My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness

Chapter 242

Vampire Rise (2)

It was too cloudy and disordered to be considered a mental world that constitutes a single being.

‘What the hell is this…’

In one place, dark red rain was pouring down like a shower, in another place, puddles of blood were swirling, and right next to it was a dry desert.

A world where the fragments of a fragmented world seem to have been forced together and mixed up here and there.

-How can I prey on my own people…. My secret wish for strength…

-I don’t want to die… How long should I hide…

-Research… I have to research… The power of the Buncheonhoe!

In addition, fragments of unknown thoughts flowing through the entire space were swirling like a storm and disturbing my mind.

[Pfft, what the…!]

Just by being exposed to this hostile environment, the soul that had been solidified over 10,000 years and the ego that had been established with a thousand years of memories were rapidly eroding.

[…Could it be that these are all thoughts of predation on one’s own kind? How many people did they prey on…! Or rather, how was he able to think clearly even though his mental world was so polluted…?]

He hurriedly wrapped his karma, which had grown enormously over many years, like armor, and muttered softly, protecting his ego as much as possible.

When I first encountered the poison-like blood, I thought it was because of the unknown bloodline in his body, but I did not expect that his mental world would actually be like this.

It was hard to think that way because the person involved, Heinz, was acting very well.

[Ho-oh, is this really the vampire from the beginning? It must be a fairly harsh environment, but it seems to be quite bearable.]

While he was struggling to understand the situation.

A familiar voice echoed through the storm filled with confusion.

Heinz was the master of this crazy world and his target.

[Sorry about this. Because the visit was so sudden, I couldn’t clean it. It was also the first time a customer came to visit. Well, actually, it was such a mess that I had completely given up.]

A word of mocking laughter.

Obaipo frowned and looked around.

But Heinz was nowhere to be seen in this twisted and mixed world.

‘It looks like you have no intention of going out in person… Is this a trap set up to deal with intruders…?’

As expected, no matter how much one thought about it, there was no way that the head of a force that had reached the Holy Blood could have such an insane mental state.

I’m sure there’s a safe area somewhere where my sanity is stored.

‘Of course, that alone is impressive enough…’

He slowly raised his mental power and curled the corners of his mouth.

‘I guess I’m believing in this trap now…’

The mental world was a world that flowed by the power of will and thought, not the laws of physics.

If you wander around blindly looking for a path, you will only be playing along with the other person’s intentions.

[You looked at me too funny, Heinz…!]

But he was no ordinary being either.

Obaipo concentrated his mind as much as possible on one point and mobilized the unknown power within his soul and took a big step forward.

With the intention of going to the place where Heinz, the master of this world, is.

Sigh—

the surrounding scenery changed in an instant, as if it were a magic trick.

‘Let’s finish this quickly…’

He raised his head in triumph, thinking that he had gotten his way.

I finally faced it.

[…under? What is that again…?]

A huge castle wall that rises as if it crosses the world.

The inviolable sanctuary “Soul Firewall” was created as a result of the contamination caused by the Immortal King Hans.

‘Damn, is he hiding in there…?’

Mountain after mountain.

I couldn’t breathe due to the overwhelming majesty that I could feel even at first glance and the distant sense of intimidation that seemed like I could never break through no matter what I did.

Moreover, even at this very moment, the erosion that was trying to swallow him up was continuing, so he couldn’t just stand still like this.

[I can’t believe you came all this way in one go. It’s truly amazing that he can use his power so skillfully even though it’s not his mental world. But that power just now…]

Heinz’s words began to echo again, but Obaipo, who was running out of time, ignored him, raised all his capabilities, and crashed into the castle gate.

This time too, he pushed the power he received from the revolutionaries to its limit.

[…is it the power of the abyss? No, it’s something different. I don’t think it’s an issue that can be easily overlooked. But how do you have such power?]

However, no matter how many times it was hit, the gate showed no sign of being breached.

Heinz, too, seemed to be sure that the barrier would not collapse, but he continued to show interest in other things.

And that attitude was enough to scratch the insides of Obaipo, who had been ignored ever since he was on the outside.

[Hehe, it’s been so noisy since a while ago…! If you’re curious, why not find out for yourself? If you stay inside like a coward, you won’t be able to achieve anything!]

In addition to those feelings, he was irritated because he couldn’t find an answer no matter how much he pounded, so he said it sarcastically.

What came back was a completely unexpected reaction.

[…I guess what you say makes sense. I think we need a more in-depth conversation.]

[What…?]

As soon as those words come to an end.

The entrance to the iron fortress, which had not responded in any way no matter how many times he pounded on it, began to shake little by little, and then slowly began to open as if welcoming him from the outside.

It was an opening that was so vain that all the hard work we had done so far was in vain.

[Let me invite you. Please come in and see.]

What follows is a very meaningful provocation.

[If you are confident that you will not regret it.]

It was an arrogant declaration made by opening wide the gate that protected oneself, but Obaipo didn’t care and confidently entered inside as if he had been waiting.

After all, he had come here for that purpose from the beginning, and there were no other possibilities left for him.

‘To be stupid… you will regret it…!’

And above all, he had the confidence that he would never lose.

‘He doesn’t know that I can draw on the power of other blood vessels even in the spirit world.’

The essences of the Precious Blood that he had fused into the heart with his own abilities.

If the power of authority received from a revolutionary is unleashed all at once, something that has been saved without being used on purpose for a decisive moment…

‘Even if it is temporary, the output will increase ten times.’

Even if this was a mental world that was advantageous to Heinz, there was no way he could have overturned that much of a difference in output with his own strength.

Even if you give in a hundred steps and he takes four or five times as much, the result is the same.

The situation will be over before he can think of another response.

Obaipo, with such insidious intentions, confidently entered the open barrier and—.

[You have arrived.]

There, I was able to face Heinz’s human form, shining red, which I had longed to see.

However, what he did not expect…

[…what is this…?]

was that Heinz was not the only one waiting in the secret part of the mental world.

[Hehehe— What an amazing guy. [It’s wearing strange things.]

A pitch-black giant that seems to have gathered together all the negativity in the world, looking at us with black eyes that seem to see through everything.

[That power. I’m very worried. As expected, the revolutionary guy seems to have done something?]

On the contrary, he is a pure white saint who is surrounded by brilliant radiance and blessings and spreads bright light around him, as if he is loved by God.

[Wow, I’m strangely hungry even though I don’t have a body. What would happen if I caught it in this condition and ate it? Are you feeling hungry?]

[Ah… I can definitely sense a strange energy from the author…]

In addition, there is a madman who seems to be made of dark red flames of madness and a green figure who looks relaxed as if embracing warm sunlight… Before I knew it ,

nearly ten people were surrounding Obaipo who had entered the castle.

‘When will we get support from outside…! No wait. Isn’t it? ‘Everyone is the master of this mental world?’

Having lived for a long time and becoming well-versed in magic and the spiritual world, the moment he saw them, he realized that the current situation was going very strangely.

Never in a way that is good for you.

‘Multiple personality…? No, simply no other personality could have been of this caliber! And aren’t their tendencies and levels all on a different level? There is a warlock who feels like an immortal king, and there is also a person who looks like an adult high elf who looks like a saint. … Plus, is that a dragon…?’

In the gap between them was a golden creature with a silhouette that was clearly different from the other humanoids.

A powerful and endangered creature that even he himself has not seen in nearly 300 years.

‘As expected, the most likely case is that the souls of heroes summoned through necromancy were sealed within the body using some kind of Great Law…’

In any case, one thing was certain.

That you are in a very shitty situation right now.

A secret weapon? Granted powers? That meant nothing now.

‘…doggish.’

Cold sweat ran down Obaipo’s back.

It may be because of my mood, since there is no way for the spiritual body of this spirit world to have physiological phenomena.

[Hehehe— I was just making little progress in research. I never thought I’d get additional clues to the abyss here! Now that I think about it, this guy was also from the oath of Yeokcheon, right? I think this will be a good clue in many ways.]

A creepy voice that makes you shiver just by hearing it.

I glanced back without realizing it, but the door he came through was already closed, as if it had never been opened in the first place.

[Don’t worry. All you need is a little cooperation. I happen to have some good stuff! It doesn’t hurt that much. Oh, to be more precise…]

Led by a black figure approaching with a bead in his hand.

Unusual-looking spirits that seemed too difficult to deal with began to slowly flock in.

and-.

[…You won’t even be able to feel pain. Hahaha!]

Just.

That was the end.

***

“Hmm.”

Heinz II slowly opened his eyes and looked at the stiff old vampire Obaipo in front of him.

In the mental world, a much longer time had passed than expected, but in reality, not that long had passed.

She slowly raised her hand and removed his outstretched hand from her forehead.

He just moved along helplessly, as if he were a mannequin.

‘Even if he surrendered, I had no intention of accepting him as a subordinate.’

O Baipo was a conniving man who had been with the oath of Yeokcheon for a long time and was plotting in secret.

He was the exact opposite of Bricky, who was easy-going about everything, and he was also excellent at magic, so even if he subordinated him, he would continue to feel uncomfortable.

“They say the loser gives everything to the winner.”

Fuuk—

Without hesitation, Heinz’s hand dug into Obaipo’s heart, which was almost like an empty shell.

Unlike his disintegrating body, his throbbing heart was caught in his hands.

“This is a very satisfactory tribute. “I will gladly accept it.”

As soon as those words were finished, Heinz grabbed his heart and burst it out.

At the same time, along with Obaipo’s blood, nine pieces of vital blood that seemed to have been transplanted by some kind of means were neatly sucked into his hand.

‘Hmm, it wouldn’t be that bad as an energy source.’

Since most of the continent’s vampires came under his command anyway, there was nothing special about having more blood, other than the energy tank growing.

As I said before, no matter how much you gather, it is only one of the many branches of vampires, and above all, it has “Mixed-Blood Evolution,” which is a higher level of compatibility.

‘That’s not what’s important right now.’

No, of course it is important.

There was another more important issue now.

This is the change that occurred as he absorbed everything about Obaipo.

He felt the steam coming out of his heated body and adjusted his physical condition. Then, he saw the notification window that suddenly appeared in front of him and slowly raised the corners of his mouth.

?Achievement achieved! He became the ‘Vampire King’, a vampire lord who unified the divided and feuding races.?

?I gained control over most of the vampires that exist in the dimension of Outerica. As a reward, the special privilege “Monarch’s Power” is granted.?

?You have achieved an achievement and had a great impact on the world. Your karma will increase further.? He used to

be a human, but suddenly becomes a vampire with residual blood, the lowest level, and eventually becomes a vampire with the highest level of holy blood. Heinz II rose to the top.

It was the moment when I finally became the king who truly ruled a race.
