《Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn as a Vampire Dragon with a System 》Chapter 10: The Supreme Deities Decision

-----
Within the confines of the galaxy, deep into the galaxy's core, where immense quantities of stars and energies fluctuated within like rivers of effervescent colors, a powerful will was surrounded by many strong entities.
All these entities had come here in the form of avatars made through a minuscule part of their divine souls, but all of them seemed to exude a colorful aura of enormous power.
The entities glared at the gargantuan mass of countless stars, the core of the Nyx Galaxy.
These beings had all shapes and sizes, and were over a dozen of them…
One resembled a gigantic sea of blood in the slight shape of a human, with enormous bat-like wings and claws, and glowing crimson-red eyes… it resembled a crimson-red specter the size of a planet… this was the Avatar of the Supreme Deity of Blood.
At its side, there was a gigantic mass of colorful gases and small stars in the shape of a dragon, with large wings, four limbs, a long tail, and a large maw, furiously glaring at the center of the galaxy with gleaming aquamarine eyes… this was the Avatar of the Supreme Deity of Pride.
There were other Supreme Deities as well, all of them surrounding the Core of the Galaxy, one of them, in particular, resembled an immensely bright aurora that released many rainbow-colored illusory gases… this was the avatar of the Supreme Deity of Brightness.
Surrounded by the dark void and the countless stars and planets, the Supreme Deities glared at the Galaxy's core.
Despite their enormous presences and power, they were merely messengers of even greater entities that surpassed the power of the Galaxy Core itself, who were watching over from light-years away through the eyes of their servants.
The Galaxy Core gleamed brighter than before, and it suddenly spoke with the voice of a woman.
"It has been done. The Cursed Child of Chaos has now been cursed by my power. Are you satisfied?" it asked.
All the entities of all shapes, sizes, and colors smiled and nodded.
"It is the least you could do, Galaxy. And you better do everything you can to restraint that being. We can't let such an abomination wonder the universe as it pleases after having been made from the corpses of our ancestors who had been defeated in battle… Those that died in the war one million ago need to be honored, not used as mere materials for the creation of that abominable chimera!" roared the enormous crimson-red specter, the Supreme Deity of Blood, as many of the Deities around him nodded in affirmation.

"That's right, the Supreme Deity of Blood is right!"
"Indeed… That damned little ant of Ainz… What he had dared to do…"
"He was defeated but the barrier he erected…"
"It was impossible to destroy it, I already told you. And it was better to simply wait. Although I never thought that a mere Pseudo Demi Deity would be capable of erecting a barrier that contained the Origin of the Outer Void within. It seems that he had already sacrificed a large piece of his soul to the Outer Gods," said the Supreme Deity of Brightness.
"So those damn grotesque beings had acted in favor of that abominable skeleton and its chimera!? How untasteful!" sighed the Supreme Deity of Blood.
"We can't certainly be capable of oppressing a barrier made with the Origin of the Outer Void, as we had not touched into that plane yet… Only our Masters… But they wouldn't be as interested in this to step in here and act. After all, they are way above galaxies and if they were to be bothered to move by a mere pseudo-demi-deity, it would lower their prestige as beings above our useless affairs…" said the Supreme Deity of Pride.
"Nonetheless, it is our duty as their children to do everything we can to keep the name of our families clean… To think that there was a traitor amongst our families that dared to open an opportunity for that skeleton to steal those corpses!" sighed the Supreme Deity of Blood.
"Well, both of them had already been broken apart and sealed, for at least a billion years so they can repent. Afterward, they will be reincarnated as mere F-Rank Mortals and thrown into a wild world, whatever will be their fate will not be of our incumbency…" sighed the Supreme Deity of Pride.
"It seems that my lords have punished those traitors well. I had done the same with Ainz, so don't worry. His soul has been fragmented and sealed into a formation of perpetual light, where he will be slowly purified of all the death attribute inside of his soul for the next one hundred years. Afterward, we shall forcefully convert him into a Light Spirit to serve us as a slave," said the Supreme Deity of Brightness.

"Hmph, that is the least that being could do to repent! Albeit, it would be better if we could devour it, but we would never eat something as disgusting as that skeleton's soul, albeit throwing him into a black hole might be interesting," said the Supreme Deity of Blood.
"Oh, for sure. We can change his fate to whatever my lords please," said the Supreme Deity of Brightness.
"Good. And now that the abomination has been cursed by the Galaxy, it has been forcefully changed into a Faction that makes it the enemy of everyone! In fact, a crusade to exterminate him and save the galaxy will soon begin! How exciting," laughed the Supreme Deity of Pride.
"Heh, shall we participate in it?" asked the Supreme Deity of Blood.
"Sure thing. We must exert the power of our Families and honor our master's and our all-powerful ancestors," said the Supreme Deity of Pride.
"Though, I believe that going after him would be a waste of our own energy. After all, we didn't ask the Galaxy to curse it for us to go after it, the entire population of the galaxy itself will go after it!" laughed the Supreme Deity of Blood.
"Indeed, my lords. Please, leave this to me and my Heralds," said the Supreme Deity of Brightness.
"You're a good servant, woman. Perhaps we might let you one day join our family," said the Supreme Deity of Blood.
"Indeed. As the youngest Supreme Deity here, you are filled with talent, keep striving forward and work hard!" said the Supreme Deity of Pride.
"Yes! Your words are music to my ears, my lords! I shall do as you please and become someone fitting to join one of your families. I will surely do so!" said the Supreme Deity of Brightness.
"Good… That aberrant chimera will be destroyed in no time! After that, we will dissect it and slowly tear it down to bring back the pieces it was made of to their respective graves, alongside the materials that the skeleton stole," said the Supreme Deity of Blood.
"Hm… How unfortunate for that soul to have been born in a body that is abhorred by everything…" sighed another Supreme Deity, who resembled a sea of darkness.
"Supreme Deity of Darkness are you pitying that fiend?!" asked the Supreme Deity of Brightness.
"Ah! Not at all… Nothing, please, never mind my words," said the Supreme Deity of Darkness.
The other Supreme Deities glared at her while squinting their eyes, but before anyone could say anything else, the Galaxy Core spoke.
"Now that we are done with this, I would request all of you to leave me alone," she said.
"Hmph, you're being way too prideful for a mere galaxy…!"
"But so be it, we are done here…"
"But if our masters require your assistance again, you better obey!"
The Supreme Deities quickly disappeared out of thin air, as they were mere avatars, they turned into cosmic dust in an instant, the real bodies being light-years apart from the galaxy core.
The Galaxy Core sighed in relief, as it could finally relax. It was an entity stronger than these Supreme Deities, but not stronger than their all-powerful masters who were even stronger than Galaxies.
So, what she felt pressured by were the glares from these entities residing far away from the galaxy, which directly glanced at her through the eyes of the avatars of their servants, the Supreme Deities.
"The child of Chaos has been reborn in this side of the Universe… How unfortunate. It would have been better if you were reborn in the calmer and more desolate areas of it… Here, constant bloodshed between worlds happens every second, as the spatial walls were destroyed two billion years ago, everyone can run freely around… I am sorry, Child of Chaos, but this… is the thing I had to do to maintain my life… At the very least, I modified it a bit. I hope… this can help you fight against your fate…"
The Galaxy Core sighed, pitying the fate that awaited Chaos.

8 109Inglorious Bastard
My life is in no way unbearable or hard, I fully recognize that it could always get much worse in a multitude of ways. Be happy with what you have and all that. But the future looks bleak and boring no matter how I look at it. Spend 40~50 years trying to educate the bossy rich kids of Pinecove private school and retire having wasted my life or throw everything away in hopes of a more fulfilling job, risking to go under? This world has no place left for excitement and adventure - everything there is to explore and discover was found a long time ago; everything that can be created is here already in one way or another; because of laws, borders, inflation and back-breaking taxes an average Joe just can't do anything too crazy or too ambitious, lest they decide living in prison or being penniless is a great way to lead your life. If only it was possible to be released from all constraints and start anew in some other place, in a different time. Drop the masks and live a life with no regrets. Impossible and childish wish, I know. But a man can dream...

Those who wish upon him, a stranger, the goal of saving the world. A world coming undone by the powers that are beyond those of mortals; our young soul will be thrust amidst the conflict of it all.
