Max had a broken left leg, crushed right ankle, multiple wounds to the stomach and a red HP bar on the cusp on touching 0, hence when an angry Mazda hobbled towards him Max knew he was fucked.

Max was in no position to fight his opponent, as he was in no position to use his most significant weapon of agility and perception.

As things stood a single attack from Mazda would send Max to the afterlife and he had little to no chance of evading the attack.

The positive part on the other hand was that Mazda's position was not much better than Max.

His HP was also nearly 0 and he could also potentially die from a single attack from Max if it landed fair and square.

The only difference now was that Max had no offensive capabilities either with his mana down to near zero which meant that he had to rely on the Agni-Astra or his bloodline ability to launch an attack.

With great difficulty, Max got up to his waist and faced his opponent, the first thing that he noticed when he got up was that the enemy had a maniacal expression to his face akin to that of Marcus Aurelius when he charged at him after he made out with Asiva.

Max knew that expression very well, it was the expression of a man who had nothing to lose anymore.

Such a man was dangerous, he had already been pushed past the point of fear and now he was akin to a beast with its sights set on the hunt.

Such men could not be reasoned with or discouraged. The only way to stop them was to kill them.

" I'll kill you! I'll kill you! I'll kill you and end your dreams just like you ended mine today.

I was supposed to become the chieftain of this planet, I was supposed to succeed after Erasmus, I was supposed to become a champion of my people, but now my name will be spat on, my legacy will be tarnished, my children will not want to say my name!

I will kill you!

I will kill you for everything you have done to me you bloodsucking vampire

I'll end your life just like you ended my dreams today" Mazda said as he raised his spear to pierce Max.

Max waited patiently for Mazda to be consumed in his rage and completely focused on the attack before countering, as at the last split second before Mazda attacked Max with his spear Max countered with his bloodline move

[ Blood Javelin ]

Mazda was pierced by 4 blood spears created by Max from the blood of the countless fallen comrades of Mazda all around the battlefield as his attack went cold with his HP hitting 0

-15,500 CRITICAL HIT!

*Ptui*

Mazda coughed a mouthful of blood as the pupils in his eyes constricted and the maniacal expression on his face faded, being replaced by a blank expression of death.

For 5 full seconds Mazda stood on his feet before losing balance and falling into Max's lap as he breathed his last breath in the embrace of his most hated enemy.

" Fuck that was close " Max said as he pushed Mazda aside and began rolling on the floor trying to absorb blood and regain his HP

It seemed to be a victory for Max, but it was not until 5 minutes after killing Mazda that Max finally let himself have a laugh and embrace the victory

For 5 minutes after killing Mazda, Max was vigilant as he tried to determine if there were other opponents left alive around himself.

Only when he was sure that the entire Southern fort forces had been neutralised did he begin to laugh as he absorbed and drank dirty blood littered all around the floor.

Max had not even realised how parched his throat felt until he took his first gulp of blood after which he could just not stop himself from drinking more.

Throwing his concealer mask aside, Max let himself have a short moment of insanity as he could not tackle all the rush he felt from achieving the impossible.

" I DID IT, I DID IT HAZRIEL, I NEUTRALISED THE SOUTHERN FORT WITH 4 MEN " Max shouted into the sky as he clutched his green winged angel bracelet tightly.

*************

( Meanwhile Hazriel )

" You watching this nemesis? His probability of victory was at 1.2%, but he still won, although he doesn't see it, his karmic value has shot up astronomically after this fight.

It's going to make unbelievable waves in the grand scheme of things " Hazriel said to her A.I. nemesis as she just witnessed one of the most important chapters in Max's journey to the top.

Hazriel had already seen Max's potential life paths, and she knew how slim his chances to become the vampire king really were.

One of the big challenges where Max failed nearly 99/100 futures was this fight at the southern fort, yet in this iteration he made it through.

He was one step closer to becoming the vampire king and Hazriel watched his progress with a heart full of content.

This boy in which she had invested in was finally starting to shape into a lovely prospect that would make ripples on the universal stage.

" Yes master, with this victory his name is going to be sung in every vampire household.

Even if Aurelius wants to suppress him, they won't be able to do it openly and he will be hailed as a hero.

It's quite the interesting development" nemesis the A.I. replied in her blended mechanical voice.

Just as Hazriel was going to stop peering into Max's life, she heard him screaming to the heaven and asking if she was watching as Hazriel broke into a bigger smile than she already had on her face and blushed

" Oh I'm watching you closely, and as things stand I think I'll even meet you soon " Hazriel whispered as she cut off the transmission with a warm heart.

She had began seeing it with the worst expectations, but it ended with a monumental victory.
