Chapter 393 The Dean’s Suggestion

Note:- Dont buy yet.

"Huh?" Even the Oracle felt confused, not to mention the two others that were there, "You need someone who wields the power of death now? Aren't you some bringer of life sort of spirit?" Asked the Oracle, his confusion same as the dean and Loid's.

"Well I can't say much on this but what I can tell you all is that when changes of this sort occur, they are called World Metamorphosis and they lead to various other changes, out of which; the biggest one is to us, the world spirits and in this condition; me,"

"As you can see, albeit looking the same as before, my inherent aura has changed a lot and will continue to change until I fully comprehend the changes brought to me by the metamorphosis," the world spirit explained while everyone had looks of understandings on their faces.

"Well, if the whole world is going through metamorphosis, then it means that the power levels of all the beings as a whole would increase," The dean asked, to which the world spirit only nodded with a smile.

The Oracle thought for a bit before a look of realization dawned upon his face, "So thats why, thats why the world didnt take action against them," he mumbled out, as if gone mad but quickly regained his bearings but the other three weren't fools and had quickly observed the irregularity and were looking at him, their expression clearly asking the Oracle to open up,

"AHemm, its like this," the Oracle spoke, "Before the changes occurred, we had observed that a lot of people who dabbled in the dark arts and used things like demonic transformations or summonings that called upon creatures from other worlds, the whole world kind of rejected them and either they lost their powers or their lives but it wasn't so for the Vampires,"

"How so?" The dean asked, his eyes glowing with curiosity.

"Well, you know that becoming a vampire is a racial change as a whole and it involves the highest form of dark magic and in some rituals, even forbidden magic is used. So at first, we thought that the world itself would deal with the Vampires and so, we didnt think much of an issue but nothing of that sort happened and till the time we noticed it, it was already too late," the Oracle explained, a solemn expression on his face as he looked at the world spirit and asked,

"So you really don't mind their existence, even if they are against humanity,"

Hearing this, the world spirit sighed, "My nature also changes with the metamorphosis and even I am a living being, so indeed; them living does benefit me and in all honesty, it does so more than the humans do as of now. After all, they are but the embodiment of death and have great latent potential,"

"So why did you call us here? Why are you willing to talk to us? After all, if they favor your conditions more than we do, there is no use of coming here and talking to us," the dean spoke, his expression and tone both being unwelcoming as it was now clear that the spirit favored the Vampires, so he didnt get why it was coming to them right now.

From what the dean understood, it was clear that the spirit needed their help and this sort of help was something that the Vampires either couldn't provide it or weren't willing to, hence, the dean's impression of the sprit went from good to bad in an instance.

After all, those who remember you in times of need aren't true comrades but hypocrites who favor their own benefits above anything else and the dean hated this kind the most.

Along with him, the other also didnt have good expressions either, it was the same anger and disgust on Loid's face but for the Oracle, it was different.

He felt shocked but above all that, he felt betrayed. He and his teammates had done everything for the world and to gain good impression of the spirit and right now, when they needed it the most, the spirit was only looking for its own sustenance and was basically leaving them on their own.

"Wait, don't go like that and listen to me," the world spirit called out, understanding clearly that the changes in the expressions of the other three weren't good at all and so, it tried explaining things,

"You better give a good explanation or we are going, you know where I come from and let me tell you, I know a lot of weaknesses of those vampires and can handle them very well," the dean said so, his eyes burning in anger as he felt the remorse and shock the Oracle was currently feeling.

"So its like this," the World Spirit started, "The Vampires truly are the most suitable for fulfilling my conditions but they arent the most perfect choice when it comes to maintaining a civilization,"

"And why is that?" Asked Loid, a bit skeptical of the spirit's words from now on.

"Well, their ways are barbaric. They follow a strict hierarchy of who is stronger and promote bloodshed to the extent that the weak and innocent are used as fodder. If they get my support and are able to use my power, it would only continue and as I see it, it wont be long before they start moving up and try to conquer lands and kill any specie that stands in their way,"

"So why do you not want that? Aren't you in need of death?" The dean asked, sarcasm oozing from every word that he spoke and it made the spirit's expression turn even sourer but what could it do? It needed their help and it also felt guilty inside.

After all, albeit being corrupted and insane, the humans had always kept to themselves. They hadnt caused the world such harm and instead, some even tried to help the world because they knew that the world itself was their sustenance and it was exactly this reason that the world spirit sided with the humans before the metamorphosis.

"No, if there is only death and the Vampires kill every being on planet, the balance of the whole planet would be disturbed and it would be destroyed like many other planets that get destroyed every instance and I do not want that all. Not only that, giving the Vampires my support would only cause trouble in more ways than you all could imagine,"

As the world spirt explained, the others only nodded while the dean seemed almost irritated, his countenance getting darker by the second before he suddenly raised his hand in the air, the pressure being released by his body increased as he asked, with unbridled rage in his voice,

"Why do you need us then? Go f*cking deal with it yourself," saying so, he barely controlled his rage and turned to the Oracle,

"I know my own home world is facing a crisis but its at least better than here. We can help each other bring everyone back there. Im sure its going to be a hundred times better than standing here, listening to her and wasting our time,"

Listening to the dean, Loid was almost convinced. He had seen the dean's strength and skills first hand and had a good impression of him as well. Not to mention, the things the dean had told Loid about the vampires, they were true and some from how it sounded, atleast having the freedom to live freely and do as they please was given in the dean's world whereas according to Loid, they were nothing but birds in cage in this world.

"I am with you on this but how will we go back? Not to mention the amount of people we have with us in the settlement, it wont be easy at all," Loid answered to the dean while the dean nodded at him and turned to the Oracle, only to find that the Oracle was standing in his place silently.

His hands clenched tightly with his eyes red and an expression of countless emotions on his face. The emotions weren't that of happiness but were of extreme grief, sorrow, anger and sadness. The dean had an idea of what the Oracle was going through right now and simply waited for the old man to speak. After all, the dean had went through the same when his friend betrayed him in the academy during the night when the werewolves were killed.

A few moments of silence later, the Oracle spoke up. His voice was shaky and his body trembled with every word he spoke, it seemed as if in those few minutes here; the Oracle had suddenly turned a few year older, losing a great bit of vitality and confidence.

"Give me one good reason why we should believe in you and listen to your story and get to the point, or else Im going with that kid's idea. At least his words have some truth in them unlike yours,"
