My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness - Chapter 21

Acrich (2)

[Oh… that’s very good. Excellent!]

Hans stored all the items brought by the undead in subspace.

They literally swept up all the items that could make money.

Quang!

He scanned the entire mansion with overwhelming black magic, and when he found a place worth hiding, he destroyed it without hesitation.

[…Amazing.]

All kinds of precious metals filled in a hidden warehouse.

I could feel the wealth of the vampires who had devoured a city and accumulated it over a long period of time.

‘But now it’s all mine.’

Along with Hans’ subspace that day, my heart was also enriched.

‘Today is a beef party.’

***

“Hansra… That’s a common name.”

Talaria, the capital of the Kingdom of Thalia on the western side of the continent.

In a dark room with thick curtains, a man was looking at a red liquid in a wine glass.

‘Who are you…?’

‘My name is Hans.’

A brief conversation with a strange masked being.

“Tsk, it doesn’t help until the end.”

It was the final memory sent by Wirak, the head of the Azantu branch.

There must have been a barrier blocking the information being sent, and that was all he could remember.

“You can’t just sit still.”

The fragment of the Immortal King that he was concerned about was stolen.

Perhaps the branch of Azantu is not doing well either.

First, it was necessary to understand the exact circumstances.

He drank the drink in his hand in one go and threw the wine glass on the floor.

Clink!

“Hans…”

Brokoslak, Clan Lord Mulo Brokoslak.

He dispatched an investigation team to Azantu City.

***

It was a peaceful time.

“Wow, you are so amazing. How do you catch it so easily every time?…”

“Hahaha I looked around for a moment and saw it and quickly caught it. “Then please take care of me.”

“Don’t worry. “I will prepare right away.”

A middle-aged man took the rabbits I had caught aside and cleaned them.

“mister! Do you have meat today too? Wow~!”

Aaron, who was helping set up camp with his sister, jumped up and down with excitement.

I smiled and stroked Aaron’s head.

We were leaving the city of Azantu and heading east towards the city of Tilak.

Leaving the city wasn’t difficult.

All the vampires were eliminated and the back alley gangs had no time to worry about this.

It’s been 3 days since we hired a cart and driver to move.

Walter, the coachman, had once worked as a mercenary, and thanks to that, he was able to learn various small know-hows.

“Thank you for your hard work, uncle.”

Diana came over and handed me a canteen.

“It’s no big deal. “Thank you for the water.”

I tilted the canteen to drink water and looked at Diana.

Diana’s complexion had clearly improved compared to when we first met, perhaps because she had been eating well for a few days.

Also, the fact that I was free from Ajantu, where I was always nervous, must have had a positive impact.

After a while, Diana noticed his gaze and carefully looked around.

And then he quietly approached me.

“Hey man. Are you thirsty yet? “Would you like some blood?”

I looked at her dumbfounded for a moment as she whispered in my ear, and then laughed.

Then he lightly pushed my forehead and stroked my head.

“It’s okay, it’s okay. “I ate until my stomach exploded this time.”

It was okay for the time being, as it was full of Azantu’s vampires.

Even if that weren’t the case, how could they suck blood from this little child?

I’d rather get some blood from the bad guys when I get to the city.

‘Now that I think about it, I don’t think I saw Rosilica.’

Suddenly, I remembered the vampire with residual blood who was in charge of my education.

Rosilica was nowhere to be seen, either from where the fragments were or when the main base was later attacked.

Still, I was reluctant to harm the other person directly because we were in a relationship, but I was also glad…

‘Well, it would be better for both of us if we didn’t see each other again. ‘It would be nice if you thought he died in the city.’

Because this was a body that escaped.

“The meat is ready to be grilled.”

“Wow~ Uncle! sister! “Hurry quickly~!”

Walter and Aaron called us from the campfire.

For the past few days, whenever I grilled meat, I sprinkled spices from the earth on it, and the response was very good.

I smiled as I headed to the campfire with Diana.

One day to reach our destination, Tilak City.

It was a very peaceful trip.

***

Late morning.

In the forest near the city of Azantu.

Rosilica, a vampire with residual blood, finished her report while prostrating.

Prostrating next to her was the pureblood Pirita, who had gone out of the city to search for debris.

“Hmm… In the end, nothing is certain.”

Rosilica was dispatched immediately after the attack to retrieve Pirita from outside the city.

The problem is that by the time those who went out of the city came back in a hurry, the whole situation had already ended.

The hideout where the fragments were hidden and the home base where the clan branch was located were all destroyed.

And Pirita, who specializes in sensing abilities, could tell.

The immense black magic felt within the city that seemed to have leaked out because it could not be completely hidden.

She realized that there were still evil beasts remaining in the city and decided that the current situation was a problem that could not be helped by their power alone.

Afterwards, he immediately retreated and reported the incident to the clan.

He then monitored the surroundings of the city and watched the being’s further movements.

“After all that chaos, you’re still in the city? “We must have looked quite ridiculous… Who the hell are we?”

After hearing all of their reports, the boy got up from the tree branch he was sitting on and looked in the direction of the city.

Two red eyes glowed brightly in the darkness.

“Then, shall we see your face in person? “Who dared to do something like this in our territory?” As soon as those words

ended,

dozens of shadows rushed into the city from the darkness of the forest.

Rosilica and Pirita, who were prostrating, also followed suit.

The one who leads them is a boy standing on a tree.

It was ‘Obor Brokoslak’, a true-blooded vampire.

Soon a group of bats headed toward the city.

***

Hans was looking around the city again today.

‘Security isn’t as broken as you think, is it?’

I expected that as the vampires were destroyed, the chains of the organizations would be loosened, but things turned out to be more systematic than I expected.

‘Well, it’s only been three days. ‘It would be natural to remain cautious until the situation is clearly understood.’

Because their lives were at stake.

If I showed up for no reason, my head could be blown off by the rulers who returned later.

‘For the time being, we’ll just have to deal with those who seem to be crossing the line.’

We decided not to touch the current organization as long as we did not cross the appropriate line.

Still, they kept their own rules.

‘It’s better than having empty seats taken up by idiots who don’t know anything.’

Since he wasn’t going to be in this city forever, it wasn’t a good idea to get too involved.

The best thing would be for the kingdom to dispatch management personnel again…

‘That won’t happen. The mayor was already a servant of the vampire.’

Although they were not turned into vampires for external activities, the mayor was like a puppet following their orders.

‘This place will fall into the hands of the vampire clan again. There’s nothing I can do about it… Hmm, has it arrived…?’

I could feel beings approaching the city at high speed.

These spirits are definitely vampires.

‘Now that these guys are here, I guess I’ll have to get out of the city quickly.’

I left the city in the opposite direction of their approach and headed into the nearby forest.

‘He’s coming this way right away. Did you find out the location? The magic cloaking field isn’t perfect either.’

Not only was he not yet used to dealing with the explosion of black magic power from absorbing the second fragment, but the magic he used to monitor the entire city must have been a problem.

I had no intention of fighting anyway, so it didn’t matter how many people came.

‘Are we going to get along with each other appropriately and then leave…?!’

Kwaaaaang—!

The defensive magic that was deployed momentarily was broken and the body was thrown backwards.

[Ugh— I was surprised.]

In a split second, I was attacked by something approaching at incredible speed.

Fortunately, the magic barrier released at the moment of impact was able to absorb the impact and throw the body backwards, minimizing damage.

I wrapped all kinds of barriers around my body and looked at the person who attacked.

A boy who appears to be in his mid to late teens. It was definitely a vampire.

But the energy I feel is…

[Is it true blood?]

“Oh… someone did it. “Is this a lich with the energy of death?”

A true-blooded vampire with white hair and red eyes.

The guy looked at me with a wry smile that didn’t fit his cute boy’s face.

I didn’t really get it when I heard it, but when I saw it in person, I knew for sure.

It is a monster that cannot even be compared to a pureblood.

“My name is Obor. He is the true blood of the Brokoslak Clan. Are you a member of the ‘Oath of Reverse Heaven’? So, are you targeting the fragments we have?”

[okay. We got the information that you guys were targeting the ‘Fragments of the Immortal King’ that we had, so we struck first. How long did you think you could hide it?]

As soon as an opportunity was seized to screw up the bad guys and confuse information, lies naturally flowed out.

If it works, good, if not, no.

The guy spoke leisurely, probably thinking that the battle had already been won.

Perhaps, just to be sure, he is waiting for his minions to approach him from all directions as if surrounded.

‘I think I can beat at least one true blood…’

If you add more than 20 residual blood to the five pure bloods, it is definitely impossible.

There were still a few hours left until the sun rose.

In response to my response, Obor narrowed his eyes and looked at me as if assessing.

“They say the village they were hiding in was attacked by someone. “You didn’t steal it?”

[under! They just had different goals. Then, isn’t it inevitable to determine superiority and inferiority by force?]

He raised his head and responded shamelessly.

I can’t read pupils and my body doesn’t sweat.

The voice is also just a sound made by resonating magical power.

“…It doesn’t really matter now. “Because of you, our reputation has been lost.”

Before I knew it, dozens of vampires were surrounding me on the trees nearby.

Looking closely, it appeared that the blood magic barrier had been surrounded like a net, blocking the escape route.

‘I was wondering why they were approaching from all directions…’

If you concentrate your strength, you may be able to break through, but Jinhyeol over there won’t just sit by and watch.

If I mobilize all the undead I have, there is a high possibility that there will be a significant loss of power.

“There is nowhere to run. “I’ll catch you and pull out the fragments you stole.”

In a situation where they could not get used to their new power, they encountered a strong man and vampires surrounded them.

It was clearly a crisis situation… but

to me, it was just an interesting story.

[Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk…. You can’t catch me. I will leave here today.]

That was why.

The reason he empathized with the situation and delivered lines that seemed like a villain would have something to do with it.

Kwaang—!

As soon as I finished speaking, Obor attacked.

The barrier around us shook and was torn apart one by one, but we were able to hold on for a while.

Soon, the surrounding vampires also started attacking me.

[Remember this. I am Hans of the Oath of Reverse Heaven! A stake that approaches silently in the calm dawn and pierces the heart! Lament that helplessness. I am your death!]

As I typed the villain’s trademark comment, I unconsciously became excited and picked up whatever I could.

One side of the opposite sex seemed to be screaming, but isn’t it okay to just have fun now?

I decided to think about it later.

[I’m coming back.] I

said as many lines as I could think of, and finally gave a thumbs up to the guys who were attacking me from all directions.

‘Cancellation of summons.’

Just like that, Acrich Hans disappeared from the Outerica dimension.

And Earth.

As a reward for drinking too much, Han Seong-hyun had to kick the blanket off for the next few tens of minutes… but

it was planned karma.
