Episode 258 – The Devil Who Drinks Blood 26 –

A huge force swirls and rushes.

That power moved forward, devouring everything in its path, as if it wanted to destroy everything.

Blood stains on the ground, stones, corpses, and some of the remains.

And even living things.

Everything began to tear apart in front of the attack.

A disaster that will engulf everything.

The disaster that they ignored because it was not their problem ended up facing them.

“If you can’t avoid it anyway… ”

“I didn’t want to use this method… I am helpless… ”

But the two intelligences were not all idiots.

Even if disaster strikes. Even if it is a natural disaster where revenge is meaningless.

It is the intelligence that prevents and responds to it.

Jjiik ㅡ

The body of Luciano, the Red Blood Archduke, splits apart.

The enormous amount of blood contained in it is torn out in all directions.

The blood stains that burst out mixed together in the air.

A huge blood mist was created.

Hwiikㅡ

And the fog was sucked into the vortex I returned.

Just like that

On the other side, a very different story unfolded.

Even before the attack arrived, the man’s body was rapidly decomposing.

The flesh is drying up and the muscles are rotting away.

The bones turned into powder as if they had been finely ground and began to scatter.

Kwaaang ㅡ

Soon my attack swept over the place where they were.

There was nothing left in that place.

One side of the auditorium disappeared, leaving it completely exposed.

Now, even without looking up, I can see the total solar eclipse in the sky.

The place where the attack swept away.

Fortunately, the humans took refuge on the other side.

Two villains who disappeared.

It was as if the situation was now over.

That would have been really nice.

“What about this? You expect it, right? I couldn’t do it?”

Eventually, the situation changed.

Luciano tears his own body and drains the blood.

The blood was absorbed by the attack I returned.

At this point the attack was dissipated by one wall of the auditorium.

It slowly emerged from the remnants of the attack and took on the same form as before.

“Wow? That one again? What is it?”

But there was another story going on.

Suddenly, the corpse lying on the floor vibrates.

The body becomes distorted and soon begins to discolor and deteriorate.

Distortion. It was truly a sight that could be called the epitome of distortion.

“This is coming alive.”

The body whose identity was unknown went through various processes and became recognizable.

Dmitri, the commander of the Lion Legion, who thought he had become a corpse.

He had appeared again.

“They said he was immortal or a cockroach or something. We do not have the power to come back to life after death. Actually, I guess you are closer to immortality.”

“This technology has severe limitations, so it’s not really a lie. Rather, high-ranking vampires like you don’t die without any special conditions. That’s more dangerous.”

The two intelligent beings had a friendly conversation as if they were old friends.

It was a completely different scene from earlier, when they were trying to decide between life and death.

This… It’s not good…

“I think it would be right to cooperate right now.”

“If that guy exists anyway… Because neither side will achieve their goal.”

A union that suddenly occurred in accordance with my expectations.

Clearly, Luciano’s goal is to bring back the founder.

Dmitry’s goal would be to escape from this land and destroy the Holy Emperor.

Those two people were trying to target me first.

And it didn’t take long to realize why.

“Aha… therefore… People here can’t get out alive, right? Because I am afraid of the Holy Emperor who will intervene after this. Isn’t that right?”

“According to their original purpose, they should have become vampires. Because if you were there, that would be impossible.”

“I don’t know about the reinforcements. The people in here should at least disappear. At least no one knows that the Legion was directly involved… Shouldn’t there be one?”

The reason they attack me is simple.

The purpose of vampires.

The purpose of the corps.

The essence is the same.

The fall of Seonghwangcheong.

And it takes strength to achieve that.

Both vampires and legions tried to achieve this through progenitors.

This resulted in a division between the legion and the principality.

“Ha… In order to defeat Seonghwangcheong with an unstable founder, Seonghwangcheong must be mistaken by the appearance of the founder and not prepare for the immortal.

In the case of vampires, they need hostages to invade the academy and buy time at least for a while when public opinion wants war… That’s it… ? Ha, the situation is really messed up.”

The legion cannot engage in an all-out war against the Holy Emperor with an incomplete progenitor.

However, upon seeing the appearance of the progenitor, Seonghwangcheong only prepared for the vampire.

If an immortal invades, things will be different.

So they kill all the witnesses and the vampire wanders around looking for the moon blood.

They planned a plan to seize the founder and run away.

Because there will be no witnesses anyway.

However, unlike their operation, hundreds of witnesses are still alive.

Because vampires cannot avoid an all-out war with humans in the current situation.

We have to somehow turn those remaining in the academy into vampires.

What if everyone in the entire academy becomes a vampire?

This is because the nobles who move their troops independently of public opinion will hesitate and thus gain time.

And my power is a direct factor that interferes with becoming a vampire.

The Corps must eliminate me because I am a witness.

Vampires must get rid of me because I prevent them from becoming vampires.

The person who interfered most with their operation was me.

“What. You’ve experienced something worse, right? You can do it, right?”

Even when I was much weaker than I am now.

I fought against a guardian of the World Tree who was much stronger than them.

There’s no reason I can’t do it.

Kwaaah-

Due to Dmitry’s black magic, lumps of flesh begin to appear in the air.

And Luciano’s blood begins to surround him.

For vampires, blood is a source of power, like magic power or aura.

However, because it is blood, the augmentation effect also appears on immortals who cannot possess auras or magic power.

Moreover, with Luciano’s power…

“It takes time to become completely immortal. Please give me some time until then.”

“Let’s do that.”

Perhaps because there were many problems in moving the progenitor, Dmitry seemed to have decided to attack with an immortal instead of the progenitor.

In order to prepare for the attack, Luciano tries to hold on.

The worst~

Scythe, spear, sword, sword, blunt weapon.

Contradictory weapons that are made of things that cannot be compared to steel, but are actually harder than steel, are made with his blood.

Just like the Igigeo swordsmanship seen in martial arts magazines. The weapons that were created came to me in harmony.

It was clearly an attack from one person, but it was a sophisticated and complex herbivorous attack, as if dozens of beings were attacking at the same time.

‘And in terms of power, he will be more overwhelming than me.’

If it were me before, I would have thought it was unreasonable.

The level of technology is also high, thanks to the power accumulated over tens of thousands of years of living. If I were to fight head-on, I would be pushed away.

but.

“You didn’t think the same thing would work again, did you?”

Open both arms and take the shape of a cross.

When the attack reaches my fingertips, it rotates and begins to wrap around the attack.

Weapons made with countless blood follow my spinning hand.

The attacks slowly started to follow my hand, but as soon as I put my hands together and took the shape of catching a transparent ball, they came together in small numbers.

Like a huge Taegeuk pattern.

All of Luciano’s attacks were in the palm of my hand.

It was a force that rotated roughly, drawing a Taegeuk pattern.

That’s right, it couldn’t escape my grasp.

“If there is a difference in strength, it is through technology. If you can’t overcome it with technology, you can use the opponent’s strength.”

The power that lies in my hands.

It radiates that power directly to the opponent.

Quagga River

The force that was rotating while drawing Taegeuk changes the direction of the force and attacks.

The power is not the same as before.

Rather, it became stronger.

Because I can control the direction of the force that touches my body.

Even if I had to add extra strength, I could do so without any hesitation.

Even if the opponent attacks, it counters with stronger force.

It is a new mystery that targets opponents of a higher weight class.

“Damn… ”

His face distorted as if he sensed that the attack had become more powerful.

Luciano, he is the leader of the vampires. A leader who has run a country for tens of thousands of years.

For him, deciding on the best situation was surprisingly simple.

Kwaaa

He was hit by a wide-ranging attack himself.

As long as you can reflect attacks, your influence is limited.

So, it is better to at least confront them through immortals.

After a simple decision, he struck instead of attacking.

Even if he got hit, he didn’t die anyway.

“Auror… Awakening… ?”

“Now, wait a minute? Isn’t Yeongsik 17 years old? But I’m already an Auror Master… ?”

“Huh… ”

The eyes of those around me who were watching me change.

Unlike before, when they were filled with despair, they look at me with eyes full of hope.

“Be careful. If you do it wrong… It works.”

“Please hold on just a little longer… ”

Dmitri and Luciano.

and me.

Those who are eaten and those who eat.

The strong and the weak.

Those who die and those who kill.

They were the eaters, the strong, and the killers.

The relationship was reversed.

Sigh-

I made a joke that some people would consider grotesque, and my eyes widened.

The counterattack has begun.
