Madness: I Became The Void Itself

Arthur was on the floor feeling a bit dizzy as he felt a rib or two were broken from that sudden punch.

"Agh!" He groaned as he stood up, albeit with difficulty, before looking at John who smiling with an arrogant expression.

Blood dripping at the corner of his lips before he spat a mouthful of blood that was in his mouth on the floor before looking back with narrowed eyes and contained fury.

"So, you finally showed your true colors." He said.

"I wasn’t hiding anything to begin with, I was just...being professional, you get it?"

"Professional you say, huh." Arthur muttered to himself before suddenly, he found John’s fist already in front of him.

He widened his eyes a little as he found no time to dodge at all, it was so fast, faster than the punch of that werewolf.

WOOOSH!

BOOOOOM!!

John looked at Arthur with surprised expression before an amused smile adorned his face.

"That’s more like it. It would be shame to get you killed with just one normal punch~" He said as he looked at devastation that was caused by his simple punch.

Behind Arthur, the cracked wall was broken beyond recognition from just this simple attack.

Arthur, at the last friction of a second, moved his head slightly to the left making the fist graze his cheek and hit the wall behind him.

Then with calculated movement, Arthur took hold of John’s extended right arm and delivered a punch to the chin making him feel a bit dizzy before with a powerful kick aimed at his abdomen, John stumbled back.

Everything happened quickly that John couldn’t react, but that was only because he was totally underestimating Arthur to the bone.

He didn’t even hold him at high value from the beginning, to him, Arthur was just a simple human who didn’t know how vast was the world.

A simple pathetic human.

And Arthur noticed this and used it to his advantage.

"Heh, let’s play, little Arthur~" John smirked with mockery dropping off his voice.

Then both moved.

Though John’s movements were fast for the normal eye to see, Arthur’s own eyes managed to follow, albeit with some difficulty, but it was enough for him to dodge and counterattack.

Arthur was delivered a side kick that John blocked easily with that smirk still on his face before following with a roundhouse kick, then a side punch to the left side of his ribcage, then another punch to the chin getting dizzy again, giving Arthur a good opening making him deliver a series of very powerful punches and kicks that pushed John back till he was cornered against the wall.

"Don’t ever think I will let you go easily after showing evil intentions toward my family." Arthur’s cold voice sound in John’s ears before looking at those eyes that made him flinch again.

’That damn feeling again, are you mocking me?!’ John’s twisted arrogance and pride refused to be looked down upon.

"The play is over, from this moment on." His cold voice filled the room before he moved in a blink then in the next moment, Arthur found himself plunged into the wall instead while feeling a great pain in his back.

His backbone was broken.

"Ugh!" But despite that, he didn’t scream in pain and only groaned. After all, he went through a training that made him wish death.

He then fell down on his back delivering another dose of pain through his body and brain that made him groan but still didn’t scream. Then with a hard struggle, he flipped his body to ease the pain a little.

In truth, John could have just killed Arthur in a single punch from the beginning, but he underestimated him so much and even while exchanging blows with him earlier, he was just playing with him.

So, John didn’t take this seriously from the beginning, but feeling Arthur’s gaze that felt as if he was being looked down upon, he snapped.

But still, he didn’t punch hard to kill him, but to cripple him completely.

"From the beginning you pathetic human didn’t stand a chance against a noble vampire like me. You were dead meat to begin with, I was just playing with you. But now, the play is over." John said as he squatted down in front of Arthur.

"From today, there will be no Vane family, it’s over. And don’t worry, I won’t kill your sister, she is beautiful to be killed, though she is a human." A crazed toothy grin spread across John’s face. "But when I turn her into my vampire slave, she will get more beautiful."

The words reached Arthur’s ears as if he was hit by a hammer on the head. He forgot the pain, forgot that he was in a dire and difficult situation, he only looked at John who was in front of him with eyes filled with hatred and deep overwhelming rage.

But then, at the threshold of the destroyed guest room, he saw the figure of his sister accompanied by Sebastian who looked at him with deep worry and concern.

Ella, was trembling with fear and terror as she saw her dear brother laying on the floor looking disheveled and deeply injured.

’What is this?!’ Ella muttered inwardly as she looked at the scene. Deeply shaken, she wanted to go and run to her brother, but her legs didn’t move as if something held her in place.

There was John who reveled in the situation Arthur was in.

"Look who do we have here, my future slave has arrived~" He said with a sick smile on his face as his blood-red eyes glowed with joy.

Ella flinched when she saw him looking at her with that expression.

She felt a deep shiver running down her spine as his gaze was so crazy and unsettling.

Then in a flash, he appeared in front of her.

"Would you become my slave, E. L. L. A~?" John said with his sharp fangs looking so terrifying.

"D-Don’t come c-closer, stay away from me!" Her voice was stuttering, clearly from fear as saw those bright blood-red eyes staring back at her.

He of course knew her name as he had gathered enough information on Arthur beforehand.

"Stay...Away, you sick bastard!" Arthur growled deeply as his eyes stared intensely at John who didn’t let go of that sick grin.

"Bro—Mmph!" Before Ella could call her brother, John clamped his hand on her mouth shutting her entirely.

"Sushh, you stay quiet like the good girl you are, hmm?" As he said so, he looked at the old man tthat had come with her, then with a swift movement, he slapped him hard that he flew away like a ragdoll, his fate unknown.

"Now that’s better."

Ella trembled in fear as tears dripped from her eyes, she didn’t understand anything, just got home and saw the place totally empty before she felt the mansion shaking.

But seeing Sebastian coming looking worried and nervous, she didn’t ask anything and told him to take her to her brother. Though he was reluctant, in the end he still led her to Arthur which made her witness this devastating scene right now.

’Who is he?’ She thought with fear eating her out.

"As a parting gift, let me show you my sincerity." As John said so, he pulled Ella toward Arthur who looked intensely at them. His gaze seemed devour John entirely which made the man himself filled with glee and satisfaction.

"Take a good look."

As he said so, he pulled Ella to the front while he went behind her.

He cut open the area around her neck and collarbone to reveal her delicate skin which made Ella even more afraid that she wanted to close her eyes.

"Keep your eyes open, you don’t want to miss this moment." As John muttered his breath grazing her skin which made her flinch and feel so disgusted, he tilted her head to the side to reveal her neck.

Arthur didn’t say anything, just stared intensely with deep contained rage.

"Ahh such a fine scent, I bet she tastes delicious too, but that’s for later. For now,"

’I don’t want this!’ She screamed inwardly as John was clamping his hand on her mouth to prevent her from releasing any voice.

Then, with his sharp fangs revealed, he sank them into her neck.
