He didn’t even know how to respond to X’s bullshit. This wasn’t some grand novel with a chosen one blessed by fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a chosen one at least found something in the end: a family, loyal friends, a lover who adored them beyond reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Look at him. Did he look like he had any of that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one could be a parent figure, no friends who would stand by him, no lover who would walk the same bloodstained road he did. He was alone. Always had been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was miserable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he grabbed X by the collar and snarled through his teeth, \"Fuck you, X! I won’t be the one responsible for this mess, not for hundreds and thousands of children dying in agony!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not for your incompetence or the pile of corpses you want me to carry for you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice cracked, his chest heaving with anger that bordered on despair. \"You have failed as the Emblem of Enigma!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You failed this world, those children, the vampire society, even your so-called False God!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes blazed with disgust. \"Don’t you dare push your failure onto me. I’ve had enough!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>X blinked once, then chuckled softly. \"Ouch. That’s painful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pushed Seamus backward, almost making him stumble to the ground. His tone turned calm again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Careful now. Don’t fall. I won’t be there to help you up again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tilted his head, watching Seamus as if examining a broken object. \"Believe me or don’t, it doesn’t matter. Sometimes the truth is simply painful. And reality?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave a thin smile. \"Reality is crueler to those who are weak and those who stay silent when they’re being stepped on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with mock sympathy, he added, \"Oh no, don’t worry, I’m not talking about you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He let out a short laugh, cold and humorless. \"But I understand now. I finally see what Isolde felt, and why she did what she did.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>X began to circle him slowly, the sound of his footsteps echoing across the empty void. He looked like a vulture waiting for the body to stop breathing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You and your father are the same,\" he said quietly. \"Honestly, if I were Isolde, I’d have had enough too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus gritted his teeth so hard his jaw hurt. \"Shut up! I don’t want to hear another word!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And what do you mean about my father? He was never involved with Isolde, he only married her to protect me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>X stopped and exhaled, a faint sigh that carried disappointment more than pity. He was silent for a moment, as if deciding whether to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he finally looked up, his eyes were colder than before. That gaze alone told Seamus everything, his father knew Isolde far better than he ever imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did my father do?\" Seamus asked, his voice trembling. \"What kind of relationship did he have with her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not what he is,\" X said quietly. \"It’s what he did. And you’ll see it soon enough. Fate will make sure of it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He crossed his arms and looked away. \"It isn’t my place to tell you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned back with a faint smile, almost fatherly. \"For now, you just need to accept it. Accept your fate. Accept that everything you touch falls into chaos and destruction.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone darkened. \"It’s the price of the power you hold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped closer, voice soft but sharp enough to cut. \"Once you accept that, everything else becomes easier.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus closed his eyes. Deep down, he knew X was right. Because of his blood, his mother died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of him, his father wasted away, drowning himself in drink and shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of him, Viviane—the woman he loved—took her own life. Because of him, Bork nearly fell to ruin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he understood why the Crimson Nectar never lasted long. Some of them were killed, yes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But others likely killed themselves. Maybe they reached the same answer he was reaching now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe this was the only way to end his and everyone else’s misery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Seamus did not want to die. Even after everything he still wanted to be alive, and if that meant he had to become stronger, he was ready to do it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Give me the right to punish Corvane,\" he said. \"That is the least you can do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Least?\" X smiled, amusement in his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That sounds demeaning, but I do not mind giving you that right. There is one condition. Find my crest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It does not have to be you who does it. Your father can search for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>X lifted his hand and a screen flickered into life in front of Seamus. On it, his father moved in panic, shaking his son’s body, trying to take him up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Andrew thought you were already in hell. Well, Roanna has scared him to death, that’s why.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus nodded. \"I will find it. And about hell, are those children in there too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He waited for an answer. If those souls were what made this manor an endless illusion, then they were more than forgotten. They had been turned into vampires.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>X’s smile softened for a breath. \"Do not worry. The False God is cruel, but they are also fair and they respect consent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That answer loosened the knot in Seamus’s chest and he let out a small, shaky breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>X reached for his hand. Seamus reacted first. He kicked the Emblem in the groin so hard that the man folded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is for insulting me,\" Seamus said. \"Do not ever do it again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>X crumpled to the ground and hissed, \"Fuck, you are strong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus grinned in satisfaction. \"I will do worse if you keep pressing me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, I won’t! Damn, Isolde should be the one getting this treatment.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rose again and something slipped from his chest. A black feather drifted out and landed in Seamus’s palm. It felt cold and oddly heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From now on,\" X said as if reciting an old law, \"the act of punishment will fall to you. I want you to be a wise executioner.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus felt nothing magical in that moment. The feather was simply a feather that suddenly went into the back of his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then X disappeared with the faint echo of a voice ringing in Seamus’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will stay here for a while,\" X said in his mind. \"Let go! Let us punish Roanna!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus rolled his eyes at the sound of it. \"What the hell?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he opened his eyes again, his father was there. Andrew looked like a man who had seen his worst fear and survived it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tears streaked his face and the shock loosened into relief as he grabbed Seamus and hugged him hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh God. I thought you were dead. Thank God,\" Andrew said, holding him tighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad, I am fine. Let go,\" Seamus said, tone flat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could not help a small smile, but it vanished when he remembered who had sent him away, who had thrown him into Velstrath and set this chain of ruin in motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Andrew let go and stammered, \"I’m sorry, Seamus. I am sorry for what I—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground trembled under both of them. Seamus narrowed his eyes and felt a pressure in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was X, speaking in his head. ’Roanna and Isolde were fighting. You need to finish her before Isolde kills her,’ X said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Or do you want that woman to steal your thunder?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seamus looked at his father for a moment. He did not care whose hands closed the final Chapter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do not care who kills whom,\" Seamus said finally. \"I just need to say something to Roanna.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now I know the true nature of your power, Roanna. It is indeed impressive. You are my antithesis.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roanna’s face paled at those words, though she masked it quickly with a laugh full of mockery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So what? Does that change anything in this fight?\" she grinned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, my power is to devour the very fabric of thought: dreams, illusions, delusions, all of it. Everything born from the mind belongs to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am your antithesis because you can only make nightmares upon nightmares. And I will make sure you remain beneath me, just like you used to.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roanna moved swiftly. From her back, ribs burst outward and twisted into swords that flew toward Isolde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Isolde vanished in an instant. Before Roanna could even realize it, she was already trapped inside Isolde’s dream realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a flick of her hand, Roanna tried to counter by lifting her palm and absorbing the dream itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The realm shattered like broken glass, and yet nothing changed, they were still standing in her throne room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the most infuriating part of Isolde’s power. Sometimes, her enemies never even realized when the dream began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can only make nightmares? That’s absurd. Ask Seamus, I gave him plenty of romantic dreams with Viviane,\" Isolde’s voice drifted from behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roanna turned sharply and slashed her bone sword toward the sound, but Isolde was gone again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But Roanna,\" her voice whispered, echoing all around, \"the absorption of negative emotion isn’t your only gift.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is another, the skill that allows you to wield so many blood styles.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Roanna’s eyes widened slightly as the dream realm began to crumble even faster. She raised her hand and tore through the illusion again, desperate to regain control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isolde appeared before her at last, smiling faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your realm, Roanna. That is your true power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1582,"2026-06-03T11:48:03.951Z","2026-06-03T11:48:07.607Z",1,"novelbin.me","7020de8dc5be869c804032945e03f7acb2917fa3465ae32e1a51353ef6a844ee","my-stepmom-is-a-vampire-her-entire-bloodline-wan-chapter-127","my-stepmom-is-a-vampire-her-entire-bloodline-wan-chapter-125",244,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-stepmom-is-a-vampire-her-entire-bloodline-wan-cover.jpg"]
