GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1035 You're Not A World Beast.

Vampires have their own advantages and they have their own domain. He just needs to spread his type of domain. Since his domain is him and he is his domain, the activation of his domain led to another growth spurt. 

Blood spurted out from within him like a spring. But it didn't spread outwards to form a blood domain. It became his flesh which led to him getting bigger and bigger. Soon he grew to become 3,000 meters in height. That still isn't the end. He is still growing thanks to the infinite supply of blood power from the Supreme of Carnage. 

He roared with pride. "Behold the might of a Primogenitor. Look at the immensity of my existence and feel insignificant."

Ragnarok's eye twitched. "I can admit that I am a little jealous."

The black beam that he is attacking with is very dangerous. It is cutting through the tentacles like shears cutting foliage. Marlinto's tentacles are also not regenerating as they should. The black orbs are absorbing them to get stronger and their devouring power is getting stronger the more they devour. 

One would expect Marlinto to shrink but the opposite is happening. He is growing bigger and bigger because of his domain. His tentacles are becoming larger and more numerous. It reminded Ragnarok of his cheat which is the infinite supply of Origin energy. Now he has met someone who is not afraid of being exhausted. 

He is a little jealous because he too could have gotten access to an infinite supply of blood energy if he had become a normal Primogenitor. But he cut off the demon god and was also cut off from the source of blood power. 

Marlinto mocked him. "You're just a little jealous? That's good too. A little more and you will feel despair."

His height has grown to 5,000 meters now and he is still growing. He is like a mountain of writhing flesh and tentacles glowing brightly in this dark world. And unlike a normal mountain, each tentacle of his can smash a mountain to pieces. 

Ragnarok cursed. "Fucking Vampires and their absurd amount of stats."

He is most clear about the situation. He knows that Marlinto is aiming to break the domain from within by pressuring his soul. He aims to achieve this by taking advantage of his absurd amount of stats. 

Vampires have no limit to the amount of stats that they can accumulate. They just need to feed on more blood to grow without limits. The older they are, the more stats they have. Marlinto is very old. He is ancient. He is the first of his lineage with an infinite supply of blood power from the demon god. So he has a lot of stats and a lot of blood power to amplify them. 

An origin god has upwards of 1 billion stats in each of their attributes. A vampire Monarch on the other hand doesn't need to create more concepts and use them to absorb Origin essence so they have enough stats to drown an Origin god. Marlinto intends to do just that to him. 

He is currently trapped in a cage so he wants to become so big that the cage breaks from within. It is the next best option since he can't kill Ragnarok. 

He is facilitating the process by pulling on more blood power from the world god. So he is inflating rapidly. Ragnarok should be feeling the pressure of having to contain such a large and powerful existence within his domain. 

Ragnarok shouted at him. "Red Skull. Do you think you're a world beast or something?"

Marlinto replied with a roar and more violent attacks with his tentacles. 

Ragnarok snickered and said, "1 don't care what your mother told you to give you confidence. But you are not a world beast."

A world beast can't be placed under a domain. They are one of the few entities that are immune to the effects of domains. Anyone who tries to suppress them under a domain will face a backlash on their soul when the domain fails. 

Meanwhile, the domain of world beasts is very strong. It is for the same reason that domains don't work on them. They have a world within them. That's one of the reasons why Origin-level world beasts are not hunted by Origin gods. It is too dangerous to do so since they won't be able to restrict world beasts and stop them from using their divine ability. 

He is making fun of Marlinto because the Vampire Primogenitor is mimicking the existence of a world beast. Marlinto probably won't get the joke since he doesn't know that the domain he is currently fighting against is from a world beast. 

This domain is not a cage that he can break. If he knew, then he would definitely choose not to waste his time. Ragnarok isn't feeling the effect of the increase in Marlinto's size. So yes, Marlinto is surely wasting his time.

Marlinto doesn't know that he is wasting his time. Instead, he thought Ragnarok was mocking him. 

He roared at Ragnarok, "Don't ever mention my mother you foul uncouth beast."

"Why not?" Ragnarok asked. "Did she beat you? Did she smack your butt?"

"Why don't you hold still and let me show you what she did to me?"

Ragnarok did not hold still. He continued to escape while making fun of Marlinto by using the abuse he endured as a child at the hands of his mother. It is a cliche among dark elves. Probably both Marlinto and his father were smacked around by his mother. 

Marlinto didn't take kindly to reminiscing about his past. His gigantic form chased after Ragnarok to grab him. Thousands of tentacles waved around to impede Ragnarok's movement from every direction but it was all futile.

The space within the domain contracted and expanded as Ragnarok wished it. A small gap within the encirclement of the tentacles became large enough for him to pass through while the distance between him and Marlinto expanded.
