Chaos and Order - A Multiverse Fanfic

0075 Blood Prophecy - The King In Yellow!!!

Kai sat in the middle of the room in a meditative position.

A silvery mist came slithering out of his closed left eye, took the form of a white serpent, and yawned, adjusting her fangs. A light trail of blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, suggesting she must have had her lunch just now.

Hisss!

-Sleep- she said.

Kai opened his eyes, and two narrow reptilian slits greeted his surroundings coldly. His body was red hot, emanating pulses of boiling steam that blurred his body.

He parted his lips, the muscles in his throat contracting like twisted wires.

Hisss!

-Go- Kai said, almost turning his hissing into a word.

The mist slithered to the part below his navel and coiled into a tiny ball of condensed coldness.

Selene is eating a lot these days, as I had expected, Kai thought. The Contestants below the 2nd Set are just a stronger version of common people. From the 4th floor onwards, though, they truly enter the path of magical bodies. Though not of good quality, 4th-floor Contestants can serve as a cheap substitute for magical flesh.

Kai had thought of this before cutting apart Heavy Block and turning him into meatballs.

He wanted Selene to grow up as soon as she could by letting her eat better food. Neither Selene nor Kai knew what was the condition for her growth. But remembering that she was but a child, Kai figured out that she needed what all children need as a part of their growth process. A good diet.

Does she have any restriction on eating Pokemon and benefiting from it? Kai wondered, a devious beam of light shining out of his slitted pupils.

4 hours had passed since Meg left.

Kai and Petyr had scoured the movie many times over by now. Meg had dissected it, but these two had ripped the plot's soul apart, putting forward schemes more vicious than each other. Kai turned his head to look at Petyr, who was still watching the movie for the umpteenth time.

He is right, Kai sighed. I should focus on my own problems for now, and not on leveling up my Traitor Title Status.

Unlike Meg, who was just here to complete her mission, Kai had many things to do within this Side Mission.

Killing 4th-floor Contestants, leveling up his Proficiencies, Titles, and Dementor's Blood Essence, watching over Selene, and now, becoming a Pokemon Trainer. The movie came as the most obvious god's blessing to him, and that too, at the right time.

With the help of the movie, Kai could find out the data on Artifacts available in the city.

He had already found out the easiest Milestones he could complete by paying a price of 150 Mission Credits. It had all the stuff Kai had expected, and much more, always taking a darker turn at the end.

"Your plan might work, my lord," Petyr said. "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Kai had made a preliminary plan the moment he had seen the movie for the first time. After watching it many times over, he hadn't changed it, instead its roots had only gone deeper into him.

"Heh!" Kai sniggered. "Why wouldn't I?"

Though they didn't mention what this plan was, Petyr and Kai exchanged a glance before breaking it for good. "I think I have found the solution for the trouble of Emotions Manipulation," Kai mumbled. "Mother always used to say that if you are having issues figuring out something from outside, then look within. I will do just that."
