Precious Blood (3)
The moment he ascended the Holy Blood, Heinz II's senses expanded endlessly..
The transcendental ability to perceive synesthesia has surpassed its limits, and not only space but also time has become tangible.—.
The spirit, heightened by the rise in rank, was able to perceive part of the flow of cause and effect that filled the world..
‘I see... Is this the way the Holy Bloods have been fighting?.’
Heinz instinctively realized.
If you put a little more thought into it, you can touch on some of the edges of the flow..
‘It consumes a lot of mental power, and Heinz's power is limited to the surrounding area... If this is the case, I wouldn't dare to come into contact with such a lowly being..’
Even before the opponent uses any means, the result is already 'evasion', and this attack is determined to be a 'hit' the moment it makes up its mind..
How on earth do you deal with someone like this?.
‘If it weren't for Bricky, Harley and Heinz would have had a hard time fighting a war of attrition.···.’
The fact that those two were able to continue their normal clash with Bisque Jupersch was all possible thanks to her keeping them in check..
If she hadn't been there, Hans, a being of a higher rank than Bisque, would have had no choice but to step forward..
I could say I was lucky in many ways..
And the luck was still continuing..
《An object grows by achieving conditions. The skills “Concealment” and “Invisibility” are combined to evolve into the special skill “Denial of Existence”..》
As the rank of the Holy Blood increased, the two abilities that were exploited by vampires from other dimensions and robbed through "Mixed Blood Evolution" were combined and evolved..
Even its name is an unusual skill..
‘···This too was influenced by the power of the Precious Blood. A stealth skill that twists cause and effect to deny the very fact of being detected. It can be said that it is superior in every way compared to before..’
It would have been nice if other skills had evolved as well, but hoping that far would be greedy..
Heinz controlled the power boiling in his body and opened the object information window..
-Entity name: Heinz II
-Race: Vampire (Holy Blood))
-Common characteristics: 「Mind Herb」, 「Persona」, 「Mysterious Index」」
-Individual characteristics: 「Blood Clan (Holy Blood Holy Blood)」, 「Mixed Blood Evolution」, 「Mystery of Blood」, 「Purified Blood Essence」, 「Denial of Existence」, 「Acceleration」, 「Super Regeneration」, 「Seeing Through」」
-Special note: Using “mixed-blood evolution,” he forcibly inherited the sacred blood and achieved evolution. It is possible to exert some control over the 'Eupersch' blood vessel. All abilities have grown explosively, and it has become possible to manipulate some of the edges of cause and effect..
‘Oh, I didn't expect this..’
Dominion over vampires inherited from Eupersch's blood..
It seems that as they feasted on the Precious Blood, their influence over it also came with it..
Although it was not a normal succession and the authority was significantly diminished, the modifier ‘a little’ was added.···.
‘I was planning on using the “Refined Blood Tablet” anyway, so it wouldn’t matter. But thanks to you, things will be easier..’
It goes without saying that it was easier to deal with someone who could control it a little bit, rather than someone who actively opposed and sharpened the edge..
Unlike the Brokoslak, the Eupersch are spread all over the continent, so I was worried about how to absorb them..
“after.”
When Heinz looked away with a smile of satisfaction on his mind,.
He was able to make eye contact with Bricky, who had been looking at him with interest through half-closed eyes..
“Hehehe—as expected, it’s amazing, isn’t it? This is my first time seeing a new blood being born. And that too through predation of their own kind..”
Even when he sank his teeth into the back of Bisque Eupersch's neck, and even when he climbed to the throne through compatriot predation, she was the one who just watched quietly..
She must have known that if Heinz became Holy Blood, she would no longer be able to fight him as her condition was not normal..
‘Of course, Harley was on guard just in case, but she could have easily tried to interfere, but she just watched..’
At this point, it can be safely assumed that there are no hostile intentions..
Anyway, she won't be able to do anything about Heinz now that he has become a saint..
“That's my ability. But I also admit that I owe a lot to you, Bricky. Make sure to pay this debt.”
“Umm—we were involved in this situation anyway, so just giving us a moment would be enough, right? I have a lot of stories I want to talk about..”
Where had her sharp appearance from battle gone? She answered leisurely, with an attitude as saggy as pickled cabbage..
Since I needed to know what her intentions were anyway, it was necessary to set up a place and have a serious conversation..
But for now···.
“Hahaha! This was truly a rare sight. But now that my revenge is over, I think I'll go back! I gave up what I was doing and came here.!”
Harley, who had been quietly watching, naturally came forward and greeted them..
Harley and Heinz's joint operation was successfully completed, so it was time to disband the party..
“Yes, Harley. Thanks, it was a great help. Don't forget this grace.”
“Oh, it's no big deal! Because they touched my friend first. And isn't that person on the same boat as Hubert Company? Wow!”
“Well then, please take good care of me in the future. Hubert Trading Company will pay more attention to this as well..”
“Thank you for doing so! Then I'll leave!”
Immediately after the conversation to show people around, Harley proudly disappeared out of the building through the door..
At the end of the fight, Mulo's barrier was lifted, and since Heinz, who became Lord and Holy Blood, gave permission, there was no one who could stop him..
“Hmm, is it okay if I just leave it like this? From his first appearance, he seemed suspicious in many ways.···.”
Bricky, whose eyes were almost closed now, mumbled in a sleepy voice..
“Okay. I already have something in mind.”
Heinz dismissed her concerns lightly..
And Heinz sent her, who had now started to nod off while standing, back to her dorm first, and then moved on to clean up after her..
‘I guess you'll be very busy for a while..’
From understanding the clan's status immediately after the battle to managing the remnants of Eupersch, and subsequent response..
There was still a mountain of work left..
***
A long two-handed sword held in one hand and thick black armor covering the entire body..
The being had the shape of a human, but not a single one of those present considered him to be human..
Let alone the red glow that glows from the corners of the eyes and the burning black magic, the dark aura of death that overwhelms just by looking at it is something that humans can never possess..
And above all, they knew very well its existence.
After all, isn't he like a legend to those who walk the path of the devil?.
“···Death Knight Lord, Karam.”
“You are the commander of the immortal army... How could such a monster be here?···!”
Due to the sudden activation of the barrier, the area was cut off from the outside world and an attack was immediately launched..
The defensive equipment laid out from the entrance was completely destroyed, and the chimeras and modified dark knights placed as guards could not stop him even for a moment..
In such a situation, he eventually reached the center of the hideout in an instant, so the warlocks of the Tulk Kingdom branch of the Oath of Reverse Heaven had no choice but to be very nervous..
“···Recently, with the number of branches suddenly losing contact, it was thought that the denomination's offensive had begun. Could it be that this was done by the Immortal Army?.”
Oldman, the branch leader in charge of this branch and one of the elders of the Oath of Yeokcheon, muttered softly and frowned..
The immortal army moved directly, which meant that the second coming of the immortal king was watching them.—.
That meant that they had no choice but to scrap their plan, which was only meant to gain benefits between the continent and the Immortal King..
‘···Let's think about that later. For now, delivering this news is the top priority. Considering it hasn't been known for a while, it seems like they prepared quite thoroughly.···.’
After organizing his thoughts, he looked around confidently..
Dark knights lined up at the front and warlocks already preparing spells..
It was tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of pounds..
This is the central headquarters that oversees all branches of the Tulk Kingdom, and it was on a different level from other places where communication had been lost..
Although the entrance was breached in a sudden surprise attack, the people there were initially just arrows placed to buy time..
In reality, it was the central headquarters that had completed thorough preparations during that time..
‘No matter how great Karam is, he has his limits on his own. Even if you summon low-level undead, there will be limits..’
In fact, this was their home base, and of course it was a place where layers of magic were installed to help defend the base..
Strengthening allies, weakening enemies, and all kinds of other minor black magic..
[Wow, this is more than I thought..]
Karam, facing them, muttered softly..
Due to the influence of magic on the mind, fear was removed, concentration was raised to the limit, and their spirit became sharp as a blade..
A satisfied smile spread across Oldman's face at the sight of the elite unit not even afraid of death..
“I don't know why the Immortal King is targeting us, but he came all the way in alone. We must have looked quite ridiculous, Karam! You will pay for your arrogance!”
He confidently shouted in a confident voice and slowly raised his dark magic and prepared a destruction spell..
No matter how thorough our preparations were, our opponent was a monster even in history books, so we needed to do our best to reduce damage to our troops..
But before he could even weave the magic···.
[Look at that, Karam... The girl didn't ask you for support for nothing.···?]
[Hmm, indeed. It is inevitable in order to fulfill the king's orders..]
Behind Karam, another being appeared..
A woman wearing a black veil and dress that is clearly visible even though her shape is blurry..
Just hearing that voice makes you feel dizzy and shakes your will to live. What is her identity?···.
“Banshee Queen, Olivia···!”
Oldman's expression distorted..
It wouldn't be surprising if it was just Karam, but to add one more Undead Legion official to it??
Even as if she hadn't come alone, ghostly undead were appearing one by one..
But unfortunately for them, that wasn't the end of the executives who came here..
Sooooo—
In an instant, the surrounding floor began to turn black and emit a gloomy energy..
And in the seething darkness.
Puhuaak—!
Rattling—clattering!
Gigi Geek!
Numerous undead, including headless Dullahan and skeleton knights made of bones, crawled out endlessly and filled the surrounding area in an instant..
[Phew—I prepared quite a bit, but you guys don’t have the slightest chance..]
With a gloomy voice, Dwell appeared from the darkness for the last time and looked down on the warlocks..
As many as three executives participated in this event to ensure their thorough capture..
Oldman gritted his teeth with a grim expression at the overwhelming difference in power..
Death Knight Lord Karam and Banshee Queen Olivia, plus···.
“···Acrich is also added. For what reason?!”
For reference, Dwell had excellent abilities in handling undead armies and devising strategies, but due to his nature of not stepping forward, his name was not known..
[···This body is Dwell McCain, the Immortal King's faithful servant! Make sure to remember it clearly in the future!]
He was exasperated by the other person's reaction and shouted proudly, but it was meaningless as his name would not be spread widely through this incident..
Of course, there was not a single person who could escape this situation..
After a while.
Another small war that took place behind the scenes ended quietly without anyone noticing..
However, Olivia, who was cleaning up after the fight, had to move quickly before the work was finished.···.
[Girl, Olivia... I have come at the king's call.···.]
It was because the Immortal King Hans personally called her..
[Olivia, I picked up some interesting ones this time..]
Hans' gaze turned to the people hanging in the air, bound by black chains..
[These are the Oath of Reverse Heaven who tried to infiltrate Talaria this time. I took a quick look and it seemed like there was one at the executive level as well..]
The fact that the oath of Yeokcheon was there was evidence of their involvement behind the movements of the Eupersch Clan..
Even if they were a point organization, they would not be able to use units of this level as expendables..
‘Even if the order crossed several bridges, Olivia would be able to trace it..’
And if her backtracking and Clan Eupersch's interrogation results are combined, it was only a matter of time before they found out the location of those who planned this incident..
[Investigate these guys and find out where they are behind it..]
[I will follow your orders.···.]
Just like that, another job was given to the busiest person in the self-proclaimed Immortal Legion..
Olivia bows politely with a face that is not only pale but transparent..
It was also something to consider that he was too talented..
