As Nightwing delivered the kiss, Angelian gave in to her lust and willingly gave her life to him.
The Hydra and Luigi finally understood Nightwing's intention.
Nightwing had created numerous spells underneath the bloody ground and was hidden from view. It was a subtle deception that all throughout the battle, Nightwing always revealed the energy formation circles and made it very apparent that he was casting spells to be made. But this time, a small formation was set and was trying to dispel the De-Heart magic.
Because of De-Heart, it was relatively impossible for Angelian to offer her life willingly to Nightwing. Nightwing had gambled to arrange the scenario of the end of their battle to destroy the guarded heart of Angelian and free her from it. The curse itself was weakened when Menks used to sacrifice and when Angelian received help without any forms of strings attached to her. It was so potent, that even the De-Heart could not stop Angelian from experiencing the joy of receiving a free gift.
With the crack in that heart, Nightwing spoke and used Charm to open a door that has never, ever opened in Angelian.
Her suspicions and fears prohibited her from tasting the joy and warmth of tossing away all her guards and giving up her body to another who she found attractive.
The two began to enjoy the process as Angelian offered all of her blood to give.
"This is so hot." Luigi approved.
The Hydra bit Luigi and flung him far out to the distance for making such stupid comments. The process itself was very delicate and didn't want the spell to be ruined with Luigi. His life was tied to Nightwing. If Nightwing died, he also will die!
As the kiss continued, Angelian lost all consciousness, and finally, Nightwing's lips parted.
"My plan worked. I'm stronger now. I should really be a Cardinal now." Nightwing was pleased as his daring plan worked.
"Master... The girl is still alive!" The Hydra explained.
"Yes. I can't kill her now. Something unexpected happened." Nightwing gathered the blood on the ground and uncovered a layer of energy formation circle that was casting strange magic.
"Unexpected?"
"The moment De-Heart was destroyed, her true allegiance was revealed. She is a person of Fate."
"A Fate Challenger?!" The Hydra exclaimed.
WARP!
The Slime Luigi appeared again.
"I can't sense her Fate Challenger now!"
"I took it from her. When she surrendered herself, I could now take the curse away from her."
"You took it from her? But boss... I thought whatever your past self planned, it was to hide you from Fate and Destiny. Why make yourself an ally of Fate?"
"I will eventually do things that will make Destiny find me anyway. If I don't have Fate's mark as his champion, then Destiny may suspect something The best way, is to present myself as a champion of Fate, but someone not as powerful as my first. But... I don't think I can move for a bit and will be helpless. Luckily, I have a powerful Commander who can challenge Cardinals by my side now who are not bound to my past idiotic self's restriction."
"Hm... Boss... Why aren't you stronger? Drinking her blood allows you to also feast on Menk's sacrifice, correct? But you seem rather weak. I thought you'd at least be at Cardinal 2 by now!"
"The magic of taking in her curses and identity as a Fate Challenger isn't cheap. And besides, I broke several of her curses. I sacrificed one level of what should have increased in my cultivation was offered back to her."
"Woah! One Cardinal level?!"
"I destroyed De-Joker. De-Bloodline was neutralized when I hid her in my power, Mysterion. The cost is worth it. Given her enough time, she will grow stronger. And I just discovered that my strange bloodline should be beyond the Fanged or the Charmed Fallen. I feel like I have the blood of Tyrannos too!"
"How? Did drinking her blood give you dragonic strength? Isn't that normal?"
"No. I gave her my blood and she's becoming a vampiric Thane Dragon. Her De-Magic was neutralized thanks to the vampire blood."
"Wait! She's now your Blood Coven?!"
"Yes. I marked her with great power. Strange thing, though. As I was kissing her, I wanted to fool around a bit and add a little more of the Charm to heighten the happiness, but for some reason, I can't. There are these... voices inside of me that are stopping me from doing that."
"It's called your conscience, master."
"...Fair enough. But hey! Give me a break! I've been asleep for who knows how long?! Can't a guy have a little fun? And even though I did use the Charm, it only awakened the desires that she had. I didn't even have to use Charm halfway through the spell. But that's not what I mean. I saw visions of two women. Powerful women with the same power as the Charm."
"Two succubi were angry that you were kissing a girl? Master, can you give me one succubus?"
"...You're a slime."
"Yes. I'm a slimy, dirty, perverted old man. I admit it. So when can I get some of them succubus?"
"...Now I'm even more confused about what my past was..." Nightwing clutched his head in pain as he suffered a backlash and ignored Luigi.
"Anyway, what's the plan, boss?" The Hydra asked.
"Where are the survivors who had Fate Challengers?"
"They continued to play. I injected too much Brimstone in them and they are playing like crazy." The Hydra sighed.
"Well, we better get out of here. Have those two send out reports and news to the surrounding kingdoms. With the information about the Eldrich and the many conflicts, it is enough to make this region fall into war. And when there is war, there is blood. And we will be at the center of this region's calamity. I will make a dark kingdom and let's hope that the eldrich will take notice."
"You are planning to take on the Eldrich?"
"The dark dependent are the most nutritious meals for me. Of course, we will be aiming for the blood Eldriches."
At Nightwing's command, the Slime began to harness his ability and devour the entire into himself.
The secret of the castle exterior was that it was the slime monster itself!
The entire dark castle began to disappear as bright magic warped out.
And just like that, the castle was gone.
The disappearance of the castle and the discovery of a battle that raged in the underground area were later discovered as the scouts saw the dead.
It was reported, that the entire squadron led by Commander Tyrs was annihilated save for the Commander himself! His family had reported and spared no effort to find him as his life talisman was still intact.
But then, news began to spread around the kingdom. Commander Tyrs made numerous public appearances and revealed numerous news that created chaos around the region.
The spies, the treacheries of some families, and even the elaborate plot to kill them all were made. At the very center of this, was proof of Menks being a Necromancer servant of the Eldrich who has infiltrated the kingdoms!
Various men of the Highlands began to investigate.
Champion Supreme Pyrekaiser Fafnir would head the investigation himself and the Highlands demanded that the Uninvolved Land will open themselves to the investigation.
Political discourse was made as the Uninvolved Lands unanimously voted against this.
Two weeks passed since the disappearance of the castle.
In a random mansion found near the crossroads to many of the kingdoms in the Uninvolved Regions of the Midlands, a woman woke up.
Angelian found herself dressed in very beautiful, comfortable clothes that made her surpass the attires that the princess of the Highlands wore.
"I'm alive...?" Angelian was stunned.
