NOVEL NEXT 95 Chapter 95
Once the problem with the servants were sorted. Sangrea quickly went over to the room where she'd set up her [Shadow Domain.]
Xavier stared at it from outside with a look of admiration. Although from Sangrea's perspective, it looked like his usual carefree face.
*Tap* *Tap*
"It's hard." Said Xavier.
At the mentioning of the word 'hard' Sangrea's mind instantly recalled his hard bulge. She turned bright red at the thought.
And in that moment she was distracted-
[Lightning Manipulation Level 1: Lightning Burst]
Xavier swung a fist overflowing with electricity towards the domain's wall.
*BZZZT!* *VWOOM!*
The moment his fist connected, his eyes widened as in that very same instant- The domain's wall reacted with an overwhelming force.
Xavier was sent flying back before crashing into and through a door of the room on the opposite side.
Sangrea who was drifting away with her thoughts suddenly snapped out of it.
"What just- Eh?! How'd you get all the way there? You okay?" She asked as she looked through the door. "And why was the door torn off?"
Xavier who was laying on top of the torn off door slowly got up while padding his clothes.
"Didn't you just see me flung into the room by your domain barrier?" Xavier asked.
"Ah- Sorry... I was distracted. But the barrier should be neutral, it wouldn't attack you for no reason-"
"I punched it."
"B-But why-"
"I wanted to test its durability."
"..."
Sangrea waited for Xavier to walk over before standing before the domain together with him. Right as she extended her arm out to withdraw it.
"I wonder if using Lightning manipulation and Vibration manipulation together will break it..." Xavier muttered.
"Why do you want to break it so badly?!" Sangrea asked.
Shortly after asking the question however, she froze as she realised something.
"Wait.. Xavier, did you just say lightning manipulation and vibration manipulation? Since when were you able to use these two abilities?"
Her eyes didn't mistake her at that moment she had definitely witnessed electricity coursing through his veins.
"Since today. I got them with gluttony." Xavier responded while waiting for her to withdraw the domain.
'Gluttony can do that? No wonder Wolfram wanted Xavier on his side.'
"My husband is turning out to be a big deal, huh.." Sangrea muttered as she placed her hand on the domain's wall.
"Not as much as his wife." Xavier responded.
*Shatter*
In that moment, the domain was shattered. Its shards were sent flying straight into Sangrea's shadow.
With the shattering of the domain, Xavier's sight fell upon all of those standing in the room. At the same time, those who had been waiting quietly all turned to the door where Xavier was standing.
For a moment there was nothing but silence as they all made eye contact. And after that quiet pause, both Elaine and Viera teared up before rushing over to Xavier.
*Thud*
Both mother and daughter leapt at him with their arms stretched out and teary eyes and just like that they both fell over.
Sophie and Anastasia who were inside of the room, looked at one another before letting out a sigh.
'Well, it's good he turned out to be safe. Wouldn't want my benefactor to go out dying now.'
Sophie walked out of the room past Xavier who was on the floor, tapping him on the shoulder as she did so. "Good Job surviving. I'm going to go get a look arou-"
Sophie instantly froze with her mouth open, not bothering to finish the sentence as she looked down the hallway.
Rubble everywhere, the walls to some of the rooms were destroyed and there was blood splattered all across the walls and ceilings. It was as if she were staring at a haunted hospital from a horror movie.
'What the hell went on down here?' Sophie questioned.

"Four Marquess's?!" Anastasia and Sophie simultaneously shouted.
Seeing as how all the attention fell on the two girls after, they cleared their throats before apologising.
Xavier was surprised, it was the first time he'd seen Anastasia react in such a way.
'Were the Marquess's that big of a deal?'
"Please continue." Said the butler while tidying up the room.
Xavier resumed his explanation of what happened from a separate room as he too focused on tidying up. They were all each working on one side of the mansion at the time.
Since they were bored, Xavier decided to sort of explain or give a rundown of what happened.
"How were you able to defeat four Marquess's on your own?" Anastasia asked from a separate room.
"Because he's Xavi." Sangrea responded proudily.
"..."
"Oh- I stabbed them in their hearts."
"..."
"Brother, I don't think that's what she meant."
"Who cares about the method, what matters is results." Xavier responded.
"That's beside the point." Anastasia responded.
"True, it does seem like something impossible." Said Elaine from another room.
"Thank you." Said Anastasia.
Just like that, the seven of them continued to interact while clearing up the hallway and rooms. There were also a few servants helping out in this side of the hallway despite most being on other sides to speed things up.
These servants listened in quietly without saying a word. The more they listened, the more the fear they felt for Xavier grew.

"Finally... We can relax." Xavier sighed in relief as he lazily laid down on the mansion's roof.
He stared at the cloudy sky, breathing in the fresh air as the raindrops crashed against his face. He was already used to the rain to the point of it not even bothering.
Vampires were also cold-resistant to the point where the cold gusts of wind felt like comfortable breezes.
"Looks like I've finally done it. I've become a complete Vampire." Xavier muttered to himself while staring at the screen highlighted in front of his face.

Xavier stared at his screen with a satisfied look on his face.
'I ended up missing out on a lot of blood while cleaning up, but at least I was able to get enough to push my stats pass the 100 point. It sucks how after all these Vampires came, I was only able to level reach Level 15, but looking at it from a different perspective, it's not that bad.'
'I got to evolve and I now even have nine level up options available, which I get to play around with.'
Xavier grinned whilst staring at the level up options. Whilst doing so however, something caught his eye.
Xavier narrowed his eyes while staring att he quest tab.
"New Alert?" He questioned.
'Open the quest tab.'
The moment he did so, his eyes widened.
'This... I'd completely forgotten about this.'
[Quest: Reach Level 10 and Evolve Completed]
[Quest Rewards:]
[+1000 XP!]
[+1000 Coins!]
[+1 Ancient Relic]
[Claim Rewards.]
Xavier's eyes sparkled with greed as his finger snapped towards the claim reward button. He repeatedly poked at it in the middle of the air, his finger was moving so fast that it was blurring.
From an outsider's perspective it looked as if Xavier had gone insane from the way he was poking at the air.
[Rewards Claimed.]
The moment he read the notification, Xavier's mouth opened with anticipation.
[XP: 3210/4500]
[Coins: 2400]
First the two tabs showing his XP and Coins showed up.
And then after that, came a wheel.
A wheel different from the mysterious wheel roulette that he'd previously used.
This one was a bright red crimson wheel which was pulsating a surge of energy. The wheel was split into different sections which had different shadowy shapes displayed.
You couldn't tell what the shapes meant because they were covered by shadows but based on the general outline some of them resembled weapons.
One had a basic outline of a sword while another had the outline of a bow for example.
But the shapes were constantly changing as well as outline indicating that there were numerous different options available.
Xavier stared at the [Spin] button resting in the middle before extending his hand towards it.
'Let's hope I get something useful..' He thought to himself nervously.
*Press*
At the press of the button, the entire red wheel was highlighted. And in that moment-
[Spin Confirmed.]
[The Ancient Relic wheel has begun to spin.]
In rhythm with the notifications, the wheel began to spin around faster and faster, only increasing in speed with every passing second.
Xavier could feel his heart pounding from anticipation as he waited patiently waited for the wheel's landing. He couldn't help but wonder what his fate had in store for him.
"Argh... Slow down! You're spinning fast enough." Said Xavier impatiently.
Spinning wheels were one of the very few times he'd express his impatience, it was nerve-wrecking after all.
[The Wheel is spinning.]
