My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness - Chapter 123

#123

Eupersch Clan (2)

Bisque Eupersch returned to his original form with his subordinates on the hill overlooking the capital.

He quietly glared at the city with a distorted expression.

“under-! Was it because of this?”

The unpleasant feeling didn’t go away the entire time I came here, so I was in an uneasy state, but when I arrived, I was finally able to figure out the cause.

“Brokoslag… That ghost somehow managed to survive. “And that’s why you’re here right now, right?”

Faced with an unexpected situation, he concluded that this must have been the cause of the discomfort he had been feeling.

It was much more persuasive to think that way than to suffer because the cause was unknown.

‘Yes, if the other person was of the same blood, that could be possible. ‘I was so uncomfortable because I instinctively felt that my enemy was at close range.’

He forced himself to be convinced and smiled coldly.

I still felt uncomfortable, but that could be resolved once I got rid of Brokoslak.

“…Mr. Bisque? Are you really saying that ‘Holy Blood Brokoslag’ is there?”

At that time, Theodor Jupersch, who was quietly standing next to him, frowned and cautiously asked him a question.

When making plans, it was not assumed that there would be blood on the other side, so this would inevitably cause significant disruption to the operation.

“Yes, there are remnants of the past over there…”

Bisque, who answered as if it was no big deal, glanced to the side.

One of his eyebrows was slightly raised, as if showing his discomfort.

“So what’s the problem? What difference do you think it will make if one more ghost is added to this me? “You’re sure the elites of Eupersch aren’t scared, are they?”

At his reaction, which seemed quite nervous, Theodore quickly lowered his head, breaking into a cold sweat.

“Oh no. I am just saying this because I am concerned that unnecessary damage may increase. According to the original plan, we had to end the situation without much damage and then continue with the task of fixing the Kingdom of Thalia.”

At his desperate excuse, Bisque stared at the back of his head, then turned his gaze back to the city and clicked his tongue.

I reacted sharply without realizing it because of the discomfort I felt the entire way, but I had no choice but to take some damage if this happened.

Even though the two Jinhyeol were missing, there was no way to know what kind of defenses would be in place in that place, the enemy’s stronghold.

Moreover, isn’t the former Lord, Mulo Brokoslag, a type of wizard who specializes in blood magic?

There was no other being as difficult as a wizard who had locked himself in his own territory and prepared thoroughly.

“Anyway, it looks like they noticed us on the other side, so let’s go in right away. “We can’t give them any more time to prepare here.”

“yes!”

For a vampire who was born in the dark, sneaking into the city at night is as easy as breathing.

Nearly fifty shadows moved quickly and stealthily over the castle wall.

***

“Mullo? “How are you prepared?”

Bricky, who was sipping black tea while lounging comfortably on the sofa in Mulo Brokoslag’s office, opened his mouth in a carefree tone.

Unlike before, when he was extremely sensitive, his appearance, like a withered vegetable, made me doubt whether he was really the person who had come to warn me of a crisis.

Naturally, the wise Mulo did not point that out.

“First of all, I ordered to summon as many external personnel as possible and strengthen security. However, it is difficult to respond without knowing exactly what is going on, so we can do it normally…”

“Eupersch has invaded.”

“…yes? You mean Clan Eupersch? Why suddenly…?”

“What are you going to do if you ask me, who has just woken up, that? “You should know.”

“That’s true, but… this is something that really had no foreshadowing.”

He continued to respond with a puzzled expression and immediately spread the situation to all clan members in the mansion.

If it were an all-out war, they would have to come together and respond in order to avoid individual destruction, so it was necessary to gather all of the troops under his command in one place.

Then, Mulo stood up and hurried out of the office, massaging his eyes as he walked.

Bricky was still following behind him, yawning lazily, but he couldn’t afford to worry about her attitude anymore.

‘The humans residing in the mansion were ordered not to come outside until further notice, and a barrier has been set up for them, so it won’t be a big problem…’ More than

that, the problem now is that the leader of the top 3 vampire clans and the strongest fighting power. It was the fact that Jupersch had invaded.

Compared to those who came prepared properly, our preparations were very inadequate.

“So do you know where they are now?”

Mulo opened the door to the large banquet hall where his subordinates were gathered, entered, and asked Brickie a question.

Bisque, the Holy Blood over there, must have tried something, but my Jinhyeol senses were unable to detect anything.

To begin with, as a person with a magic background, his sense of perception was somewhat inferior compared to his other abilities.

“Ugh, that’s it?”

Bricky, who was stretching out in the back, calmly answered his question.

However, the voice was much more lively, as if the previous appearance had been a lie.

“Just-.”

It’s like taking out your stored energy and preheating it in preparation for something.

“yes?”

“—You’re in.”

It’s so hard!

As soon as she finished speaking.

I felt like a hole had opened in the barrier surrounding the mansion and dozens of vampires were invading.

With a murderous and hostile presence.

***

“This is so…. It’s so tough and alive, Brokoslag. “I thought it was time to die.”

“Then how is it that you are consistently so rude now and then? “Is that also the tradition of Eupersh, as does the Sentai guy?”

“It seems like you have a lot of regrets in life, so let me use this opportunity to help you close your eyes comfortably. “That proud clan will also fall together, so you won’t be lonely.”

“It’s very similar to not listening to what others say. “How can I be so unlucky?”

Two holy bloods facing each other and saying only what they have to say.

It didn’t take long for those waiting in the large banquet hall and those who had broken into the mansion to meet each other.

In the first place, Eupersch’s purpose was to wipe out Brokoslak and take its place.

‘This isn’t very good.’

While the Holy Bloods were arguing, Mulo quietly gritted his teeth after comparing the two groups that were confronting each other.

The number itself was slightly higher this way.

No matter how quickly they called in people from nearby areas, it was not difficult to mobilize this much as this was their home base.

But the problem is quality.

‘Purebloods only have a little more than a fever, and the rest are all residual blood. Of course, it’s better than nothing, but…’

For your information, servants and slaves were not placed here at all.

Isn’t it impossible to manage those half-baked people who can’t even properly hide their energy in the capital city of Talaria, which even has a temple?

‘Even if Briki is dealing with Bisque Eupersch, there are only four Jinhyeols… It’s dark.’

Mulo sighed inwardly but quietly cheered up.

Actually, there was a part of me that believed in it.

As he came under Heinz’s command, he was also able to benefit from the “Refined Blood Purity” and thus achieved greater development than before.

As his heart beat, the sticky blood magic emitted from the evolved vampire factor flowed through his blood vessels and throughout his body.

“So who is the current lord over there? I want to see how the clan was able to get over it… Hmm?”

Bisque, who was continuing to fight with Bricky with invisible energy while arguing, noticed something.

It was already too late.

Whoa!

The blood symbol hidden in the mansion glowed red and distorted the space.

The banquet hall, which was already large, continued to expand and became a great battlefield.

In addition, the barrier strengthened the allies inside and gave debuffs to those who opposed him, reducing the power gap.

‘It’s nice to be able to expand abilities that were limited to the office to the entire mansion… but not to this extent.’

Thanks to the barrier, the lower-level vampires were able to buy some time, but it was still not enough to deal with the Jinhyeol on the other side.

Additional reinforcements were also needed here.

And he had one method he could use to receive support from the barrier.

“Come to me. Phrygia—!”

As soon as Mulo’s spell ends, a puddle of blood forms right in front of you.

There, Phrygia appeared, fully prepared for battle.

“Hmm, I didn’t know we’d be fighting them so soon.”

As soon as she was summoned, she sighed and immediately prepared for battle.

Because the distance from the forest of monsters was so far, both Jinhyeol could not be summoned, but this should have balanced the situation a bit.

‘All that’s left is to hold out as defensively as possible until Bricky kills Bisque.’

Of course, the fact that this is still far from being enough to defeat the opponent does not change.

Still, this barrier cannot be easily broken from the inside by even the Precious Blood, so it may be able to withstand to some extent…

“Oh, yes. “I took it into consideration to some extent, but this is a bit annoying.”

A voice heard from a short distance away.

While Mulo was continuing his thoughts, a pair of pure white eyes suddenly met his gaze.

“If I get rid of you, this barrier will also disappear.”

While Mulo could not react, Bisque moved in front of him in an instant and stretched out his hand to pierce his heart—.

“Aren’t you ignoring me too much?”

Kwaang—!

He and Bricky collided head-on with a large shock wave.

Thanks to her, Mulo, who was able to escape the crisis, closed his space to avoid himself and quietly wiped away his cold sweat.

“…Okay, I have to get rid of this ghost first.”

“Ugh, you deserve to get hit too.”

Bisque, who was unable to do anything even when the barrier was activated due to Bricky’s control, gritted her teeth in frustration at the repeated interruption, and she also increased her momentum, not to be outdone.

At that moment, the tension between both sides was rising again.

Kwadduk—kwazidik!

Suddenly, a crack appeared on one side of Mulo’s barrier.

“What is this!”

Mulo, embarrassed again, hurriedly adjusted the space and twitched the corners of his eyes.

A hole was being created in the barrier due to an unidentified external force applied from outside.

Even though this space is weaker to shocks from the outside than from the inside, it was a barrier that he put a lot of effort into installing and became much stronger than before.

Even if Jinhyeol attacks from the outside, it is not something that can be easily destroyed.

The unexpected situation caught everyone’s attention for a moment, and a pair of scaly hands with sharp nails slithered in through the crack.

Then he began to carefully open it to both sides, as if opening a sliding door. A crack in the

barrier slowly opens, and

a hairy beast’s head

comes through it .

“Wow, I didn’t think of this barrier. “The timing was a bit late to come in as gently as possible.”

The head of an animal… no, the person wearing the head of a beast in the shape of an animal grumbled softly and pulled his body out of the crack.

As soon as his large, muscular body entered, the barrier was instantly restored as if something had gone wrong.

It was a clean intrusion that did not require too much use of the technique, to the point that even Mulo, who had activated it, was taken aback.

“what? “Who is that guy?”

“…savage? “No, that arm…?”

From the naked upper body to the writhing muscles, dark red scales and sharp nails covering both arms with wild tattoos.

An intruder with a unique appearance looked everywhere with a pair of eyes shining in different colors under the head of a demonic beast.

He confirmed that the attention of those around him was also focused on him.

“Who are these big-time bastards who dared touch our Hubert!”

Harley, the barbarian warrior who came to avenge his friend, shouted majestically on the spot.

Putter! Tduduk—!

At the same time, a bloody sound began to escape from the imposing body that had exerted its utmost strength.

As if foreshadowing future violence.

“Hubert?”

“No, what are you talking about when you suddenly come here…”

Those who had not yet grasped the situation looked at each other and frowned.

From the intrusion of an unknown person to the words he said, there were only a handful of people here who could understand it.

But Harley’s gaze didn’t seem to care about that reaction.

He was already just staring quietly in the direction of the Eupersch Clan.

“found-.”

When he found his target, his fiercely raised mouth revealed teeth like beasts.

“So it’s you? The guy who stirred up that weak kid’s stomach like meat soup?”

Ugly vertically split pupils.

It flew straight at Klein, a vampire with red hair and red eyes.
