Reincarnated into a New World As a Vampire

Aldritch who had been trying to torture his opponent without success was stuck with what seemed like a dead body. He already had it bond to a tree using magic, but could not get any info no matter whatever else he did.

At that moment too, the witches had finished their ritual proceedings and were ready for the next step.

"It will be difficult to carry on to the next step with that man there, remember, we brought him here and tried to kill him, don't even think of negotiating." Veronica said, a bit worried as to what they would do.

"We don't have any other choice. We can't release the barrier as the souls will escape, and at the same time, we need him not to interfere." Helga said, seeming to have made her choice already.

After seeing just how much destruction he was capable of, there was no way any one of them wanted to approach him. Maybe on any other day they would confront him, but their mana and lives were very important as of the moment, and anything external that would take away any of those two things was to be avoided.

Repossessing the great mother's body, Helga was surprised to see herself bound to a tree as several sharp sensations assaulted her body. Since they didn't take even close to half the damage suffered by the husk, the sensation was all that she got, and only a fraction of it.

'What happened?' She thought to herself, only to see Adlritch standing before her as she raised her head.

"Oh? So you're awake? Have you been pretending since? Or, is there something I'm not understanding?" Aldritch said, flashing his sharp claws in front of Helga.

Helga hesitated for a moment, before she went along to try and reason with Aldritch to cooperate with them and not interfere, doing her best to explain the entire situation as quickly and simply as she can. She did admit that they had brought him there to kill him, but only admitted so she wouldn't lie. If Aldritch was to somehow find out she lied concerning any detail, there was a high chance he wouldn't cooperate with them.

Just as expected, Aldritch refused as he didn't believe what Helga had to say. Since his powers did not work against the husk body, there was no way for him to confirm her words.

"You don't have much of a choice in the matter. You're trapped inside this barrier, and we can't release the barrier until we finish what we are doing. If you don't cooperate, you'll only endanger your life if anything goes wrong." Helga explained seriously.

"Caring for your enemy? Aren't witches meant to be evil?" Aldritch said with a smirk on his face, and unamused one.

Helga could only grit her teeth listening to Aldritch as he was proving stubborn. Truthfully, she just didn't want him interfering with the great mother's resurrection. When she makes it into the husk body, the following processes will be very important, and if Aldritch was to interfere at such a crucial moment, it could ruin everything and in addition, give that abyssal being the leeway to take over Aeress's body and revive itself instead.

"Hmm?" Aldritch watched the husk's head fall again, becoming unresponsive and lifeless even.

'What's going on here?' Thinking more on it, Aldritch could only conclude that the body before him was only being possessed remotely to fight with him. He actually fell for such a trick. To be honest, he acknowledge that it was a great idea, since they themselves would remain safe regardless of what happened to the body, and they could even send more if the one before him became useless.

As for what they had said, Aldritch had resolved himself to wait and see if they truly were being serious. If they were and this empty body before him actually come alive and any weird thing happened, he would simply hide himself properly in the vast territory within the barrier, there was nothing to fear. Thinking about it, he could see various hiding spots where he could stay undetected.

"Hmm…"

…

'I have enough blood to last me in a full battle, it should be alright.' He thought to himself. Perhaps, a foolish thing to rely too much on his regeneration, but at the moment, he didn't really have much of a choice.

The witches requested that he stay far away from the husk and for him not to interfere with anything that would happen in some time to come. His own plan was to stay away from anything that would happen, unless he had to interfere or was provoked or had to defend himself even. Even though he refused them, his plan tallied with their request.

Finding a good spot to watch from, Aldritch first too the husk to one side of the barrier before making his way to the other side.

With his superior eyesight, he could watch the coming events from a safe place.

…

Back in the nether realm, Aeress could feel the power and connection to the real world become more tangible and could tell that her disciples were at work. She was already finding it difficult to contain the abyssal entity within her, so knowing that it wouldn't take much longer was good motivation for her to keep going, doing her best to resist its force.

In her own voice, the abyssal entity spoke to her in her mind, "this is a waste of time, you can't stop me, you know it. Once I gain a real body, there is nothing you will be able to do to hold me back, there will be nobody capable of getting in my way…" It said in a cold and almost condescending manner.

Listening to its monologues as Aeress refused to engage it in any sort of dialogue, she could only wish for the ritual to proceed even faster so she can finally rid herself of this seeming curse on her life.
