??? POV

-----

Greenwood is moving, good. It seems that he's planning something big this time, interesting.

I am still busy here in Jotunheim, these Vampire Families that I have to maintain are quite the pain to deal with.

Hm, instead of being eloquent and calculative such as him, I was made of a fragment that is more selfish and egocentric. Oh, well, we all are, bwahaha!

Nonetheless, I suppose I cannot act as scheming as he does. I usually like to be direct.

And to be honest I am rather angered at something very important.

Two years ago a little girl that was planned to be the sacrifice I required to complete a special Spell Jewel creation disappeared.

The one at fault? Her mother and her butler which she had never met.

These Vampires are truly hilarious beings. They originate from the Demon Venerable of Blood, yet they act as if they were rightful owners of their own lives.

Don't they understand the truth behind their very existence? As if the Demon Venerable of Blood were to have died for real… They really don't know that he's here, always here.

Well, that I was made into a Vampire is because of the main body's whim. He wanted to see if it could be possible to suppress his connective will and cancel his future resurrection.

This is why I killed the youngest and most talented of the clan in here too, aside from using them as materials to reinforce my Spell Jewels.

This is, after all, one of the few Vampire Clans that still constantly worships him as a benevolent God, yet it is also secluded from most of the outside world, living so far away from civilization and maintaining their own villages of mortals to slowly feed on while letting them reproduce…

Of course, and naturally, there are many other Vampires spread across the world. And as an Immortal, I cannot limit myself to a single region.

Nonetheless, I am deeply annoyed because of this little girl and what his mother did.

Despite being as powerful as I am, I have to admit that I am rather careless.

This little wench was given a treasure I have been looking for everywhere here and the reason I have stayed most of the time in this place.

How utterly detestable… Her mother had it this whole time? That sickly vampire?

And her mother was the one that gave that pendant to her… Agh…

That little whore must not even realize what that little pendant is…

Of course, she doesn't know that it is a fragment of the Mana Core of the Demon Venerable of Blood. And therefore, it is also a part of his soul that was modified and materialized into an artifact.

That vampire was clever. He knew that Fate would suppress his reincarnation, so he scattered his own soul into items, not fragments. This way, he was able not to be seen by Fate as he was technically dead, yet not.

Like a dry cactus plant, a bit of water will revive them from their "death".

The same applies here, to an extent…

But even then, if he does this right away, wouldn't it be bad for him? Of course, it would be.

After all, Fate, although awakened, is yet to fragment or be destroyed, the resurrection of Venerables is not possible yet…

Due to this girl not only being the fuel for my Spell Jewel but also holding such an important item, I had to send my dogs after her.

"Don't worry, I will make sure to bring her body back, maybe a bit tore apart…"

"But she should be fine, after all, as Vampires, we have amazing regeneration, right?"

I looked at the woman below as I sat over her stomach while crossing my legs, my sharp heels had already crushed her face plenty of times, but this frustration does go away, I really have to crush her a bit more…

"Agghh… Ahh… Y-You… You won't suppress our ancestor's resurrection…!"

"Hm? A mere mortal knows this much?"

"Ruby is a talented girl… She'll… keep it safe from your putrid hands…"

"Bold of you to assume I won't find her beforehand. What gives you so much confidence?"

"Our lord ancestor is watching over her… what other reassurance do I need?"

"I don't like that look on your eyes, talk more respectfully to your immortal authorities."

"I will never… Respect an impostor like you…"

"Impostor? Fine, let's see if you can survive this. Let me see the full capabilities of a mortal vampire."

I extended my claws and sliced her belly open. I grabbed her intestines and began to tear them apart.

"AAAGGH…! GRRRYYYAAGGH…!"

"Yes, scream you bitch. This is what awaits your little whore of a daughter!"

I continued to take away her organs, I called my Demon Gods from my Blood, as I let them feast in her open ribcage.

"AAAGGH…! GGGRRAAGGGHH…!"

As I watch the ant agonize, I cannot help but laugh maniacally.

Was the main body like this? I believe I had become rather independent in this regard.

Perhaps I have already become more than just a Color…

I lick my lips as I see her suffer, the wolves go for her breasts as they devour them.

Hmm~ so plump, isn't it, dearies?

I pat them as they wave their tails while devouring her.

And of course, like any Vampire that is a direct descendant from the Venerable…

Her organs begin to grow back at incredible speed, even her heart recovers back, her breasts, her skin, her liver, everything…

Vampires are truly a powerful race, even this mortal can be eaten alive and still survive for hours.

Of course, and naturally, like any other being, they're not without the need for energy.

Their mana fuels their regeneration, without it, the regeneration weakens, and they ultimately can be killed.

I pour some blood into her open mouth as she wakes up from her unconscious state.

There you go, some more energy for you.

"Now, would you tell me where's your damn butler at?"

"No… I won't tell you anything…"

"Hahh… You're such a good mother! Eat her again."
