Reborn as A Snake! (3.) [ONGOING]

(38). - The Vessel of the Monarch [II].

      "But I suppose for this morning... I am also your executioner."

Dinyu shed a slight sweat as soon as Vien said that, however kept his wide grin plastered across his face. The man simply exhaled, chuckling lightly afterwards before shaking his head lightly.

"My my — Aren't you a confident one... My executioner? Please.... You already saw that killing me will do nothing."

Dinyu slated a little bit to the right, before moving his right arm behind him, tightening his hand into a fist.

Vien chuckled herself, before straightening out and looking at him with a calm and even a warm, friendly smile across her face — which was enough to send the man into an even greater state of worry.

"Oh no, I'm aware of that. Killing a deathman really is a useless thing...."

"So you do get it. That's good to hear."

Dinyu cut her off, laughing a little bit, before bringing his right arm back to the front and placing his palms together. Then, he pulled them apart, conjuring a thing blade once more.

Once it was fully formed, he vanished and appeared immediately afterwards, dashing towards Vien — gripping the thin blade tightly, a psychotic expression across his face. Vien simply exhaled, opening her eyes and giving Dinyu a cold glare.

"But who says I have to kill you?"

She stated quietly. Dinyu raised an eyebrow, before his eyes widened. Instantly, he seized his forward momentum, before leaping back, creating as much distance between him and Vien, before leaping up into the air and landing once more on thin air like a hard surface.

Then, he looked down at Vien, breathing a bit heavily — his pupils slightly shaking.

"That aura..."

He shed a sweat, as more and more of Viens magical energy began to leak from her body, while a calm, content smile was plastered across her facial expression.

"What's the matter? You aren't scared are you?"

"Impossible.... No, no — this should be impossible."

Dinyus entire body shook, as shivers ran down his entire back.

"Their kind was annihilated thousands of years ago... How is she still alive?"

Dinyu looked at Vien with a much more frightened expression. From his eyes, Vien looked a lot different to her usual butler appearance.

All he saw was a figure — a vague, human-like figure. However, the figures presence was nothing like a humans. It was monstrous — it was powerful.... It was.... Beastly.

Dinyu took in a deep breath, before exhaling and standing up, staring down at Vien with a more cold gaze now.

"I never thought I would ever see one of you alive..."

He stated, before smirking and chuckling.

"But.... Though I didn't expect it, I suppose this is a good opportunity. A real Demon Beast has appeared before me. It is a miracle.... A miracle!"

Dinyu extended his arms up above him, before looking up at the sky, his pupils narrowing.

"Yes... It must have been fate. I get to see, how powerful I am. I who has built myself and my entire organisation after your kinds image."

He looked back down at Vien, before snapping his left hands fingers. In an instant, many, many barely noticeable, thin blades formed in the air around him.
