Wolf of the Blood Moon: A Blood Magic

Book 4: Chapter 57: The Monster of Humanity

Scarlet

Everyone walks in silence until we reach the main entryway and Aria quickly gives me one last hug before going upstairs, likely heading to her room. Which kind of reminds me that she still lives with the asshole.

Honestly, if it werent for the fact that I know she barely interacts with him during her stay, and that Im fighting on the frontlines of the war, I would just take her in myself and let her live with me. But Im always on the frontlines. So theres no way I could take care of her.

In the end I just let out a sigh as I watch her leave with one last wave goodbye.

Then Amelia and I both walk outside. And as we walk, Amelia randomly begins talking, Im sure you have a lot of questions about Isaac.

She even calls him by his first name instead of father.

I do, I answer with a nod.

Amelia sighs and, without looking at me, says, Isaac Knight is the only human on Earth to have ever reached Class III on his own without help from the System. There have been a few others who have reached Class I and II without the help of the System, but hes the only one to ever reach Class III. And with his magic Amelia glances at me, not stopping in her walk as she lowers her voice and finishes, he would beat you in a battle of only magic, with no use of physical attacks.

I blink at that.

The hell? I mutter, unsure how to take that. At Class III? Even with my mythic and legendary skills?

Amelia nods her head before facing where were walking again and saying, Yes. Even with them. Since he doesnt have the Systems restrictions, he can do whatever he wants and knows how to do with his magic, without the limits of skills locking him down. She pauses for a second as we enter the forest around the manor, using the road passing through it. And Isaac spent far more of his time studying his own magic rather than fighting demons over the past few centuries longer than hes spent seeing his own children in fact. He acted like we were nothing like air when he and mother had us.

Oh. So his understanding of his magic surpasses his Class by a longshot. And he really doesnt care about family, does he?

Also, did she just say a few centuries?

I blink at that before asking, How old is Isaac?

Amelia glances at me with a sad smile on her face and answers, He is three hundred and sixteen years old.

Three hundred and sixteen

Does that mean he reached Class I before the System even came to Earth?! I exclaim, my eyes widening in shock.

The White Knight of Humanity just grimly nods her head.

Thats Tar mutters, sounding like he doesnt know what to say. And I dont blame him.

Although this would certainly explain why hes so rich and influential despite not being a Guardian.

Now I can understand some of his arrogance in there. He probably views everyone else as using training wheels to pass him by in level while he puts in the effort to improve and learn his magic.

Wait, his magic

Whats his magic? I ask, focusing on Amelia, only to find her frown to grow at my question.

He she mutters, pausing slightly, he has eclipse magic.

My eyes widen in surprise at that.

Eclipse magic. Its similar to Denises Inferno magic in that its basically two elements in one.

But instead of her ice and fire elements in inferno magic, eclipse magic is destruction and creation.

And for him to have magic over those two elements completely under his control without the Systems restrictions

Its just terrifying, Tar mutters, making me nod my head.

Creation magic generally involves creating things, although not all that much is known about its limits. And destruction magic is the complete opposite. The two are both some of the most powerful magics known to humans.

And giving both to a single person and letting them control it themselves he really is a monster. Even if I could crack his skull with a single punch.

Although, come to think of it, his study now makes sense. And Im pretty sure the book he was reading was over something the old world called Yin and Yang. Which had something to do with light and dark.

I think.

Didnt pay much attention to the titles on the books aside from that one though.

Honestly, Im kinda glad I didnt tell him to shove it like I wouldve normally done. I was too shocked by everything that had happened to muster up a response before Aria pulled me out of the room, letting the doors close behind us.

The thought of fighting someone with complete control over their magic it just sends a shiver down my spine and reminds me of the time Gramps decided to show off in front of me.

By taking me to the Battlefield of Blood and Ruin during my week life draining him so that he could snap his finger once and literally rip all of the blood out of a million demons without a hint of hesitation and in a single instant. Then he put it back before they could even die, somehow keeping them alive through it all.

Something that I still cant figure out to this day.

Although Isaac obviously wont be able to do something anywhere near that level at just Class III.

But if he continues to ascend he could actually rival the Demon King in a millennia.

He doesnt seem to be all that interested in fighting the demons though, Tar points out, making me nod my head.

Yeah. So I doubt hell reach it even within a few millennia, much less one.

Ive never heard of him going to the frontlines before, much less going into a Fracture.

Makes me wonder where he is getting the life force used to bring him to his current level from.
