“Adrian Dravenham.”

Emir kept staring at Leiu while speaking that name

“Did you kill him?”

“I did.”

Leiu had no reason to hide it. To begin with, he didn’t think much of that young vampire. Xavier did tell him that Adrian hailed from an old Original Vampire Family, one not unlike Zeno’s in terms of history and power.

Zeno, who saw Leiu unhesitantly admit it, let out a sigh.

Her loyal confidant had briefed her about what happened, but she was still about how unhinged Leiu’s actions. Considering the circumstances, killing Adrian wasn’t totally unwarranted, nevertheless, it wasn’t a smart or wise move.

“He was working with a Player. He kidnapped humans and fed on them.”

Surprisingly, Emir didn’t flare up in anger or chastise Leiu’s actions. He merely nodded his head once while caressing his chin in contemplation.

“All vampires, especially Original ones, are forbidden from feeding on human blood. We have evolved and we no longer need that to sustain ourselves. What Adrian did was unfor

    Third Day in the Kantika ManorLeiu just left his room, heading to meet with Zeno and Xavier.On his way, however, he came across an unfamiliar face. A relatively tall dark-haired girl, whom he guessed was the other visitor: Anne Dravenham.Besides a cursory glance, he didn’t plan to talk to her, but the same couldn't be said to her.Anne purposely moved to the side and blocked his path.“Can I help you?”“You’re the other guest.” She stated while giving him a good look of scrutiny.“So?”“I’m Anne Dravenham.”“...”Anne expected him to reciprocate by introducing himself, but Leiu just gave her a certain look as if she was a weirdo.“I’m conducting an investigation concerning my brother’s murder. Can we talk?”“No. I’m very busy.”“It will only take a bit-”“No.”“...”Seeing his firm rejection, Anne’s brow twitched, almost breaking cold and unflinching expression.“Step aside.”“You’re the one who attacked this manor. Were you in Port Heim before you came here?”Leiu let out a grunt

    One day laterNorth-Eastern coast of the Kantika Isle.A relatively big and sturdy boat was prepared for Leiu, Xavier, and Zeno.“I still think you should take them along.”“No. I can protect myself, father.”Emir gave up on his stubbornness and sighed. He had wanted the Red Hounds to accompany his daughter, but she adamantly refused.Leiu was already on the boat, patiently waiting for Zeno to say her farewell to her family.They had discussed everything important and decided on an appropriate course of action. Admittedly, it was Zeno who made most of the ‘deciding’, claiming that his reckless and usually stupid plans always involved charging into absolute chaos with the hope of succeeding.She was to be his guide and helper, stopping him from getting himself killed and ensuring he reached the Cocoon in one piece.A distance away, Maria was engaging in hushed whispers with Xavier.“Don’t mess this up, okay? Nudge them the right away but don’t be too obvious.”“A-ahem…” Xavier, who was

    Like a bullet, Anne reached Leiu and thrust her Estoc, which was coated in dense Sword Essence.She was undoubtedly swift and dexterous, but Leiu counterattacked in a simple and seemingly random manner.He swung Kahra’s greatsword upwards, resulting in a shock wave that not only stopped Anne but also made her jump back to avoid the dark flames.Before she could find an opening, Leiu kicked the ground and broke into a lightning-fast unidirectional charge.He didn’t even reach her yet he performed multiple diagonal slashes, unleashing wide arcs of condensed energy.Anne hastily retreated and jumped from one spot to the other, but he eventually reached her.[Invisible Strike]He pulled the greatsword then successively stabbed twice, motions that were too blurry to see and too fast to properly block.Unable to see a way out, Anne gritted her teeth and thrust the estoc. Her thin and comparatively short shone with a redd-ish brilliance as the two distinct Sword Essences.There was a booming

    “We should reach the capital in 4 to 5 five, Mister Leiu.”“Okay.”Xavier scrutinized the youth before hesitantly suggesting,“I’m sure the long trip has worn you out, Mister Leiu. There’s a small lake nearby. It’s a good place to wash yourself and relax.”“No thank yo…” Leiu paused, looked at his linen shirt and dirty pants, which made him change his mind.The last time he showered was in the Kantika Manor. In contrast, Zeno would ask him to leave the carriage while she meticulously cleaned her body and changed into new and fresh clothes.“Which way is it?”“Go left and then straight ahead. It’s very close.”“Mhm.”Leiu stood up and went into the woods, not noticing the slightly tense face of Xavier.“I did it…” he mumbled while letting out a deep breath.It was early morning, so Leiu assumed Zeno was still asleep. However, she had already gone to the lake to bathe, and Xavier used this chance to make them meet in an unexpected and embarrassing manner.A couple of minutes later, Xavi

    “Leiu!”Once the explosive sounds of the battle quietened down, Zeno and Xavier ran back.“I’m fine.”“Are you sure? You don’t look to-”Zeno stopped once she saw him stand up and casually pick up the greatsword.“He escaped but not after I impaled him.”“...”Zeno kept giving him a strange look as he checked his body and did some stretching to ensure that there was no lingering pain.Inos’ curses were truly overpowered. Their healing and defensive capabilities allowed Leiu to recover in just a couple of minutes.“Who was that?”Anne Dravenham, who hadn’t been hit by the monk, spoke up. She was standing a bit close to the three, her eyes scanning the ruined state of the road and its vicinity.“A Player.” Responded Xavier, though he didn’t deign to give any explanation.“He called you the Nameless Knight.”“So you were eavesdropping?”-Leiu“...”Anne didn’t respond, she looked both surprised and curious. For her, and many others, the terms Nameless Knight and Dark Knight weren’t synony

    Fortunately for Leiu and co, they didn’t have to travel far to reach a town, in which they bought another carriage. Of course, as she was someone from a prominent Vampire family, Zeno didn’t lack for Gold. However, Xavier was pretty adamant on getting a small and efficient carriage, sparing no thought to comfortability or luxury. After the monk’s attack, they decided to spend the night. Zeno, Xavier, and Anne weren’t as involved in the fight, but the former two were still wounded, therefore, a brief rest would do wonders. There’s something I need to tell you, Leiu. Before he could sleep, the Divine Goblin appeared. His form was noticeably blurrier, so much so that Leiu couldn’t properly see his face. I don’t know if it’s because of your soul or an unexpected side-effect of absorbing part of the Origin Well, but my curses are… different. Well, different isn’t the right word, but… “I’m listening. What’s going on?” I don’t have as much control as before. On the body, I mean. It’s

  • Re; Hell Gate   Chapter 520 The Collector

    Due to the unexpected and inexplicable experience last night, Leiu couldn’t sleep. Still, the very concept of exhaustion seemed inconsistent with his current borrowed body. He suspected that it was an after-effect of the Lost Virtues, especially after hearing Inos’ warning.An extreme sense of urgency dwelled within Leiu, so much so that he voiced no complaint when he boarded the carriage and saw Anne Dravenham there.The young vampire followed him with her eyes, seemingly prepared to talk back in case he said anything. However, much to her and Zeno’s surprise, Leiu sat down in silence. He spared Anne only a quick glance before gloomily looking out of the window.“Everything alright, Leiu?”Zeno had prepared arguments for Anne’s presence, so Leiu’s complete lack of reaction caught her off-guard.“Not really. I don’t have much time left…” He gave a momentary look to Anne before adding, “My body is soon about to be ready. I don’t know what it’ll happen if I’m not around when it happens.

    AlyaronZeno took Leiu and Anne to a fancy hotel close to the central and most bustling part of the city.The famous colosseum in full-view, so were other big buildings that belonged to global mercantile companions or international guilds.However, right after getting set up, she quickly left along with Xavier. She wanted to have that meeting with the Consortium as soon as possible, which was a good thing for Leiu.The downside of her departure was that Leiu was left alone with Anne. Rather than renting individual rooms, Zeno chose somesort of a spacious and luxurious suite that had multiple rooms amongst other things.Anne, hands on her thighs, sat straight on the wide leather couch. Her eyes were on Leiu, who stood near the big glass window.They were on one of the top floors, so the outside view was spectacular. “Once my mother learns of what you did, she will hunt you down.”Hearing this, Leiu snorted, “Are we back at this again?”“I’m just issuing a warning.”“I don’t need it.

Plus, it won’t be long before the Hell Gate appears.”Vins didn’t argue back, he solemnly nodded once. Although his relationship with Leiu was bad, there was no need to provoke him at any given opportunity.They were enemies, and the fact that Leiu actually came back to get him meant that, to some extent, his words had convinced him a bit, at least enough to let him come along.“In the meantime, we’re going after Void Rifts.

    Leiu spent quite a long time in the Studying Room. Unfortunately, the available information about the Reverie Comos was lacking and unsatisfactory. It just told him what he already knew: The Reverie Cosmos was a separate plane of existence in Mundus, not unlike the Harrowing. It was accessible only to those with ‘high’ spiritual energy, which was simply not enough to go on.Although, even if Leiu knew how to enter it, he wouldn’t go there, at least not now.There were much more pressing matters than delivering Lost Witch to the Reverie Cosmos. The Hell Gate was about to open and he needed to be there when it did. Once he was done with his pondering, Leiu went to talk to Sumbus Darrar.“So?”The old man was in the ‘Living Room’, gobbling down the delicious feast without a care in the world.After wiping his oily lips, the Necromancer awkwardly laughed,“Her name is Emilia. She told me she doesn’t remember what happened… only that you killed her and then she woke up after we killed

    “It’s over…”The Elven Chevalier had a look of relief and fatigue on her face. She kept holding on her blade as she stared at Tenebris.Unlike her, he looked absolutely miserable. Whether it was his dirt-covered pale-face, his sweaty and greasy hair, his trembling and bloodied hands, or his shredded clothes.“Hold on. I’ll heal you.”With slow steps, she approached him, unaware that a tiny pit of flesh crawled on the ground and leapt at her arm.“Watch out!”Tenebris saw it first, but his warning came too late. Kusomi, panicking a bit, tried to the flesh but it dug into her skin and then went inside her body.Her body instantly flashed with a silver light, an attempt to use overwhelming energy to force out the worm-like flesh.“Ah…”Kusomi fell to her knees and let go of her estoc, her body convulsing and her mouth coughing blood. The light emitting from her body grew dim and then disappeared.As her body wobbled and then fell to the side, the elf- with all the strength she could mus

It wasn’t Primordial Darkness or simply an overabundance of Darkness energy. This was something else entirely.Before anyone could speak, innumerable lightning bolts pierced through the ‘darkness’, shattering like glass and revealing an empty space not unlike space itself.There were star wars that were far, far away, but most noticeably, the majority of them were caught one supernova after the other.Leiu and Sumbus felt immense dread as an overwhelming pressure assaulted them, locking them into that empty space. Leiu tried to use the Darkness to protect himself but, surprisingly, it wouldn’t come out. It seemed unresponsive and ineffective as if something was sealing it away.Sumbus fared even worse as h

    “Huff… huff..”Leiu was gasping for air aboard the ship’s deck. Anne was hugging him, relieved that he made it out alive.Sumbus was also sitting down, his complexion paler than usual. Before returning to the surface, Leiu closed the Void Rift with the Primordial Darkness. He had less than 20% health remaining and his mind was still befuddled.“I’m… okay, Anne.”“Drink this.”She forced him to drink three Health Potions, which did help with the physical wounds.“Leiu.”The Mermaid Queen stood a couple of feet away.

Admittedly, she and Leiu weren’t the best friends, but they did help each other in the ‘past’.“We could’ve killed Him.”

    Tenebris sat up and proceeded to wear his bloodied and dirty clothes back.‘I’ll be damned. You actually went through with it. I’m impressed, Tenebris.’While pretending as if he didn’t hear the voice, Tenebris looked to the side. Kusomi also properly sat up and stoically looked at him.“It hurt a bit. Other than that… it wasn’t anything special.”‘Hear that, dumbass? No chance you’re getting laid a second time.’After being pressed by the voice, Tenebris eventually relented and had sex with Kusomi. It wasn’t anything dramatic, and from beginning to end, it barely lasted an hour.Although he got to enjoy the soft body of a beautiful elf, Tenebris wasn’t that happy. He had hoped the two of them would ‘feel’ differently amidst the action and pleasure, but no such thing happened.The virgin elf was inexperienced, so he took the lead, but having sex like that didn’t really mean anything.

    With the help of the Dark Archmage’s spell, Leiu and Anne were able to dive underwater and breathe. The Void Incarnate, which wasn’t even a living creature, simply jumped down and transformed into somesort of a hideous hammerhead shark.Leiu really wanted to question it as it never said it could change its appearance, but now wasn’t the time.The four swam deeper and deeper until the Void Rifts were in sight. They let out ominous purple glows, all haphazardly scattered everywhere.Albeit not at full speed, Leiu was able to swiftly reach them and used Primordial Darkness to forcefully close them down. Oddly enough, no Voidspawn came out to attack him. Only Void Riftss were present, which, rather than fortunate, felt like a bad omen.Thus, as they kept descending closer and closer to the seafloor, Leiu got rid of any Void Riftss in the way. It was a tedious but not overly-taxing process.Eventually, however, they reached the two, aforementioned, big Void Riftss. They were massive, but

    “When is the Hell Gate going to open?”After talking with Elena and the rest, Leiu left Black Mountain City altogether. He looked at his newest companion, the fearful Sumbus Darrar.Startled, the old Necromancer looked at the red moon hanging in the sky. Night has yet to fall, but the moon stuck out like a store thumb. It was still waxing, albeit at a very slow speed.“Two weeks, at most.”“And where’s the gate?”“I… I can only locate it when it is about to open.”As he saw the suspicious stare of the Dark Knight, Sumbus vigorously nodded his head while waving his hands around. “I swear, Dark Knight! I do not dare lie to you!”Seeing how the old man behaved, it was hard to think of him as the one from the legends. He was like an obedient dog, following Leiu and doing everything asked of him.In fact, he was sensible enough to notice Leiu’s relationship with Anne, so he treated the Vampire with the utmost politeness and respect.[User, a suggestion: Eliminate the Administrator in-]‘I
