Omega Summoner

1500 The Snake’s Descendant I



It is not farfetched to say that the people of the western continent are people that have vastly different life circumstances. Some could be born with great power and ascend the throne. Some are picked up by temples as they see great promise from them in serving the god that they praise. Some are just unlucky and are captured by bandits to be sold as slaves.

The descendants of Apophis are such people as they could only be one family line per generation. All members of the descendants could not have more than one child because of the restrictions that the Distorted God Apophis has inflicted on them. If the progeny has more than one child, then the overall power transfer would be weaker.

Just by having one child, the power that is consolidated by the previous generation would be transferred onto the next without problem. It also ensures that the child will be nurtured to the fullest extent. The Distorted God Apophis sacrificed some of its divinity as well to have some sway over plausibility.

The Distorted God Apophis sacrificed a tenth of its divine power to make sure that the progeny would always grow to adulthood and have one child. This way of controlling plausibility made sure that the line would carry on and create a powerful vessel that is strong enough to hold the might of the Distorted God Apophis.

The vessel of the Distorted God Apophis would always have three skills available to them as soon as they are born. The first ability is the innate power to control the darkness element as the reverse of the light element that the Sun God Ra wields. This makes sure that the vessel will always have at least minimum qualification to become one with the Distorted God Apophis.

The second ability would be to be immune to all poisons as the Distorted God Apophis could be said as miasma in physical body. The vessel will be immune to any kind of poison that can be created by any mortal and up to demigod level poisons. Divine poisons are a different matter as that involves the realm of gods.

The third ability and its most infamous would be the ability to swallow the light element as long as the attack is one level below them. All the descendants of Apophis will have the ability to swallow light just like their creator, but it is restricted to spells and skills that are below them in rank. This skill might be not as powerful as the other two, but one must remember that the progeny has been propagating for quite some time.

The descendants of Apophis could be said to have used their years wisely as all of them gathered power. They even set up an organization once, but it was destroyed by an incarnation of the Sun God Ra back then. Still, the most powerful vessel has been finally born on this era as the descendant has gathered enough power to take in the whole being of the Distorted God Apophis.

It would have been perfect for the Distorted God Apophis if the vessel was still in the western continent though. The western continent is very unpredictable and that means that raiders took over the village that the vessel lived on when she was still young. Her parents killed as the previous generation will lose most of their power to make sure that they pass that onto their next of kin.

The perfect vessel of Apophis was taken as a child and sold as a slave in the western region of the central continent. The vessel might be powerful but all that power is a waste if there is no proper way to use it. Add to the fact that she is wearing a slave collar that restricts the power that she can muster. 

She was sold to a noble that sent her to the mines as a young girl to work. All the slaves that are sent to these mines are not even given proper clothing. The food that they were given was just enough for them to not go hungry but not enough to fill their nutrition for a whole day of mining.

The young girl could not believe the fate that she was handed as she actually grew to the age of a teenager with working in the mine. She only kept working because of the empty promise of being released the next year as she has survived for so long in the mines. She basically grew up in the mines and saw the horrors of everything that happens there.

All the old slaves that were sent to that mine were often sent to the most toxic and dangerous areas. Those that do not will get punished by electrocuting their necks and sometimes getting whipped. The vessel of Apophis knew that she was a bit special compared to the others as she cannot be poisoned.

It is also one of the reasons why she has survived all these years working at the deepest parts of the mine. She did not care about her status, but she held onto the promise of being released the next year which is why she worked. She went deep inside the mines that day expecting that her boring cycle of life will continue but something strange happened when it was time for lunch.

She was going to the surface when she noticed that the loud mine that is supposed to be filled with sounds of clanging metal and rock is silent. She thought that all of the slaves there were already outside and eating but she learned that was not the case. She suddenly saw a decapitated head of one of the slaves rolling down the inclined road.

She did not react in panic but rather kept her cool. She immediately shut her own mouth using her hands so that she will not involuntarily scream. She knew that deaths occur in the mines, but the guards are not that brutal to cut the head of a slave since that would be problematic for the lord of the territory.

She immediately knew that something is wrong in the mines as her hand is suddenly died red when she touched the walls. She could not believe that the part of the wall that she touched is painted with the blood of the decapitated slave. She could not even smell the blood because the scent of metal hid it.

She wanted to escape but something inside of her told her that she must remain calm and hide in a corner. All her instincts went to full drive as she immediately but carefully ran to the hidden corner of the mine. She slid inside and waited for the ruckus to die down as she heard people talking as they went down the mine.

"The signal is present here as I could also feel something reminiscent of our master!" The follower of Apophis stated as she took out the scale and it glowed in a red shimmering light which means that the vessel is in the area.

"I hope that the vessel is indeed in the area as I want to immediately finish this mission so that I can get my reward! I still need to hunt down the demon that humiliated me." The Witch of Flesh and Carnage Edora stated as she sliced the body of a poisoned to death miner. She would then absorb the dead body as she grows stronger by eating other people.

"Such a tactless woman. I cannot believe that I needed to work with you when you are like this." Grandmaster Lason stated as he actually filled the cave with poison to kill all of the living beings there.

The two demigods have already been informed of the abilities of the vessel which means that only the vessel will be the one left alive inside. Each of the demigods were promised rewards to their liking and discretion. The Witch of Flesh and Carnage Edora is promised the body of a hundred thousand living people.

Grandmaster Lason is promised the blood of the vessel of Apophis as he wanted to study its special characteristic to be immune to all poisons. All the demigods that are under the dark gods are all crazy, but they will work as long as they get something that they want. That reason is the only thing keeping the two demigods from going at each other's throat.

"I already told you to detoxify them once they are dead. I cannot eat such worthless bodies if they are poisoned. Your poison does not even give any sort of spice but all bitter flavors. All the people that we encountered are all dead which means that only the vessel is left." The Witch of Flesh and Carnage Edora stated.

The vessel of Apophis overheard their conversation and made sure to even control her breathing. She heard that all of the slaves are already dead which means that she is the only one alive. One could see the fear in her face but she made sure to not make a sound.
