Gospel of Blood

Elder Maxim was furious.

As a Legendary Bloodborne who lived through the same era as Duke Yorok and was even a few centuries older, Elder Maxim had always hated Yorok. Despite having less seniority, Yorok was more favored by the Gods and even blessed with a sacred artifact, being groomed as a divine reader.

"Yorok! Yorok! It's always Yorok!"

"Yurst! You arrogant bastard! You must pay for your unforgivable words and deeds!"

A tidal wave of mental power, combined with the dark red glow of the Desecration Staff, shattered Yurst's mental defenses.

Roaring in fury, Elder Maxim transformed into a phantom red giant, descending into Yurst's mental world.

The surroundings collapsed, transforming into an endless alchemy workshop.

This was Yurst's mental world.

Every Blazing Sun's mental power would evolve, forming a personal mental world.

The mental world represents the Blazing Sun's pursuit and belief and is the true source of their Spiritual Force Field.

The soul's essence of a Blazing Sun also resides deep within their mental world.

As Maxim descended, Yurst's mental world trembled violently. Magic books and alchemy tools flew at the red giant Maxim had become, instinctively repelling the intruder.

Feeling the pale power, Elder Maxim's eyes flashed with disdain.

While the owner of a mental world is omnipotent within it, this only holds if the intruder's soul isn't too powerful.

But he was a Legendary!

With a mere wave, Maxim shattered the attacking magic books and alchemy tools, absorbing their pure mental power and strengthening himself.

He then casually reached into the depths of Yurst's mental world, grasping the phantom figure representing Yurst's main consciousness and soul essence.

The phantom, identical to Yurst in appearance, struggled but couldn’t escape Maxim's grasp.

Elder Maxim held Yurst's main consciousness like a chick, his gaze condescending as if mocking a powerless ant.

His eyes were cold and his voice was icy.

"Yurst."

"I'll take your remaining life."

A terrifying wave of mental power erupted from Maxim's hand, beginning to erase Yurst's independent will and destroy all contracts and connections within his soul essence.

As Maxim acted, Yurst's mental world shook violently and started to collapse. Even Yurst's main consciousness in Maxim's hand began to blur.

Elder Maxim coldly watched as Yurst's consciousness was rapidly assimilated, confident of his victory.

But then, Yurst's consciousness, which had lost its resistance, suddenly stopped struggling. It looked up at Maxim with a mocking gaze.

Maxim frowned slightly.

His millennia of experience told him something was wrong.

Before he could react, crimson light burst from Yurst's consciousness, and a mysterious symbol appeared on his forehead.

Seeing the somewhat familiar symbol, Maxim froze momentarily.

"Thorny... Rose?"

His expression changed. Realizing something, he quickly released Yurst and stepped back, but Yurst's consciousness grabbed his mental avatar's robe.

"Why the hurry, Elder? Now that you're here, why rush to leave?"

Yurst grinned wickedly.

He raised his head, his expression ferocious, and shouted.

"Great Majesty! I present you with a fine soul as a sacrifice, now offered to you to restore your strength!"

"May your gaze fall upon your servant!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the thorny rose symbol shone with unprecedented brilliance.

Elder Maxim's face showed horror.

He felt an ancient, overwhelming will awakening within Yurst's consciousness, a powerful pressure from soul and bloodline making even this Legendary Bloodborne tremble.

"Divine will! This is divine will! You... you... you’ve allied with the Evil God behind Castell!"

Elder Maxim exclaimed in terror, stepping back.

But it was too late.

Crimson light solidified around the thorny rose. An endless red mist radiated from Yurst's soul essence, quickly engulfing the entire mental world.

Then, within the crimson, golden light burst forth, carrying supreme divine brilliance and accompanied by ethereal hymns.

The mental world, composed of bookshelves and alchemy tools, rapidly transformed and restructured into a massive temple.

Wait...

A temple?

Not Dark Night Castle?

Seeing the temple identical to the Holy Court's style, Yurst was stunned.

If not for the familiar trembling in his soul essence, he would have suspected he had summoned a God from the Holy Court!

Maxim was equally shocked, his voice trembling.

"Divine... divine light?"

He shrieked and turned to flee.

But before he could run far, a giant sword of judgment emerged from the thorny rose, striking Maxim's mental form.

A terrifying power erupted, and Maxim screamed in agony.

In Yurst's awestruck gaze, the Legendary Elder's soul cracked, then shattered into countless glowing fragments.

And then, the "divine light" with an ancient aura swallowed him...

The sword of judgment faded, and the terrifying pressure subsided.

"De... dead?"

Yurst stared blankly at the spot where Maxim had turned to ashes, filled with reverence.

As soon as he spoke, an ethereal voice, devoid of emotion, sounded behind him.

"Only an avatar, nothing significant."

"Yurst, you really know how to create trouble for me."

The divine light faded, and the crimson glow reappeared.

In an instant, the surrounding temple turned back into the familiar Dark Night Castle.
