Epic Of Caterpillar

-----

"Dad, they're way too many!"

"I know, Noah's taking care of their boss, we just got to hold on!"

Alice and Arthur constantly clashed against more and more Outer Gods, they kept coming endlessly, and it has only been a couple of minutes since the cracks spread.

Crimson was unable to heal all the cracks, and as it did, new ones would always be formed by the attacking Outer Gods, whose numbers now surpassed one thousand.

Arthur and his daughter were indeed very powerful, capable of taking down Outer Gods by combining their strength easily.

However, sometimes they would be unable to fully kill them, and the Outer Gods would either fuse when wounded to form even stronger forms, or regenerate fully and come to attack them again.

To make things worse, they also had to fight while constantly defending the city below them!

"Your resistance is futile."

"You will go back to the void!"

"Your light is strong, but our numbers are endless."

The Outer Gods became more and more oppressive, Arthur was about to use Lifeblood Exceed Level 3 already, which would create an even larger strain and exhaustion over his body.

"Dammit, do I have to use Level 3 already?!"

Unlike Noah who had mastered all stages, the rest of his allies had only mastered up to certain levels, and each level had different responses from their bodies.

Arthur was his strongest ally after Iris, and could go as high as Level 5, but he could only last a minute in that state before going back to his vampire form, due to the exhaustion of energy and internal blood.

But right now, did he have a choice?

His daughter was very strong, and he knew that in the future she would surpass him, but right now, she could only go as far as Level 3.

"I'll have to do it; I have to quickly kill all these Outer Gods and go patch the cracks above…!" he thought. "Tima, Iris, Jon, and the rest must be busy dealing with the other cracks, I can't-"

RUMBLE!

However, as Arthur was about to sacrifice his own health once more for the rest of the group, suddenly, a flash of black lightning surged from within the skies, rushing down and hitting the Outer God near him.

BOOOM!

An explosion of black thunder essence erupted, consuming the Outer God, and reducing it to smithereens, the explosion spread to its surroundings, burning through the bodies of a dozen more Outer Gods, killing two of them while the rest remained heavily wounded.

"That's…?!"

Arthur and his daughter quickly noticed who had just arrived! Their eyes widened as they saw the figure of a beautiful, brown-skinned, black haired, panther beast-woman, with sharp red eyes and black fur around her arms and legs, alongside a long black cat tail.

"Mom!"

"Timasa! You're here?!"

"Sorry for the wait," Timasa was holding two black swords, copies of Excalibur made exclusively for her by Arthur and Noah. "I had to take care of the monsters on the way here!"

Timasa's black dress waved by the wind, her body covered on a black and gold colored armor, light and easy to move around, but covered with powerful enchantments and vampiric stigmas.

"Don't worry about it! Glad you're here!" said Arthur. "Please, lend us a hand!"

"Of course!" Timasa stepped forwards.

"Another vampire?!"

"Kill her…!"

"Destroy her!"

The Outer Gods wouldn't accept even more allies arriving to save Arthur and Alice, furiously fighting Timasa and surrounding her.

Yet the feline Vampiress wasn't going to let them do as they pleased, she jumped towards them, piercing their bodies one after another, tearing through their flesh with her long, feline claws!

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

Until she finally reached Arthur and Alice, the family finally united, the connection between their Souls resonating as threads of Blood Essence started being shared between all three of them.

"[Lifeblood Arts]: [Blood Soul Connection]"

Their eyes glowed with bright red light, this power… This was one of the strongest arts that the Luna Noctem family possessed!

And what made them so dangerous when they were together!

It was one of the very reasons why they were able to overwhelm the other ancient vampires, killing the previous King and Queen of the Dracul Family, slaughtering the three previous Witch Queens of the Hecatenians, and even sealing the Emperor of Death of the Nosferatus!

Back then, the three Supreme Vampire Families of Abyss never thought that there could be a new family that would one day shake the entire world and become the strongest to have ever existed!

"Now, let's begin."

Arthur spoke, and all three of them jumped into battle, imbued with Light and Thunder, their bodies moved at incredible speeds, not even the Outer Gods that existed within the void between space and time were able to properly sense their movements.

Arthur's insectoid claw, mighty and muscular arms, and powerful poison and light tore through his foes, Alice's swords of light and thunder destroyed everything, her darkness and poison started to manifest as well asphyxiating her foes, cursing them, and poisoning their wounds, and Timasa's devastating, fast paced attacks easily opened holes through their foes.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

The people of the city below them watched in disbelief and shock, and even the Blood Gods confined in the surface of Abyss could sense them, these three monsters.

"it seems Arthur's family is fighting," King Vlad Dracul squinted his eyes. "Experts at wielding thunder, light, and poison. I never imagined such a combination of elements could be so lethal."

"The Luna Noctem Family… the only family of Vampires in Abyss capable of wielding the Element of Light…" said Queen Cecilia Dracul. "I hate to admit it… But without a doubt, they stand supreme."

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Over forty Outer Gods exploded into pieces and then burned into ashes within half a minute, the combined attack of mother, father, and daughter was unparalleled!

"It's finally clear, close the cracks!" Timasa said.

Arthur nodded, rushing upwards and waving his hands, patching the cracks, and reinforcing the barrier in their vicinity.

However, the Outer Gods were still infiltrating through many more cracks, and the other members of the family were battling with all their might.
