GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

1066 Doing Things The Hard Way.

Ragnarok had pissed off the Vampires and their demon god. He has killed two Primogenitors and he will surely kill more if he is not taken care of. Then there is the recent atrocity of releasing the Ghouls. It is certain that Ragnarok can't be left to wander about freely. So the demon god decreed that whoever he approached next would be sacrificed to eliminate him.

Even so, the first Primogenitor that he approached ran as soon as it got wind of him. That Primogenitor didn't want to die either by his hand or to the demon god. He didn't disobey the demon god since he never met with Ragnarok.

As for the second Primogenitor, she couldn't get away from him so she was locked in battle with him. He wanted to do the same thing he did to kill Marlinto. He would waste their time and wait for the sun to rise. 

That Primogenitor was sure to die anyway so she did what the demon god asked for. The demon god descended in all his might and glory into his domain. He ran for it immediately. He didn't even bother to fight to test the strength of the demon god. He couldn't allow the demon god to touch him at all. 

That's the most important thing. He mustn't let the demon god touch him in any way or he will be shackled again. He has learned his lesson the hard way. The first time was a mistake but he won't let the mistake occur for a second time. 

He could also tell that the demon god's avatar was at the Supreme law level for an Origin god. There's no way he could match that. So he withdrew the domain and ran for it. It was a close call too. The demon god was ready for him so he shouldn't have escaped at all. If not for the ghouls whom he now owes his life to, he would have died.

Every Ghoul in the plane turned their eyes toward the location that the demon god used to enter the plane. All of them detected the demon god and rushed towards it immediately. 

They discarded every prey that they were hunting and went straight for the source of the blood calamity in the plane. As for the Ghouls around the demon god, they warped directly to the red moon. Then they began to fight it. This intervention allowed him to escape. 

"I will get you Ragnarok. Nothing will save you." It had roared in anger.

The demon god didn't bother to fight the ghouls. It roared unwillingly and detached from the vessel. The red moon that the second primogenitor had become deflated immediately so it became easier for the ghouls to tear it apart. They destroyed the vessel and consumed the heart of Carnage. 

The lucky ghoul that ate the heart of Carnage became a super ghoul. This super Ghoul is completely white instead of black. It looked like an albino ghoul. Its eyes were not red anymore. They had become completely black like twin pools leading to the abyss.

Ragnarok witnessed the whole thing even while running away. He didn't let the promise of vengeance from the demon god bother him too much. He chose to dwell on what the presence of the ghouls meant and how to use them better to his advantage.

"You know that I almost died the previous time but I didn't because of the ghouls. In hindsight, It just makes sense that the demon god itself will be the main target of the Ghouls. I should have thought about it really." Ragnarok admitted to his unwilling audience.

"Hmm." Danah provided non-committally.

Now that she has no choice but death, nothing can move her. Her motivation has died and her eyes are blank. She is only waiting for death. 

Ragnarok wasn't discouraged by her lack of attention. He continued excitedly, "I learned that I should let the ghouls lead the attacks on you Primogenitors and follow their leads. Look how it turned out in this situation. All I had to do was to lead this ghoul here. It immediately latched on to you and didn't let go at all."

He got Danah's full attention immediately. Her eyes glowed brightly in anger. The color of blood became obvious in those eyes. She truly wanted blood now and she trained her very angry eyes on him. 

"You let the Ghoul enter my territory? You brought it to me?" She asked with eyes fully blazing now.

"Technically yes, but actually, the answer is no. I didn't so much as lead the Ghoul here as it was the one that chased after me. I was just passing by when I came across your territory. Then the Ghoul ignored me. Can you believe that? It is so rude."

He continued talking without care. Her angry looks didn't faze him. After all, he did promise her a spirited conversation right until he kills her. What kind of diabolical host would he be if he doesn't actually talk her down until death seems more palatable?

Danah on the other hand doesn't appreciate the fact that he orchestrated her death. She thought the ghoul attached to her was her bad luck. Now she knows it was his plan all along. The demon god doesn't want to descend only to be eaten because of the ghoul. The demon god doesn't want to create another white ghoul. The previous one is already proving itself to be a real problem.

She roared in anger. "I will kill you."

She is going to die but she is going to die on her own terms. She definitely won't listen to him anymore. So she roared and began to transform.

Ragnarok's eye twinkled in mirth. He advised with the best of intentions, "We can do this the hard way or we can do it the easy way. I recommend the easy way. Resistance is futile. Just accept your death. I promise to make it quick."
