Vampire: World of Blood-Chapter 143: Her Demands

Michelle’s voice echoed through the void, her towering form radiating cold, calculated authority. The storm of emotions she had earlier restrained simmered beneath her regal posture, but her words were measured, deliberate.

"I can forgive many things, Brunhilde."

She began, her gaze narrowing as she studied the smaller woman before her.

"I’ve overlooked countless transgressions, countless ambitions. The only reason you remain an exception is out of respect for Loki’s bloodline... for Hector’s father."

Her voice softened, if only a little; given she has great respect for all her Overlords, valiant warriors worthy of such praise, as she mentioned Hector. She wasn’t just angry; there were history and family matters, no matter how twisted it was.

From there she continued.

"You’ve done so many fucked up things, Brunhilde, putting your own grandfather’s life in danger, and for what purpose? It’s a shame I can’t perceive what happened in the Primix Dimension, for the simple fact that Eos’ sins are reflected on me because I was created mostly in his image."

"Sigh!! I didn’t want Merciless to get mixed up with Spawns; even I find them difficult to deal with; but here you are sending him into a fucking plane of existence I can’t access; if Merciless dies here, Brunhilde, I will make it my mission to kill you at any cost; I just want you to know that you heartless bitch."

Michelle said as she began to explain her anger to Brunhilde in great detail, her form floating around her in this space of non-existence. Naturally, Brunhilde just stood there, both arms folded, the smile on her face had yet to move.

Or better yet, it had no reason to move.

But nevertheless, she just stayed there and listened to Michelle’s words.

"For this reason, I haven’t given my weakest incarnation/avatar any memories or information concerning Spawns. Hell, the only avatar that knows anything about them due to my will alone is my avatar in the 12th realm. But, beyond that, any incarnation with it discovered it spontaneously."

"But the last person I wanted to know this information was my first avatar, who is currently in this lower plane of existence. I didn’t make this one climb because I had no intention of doing so; instead, it was designed to instantaneously transcend to the fourth plane under specific conditions, if they ever occur."

"But now I can’t even utilize this avatar for my exquisite scheme since you ruined everything and brought two fucking spawns into my house to which I have no relation, to begin with. I watched from above; they didn’t interfere with my objectives, so I left Murphy and Beatrice alone, but you went out of your way to make them an issue for me now."

"For as long as I’ve known myself, my quest to slay Eos’ true form would have begun in Realm 1 before he initiated the rupture from here, waking up the primarchs as a result, irrevocably altering the mortal plane as we know it."

"But you wreck everything; my incarnation of this realm is ruined because of you; I have no use for a failed product, and now I am back at the drawing board as a result of your antics; well, that was until Merciless came to be."

"At the very least this failed product completes half of the mission, to find me an heir and most say I am pleased with its choice. Especially since that mother fucker cursed me to only sire once."

Announced Michelle; her voice was relatively pissed for a variety of reasons. But the moment that sired bit came, you could hear the hurt in her voice, and one that hurt her deeply.

"But that aside, I can sense when Loki’s bloodline is in trouble, normally I wouldn’t intervene but you went too far this time around, and in many regards especially messing with my heir origin point."

Michell said to Brunhilde who just chuckled as she responded as such.

"My actions were never intended to hurt Merciless, and I have no desire to hurt him, mother-in-law; why would I hurt someone I love more than myself? And besides he is safer in my hands than in yours. Trust me when I say this; after all, if you had known what I knew from the very beginning, you would have come crawling on all fours pleading for me to save him."

This was Brunhilde, response, it was honest and straightforward, despite how insulting it may sound.

"You bitch."

Said Michelle, to which Brunhilde replied back.

"Better a bitch, than a delusional hag."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Heheheh... See, you can’t even retort back to me."

Brunhilde said sarcastically, a slight chuckle leaving her mouth in the process.

As she continued, further saying what she wanted to say.

"Deep down, you know I’m right. You know Merciless fate is safer with me than in your hands. Unlike you, I won’t spoil him by making him visible to higher powers too soon, even if you and the other Progenitors are focused on protecting your different heir’s origin point."

"I don’t want those higher forces, the ones I’ve foreseen, taking notice of him—at least, not yet. But under your care, they will, and when that happens, your precious heir will die prematurely."

When Michelle heard this her eyes opened up, but she didn’t respond, instead she listened.

"If Merciless truly falls, it will awaken that thing. And neither you nor I, nor the Origin, Zenith, Grand Hex, the Observers, nor even the Originators themselves can stop it; even if we put our differences aside and work together. You can’t reason with a will driven solely by purpose without a mind."

"As such my task is to ensure the mind reaches the body, where a new Origin will emerge. Until that time comes, I will serve and cultivate the Morningstar, guiding him to his highest summit where he can strive on his own."

"For this, and this reason alone, every action, every cruel scenario I put other true is for refining my love. He is free from the influence of a higher power when he is with me, the only time I make him revert him back to my influence, and take control of his fate, is when it is needed. Apart from that I allow him to choose and walk his own path; Merciless doesn’t need to concern himself with higher powers right now, after all, he is still a baby, a mere infant in the grand scheme of things."

"That is why I will only say this once, dearest mother-in-law; if you truly love Merciless as I do; leave him be, and let him choose his own destiny, I am not going to tamper with his fate unless I see a dead end were he truly dies, causing for that thing awaken without the need for it to be awaken."

Brunhilde’s words were firm, and they held truth within them; as such she stood her ground.

On the other hand, Michelle began to reply.

"There you go again with your kryptid bullshit."

"As cryptic as it may be it is the truth nonetheless."

Brunhilde retorted.

Refusing to share any more information on the matter of her intentions.

Naturally, this just angers Michelle more causing her to say as such.

"Sighh!! Though I despise your meddling, your presence is something... I cannot erase."

Brunhilde remained silent, her lips curling into a knowing smile as if she already knew every word that would spill from Michelle’s lips. She was both listening and not, present and yet detached.

Michelle sighed, a rare display of exasperation.

"Your condition makes it almost impossible for me to do anything about you, as much as I may want to. The magical nature you inherited from your mother, that which you’ve expressed so uniquely, has granted you... privileges that few mortals could ever hope to achieve."

Her eyes darkened as she continued, her voice dropping to a low, almost grudging tone.

"Being everywhere and nowhere at the same time... omnipresent and omniscient in ways that even I, who has seen the infinite buds of different space-time, cannot fully grasp what you yourself have seen. You were born a mortal, but also something more. The moment you reawakened your mother’s dormant magic, you became an ascender. Simultaneously mortal and divine as human may call it."

Brunhilde’s eyes gleamed with satisfaction, but Michelle wasn’t finished.

"But there’s more to you, isn’t there?"

Michelle’s words cut through the space between them like a sharpened blade.

"Even with all I know, all I’ve seen across realms and dimensions, every time I look at you, there’s something far more terrifying about you than even you let on. Something... deeper. A secret I can’t unravel."

The air in the void thickened, charged with the weight of Michelle’s words. The queen of the higher realms stood there, her massive form dwarfing Brunhilde, yet it was clear to both that this confrontation was not a matter of sheer power. It was a battle of wills, of knowledge, and of something far more dangerous than either would admit out loud.

Brunhilde’s laughter broke the silence, a soft, melodic sound that seemed to ripple through the void like the eerie notes of a forbidden song. She tilted her head, her hazel eyes dancing with mirth.

"Oh, dear Mother-in-law!"

She cooed, her voice playful but edged with a darker undertone.

"It’s so cute that you think you can figure me out. But even if you could, would it change anything? You can’t read me. No one can. That’s just the way I am; hell not even the origin can read me."

Michelle’s eyes hardened, her frustration bubbling to the surface.

"I sense it inside of you, no it is you, though. That secret. The thing you’re hiding from everyone, even Merciless. What are you, truly?"

Brunhilde’s smile didn’t waver, but the air around her seemed to hum with an invisible power, a force that Michelle had not fully understood until now. It was not just Brunhilde’s magical inheritance or her omnipresent nature that made her untouchable; it was something far more ancient, far more dangerous.

"Let’s just say!"

Brunhilde whispered, stepping closer to Michelle despite the size difference!!

"There are some things not even you, in all your wisdom, should dare to uncover."

Michelle’s breath caught for a moment, not out of fear, but because she knew that Brunhilde’s words carried an undeniable truth. Even with her vast knowledge and power, there were limits. And Brunhilde had become something that surpassed mortal comprehension.

A moment of silence passed between them, charged with tension and unspoken understanding.

"You will always be a threat, Brunhilde!"

Michelle finally said, her voice cold again.

"But for now, I’ll respect the boundaries of fate—only because of your lineage and the mess that Hector’s situation has caused. But don’t mistake that respect for acceptance; because im not leaving my son’s fate in your hands entirely."

"Aghhhh that hurts.... im sure you come to love me though, it’s already set in stone."

Brunhilde said, to which Michelle replied.

"I fucking detest you, I don’t trust you, and I’ll be damned if I ever do... yet you’re right; my love for my son could be his undoing. So I’ll leave his fate in your hands, and I will deal with protecting his origin point and you’d best keep an eye on him or we’ll have problems. I can’t kill you, but I can be a nuisance in your ass that you don’t want."

Michelle said, in a firm and authoritative voice.

Brunhilde just rubs her head jokingly as she laughs while saying.

"Hehehe... trust me I know how much of a hindrance you can be if proved to that extent; honestly I am not your enemy; I just want what is best for you son is all."

But on the other hand, Michelle floated closer to Brunhilde and began to speak.

"Well, Ms. All Knowing, you know damn well why I’m here as well; so let’s cut the crap and get right to it; name your demands, and in exchange, I want us to form a contract of equality going 50/50; I’m not leaving Merciless entire fate and destiny in your hands. I want some leverage over him as well, so I can defend him if he ever gets into trouble."

At these words, Brunhilde jumped up joyously as she said as such.

"Perfect, I already know what you want in the contract, and I accepted it. It doesn’t interfere with my work, except for one or two things, but since I can’t force you to do everything I want, I’ll let you keep your leverage over me, as annoying as it may be. But, frankly, I need your help. You see, mother-in-law, I need you to make a weapon for me, as well as upgrade one that I recently came across."
