Book 2: Chapter 6 (4/8)
Iris then teleported Kain to the Fourth-tier of the Timeless Dungeon. As Kain opened his eyes, he saw a man having a pair of bat wings flying in front of him. Kain immediately started chanting for [Demon Anatomy IV] spell but Iris said, You can relax. This is Urien Hyde, one of the Ancient Vampires of this world. He is not being hostile toward you.
Urien landed on the ground in front of Kain. Kain quickly compared his height to Urien and then whispered into Iriss left ear, Black hair, at least six feet three inches tall, and very handsome. I hate him already.
Urien observed Kain then turned toward Iris and asked, Is he the only one? I was expecting a group.
There will be no group this time. This is Kain Bersk. He is one of the Vampire Lords from Toria Continents. Iris answered as she pointed at Kain.
What is going on? Kain asked in a confusing tone.
Kain, Urien will tell you about your quest later. And Urien, Kain just told me that he already hated you for being taller and handsome. Iris disappeared right after she said this.
Ahem What should I call you? Urien or Mr. Hyde? Kain asked.
Call me by my full name, Ancient Vampire Urien Hyde.
Just Urien? Alright. So tell me. What is my quest, Urien?
Are the Vampire Lords from Toria Continents are all disrespectful like you? I am an Ancient Vampire. In another way to say this, I am your Elder.
Whatever.
Ignorant brat, your only quest is to rescue Lady Belinda Argent.
Who is this Lady Belinda Argent? Is she related to you?
She is my wife. Like me, she is an Ancient Vampire.
Urien then told Kain about what happened to his wife, Belinda Argent. This world was once ruled by Ancient Vampires until the Vampire Emperor was killed during the war between the Vampire Nobles. The human slaves took this opportunity to rise up and overthrow the Ancient Vampires. But then, they were quickly turned back into slaves by the new Vampire Emperor.
Hold on. Vampire Nobles? Vampire Emperor? Ancient Vampires? How many types of vampires are there?
Ancient Vampires are the original vampires that were born into this world, not by reproduction. Vampire Nobles are powerful vampires that are much stronger compared to Ancient Vampires. Vampire Emperor is well he was the strongest before he was killed.
Okay, who captured your wife?
The new Vampire Emperor.
I see. You want me to fight this Vampire Emperor to help you get your wife back.
Correct.
And if I refuse to help you, then I will fail the quest.
Yes.
I heard you mentioned human slaves. I dont have to save them or something like that, right?
Correct.
Alright, lets get this over with. Tell me how strong is this new Vampire Emperor. How many Vampire Nobles and Ancient Vampires work for him? How many vampires does he command in total? What are the strong spells that the Vampire Emperor uses? Tell me everything about them.
Dont you want to know why my wife was captured? Tears started running down from Uriens eyes as he asked Kain this question.
Urien, please dont tell me about it. I dont want to hear your romance bullshit.
Lady Belinda Argent possessed an unbelievable beauty that attracted the Vampire Emperor. It was my fault, I should have escaped with her before it was too late.
No more. I dont want to hear about it.
I have fought against the Vampire Emperor and attempted to rescue my wife, but he was too strong.
How strong?
Very strong. At least ten times stronger than me.
I understand now. Lets spar. I want to see how strong you are.
Kain activated [Demon Anatomy I] to transform himself into a human-size demon instead of [Demon Anatomy V] as he doesnt want to have to wear full platinum armor while having the flaming aura since this was just a spar, not an actual fight to the death.
Urien wasnt happy to see Kain transformed into a demon, he asked, What happened to your [Vampire Lord Transmutation]? Why dont you use it?
I dont want to waste the precious blood pools inside my Blood Equipment. This is just a friendly duel for me to determine how strong you are.
I have several blood farms here that can gather as much blood as you wanted.
In Toria Continents, we use human blood only.
Of course it has to be human blood. We have human slaves that volunteer to donate their blood once a year to trade for food and items. We also raised many human slaves on the farms for the purpose of collecting their blood only. We will take ten milliliters of blood from them twice a month.
Extraordinarily! This is great! I needed to build some blood farms when I got back to Toria Continents too. Anyway, lets start the fight. I want to see how- Kain couldnt finish the sentence as Urien appeared behind him and threw a powerful kick toward his back.
Kain turned one hundred eighty degrees as he raised both of his arms to block Uriens kick. Kain then threw several powerful punches using his fist toward Urien. Instead of blocking Kain's punches, Urien received those punches and appeared not to be affected by them at all as he continued to kick Kain using both of his legs forcing Kain to get back to defense mode. Kain blocked twenty-six more kicks from Urien before both of his arms could no longer move due to being broken. Urien took this opportunity to kick Kain once in the stomach at full force using his right leg.
What the- Kain could hear bones in his stomach were broken as he was blasted back thirty feet using the powerful kick from Urien and collided into a stone pillar.
Urien flew toward Kain to give him another powerful kick to the head in sympathy and said in a pitying tone, I told you already, transforming into a demon wont be enough.
Urien flew backward after confirming he had won the duel, Kain casted [Conjure Celestial Angel] and commanded it to cast [Health Regeneration] and [Mana Regeneration] spells on him. While laying on the ground waiting for his injuries to be healed, Kain asked Urien, Do you have to use a spell to transform into a Vampire?
No. I am an Ancient Vampire which meant I dont have to use the Blood Magic spell to keep my vampire form. Because this is my true form.
What about normal vampires?
