The Promise

The gods declared their decree and judged Dracula to be punished after he used the forbidden spell that was created by an entity even they feared for some reason.

"Is that so? Don't you know what it means if you decide to stop me now?

I'm not going to kill all of them. I have enough divinity to become a God now.

So will you still decide to interfere?" asked Dracula with a smirk on his face.

"To use the forbidden spell created by God of Origin so perfectly… you found his inheritance, didn't you?" asked the God of Sentience to the vampire sovereign.

"Mentioning your father's name without any respect… you really have no manners.

Before you all joined hands and eradicated him from existence… he left his last thread of will in the world of the living.

I found it centuries ago. Just that I wasn't strong enough to act upon it. Massacring humans was something I was already going to do to save our world. But it perfectly fit into my plans later.

And now… I shall become a new God myself." declared Dracula as he revealed this fact to all the remaining divine creatures.

"The first True God who created the world of the living, God's Domain and then split his parts to give birth to the seven Gods of Creation to run the world was betrayed by his own children?" spoke one of the deities.

Dracula just revealed one of the biggest mysteries of the whole world and how the almighty entity that created their world ceased to exist.

"You liar! How dare you slander us with these lies with no proof!" exclaimed the Goddess of Nature.

"Is that so? Then how come I have the Spell of Nirvana that can steal and redistribute divinity?

You really aren't good at lying." joked Dracula and ordered his puppets to stop.

"Don't disturb me. I will complete my Transcendence to Godhood on my own." spoke Dracula and put the three mighty warriors of his on guard as he descended in the center between them.

The stolen divinity from the spell of nirvana then started descending on his body and with each passing moment… his aura and strength multiplied by thousands of times as this was the birth of another God.

[We have to stop it!] exclaimed God of Life.

And finally… all the seven Gods of Creation channeled all their transcendence force that was hundreds of times more pure and condensed than the divine aura.

A massive 10 kilometers long spear that contained their combined force came to be and hovered in the endless sky of the divine realm.

"Spear of Destruction... That's the spear of destruction!" exclaimed one of the oldest deities who knew what this ginormous spear was actually called.

"No!! Don't do it! My lordships… we will all die!" screamed thousands of beings let it be deities, demi-gods, or anyone with a shred of divinity in their bodies.

"Sometimes, there are necessary sacrifices that cannot be avoided." responded all the gods in unison.

At this moment… even Dracula, who was in the midst of becoming a God himself had a serious expression.

He did not expect the gods of creation to go this far…

"So you lot wouldn't even mind killing all the divine beings who trusted, worshiped you, and now gave their lives for you… just to kill me?" he said in a somber voice.

"And you say I'm the bad guy." he spoke with a discontent tone.

But before he could carry on…

BBBBOOOOMMMM!!!

The Spear of Destruction was thrown at the battlefield and a literal heaven-shaking explosion blinded everything and the entire divine realm was covered in a massive explosion that pulverized basically everything that existed in this plane of existence.

There were no traces of life or even divinity left as everything here ceased to exist.

Just to stop Dracula from becoming a God like them… all of them decided to obliterate the divine realm and kill everyone and everything including thousands of divine beings of deities who followed and worshiped them loyally for millions of years.

But right when they thought that the deed was done…

"Ha ha ha!! Ha ha ha ha!!"

A grim and sinister voice resounded in whatever that was left of the divine realm.

"How ruthless… you killed all of your loyal subjects just to stop me but still failed." Dracula's tyrannical voice reached the gods of creation who seemed to have used most of their energy to destroy the divine realm.

"I'm already beyond a level where you can completely kill me." his ghastly voice gave them a sense of urgency again while an Astral form made of pure divinity appeared in front of them.

"You may have destroyed my body… but I can just get reborn again and complete my Transcendence.

Now, even all the seven Gods of Creation cannot stop my reincarnation." his tyrannical voice sent shivers to the gods.

"You're right. We can't completely kill you or deny your reincarnation at this point." replied God of Wisdom and continued in a mocking tone…

"But it does not have to be this world." he said as he smirked at Dracula.

"Cowards!" exclaimed Dracula as he furiously tried to attack the gods.

The gods even surpassed him in ruthlessness and shamelessness.

Soon… all of them gathered their remaining transcendent aura and created a crack in the space between them.

Dozens and then thousands of runes and divine seals appeared on Dracula's Astral form.

All of the gods then chained him with their respective powers and his body was pulled towards this crack in dimension.

"You all should pray every day that I don't find my way back.

No matter which world it is… I will reach the pinnacle there. And when I reach Godhood… know that I will come for all of you!" he gave a final warning to the gods.

"That… is my, Dracula Von Tepez's promise!!" shouted Dracula with a vengeful voice as he swore to destroy the gods when he managed to return to his world.

The following moment… his entrapped soul was thrown into this multiversal boundary between different dimensions.

And finally… the biggest threat the gods ever faced since killing the first true god and taking over the world was finally gone.

"Phew! That was close.

If we didn't kill him now without caring for the well-being of the divine realm… he really would've become a God.

I think sending him to a different dimension was the right choice.

No matter which world he goes to… he's their problem now." said God of Sentience as he sighed in relief.

"Do you think that was the only problem?

Given the massacre he caused in the world of the living and now the divine realm…

He would've become the strongest god of us all. If we didn't throw him in a different dimension, he would've become the…" spoke God of Wisdom and finished his words with a terrified expression on his face…

"God of Slaughter."
