Chapter 195 (2/2)

As for pawns, he would brainwash the anization that he was about to take over, or train the them into Undead There was no need for Gozoroff and his lackeys

”King is always like this Do you find it strange?” asked Braga, ould be considered prey by human society, no different fro back on what she had learned regarding this world so far, Melissa shook her head ”It isn't strange at all, is it? I exter as an adventurer erous to try and transport thenore any pleas to surrender and just kill thehts did not exist Thus, the idea that even the huhts of criminals should be preserved, an idea that would be considered fundain, did not apply in Lambda at all

This was only to be expected, as crii and… Amemiya wouldn't be happy about it,” said Melissa ”They'd probably say so like, 'These rules should be kept in every world As people who have come from another world, we must hold a different perspective froe Masher' Asagi and Amemiya Hiroto had said words like these to their coin Vandalieu had never spoken to A about his

He had been like that when they ally captured and sold countless people They're the kind of people that there are rewards for killing, the kind that would be hanged or turned into criminal slaves if they were to be handed to the authorities As cri labor or as disposable soldiers, they could becoes' Guild, or as breeding stock for tamed monsters at the Tamers' Guild,” said Vandalieu

So then, ould they say that huhts would apply to these people? he wondered

”Isn't it because they wouldn't stand for you, a reincarnated individual like theoing to do with the people who got turned into slaves? Even if you wanted to have theeon youto be busy for a while?”

”I suppose it depends on what they want I owe the people I shared the carriage with in particular, and I did swear I wouldn't hara repeated ”You saved the?”

”I put theh a scary experience for the sake of s”

By drinking this red-black, poisonous-looking Potion while standing in the sunlight, they could conquer the sun and gain power

When they heard this, the Pure-breed Va would be iht wasn't fatal to Pure-breed Vampires like him, but it was a weakness that could not be overcome

No, to be precise, there were Pure-breed Vampires who had overcome it His brethren Zorcodrio, the one known as 'Zod' who possessed the toughest andthe day even after beco a Pure-breed Vampire

Zorcodrio had plowed fields, cultivated hills and worked in construction while being burned by the sun Thus, at soht Resistance Skill

Upon learning this, Erpel and the rest of the Pure-breed Vampires had atteh sunlight was not fatal to theht had been unpleasant, and they had been unable to acquire the skill even after enduring it for years

Despite that, Erpel was being told that the Sunlight Resistance Skill could be learned within several hours to several days, that it would take ten days at most It was unbelievable to hi for the first tiiven him a smile and a thumbs up

”Have some trust in me You may find it addictive,” Zorcodrio had said, and Vandalieu had recommended it as well

Thus, Erpel had decided to try it

As a result, he was now shouting at the top of his lungs, standing half-naked in broad daylight

”IT'S OVERFLOWIIIIING!” he exclaimed

With that, Erpel drank down the rest of the Blood Potion in his hand Gulping noises came from his white throat When he was done, he licked the drops that had dribbled froue

His pupils shone with a piercing light, and his white fangs grew thicker and longer If an ordinary person were to see hi and yet bewitchingly beautiful sight

Erpel laughed loudly ”I have done it! I have become an Abyssal Vampire… An Abyssal Pure-breed Va up endlessly within me! What do you think of my powerful, beautiful new forht be feuys Anyway, you look a little too young, and if I', I suppose?” said Miles Rouge, the noble-born Vaed sides to become Vandalieu's subordinate

”… I see,” Erpel said dejectedly, hanging his head limply

However, it was true that his appearance was not impactful no matter what kind of powerful pose he tried to take He had the appearance of a thin, pretty-looking boy in his h-pitched

”I am even treated like a child by Darcia, my niece-in-law… It is fine It suitsas he sat on the ground, crushi+ng a sertips

Meanwhile, Miles atching him calmly This was not how one would expect him to act towards a Pure-breed Vampire, which was equivalent to a God in the eyes of a noble-born Vampire

”… I don't think there are any feeble boys who can crush pebbles with just their fingers,” on loaded with s of Blood Potion

”Don't worry about it,” said Miles ”Erpel-saets full of himself, so it's best to be stricter with him”

”… Don't blaet angry at you,” said Eleanora

Eleanora and Miles, ere noble-born Va evil Gods But unlike them, the noble-born Va Grounds for a hundred thousand years, and they truly respected and ad the Pure-breed Vampires impolitely would certainly attract the noble-born Vaer

”I was told that by those very sa Grounds They told me that's what's best, since Erpel-sama is childish,” said Miles

Apparently the noble-born Va Grounds had experienced trouble with Erpel as well… though that ht have been a result of the affection between them due to their admiration of him

”Really? It's kind of… crazy to think that the Pure-breed Vampires are like ordinary people,” said Eleanora ”Not that I want them to act like Birkyne,” she added

”I kno you feel I'm just as surprised as you are, but… I definitely don't want the like Gubamon,” said Miles

Eleanora and Miles looked at the twenty or so half-naked Pure-breed Va smoke from their skin as they bathed in the sun Like Erpel, they were trying to become Abyssal Pure-breed Vampires

Approximately twenty Pure-breed Vampires, all of ere a hting force to destroy even the Adom unless there was some kind of miracle, like the descent of heroic spirits

They looked like a group of drunkards, however

”Hic! Oneburned hurts, and drinking Blood Potion feels so good I could get addicted to it!” another screa of the black-blooded e live the black-blooded e live our child!” cried a fourth

”I understand why you're confused But fro that the showy boy Birkyne, the bulging-eyed olddeveloped except her body went and becaan, a Pure-breed Vaan had already beco the re Blood Potion in his bottle

”In the past, even those guys were decent people It's not like they didn't have bad things about theer,” Dragan lamented

Birkyne, Gubaan and the other Pure-breed Vaside theh they had flaws even while they still worshi+pped Vida, they could have been considered virtuous, and certainly not evil

”Showy boy… Birkyne?” Eleanora -eyed old h,” said Miles

Neither of the about the Birkyne and Gubaht up in conversation Please go and hand out the Blood Potion,” said Bell with a strange Deht wearing a strange hele orb on the breastplate But upon closer inspection, it was very clearly bizarre

What appeared to be plate ar's smooth exoskeleton, and the orb on the breastplate was the Dee helmet was a transparent capsule; this was the only part that wasn't a fragrey flesh floating inside it was a countless nuether

There were also other fragments such as the eyeballs, blood, blubber and stomach, to ensure that it could operate for extended periods of tie at which the Group Control Skill, a superior version of the Long-distance Control Skill, could take effect Vandalieu was currently in the Orbau Familiars in Taloshei Fa Fa h stockpiled, but… I wonder if the ingredients we have in storage will be enough,” said the clone of Vandalieu that was operating the De a squishy sound as its headFas with the Alchemy Skill, but they could not provide Vandalieu's blood, which was a crucial ingredient, nor could they supply new death-attribute Mana

The only frag's treasure orb In addition to assisting the use and control of Mana like Zadiris's third eye, this organ was capable of generating new Mana

But with the real Vandalieu so far away, the efficiency of the Mana generation was lowered; it did have flaws However, by satisfying the conditions of having a brain and being able to create Mana, Vandalieu had succeeded inFamiliar a pseudo-main-body

He had not divided himself; it was merely a pseudo-main-body, so its memories and personality were those of Vandalieu To use Earth's coy as a comparison, it was as if he had installed a new base station for communication

”Luciliano and the Deredients should be enough Ah, but if it's not enough, we ht be able to see the real Vandalieu-saht despite her honest report

”… I understand how you feel, but please ensure that you do not hand out more Blood Potion than necessary,” Bello and distribute the Potion”

”Hmph, I knoouldn't waste Vandalieu-sanantly before pushi+ng her wagon in the direction of the Pure-breed Va a refill

She did see Faazeher way

”How does everyone see the De Familiar murmured, curious about Eleanora's behavior

TheFamiliars were all Vandalieu's mind They were not separate personalities, avatars of a countless number of personas, or artificially-created personalities They were all Vandalieu

The parasite-type De Familiar that had controlled Girabat's body in the distant Orbau aro, Borkus and the others, the pseudo- Familiar here - without exception, all of them were Vandalieu

”Eleanora and I do understand that all of them are you, but we feel more attraction towards the real you You would also prefer to be touched by the real Darcisama and… Eleanora, do you not, Dannsama?” said Bell Fareement

”And the reason you didn't mention yourself in that question is because that's just how your personality is, isn't it?” said Miles, interrupting the conversation

”Indeed Ternecia always had a good body since she was a human, but she never had any sex appeal or charht have had a story or two to tell before becole innocent, cluan

”That is an unnecessary concern,” said Bellan-sama, if you have becoet dressed”

”Co to be useful for gathering intelligence, but Eleanora should be of use as well Running a crih,” said Miles, proaze

He had been one of the higher-ranked ained attention froence-gathering, rather than his ability in coe' was one of the na to reorganize his organization

”We're still following the threads and pruning the roots and branches that aren't needed, after all,” Miles said

They were taking over a crianization, but there was no need to make a profit from their crimes afterwards Vandalieu would provide all of the funds that the organization needed to maintain itself, after all

And so, there was no way to put the knowledge of Miles and the others to use while Vandalieu was still in the process of following trails and disposing of people like the 'Hyena' Gozoroff

”Also, I'd like you to keep taking care of the Pure-breed Va Familiar

”… So that's your real intention Seriously, if the noble-born Va Grounds didn't all collapse, all we'd have had to do was explain things,” said Miles

The noble-born Vaan and the still-dejected Erpel, but all of they state

They had tried to become Abyssal Vampires before the Pure-breed Va unable to withstand the pain of being burned by the sun

”Well, I also had subordinates who took months to find success, so it can't be helped,” said Miles

”Sorry about that We're called Pure-breed Vampires and noble-born Vampires, but we're far weaker than those outside the Boundary Mountain Range think we are,” said Erpel, see to say that we're far weaker, but it's true that we aren't strong After all, the war against the De was already over by the tiht to the death against eneainst those bastards Alda and Bellwood,” said Dragan ”After that, we spent our ti the barrier, while keeping the population of monsters far weaker than ourselves under control occasionally… every few hundred or every few thousand years We couldn't help our senses being dulled and our techniques getting rusty”

The inside of the Boundary Mountain Range had been peaceful froo until recently And even the eon Boss being Rank 12 There had been no threats that required the Pure-breed Vaht theed inindividuals like Godwin, but it was difficult to say that they'd had enough tian says Well, we did invent new spells in Vidsama's Divine Realm, and the noble-born Vaeons,” said Erpel ”That's how it is, so Vandalieu, Miles, Bellgest You'll be disappointed!”

”I ,” said the pseudo- Familiar

”But I really want to shut Alda's lot up, so I'll do my best! If it becomes an all-out battle, count on me!” said Erpel

”… So should I count on you or not?”

”While you're at it, why don't you have a look and pick a wo in pain over there is Giselle Even before the war against the De the human men because she was one of thea Dwarf, she hasonto Eleanorjouchan is Fedilica She was originally an Elf, and she's a smart one who can do paperhen she's sober Well, her flaw is that she's al Bortunoba…neesan?! Don't you feel sorry for her?!” said Erpel

”No, I'd feel orilla if I actually recommended her She doesn't fit the description of 'toan

”I can hear you, you bastards! Don't go ues out?!” shouted a Pure-breed Vare

She ran towards Dragan and Erpel with so and returned to where she had been standing

A short while later, Dragan and Erpel began writhing in agony, blood spraying froues really had been torn out Fedilica burst into laughter at the sight of this, and Eleanora used this opportunity to row back pretty quickly, she really has no mercy,” Miles re to introduce women to Dannsama? This should not be necessary for the Pure-breed Vampires,” said Bellmond

”I am sure that half their intent is to poke fun at me Or it could be so Grounds, they were apparently asked to attend ceres and engage Familiar

They were already acquainted with Darcia, and Vandalieu figured that if the Pure-breed Vampires were serious, they would have approached her about it Since they hadn't, he assumed that they weren't serious

Darcia was currently visiting the Dark Continent to perforion, Kanako, Zadiris and Zandia

”Ah,” the pseudo- Familiar suddenly murmured

”What is the matter?” Bellmond asked

”No, it's just that Luciliano dropped soround workshop… and the small animals born in experiments flooded in to lick the spilled contents up, and it seems that they've all beco Fa Fa

Miles and Bellmond's faces stiffened

”By 's born between living subjects and Undead subjects transplanted with Life Gold and Spirit Silver, don't you? If I recall, there were over four hundred of them,” said Bellmond

”… That's troublesome, isn't it Is that h they've transformed into monsters, they're not that powerful, and it seeht,” the pseudo- Fa Familiar”

”Attached?” Miles and Bellmond repeated si Fa Faround workshop was co Rats and Horned Rabbits

”Yes, attached,” it said

《You have acquired the 'Black Blood Eon Emperor' titles!》

”… I understand that people here were shouting 'Black Blood E happened on the Dark Continent”
