Vlad’s eyelids twitched slightly before finally opening, revealing his intense, dark-red eyes that now glimred with renewed vitality. His body felt heavy and residual exhaustion lingered within every muscle, but the severe pain from before had faded considerably.
The Depravita exhaled deeply, assessing his internal condition carefully before murmuring to himself, "By tomorrow, I should be fully recovered."
A small smile appeared on the Depravita of Wrath’s lips as he sensed the revitalized energy coursing through his veins. Turning his gaze slightly, Vlad’s attention shifted to the small yellow cat nearby.
Jormungandr’s expression was intensely focused as he wielded a delicate magic blade, skillfully slicing open the hardened skull of a Vorotallicae Sage.
The small yellow cat’s movents were precise and surgical, carefully extracting the brain without damaging it and placing it carefully into a specially prepared container. Around him were nurous similar containers, each holding more brains and hearts harvested from their defeated foes.
The grisly scene, though grotesque, only widened Vlad’s smile. In each harvested organ, he saw progress—a direct path toward his evolution into a True Depravita. Every Sage-level brain and heart ant one step closer to achieving the power necessary to save Freya.
Suddenly, Vlad’s expression sharpened, and his eyes narrowed as his spatial perception expanded beyond his residence walls. His consciousness detected thousands of unfamiliar figures walking through the streets and courtyards of the Korokor Fortress. These new presences had clearly arrived while he slept.
"They are reinforcents sent from the Golden Sky Fortress," Jormungandr said quietly, noticing Vlad’s reaction without raising his head from his delicate work. "They arrived a few hours ago. Almost all of them are Guardian-tier warriors, but each is equipped with specialized armor designed to synchronize their energy fields, vastly increasing their durability and collective strength."
A glint of understanding flashed in Vlad’s eyes as he absorbed this information. Indeed, rely three hundred Sages were far from sufficient to sustain prolonged battles against the relentless Voroe assaults. Even small losses accumulated rapidly, potentially eroding their forces over ti.
Ordinary Guardian warriors would stand little chance in a Sage-tier confrontation, which was evident from the Voroe Guardians’ catastrophic losses. But with specialized equipnt and sophisticated energy formations, Guardians could be significantly empowered, explaining why the reinforcents had taken so long to mobilize.
Vlad was pleased to see this critical improvent in their defenses, yet his expression quickly hardened once more, focusing on his primary goal. His piercing gaze returned to Jormungandr, and the small yellow cat imdiately understood the unspoken request.
Without hesitation, Jormungandr took out a small vial containing a dark, viscous liquid, its surface shimring ominously.
"I already prepared a test batch while you were unconscious," Jormungandr explained solemnly. "Consu it and analyze its effects thoroughly with your AI Chip. If it works as intended, I’ll proceed using these harvested organs. Otherwise, I’ll need to refine the formula."
Vlad nodded firmly, imdiately adopting a ditative position. He steadied his breathing and centered his mind, ensuring his body, energy pathways, and ntal clarity were at peak condition. Then, without hesitation, he swallowed the potion in a single gulp.
The dark liquid reached his throat, but instead of traveling down into his stomach, it instantly phased into his Soul Dinsion.
A violent tremor erupted within his soul.
The Soul Dinsion had been constructed using the Law of The Light, a structure diatrically opposed to the chaotic energies of The Darkness contained within the potion.
Vlad’s face turned deathly pale as the collision of opposing forces sent searing pain radiating throughout his being. Yet he didn’t lose focus. Summoning every ounce of his formidable willpower, he guided the volatile liquid toward the radiant Depravita Seed suspended high above in his soul’s sky.
The majestic seed remained unmoved despite the terrifying chaos swirling around it. Instead, it emitted a powerful devouring force, greedily absorbing the dark potion. Bit by bit, the chaotic energy integrated into the Seed, fortifying it steadily until nothing remained.
Relief surged through Vlad’s heart, and a broad smile stretched across his lips. The experint was successful. He imdiately transmitted the analyzed data recorded by the AI Chip directly to Jormungandr.
The small yellow cat’s eyes flashed with excitent and satisfaction. Without wasting another mont, the duo nodded simultaneously and began their ticulous work, determined and unified in purpose.
Over the next few months, Vlad’s routine beca simple yet ruthlessly efficient. He imrsed himself in his studies as a Runemaster, tirelessly striving to craft the Legendary-Tier Demonic Cage Rune Formation. Concurrently, he consistently consud the dark potions prepared by Jormungandr, steadily increasing the power and density of his Depravita Seed.
On the battlefield, Vlad’s fury beca an unstoppable force. He deliberately channeled the pure essence of wrath, allowing its raw intensity to guide every strike. His brutal rampages shattered enemy formations, leaving chaos in his wake and carving openings that Graecia forces exploited without rcy.
Together with the newly arrived Guardian reinforcents, Vlad’s presence beca pivotal, dramatically bolstering the stronghold’s combat capabilities.
This routine carried on for six relentless months.
One day, Vlad sat quietly in his residence, consuming yet another freshly refined black potion. Outwardly, little had visibly changed—his muscular build remained solid, his expression as cold as ever. Yet internally, massive transformations had occurred within his body and soul.
After fully assimilating the latest potion’s energy, Vlad’s eyes sharpened. Calmly, he issued a ntal command.
"System, perform a scan."
Almost imdiately, a chanical voice echoed clearly in his consciousness-
