Victor Dalton, Grand Vizier of the V&V Empire, woke up with one hell of a body change.

Gone were his limbs, his mouth, his wings, and his tail. He could feel a ghostly impression of them as if he had been amputated, but he had no hand to facepalm with. Scratch that; Victor no longer felt, or at least, not in a human way. He could no longer distinguish cold from warmth, scents, or tastes. He could only see and hear as if watching through a television screen.

Observing the world through the sculpted eye sockets of his [Black Grail], Victor Dalton had become something more than a man.

He had become a cup!

As expected, his soul had moved into the [Black Grail] after Akhenapep murdered him. He had cheated death, even after losing his Heaven Insurance. And from what he could see, Xolotl had the [Black Grail] placed on an altar inside an underground sacrificial chamber, like a holy relic.

Nobody was around, except for two skeleton guards standing watch over the entrance.

Victor was finally safe.
