Bloodcraft Chapter 11

"Text_01","You're through, vampire!"
"Text_02","Sluggish fools!"
"Text_03","Aaaaah!"
"Text_04","Tiresome, truly tiresome! Can you do no better than this?"
"Text_05","We'll fight as hard as you want. Say the word and we'll grow stronger still."
"Text_06","Humph! Oh, will you?"
"Text_07","(Their blows are indeed growing stronger. These impostors may be mightier than Balthazar himself.)"
"Text_08","It is easy! It is all too easy!"
"Text_09","For a brief moment, I thought that my thirst for battle might be satisfied."
"Text_10","Do not fret, Urias. This is the world for which you hoped and wished."
"Text_11","Ugh!"
"Text_12","(This impostor has finally superseded any man. It may be the greatest opponent in my long legacy of battle.)"
"Text_13","(And yet it does not satisfy me. This is not as it should be.)"
"Text_14","Allow me to make your wishes reality."
"Text_15","My wishes? And who has revealed those to you?"
"Text_16","Do I truly need to say? The almighty Nexus."
"Text_17","Nexus. Yes, her."
"Text_18","I see. In that case, she is grossly inept."
"Text_19","The almighty Nexus will bring liberation to the world. You must think yourself a god if you presume to mock her."
"Text_20","I do not presume to be a god, and I have little interest in divine affairs."
"Text_21","So enough of you! Let us bring this to a conclusion, you pale imitation of Balthazar."

"Text_01","What is it that's wrong, Urias? Are you unable to match my swordsmanship?"
"Text_02","Haha! That just may be so."
"Text_03","See? I told you that the almighty Nexus would grant your wishes. Have you at last understood?"
"Text_04","Oomph!"
"Text_05","This is the world for which you wished, Urias Formonde!"
"Text_06","It is not altogether bad."
"Text_07","Then accept it. Wait here in this cradle as the hour of liberation approaches."
"Text_08","But my desires are yet unfulfilled."
"Text_09","What!"
"Text_10","In the end you are nothing more than an impostor, one inferior to the true Balthazar."
"Text_11","That cannot be. I am stronger than Balthazar and I am stronger than even you. That is the very reason this dream was created."
"Text_12","You are speaking only of raw strength. For all your might, you have no will of your own. You are, like so many others, a hollow shell..."
"Text_13","Why do you hunt us, Urias, why? Are we not both vampires?"
"Text_14","I am not to be compared to you and the others. Where I thirst for glory in battle, you merely thirst for blood."
"Text_15","I cannot bear to look upon you gluttons. May your blood be scattered to the earth!"
"Text_16","Strength on its own is directionless. Thirst for battle is helpless. Only when the two join is a mighty warrior born."
"Text_17","…"
"Text_18","An impostor such as you cannot comprehend, but he knew well!"
"Text_19","Oof!"
"Text_20","You have sensed my thirst for victory, yes? Then you have understood my power."
"Text_21","Never will an impostor be anything but an impostor. You were entertaining at first, but... you are a distant second to him."
"Text_22","After all, you'd be deadly if you ever hit the mark. I know fortune-tellers more accurate than you."
"Text_23","The currents of time have carried you away too quickly."
"Text_24","(Balthazar, you were a paragon of might who always thirsted for victory. Why else would I allow you to seal me away?)"
