My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness - Chapter 35

Vampires of Earth (2)

‘Oh, this is exciting?’

What a betrayal.

I wondered if that guy was also under Gamma’s mental control, but I didn’t feel anything like that.

“…Keuheuk Minyoung! Why are you…? why!”

Jin So-ran is rolling on the floor with her spine shattered.

If there was enough time, it would be possible to recover with the vampire’s regenerative power, but it was impossible right now.

Meanwhile, Gamma’s subordinates attacked her with long skewers.

“

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

A shock wave erupted along with her cry.

The rushing vampires bounced away.

But her resistance did not last long.

“Keuuu—you bastards…”

Her whole body was pierced by skewers, her wounds were frozen, and pitch-black chains sealed her supernatural abilities.

No matter how strong she was, it was impossible for her to deal with everyone here while being surprised.

“Whoa, that’s why they say you’re a kid.”

Gamma grinned and stepped in front of her.

Minyoung, who was the first to be attacked, just watched with her arms crossed, while another colleague closed his eyes and looked away from her on the spot.

She looked at her colleagues with trembling eyes and then glared at Gamma, who was approaching her.

“peace? It’s good. But you can only protect it if you have strength.”

He looked down at her, who had been beaten down, and spoke as if preaching.

“We are strong. It’s much stronger than the widespread livestock-like humans. But we have to hide from the prying eyes of our inferiors. Because of those disgusting hypocrites.”

“You’re absolutely crazy. Are you denying the time when you were human? “You’re a vampire now?”

“Well… there was a time like that.”

Gamma smiled wryly.

He didn’t seem to care what she protested.

“But we were chosen. I stood here now after overcoming life-threatening battlefields and numerous battles. “Aren’t we all like that?”

He shouted as if making a speech and looked around.

His colleagues, as well as those who came with Jin So-ran, nodded in agreement.

“Why do we have to be treated like this? until when? I can’t go anywhere proudly and I can’t make a name for myself. “Is there any meaning to a life of just hiding and surviving?”

“dog sound! In the first place, it was the hardliners who caused the accident every time that’s why things ended up like this! “If we had made concessions and talked to each other from the beginning, we could have coexisted!”

“Well, that’s just your opinion. “Maybe it was.”

Unexpectedly, Gamma seemed calm despite her protests.

“Then what do those who have been with the moderate faction think?”

Following his gaze, Jin So-ran turned his head to those who were his colleagues.

Lee, who still closes his eyes and ignores the situation, looks at her with his arms crossed and Minyoung looks at her.

Minyoung, who was quietly making eye contact with her, opened her mouth.

“We have tried in many ways to follow the policies of the moderates, but nothing has changed. So, I felt skeptical. How long do I have to live like this? forever? “You came back from hell alive?”

“What happened in the past cannot be undone. “This is the best for now.”

The group members who had closed their eyes until now also quietly said a word.

At their reaction, Jin So-ran closed his eyes tightly and lowered his head.

After enjoying her reaction for a moment, Gamma stepped forward again.

“To begin with, we are predators. But why should we bow down? Yes, the biggest problem is the lack of numbers. “Numbers are a measure of influence.”

Jin So-ran lowers his head and Gamma talks intoxicated with herself.

I leisurely gathered information while watching this skit.

The motive for the crime was also great information.

“It takes strength to overcome that. A power even more overwhelming than now!”

But this is not another world.

In this world, he was compensated for his growth and quickly became stronger, but he had to give it up when he returned to Earth.

“Now we can’t accumulate karma or become stronger as quickly as before! Like the vampires of the original world, I have no choice but to continuously increase my strength by sucking blood. But even that is limited? under! “Blood pack?”

The act of directly sucking blood had magical meaning.

Rather than simply drinking blood to increase strength, it was closer to a ritual of accumulating karma and gaining strength by stealing the victim’s life force.

A blood pack that does not contain any salt may relieve hunger, but it does not increase strength.

‘So, is it like a diet menu?’

It is possible to survive with only blood packs.

However, it is almost as if you are barely surviving, and if you continue to wear it, even your strength will gradually decrease.

“So we searched for a way to quickly become stronger, and we finally found it.”

Anyone with keen sense would have already figured out what he was going to say.

It was the same for Jin So-ran.

“You… this bastard? “Are you touching a taboo?”

Where have all the vampires who have been kidnapped so far gone?

Cannibalism.

The fastest and surest way for a vampire to become stronger.

However, the side effects are more severe than the effects.

It was the same in Outerica, but the notoriety on Earth was on a different level.

“Taboo is not taboo for nothing! Are you going to repeat that tragedy again?!”

The early days of the returnee crisis.

There was a lot of chaos around the world, many of which were caused by vampires.

Predation of one’s own kind was an unwritten rule in any dimension, but there were vampires who overcame it and returned to Earth after becoming stronger.

They were already a little sick of it, so they attacked the same vampires to become stronger when they returned to Earth, and as a result…

“Are you going to create crazy bloodsuckers again?!”

When it receives the blood of a vampire from another dimension, different vampire factors combine and evolve.

The recessive factor is eliminated and only the dominant factor is expressed, becoming overwhelmingly stronger.

‘The problem is that even more than that, extreme mental contamination occurs.’

Since it leads to evolution at the genetic level, should we say that it is a natural reward?

As a result, blood-crazed demons run rampant, raising the risk of vampires around the world.

In fact, the incident at that time must have had a huge impact on why vampires were persecuted to this extent.

“The higher-ups won’t leave you alone! “No matter what string you are holding on to, it will blow away!”

Afterwards, predation on one’s own kind became a taboo on Earth, and mad bloodsuckers became targets of extermination even for fellow vampires.

I’m willing to take that kind of risk…

“Listen to the end. Of course, it’s true that they used compatriot predation.”

Gamma then smiled and showed a confident expression.

“However, after countless research and collaboration, we have found a way to remove as much of the thoughts contained in the blood as possible and safely become stronger. “The effect has been reduced, but it’s worth it.”

An achievement achieved by gathering knowledge from all levels, including blood magic and black magic, as well as witchcraft, curses, and alchemy.

I received a lot of outside help in the process, but as long as this was possible, everything else didn’t matter.

‘…I was wondering why that bastard was talking like that. ‘You were making a mess again, weren’t you?’

When I look at him from a step away, I can clearly see the group of people affected by his words and actions.

The weak were more blindly loyal to him, and the strong were also affected to some extent, and the slight sense of guilt that remained in those who betrayed Jin Shao-ran also disappeared.

“Is this enough to answer all your questions? And for the rest, don’t worry too much. “I have no intention of fighting with members of the same clan.”

As if he was about to end it, Gamma walked up to her, sat down, and grabbed her hair.

“Those two people agreed to cooperate, so don’t worry about their alibi. “Let the Guardian kill you on your way back.”

“Keep your promises. “When she said she was coming here, we took the risk of getting caught and followed her.”

“of course. “Thanks to you, we have such great ingredients, so let’s give you medicine first.”

He answered coolly and looked down at Jin So-ran, who looked miserable.

She is a woman who clashed with me at every turn since she was in Nocturnia because her values did not match.

As I thought this was the last time, I felt sad.

“Well, it’s the last time, so I’ll let you go comfortably. “If you sleep for a while, it will be over soon.”

“you…!”

She was about to shout something, but immediately lost consciousness and collapsed due to the blood magic poured into her by Gamma.

He stood up and ordered her to be moved into an inner room.

“I kept you waiting for a long time due to something unexpected. Well, you understand the situation, right? Are you sorry about this?”

Gamma smiles and turns her head this way.

You’re finally looking this way.

“No, because it was quite fun. “There is no need to worry.”

When he answered leisurely, lowering the mask he was wearing, his face instantly hardened.

And then he winked at the subordinate next to him.

“…Level 5. “The regenerative power is a bit strong, but it’s not something that’s special.”

“Hmm, that’s right?”

Gamma became calm again and walked in this direction.

It seemed like he had the ability to gauge the level of the subordinate next to him…

Outerica’s pureblood seemed to be roughly level 5-6.

“Is this a bluff? “I don’t know how you broke my control, but do you think you can get out of this situation on your own at level 5?”

It certainly is.

I’m not sure of the exact level, but there are only four purebloods here, and the rest are residual blood or higher.

If he was going to escape, it would have been better to move while Jin So-ran was in the midst of his resistance.

‘There’s really no need to do that anymore.’

I didn’t even intend to do that in the first place.

Since I got good information this time, why not try it out for myself?

“Let’s see… nine? “It’s so effective. I can’t wait to see how much stronger it will become if nine people eat it.”

“…What kind of bullshit are you talking about?”

Gamma looked uneasy at my still calm appearance.

“Didn’t you explain it excitedly just a little while ago? That’s why the mad blood demon incident happened. “I learned about this secret story and I think today is a useful day in many ways.”

“He was just a crazy person…”

He gestured at his subordinates as if he didn’t want to talk anymore.

They are slowly approaching this way due to Gamma’s signal.

But their walk did not last long.

Saaaaa—

a sudden chill that spreads.

The air sinks heavily.

The people gathered there held their breath without realizing it, and for a moment, there was silence in the hall.

Those who came to their senses belatedly looked around and were on guard…

but before they knew it, the entire inner wall of the building was covered in darkness.

[The concealment ability was quite good, but the security was very poor.]

Hans slowly emerged from the darkness.

I received a little help from Heinz inside when figuring out the barrier, but I guess it doesn’t really matter now.

“…Hahoe mask? “How are you here?!”

Gamma shouted in awe.

He was more confident than anyone else in his ability to conceal himself, but the barrier he had put so much effort into installing was discovered.

As he looked at the situation in confusion, Heinz, who had been particularly calm from earlier, came in.

“you you…! “You dragged me in…!”

I don’t know what tactic they used, but that guy must have done something.

Otherwise, that attitude couldn’t be explained.

There was someone who was just as embarrassed as Gamma, who was so sure and gritted his teeth…

“I’m going… Gamma…!”

He was a person with insight skills who could tell Heinz’s level.

When Hahoetal showed no sign of moving immediately, Gamma just rolled her eyes and looked at him.

“It’s my first time seeing this level of energy, so I’m not sure…!”

“What are you doing so frustratingly! If you have anything to say, say it quickly!”

While he was rambling, he closed his eyes and shouted at Gamma’s yelling.

“Level 8…!At least level 8!”

My intestines froze once again.
