. Even when she had sealed the Lord's power, she had to wake up as a Lord for the summit. And soon after, the Lord was killed. You all thought my father was the Lord because none of the vampires had ever been to the Lord's Summit.

The Lord has stated that one person from one race is enough as a representative, and none of you oldies wanted to face the Lord.

Why would you? After all, every single being had to fear the Lord, but people like you didn't want to fear anyone. You all thought he was the Lord because he had always attended the summit.

You kept close eyes on him and noticed he was absent at certain times when the Lord was awake. Thus, you jumped to the conclusion that he was the Lord. And you got him killed. After his death, mother let go of her powers of Lord.

Lord was said to do anything, but he couldn't save my father even after that. She was disappointed in the Lord, so she manifested the power of the cursed child and got rid of the Lord's power.

She killed the Lord inside her, and because of that, you all thought my father was truly the Lord. And that you were free from the Lord, but you were well aware that a new incarnation will be born. You all waited and waited for the day of incarnation and killed innocent newborns.

You never even tried to put them on the throne to confirm. You… you all don't deserve to live, but your citizens need you. I had no proof for your crimes, even though I knew you were behind them.

Of course, when all that happened, I was still naive… as always. But you all were stupid.

The Lord's incarnation was never said to be born as a newborn. It was 'the birth of the Lord's incarnation', not 'the birth as Lord's incarnation', although I got confused many times about it.

So the next incarnation could have been a dying old vampire or a kid. Yet, you target someone who has just come to this world.

After the absence of the next Lord's incarnation, I had hope that I was the next Lord. After all, I was the son of the Lord, so it would make sense for me to be the next Lord. However, I hadn't received a single power from the Lord.

I asked my mother about it, and she said that's not how it works. The Lord's power couldn't be shared or transferred from parent to child. And, of course, she was a normal vampire when she gave birth to me.

Every year, I would go to the Lord's chamber and try to sit on the throne, but I would be disappointed each time. I had given up on it. But I still possessed a mysterious power that was akin to Lord. It never made sense to me, and I eventually stopped looking for an answer to the question that didn't exist.

And then… I found the next Lord, who is not very happy right now. And neither am I nor anyone.

So Luis, leave this instance, and I will forget everything. I am ready to forgive you for all your sins. If you turn around and never show your face again, you would be glad that I forgave you."

"Hehehaha! Everything you said about us is true! But you were wrong about one thing. I or anyone here didn't kill your father. It was Vesier! He was behind everything! Even this war and all the sins we have committed, Vesier had suggested the idea. He is the smartest vampire in this world or even the universe.

And I am sure he is planning something at this moment too. Even if you kill us, Vesier will get your head one day. And in the end… he will resurrect us using the forbidden magic, and we will reign this world for eternity!"

"What a joke…" Virgil shook his head in disbelief and uttered, "Vesier is… enjoying his time in a shiny box. I went to look for him after he was missing, and I found him. He was taking a trip in space, which was organized by none other than the Lord."

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Luis asked with a baffled look on his face.

"If I have to say it… the Lord punished him for his crimes."

"..."

"Oh, by the way, did you know it is forbidden to say 'Lord' aloud unless you are saying 'Oh my Lord!'? And that calamity would ensue on those who say it without any respect or in mockery.

I guess… you have filled the pot of your sins, and now it's overflowing. I changed my mind. No one is leaving alive. You have lived enough and committed enough crimes. If I let you live more, you will do more sin, and I will regret letting you live.

As the humans say, 'You can't teach an old dog new tricks.'. It is time for you to depart from this world and vanquish for forever. Goodbye, old friend."

Virgil turned around and walked away after saying.

"Where do you think you are—!"

Luis' voice stopped mid-sentence, followed by dead silence.

Virgil looked back at the battlefield and muttered, "...and so… it begins."

The battlefield was empty, with not a minute sign of any life. They all disappear into nothing as though they never existed.

"Now I have two continents to rule. Or should I just say… this entire world? Well, let's go check up on Rudy. Knowing him, I am expecting to see a bizarre scene on the battlefield."

Even though Virgil was prepared to see something bizarre, what he saw sent chills down his spine, quite literally.
