Devil Slave (Satan system)

Chapter 785  Will And Desire 4

Victor found out painfully that Ulric's goal from the very start had never been to live in peace and harmony. But rather, his goal was to take Victor's position as Alpha, and take Allison as his wife.

The Story was that Allison, as the only child of an Alpha was supposed to take over the position as head of the Werewolf clan, but Ulric would not have such a thing. Then again, he could not make any attempt on her life, after all, she was protected by a very strong Deep level Demon. Allison had found favor in the eyes of one of Mr Augustus's children. She had found favor in the eyes of Agnes, and Agnes was known to be a very difficult person to please.

She had destroyed settlements and even threatened the former alpha by the neck at one time. With such a backer, no one was foolish enough to stand against Allison's rule of the Ironback Werewolf clan. But power, with its enticing scent, had a way of capturing the heart of an ambitious man, and that was exactly what Ulric was. He was a very ambitious man. And he tried every means possible to ensure that he became Alpha. He even went as far as to get an audience with the Great Demon, Mr Augustus, and make a deal to seal his position. Unfortunately for him, he had come across a person like Lenny. Ulric had thought Lenny to be just another ant on his path to power, but lenny had proven him wrong and even stripped him of a way back to the eighth earth. Ulric had believed that Allison and the others getting trapped in Imperilment were the very heavens giving him another chance at life, and presenting to him the limb of forgiveness. This time around, he swore to take advantage of the position as best as he could.

Luckily for him, he had an adviser like Gadu, known for his strategic wisdom.

The first step was to win Victor's approval and trust. This was something that had taken him a total of ten years. Gadu had advised that he was to be very patient if he wanted this to work, and he grinded through those ten years with gritted teeth.

After all, even though Victor held back much of his power, he was still not an opponent he could dream of beating. Ulric had seen it himself, with Victor using his power to kill countless monsters that fed the new tribe for months. These were monsters that Ulric would never even dream of standing before; otherwise, he would be turned into an after-thought snack. Also, Victor had the trust of the people and, best of all, the love of Allison. In the ten years he waited, Allison had three children with Victor. All of whom called Ulric their godfather. They would play with him, and he would even teach them how to hunt. However, the moment Victor's weakness started, Ulric showed his true colors. It first happened on a day when Victor, unable to control his power any more, went up in an explosion. An explosion that dug deep into the earth, and unfortunately killed one of his children, a boy of two years old. This sparked a lot of controversies amongst the tribe, and while Victor and Allison were mourning their loss and pain, Ulric added flames to the situation. In no time, many people were rallied to his side. after all, he was already a trusted person in their society. The word at the time was, "If he cannot protect his own family, how then will he protect us, his people?" The Human heart was a very terrible place, and it functioned based on desire, and the need to survive. The people had forgotten how he guided and protected them for all the years they had been together, and at the slight point of danger, they deserted Victor. After Ulric had taken the tribe to his side, he was not satisfied. He wanted more. After all, for these ten years, he had been lusting after Allison's body, and wanted to make her his. In truth, Victor could have just blasted him away and been done with it, but after the death of his own son, Victor had become a broken man.

He was afraid of his own power and the fact that he would hurt his family even more than he had ever done. The weight of being a father and protector was heavy on his shoulders and it crushed him heavily. Besides, from time to time, Ulric would come to taunt him, and add fuel to the fire that was his pain. In a few months, the entire tribe had deserted him.

At the time, Ulric's words had even begun to sink into his head. After all, Victor was at the lowest point of his life. Every night was filled with the torment of his son's face. He would remember how he could call him 'daddy' and how he had cherished him from the very day he was born. And yet, unable to hold back his power, he had accidentally killed the boy.

There was no pain or torture worse for a loving father than this one. Victor was even afraid to see his own wife, who was also grieving the loss. And worse of all, he was scared to look at his other children. His family was divided and broken. Regardless, Allison had decided to stay with him. It was true that she hated him for what happened, but she did not blame him for it. After all, it was not his fault. If the Plane was strong enough, then he would not need to go through the hell he was going through. She decided to stay with him no matter what. To live and die with him. But the pain had become so much for Victor to bear, and he sought more than any thing to make amends. Therefore, in the depths of the night, he looked for the source of the death. But with the kind of power he had, his death was not going to be an easy one to come by.

If he did it wrongly, he could blow up the entire sub plane. His only choice was to do it in such a way that his power would benefit the plane and maybe increase its threshold for power. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
