SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God novel Chapter 428

Chapter 428: Live or die?

The Roc’s screech tore through the heavens, its domain blazing hotter, every beat of its wings stoking the furnace into an inferno. The beast poured everything into smothering the intruder on its back. But Damon only laughed.

"Not bad... but let me show you what real fire tastes like." Lethal poison seeped in from his claw and began to spread all over the roc’s body.

The roc was not like the other demons. It was a peak C rank beast and possessed a strong and sturdy physique innately. Damon’s poison wasn’t enough to simply take it out in one hit. But it was more than enough to make the bird beast feel some real pain.

The Roc thrashed violently, its colossal frame blotting out the sky as it tried to shake him off. Demonfire rippled over its feathers in desperate waves, but the poison was already sinking deep. Wherever Damon’s claw had pierced, blackened veins began to crawl outward.

The mighty beast’s screeches turned from fury to pain, each beat of its wings less steady than the last. Damon smiled. "You don’t have to struggle so much. I can offer you a way out."

[Tame] He immediately activated his taming skill.

The Roc’s infernal domain wavered, flames dimming, collapsing inward as its body betrayed it. It was truly suffering from the effects of the poison. Still, its eyes burned with refusal, molten hatred glaring back at the parasite riding its spine.

It looked like the Roc would tear itself apart before ever submitting. Its wings cut the sky with hurricane force, and its molten eyes were defiant with the sheer pride of a beast that had never bowed to anything.

Ding! [Tame] has failed to activate

Damon smiled. Then the poison inside the roc flared again. The infernal blaze sputtered. Its screeches faltered into guttural croaks, and its body shuddered under him, flight growing clumsy and uneven.

"Submit," Damon commanded. "There is nothing wrong in submitting yourself to someone stronger than you. Or do you prefer to die?"

The roc screeched defiantly. It definitely did not agree with him.

Damon only laughed at that. "Yes, yes. I am being a hypocrite. I probably would not submit to someone else either. But then again, I also wouldn’t want to die. You could always become my tamed beast and, down the line, find ways to stab me in the back and take me down, you know? I think that’s what I would do!"

The roc once again screeched in defiance. Damon let out a sigh. He took out a healing potion and shoved it in the roc’s mouth. The bird seemed surprised at the sudden burst of energy, but before it could make sense of it, the relief turned into dread. Another round of torture began.

Ding! [You have successfully tamed Demonic Roc (Level 200)]
