SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God - Chapter 604

Chapter 604: You heartless demon!
Right at this moment, Blood Reign’s voice also chimed in. “My Lord, the useless guy lied to you. This is not a pocket realm. This is not a dimensional seed. This is just a small fragment he had somehow gotten his hands on.”

“If this small fragment loses all of its integrity, then this entire dimensional space would indeed collapse into the void, and we would be tossed into the void as well. I would have warned you before, but I did not think that the spatial realm was so weak that it would completely rupture.”

“However… this thing should never have been able to summon a void. That is the concerning part. I have never seen such instability. Not even from a dying dimensional shard. The probability of such an event occurring… one in a million!”

“The fact that the void formed on its own means this fragment has been damaged for a long time. Something corrupted it. Tainted its structure. Unless…” She paused.

“Unless this fragment never belonged to Umbra’s Hand. Unless it came from something… older. Something the system buried. Something that was never meant to be opened.”

Damon nodded. Why all of this was happening right now was not important! It was happening, and something needed to be done. He took out his teleportation tokens, and all of them seemed useless. Blood Gate did not work as well.

“You piece of shit! If we could teleport, then wouldn’t I have done it already?” The Third was livid. The void roared, cutting him off.

Damon also did not think so. Without wasting time, he called Azuna. He did not want to call her earlier because it would hamper her progress, but the situation had changed now, and he did not want to take any chances.

“My master.” The gentle and smiling world spirit immediately appeared, wrapping her hands around Damon. “You haven’t called me in a while, master. I missed you so much.”

She puckered her lips and was going to plant a big kiss on Damon’s cheek, but her expression immediately changed. Azuna blinked, then looked around the collapsing realm. “Master, this dimensional fragment is about to collapse. Shall I stabilize it or destroy it?”

The Third stared at Azuna with wide eyes, disbelief written all over his face. “Is that a… wait. You are telling me you had an entire world spirit all this time?” As someone who dabbled in space magic, he immediately recognized the terrifying aura swirling around her. His jaw dropped. “That… that’s a spatial spirit! A high-tier one! You motherf… how the hell?!”

Azuna tilted her head, ignoring him as if he were an especially annoying bug crawling on a window. “Master,” she repeated gently, “give the order. I can try to stabilize this thing or I can shatter it completely.”

Before Damon could answer, the entire mirrored ground shook violently. A massive crack tore through the space like lightning, and a chunk of the world peeled away and was sucked into the spiraling void.

Azuna’s eyes widened a fraction. “Correction. Stabilizing it will not work. The void is already feeding on the core. The structure is too corrupted.”

The Third shrieked. “Don’t say that so calmly! That’s my dimension, you bitch! I suffered through that fucking Umbra’s trial again and again for decades to get my hands on this thing! Please! Please! I will do anything. Save my baby, please.”

Azuna whipped her head toward him, eyes narrowing. She then raised a finger, silencing him. “Shut up, insect. I wasn’t talking to you.”

Damon, however, suddenly found himself interested in this new piece of information. “You got this from the Umbra’s trial?” He asked again.

The Third nodded his head absent-mindedly as his eyes darted here and there. Everything was getting destroyed and blown away into nothingness as they were speaking. Why the fuck were they having a round table discussion right now? Is this really the time and place to discuss everything in detail?

But Damon did not seem to care. He did not panic. “Azuna, you told me before that I could always enter your world if anything happens. Is this still the case?”

Azuna quickly answered. “Yes, Master. We can all leave right this instant. I cannot say for sure that we will be able to get back to your world any time soon, but we will not be in any immediate danger. I am still somewhat bound to your world so it won’t be impossible. It will just take a long time to find our way back.”

“Alright then. Try your best to stabilize this space fragment if you can. Otherwise, it looks like I will be visiting you today after all.”

Azuna immediately got to work. The Third looked at both of them and nearly burst into tears.

Azuna ignored him entirely. Spatial threads, thin, golden, unfurled from her fingertips in elegant spirals. They wrapped around the cracks in the collapsing world like delicate embroidery. Each thread hummed with power, trying to bind the fragment together.

A golden sword then appeared in her hands, and she started slicing off parts of the world left and right. Each swing was graceful, and every stroke severed a collapsing section of the fragment cleanly, cutting away infected spatial pockets like a surgeon removing rotten flesh. Broken clusters of mirror-reality fell off in chunks, feeding the void.

The Third watched with growing horror. “Wh–why are you cutting my dimension?!” he shrieked. “You’re supposed to fix it, not butcher it! That’s my home! My baby! My precious fragment! Stop chopping it like vegetables!”

Azuna didn’t even look at him. “Corrupted sections must be excised,” she said flatly, slicing off another spiraling tower of mirror-pillar as if pruning a garden. “If left intact, they accelerate collapse.”

Another swing, clean, precise, merciless. A whole wing of the dimension flickered, cracked, and then vanished harmlessly. The Third clutched his chest. “You’re killing it! You heartless demon! STOP!”

Azuna’s eyes sharpened. “I am stabilizing it. Your fragment is riddled with spatial decay. I am removing the worst of it so the core will hold. The void is anyway destroying everything much faster than I am.”
