Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

Chapter 18 Vampiric Blood Emperor Physique

-----

I have created the Vampiric Blood Emperor Physique, that was as of now, enhancing all my physical abilities and body functions.

This Physique requires a lot of fuel, and I have not near as enough.

Physiques can be engraved into the body through what I call Qi Runes, similar to Mana Runes, Qi Runes are like marks in your very body structure made out of Qi that permanently get stuck in your body, and make it slowly change and evolve.

I have remembered that the curse made my Qi and Aether recovery decrease, but that's the only place I've seen these elements being recognized in the book, has Lucifer purposely not added them? Hm…

The flow of crimson-red energy filled my muscles, bones, and even internal organs.

I've already designed the Vampiric Blood Emperor Physique to have many Tiers.

As of now, I can only use the Tier 1.

Tier 1: Muscle Reinforcement.

Although my other body parts are being reinforced, it is very faintly compared to the others, my muscles have been being reinforced the most in these few seconds.

And then it ended midway through.

Damn it, out of Qi already?

That only lasted a few seconds!

Agh…

How infuriating.

"I can't cultivate more, I need more Blood Qi… these corpses are now mummies. There's no more blood to take, let's go hunt some more until dawn." I said.

"I see, it seems you're devoted to it. But while you were cultivating, I took out these shiny orbs from the corpses." Said Eleanora.

"Oh?"

Eleanora showed me three shiny spherical orbs form the Wolves carcasses.

"Right, these are the Spirit Orbs… Hm. Maybe I could find a way to incorporate them into my Cultivation?" I wondered.

I touched one of them and then… something odd happened.

[Spirit Orb Detected]

[Spirit Orb is of equal Rank than user]

[Spirit Orb can be absorbed]

[Absorb?]

<Yes> <No>

Hm?!

The Book showed these words now.

I can absorb Spirit Orbs? Of course, I already had the powers to absorb energy from before, but in this life, they would cost gargantuan amounts of mana, which I don't have.

However, now… the Book can help me absorb spirit orbs?

Right away, I can see some interesting things.

First of all, it seems that it has to be of my same Rank to be absorbed.

Second, I can also reject it and keep it as a material…

"Eleanora, can you absorb this?" I asked.

"Let's see…" Eleanora touched the orb, but nothing happened.

"No, I cannot." She said.

"I see. Another power that can only work on me. Well, these Spirit Orbs can be sold for good money, I require money to stop being a villager and become a proper citizen, I've heard that you need a hundred gold coins. If I want more opportunities, becoming a citizen and moving over to the Duchy or the Kingdom's capital might bring more fortuitous encounters and opportunities to grow stronger…" I said.

"Hm, it is quite hard to decide… Maybe just absorb one to see how it goes?" she asked.

"You're right… Absorb."

FLASH!

The Spirit Orb on my palm suddenly turned into pure spiritual essence and flew into my body.

I suddenly realized my Mana was recovered by 6, and that I gained a bit of essence inside of my own spirit orb, enhancing its quality very slightly.

This means… I can both regenerate mana and nourish my Spirit Orb Cultivation by absorbing other Spirit Orbs of my same Rank? This is wonderful news…

They could be treated as lowkey mana potions as well, interesting! I will keep them in my pocket for now.

While waiting for my Qi to regenerate, we moved deeper into the forest, acting without hiding so any monster could jump at us and bring themselves to my plate.

After twenty minutes, four Wolves showed up out of nowhere. Is there a big pack sending groups around the entire area? Well, more blood qi for me, and EXP, I suppose.

Although I would need to kill around one hundred Wolves to get enough EXP for a level up. I can already see why this is a hard handicap… I doubt there are enough wolves around here, but I will make sure I can hunt anything I can find.

Also, if I can kill all the wolves around here, it would be for the better, so there won't be attacks on the villages or the hunters when they go looking for wild boars or grizzly bears.

"GROAR!"

The wolves jumped towards my defenseless little boy body.

Oh no, whatever will I do?

"Eleanora, take two yourself, I'll take the other two." I said.

"Understood!" said Eleanora, jumping to battle.

Meanwhile I concentrated my newfound power into my hands, gathering Qi into the tip of my fingers.

"Vampiric Blood Emperor Technique: Blood Claws."

FLASH!

My right hand suddenly was covered by blood essence, as three large claws emerged from it, metallic in appearance and luster, and sharp as blades.

This was an incredibly basic attack technique, which works as somewhat of a slashing weapon too. It is fairly cheap as well, can it last as long as you can keep it from shattering.

One of the wolves attacked me from my left side, as I twisted my body and slashed its face with my new claws, its eyes were easily pierced. The wolf cried in pain at this attack, wildly attacking me with his jaws.

"GRAAA!"

However, this was the perfect opening, against a mere wolf there is no point in evading, I can kill you right away!

SLASH!

I pierced the wolf's head using my Blood Claws, piercing it from the chin all the way up into the skull, leaving its head impaled into my claws.

Blood began gushing out right away, I instinctively licked my lips, infusing Qi into the corpse and then draining it of all its blood as I formed even more Blood Qi.

"GROAR!"

The other wolf attacked my back, its speed was abnormally fast as I noticed this one used mana, boosting its speed…!

CLASH!
