Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn As A Vampire Dragon With a System

-----

She was born in a world where humans developed abilities after a cataclysmic incident known as the apocalypse.

​​

A wave of miasma fell over Earth and covered it with deadly miasma. Most of the population was killed, while the ones that remained were mutated, gaining super abilities.

The animals of the world mutated as well, becoming rampaging beasts that filled the world with destruction, humanity was at peril… or well, it was, as such an event happened dozens of years in the past.

In this world where she was born, superpowers were a staple for every born human being, as the years went by, more people were born with even stronger and stranger abilities until one boy… was born with the power that contained the same substance that brought the Apocalypse to the world.

He was soon called "The Child of Chaos", and she knew about him, as the news about his death quickly filled the world.

An organization known as the Resistance began to sabotage and leak confidential information made by the organizations and the scientist groups that worked in the Child of Chaos, leaking the cruelty he underwent, the horrible tortures, everything…

Such cruelty was known all around the world, and many people began to become more conscious about what was happening in the world, and what was happening with the young people born with strange and powerful abilities who had no families to back them up.

However… things didn't change as much. People weren't as interested at the end, and mostly everyone was concentrated on their own lives, on surviving in this world by themselves, knowing all of this… changed absolutely nothing.

But this girl saw it all, and couldn't help but relate with him… to see herself, her own suffering on him.

Because she was being experimented on as well.

She and several other children were part of another batch of children without parents, purchased by large government organizations in the dark.

These children were used as guinea pigs to experiment with all sorts of items that used the power of abilities. Their goal now was to use the Miasma they harvested from The Child of Chaos to create new users of Chaos Magic.

She was one of such experiments, a big group of children that were used as guinea pigs to be experimented with.

She only knew about solitude and about suffering… not so different from him.

Her empty days of suffering continued for years, as her body was tortured, and countless fluids were injected into her body through all sorts of syringes.

She was one of those children born with lesser abilities, the ability to make herself slippery by secreting some kind of slimy fluid over her body, like how frogs keep themselves wet.

The scientist experimented with her until they could finally find a way to make her ability mutate, their goal was to make her secrete miasma.

She had known pain for so long that she had lost the feeling of it along the way, the only thing that kept her from not biting her tongue and killing herself was the drugs that forced her to obey the scientists.

Many types of special artifacts were used, made of magic and abilities these artifacts had the power to modify the body of a person and make them completely paralyzed, for an easier time controlling and modifying them.

She never met her parents, nor had made many friends, she was mostly devoid of feelings.

But deep inside she always thought about the boy, about the videos she once saw before coming here, his suffering always broke her heart, even more now that she was undergoing the same treatment.

This world was truly horrible. Even after the people saw such footage, there was barely any consequence for the people that participated in this experiment.

Even when she never saw him but through such videos, she developed a feeling of attachment to him, something that transcended everything she went through…

One day, at the age of 19, she began to melt.

The scientist was shocked, but her ability had successfully mutated after many years of experimentations. She ended mutating her ability, and it now gave her the power to… melt into a black ooze.

This black ooze was… miasma!

She had acquired something that surprised even the scientist, the power to become miasma itself!

She was therefore named Abyss, as dark blackness within her miasma was so deep that it resembled an abyss.

Everyone was fascinated by her, however, her powers were too dangerous and incredibly hard to contain, as she could become the very miasma that was so dangerous to handle, even more, toxic than radiation itself, the girl managed to slip through the items and artifacts used in her, devouring them, and then managing to escape her captivity.

She felt the sudden urge to escape, to keep living, something within her told her that she needed to live, to live for that boy that she pitied so much, for that boy that she always thought about… she wanted to live for him and try to find happiness for him…

She became like a monster, attacking the scientists and the guards, and taking many lives without any remorse. She even enjoyed killing all these damned people that brought her so much suffering.

The moment she died, her slimy body had felt stiff, and then a ray of ice froze her alive.

Although the scientists regrated it, they ended using powerful guns that neutralized abilities and managed to kill her before she was to escape the facility, freezing her body and then cutting it into pieces to use as materials for further investigation.

Her little and feeble mind had only know freedom for a few seconds before it was all taken away from her once more.

Despairing, she fell into eternal darkness, the abyss…

Abyss thought that she was going to disappear soon after… Although she was given books to read sometimes, she never believed in a god, and always thought that after death, the only thing waiting for her would be the void.

She never believed in any such concepts as Souls either, she believed that her consciousness would simply disappear.

Yet… why wasn't she disappearing?

Her consciousness remained within the darkness that came to her when she died.

Suddenly, a strange presence, something bizarre yet so close to her came to her, she couldn't see it, but she could feel the vastness of such a being… and it was very familiar, so familiar…

"Poor child…"

The voice of a woman resonated through her ears, as she couldn't see anyone speaking but darkness.

"You had a hard life, didn't you?"

Abyss couldn't speak back, she had no mouth.

"I know it sounds shameless to ask… But I want you to go meet my son," sighed the entity.

A son? What was this woman talking about?

"You see… it was a boy in your world, named Chaos… I can see that you're connected to him now, your soul has been mutated by his miasma…"

The boy? The boy from earth? The Chaos Child?

"Don't worry… I will make sure to give you a little help… Even as chained as I am, I still need to act responsibly… I regret what has happened to him but… there was no choice…" sighed the woman, she seemed to be about to cry.

Abyss felt pity for her, whoever she was, she was very sad, and could sense her emotions.

"You're so considerate… Don't worry, I am fine… Please, take care of him, I implore of you…"

Abyss didn't really know what was happening, but she accepted, she didn't have any other choice anyway.

"Thank you…"

Suddenly, Abyss was absorbed by a strange wormhole, as her little soul flew through the endless Grand Cosmos, crossing through space and time…

Cosmic Essence coated her body as she reached a certain stream of energy connecting to a faraway planet, where she kept flying through, sent by this entity to take care of the Chaos Child… it seemed that somehow, it was in here?

The girl didn't know what to do exactly, nor what would happen.

But the moment she was suddenly summoned into the black ooze she was in her previous life, she couldn't help but feel happiness… the handsome young man that grabbed her, despite the change in appearance… was no one else than the boy.

She knew it… deep inside of her, the connection of her soul made with his miasma was there.

She was brought to him miraculously by a mysterious entity… She couldn't help but feel grateful for whoever that being was.

She was merged with the thoughts and devotion of the materials used to summon her, and a desire to protect the young man in front of her grew more, as she entangled him with her slimy body and didn't let go of him…

She was finally able to meet him…
