Picking up Girls With My System

Chapter 381 Turning The Avatar Into A Vampire

"The shop guards will take him down; just wait and see," one of the people in the line said.

It was not the first time someone tried to cut the line and enter the shop, but they would get expelled and become a public joke every time.

Some of the hired guards approached him and said, "you cannot skip the line and enter. Please, come back!"

Arthur looked at them and said, "I own this shop. If you still want your job, then shut up."

"W-What?"

No one had talked to them like that, and before they tried anything stupid with Arthur, Wisa came to see what the fuzz was about, and then she saw her husband!

"Guards, stop. He owns this shop!" Wisa said.

When she was the person saying that, then it must be true! The guards thought about what would happen if Wisa had not intervened to save them…

"This is looking good, Wisa. A row of people wanting to buy potions, and we even have people protecting the store," Arthur said as he hugged Wisa, and the two looked around the shop right after.

The shop was not empty, and the people there now knew who the mysterious owner of the Frostpeak Potion Shop was, and they could not believe he was so young.

"Are you the owner of this shop? I must say this place is the best in the city and probably one of the best in the entire continent!" A young lady said.

"Thank you," Arthur said, nodding his head and smiling.

It was nice to hear these things, but he knew the shop's success was because of his wives and not him.

After he left, with the help of the two people Arthur hired and his avatar, Jane and Wisa turned the Frostpeak Potion Shop from nothing to the best place in Rolmuth!

Why did the mages prefer his place over the others? Well, it was the place with the highest quality potions, and everyone knew that after experimenting with one of his potions.

"How are the two I hired? Doing well?"

"Yes, they are! Well, we did increase their payment with how many clients we are getting, but they did not complain about it, so that's good."

"Good. If things keep going like this, we must hire one or two more to sell to everyone in the shop and let the deliveries with Alessia and Jannet."

Arthur knew he and his wives would not stay forever in that city, as they had many things to do. He had one problem now; who will continue to make the potions?

The avatar he made was down in the basement as they spoke, crafting potions like a madman, and their stock of potions was so huge it could make the shop last for four months without composing a single brew!

But what would happen after these months passed? Arthur had to give his avatar new powers, turn it into a vampire, and rescue Sybille.

"Husband, we can close the shop after we run out of options."

"What? Wouldn't that hurt our reputation?"

"Not at all. It is normal for shops to close sometimes for vacation, which could last a whole year. But we have an advantage: the winter! When we run out of potions, winter will come, and all the potion shops close because few ingredients can be harvested in the winter, you know, with snow covering every piece of land."

"Really? Our luck is just getting better."

Jane was selling some potions to the customers, so she could not participate in the conversation, so the three waited for night to speak after they closed the shop.

Down in the basement were four people: Arthur, Jane, Wisa, and Arthur the 2nd.

"So you went to a mountain with dragons, and you have an alliance with them?"

"Yes, correct. If they ruled the demon continent, it would be better for us, and the war with the central continent will not happen."

"You do have a point. You are their master so they will obey you, but what is up with this, Cult of the Dragon?"

"Oh, right. Well, it seems there is a meditation technique, and the more my followers use it, the stronger I get, and some of my power will go to them too."

"That's dope."

They talked about many things, but their real goal was to finish the avatar and send it to the vampire territory.

"I can give it the Blood Essence and the other part of the inheritance without problems, but to turn it into a vampire… I need Shyvana's help, but how can we find her?"

Arthur needed to turn the avatar into an actual vampire, and for that, he needed to find a vampire to turn it, but of course, it could not be someone random, and it had to be a powerful vampire and someone he trusted; thus Shyvana was the only option.

But where could he find her? It would be an impossible task, considering the continent was immense, but then Jane said, "would you believe it if I told you Shyvana is here, in the capital?"

"What? Why?"

"She came to see us, but mainly to become an adventurer, and the guild's main headquarters is here. She wants to find ways to increase her power, and traveling around the continent seems like a good idea."

"So that's the case! Can you two invite her to our house?"

"No problem, husband."

Jane and Wisa left the shop and went looking for Shyvana. As for Arthur, he remained there to give the avatar the inheritance and the Blood Essence.

It was not hard to do it, and all he needed was to touch the avatar on the forehead. It hurt a little bit, but nothing harmed any of them.

Now his avatar had the Blood Essence, all the knowledge required to contain the madness, and all the techniques from the Blood Monarch.

After doing all he needed, Arthur and his avatar left the shop, closing it up and returning to the house he rented long ago.

When he got there, Shyvana was already there, and when she saw an elf with them, she could not believe that elf was Arthur!

"You plan on going into the vampire territory as an elf? You can stay there, but if you want to infiltrate their castle and join their ranks, you must be a human vampire. Look, all you need to do is change the pointed ears, and that's it," Shyvana said when she saw the elf.

Arthur's and his avatar's features did not differ much, but it was enough so no one could recognize them.

That was one of the reasons he made it an elf, to make it even harder for enemies to spot him, but it seemed vampires weren't a fan of elves.

"Really? Well, good thing this avatar spell is incredible. I can change the appearance of the avatar as many times as I want."

Shyvana then smiled and said, "it is good to see you. All of you! Arthur, I know you are going there to rescue Sybille, but you must promise you will share all the information you get, and when the time of our revenge comes, you will let me go with you."

Arthur could understand her frustration. Her family and friends were dead, and she wanted to get stronger for her revenge. If Arthur had the means to help her, he would do it, no matter what.

"I will don't worry."

"Thanks. So, you want me to turn your avatar into a vampire? Let's do it, as I have to leave in one hour," Shyvana said, showing her token of the Adventurers Guild.

"Busy, aren't you? Fine, let me change the pointed ears real quick."

~~~~

The process of turning someone into a vampire was relatively simple. Shyvana fed Arthur's avatar with her blood, and then the avatar had to feed on blood to complete the transition.

"Now, there's some important information. We usually drank the blood of humans, and if you feed from someone powerful in your transition, it can unlock your greater abilities. My father got me a rank two mage."

Arthur heard that and had an idea which should work.

"Does it need to kill it?"

"No. Just a drop of blood is enough, and getting more does not seem to increase the bonuses of the first feed."

"I see."

The idea he had was to feed his avatar with his blood! He was still considered a human and a powerful one.

Also, the only thing the avatar did not have was bloodlines, so giving his blood could grant the avatar some special abilities.

"Let's try this."

Arthur grabbed a knife and a cup, filling it with blood.

"Doesn't the avatar already has your blood?" Shyvana asked.

She was right about that, but the idea was to grant the avatar the blood of dragons and giants, and that was way better than anything the vampires could wish for.

The avatar picked up the cup of blood, drank it, and then a pleasing sensation filled his body as his eyes turned red for a split second and then returned to green again.

Arthur could feel the avatar's body getting stronger and his affinity with the blood increasing even more, but it was still weak as it had never practiced anything.

"If your blood grants you special abilities, then it will not happen immediately, so don't worry about it."

After Shyvana made sure everything was okay with the avatar, she said goodbyes to everyone and left. Now, it was time for both Arthurs to go on their journey.

One, a dragon seeking to increase its power to rank four, and get as many followers as possible, as that was his army.

A vampire who wished to join the vampire family that took his wife and rescued her.
