The beautiful singing voices of the mermaids echoed throughout the area, causing the battle to change directions.
Even as the battle progressed, werewolves, ghosts, vampires, lizard men, and every species working for Gudan began dropping to the ground like flies.
Some of them fell to their knees, looking at the ground with perplexity as they gained back control over their bodies.
Deka and the rest of the elves stopped attacking when they not+iced that the enemies were just falling unconscious.
"Hey! What the hell!" Jiro shouted on his mounted Deerhugs.
Even Latina and Diana were surprised at the sudden change in events.
"Is this some kind of trap?" Deka questioned himself.
All of a sudden, a puff of smoke appeared beside him and Orland emerged.
"Relax, there is nothing to be worried about, the battle has already been won." Orland voiced out.
"Whoo! You hear that sis? We won!" Jiro yelled, laughing as he rode around in circles.
Only one person was still feeling restless, and that was Deka, whose eyes were focused on the mansion.
And just inside the demolish+ed mansion, lies Sato and the leader of vampires known as the Duke of Nervek.
Sato stood at a distance, watching Vlad from afar. He was still in a disarray from the thought of Helix's silence, but he knew he couldn't go back.
"Duke, I…"
"It isn't wise to stay so close to me." Duke voiced out before Sato could utter a word.
"Unless you truly want to die, I'd advise you to take your people and leave Nervek,".
'Leave? Heeh, he couldn't actually be planning to use that eye?' Sato thought to himself, 'My mission hasn't changed, I have to take that eye from him no matter what.'
After having a deep conversation with himself, something he would have normally done with Helix, he began to walk toward Vlad.
"Please, Duke of Nervek, I know this might sound unreasonable upon first hearing but… I'd like to ask you to lend me that eye of yours!" Sato yelled.
Vlad immediately burst into laughter, "You want my eye? Pretty bold of you." He uttered.
"You are not the first to want to wield this curse that I bear, honestly, the things people would do for power." Vlad added.
"Except I don't need it for power!" Sato yelled, feeling hesitant to continue speaking for a while before he gained the courage.
"About a year from now, the kingdom of Fiona, ruled by demon lord Jira, waged war on everyone in its Kingdom and used their magic essence to awaken some kind of beast to steal the power of a God! Your eye is what leads them to victory, it sounds insane, but that eye of yours has a connection with the Gods!" Sato let out, pushing every thought out into words.
But just after he spouted it out, Sato looked to the ground in confusion as he began wondering how he knew something like that in the first place.
"I see, so the Demon lord takes my eye, interesting." Vlad voiced out.
Sato was surprised, "You believe me?" He asked.
And Vald replied, "This isn't the first time Jira has threatened me for it, it's obvious something along that would happen…. Hahahahah, as I said, what people won't do for power".
With a sigh of relief, Sato thanked as he looked at Vlad, "I'm glad you understand, so does that mean you'd give me the eye, I won't be using it, rather keeping it in hiding".
The wind blew as silence took over.
"Even if I do wish to trust you with my demonic eye, it is already beyond my power anymore." Vlad uttered with a weak smile.
"What?" Sato immediately noticed the small glow of red light shining over Vlad's closed eye when he faced him.
"Shit!" Sato yelled, running straight toward Vlad.
As he ran, he noticed his speed wasn't as fast as he would normally move, but he didn't pay that any mind.
The only thought going through his head was how he would stop the demonic eye if it passed its full power.
Sato fell face on the ground after tripping on a small rock and his chest went scraping against the ground.
He grunted as he stood up from the ground, "It's okay, it's not like he has activated it yet, I just have to…".
Vrrrrm!
A heavy wind blew past Sato's face, forcing him to look up to see the layers covering Vlad's eye blow up.
As soon as they were gone, the main eye was shining just as bright as the moon and sending multiple shock waves throughout all of Nervek.
Sato's eyes widened in shock, as he watched the eye glow and cover the whole place in its red light.
Every individual that was present in Nervek at that very moment, felt a shock wave from every area.
Those in their homes, fishing, library, or even bathing, all felt the weird sensation pass through their body, multiple times.
Then it happened….
"Ahhhh! Mom, my head hurts!" The young male cried as he got down from the chair and walked toward his mom in the kitchen.
"Headache? Did you play outside again Victor, I told you not to go out in the sun anymore." The mother vampire said before sighing and attending to her son.
"Ow! I didn't." The boy grunted in pain, holding his head with both his hands.
"Wait there, let me get you something to fix that." The woman utteed, walking over to the cabinet to pick up a small bottle of medicine.
Upon turning to give her son, her eyes widened in shock as she dropped the bottle and screamed.
She met her son on the floor with his head scattered on the ground and his heart in the center of his mouth.
Screams from every home began to make panic all around Nervek as people began dying in different horrific manners.
The same went for the soldiers, as soon as Yuri and Divanchi arrived at the scene, they met a lot of vampires and elves scattered on the ground with their bodies inside out.
Yuri didn't waste any time, she immediately put up a barrier to cover the whole place.
"What the hell happened here." Divanchi looked around and watched the countless dead bodies on the floor, including that of her companions.
"I remember this, Divanchi, it's about to get bloody, so I hope you have enough mana, cuz, you're going to need it" Yuri said with a profound expression on her face.
