rciless, Hector, Substance, and Anastasia proceeded to move toward the strategic room, where his team mbers should have been assigned. It was where they had to convene for one hour to discuss their ga plan before being transported to the Primix dinsion.
At that point, rciless began to employ his obscuration magical nature to morph back into a vague concept while on his way to his crew.
He did this not to hide himself but to bring attention to himself, the reason for which was rather simple. After rging with Black Tail, his third eye evolves as well, and as a result, he gains new powers. Instead of just seeing things that cannot be perceived in the regular sense, rciless’s current Mind Eye can now delve deeper and scan for formidable foes, although the conditions needed to see just how strong soone is when compared to him. As such, they first need to look at him for a total of ten minutes.
And, as predicted, all eyes were on him, and Black Tail began to study their power based on the age of their auras, their intensity, or any other distinguishing feature that may be problematic for him to face.
The scan takes 10 minutes; however, with thought acceleration active, the whole body scan was completed in less than two seconds in real-ti. This capacity to accelerate the pace of cognition also increases the speed of activation, causing extensive analyses to be significantly shorter than the usual duration.
As a consequence, the results were now in, and Black Tails proceeded to compose and distribute a detailed report in his head, depicting all of the potentially dangerous people currently here and how he now stands when confronted with them. And when he saw the result, he believed the power differential was pretty unjust. After all, practically everyone here was his senior, ranging from 10 to 554 years.
’As of right now, 34 individuals here are your match, so weaker than you by a small amount or slightly, if not overwhelmingly, stronger than you in terms of overall power. The rest are too much for you to defeat right now; so of these 34 people have a good probability of winning, ranging from 78% for you on the lower echelon to a 42% chance of victory for the ones stronger than you within the recomnded 34.’
’On the other hand, the others are too strong for you to go up against on your own; your chances of winning among the weakest of the rest are 17% to 0%! Suggestion: Avoid these possible threats at all costs. Note! Devour and acquire more biological samples to boost your strength and chances of winning.’
This was the outco of scanning everyone present and monitoring with their curious and careful gaze; nevertheless, the individuals who were currently here were not as threatening as the fifteen specific people who stood out the most. top of power in this large group; ironically, a maid. She was all the way at the back, giving rciless a suspicious gaze as if he already knew what he was doing. She was easily the most dangerous person here. Unlike the others, she was so superior that her aura was the strongest while it was conceived to a great degree, yet the odds of prevailing against that monster were so slim that the percentage of winning against her was more of a statent than a statistic. "If you just want to commit suicide, you just need to fight that thing."
’What the heck is that thing? Just what kind of monster is this? She exudes the sa aura as a father. Yeah, if Father is a boundless ocean without a bottom or a surface, this monster is like a boundless sky you can never reach; despite feeling vastly weaker than him, this monster disguised as a maid had enough power to kill everyone here in less than a second.’
rciless contemplated this for himself, but he quickly abandoned it and opted to turn off his magical abilities. This was a formidable adversary he couldn’t face; therefore, he and Black Tail reached an arrangent at that ti.
’Do not get involved with that thing under any circumstances.’
It was as simple as that; everyone else, including those he had nothing but contempt for, deserved a better fate than fighting a monstrosity of that type. This was not him submitting to an enemy; rather, it was a tactical retreat to increase his chances of survival; as he is now, he would need to devour a large number of monsters in order to collect genetic samples to increase his power; it was as simple as that, given that was the requirent to beat her; he needs to live to eat another day in order to face her.
rciless continued to stroll without raising a fuss. On the other hand, the maid with glasses continues to gaze at him, a little angry, if not impressed. And from there, a lovely girl with her face concealed in a black veil approached her and spoke.
"Whats the problem? Ophis, you do realize your face is kind of scary right now, right?"
"Agh, Lady Ella, pay no mind; nevertheless, that tall and muscular man at the front just analyzes us thoroughly; as things stand now, he already has an advantage over all the others; knowing your opponent and where you stand among the vast majority in a competition like this is quite beneficial. With the knowledge he has gathered, he has ample ti to prepare, despite being one of the weakest here. He is the sort that approaches fights knowing he can win and uses intelligence to counter situations he considers unfavorable; this alone tells he is a Michellian; those bastards are masters of prep ti."
Ophis comnted to Ella, who returned her attention, only to look at rciless and comnt accordingly.
"Is that so? Hmmm... interesting, an Ichor that can analyze, ha? Kind of weak but useful at the sa ti."
But what Ophis said next took her off guard.
"He isn’t utilizing an Ichor to study us; I would have observed that as well within my Rule Field; his approach is quite unconventional, but I suppose that’s to be expected from a group that caters to bio-type Ichor users. That guy is like a biological supercomputer, if not a living parasite; he analyzes us all by using his tail to examine us. Even then, that creature isn’t an Ichor; it’s a parasite that has rged with him at the atomic level, which ans even his atoms aren’t normal, so we can’t apply standard physics principles to sobody like him; even his aura, as feeble as it is, has deadly consequences just being around it. Fortunately, I have already blocked out the negative impacts from around us, but that guy’s aura has the passive power to corrupt others around him. As of right now, everyone’s sanity, with the exception of and you, has drained by 3.1%, and the number is only slowly rising."
Ophis made a statent that pleased Ella, who turned her head slightly and questioned her further.
"Ohh... so he is like a mother, egh, a corrupt user, right? How rare. As far as I know, Mother is a mber of the House of Ghal, and she stated that only those who transford via rebirth had access to the power of corruption. Although she stated that certain people are naturally born with it, they are the most ruthless group, so much so that if a human was born with this power, he would be classified as a spawn rather than a human. Well, good for him, I guess; he already has sothing I’m trying to get my hands on and understand, and the people here are certainly interesting indeed."
"That is true, my lady, but he is dangerous in his own unique manner; yet, soone born with such high and strong natural corruption from birth would undoubtedly grow to the position of a high nay an Emperor class abomination in the future, unlike , you, and even your mother. We’re attempting to artificially get the prohibited power birthed only from primordial chaos through the rebirth scenario, which occurs only during the rite of passage in the House of Ghal."
"This man has possessed it since birth; therefore, if he does rise into the ranks of an outer spawn, it will not be an ordinary rebirth but rather a remarkable ascension in which he grows in power imnsely via monsterfication. That alone is an advantage we lack, and his knowledge is unparalleled in this sector, as those with natural corruption can do so crazy shit after the first ascension alone. In a way, with his absurdly high corruption, I don’t see him as a vampire at all; he is sowhere between the lines of a spawn and a vampire, a hybrid of sorts, and even so, he is slowly crossing the threshold of vampirism at the mont, 47% vampire and 53% sothing else entirely; in short, he walks abnormality."
Ella’s eyes widened as she heard this; unlike the others here, she had a general idea of what would happen once they reached the Primix dinsion. It is an area where monsters will either murder and consu you, or if they believe you are worthy of their blood, they will gift you enormous power by transforming you into their offspring, becoming your abomination parent as a result. Of course, Ella desired this power; corruption was just chaos in its purest form, similar if not superior to the chaos used by the vampire king. If you have chaos on your side, the power boost you receive is so imnse that it seems like you’ve been reborn all over again, especially if you’re lucky enough to beco a chosen Hier. This is essentially soone who has been converted by one of the twelve creators, also known as the originators.
As a result, this was rather wonderful to hear; corruption is a power she would kill for, and the Michellian clan is known for being daring fighters. And with that kind of power, it would have been more logical and believable if this person had been born into their clan rather than the Michellian clan. Loviatar vampires are known as the most chaotic of the 21 clans. After all, they are a clan of unhinged murderers.
And if Ophis hadn’t been the one to confirm that this one-of-a-kind Michellian vampire possesses natural-born corruption, she wouldn’t have believed it; after all, according to her understanding of corruption, it works on emotions, like surrendering your mind to do evil within without hesitation, to fight it, will only harm the user. Because corruption is as natural as eating or drinking for those who have it.
To be corrupted ans to be broken on both a ntal and physical level, as this is the cornerstone of what defines a monster. Not caring about anybody or anything, using everyone and everything as toys and pawns. It was rather shocking to think that soone like herself, who has done so many heinous things in the past, could not even comprehend what corruption is like, but this man could.
"*sigh*, very sad indeed; it sort of injured my dignity as the heiress of the Loviatar clan, flesh princess, egh, Lady of Tornt, and bringer of anguish, my ass. Well, my mother advised not to envy individuals who are better than in sothing that I am not, as it will only lead to my downfall, but it still hurts thinking about it."
Ella spoke to Ophis, who responded in kind.
"Don’t put yourself down, my lady; you are still stronger than him based on my readings."
"That may be true, but he has sothing that will make him stronger than everyone else around him in the longer run; his foundation is unmatched in my opinion, as far as I can see at least."
"That is true; still, how do you wish to approach annihilation or connection?"
Ophis asked.
Ella responded.
"Connection, of course; mother said that people like him are the forefathers of the future to co, assuming friendly relations are a must; that is more beneficial in the end anyway. Furthermore, he is soone who is loved by chaos; even my mother’s comprehension is not as thorough as that of a naturally born practitioner."
"Understood my lady."
Ophis replied to Ella, and the two of them proceeded to their assigned rooms.
