Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn As A Vampire Dragon With a System

Chapter 139 - Rescuing The People



-----

Edward gritted his teeth as he faced his death with bravery, conjuring a last flash of light and hitting the android in the head!

FLASH!

The android lost its balance and fell, Edward slowly crawled away, but it got him!

CLASH!

Its metallic claw pierced his leg as he gritted his teeth and groaned in pain!

"Aghhh…! D-Damn it all!"

He pointed his staff at the android hit its claw, but it was too hard for him to do anything…

"DESTROY… INTRUDER…"

The dead mechanical voice of the android resonated through Edward's ears as it crawled towards him!

One of its claws raised high, pointing at his face.

It quickly moved downwards, about to pierce his head and splatter it into the floor.

"I did… what I could… my lord…"

.

Edward faced death with tranquility. He knew he did what he could and decided to die in peace knowing that Chaos would free many of his elven kin.

CLASH!

"Eh?"

However, Edward wasn't dead yet?

He looked at the claw, it hit the floor right next to him.

The android began to malfunction as it fell back, all the other androids had also stopped moving.

"What's going on?"

Dark energy began to pour from them, as if they were being possessed by a strange being.

"Edward, its me, Erebus. Are you ok?" asked the little voice of Erebus through the android.

"E-Erebus?! My young lord, you've saved me… Y-You possessed the Androids?" asked Edward in disbelief.

"Indeed, it took some time, the main frame of this place was very big, and it had many defenses… It was hard… I want to meet papa and cuddle in bed…" he sighed.

"A-Ah, I see. Well, let's go back… Ugh…"

One of the android shapeshifted back to their beautiful female appearance and carried Edward on its arms.

"W-Wait, Erebus, this is embarrassing!" cried Edward.

"You did a good job resisting, my body is right there, if you have not fought like you did, I would had been overwhelmed by the android while my consciousness was inside the computer, and I could had gotten killed." Said Erebus.

"Oh… Haha, it's nothing. My lord chose me because he recognized my Spirit Magic as strong, and I did what I had to do." Said Edward.

"You're a good uncle." Said Erebus.

Erebus true body was still standing still, his consciousness had been poured into the entire facility.

The mechs and android fighting Chaos and the rest had also stopped attacking, and the entire place was now within his grasp!

Carrying Edward, Erebus greeted Chaos.

"Father, everything is ready, I've taken over the entire place. The quantity of slaves there are in here is enough to carry them in the spaceships you got, though… there are also some in here, let's use those as well." Said Erebus.

"A-Amazing…"

Even Chaos was surprised! Erebus just took over everything!

"I never thought I had such potential, but I had the itch it would work, papa." Said Erebus, the android personifying him smiled cutely.

"Good work."

Chaos patted his true body which was standing in silence. It seems that Erebus couldn't split his mind, he had to put all his effort into possessing this entire place.

"Erebus, is it possible to control your body as well as this place?" asked Abyss.

"I think it could work, but the amount of effort would be big, the A.I. hasn't been completely suppressed, it might regain its foothold if I gave in a bit… Sorry about that, mama." Said Erebus.

Unlike Chaos Erebus power was limited, he had not the power to divide his soul into clones or any of that yet, but he had a lot of mana at over 100 million, enough to do this without much difficulties as long as he put all his mind into it.

"Very well, let's get moving then." Said Chaos.

The slaves suddenly began to wonder what was going on, suddenly, everything became a chaos outside of their rooms.

They were all contained within tight rooms where they were feed two meals a day, which were just bars with nutrients and a glass of water.

They felt miserable and sold as goods only made them feel even worse.

A little blonde girl looked at the ceiling with dead eyes.

Shew as so young, barely at 5 years of age.

Yet… she was enslaved alongside her family. She hasn't seen them since then.

She missed her mama and papa, and her grandma and grandfather.

But she had cried so much that her eyes were now dry of tears.

At such a young age, she had begun to fall into such a deep despair, she had become dead inside.

However, suddenly, as if it were an act of miracle, all the doors where slaves were contained opened.

Several android greeted the people.

"All of you had been rescued now, let's escape together outside so we can lead you to a safer area." They said in unison.

"W-What?"

"Am I dreaming?"

"Is this a joke?"

"This can't be real…"

"Rescued?"

The people noticed something wrong with the cold and lifeless androids.

The girl suddenly stood up, looking at the androids with eyes that had lost their innocent light.

"Can I meet mama and papa?" she asked.

The android looked down at her, as it petted her head.

"We'll try to find them."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Am I… not dreaming?"

"No."

"Ah…"

"Mariaaaa!"

Suddenly, the voice of her mother resonated through the corridors, the little girl almost felt as if she had a heart attack.

She looked at the origin of this voice as she saw her mother, rugged, very weakened, but it was still her mother.

"Mama…"

It has been over half a year since she hadn't seen her.

"Oh, my girl!"

She jumped over her daughter as she hugged her tightly.

"Mama… Sniff… Mama!"

Erebus looked at the family reunion expressionlessly.

"Family… Bonds… Love… These three things are what make us different from just mindless monsters. I suppose… I have begun to understand a bit of it, father…" he thought, from a mere dungeon, his mind had evolved and developed deep emotions, managing to see the beauty of life.
