My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

Chapter 235

#235

Karma Shopping (3)

A mountain village located a little away from the capital of the Zephyr Republic.

As the main religion is the largest religion on the continent, prayer centers were set up for residents even in small towns like this.

Of course, it was so poor that there was only one trainee priest who had been sent to train and two monks from the village, but no one in the village looked down on this place.

No matter how weak their divine power was at the level of an apprentice priest, they were able to provide first aid sufficiently, and thanks to that, they were in a position to receive the benefits at any time.

Putting faith aside, there was no way anyone would dislike it since it was actually helpful in everyday life.

But now, here, inside the prayer hall, which should be more sacred than any other place—.

The secret meetings of completely ungodly people who did not have any religious beliefs were continuing without permission.

“How do you feel about receiving His grace, Obaipo? “If you are a vampire, your suitability would be quite excellent.”

“Hehe, really… it’s not that bad… I thought they were going to pull some kind of trick when they suddenly came to see me…”

“I’m sorry. Still, I thought we had built up some trust after hanging out for quite some time.”

A conversation between ungodly people going back and forth inside a prayer hall with the symbols of the main denomination engraved here and there.

Ohbaipo, the Lord of the Ovaipo Clan who settled in the East, a vampire with holy blood…

“You were the one who betrayed that trust first, revolutionary…. You said you were not responsible for the deaths of the Enamel Jester and the Southern Barbarian King. “Wouldn’t it be…?”

“I’m sorry about that. “Something urgent came up, so I had no choice but to cut off contact.”

He was a revolutionary and the founder of the Pledge to Reverse Heaven, the biggest culprit that caused the world to fall into such chaos.

“That’s why you came here to help even now. “If you have that power, you won’t be defeated as easily as others.”

“Hehehe… I already ruled out the commander-in-chief of Zefia, who would have been the biggest obstacle anyway… I wanted to make him one of my subjects, but it wasn’t easy to subdue a warrior who had reached transcendence… It’s a shame. ….”

A shocking story of how even the so-called strongest man of the Republic fell.

Another difficulty was that the warrior had already tolerated the vampires’ rule over the Kingdom of Thalia, so it would not be easy for him to intervene in the secret situation within the Republic.

In addition, the public’s attention was divided by the series of incidents that occurred in various places, creating a situation that was favorable to Obyepo in many ways.

“Can we leave the vice president alone? In fact, that person must be the leader of the opposition.”

“Hmm, you mean that girl…? Now that she has outlived her usefulness, I was thinking of disposing of them as soon as possible…. Since all of her hands and feet were cut off anyway, there would be nothing I could do….” The reason

she left behind, as she had great hostility towards vampires in the first place, was because of those who were against them. It was to make it easier to obtain information about the issue.

She had been making various arrangements for him for a long time.

“It’s quite relaxing. “I also know that she has already been in contact with the hybrids in the west.”

“Hehe, you mean the self-proclaimed vampire king…? It’s funny… that a guy who knows nothing about the origins of blood is the king and whines…”

Of course, he had already figured out the movements of the Vice President and the Hybrid.

However, he had a sense of trust, and even now that the situation was moving quickly and a collision was imminent, he was not worried about it at all.

“No matter what power he has… As long as the blood of a vampire flows through his body, he cannot defeat me, who has obtained the power closest to the original source… In fact, I want to praise him for doing the troublesome work for me. “Kun…”

Instead of showing concern, he just looks excited.

He was truly hoping that the King of Hybrids would come.

The moment I subdue him, that will be the day I get my hands on all the vampires on the continent.

“Now, if only the essence of Brokoslag and Eupersch can be obtained… all the blood vessels of origin that have been lost so far will be gathered together… Only then will this world face the true vampire king…!”

Obaipo has brought together the legacies of the ‘bloodline of the beginning’ that were cut off and could not be passed on to future generations for a long time.

He was ecstatic as he dreamed of completing a perfect blood vessel and reigning over it.

He had no idea that not only the two bloodlines he was targeting, but also everyone who came under the Hybrid’s command had long ago lost their purity and been contaminated by vampire factors from other dimensions.

I crossed my arms and glared at the numbers representing the price of the product.

“Hmm.”

Compared to the overwhelming number of 30 million, it was only a 1% change of 300,000.

Since it was my first time actually seeing the numbers change, I couldn’t help but become interested.

‘what? What is that all of a sudden…. Did any of your subordinates get any clues related to that?’

In fact, I was guessing that the pricing was based on the value of the item and the difficulty of obtaining it, but of course, that wasn’t 100% certain.

However, looking at the price situation of other general items, it is also true that this is the most reliable inference.

So, it was natural for me to feel that something had brought me closer to ‘that’.

‘Then, if we can figure out what the cause is, we can find out what it is. Then, first check to see if any relevant information has been obtained….’

But I was analyzing the situation so quickly.

As soon as my thoughts turned to what I had to do next, I realized that it was not as easy as it sounds.

‘If only I had a window where I could get information right now…’

A ghost intelligence unit scattered across the continent under the control of Olivia, the head of information for the immortal army.

Hybrid vampires and dark organizations that have permeated the darkness of the world.

The main religious organization’s information analysis team exerts influence throughout the continent and collects and provides necessary information.

Informants of the Hubert Chamber of Commerce, organized to collect information related to commercial transactions and track the flow of goods.

‘It’s not just that. There are also ways to obtain information indirectly.’

Harley in the south and Harris on the Enamel Continent were in some way inseparable from what happened in their respective territories, and the influence of Hesperon, who was favored by the princess, could not be ignored.

In fact, everyone except Howard, who stays in his room and bangs a hammer, is a great source of information.

‘…The amount of information collected from all over at every moment is overwhelming, but there is no way I can pinpoint something related to something whose identity I don’t know.’

I was lost in thought for a moment, then shook my head and cleared away my worries.

To be honest, it was true that I was interested in that, but it was a waste of my energy to focus more on something that could not be concluded no matter what.

‘Anyway, 1 percent won’t be that big of a change.’

Whatever it is, if you look at the numbers, isn’t it still very far away?

If something decisive changes, we will know one way or another.

What was important to me right now was not such a vague issue.

Gulp Gulp—

I turned my gaze and looked down at the child wearing a large t-shirt like a dress over his bare body, holding a glass bottle with two cute hands and drinking the elixir.

“Kyaha—!”

The little boy took his mouth off the bottle he had just finished drinking and let out a cool sigh.

Next, he made a hand gesture of rubbing his mouth with his palm while tasting the salty taste.

Every action he made was so fatally cute.

‘As my body gets younger, does my behavior also get affected?’

Or maybe it was just normal behavior and I felt that way for no reason because of its appearance.

Of course, either way, there was no need to worry about it now.

The avatar’s personality is unique. It didn’t happen for a day or two.

‘In any case, Outerica is more efficient than Earth for rapid growth. However, it is not possible to just send Horus, who is in child form, anywhere alone. There should be a guardian, even if only in name.’

While he was lost in thought, Hugo quietly opened the door and came in. He approached Horus and began to dress him in the children’s clothes from another world that had been delivered to him through “Avatar Cloud.”

It was clothes that Hubert, who was in charge of chores and supplies, had prepared and sent in a hurry.

‘…Yeah, I guess that would be the best.’

And after looking at it and thinking about it, I was able to determine Horus’s destination.

A person who is not too big, so people around him pay less attention to him, but it is not strange even if he brings a child with all kinds of excuses.

‘Tarak where Hubert Company is located.’

It was a moment when not only chores and supplies but also childcare were added to Hubert’s tasks.

***

“Drakalion is looking at you.”

This was the phrase that appeared before Horus’ eyes right after he crossed over to this world.

‘Is he the dragon god?’

Since I only saw it once or twice, it was almost like an annual event with nothing new to see.

‘Now, I actually feel like it’s a shame if there isn’t this kind of interest.’

Although it is limited to another world, it is a life that receives the attention of the gods.

Of course, there was nothing to complain about as I was receiving sufficient support along with a lot of interest.

I’ll watch you like that and if I decide I like something, I’ll give you a little gift.

“Hmph—pa—!”

Horus took a deep breath and smiled in satisfaction.

‘Anyway, it’s definitely different now that I’m in a world with mana.’

Unlike the Earth, which was a wasteland of supernatural abilities and could not feel any energy, the mana that was abundant here was quickly flowing into Dragonheart just by breathing, making him stronger.

Indeed, the growth correction and expensive elixir are working at a speed that is surprising even to the person involved.

‘On Earth, only the recovery of lost energy is possible, and it does not lead to growth.’

So, although the awakened person who returned to Earth could improve his skills by mastering the technology, his own capabilities could not increase.

In fact, the person’s limitations are set from the moment he or she returns.

‘That problem has nothing to do with me…’

Also, he already had several powerful avatars, but they were still a bit lacking.

A more overwhelming force was needed, stronger than before.

In order to bring down that angel at that time… the Beoncheonhoeju bastard.

And the most anticipated prospect of late is this little dragon.

It was Horus, clenching his chubby hands and strengthening his resolve.

‘Of course, it’s not the stage to do anything directly right now. First, you need to take some time to get used to the dragon’s body and abilities.’

This place where he took his first steps in another world was Hubert’s personal residence.

Most of the food, clothing and shelter needs were taken care of by hired people, so it was an optimal environment where you could focus on what you wanted without having to do anything in particular.

‘Okay then, let’s begin.’

And Horus lay down on the bed in the dormitory for full-scale training.

“Huh—ha—.”

Followed by deep breathing and meditation.

He contemplated his body carefully.

He did that for a while in human form, then “polymorphed” again as a dragon and repeated the same thing.

If you look at it from a little distance, you might wonder what that thing is doing, but Horus was carrying out his routine quite seriously.

Also known as Operation Waryong.

A baby dragon trapped in a luxury home curled up, dreaming of the day when it could soar.

***

Outerica somewhere.

In a small cave where all kinds of physical and magical concealment measures had been taken so that not a single ray of light could enter.

Rumbling—

With a loud tossing and turning that broke hundreds of years of silence, a pair of eye lights slowly burned out of the darkness.

The being that was quietly blinking its eyes and looking around as if examining the situation tilted its head for a moment…

[Hmm? This is…]

It soon felt something and let out a soft exclamation.

Suddenly, the presence of a compatriot so unfamiliar that it is hard to tell where it came from—.

[…Drakarion.]

It was so young that it was questionable how it was born at this time, and by their standards, it had the energy of a newborn baby.

But once he sensed it, he could no longer remain still.

[As you wish.]

We were one step away from the situation on the continent that was becoming a mess.

It happened in a cave on a deserted island.
