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

Chapter 181 A Week After

-----

(Blake's POV)

It has been a week since Cassandra's death. Her corpse was maintained by my magic and put inside my Inventory Bag, which I had modified with Space Magic Runes to create a large internal dimension to store things. This dimension keeps most things from rotting as well. If I could share this magic and show how easy I could do it, I could be able to make a fortune, but that would bring too much attention, these type of bags are very rare and considered treasures, only high-ranked adventurers or nobles have them after all.

I might begin selling them sparingly if I ever open a shop with enough backing to not get persecuted by authorities over it. I may sound cowardly but being overly cautious with things like these is never wrong. For now I will continue making money on my own ways.

p Although the current me can only conjure Tier 1 Space and Time Attribute Spells, which are no more than a handful, it seems its enough to pass produce these bags… Magic like this is very rare even for nobles who often are gifted with stronger Talents and more powerful Spirits.

Nonetheless, I am still thinking about what I can do with Cassandra's corpse. I had thought about dismantling her and using her for demon energy potions to stack a bit on them, so I can always refill demonic energy to use my Demon Eye of Paralysis more often, as it consumes a lot of energy. I had also thought about using her body parts for other things, such as crafting items and tools, or even modify my own body with her own body parts, but they seemed not compatible.

Her eyes were not special so I didn't had the incentive to put one of her eyes into my last human eye, and to be honest it would be too risky to attempt to implant a whole arm, or even the demon core she had… which brings a new question too. The Spirit Core she has… she somehow managed to mutate it into what I'll call an "hybrid core".

In simple terms, she used her powers and rituals with demonic energy to modify her core and give it demonic properties, this completely changed her original spirit into the big demon she was able to summon, it was impressive. If I could use this magic to my own benefit or spread it with a large army of people, everybody could get powerful spirits without even needing to be born talented or have enough resources to buy monster parts to create a spirit with them after reaching Rank 2.

But… I can see why the church doesn't want that to happen, this magic that uses demon materials is way too powerful and convenient, if it becomes widespread and accepted for people to gain power using demon parts, the status quo of nobles being the naturally stronger people compared to commoners would be broken. Although it comes with side effects, I could easily perfectionate this technique and bring it with barely any side effect, and after trying enough, perhaps without any at all.

I better keep this a secret… I also got a lot of the books she possessed, which I stealthily stole from the scene and stored into my bag. I had been reading them for a while, learning about Cassandra's past was rather intriguing, she went through a lot. But I was unable to find much info regarding the strange and powerful Cult behind her. It seems that the investigation regarding that still is ongoing.

So, anyways, for the moment, I will just leave her corpse in the bag and see what I can do with it, I have been studying her spirit core and I had considered modifying mine, but it seemed to be too compromising, I might be able to get demonic energy like this, but it could impact my growth negatively. I wish I had a guinea pig to try these experiments on… But humans are hard to get without bringing too much unwanted attention, and quite honestly, I am not interested in bringing such problems to my life.

But… there are certain humans that these humans think are not worthy of their rights, criminals. They are often publicly executed and they pay a hefty sum for capturing certain criminals as well. I had considered capturing criminals myself and get some prize out of them, or even keeping them for my own experiments. The problem is where could I eve put them? I would need to build some sort of underground facility, even with Earth Shaping, a Tier 1 Earth Magic Spell that can shape the earth and build tunnels and underground caves, I would need an incredibly long amount of time and also mana, which I lack, so that idea was quickly scratched.

For now, experiments in human scum is not a thing that I can do yet. I need to experiment more though, and practice alchemy as well as the creation of Homunculi, as I want to give Erika a new body, it is essential that I must practice. Cassandra is a good specimen that might become a good material for Erika's new body, but I need more, possibly female bodies.

I won't go on a killing spree though, that's not my style. I will simply go on as usual and focus on my current problems and projects as of now. The demons in the forest are becoming more common than ever, and there is a growing fear in the population, but the arrival of the knights from the duchy seems to have calmed the people. Going out to hunt demons won't be as easy now with these knights going around everywhere.

Through this week I've been working for the priests while practicing my magic and techniques, gaining some proficiency along the way while earning money every day. My relationship with these people has improved, but a week is not really a long time for me to even trust them, so I keep my distance from them most of the time.

However, tonight, I was forced to act by Elizabeth, the demon child is still unwilling to come out of his room, I will beat some sense into him. He's too powerful and useful to be left rotting away inside his room. He will make a powerful ally, even if he doesn't want to.
