Everyone glances at Jordan; he is the sort of vampire that does not require an introduction. In this little community of legendary monsters, the rank of an elder is one that holds such a high status. Given the fact that most vampires do not survive to be 300 years old, especially those who are intoxicated by power; as a result, they beco targets of the church and are hunted down with extre precision.
Jordan now held a large folder filled with paper in his hand, which included all of the nas of the people that were now accessible. He wasn’t a mber of the House of Ghal, and it’s safe to say he was also an examinee in so sense as well. However, as an elder, he was given the opportunity to lead a team of vampires alongside him to take this exam, and given everything he knew about the exam, it was critical that his team mbers get their shit together.
As a result, the room beca quiet as he made his modest, calm, and solemn entry; naturally, he chose the largest throne available around the circular table, indicating his supremacy over the common fellow nobility. With his hand sorting the papers, he looks around, as if scrutinizing everyone in this location—so he recognized from stories or prior contacts, so he didn’t know much about.
"Good! Everyone’s here. Nice, nice. I assu you have all previously introduced yourselves to one another. I opted to arrive last, about five minutes late, so any significant introductions will be unnecessary either way from here on out. I just need each one of you to take a seat, and please, for the sake of Eos above, co closer and listen to what I have to say."
The other vampires didn’t really contradict him, and neither did rciless, who was simply going with the flow at this point. As a result, he grabbed a seat alongside Lucy and Anastasia, who were seated close to Hector and Substance, as everyone ca closer to Elder Jordan.
"Alright, so of you may be wondering why there are more than five team mbers here. The answer is simple: each team actually has six mbers. According to what I’ve been told, the team leader will not be included in the normal five. To be honest, I’ve already completed the requirents to join the House of Ghal. But, in any case, we won’t get into further depth about it; my final duty, however, is just to keep an eye on you all and guide you through this exam; unlike you all, I am being examined for leadership abilities, but you’ll be tested on everything else except leadership."
At that mont, Alucard was about to talk, as he said.
"So are yo...
But stop him and say as such.
"Let finish talking, then you all can ask your question."
"..."
"Good! Moving on, just to make sure we’re all on the sa page, do you know why we’re here, why everyone wants to take this test, or why the examinations are necessary in the first place? If so, race your hands now or forever hold your piece."
When Jordan said this, not one person raised their hand. He nodded in agreent as he swiftly described everything.
"Heheh... what a bunch of fucking liars; so of your parents undoubtedly sent you here knowing precisely what sending you all the Primix dinsion ans, well, hahaha... if you co back alive, of course. Anyway, I see so of you don’t have a lure bracelet; that’s significant; you’ll need it to profit from that fucked-up place. Fortunately for most of you, one of the Overseers handed each team leader a box filled with twenty lure bracelets apiece. If you don’t have one, co for it, take one, and sit your assess back down so we can continue this eting."
With those words spoken, the whole goth club stood up, including Alucard and Zane, as Anastasia walked ahead to acquire one for herself and Substance. And when everyone was prepared, Jordan continued to explain everything in a professional tone, but in a lethargic and monotonous tone as usual.
"Wonderful, wonderful; with that on, you’ve satisfied the criterion to beco a spawn, lesser or greater; now before any of you, liars ask what a spawn is. I will be the bigger asshole among you scamrs and play your deceitful mind ga of playing dumb, and explain everything to you in detail: Your welco, by the way; what a waste of fucking ti this will be, but it is, what it is, I suppose."
Jordan then went on to clarify further.
"So, according to what I’ve heard from my parents, who are also mbers of the House of Ghal, the primax realm is teeming with very strong creatures known as spawns. Spawns are the first living beings to exist; they are even older than vampires. In any case, for reasons unknown to , these bracelets attract these spawns; nevertheless, for reasons also unknown to , procreation is nearly impossible for them. So spawns can reproduce with others, although it is unusual to discover one that can do so. However, these spawns can transmit their pure, 100% lineage by infecting you with their blood. Imagine vampires, but much stronger."
"Anyway, the first test is to see how strong we are and how we adjust to pressure; the ultimate aim is to escape. If we pass the first test, we will be transported to the second level, which is outside the test grounds, and to the regions of the Primix dinsion, the ho of the ancient ones."
"There, we shall be pursued by these spawns due to the lure, and if you are lucky, you will encounter one that considers you worthy of their lineage. And if you manage to survive the monsterfication process, basically becoming the sa thing they are, but on a smaller scale, you will be free of Eos influence as you transcend vampirism."
"That is the primary reason any of us are here; we all want to escape Eos tyranny and dumb rules in so way. Eos can only govern vampires, not spawns, but what can control us are our abomination parents; even so, I’d rather have a spawn urge to beco stronger than an abominable monarch tell who I can and cannot sire."
"It’s the sa reason my father encouraged my mother to beco a spawn, and he’s now asking to beco a spawn so that I may avoid these regulations. I’m not sure whether this drive for freedom is why you are all here, but I think we can all agree on one thing: we need to pass this exam."
"Either way, that is all I know for now; perhaps you have another motivation for joining the House of Ghal. But I want to leave the vampire community and beco sothing more. As a result, I’m here to cleanse myself of his vile blood while also reaping the blessings that I’ve received from it by virtue of being born a vampire."
"That is why I need you all to collaborate with one another and myself; if we follow my strategy, I can guarantee that each and every one of you will pass this exam with no sweat at all and will also gain a lot of benefits down the line, saquats or no saquats if you all are reborn either way, caring about the saquats will be completely beneath you at that point, nothing more, nothing less, do we all understand because I ain’t going to explain myself a second ti?"
Jordan explains this to everyone there: so were aware of the monsterfication process, so wanted to get their hands on corruption, others had other intentions, and so, like Jordan and the Goth Club, desired to be free of Eos dominion over them. And of course, there were a few exceptions, such as rciless and his servants, who had no idea what was going on and had been brought in by an outside force. rciless being here, thanks to Beatrice.
Essentially, becoming a spawn ca with a slew of crazy ass perks that rciless was completely unaware of; hell, he had no idea that these creatures even existed to begin with. As a result, this was too good of an opportunity to pass, and he responded as such.
"I second this opinion; you have my cooperation and my servant’s cooperation in the matter as well."
rciless announced, attracting attention to himself, while Jordan looked at the unknown blonde. This was his first encounter with this specific vampire over the course of his long life; the others he had either heard about or t at so point in his life.
As a result, he looked at the information on the paper he received from Nyrtha, which explained the basic information and identities of his team mbers, and he noticed sothing that surprised him.
Na: rciless
Clan: Michellian
Recomnder: Grand Duchess Beatrice Higimatra
Ichor: ???
D.O.B: ???
Age: ???
Title: El Dorado (Randomly by Nrytha: The reason is his hair is the sa color as gold, no deeper aning)
Sire: ???
Pureblooded: ???
Nobility ranking: ???
’Isn’t this guy basically a blank slate, but his recomnder is one of the Overseers, as well as one of the most powerful vampires or forr vampires in history?’
’Hmmm... n, n, n... how troubleso these types are usually the most unpredictable. Well, oh well, it doesn’t matter either way; if an Overseer recomnded him in the first place, he’s definitely capable.’
’On the other hand, everyone here is as capable, if not more so; with this team, I will undoubtedly pass the exam. Okay, first things first, let establish a ga plan.’
With this in mind, Jordan’s emphasis quickly returned to rciless, as he stated.
"rciless, that is your na, right?"
"Yap, that is ."
"..."
"..."
"You have a really cruel and equally bizarre na; I like it. Ok, then, tell , rciless, what do you bring to the table? I can’t design a strategy for this exam unless I know what I’m dealing with; you don’t have to reveal to the whole scope of your Ichor. Just give a rough notion, and I’ll think of ways to use it to our benefit."
"My Ichor ha?"
At this point, everyone’s ears perked up with interest. Especially Albedo, Lucy, and Ophelia, who were the most interested of everyone here.
"Well, I haven’t given my Ichor a na yet, but I can do a number of weird things with it; I call it Black Tail, and this tail is tied to on a deeper level than one might believe. With Black Tail, I may consu other biological entities, steal their genetic mory, and apply it to myself. This allows to obtain the genetic compounds of other species, regardless of race, and apply them to myself, or combine two or more genetic information to unlock a new trait. So basically, it’s a biological type; the simplest way to explain this ability is as a chira on steroids or a chira with bloodline options."
rciless revealed her cheat-like abilities to everyone here, causing them to beco shocked; even Jordan was seriously astounded by his cheat-like abilities, eliciting a response from Lucy in particular.
"Wait, rciless, no cap; on a serious level, can you really alter and copy genetic information?"
Lucy inquired, casting curious glances at rciless; the other mbers were also intrigued; if what he stated was accurate, rciless would be heading to an area teeming with active otherworldly monsters, akin to a feeding ground or shopping center for soone like him.
On that topic, another girl was casting equally interested glances at rciless as she spoke from a distance, an unknown notion crossing her thoughts at the ti.
"Prove it."
"Ha?"
rciless spoke as he looked up to et Abadis’ gaze, who had her palms on her chin as if she were staring at an intriguing little creature.
"I said prove it; you can do that, right?"
Abadis inquired, not in a harsh tone but rather with intense curiosity about sothing. But, at the sa ti, rciless responded as such, taking advantage of the chance to obtain so high-quality genetic information for his own use, of course.
"Sure, I can prove it; however, I will need two different species of sothing alive, or it can be dead too, for to analyze, fuse, and alter the changes if necessary, of course."
rciless inford Abadis, who nodded and took out two of her monster embryos, or rather alien eggs, from various species across the cosmos that she has collected.
"I suppose that’s fair; after all, I’m expecting you to provide a demonstration on this subject. Okay, give a mont to prepare these babies."
"Sure, no problem."
With that said, everyone watches onward at Abadis, who began to explain her power.
"Well, since rciless has explained his powers to everyone and Jordan is most likely going to ask each one of us the sa question, I might as well make this a live demonstration of what I can do." First and foremost, my Ichor is called "The World of Evolution," and I am capable of creating planetary bodies from nothing at all, providing them with everything they require for life to exist; even taking out necessary things that normal humans need to survive; in short, life can prosper on my planet as it is not reliant on the concept of a habitable zone."
"And I have complete control over these planetary bodies I create, which ans I can accelerate the evolution of billions of years in a matter of seconds." Whatever planet I create will always produce monstrous creatures that will listen to everything I say. At present, it takes approximately four days to make a single planet, but the end effect is well worth it. I can also travel to whatever planet I wish and create gateways between them, going as far as to manifest a portion of those planet environnts onto another planet, stretching at a maximum of 500km. And best of all, this domain of sorts can move along with , although the ratio of movent isn’t a flawless 1:1, sad to say."
"But anyway, enough talking; let just show you."
With that stated, everyone is watching Abadis do her thing, and what she does next is just incredible.
Abadis started to extend her hands out. Reality began to warp around the entire room, and the fabrication of existence itself was being bent and played with according to her will. She began to shape and remake all that was currently in this room according to her desires, and then that’s when it happened.
"Actualize all! World of Evolution; Planet T7584, Region 849."
The private room began to shift as the steel flooring turned into a soft ground full of black muck or tar-like mud, big purple trees appeared into the distance as the walls began to beco transparent in the distortion, and a strange blue fog surrounded the scene. The night sky was full of stars, but there were three moons; one was destroyed, and the remnants circled the other two, producing lovely luminous ring-like structures surrounding them. Vast dragon-like animals that resemble the cross of crows and undead dragons soar across the skies in vast packs, the smallest being vastly larger than the largest sky scrapers on earth.
"Currently, I have transferred us all to one of my planets by realizing our whole existence on this planet itself; it is essentially teleportation, but on a conceptual level, by transferring our concept of being to sowhere else. Of course, this doesn’t exhaust at all, but doing the reverse, well, to be honest, that does drain sowhat. But certainly, in all these worlds teeming with life, I am their creator; the more intelligent ones all referred to as Mother, and that is basically my power in a nutshell; however, I can’t summon these two monsters that I am about to summon for rciless on any other planet but this one since it requires the thick and poisonous atmosphere here to survive."
"Fortunately, vampires don’t have to breathe for survival, and thus being here has no impact on us; nevertheless, if a normal human were around, they would die imdiately. If not by the dangerous environnt containing 63% phosgene and the remaining 37% being a cluster of other deadly substances, then breathing in these dangerous blue poisonous fus created by these trees will undoubtedly suffice. But moving on, rciless, co here."
Abadis motioned for rciless to approach her, which he did by nodding and heading towards Abadis. On that note, she glanced at the two bubble-like embryos that remained still in her palms. Abadis then expelled the bubble-like embryo from her palms, like a set of flower petals blowing in the wind. And as it moved away from the two of them, the embryo inside began to inflate, and a blue light began to glow around the expanding bubble carrying life within it.
The light beca exceedingly intense, prompting most of them to shield their eyes to block away the blinding intensity of their sparkling luminescence. However, the light quickly faded as the sound of sothing huge landing hard in the black, tar-like muck could be heard.
And there it was for everyone to see, everyone reacting differently to the creature—no, the pair of alien-like monsters in front of them.
"Oh my god, what hell are those things?"
Anastasia said it with astonishnt and a note of disdain.
"You got to admit, though, the snail-looking thing aside, of course, that black gator-looking monster looks tough and equally cool as fuck."
Alucard said while looking at the black aligator-like monster that was towering over them.
"As amusing as ever, blue one."
Jordan stated this with a smug and mischevious smirk on his face. On the other side, Abadis seed to be much more irritated than when she almost began a fight with Lucy. After all, she began to yell with imnse disdain at Jordan, who only grinned at her rage, as if feeding off of her negativity.
"Shut up, you scamming asshole!!"
"That’s really cruel! You’re still mad because you lost... egh blue one?"
"I swear to Eos above Jordan, I will conceptualize your cheating ass to the edge of the universe if you don’t shut up."
"Hehehe... you may try blue one; I won’t stop you, but just so you know, my amazing self has been to locations far beyond that. As such, a small and insignificant universal difference like that ans nothing to , kid."
However, before Abadis returned to Jordan, for the sole purpose of hurling more vehent accusations.
Albdeo ca in and interrupted Abadis, as he simply stated to her.
"Sister!! Simply ignore him, please!!"
"UGHH!! Why did we wind ourselves up on the sa team as this asshole? Tsk ok."
"Hehe... you all are just a treat fuck around with, and you are as composed as I rember you to be, pink one."
Jordan stated this to Albedo, who just disregarded this delinquent elder vampire who is only serious when sothing business-related is on his radar.
At that point, rciless stopped paying attention to everyone else around him and began to focus his attention just on Abadis, as he inquired with great interest, his tail trembling in excitent in the sa way a dog does when it is happy about sothing.
"So what the hell are these weird ass alien-like monsters anyway?"
"Agh, yes, on the right is sothing I dubbed the "Black Gatogran," while on the left is a rather unique alien-like monster that my little baby cousin nad the Tagamar."
Abadis proudly stated, apparently pleased with her babies and their strange ass nas.
"A Black Gatogran, and a Tagamar, well, I can officially say this is going to be the weirdest thing I have eaten thus far in my life."
rciless spoke with surprise and perplexity, giving those creatures a strange expression. The monster on the right side was a 30-ter-long, massive alligator-like creature with no eyes. It possessed thick and spikey scales that resembled an otherworldly black tal fashioned to seem like scales, and they wrapped over its entire body, producing a natural armor of sorts. Behind this creature were four massive scaley and spikey tails, with similarly spikey and energizing black mace-looking tips with red lighting coming from each of them.
However, this black gator creature had one distinguishing feature: on its back, it released a viscous black mucus that was much darker and thicker than the muck beneath its feet. And it was as if a blight, or better yet, a stein on reality, had appeared. A pair of massive and terrifying black mucus-like wings occupy its back, with the wingspan being twice as huge as the gator monster’s giant monster body itself.
On the other hand, the Tagamar, to be more specific, was more eerie in appearance. It was a massive, shimring, blue-disfigured snail. It was as enormous as the Black Gatogran, with the only difference being that it was floating in the air, and its entire body was covered with hundreds of nacing-looking tint and black eyeballs, each of which gave rciless a very terrible feeling for so unknown reason.
And while he stared at each of them, Abadis inford him as much.
"Well, rciless, do your thing; I want to see these so-called genetic fusing powers of yours for myself."
