What surprises is his skillful manipulation of aura. With my Omnipotent Eyes, I watch the fat vampire expertly wield his limited aura, not letting a single bit of it go to waste despite his small reserve.
Such mastery over his aura... This fat vampire is as strong as I was a few months ago. Heck, I didn't even have this level of refined control back then. I only had the upper hand because of my blood techniques.
Suddenly, the fat vampire begins to move in a srizing way, smashing the moles with his mallets, his eyes closed, while his body maneuvers swiftly, almost as if he's dancing—despite his extrely chubby fra.
"ARRGHHH"
With a sudden ear-splitting scream, the tension in the air suddenly reaches its peak while the ga cos to an abrupt halt as the loud sound of a whistle reverberates across the room.
There is a clear winner, one that people didn't expect to win. Of course, it ain't easy to win six hundred million credits—fools.
"SIR MORDRICK IS THE WINNER OF THIS ROUND! LET'S GIVE HIM A ROUND OF APPLAUSE!"
An old wealthy-looking vampire who seems to be the owner of the arcade shop announces, raising the fat vampire's hand in the air, declaring him winner.
[Player A—12,000] [Play B—23,500]
[Winner—Player B]
Looking over at the other vampire, Player A, I feel pity for him while shaking my head at his stupidity. He is lying down on the ground, looking very pale and deprived of blood, but that's the least of my concerns. Due to him trading his life force for more aura, he looks extrely shrunk and old like a vampire that has lived past his life span.
'This is one of the reasons why vampires need to learn how to use Ki.' I think inwardly, letting out a sigh.
The next mont, I walk towards the vampire, crouch on my toes, and then place my right hand on his wrinkled forehead.
Due to my actions, a lot of people look at , wondering what I am about to do. So of the guards behind the fat vampire try to intercept but the fat vampire stops them for so unknown reason. But my actions raise a lot of scrutiny.
Abruptly, I start to send my Ki into the vampire's body. Gone are the days when vampires would die just because they traded their life force for more aura. Since the discovery of Ki, which is said to be the manipulation of the life force itself, vampires and many other races don't have to worry about these issues because everything around us is a life force.
From the air we breathe, animals, beasts, and even the core of the planet itself brims of life force, we can always refill our life force.
However, it is not as easy as it may sound. Heck, only a handful of people know how to harness Ki.
'It should beco mainstream in the future.'
The wrinkled skin of the vampire slowly starts to regress, showing a more vibrant and smooth skin even than before. Seeing that the vampire is back to his full condition, I stop sending my Ki.
At this point, a lot of people have already gathered around, flashes of cara entering my eyes. But as usual, since I expected sothing like this, I already tweaked my appearance a little bit before I decided to heal the vampire.
"How did that happen?"
"What did you do to him?"
"Please, can you teach how to do that??"
I hear a lot of voices behind , so even trying to tug on my clothes only to get stopped by the fat vampire's guards.
Slowly, the slender vampire starts to blink his eyes before finally opening it, looking at with a startle. He quickly raises his upper body, supporting his weight with his hands pressed against the floor.
"Bro…"
"Don't speak about it. You have a debt to pay anyway," I say, an evil grin playing on the corner of my mouth. This is even the reason why I helped him in the first place. I didn't help him out of sheer kindness. I simply helped so he could pay up his debt, fufu.
"Why… Why did you save ?" The vampire asks again, this ti hatred flashing in his eyes. I couldn't care less.
Feeling bored of his rants, I get up and face the fat vampire, giving him a light now while shoving the slender vampire towards his guards. Surprisingly, he also gives a bow with curtsey.
'Surprising…'
"What's your na? My na is Mordrick Tepes."
"My na is Logan," I answered, using a random na that ca to my mind.
"Just Logan?"
"Yes, just Logan," I answer. The fat vampire looks at weirdly because the aura emanating from right now is at the vampire noble level. And as a vampire noble I was supposed to have a family na. However, this is all a facade, I simply suppressed my aura down to the vampire noble.
"You seem to have a strange fire in your eyes. It's sothing I recognize so much. The zeal to win right now and then huh." The fat vampire says with a chuckle.
"What do you think?" I grin.
The next mont, the fat vampire walks forward towards the Whac-A-Mole machine slot, picking up his mallet.
"Do you know what I want from you in case you fail?" Mordrick suddenly asks, resting on the Whac-A-Mole machine, caressing it.
"Let guess, you want to teach you that thing I did before, right? Where I helped this fool recover his life force."
"Correct! I want you to teach that. But I actually need things from you. The second is that you must reveal your real background if you lose."
"Deal." I give an answer. There's nothing much there to think about. It's sothing that I have already thought about.
"And If you win, I will add an extra hundred million credits, making seven hundred million." Mordrick declares again with a smile on his face.
