Chapter 80: Final Screams
🕑 Added 2022-12-19 03:35:13 +0000 UTCXenia laid on the ground in exquisite pain from her injuries sustained while executing her plan to break the God sword, “This pain. All over.” She moaned out in excruciating torture but also in utmost pleasure as she continued to mutter, “I love it.”
She propped herself up on her elbow and viewed her injuries. Most of her skin had a deathly appearance charred from energy burns with a black hue. However, all of her limbs were intact, and she could feel her body racing to recover.
She used what energy she had available to hold Gregory firm with her bloodbending, and she looked to him and smiled with her disfigured, monster-like appearance from her injuries.
Gregory was visibly distressed, “You are a monster! There is no place for you amongst humans. You may kill me, but your sins will follow you in life. The collective might of the world will turn against you, and you will be powerless to stop it!”
Her voice cracked and gargled as she responded, “A monster? You mean scary, powerful, and dangerous? Then yes, I am a monster. A terrifying one to lay eyes upon right now admittedly. But soon I will be back to looking pretty as ever.”
Gregory grit his teeth. He hated Xenia. She had the power, the beauty, and the charisma to fool a great part of the world into following her. He had given his life to stop her, and it wasn’t enough.
He shouted, “You will- arruughhhh.” His voice suddenly went dry as his vocal cords snapped shut silencing him.
She said, “Shhhh. I need to gather some ki from nature. You found my limit of bottomless ki, but you couldn’t quite finish the fight, could you? I want to look my best when people depict my final blow against Pope Gregory.”
She closed her eyes and began to meditate. The land they fought on had largely been eviscerated of life during their battle with no grass, trees, or small animals remaining. However, the perimeter of their arena had thriving forests to draw from, and she began to reach out with her ki aura and detect all life forms including trees, plants, grass, and animals.
She then bloodbent the energy from the forests and formed a small BloodStar in the sky above. After several minutes, she extracted the ki from the BloodStar. The glistening white, pure energy of nature streamed into her body from the BloodStar.
She could feel the life returning to her body as her skin changed to a perfect olive tan, her face began to glow with beauty, and her breathing and voice returned to normal anatomic functioning.
She stood from the ground and gave Gregory a refreshed smile. She threw the heavy and shattered armor from her body. The remainder of her outfit had also been shredded, and what remained of her tattered outfit covered her body just enough, albeit barely.
She began a slow, exaggerated walk towards Gregory who stood silent and still for her. She looked him directly in the eye and walked all the way up to him pushing her body up against his, wrapping her arms around his neck, and hooking her right leg around his. She hanged on to him in a sultry way she knew he hated.
She maintained eye contact smiling, “Scream for me, and I’ll make your death a quick one. Go on. Scream in fear for me.”
She released her bloodbending hold on his vocal cords, and he only growled at her, “You will never make me scream. Not even your most cruel- arrrghhhh.”
His voice was cut off once again as she smiled even wider, “One final challenge, you say? Make you scream. Challenge accepted.”
She looked down at his chest and then slowly back up to his eyes and gave him a big, wet kiss on the lips. She held the kiss and then pulled away abruptly with her body still clinging to his and said, “I just had to taste the whole family.”
She leaned in to whisper just to him, “Peter is mine to torture forever and eternity. But did you know that I am already fucking Michael? And he loves me so so much.”
She grinned at his shocked expression helpless to speak out at her words. She untangled her body from his and took a couple of steps back. She held her right arm outstretched, and BloodBane came flying immediately to her grasp.
She activated the blade, and it sprang to life horizontal to the ground. Her hair had returned to black owing to her lower power levels, and with it her blade had turned back to the normal blood-red aura as well.
She took her other hand outstretching it in front herself and opened her palm stretching all five fingers outwards. As she did, Gregory’s body also outstretched with his hands stretching horizontal to the ground and legs spreading apart. His body was completely open and defenseless before her.
She called out loudly for everyone watching to hear, “I hereby sentence Pope Gregory of the Holy Light Empire to death for daring to challenge a BloodStar in battle, for daring to attack my allies, and for daring to kill the heir to the BloodStar Empire. I sentence you a death of pain and only pain until you scream to my satisfaction.”
She took her ki sword and rapidly swung it no less than ten times at his right arm severing it completely at ten different, separate locations from his wrist to his shoulder beginning with his wrist.
The first strike severed his hand from his wrist shooting pain up his entire arm. Her second strike severed another segment of arm shooting pain once more up his arm, and she continued with each strike. Each strike layered in more pain to his neural cortex for arm pain until it was finally maxed out on pain perception.
She bloodbent his body firmly with each strike holding each severed piece of his arm in place. Although his arm was now chopped into numerous segments, the segments floated in approximation and without bleeding.
Gregory gave a silent sigh of exquisite pain but steeled himself to not yell. Xenia raised her eyebrows, and said, “Very well. I will continue.” She moved on to his other arm giving him the same treatment of severing it at multiple different locations all the way up to his shoulder.
Gregory grimaced in pain but did not yell. Xenia gave a crazed laugh of excitement, “What resolve! It will be that much more exciting when I break you!”
She then took her blade and horizontally slashed through his pelvis severing his legs from his upper body. She smiled and laughed as she held the increasing number of pieces of his body together with her bloodbending while also preventing him from bleeding from his wounds.
She smiled at her handiwork, “You have so little ki, you can’t even take the edge off my attacks. It’s like slicing through butter. And things are about to get much, much more painful. As I move up your body, we will cover different areas of your sensory cortex in your brain. The pain won’t abate, and each slice of your body will inflict you with wave and wave of crippling pain.
Next she performed multiple horizontal slashes moving up from his pelvis to his abdomen as she sliced clean through his lumbar spine, intestines, liver, spleen, muscles, and soft tissue.
The perfect slices of his body stayed in place as she cut time and time again until finally she extracted exactly what she wanted from him.
Gregory began to shout and scream in unattenuated pain at the top of his lungs. The pain had long since overwhelmed his sensory cortex, and once he began to scream, he couldn’t stop. The feeling was overwhelming, and it gave Xenia life.
She smiled and said, “Yes! Yes! Scream for me! I’m not done yet!”
She continued slicing upwards through his chest stopping at the level of his heart. She took two steps closer to him and began to playfully bite on his lower lip and suck on it while he screamed in place.
Gregory didn’t even realize she was kissing him as he was blinded with sharp pain. All other sensory inputs were secondary to his pain.
She continued to kiss and suck on his lower lip as his mouth was wide open in full yells of pain, and she slowly stabbed her blade into the front of his neck. She then pivoted the blade upwards creating a sagittal plane of his skull as she cut his head in two.
He screamed to the very end, and as her blade finished cutting his head clean into two pieces it met her lips where she kissed him. The blade burned her lips as it made contact, and she licked Gregory’s blood from her ki blade singing her tongue against the energy of the blade reveling in a little of her own pain as his echoes nearly made her orgasm from the pleasure of killing.
She then stepped back a few steps and released her hold of his body. Gregory’s now dead body fell to the ground in numerous slices, cubes, and halves. The once great Master of the Holy Light Empire now lay on the ground in a pile of sliced and diced human meat.
She deactivated her blade and pinned it to her back before turning up to face the few drones that had survived the battle.
She bowed gracefully to her digital audience. She then struck a cute pose and winked. Xenia then turned to Gregory’s dead body, and she had a hurried breath of excitement. She couldn’t wait to celebrate such a momentous occasion. She had just killed one of the world’s foremost Masters.
