My Three Wives Are Beautiful Vampires

Chapter 1097: No hard feelings, it's just how our world works.

It hurts... My whole body hurts... I can't use my Energy... I'm being hunted.

But why? Why am I being hunted?

As I thought about this, my legs wouldn't stop. I kept running while my whole body screamed for me to stop.

How ironic. I became a Demon so as not to suffer the defects of the flesh, but that's exactly what's preventing me from running efficiently now.

Space was sealed, and even the Runes didn't work. Whoever was hunting me had a Power above Yama himself or even Gods.

Thinking about it like that... I have an idea of which Faction is hunting me. But why? What did I do? I don't remember offending anyone in that Faction.

It frustrates me. The way I'm being hunted so easily frustrates me! Am I that easy to defeat? They cut off my access to Energy, and that means I've become no better than an ordinary Being? This is annoying. I should have taken countermeasures for an occasion like this. But in my arrogance, I didn't think that there was anyone who could tamper with my Energy control.

"Don't worry. Even if you had taken countermeasures, it wouldn't have worked."

""My instincts screamed danger. I jumped forward, falling to the ground, and quickly turned my face towards the sky. In the heavens of Yama's Hell, a 5 meter tall woman with long white hair, wearing what seemed to be a Divine Artifact that had the appearance of a noble dress that was easy to move in, stood proud.

The Dragon Empress, Violet Elderblood.

Coughing up blood on the ground, I spoke. "I was sure that someone from your Faction was hunting me, but to think that was The Empress herself... To what do I owe this honor?'

An amused smile appeared on the woman's face, her eyes glowing violet, while the Crown on her head began to spin slightly.

I took a moment to admit that. The Empress was indeed beautiful, but that was my Demonic side speaking. My rational side was focused on the Crown above The Empress.

I recalled the information of the various Deities of The Dragon Nest Pantheon that I had obtained... A Goddess of Order.

The Empress could overlay her own vision of Order onto Reality, which meant... Even if I had taken countermeasures, it wouldn't have worked... In order for me to circumvent this Divinity, I'd need to have possessed a Higher form of Divinity than her or have a Divinity that directly combats 'Order' But the opposite of 'Order' is 'Chaos', and there has only ever been one Being who had this Divinity, and it is no longer alive... Not entirely... Perhaps, if I used the Highest level Divinity of Assassination, or War, I could reject the effects... Or perhaps an even greater Energy.

"I must say, I am surprised by your thoughts. Even in this situation, you are thinking about what you should have done." The Empress floated towards the ground but didn't put her foot down. She stayed floating a few inches off the ground while looking at me with those violet eyes that The Emperor had. That look of hers made me very uncomfortable. It was like she could read my Soul... And by the way she laughed at me when I thought so, I was right.

"... It's just who I am. I can't stop."

"IImm, should I fix it or leave this quirk of yours? Next time, I'll know!"

Next time? What did she mean next time? I'm not foolish enough to think that I'll get out of here alive. Whatever they want from me, they need me dead for them to achieve their goals.

"... Amazing. To deduce so many points with just a little information. You really are a 'monster, huh.'

The Empress's smile gave me genuine chills. Why is she so happy?

As I was trying to reach my skin to pull out my trump card, I heard.
