Mahou Project!!

Ken Mercer felt something shifted deep within his physique.

Like terrible darkness calling unto him, a creature suddenly emerged deep inside his mindscape, a being clouded in absolute darkness.

A hideous being, a gargoyle-like figure with massive bat wings is seen to be trespassing. It has a pair of exaggerated upturned eyes that sported the color of blood like crimson.

The being also stood a solid 9 feet. Its eyes wandering into the void of never-ending subconsciousness.

The creature began to sniff around and the scent that it caught instantly put it in a state of euphoria as the being licked its lips with anticipation.

"Ah, so this is my host. It seems that I'm fortunate to be blessed with someone so powerful."

The creature roamed around the mindscape, peering into the memories of his host and what he found quite intrigues him.

"The Magus of Infinity... It seems that I hit the jackpot!!!"

Every Vampire is a predator, the superior race of the night that has graced Kalas ever since in a time long forgotten.

The Vampire's soul is also corrupt, the moment a mortal gets turned, his or her fabric of every being is doomed to belong to the Prince of Darkness.

As such, in every turning, a being simply known as the Beast is born in every vampire, Agents of Darkness who are responsible for the corruption of the mortal's soul.

They are the Vampire's inner predators, an innate demonic creature who interferes with its host's sense of morality, defiling one's conscience especially in times of extreme distress and hunger as the vampire succ.u.mbs to his animalistic nature.

There are ways to pacify the beast within, clinging to the shred that they once called Humanity.

Feeding is the best way, suppressing the Vampire's blood l.u.s.t.

Abstinence of killing innocent beings as the Beast thrives on the death of one.

And lastly, a will of iron fortitude, to never give in to the temptation of its carnal d.e.s.i.r.es.

As the Beast was lost in its thoughts, fantasizing about ways to utilize such magic, the power of Infinity right in its very grasp, then something-

No, someone appeared behind the Beast.

It was a child.

A blonde girl whose hair color is as pure as gold was seen. She seemed physically looks to be 9 years old, dressed in a sleeveless white one-piece dress and bare-footed.

And the look on her face suggests boredom.

"Who are you child?" The Beast eyed the child, his tone demonic in every pitch.

The child yawned in response, her bored look glancing at the Beast's monstrous features and she looks unimpressed "Your filth awoke me from my peaceful slumber and here I find a Beast of that pathetic Prince of Darkness wanna be lurking inside my precious host's body. It seems that he has contracted Vampirism for some reason."

"Oh and another thing."

Pure, una.d.u.l.terated pain coursed right into the Beast as the Child unleashed some sort of magic.

The Beast felt like being purged, like its body is cleansed against its every will, screaming in agonizing torment as flames of white color consuming its very being.

"You are millenniums away from calling me a child. You are not worth even a single millisecond of my precious time. But I suppose the power that you can provide to my host has its uses."

The child smirked, as she continued to watch the Beast suffering right under her finger tips.

The Darkness fades as Ken Mercer felt the cloudiness inside his mind finally dissipates.

Moments ago, he felt like being not in control, like a predator whose only d.e.s.i.r.e is to kill anything that moves in his sight.

But now, his mind is clear of such debased urges, and his body...

Ken Mercer felt stronger than ever!!

In fact, he felt that he could take down the Demon Vampire in front of him with absolute confidence and even win.

"You!!" Vlad pointed his fingers at Ken accusingly, the former's dominant hand gripping his bloody scythe firmly.

"I'm not sure, but I suppose I have to thank you for this I guess." Ken smirk, his now red eyes shining as he bared his fangs for the vampire to see.

Discarding his Ice blade from the Magic of Frost Release, Ken eyed his scythe made out of Blood Magic and willed it to turn into a crimson sword.

"Neat, it seems Blood magic has its perks. Let us continue shall we?" Ken spoke, his voice sounding playful.

Vlad nodded, brandishing his scythe as the battle resumed.

Things are not exactly going well between Minato and Ana as they are after all facing the mastermind of the scene.

"Heh not bad. You manage to defeat my 5 Strongest Maids but I'm still here so not exactly the victory you had in mind?" Miabi chuckled mockingly as she eyed at the two panting and tired magi with slight injuries and cuts all over their bodies.

"Tsk, I did not expect that you would imbue these women specifically with an even more tainted version of demonic possession," Minato said with a cold tone, holding a golden sword being stab into the ground as he was exhausted from how ridiculously strong the maids who are now unconscious on the ground.

"You, demoness bitch..." Ana growled in anger, her eyes with the form the dragon, like a reptilian as she could not believe that someone could make a dragon-like herself catching breath.

"Oh, don't be so mad it's not like I'm going to kill you or anything. I assure you that my intentions can only be achieved by my darling Ken Mercer's magic." The Warlock answered as she prepared her dark spell, BLACK DEATH.

"Intentions?" Minato questioned her.

"You have to defeat me first if you want to find out~," Miabi said with a sick happy tone as the area around them was suddenly engulfed with a black miasma of suffocating darkness that weakened both Minato and Ana.

"W-what's this?!" Ana demanded answers from the Warlock as dark demonic hands suddenly grab the redhead and swordsman from below.

"Oh, I'm just buying time my dear. After all, Ken Mercer is who I'm aiming for."

Minato summoned up his magic to conjure a violet sword in the air and sliced the demonic hands in response.

"That sword..." Miabi gritted her teeth, obviously familiar at the legendary blade now being wielded by Minato.

"Sorry Warlock but I guess playtime is over."

"Woah, these ladies sure are spunky!!" Peter grinned playfully as he and Glacia were fending themselves against a horde of a demon-possessed maid costume-wearing girls each having their weaponry and magic conjured.

"Not helping Peter." Glacia frowned at their current state.

Sometime after the battle began, Glacia and Peter did an impressive job of fighting against 20 maids and even going so far that they manage to beat 16 of them but alas everything has limits including their stamina and mana.

"This sure is fun!!" The Shadow Assassin said as if he is having the time of his life as he sidesteps a spear thrust from a maid.

Another maid decided to strike Peter from behind with a readied lightning punch but luckily, Glacia was able to intercept the attack by conjuring an ice ball and blasted the maid who received the spell head-on and was knocked down cold.

"I owe you one Icy!!" Peter gave a thankful grin at the blonde girl.

"I'll take note of that. Anyways 17 down and 3 to go and I grow tired of this nonsense so I'll end this now." Glacia said as she cast a powerful Ice spell that will end it all.

"FROST RELEASE: CHILLING NOVA."

A case of ice was summoned at the feet of the maids rendering them unable to move as the ice seem to spread all over their body until they were completely frozen.

"That's one kick-ass spell you got there Icy. Why didn't you use it earlier?" Peter asked her with excitement in his voice.

"Chilling Nova is a spell in which I can only use at 3 persons at most. It also requires utmost concentration so if I use it when they are 20 of them, then it'll be useless." Glacia explained the basics behind her attack.

Peter nodded in understanding and turned at the 20 now unconscious forms of the female students, and their aura of malice seemed to dissipate in their defeat.

Then the Shadow Assassin's eyes widen with shock as he saw Glacia's eyes, her sclera turned completely black with violet pupils. Her hair has assumed a lighter shade of blonde, her skin turning turning unhealthily pale and an Undead's silhouette was a witness for all to see.
