Vampire God in the Apocalypse

Chapter 199: 196. Immortal flame

"So, is it the war that wants to occur again?" Hannah asked, and Lisa nodded.

"The witches, in order to preserve the natural order, are fixing the destruction caused by the war with our magic. However, with the natural order gone, this continent is going to be in ruins," Lisa sighed, looking a bit sad.

"But can't the witches do something?" Hannah asked with a raised brow, and Lisa nodded.

"We can if we want. Last time, a lot of us lost our lives. But now we aren't being held by the natural order, so we can do it if we want," Lisa said with a smile, and Hannah nodded to her.

There was a brief moment of silence between the two women, and Hannah was the one to speak up first.

"You said I'm your descendant. Which means I've got some kind of witch power, right?" Hannah asked, still looking at the floor.

"Yes, yes you do. But it will be risky to release the power now."

"Hm? Why is that?" Hannah asked while looking at her mother this time.

"You were born with demonic energy, as your soul was too powerful for the witches to handle. You probably don't understand, but demonic energy can corrupt a person to be evil. I'm going to release the seal placed on you, but you will follow my guidance on how to balance the contradicting forces in your body so that you won't be corrupted," Lisa explained as much as she could for now.

Even if she explained the entire thing to Hannah right now, she doubted Hannah would understand any of it.

"I understand. I'm ready," Hannah said with a stern gaze, and Lisa saw the determination in her eyes.

"I see determination in you. Is there a reason why you want to grow stronger?" Lisa asked with concern.

"Too many people close to me have died. I want to be able to protect the ones I have left," Hannah said, and Lisa nodded and closed her eyes.

A bright red light was emitted from her fingertips, and she began to move them around in the air. The light left a static line, which later formed an array of shapes.

Lisa began chanting in an unknown language while drawing symbols within the shapes, and the wind around them began to gather, causing disruption in the surroundings.

Two people wearing red hoods appeared and formed a transparent barrier to keep the magic from destroying everything.

The people around began to panic and run in the opposite direction while Gazan stood at the top of the general's building, watching in amusement.

"Interesting, to think the one my son will marry will be an unnatural," the dragon king chuckled, and then he suddenly vanished from that location.

Hannah, who was within the whirlwind, felt a sudden heat rise up in her body. A light began to radiate from her stomach region, and she gritted her teeth as it was uncomfortable.

It felt like something was moving around in her stomach.

Meanwhile, Lisa finished drawing the complex array of shapes and symbols, and it all began to burn in red flames.

She opened her eyes and looked at her daughter with a smile. As if knowing, Hannah nodded toward her mother, and Lisa pointed the formation toward her.

"Unseal."

With that one word from Lisa, Hannah shouted as a large surge of energy escaped her body, causing the energy within the barrier to spike.

The witches that were outside keeping all the energy together were pressured and had to increase the size of the barrier for easier circulation.

The dust soon settled, and Lisa was smiling as she looked at her daughter.

Hannah opened her eyes as she found herself on the ground, and she used her hands to help herself up. She suddenly saw red scales on her hands and claws protruding from her fingers.

She felt an extension on her back and she looked to see two pairs of beautiful red wings. Her eyes glowed a bright red color, and she felt stronger than she had ever been.

She had slimmed down a bit on some sides. Her waist and body were more refined, and she now resembled a demon of seduction. On top of her head were two black horns, which made her even scarier to the humans witnessing this.

[You have successfully awakened your true nature. You have successfully evolved to a sixth-class creature.]

[Excess amount of energy is being converted to spirit points. You have evolved to a fifth-class creature.]

[New abilities have been discovered.]

Hannah smiled as she was finally able to evolve, and she looked at her mother, who was in front of her, looking at her with a gentle and warm gaze.

'Hm. It feels like extra arms on my back.' Hannah thought, and she flapped her wings and took off to the sky.

The witches opened the barrier, and she flew out. The wind brushed against her skin as she flew at incredible speeds. She reached more than 2,000 meters high and looked down.

She had never felt this free in her life before, and she smiled and dived back down with even more speed.

She landed on the ground with a loud bang, and then she was enveloped with red flames and reverted back to her human form.

"Thank you, Mother," Hannah said, and then her mother came toward her and hugged her, taking Hannah by surprise.

"Your form even looks cooler than mine," Gracia chuckled from the side and came toward them.

"Now that we know about each other, there's no need to worry about talking freely in front of you anymore," Gracia was delighted.

She would finally be able to talk to her sister normally, and she pulled Hannah to the side.

"Now, I have a lot to tell you about our family. Come on," Gracia said as she pulled Hannah with her toward another isolated side, and then Gracia smiled toward Lisa and she returned the gesture.

"Are you okay, mistress?" one of the witches behind her asked, and Lisa's face began to turn pale as blood leaked from the side of her mouth.

"I'm fine. As long as she's happy, I will be fine. I just used up a lot of spirit energy and mana." Lisa then went with the witches and vanished into a column of flames.
