The Bored Immortal

"Fuck…" Viktor mumbled in frustration as he couldn't find a way to climb this statue.

"I got this!" A woman's voice echoed from behind.

Viktor turned around with a surprised look, "Taya? What did I tell you before?" Viktor didn't expect her to sneak up on him again and this time, she was wearing a cloth to mask the lower half of her face. He didn't have to guess to know why since her face was too famous.

Taya was panting as she came over and said, "I know you wouldn't have let me come if I told you. So I followed you, but no need to worry. In here, everyone, including that man, couldn't be stronger than an ordinary human, right? And I am your only shot at climbing over this statue before he gets that ring," Taya said with a determined look, making Viktor sigh as he said, "Okay…But only if you are sure you can beat him to it."

Taya smiled confidently as she already began to climb the statue.

Dark Phoenix, who was busy climbing, saw how some woman who seemed to be with the vampire was climbing this statue as well, "Interesting. You think this will make a difference?"

Viktor scoffed and said, "We will see who will have the last laugh," Viktor could see how fast Taya was climbing despite having her blood drained just a few minutes ago. He didn't expect that rainbow fruit to actually bring more benefits to Taya than just extending her life span.

Taya's eyes were extremely focused as she was putting all her efforts into climbing faster since Dark Phoenix had a head start.

She knew this mysterious person was quite powerful, but since he couldn't use his powers here, she didn't have to worry about that.

He was climbing over the right leg of the statue, which was closer to where the Void Ring was. But her speed of climbing was faster than Dark Phoenix, who also noticed this and stopped climbing for a second as if he was thinking about something.

But then he resumed climbing and didn't take this human lightly anymore after seeing how fast she was climbing.

Viktor never expected in his life that there would be a moment when he would have to rely on a human and watch on with his hands tied.

If only he could use the forbidden Void Arts, then all this wouldn't have been a problem. He could remember the fragment of his memory where he used the Void Arts to fight against a vampire.

He looked at his hands and still felt as if she could use these arts but at the same time, it felt like something was missing that was preventing him from using them.

He wondered what he had to do to use the Void Force his past self once used. But taking a second look at this giant statue, he felt a familiar feeling towards it, though he couldn't understand why.

Thinking about it, his favorite weapons were two long swords that he had used during medieval times. Even in the fragments of memories of his past self, it seemed he still liked dual wielding of swords.

And now he thought that the Nameless Knight also liked using dual swords seeing the two giant stone swords sheathed on his back.

"Viktor! What happened? Did he—"

Viktor turned around upon hearing the anxious voice of a woman, "Aelita…" Viktor saw Aelita rushing in, along with Umilia following behind her. He was relieved to see that they managed to defeat Death Queen and those pseudo-vampires.

"Oh no! He is close to getting the ring!" Aelita spotted Dark Phoenix climbing and was close to reaching where the Void Ring was resting. Her eyes were quivering with rage upon seeing him disrespecting the statue of her god and even trying to steal their sacred treasure.

She didn't even waste any second as she tried to gather some Void Force to blast Dark Phoenix away from the statue.

*Bhoom!*

Aelita's eyes widened as she quickly stepped back when a ray of dark purple light blasted right in front of her.

"Not so fast, sister!" A man's voice echoed in the temple, along with the footsteps of a few people.

"Brother! Where is our father?!" Aelita didn't expect Yavet and his followers to get here since she was confident that her father and his people would be able to deal with Yavet and the others.

But other than a few injuries on Yavet's body, he seemed perfectly okay, and he still had five followers behind him.

This made her chest feel heavy as she worried that something might have happened to her father.

Yavet averted his gaze for a moment and said with a look of disappointment, "He was too stubborn to surrender despite my repeated warnings. So Death Queen had to force him to. I had no other choice."

"You are no brother of mine, you traitor! How could you do that to your own father?!" Aelita's eyes became red as she now realized why Death Queen had suddenly left. Her chin quivered as she thought about her poor father, who must have tried his best to protect them till the end.

Yavet clenched his jaw upon hearing her words but then stood in front of her as if blocking her way, "It's not my fault our father refused to accept that we are living in fear of the outside world. I won't let our people live in fear anymore, but if you refuse to join me, then you might very well join our father," Yavet said as he took out his weapon.

Viktor grabbed Umilia's hand and pulled her towards him, "I will handle them with Aelita. It is dangerous for you to fight them without your powers."

Umilia hesitated, but then she knew without her powers, she wouldn't be able to deal with Void Force users. It was best to let an immortal handle this.

Aelita was ready to take all six of them on her own with her Void Hammer. Unlike the pseudo-vampires she dealt with earlier, these six, including her brother, were Void Force users with decent expertise, especially her brother. She didn't know if she would survive this, especially since she wasn't at her peak condition after all that fighting.

"I have your back."

But she was surprised upon seeing this tall, handsome man standing beside her without a hint of nervousness on his face.
