After awakening the sub-power of the Seventh Pupil Ring, Kurogai immediately understood the nature of his new ability.He activated the ring, channeling its energy through his body. Instantly, the objects around him — the sofa, the table, the chairs — all lifted off the ground, floating weightlessly before crashing upward against the ceiling.
"Twisting gravity… distorting force fields?"Kurogai murmured to himself, studying the phenomenon with calm fascination.
It was gravity manipulation — the ability to alter gravitational pull at will. A power that could reverse directions, nullify weight, or magnify pressure a thousandfold.It was, in simple terms, a reality-warping skill disguised as physics.
But Kurogai saw beyond the surface.If he could twist gravity, then he could distort force fields — and if he could distort force fields, he could destroy almost anything. The human body, after all, was a field of biological and magnetic energy. If distorted, irreversible damage would follow.And if this same principle was ever applied on a planetary scale… even the Earth itself could collapse.
He smiled faintly. "If developed properly, this could become terrifying."
After a moment's thought, he decided not to push it further. With a snap of his fingers, the floating furniture dropped back to the floor with dull thuds.
"The vampire elders should be arriving soon," he said quietly. "Let's not keep me waiting."
It took some time. The elders had their own territories to travel from.When they finally arrived, they didn't rush to find Godfrey — their supposed summoner. Instead, they gathered in a secluded chamber, a circular conference room where the elders usually met to discuss major decisions.
"Stuart, you're here too?""Yes. Do you know why Godfrey summoned us so suddenly?""I've no idea. The message came without warning."
One of them frowned. "For Godfrey to use the highest summoning warrant… something serious must've happened."
The others murmured in agreement. None of them could guess why their leader had called for them with such urgency. Whatever it was, it had to be critical — Godfrey wasn't the type to act rashly.
But unfortunately for them, Godfrey would never arrive.The one waiting for them was not their leader… but a man with two-colored eyes.
"Elders," Kurogai said, stepping through the doorway with a calm smile. "Welcome. I've been expecting you."
The gathered vampires turned, their expressions darkening."Who are you?" one demanded. "Where's Godfrey?"
"It doesn't matter who I am," Kurogai replied lightly. "What matters is that I'm the one who asked Godfrey to bring you all here."
His gaze swept over the table — seven pure-blooded vampire elders, each ancient and powerful in their own right. To most, their presence would be overwhelming.To Kurogai, they were fuel.
"Explain yourself," another elder growled. "If Godfrey called us here, then he should be the one before us. Not some stranger."
Kurogai's smile sharpened. "Godfrey isn't here. He's waiting for you in hell."
The room fell silent.
Then, in a blur, one elder lunged — too fast for the human eye to follow.But before his claws could reach their mark, his body twisted grotesquely midair. A wet crack echoed through the room as his torso split in two, each half collapsing to the floor in opposite directions.
Even for a pure-blood vampire, the damage was catastrophic.
Kurogai tilted his head. "Was that really necessary? I hadn't even finished speaking."
The remaining elders recoiled, their instincts screaming that they
