Chapter 3 - Assent

In Mayui City: Time 8:16 p.m.

Building's ruins:

Cloud is thundering, and Vikram is standing on the roof of the building,

looking at the city.

The city is glowing. Its tallest building itself is glowing from top to bottom.

After seeing this sight, Vikram comes down from the building.

That building is 56 stories high {it's the tallest in the ruins on which he stood}.

He sits down, leaning his back against the wall near the dustbin. He puts his hat aside.

It has been 4 days since he has eaten.

Just thinking about killing him, goosebumps appear all over his body.

But then, due to a lack of hunger and sleep, he starts feeling sleepy.

 

Memories of his childhood begin to come to his mind.

{It is a bit blurry,

his father, whose moustache and beard are a bit straight, is fighting with a wolf in the forest, which is 13 feet long.}

While thinking this, he falls asleep, his head droops.

 

{At dawn, he wakes with tears in his eyes. He wipes them away, and enters the building. He goes up to the second floor, as he opens the gate, Mejash is sitting on a chair in the room. Vikram sits down in front of him.}

 

"Rexson, listen to me now. They might have figured it out too. I need to meet the Queen. Is there any way I can meet her?"

 

"Verus, everyone wants to kill you; the whole world is searching for you."

"Is there any way I can meet her?"

 

"No, there's no way out. Everyone is after you."

"Alright, you know who can kill Rexsons."

 

"Rexsons, no, we're all immortal. No one can kill us."

 

His hand starts releasing black steam, and he cuts off Mejash's hand with his hand.

 

He starts screaming loudly and crying.

{He was screaming so loudly that his voice was echoing far and wide.}

 

Vikram placed his smoke-filled hand on his arm, and his hand reattached itself.

 

He stopped crying and looked that his hand, once severed, had reattached itself. Then he looks toward Verus.

 

"You can die from the black blood, and after my work is done, whatever remains will all be yours."

 

"Black blood"

 

Vikram turns his entire body black, his eyes darkening as well. Smoke begins to emanate from his body, and that smoke starts drifting toward Mejash.

 

"Sir, but how will you give it to me?"

 

Mejash's body also begins to turn black, and smoke starts emanating from his body too.

 

Vikram returns to his body and says, "Like this."

Mejash feels the black blood coursing through him, and he too turns black, smoke rising from his body. He stands from the chair and looks at Vikram.

 

Vikram, with his power, forces him to sit back down.

 

Mejash starts laughing. "Sir, sir, I know how to take it, but you can't come out."

 

"Ah, I'll handle it myself."
