Extraordinary Realm from Persuasion System

Alina suddenly turned around, only to see the black-clothed man, who she thought had been knocked to the ground and rendered speechless, still able to speak.

Covered in blood and lying on the ground barely alive, his face bore a bizarre smile.

"Do you think killing us can stop the ceremony?"

The black-clothed man spoke intermittently, his voice weak but filled with madness and defiance.

"Our blood... is the perfect sacrifice... the Demon Lord has already heard our call..."

"He will soon descend... and you lowly creatures... will all bow at his feet..."

Alina frowned, dismissing the words of the black-clothed man.

To her, it was nothing more than the dying struggle of a defeated foe.

How could the ravings of a dying man pose any challenge to her?

"The Demon Lord you’re talking about is nothing but a figment of imagination."

Alina said coldly, overflowing with disdain in her tone.

"True power lies within one’s own strength."

"And I am the best proof of that."

Alina proudly lifted her head, taking on the posture of a victor.

She felt she had fully proven her worth, sure that Zhang Beixing would see her in a new light.

This ceremony was just a perfect opportunity delivered right to her doorstep.

However, just as Alina was feeling smug, a deep and resonant voice suddenly rang out in the clearing:

"Foolish vampire, do you think killing a few followers can stop my arrival?"

Alina looked up sharply, seeing a gigantic vortex appearing in the sky, pitch black and emanating a terrifying aura.

And at the center of the vortex, a tall figure in a black robe was slowly descending, like a god of darkness.

"I am Demon God Horder, the ruler of darkness and death."

The figure spoke, his voice as shocking as a thunderclap.

"Lowly beings, kneel quickly and submit to me!"

For a moment, Alina was uncertain and suspicious, but then, the valuable words of Zhang Beixing suddenly echoed in her subconscious.

She awoke as if from a dream, a proud smile curling at her lips.

How dare a mere self-proclaimed Demon God act so arrogantly before her?

"So what if you’re a Demon God? To me, Alina, you’re no more than a paper tiger!"

Alina shouted loudly, her voice echoing through the night sky.

"Today, let me show you the true power of a vampire!"

As she finished speaking, the bone wings behind Alina suddenly spread open, sharp as blades.

Her figure flashed, directly charging toward Horder in mid-air.

The crimson blood light swirled around her, like a blazing inferno, lighting up the dark night.

Seeing this, Horder’s mouth curled up in a slight sneer of disdain.

With a gentle wave of his hand, a dark force instantly attacked Alina, like an impenetrable net intending to trap her.

"With such little power, do you dare oppose me?"

Horder’s voice was filled with arrogance and disdain, clearly not taking Alina seriously.

"Today, I will show you what true power is!"

Saying this, Horder waved his hands, and countless black lightning bolts descended from the sky, striking toward Alina.

The lightning contained terrifying magic power, as if it could destroy everything.

Alina sneered, unafraid.

She skillfully weaved through the lightning, like an agile leopard.

At the same time, her bone wings kept swinging, the crimson blood light like blades slashing toward Horder.

In the air, the two powerful forces clashed continuously, stirring up gales and lightning.

The dark and crimson interwove, as if the sky itself was dyed with blood.

Alina and Horder were locked in fierce combat in mid-air, neither willing to back down.

Meanwhile, Zhang Beixing and Richard, far away in the manor, also felt that terrifying aura.

They exchanged glances, a bit of surprise in their eyes.
