The Demon Child - Awakening

I blacked out for a moment, and I awoke a second after. In that short period, everyone in the room was on the floor, each person with blood pouring out of a part of their body. I then noticed something else, the taste of blood in my mouth, my stomach pain was also subsiding.

Before I blacked out, I remember something vague about my stomach being in shambles, perhaps that was the cause. Although it couldn't have been, it was soon after I stopped seeing triples of everything, perhaps that was the cause. I would have to research later, there were more people in the castle.

I made my entire body outline red and decided to use my ice source to create a platform. I didn't fall through the building, the source was allowing me not to fall. I made my way towards the door and poked my head through the door.

"I killed everyone in the room," I said.

"We heard, what did you do there?" Lucyfer asked.

"After I disappeared, I went through the door and killed Gener, I decided to reveal myself, and then I blacked out, but before that, I had a feeling in my stomach, hunger,"

"Well don't dawdle on the present, we need to get out of here, we don't know how many people are still in the castle,"

"You're right,"

"Let's go,"

I went with Lucyfer and the other's and we were able to make it back to camp safely. I then dismissed myself and went through the demon gate, back to my realm. Instead of waking up in my human body, I was still in my demon form, and I was at the demon gate, not at home. My markings had also changed in appearance.

Firstly, they covered my entire body instead of just on my back. Instead of looking like a large snowflake, they looked more like lightning bolts over my entire body. What I found most interesting is that I had a circle on each palm and a four-pointed star on my c.h.e.s.t.

I decided to look through it with my eyes which were able to see the soul and saw something interesting. There were outlines where the circles and the star were. Looking further into the markings, I tried summoning my incarnate weapon normally.

As I said the normal chant, all three of the shapes started to glow. Soon after, I felt something and a chain popped out of each shape. I tried to move it around but the chains just moved when I thought about moving them. I decided to chant one of my special chants to see if anything happened.

"With the silent sword which appears at night, manifest to me, come to me, Dagger,"

I looked to my right-hand chain and saw that the end of the chain changed to a dagger. I then remembered about Xirax saying that I had three more chains on my back. I tried to move them to my view and there I saw it, three more chains, my incarnate weapon wasn't a mystery anymore.

My incarnate weapons were chains, not only I could control them, but I could also customize the end of each one. I settled at the fact about my incarnate weapon and I went into the soul world, keeping calm. I walked out of the cave and started to run to my house.

After half an hour running, I made it to Jododam's office. I got myself out of my invisible state and I started to talk.

"I'm back," I said.

"That's a nifty little ability you now got there Dyestral," Jododam replied.

"It's quite a long story, but I can tell you that Gener's dead, not physical injuries, but his soul has left his body,"

"That's quite a story, but could you please relay the information you gathered on this mission, who was involved?"

"Could you get a piece of paper?"

"Of course,"

As Jododam got the piece of paper, I sat down and summoned a chain from my c.h.e.s.t with a pen of the end. It had some red ink in it, so I started to draw out three individuals which I saw in Gener's meeting. After about a minute, my pictures were completed.

"Well done Dyestral,"

"Why thank you,"

"How did you get these at such good detail, I've heard from one of your other children that you could shoot a bullseye at 200 metres away,"

"I did have that ability, but now I've lost that, instead I can see soul, aura and the source residue of people,"

"Anything else you have gained with your time away?"

"I can also control if I want to be in Antrite and Antral, that's how I just appeared, these chains are my incarnate weapon and this,"

I made my right hand's outline red and tried to touch the desk, it went right through it. Jododam slammed the desk, laughing.

"The ability to pass through solid objects! Amazing!" Jododam yelled.

"Not entirely, I believe attacks that can touch the soul can still hit me, could you try to hit my hand with an attack with source,"

"Let's hope your pain tolerance is high enough,"

"Your self-regeneration has increased in strength, and you didn't even yell in pain Dyestral!"

"A major explanation of it is because of my body underwent a tremendous amount of pain, making it so that my body doesn't feel as much,"

Jojodam took a look at his fist and noticed that some dew had appeared on it.

"Your body froze the water vapour in the air, turning it into dew," Jododam explained. "And I can still feel your freezing skin on mine,"

"That's not going to back down anyone strong, and another thing, my source of air has lightning being coloured black and white," I made my right hand crackle with it.

"A very rare combination Dyestral, I think you're ready,"

"I'm ready for what?"

Jododam got up and got a wine glass and a sharp knife. He then slit his wrist and blood poured into the glass to the brim.

"Choose to become my disciple of chosen, or to suffer the consequences,"
