Drip. Drip. Drip.
Aiden stared as his fingers, dripping with blood. A look of horror in his expression. All around him were shriveled coprses. The atmosphere was gloomy, further accentuating the gory sight.-[Mission Completed!]-[You have recieved +10 Blood drachmas]-[You have devoured 35 litres of blood] "W-What have I turned into?!" he burst into tears... Lancelot Academy..It was a prestigious school to breed young magis, being the number one in Halowe State. It was located in a 1st tier city called Gold Spring city and was the most powerful force there, apart from the Viscount Manor. However currently, the gates of Lancelot Academy was wide ajar, welcoming a rapid stream of visitors. This was because, today was the day of the Academy's admission. An event that only happened once a year. The Academy's landscape was ridiculously huge, so was the building structure. Like any other Magi Academies, the admission was often free however, it came with an entrance test.Failing the entrance test meant losing the chance to become a student. The entrance test was being hosted in a spacious field inside the Academy's premises. There were rows of spectator benches surrounding the field, making it look more like a football stadium. Gathered around the field was a crowd of teenagers, numbering up in hundreds. These were those who showed up for the Academy's admission. If they passed, that meant they would become students of Lancelot Academy. "Decorum please" a calm voice resounded in the ears of everyone present as a figure dropped from the skies. It was a smartly dressed middle aged man with glasses, standing on a floating brick. "That's Teacher Krillin" "You mean the Magi who has the Sound mojo?" "Ahh, no wonder his voice rumbled in my head" "Soo strong!" The crowd exploded into a wave of discussions. "Tsk. Sound mojo huh? nothing impressive" Rio who was amongst the crowd on the field, snickered. Mojos were the unique abilities of Magis.According to Public knowledge, a Magi could only be entitled to a single mojo. "I will like to welcome you all to the Academy's 25th Entrance exams. For this entrance exam, I will be the super visor" Teacher Krillin said calmly, however his voice echoed clearly in the heads of everyone present. "This entrance exam has two stages. Mojo assessment and combat. Allow me to explain what the mojo assessment test entails" "By placing your palm on this orb.." he snapped his finger, causing an azure glowing orb, the size of a bear head to materialize. ".. It reveals your mojo, as well as the talent of that mojo. Though let me tell you something crucial. Talent doesn't mean potential. So even if you end up getting a mojo with a weak talent. Don't give up. Train hard and you will even surpass those with high talent" "Now begin. You can take turns touching the Mojo assesment orb" after saying this, Teacher Krillin floated to a corner. "Heh. Here I come" a guy wearing baseball cap grinned as he went over.Touching the assesment orb, a ray of light exploded, forming the below words. *Mojo: Metal manipulation* *Talent: Pawn tier* When the spectators saw this, they exploded into a fit of booings. "Tch. What an utter trash!" "Pawn tier talent? Seriously? I bet he won't make it into Lancelot Academy" "Tsk. Get off from the assesment orb trash!" The guy with the baseball cap smiled sadly as he distanced himself from the assessment orb. He didn't blame the crowd for their insults, afterall, a pawn tier talent was the lowest type of talent. "Hope this goes well" a girl with twin pony tails went over to the assessment orb... Minutes passed with several of the aspirants going over to touch the assessment orb, to get their mojo talents analysed. Along the line, three hundred people turned out to possess pawn tier talent.Two Hundred turned out to have Rook tier talents. Hundred had Knight tier talents. Thirty had Bishop tier talents. Finally, it was Rio's turn. "This will be a piece of cake!" he grinned with confidence as he placed his palm on the assessment orb. A ray of light exploded, forming into a series of words. *Mojos: Ability Intuition & Time Manipulation* *Talent: King tier!* Silence. Everybody present, including even Teacher Krillin gawked at Rio, like they were staring at a monster. T-Two mojos? and a king tier talent?!.. Once Aiden got back to his apartment, he had a cool bath so that he could clear his head. But no matter how hard he tried, the image of him with bloodied fingers and mouth couldn't just leave his head. It was seriously driving him insane! Just what kind of monster had he turned to?-[Host is now a Vampire]as if reading his thoughts, a series of words appeared on the system's panel screen."Vampire? What's a Vampire?"
-[The world's dangerous predators. As a Vampire, host can grow stronger by devouring essence] "Essence?" -[Yes. The main chip that fuels the life force of all living things. By drinking blood. You absorb blood essence and grow stronger while at it]"Grow stronger you say? but I don't feel a single damn thing has changed!" Aiden clenched his fist. Suddenly, new words appeared on the panel screen.-[HOST INFO]-Name: Aiden Skyfall-Alias: ? ? ?-Race: Innate Vampire Progenitor-Class: Versatile..-[HOST ATTRIBUTES]-Strength: Lv. 1-Speed: Lv. 1-Agility: Lv. 1-Physique: Lv. 1-Energy: 10/10.NOTE: User can use blood group B blood to increase Physique stat.

He tried leveling up the *strength stat*-[This action costs 1 litres of blood. Do you want to proceed?]After giving the system a mental go ahead, a new notification came in.-[Your Strength stat has experienced a level up!]-[Continue level up? The next level up will cost 2 litres of blood!] 'Yes' Aiden gave the go ahead.-[Your Strength stat has experienced a level up]-[Continue leveling up? The next level up will cost 4 litres of blood] 'Yes!'-[Your Strength stat has experienced a level up]-[Continue leveling up? The next level up will cost 8 litres of blood]-[Your strength stat has experienced a level up]-[Continue leveling up? The next level up will cost 15 litres]-[Insufficient amount of AB Blood] "Hmm.." Aiden whistled, clenching his fist. He could feel a volatile energy stirring within his muscles. "Let's see if this system really works!" he licked his lips as he left his apartment. Fortunately, a tree happened to be a stone throw away. Arriving besides the tree, Aiden leaned back a bit, drawing his clenched fist back before sending it thrusting forward. BAAM!Silence. Everybody present at the venue of Lancelot Academy's entrance exam stared at Rio like he was a monster. "T-Two Mojos?" "And they are both King tiers!" "I heard the country's number one Sentry has two mojos. But they are just king tier and queen tier talents" "Do you mean to say this kid is even more talented than the country's number one Sentry?" Hearing the audiences discussions about him, Rio grinned smugly. "I'm the best in the world! before my talent, everybody is just trash!" "W-What a pleasant surprise. To think we have a talented youngster in our midst with an innate talent of dual mojos" Teacher Krillin said, barely able to contain his excitement. Innate talent! Unlike normal talent, Magis with innate talent were destined for great things. Talent usually referred to the mojo a Magi wielded. But innate talent.. there was no ranking to it. If a Magi had an innate talent, then they were destined for great things.That was their fate, already set in stone! Since
"Yeah! Yeah! Pummel him!" "That's what I'm talking about!" "Loser! get up and fight!" Entering the battle rambo building, Aiden winced in discomfort at the loud noises the audiences were making. Due to being a Vampire, his senses were more enhanced than humans. As such, the noise was amplified a hundred times over. It was as if someone placed a megaphone besides his ear and was screaming into it. "First time here kid?" the middle aged man who was walking besides Aiden, smiled when he read his body language. "Hm. I don't know how to address you sir" Aiden replied. "My name is Xavier. What's yours?" "Aiden" Mr. Xavier grinned. "Alright Aiden, let's get you booked up!" Leading the way, the duo arrived at a counter. "I want to book a fight" Mr. Xavier said to the female behind the counter. "Oh? what battle stage please?" the counter lady asked. Mr. Xavier observed Aiden for a bit before responding. "The Beta stage""Alright. Let me prepare the booking. Is your fighter a Mag
"Nightshade Royal Academy?" Aiden repeated with skpectism. "Tsk. Tsk. It is an Academy owned by the Nightshade Country" Mr. Xavier grinned. "Say what?!" Aiden almost had an heart attack. "You aren't kidding withme right?" he asked suspiciously. In this current world, there were cities, counties, States, dukedoms, kingdoms, empires and continents. The Sentry Association was an organization that had jurisdiction over all Magis. Their counterpart were the Mercenary Fraternity, that often lived in the shadows. However, there also existed noble and royal power that ruled over their own regions in the world. Starting from the bottom were the Lords. They often ruled over hamlets and villages. Then were the Barons who ruled over towns. Viscounts were nobles and rulers of cities. Counts were nobles who ruled over counties. Earls were nobles ranked higher than Counts. They ruled over states. Dukes ruled over Dukedoms, Kings ruled over Countries, Emperors ruled over Continents.As for
"This is the Academy?" Aiden mumbled as he alighted down from a black limousine. The sheer size and decor of the Academy's building was beyond anything he could ever imagine. Taking a look at the premises, he noticed that all the students came in expensive looking cars. From the grandeur of their movement and the dignified air surrounding them, even an infant could tell that they were all nobles. "Pheew. I can do this" Aiden took a breather as he sauntered towards the school building. At the lobby area, there were four platforms with plaques besides them. Freshmen Sophomore Junior Senior "Hm. According to my card. I am at the class D for the Freshmen Students" Aiden mumbled to himself as he followed a group who were headed for the platform with the *Freshmen* plaque besides it. "Though, I wonder what the platform is used for?" he mumbled with curiosity. As if answering his question, a male noble amongst the group stepped on the platform.As soon as he did, the platform got
Not long after Nyx departure, a new teacher walked into the Class D. It was a female with dark spots underneath her eyes. Her lips were covered in black lip gloss and she was a devilish beauty. Comparing her to the maid at Xavier's house, Aiden shook his head. When speaking of natural assets although the Teacher before him was slightly above average, she didn't come close. "Good morning Class D! I am Lisa, your Geography Teacher!" "Oh. She has a beautiful voice. Not bad" Aiden mumbled to himself. "Hm.. Let's begin our classes then. Today's topic is going to be the distinction of regions.." Lisa began her teaching, which she did for over thirty minutes. If not for her beautiful face, many students (mostly guys) would've dozed off because of just how boring the Geography class was. Very soon, Geography class period ended and the next teacher took over. This time, it was a slender man with delicate skin and feminine features.When the females in the class saw this teacher, their e
Aiden couldn't believe what he just heard. Xavier was the Country's protector?! "So, are you related to him in some way?" Charlotte asked. "Something like that. Hm? how did you figure that out? don't tell me your mojo is telepathy?" Aiden gave Charlotte a wary look. "Pft. If I had such a mojo, I would be in Class A, not Class D" Charlotte giggled. "As for how I did it, I kinda compared you both skin tone. Not to mention that you both have a dangerous vibe around you" Charlotte explained. "Ohh" Aiden nodded. Grabbing the syrup can, he splayed it on the french fries before tossing it into his mouth. -[Ping! You have ingested a harmful substance!] As soon as the system sent this warning, Aiden felt a sharp pain in his stomach. It felt like a scorpion was clawing at his guts. "Ugh!" he groaned as he held his stomach in pain, sweat trickling down his face. "Are you okay?" Charlotte sharply noticed the look of pain in his face. "I.. I think I ate something poisonous" Aiden stutte
"Mold beta to connect to our mojo?" the Students murmured to themselves. "Watch" The Mojo Analysis Teacher brought out his palm. "Fire gauntlet!" A burst of brilliant flames wrapped his hands, reaching his elbow. "This is an hex I casted. My mojo is pyrokinesis or flames manipulation. By molding and connecting the beta force to my mojo, I was able to cast this hex" The flame gauntlet dispersed. The Teacher continued. "However for novices like you with limited amounts of beta force, casting hexes would easily sap away most of your beta force since you still haven't learnt control. And when that happens, your opponent will exploit such an opening to take you down. So it is advised to save your hexes for last, when you are confident in taking down your opponent with that single hex" "Now. To connect your beta force to your mojo recquires meditation. An intense one at that. Picture your beta force as a bowl of soap and your mojo as a sponge""Then try visualizing that sponge soaking
Aiden stared at his clothes which were now soaked with the blood of the shriveled up corpses lying around. Lick. He moved his tongue, licking up the blood stained on his upper lips. For strange reasons, the blood taster sweeter than even the sweetest gelato he had ever eaten. Staring at his blood soaked clothes, he groaned. Anytime his bloodlust grew, a bloodbath always followed after. He had to think of a way to deal with his huge apetite to drink blood or risk alerting the Sentries or the LEA. Sitting down on the ground, he began going through his latest loots. -[You have Completed Mission; Defeat All Your Enemies] -[You have been rewarded with +5 Blood Drachmas] . . -[BLOOD DRACHMA] -35 .. -[MOJO(s)] -Essence Absorption (original) -[SKILLS] -Blood Essenbe Absorption -Rock Gauntlet (lv2) (+) -Pervert (buff) (lv1) (+) -Sand Bullets (lv3) (+) -Optical Laser (lv3) (+) -Double Damage (buff) .. -[BLOOD TANK] 1.

As soon as Zoram dropped this sentence, he made his move disappearing from his current position, only to appear above Marie as he slammed the Soul Banner towards her head.. "Shit!" Marie tried using her base Vampiric speed to dodge the sudden blow, only to realize that the soul barrier seemed to project an invisible pressure that not only possessed a powerful concussive force that was threatening to crush all the bones in her body, it also possessed an effect on his psyche, instilling a deep rooted fright in her. However Marie was once a powerful Soldier back during her time at the Red Sharks gang. Although she could ignore the effect on her psyche, the bone crushing effect caused her speed to reduce by twenty percent. Bang! Marie had barely escaped the attack range of the Soil Barrier when it finally landed, creating a powerful fissure on the ground, the rebound force knocking her into the air. "Hngh!" wielding the pole of the Soil Banner with both arms like an axe chopper, Z
"What the hell did you do to me?!" Marie watched in horror as the darkish green mist rapidly spread all the way to her knees. Wherever it passed, it corroded the flesh and melted the bones. It was an horrifying sight to see. "Filth. Next time you'd do well not to mess with my Feind race. Many of you think that we are just some peddlers with shallow parlor tricks that allows us to raise the dead" Zoram sneered as he slowly walked towards Marie. As for those from the other races, they tactfully chose to distance themselves from him. Perhaps it was due to the long time they spent in this Hidden Realm with meridian blocking chains, but memories of the evil methods of the Feind race were finally begin to surface. "My Feind race cultivates Necro force.. the most extreme yin of all forces in existence. Reviving the dead is just one of the shallowest demonstration of what we can do. Why do you think we are the strongest race in Utopia?" "Braggart" the female Elf sneered. Ignoring her
"Your hair.. your face.. your lips. . your eyes.. they all look so fake. Your BBL doctor should've done a better job" "Your hair.. your face.. your lips. . your eyes.. they all look so fake. Your BBL doctor should've done a better job" "Your hair.. your face.. your lips. . your eyes.. they all look so fake. Your BBL doctor should've done a better job" These words kept on echoing in the atmosphere as all who were present gawked at Marie in shock. The other race members were one thing. But the Elves? Their eyes were literally spitting out flames! The Elves were known to be the most prideful of all the seven races. They were known to take pride in three things.. their privileges, their strength and their looks. Now that Marie dared ridicule their looks, it was akin to signing up a death warrant. However contrary to all expectations, the female Elf remained calm in the face of Marie's goading. "Filthy Vampire.. although I have no idea why you want to provoke me, I won't give yo
Puchi! Retracting her hand from the chest of the Myraid Beast race member, Marie crushed the bloody heart in her grip before clicking her tongue, not bothering to conceal the disappointment in her tone. "Weak" "What the hell do you think you are doing?!" it was only after the corpse with a gaping hole on the chest collapsed to the ground, did the crowd finally come to their senses. Whether it was Marie's sudden arrival or her sudden murder, it came completely unexpectedly and caught them all by surprise. "Do you want to give it a go?" Marie grinned, exposing her fangs. "Who the hell do you think you are? did General Jazz send you here to torture us? is that what this is all about?" this time the one speaking was the Myraid Beast race member with three white stripes on his forehead. "You must be the leader?" Marie squinted her eyes. She could tell that this particular person commanded more respect amongst the gathering. "I.." before he could reply, Marie destroyed his Meridia
"What do you think you are doing eh? It isn't time for a break yet!" One of the Silver Rangers in charge of supervising the laborers remarked in the native dialect of the Winged Panda Man race while he swung down the whip he held. Whallop! A dry shriek rang out as the victim's knees buckled, kissing the rocky surface of the floor. It was actually a Humanoid with a large potato nose and a wide mouth with webbings on his hands and feet. The Myraid Beast race member was about to stand up on his feet when the Silver Ranger ruthlessly swung his whip down. However before the whip could land on its target, a pale skinned hand caught it in place, causing a few droplets of blood to slip past their palm. "How dare you!!" the Silver Ranger became enraged upon seeing a new face dare oppose his discipline. Ignoring his remarks, Red Rose gave the end of the whip she was holding a powerful tug, forcibly drawing the Silver Ranger closer to her before landing a powerful kick on his chest, c
TITLE CARD: ABOUT AN HOUR AGO.. "Stay still" Red Rose held the neck of a Winged Panda Man as she stared straight into his eyes. This particular Winged Panda Man was actually one of the Elders who were in support of Prince Eragon. However the current Elder lacked the regal air displayed during the strategy meeting that had just concluded. "Yes" the Elder replied in a robotic manner as he immediately stood still. Nodding, Red Rose eyes took a shade of red as she revealed her sharp crystalline looking fangs, immediately sinking them into the neck of the Elder. Gulp. Gulp. Gulp. The body of the Elder trembled from how intense Red Rose was sucking his blood, however Red Rose strong grip held him in place. At first everything was alright, but the more Red Rose greedily gulped down his blood, the more the flesh on his body began to shrivel. Just as the Elder was about to become a sack of dry skin and bones, a voice rang from behind Red Rose, interrupting the young Vampire's feedin
"We are here" Nimara who had been at the vanguard suddenly stopped walking as she shut her eyes briefly in concentration before opening them with a nod. "You mean to tell me that the infamous Ancestral Tomb is hidden inside this.. ordinary looking pond?" Oge coughed sarcastically. They were currently in the middle of nowhere, trapped within a wide expanse of soil. A few distance away was a pond.. running with muddy, dirty water. Ignoring her comment, Nimara gave Prince Eragon a look. "Only the bloodline of the Chief can open the Ancestral Tomb" "Ohh" Aiden suddenly slapped his palms on his forehead like he just recalled something. "Everything makes perfect sense now..!" At first Aiden was confused when he learnt about the Ancestral Tombs because things weren't just adding up. If Nimara was General Jazz queen, why was it that he was yet to enjoy the benefit of the Ancestral Tombs. Now Aiden finally got this answer puzzling him at the back of his mind. Feeling the curious star
"This.." the newly arrived Kingsguard was about to put on airs when he noticed the familiar head on Aiden's palm, as well as the headless corpse besides him.He and his colleague had been both tasked to confront Prince Eragon during his march and apprehend him. A few moments before, they were both racing each other and now, his colleague was nothing but an headless corpse?! Shing!While the Kingsguard was still reeling from the shock, an ear piercing sword cry rang out as a sharp saber light stabbed towards him.Oge made her move.Bang!The runic symbols swirling besides the Kingsguard swiftly merged together to form a shield, blocking the sudden attack. The force of the collision caused cracks to appear on its surface.Whoosh!Oge disappeared from where she was standing, appearing mid air the next second as her saber stabbed towards the eyes of the Kingsguard. She was both merciless and direct.. not giving the opponent the opportunity to counterattack.Clang!The runic shield trans
It was unknown who let the cat out of the bag, but two explosive news rocked the whole Hidden Realm.. The first was that, General Jazz was still in a secluded retreat and the second was actually more explosive than it's predecessor.. The Crown Prince was nearly assassinated within the castle walls!!! No matter how General Jazz loyalist tried suppressing this news, they couldn't stop the several tongues wagging within the shadows. For a long time, the mere mention of General Jazz was like a butcher blade hanging over many of their throats. He was a tyrannical figure who wasn't merciful when it came to punishing those not on his side. Unfortunately no matter how dissatisfied they were, nobody dared revolt. However with the release of these two explosive news, the whole Hidden Realm experienced a transformation. "You shouldn't be parading the streets. By the decree of General Jazz you are to stay within the confines of your homes" a Winged Panda Man race member who was clad in worn
