Book 6: Chapter 2

Scarlet

I let out a light yawn after dealing with this most recent Void Assault the name that people have started calling what were formerly called Demonic Assaults since now theyre just Corrupted Fractures opening up and void creatures attacking instead of demons. Meanwhile I float up high in the sky lying down on a reclined throne made of blood metal while staring up at the moon that had just returned to its normal shade.

Its been boring. Very boring. Ever since Tar left for the rest of the fae tournament.

None of the fae have been allowed to leave the tournament universe since, and none of us Guardians or demons can enter it either.

In all honesty, I could probably just brute force my way into it through breaking into the void using a corrupted fracture and then finding them, but that wouldnt amount to much. Not when Oberon could just teleport me back out. Plus itd be disrespectful and probably get us disqualified.

So Im left here defending Earth without much else to do aside from video games.

Gramps is dealing with protecting Tartarus from the Corrupted Fractures, so I dont have to go there at least. Not that Id be able to, what with the reality energy requirements of the Fractures and Gates no longer being able to handle my crossing.

At best I could go there using the Fae Kings teleportation power. But I dont have that, so I cant.

And King Oberon is still busy with the tournament.

Thankfully both Gramps and I have managed to keep the casualties to a minimum during this void invasion. So theres that. And the Voided Overlord is still stuck in the void without being able to escape.

We wont be at crisis level emergency until after it breaks into the universe itself and starts destroying it just from its very presence.

Which thankfully shouldnt be for a while.

I just hope the stupid fae tournament ends soon.Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

My thoughts come to a halt when the moon turns a glowing shade of black once more, following which I sense tens of thousands of Corrupted Fractures appearing across the planet.

I let out a sigh before activating that really uncomfortable skill and summoning thousands of clones from droplets of my blood Ive left scattered across the planet. One of the skills I bought with that massive amount of skill points I had just because its even more uncomfortable to do it with Ruler of Blood.

Since I can do it with Ruler of Blood. I can do anything blood magic related with it. So long as I figure out how.

But not as well as a skill. And Perfect Blood Clone, a legendary skill that lets me make a perfect clone of myself albeit with my mind stretched across them making it pretty much impossible to form a coherent sentence if I have too many clones, is very uncomfortable to do without the skill. Its uncomfortable with it actually. Just even moreso without it.

Plus hard to figure out.

Although its not necessarily that its hard to form a coherent sentence in one of the clones, its more like its hard to focus on one particular clone hard enough to do so. I can see what theyre seeing, but to share more than two of their senses is a bit much.

And I need it for either sight or hearing.

I can still think coherently from here.

So I do just that. Continue lying down on my lovely reclined throne while controlling thousands of clones to destroy the Corrupted Fractures and kill the void creatures. Almost all of which are Class I or Class II. With only a few Class III.

Meaning they die in an instant.

I let out another sigh as I cancel all of my clones, reaching behind my head while wearing my original outfit. One Ive taken a shine to over that stuffy armor from before.

Not like I need armor after all. And Im making my outfit now with my own magic, so might as well wear what feels most comfortable.

Some time passes before the moon finally returns to normal again, the Guardians handling the rest of the Corrupted Fractures.

This really is boring.
