My alter ego is becoming a big shot - Episode 124
#124
Clan Eupersch (3)
Since all the work to link up with the Hubert Company under Heinz's orders went through his hands, Mulo was able to immediately recognize the identity of Harley who suddenly broke in..
Of course, this was the first time he found out about it.···.
‘Those arms look like dragon scales. Was it really a dragon person? I guess that's why he was able to break through my barrier so naturally. I don't know how I found out and found this place..’
Looking at the situation, it seemed like they had come specifically targeting the Upersh Clan..
Given the situation, sudden support from a strong person is something to be welcomed..
He put aside his complicated thoughts and began to think about how he could take advantage of the current situation..
But at that time, other than Mulo, there were other people who understood Harley's words and frowned..
It was Theodor Jupersch, who ordered the assassination, and Klein, a pure-blooded vampire who carried out the work himself..
“···Klein.”
“Hut—Te, Theodore! I completely erased all traces! Please believe me!”
“There's someone chasing you right now, are you going to turn away??”
“That, that···.”
Klein, who was moving as thoroughly as usual, looked aggrieved, but Theodore just glared at him..
Even so, I was getting on my nerves because the operation had gone astray in many ways, but I guess things got even more complicated because of my subordinate who failed to properly follow up on the mission..
The behind-the-scenes work that was done to make the operation easier had the opposite effect, and I was already having a hard time figuring out how to make an excuse to Bisque afterwards..
‘Even if Klein was discovered, he came here through blood ties. How on earth did they find out we were here??’
It wasn't normal that I was able to come here right away at this timing..
Unless Brokoslock noticed something and made a plan in advance.···.
‘Could it be that the person who touched Hubert was a self-inflicted killer? Because of that, our operation was discovered in advance? No, their preparation is not that thorough to say that. Even now, we still have the upper hand. Then what?···.’
Naturally, Theodore, who led all the plans, had no choice but to get confused..
Of course, it didn't really matter to Harley what they thought..
Pop! Gigiik—!
Metallic sounds leaked out from extremely compressed muscles, and “biological aura” and “madness” burned like flames throughout the body..
Dark red dragon scales began to cover the luminescent engraving, and red and green lights glowed from its sharp, reptile-like eyes..
“ha—.”
Shhh—!
Pure white steam mixed with exhaled breath spread out..
The cells of his entire body, which were already in battle mode, were also activated to the extreme, consuming energy non-stop and emitting steam along with a haze..
“Hehe... Kehehahaha—!”
Madness eats away at my body, laughter bursts out without me even realizing it.
The expressions of the vampires gradually hardened as his light roared through the space..
The mana around him fluctuated violently in response to his emotions, and the madness scattered in the air sympathized with him..
“The one who executed and the one who gave the order... No, you are all just one gang! I will make you feel in your bones what the price is for messing with our Hubert.!”
Harley, the barbarian berserker who caught their attention, laughed fiercely and rushed towards the Eupersch Clan..
The vampire war that stopped for a while.
It resumed with a Yongin intervening..
***
Holy Blood is said to be the pinnacle of Outerica vampires, but their abilities are not properly known..
That is to say, all the sacred blood were the progenitors of each blood lineage, and there are not many of them left in the present era..
Clans whose veins were cut off early were reduced to weak powers, and clans that remained for a long time became the top three powers in the current vampire world..
Eupersch, Brokoslak, and Obypo.
Among them, Eupersch is a case in which the generational change of the Precious Blood has been successfully completed. If the other two blood vessels cannot inherit the Precious Blood,···.
There was a strong possibility that their monopoly would continue in subsequent generations..
Pajijit—!
Of course, that was a meaningless assumption now that the two Holy Bloods were facing off head-on..
Anyone who loses here will disappear into the back of history..
Their fight was both static and dynamic..
-Bisque reached out and grabbed Bricky's neck..
-She cut off his shoulder to prevent him from reaching in the first place..
-He took a step to the side to avoid cutting his shoulder, and cut off the leg of Bricky who was following him..
-She delayed her entry timing by one beat and plunged the bloody spear into Bisque's heart..
Pajijit—!
In each other's thoughts, time axes and cause and effect became entangled, momentum and blood magic collided, and sparks continued to fly at the border of perception..
“Oh my, how can I do this? My subordinates are being squeezed by that dashing young man. Shouldn’t I go and have a look??”
“Hmm, even so, their henchmen are so weak that it's not like they'll collapse right away. Because my subordinates are competent.”
“I'm not proud of the subject that gained the upper hand by suddenly attacking me..”
“Hide your own weaknesses and catch the opponent off guard. Isn't that the way of the world? The one who reacted complacently was at fault..”
On the outside, it looked like they were just standing facing each other and arguing, but they were already engaged in an intense invisible battle right after they met..
If someone else enters that realm without knowing, they will instantly turn to dust without even knowing how they will die..
-Briki, who dodged Bisque's attack, counterattacked and smashed his head..
-Instead, he plunged into her arms and pierced her heart..
-She reached out her hand at the moment Bisque entered and bound him with her blood magic..
-He didn't go in, but instead cut off Bricky's outstretched hand..
-and she···.
Strongly—
“Tsk···?”
She was contemplating a sudden headache and flinched without realizing it..
That moment was fleeting, but it was very fatal in their fight.···.
Pajijit—sigh.—!
It soon became a reality.
Blood spattering and Bricky's right arm cut off and floating in the air..
But that scene didn't last long..
As if time had been rewound, the blood scattered in the air was sucked into the cross section, and the severed arm flew naturally and was seamlessly joined together..
“Tsk···.”
She came to her senses again and massaged her right arm..
Of course, it only looked fine on the outside, and there was no way it would suffer any damage after being pushed into a fight between the Holy Bloods..
By allowing the attack just now, not only did she take a significant amount of blood-absorbing factor, but she also suffered a significant blow to her mental power and vitality..
The aftermath will probably have a significant impact on future fights..
“Hmm... Brokoslag, I guess it was as expected. You're really overdoing it right now.?”
And Bisque, who had finally gained the upper hand, looked at her meaningfully with a wry smile..
‘If it were in its prime, this arrangement wouldn't have been a big deal.···.’
Bricky, who sensed the weakness, frowned slightly..
I chose to hibernate to survive as long as possible, but my lifespan is already nearing its limit..
Also, she woke up abnormally from hibernation, so her current condition was absolutely not normal..
Due to a number of negative factors, the company's capabilities had been reduced to a miserable level compared to its heyday.···.
In the battle of thoughts that went on for a long time, without even realizing it, I ended up revealing a loophole..
“But it's still good enough to deal with a novice like you.?”
“Haha, now that it's time to die, my bravado has only increased. Do you think that kind of bluffing will work on me??”
As he said, there were limits to making up for the lack of capabilities with mature skills..
Mulo's barrier could not have any effect on the Holy Blood people, so they had to fight with only their own abilities, but the mistake just made tipped the scales significantly..
‘I might be able to hold on for a while, but I can't guarantee how long it will take.···.’
Bricky, who maintained a calm appearance on the outside, broke into a cold sweat and gritted his teeth on the inside..
I couldn't show other children something embarrassing, so I promised myself that I would do my best as much as I could..
And when the battle of the Holy Blood continues on the surface in an extremely static manner,.
There was a battlefield more intense than any other battlefield.—.
This was where Harley was going crazy..
“Hahaha! It's really tough! It tastes like tearing apart!”
“Hehehe, what a monster this guy is.!”
“Don't overdo it! The strange energy it uses worsens its regenerative power.!”
There are as many as three Jinhyeol opposing him..
Everyone except Theodore had rushed in to stop it..
After some of the purebloods who had attacked him without knowing what to do were torn apart, it was only when the three Jinhyeols began to join in one by one that he was finally able to maintain balance..
“Haha! Where are you going? come here!”
“···shit!”
They tried to keep Harley in check by avoiding direct confrontation as much as possible, but there was a limit to how they could avoid him due to his high speed..
In the end, Jinhyeol, who took over as the lineman because he was the most durable and resilient, gritted his teeth and raised his blood magic again..
His whole body was already covered in shock-absorbing blood, but he knew from experience that he had already been hit several times..
Sigh—!
“Sigh!”
All these defenses will not last long in those merciless hands..
The blood armor that had hardened and protected against external shocks was broken, and the body inside was crushed and blood splattered..
But at that moment.
“Stop now... just be quiet, you monster.!”
The blood that splattered from his body instantly turned into several vines, wrapping around Harley's body and firmly anchoring it to the surrounding space..
‘Considering his power, this won't last long.···!’
Even if it was only a few seconds, it was enough time for his colleagues.
“Search!”
“······!”
The big red devil's hand aimed at Harley's back with its sharp fingertips, and the silent male and female sharply decapitated him..
Kwazijic! Phuwak—!
Hard dragon scales cracking and blood splashing.
Jinhyeol's attack with all his might caused fatal damage to his body..
There was a large wound on his back that exposed the bones, and about half of his neck was cut off, and blood poured out like a waterfall..
If it were a normal opponent... no, even if it was a dragon, there would inevitably have been a significant loss in combat power at this level..
Clumping—
「Harley's body with "super regeneration".
It was restored in an instant, as if turning back time..
“···Was Yongin originally that regenerative??”
“You have to have seen it to know. ···shit.”
Seeing that sight, the Jinhyeol of Eupersch took a breath and gritted their teeth..
With that level of regenerative power, it was even better than those of true vampires..
There wasn't much known about the Yongin race because it was so rare, but I knew it wasn't as bad as I thought..
“Yongin’s blood. Let’s check it out... sigh! Hehe! Wow.”
Jinhyeol licked Harley's blood from his hand and frowned and retched..
“What's this? Is the blood of a dragon really like this? This is dirtier than monster blood!”
I expected it to be dragon blood that cannot be easily tasted, but his blood was so mixed and deteriorated that it was impossible to eat..
Isn’t this better than monster blood??
“It's dirty! That's harsh.!”
Harley, who had already fully recovered, grumbled in dissatisfaction at that harsh evaluation..
Is there anyone as healthy and clean as you?!
Of course, due to the nature of the body, which consumes a lot of energy, only meat is eaten, but···.
‘By the way, the Jinhyeol three are still a bit tricky. No matter how much the efficiency has improved, it is not 100% digested with the heart of the light dragon, so there is nothing we can do..’
In addition, the average combat power of the Jinhyeol of Eupersch was higher than that of Brokoslag..
If it hadn't been strengthened with "Refined Blood Seal", it wouldn't have been even an opponent..
‘Now that it has been strengthened... we may be able to gain a slight advantage. Still, I never thought the level difference would be this much. I understand why Brokoslak was stuck in the periphery despite being in the top three..’
Even so, it could be said that he managed to save his face by swallowing up a small kingdom through a long period of work..
Harley relaxed slightly and looked around her surroundings carefully again..
Beyond the three Jinhyeols who were tense and preparing for battle under his gaze, they also checked other battlefields..
Thanks to him holding on to many Jinhyeol, the rest of the battlefield was going much easier..
Frisia, who faced Theodor Jupersch one-on-one, was doing quite well against him, who previously would not have been a fight..
Mulo was leading his clan members and smoothly pushing back against the purebloods over 40..
He saw the assassin who was his first target among them, but revenge would have to be postponed until later..
however.
‘Oh, by the way... is it okay over there??’
In the fight between the Holy Bloods, which is actually the most important,.
A crack was forming that would determine the direction of this battlefield..
