《The Unique 24 Hour Soul(Dropped)》 Prologue Hi, my name is Ryu Tepes. I''m 21 years old living a rather dull life. I live in a small town in Michigan which I lived in all my life. I have two parents my mom Hitsumi and my dad Rick. My dad is from Romania. My mom is from Japan they both are loving somewhat overly loving I might add. I moved out a couple of years ago after graduating from high school. Not exactly knowing what to do, I got a part-time job at Nullmart it pays 15 dollars an hour. I live in a cheap apartment, so I''m set for now bills are covered along with my anime subscriptions and buying books of course. I have a few friends we hang out and watch Anime or play some Video Games usually. Sometimes on occasion, we go to a burger joint for a Burger and a couple of drinks usually. When I''m not hanging out with my friends, I usually just read I don''t have many hobbies besides anime and reading only moderately play video games. I don''t particularly like to go out and do things except like I said I hang out with my friends and we go out on occasions. My personality is gentle yet firm. I had to harden myself a little because I used to be bullied mostly because of how gullible I used to be, to fight back I had to toughen up mentally. I''m attracted to girls right now, but I feel if I were a girl I would like guys so gender indifference of sorts, with a weird stand on my preferences well enough of my background and various personality defects for now and to the beginning of my story. Today was a day like any other day. I was working the morning shift today hoping to read some books back at home. I was walking home from work today the surroundings started to change as I was walking it looked like I was in a white space with a small building at the end. A guy appeared in the building I just walked into,What the fuck is happening? Thisday is the beginning of when my life drastically changed.Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.
"Hi, My name is George the God of the check-in station that decides whether you go to Heaven, Hell or into the cycle of Reincarnation." "You have died due toyour soul being too strong, or should I say too unique for your vessel and after 21 years of dealing with it you died." "What the fuck I had finally become content with my life after my overblown chuni phase, and this shit happens." I sighed and took a deep breath and finally stopped ranting at the God. "What are you going to do with me then?" ''Well, due to your unique soul we''re sending you to a fantasy world with a new body that can handle and adapt to your spirit. There will be some issues that will come with it though." 1. Every 24 hours your body will shift between two species. 2. Skills, Training, and Level-Ups achieved will only affect the said body. 3. Your first body will have Mage/Mana based classes and abilities, your second body will be able to handle Warrior/Qi-based levels and skills, and your stats will change accordingly as well. "This will be like the games you play in your world, but it''s real of course. These will be your starting status screen."

"Do you have any questions?" "Well, I''m a little irritated at the stat changes and obvious gender differences. I will probably get used to it though. I''ve come to terms with me dying and soon to be reincarnating. My question is why not do the whole reincarnation normally?" "Consider it a bonus for being reasonable with me aside from your short outburst. Now let''s send you on your way but before that," I was fading out while he said something about choosing something or another it started with a P I think. Oh well, It doesn''t matter I guess let''s make this life more meaningful than my last one. Georges Untypical Day George P.O.V. It was a typical day at the check-In station mountains of dead people like usual. There''s always some blasted war killing massive amounts of people in at least a couple of the worlds if not more. I''m exhausted I swear if one more person fucking yells at me for dying or is complete delusional.I''m going to curse them or reincarnate them like a snail or something I don''t fucking care. Ok, let''s see who is next going over his list Ryu Tepes: Died due to his body exploding spontaneously due to having a body that could not handle his Unique soul. Thistrait is fucking rare these sort of things happens only every thousand plus years. His world is also one of the few realms where Science and Technology are their lifelines. Which means nothing supernatural, things like magic, Non-humans or anything like that doesn''t exist. That makes him even rarer.Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions. Time to invite his soul here. Maybe I will help him if he''s not fucking delusional or an emotional wreck. He enters the building I did my typical spiel. He looked angry and ranted for a bit then all the sudden calmed down. Finally a reasonable person I thought. So I decided to help him out and decided to send him to a fantasy world with a body that could handle his soul. I would usually reincarnate him usually. Unfortunately, there are a few quirks because of his spirit. So I explained to him his quirks and then showed him his status screen ¡ª the only question he asked why I didn''t reincarnate him usually. So I told him why of course. I decided to end this, so I was about to tell him about choosing a Patron Deity, but I accidentally sent him away while I was talking about it.It''s terrible if he doesn''t select a Patron Deity he will probably get the default one based on his soul it would probably be her. That Goddess only thinks about playing around all day and never get''s anything accomplished that''s at least somewhat serious. Giving her charges weird blessings. Poor guy but I''m not allowed to be involved anymore. Soul Start (1) I suddenly woke up In what appeared to be a forest. It seemed to be night here, but I felt wide awake now. I don''t remember falling asleep though it''s probably due to the new body, yeah let''s go with that deciding to brush it aside. The first thing to check out my new body, I was in the first one today if I remember it was the Vampire one first. First things first let''s see if I''m wearing anything thankfully I am. It was a basic green robe with shoes and everything. Thank god I didn''t end up in the nude like some of the stories I''ve watched or read. There was a pond nearby, so I decided to see what I looked like I had pure white skin with short black hair with some bangs hanging over my left eye. I was thin, but not to the point of being of looking frail. I pretty much would look like a stereotypical pretty boy vampire if I weren''t wearing this ugly green robe. My stomach growled all the sudden, and a warning appeared in front of me.
Blood Lust: You must drink blood, or else your Stats and Health will decrease and you will eventually go into a mad frenzy after two hours of not getting blood, and you will attack anything determined to drink its blood.
Crap better find some animal or something fast. After about 30 minutes of searching, I found a wild Giant Boar. Ok, let''s see to get skills I have to perform actions to get skills right ok let''s try that whole thing of trying to shoot energy out of your hand.
Dark Blast Level 1 Acquired(Cost 75 MP). Fires a blast of dark energy at the target. I shot the explosion at the boar weakening it. If I remember afterdiluting
.
Vampire Seduction Level 1 Acquired (Cost 20 MP). Seduces target so you can suck its blood.
So I used Vampire Seduction on it, followed by me sucking its blood. Now that''s done, let''s try to scope out my surroundings. So I looked around the forest for a couple of hours. Looking around for sapient life, When suddenly a warning came up.
Hostile Presence Detected.
I looked behind me, and I saw what appeared to a silver-haired some dog Beast-kin girl attacking me as she was attacking me as I was backing off to dodge her I took notice of the basic leather armor she was wearing. Why the fuck is she attacking me? I calmed down to think. Let''s see going by what I know Vampire''s and werewolves are usually enemies so apparently dog based Beast-kins are pretty much the same thing as a werewolf I guess. Ok, let''s see if I can try to reason with her. "This is awkward I don''t have much experience speaking to women outside of work" I realized I accidentally blurted out my thoughts.Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on the original website. She stopped her next attack after hearing this "She yelledHEY BOY WHAT CLAN DO YOU BELONG TO?" "Clan?" I responded somewhat confused. She sighed what "Vampire Clan do you belong to?" "I''ve never been a part of any clan I spouted back." "Let me see your status screen Boy." Unlike most stories, you have to show your status screen willingly to the other person. So I currently can''t see hers. So I showed her my status screen. She looked over it and said "While most of your status has question marks behind it. I have never heard of a Tepes clan at all." "Well, I''m a unique case. I have no family here." "So you are a Progenitor then?" ''Probably not" I dismissed her thought entirely. She dazed off for a while muttering to her self. Finally seeming to come to terms with it she said: "My name is Sarah Locks of the Wolf Beastkin clan nice to meet you Boy." "My name is not Boy you saw my status screen right?" "Of course, I did, but that''s too much to remember so your name is Boy since your younger than me." "Wait I''m younger than you?" Aren''t you around my age maybe a bit on the small side though?"Wait did you call me small?" She looked pissed all of the sudden I to try to calm her down the situation "Let''s just forget I said that."I said, "I can show you proof ok." She said not seemingly convinced by my answer. "Fine, I said dejectedly." She showed me her status screen.

It''s been about 20 hours since I woke up most of the rest of the day was Sarah explaining things about this area to me and also hunting more beats which Increased my Level 3 as well as my Dark Blast and Vampire Seduction skills to level 3, After I was done hunting and returned to her. She looked at me and said, "Who is your Patron Deity?" "What''s a Patron Deity?" I replied. I feel like this is similar to our conversation earlier when an announcement appeared not again I sighed.
Due to waiting 20 hours without choosing a Patron Deity one has automatically selected for you.
Lucy is now your Patron God.
I feel sleepy all the sudden. I must stay...... Soul Start (2) I hear someone calling out to me "Ryu, Ryu, Ryu." I''m suddenly aware it looks like I''m heaven except it was way too pretty looking. I see a girl who is really beautiful and mature looking Especially in certain areas. With long violet hair and pink eyes about my height my male height that is with a purple dress it''s made from a top-notch fabric. Time to get this business started looks like I have to start this conversation. I sighed and asked, "Who are you and why are calling me here in this strange place?" I already knew it was about that whole Patron Deity deal, but I decided to go with the flow. "My name is Lucy the Gorgeous Holy/Evil Goddess of Rarity/Beauty. My duties are making things pretty and acquiring I mean protecting rare people like you with unique circumstances." "Wait how can you be a Holy and Evil Goddess and what was that about acquiring me?" "Well, certain Gods accused of me certain things, but pay no mind to that." I see she is going to be a pain. She brushed that aside along with that verbal slip from before. Lucy said ignoring my obvious sour mood. "I''m going to give you a few blessings right now." What are they I asked?" "Just the usual blessings." "What are the usual blessings?"
I Woke up to the buzzing of a new announcement or should I say announcements.
Blessing of a Mandatory one-hour talk with Lucy once a week.
Blessing of Beauty, Your Mana/Qi will Glow with a Brilliant Radiance.
Blessing of ?????????.
What the hell is wrong with this goddess I said out loud. Is that my voice? I guess I''m in my second body. I feel a lot more strength. At the same time, it takes a bit longer to process this whole mess. It''s great I haven''t become an idiot or anything like that though. Sarah wakes up next to me with a look of puzzlement on her face. "Who are you?" "It''s me, Ryu," I replied. "How can that be you''re a girl and an entirely different species than him?" "I don''t know I''m myself I guess." That logic worked with her she was seemingly convinced. "The problem is my stats are different, and I''m back at level one." "I can feel your abilities are more like mine she said except that one thing." "Wait was that last part you said I didn''t quite catch that nothing she said?" I decided to go over to the pond to look at my reflection in this body while Sarah was muttering to herself again.Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings. I was a lot shorter in this form. Still a bit taller then Sarah also my chest was huge which was the opposite of her chest. Focusing away from my chest, for now, I had long wavy dark red hairwith a matching set of Dark Red Scaly ears and light purple eyes. I was wearing an outfit that was a tad bit embarrassing It was a wearing a dark pink gi with Dragon symbols on it and a Dark Red Dragon Tail sticking out of my butt, but that wasn''t the problem it was that my cleavage was showing back to staring at my chest again. When I hear that loudmouth, she finally snapped back from reality tsk. "YO KID COME BACK OVER HERE."She yelled. "OK FINE I WILL COME BACK OVER THERE FOR FUCKS SAKE" I snapped back. I guess she decided to call me Kid now. "Why am I so easily angered now?" It''s a pain to think about it Damn it. "I wasn''t able to help much in your previous body due to you being a Mage, but I the Great Sarah will teach you the path of the warrior and bloodshed as we head to a nearby village. Be prepared for some hardcore training and lots of blood and guts were going to be killing a shit ton of beasts also.'' It''s been about 6 Hours from then it was a lot easier leveling up with this form and Learning skills. I made it to level 5 due to Sarah. I''m not going to tell her that of course. I learned the skills.
Massive Blow Level 5. Deals an enormous amount of damage delivered with a punch.3x damage with Qi.
Aura(passive) Level 5, Attack and Defense skills enhanced by being enhanced by Kill.
Draconic Body(passive) Level 5. makes your body more resilient,Deliveringdamage increases also.
PenetrateLevel 3.Gets by defenses. Has the potential to gouge people''s organ''s out depending on the defender''s resilience.
We were almost out of the forest when we could tell that there was a Mage obliterating a hydra with a magic skill. I couldn''t know what magic it was, and I think it was a he. Sarah, Heir to the Locks Clan. My Name is Sarah Locks, Heir to the NOBLE LOCKS CLAN. WE ARE THE GREATEST CANINE CLAN AND WOLF BEASTKIN CLAN IN GENERAL. My story is that I''m the mostl person in my age group''s village which is why I''m the Heir who is chosen by forcing the rest of the young adults in our clan to submission through a battle royale. The others were pathetic can''t they even match me. We wolf Beast-kin automatically get the advanced class of Berserker at level 10. It was a blessing by a God. We all choose him as our Patron Deity of course. We are not like tricky like Fox Beastkin. We don''t howl as much as the Coyote Beastkin on except on full moon''s we can''t help that, Were not subservient like Dog Beastkin. The one thing we all equally hate is The Vampire Clans and Feline Beastkin though. Feline Beast-kin is annoying and bossy. I might have "accidentally" stripped them nude in various places tying them up to poles and such. Vampires though they have been killing us Canine Beastkin for as long we can remember burning are villages annihilating us with dark magic. So in turn, we destroy and wipe as much of their kind as possible, but they just come back up like weeds. Fortunately, we have a high fertility rate. Because of that, we are at a standstill though.
Day 1 I was currently hunting in a forest on my way back from wiping out some Vampires. I sensed one all the sudden one appearing in the woods. He was a couple of hours away from,I headed over there as fast as I could to kill it. I finally reached him, and I tried to kill him from the shadows, but I failed. I was about ready to attack him again while he was standing there when I heard him blurt out. Thisconversation is awkward I don''t have much experience speaking to women. I was shocked. No one has acknowledged that I was a woman before ¡ª especially a Vampire there to prideful for that. They also think we are just vermin that needs to be erased. The feeling is mutual of course though. I yelled at him asked him what clan he belonged to,He was confused about it. Thisgodess is going to be a pain. He wasn''t a part of a tribe, so he told me. I couldn''t trust him, so I asked to see his status screen. He willingly showed it to me. A lot of his information was hidden with question marks by them. I did see his last name though. I''ve never heard of the clan Tepes. Was he a Progenitor? I was nervous they were supposed to be the strongest vampires and the beginning of a group. He dismissed it with some fancy-sounding reason. I believed it instantly. Why would I question something like that? He asked me why I called him Boy. I told him the reason why I called him Boy was because that he was younger then me it was simple; He dared to call me small I know I look young but still. So I showed him my glorious Status.This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings. He then asked me to explain this world we are in and the place we currently are at, I wasn''t good at this kind of thing. I was more of a fight first and think later person. I did it anyway. The more I looked him he was pretty attractive accept for that ugly green robe he was wearing. I suddenly had the urge to make him submit to me and become mine. I had these thoughts as he was hunting. It was almost night again. Oh yeah, I remembered something suddenly I forgot to ask him. He was yet still confused. He suddenly fell. He must be tired. So I decided to sleep by him.
Day 2 I woke up to some girl talking. I wondered who she was so I insisted on advice. She said she was Ryu, the Boy from yesterday. She was a Draconic Beastkin. I was confused. How can this girl be a Vampire who is a male and also be a Beastkin girl? I thought. He used some compelling words that made perfect sense. She then explained her stat change and Level reset to me. I used Sense, and I noticed that she was similar to me at Level 1. Except for that Large chest which irritated me. I was talking to myself for a bit about how I felt about this. I spoke to her finally. I called him back over. I decided to call her Kid that''s going to be a lot easier from now on. She snapped at me how adorable. He/She would be mine the only difference was as a male I was attracted to him. As a girl, she was like a cute little sister. I always wanted a little sister. Either way, I will make that Kid mine. In her current form, it was my duty as an older sister no as a fellow warrior to teach her how to fight. Thistraining will be a blast, and I smiled feeling super pumped up. We trained, and she was natural also the way she fought those beats while we were hunting was glorious ripping out some of the hits gut''s with the skill I taught her. I''m so proud she reminds me of myself when I was younger so adorable. We were close to exiting the forest. When we some guy I couldn''t see him clearly from this distance. He destroyed a hydra with a huge magic blast. Seems like fun fighting a hydra. I was disappointed that I couldn''t compete and kill it. Lucy The Bad Goddess I''m Lucy the Holy/Evil Goddess of Beauty and Rarity. You might ask, How can you be Holy and Evil? Well, I used to be just a Holy Goddess but there were a few things that made me get the Evil part. The first instance happened five thousand years ago. I once turned all demons including Goblin''s, Orc''s or any kind of creature of the night and even the actual Demons as in the Race into adorable looking creatures the problem is they retained there vile personalities and abilities. They almost wiped out the human race. Not to mention what they did with the women. There was alsothe issueof me collecting people with strange abilities, races, and spirit''s Etc.using any method available to me. Sometimes even tricking or backstabbing other God''s/Goddesses. I swear none of this is my fault at all.
Today I sensed a unique soul in the Check-in station as he was trying to tell him about Patron God''s. I sent him to his new world. So he wouldn''t hear about it. I even made George think he accidentally did it himself. What a fool. Now I just have to wait twenty hours and that person will be my follower. I was waiting patiently kinda of not really. I couldn''t calm down at all, twenty hours passed. YES, THAT SOUL IS MINE NOW. So I Called his soul I called his name three times.A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation. His soul hadtaken on the form he had while on earth. I wanted him to start the conversation with me. He sighed,He asked me who I was he looked like he had already guessed it though. I told him myoccupation and job I almost slipped up there. He looked mad. He, of course, questioned,I told him not to mind why I got my titles. Refusing to tell him any more than that and not even mentioning the acquiring part. He is a smart kid which makes Him/Her even more desirable in my eyes. I gave him a few blessing. He wanted to know more about this, but I dodged it and I didn''t answer his question and sent him right back to his body. I gave him a blessing so he would have talked to me once a week for an hour also little does he know he will forget all his concerns about me while we are talking. He would remember them after the conversations though. I''m not heartless. I gave him the blessing of having a beautiful Mana/Qi. The last one every little thing concerning Him/Her would be reported to me. We deities are not allowed to do this due to The Deity''s Handbook rule number 4. Deity''s are allowed to Check-in and occasionally monitor their followers, but consistent monitoring is forbidden. Sapient rights mumbo jumbo. So I made into a blessing and blocked it off with question marks. Well now to see how he is doing. Soul Start (3) This guy noticed us and started walking towards us finally becoming close enough to see what he looks like, He had short black hair with silver bangs over his eyes. He looked a couple of years older than me even though he looked slightly shorter than my male form but hewas a tad bit more muscular than me though. He was wearing a large red robe. I also noticed he had a Heterochromia, his left eye was silver, while his right eye was black. "Hello fellow travelers, how are you on this spectacularly lovely day?"He was smiling ear to ear. Ever since we were able to seehim clearly, Sarah''s been on edge looking like she was ready to attack him at any moment. I also knew to a certain amount he was a dangerous individual just based on instinct alone not even considering he annihilated a hydra with one shot. He noticed they are hesitance to answer and said: "What to do? What to do? You guys can tell what I am even if it was subconsciouslyfor the dragon girl. I guess I have to state my name and the reason for me being here. My name is Lyte Zenfer an Arch Demon working for the Evil God Charles. My mission is to help train a certain Miss or Mister Ryu." He looked at me; he was well informed of me. "Howthe fuck do you know about me and why do I need your help?" I demanded, glaring at him. My God is an avid fan of your Patron Deity Lucy. One could say he obsesses or should I say monitor''s your Goddess quite frequently and treats all her followers the same way as Lucy herself, so he sent me to help train you, this is a much harsher world than your previous one. Rape, War, Slavery, and corrupt monarchies areeveryday occurrenceshere you need strength to fight against it." I was in the middle of processing this information and thinking of a reply. "What does Lyte mean by a former world? Sarah spat. "Give me some fucking time here to process this and I will respond to both of you," I stated, visibly pissed off. They backed off noticing mymood and gave me some time alone. It took about thirty minutes, but I finally pieced it together in my mind, so I called them back. "Ok, Lyte, I accept your offer I don''t entirely trust you or this God of yours, Charles, but I admit I need some training in other areas besides my warrior abilities as you might have heard of from your God it can''t be today though," I explained. "I''m thrilledyou agreed I would''ve had to my alternative method to try and convince you otherwise," he replied in a sudden severe voice. The rest of the day I spent explaining my life up until now to Sarah she didn''t quite seem to understand certain parts of it, but oh well I guess. I was exhausted and the night was approaching. So I decided to go to sleepin oneof thetent''s we recently set up.
I woke up a couple of hours later. I was a male again, and my head was crystal clear. I looked back to yesterday embarrassedby how I acted I could have easily explained most of my situation. It was like looking back at my teenage self I was always getting pissed off and couldn''t think that well at all. Especially that one reply I made " I don''t know I''m myself I guess. What kind of utterly absurd logic is that and that girl bought it and not to mention neither of us asked how he ended up fighting that hydra.The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there. I quickly calmed backed down like how I usually do and reasoned that there''s not much I can do about it right now. I looked around my surroundings as I walked out ofmy tent. It was the night whenvampires are at their best that''s why I feel so awake right now. I saw Lyte by the campfire reading a book. He noticed me coming, and he put the book away usinga storage skill I sighed. It''s an overly used skill in most of the isekai''s I''ve read. "Good Morning how was your slumber?" He inquired. "fine" I replied not caring to go into detail. "you''re a lot calmer or should I say boring in this form" he sighed as he finished talking "you''re not the first one who has called me boring. I don''t like talking any more then I have to so it comes off that way." I declared in my usual monotone voice."Well I guess we will have to fix that with your training won''t we?" he said menacingly. It was nowmorning. "Ryu''s training"included me fighting demon beasts he conjured up to the point of mana exhaustion. He also made me read a couple of books based on the history of this world alongsidesome books with the information on the various races and Deities of this world. Ienjoyed that part though. Thanks to this training though, I hit level five and got the skill manacontrol as well as levelingup my Dark Blast to level 6. I wasn''t leveling up as fast asmy other form, but at least it was better than figuring it out bymyself unlike before. Mages need to do a lot of studying which is required to increasetheir stats.
Mana Control Level 1 (passive).MP consumption for spellsdecreases, more control over the shape and range of spells.
Sarah woke up a little a bit ago, so I decided to ask her a question I neglected to ask her yesterday." you mentioned that were heading to a village yesterday how far away is this village and what is its name?" Oh yeah, I forgot to mention where we are heading. We are going to my village it''s the closest one around here. I have to report back on my mission" She Insisted "but how far away is it and don''t you forget that your clan hates Vampires like me? I asked hesitantly. Lyte was chuckling as he was listening to our conversation. Well, I''m glad you''re so amused by this. I said sarcastically. Why I do, I feel like I''m not going to like Sarah''s reply? It better not be what I think it is. Thisevent is going to be a pain.
Meanwhile, theVampire named Vork the second in command to the Mist clan was meeting with his family to discuss his proposal to demolish the Locks clan. "We must destroy them they''ve been intruding in on our raids and killing our fellow clansman, there just beasts how dare the interfere with our business" he angrily said to the other members of his clan. The meeting only lasted about ten minutes most of them agreed to his plan. So it passed, and they were laying out the foundation for their assault on the village gathering their people and planning strategies against them. Vorkwas pleased that his clan agreed to his plan except for that irregularity. There was something wrong with her he thought. The one who objected though was Trisha, Her position in the clan was less than favorable because she was known for being the only one who wanted to make peace with the Canine Beast-kin. Even though she was the direct descendant of the clan''s Progenitor, but that wasn''t worth shit. Idiots the lot of them infuriated at her clan''s unwillingness to change their ways. Ryus Stats

Soul Start (4) "It will take about a month to get to my village." she declared hesitantly. I sighed and said, "This is going to be a troublesome journey especially with you two tagging along." Well, that wasn''t very nice. I think it''s an excellent thing we can both train you along the way; it''s a very fortuitous opportunity is it not." Replied Lyte in his usual playful tone. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah I get it, so we''re going to train along the way." I grumbled.
It'' s been a week sinceI came to this world and I was currentlyin my female form, Sarah and I were hunting some monsters along the when all the sudden a screen came up.
Entering Lucy''s domain.
GOD FUCKING DAMNIT IT''S ALREADY THAT TIME. I shouted as my surroundings started to change to that damned place..... "WHERE DID YOU DISAPPEARTO YOU VANISHED FOR A WHOLE FUCKING HOUR" she shouted angrily "It was that damn blessing Lucy gave me" I snapped back "What did she make you do?" She suddenly askednow seemingly concerned "I don''t want to talk about." I demanded Thankgod that''s over with,So we went back to hunting. I was nowfighting the Alpha Lion while Sarah defeated the others she looked especially happy killing these lions. The lion attacked me with its claws, and I dodged back, and I then started attacking again weakening it. Then I used the skill penetrate and ripped out its heart.
Massive Blow has Reached Level10.
Penetrate has reached Level 8.
Draconic Body has reached Level 9.
Aura has reached Level 9.
You have Leveled up.
That lion sure gave me some experience.
Ithas been about a couple of weeks since I fought that lion. It seems I can''t get past level nine in either my male or female body. I''m currentlya male right now by theway. I have deduced that there are some special conditions to reaching level ten. It''s probably because that''s when I get to choose an advanced class according to the knowledge of most of the novels I have read told me. Which I confirmed with Sarah and Lyte Level, also on a side note you can you can rank up in this world as well. Currently, Sarah is at the right level for her first rank up, but sheneeds certain conditions to achieve a class up. That''s one of the reasons why I don''t have the immortality that the vampires of my planets legends have yet according to Lyte.Stolen content warning: this tale belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences elsewhere. "I was able to rank up from a regular Demon to Arch Demon due to the amount of amount of chaos I spread," hechuckled." I don''t even know what kind of chaotic things he did to achieve that. Lyte''s advanced class was Black Mage which meant he could summon demonic beasts, use advanced dark magic, and also spread around various curses and diseases. The majorityof this world inhabitants haven''t been able to rank up. About one of every fifty can. Thisoccurrence is due to needing special conditions to achieve it. We''re almost to Sarah''s village now. The main issue though isthose blessings Lucyfirst my aura and all my all my attacks are all overly sparkly. There are also those talks with Lucy there so embarrassing, and the worst part is I can''t fight back or even question her during them. I also realized that I would be in my female body when I entered the village, Sarah planned that perfectly.
We saw smoke coming from where Sarah''s village as we were closing in on it. Sarah immediatelyrushed over there. It was the fastest I have ever seen her run. We followed suit and hurried after her. We will never forget what we saw that day. It looked just like a picture of what the hell would look like; There was a putrid smell as we entered the area. The fire was surrounding the whole city, The bodies chained up and mutilated with blood and guts spread all over the village. Most people would cry or be devastated over losing there loved ones it was horrible. Sarah was not sad though or even somewhat overwhelmed. She was enraged you could see her aura flare up violently. She then yelled at the top of her lungs louder than she ever had before. THOSE GOD DAMNED VAMPIRES. I WILL KILL THEM ALL; I WILL BURN THEM, TORTURE THEM, KILL ALL THEIR CHILDREN, ERASE THEIR VERY EXISTENCE FROM WORLD SO NOT EVEN THE EVEN THE LEGENDS WOULDN''T EVEN DARE MENTION THEM. Life isn''t always as peaceful. We can''t always prevent these things by having an OP protagonist which I''m not anyways. I have had ever had a dull life it might have been peaceful, but I had no purpose. Now I do have a purpose feeling the amount of rage she has. Iknow not even my male form could calm down in this situation even I have my limits. I will do everything withmy new life to prevent these things from happening. Even if I can''t save them all, I will at least die to try. Even Lyte who is usually smiling ear to ear looks disgusted by these turn of events. ''I will teach these vampires the real chaos that we demons bring" He reassured Sarah. "Sarah we will get our vengeancefor your clan I swear it" I declared.
Meanwhile back at the castle as everyone was celebrating their triumph against the Locks clan. Trisha was planning to betray the family. She has had enough finally understanding they will never change. I was stupid for even trying she thought. First of all, I need to weaken them, I''ll poison their blood supply by having a friend I made connections with give me some of those vials of sunlight potions,then I will put into the blood supply that will weaken them enough I hope so I''ll be able to do some damage with that. Even if I can''t kill them with that, I have an escape route, which I will use gather enough support to take them down with, I will then rebuild this clan from the ground up. I will teach my fellow vampires the path of coexistence. While I may not be able to help the other vampire clans, this will be a start. Then hopefully I will be able to do the same with the other tribes. Thankfully the progenitor decided to leave a while back otherwise there would be no hope at all for this endeavor. Lucy The Evil.... I mean The Holy Goddess of Beauty I was receiving continuous updates on Ryu as he was fighting monsters and training with his mentors. He had recently met up with that god''s follower. That dang Charles isalways trying to get close to followers and meCharles is helping Ryu get stronger though. So I amthankful for him for that. I don''t know what I would do if my poor follower got hurt. I might have to get a little nasty, and that would be unfortunate. I watched him grow over the week. It was interesting to see him shift into different two differentforms. Even though he had the same personality for the most part in his male form, he was a lot calmer. While her female form was more prone to getting outbursts. It was fascinating. It was almost time for ourtalk to come. I made sure she was in her female form when we met. I don''t hate his male form. I want to dress her up in frilly and girly clothes though it was my passion I mean duty as the goddess of beauty to do so. That was part of the reason I made her more agreeable in our talks. So she wouldn''t fight back.The author''s narrative has been misappropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. It was time. She entered my domain. "How are you today Ryu?" I asked in a very caring voice. "I''m good for the most part," she replied "Let''s get down to business, shall we. "I''m going to give you these clothes, and you are going to wear them and show them off for me ok," I demanded. She is going to hate this when she becomes aware ofwhat happened when Ryu gets back, but I''msure she will get used to it. "Ok goddess," she said kinda looking dazed out. I got her to try on abikini, a maid costume and of course of a very frilly and overall cute dress. We also Spent time talking about her life before her transfer and her current life. We also spoke about romances. Unfortunately,he/she hasn''t been interested an anyone yet. Our time was reaching an end what a shame, but I put the clothes in her inventory hopefully she will wear them outside of here. Our next meetings were pretty much the same we did the same things and of course, me forcing her to wear beautiful clothes and talking about life. I was still spying on her like usual she is mine after all. One day while I am watching and saw what those vampires did to her unfortunate friend''s village. I was getting quite emotional, and I didn''t want Ryu to witness such a scene either. I wasn''t happy that she decided to get vengeance, but I decided to helpher out a bit. I will do something a little wrong toCarly. She is the Goddess that most vampires choose as their Patron Deity by theway. Lyte The Chaotic Demon Lyte was born six hundred years ago. He was from a lower class demon family that hadn''t had a familymember to rank-up in centuries. Lyte was a different demon he liked spreadingchaos like the rest of the clan, but he was a part of the rarefaction of demons that had morals. Which meant he wouldn''t try to destroy and eliminate all sentient life. He still liked to make contracts like most demons at the cost of their souls. He was more formal about it though. He also did enjoy messing with them and still make their lives miserable it was his favorite pass time after all. His Patron Deity was Charles that was most of his faction choice for their deity. Most demons chose the Goddess Synthia however since she wanted the pure destruction and annihilation of the world and its races. Two hundred years ago therewas a massive war between the demon and humans. Both sideswere being completely unreasonable. Thousands of lives were lost, but due to my faction teaming up with the other races and some of thehumans who were against it. They were able to stop it. However, they knew that this would happen again and they just finished it for know. It was inevitable for it to happen again. During this event,he lost most of his friends and his lover Cassandra. It was heartbreaking for him, but that made him have abreakthrough and achieve his rank-up to an Arch Demon.You don''t necessarily lose all your friends and or lovers to gain a rank-up, but strong emotions are needed to break throughand achieve a rank-up.
A couple of days ago he was informed by his Patron Deity. He was to train someone named Ryu who had a lot of circumstances that were very much uncommon. He was heading to the forest he had almost reached there location, but a Hydra ambushed him. It was probably sent by Synthia''s Followers. They have been trying to get rid of him for centuries. Especially after he ranked up to being an Arch Demon. He Annihilated it with the spell Darkness Incineration which was an advanced Spell that one couldacquire with having the Black Mage Class as theiradvanced class. He then saw Ryu, the person he was looking for with a Wolf Beast-Kin, so he approached them. I greeted them in my usual fashion. They were on edgeand were hesitantto respond to me. It was somewhat funny. I would surely mess with Ryu and Sarah later, but for now, he had to convince them to letme train Ryu it was his god''s wish. He likes that goddess Lucy after all.The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. I was somewhat mocking them.Still, they were on edge, and they were able to tell I was a Demon. The wolf girl was able to sense it better it seems. I stated my race to which Patron deity I belonged to; They were still questioning me, so I laid down the facts and replied to Ryu''s question. I told him how harsh this world. It did not forgive a person with a Low level. It was best for Ryu to get stronger many people will also seek him out and try to destroy him or manipulate him into joining their ranks. Even though I knew Ryu wouldn''t join them without some logical reason to do so. The wolf girl is starting questioning her. Ryu was getting pissed, so she demanded some time to think. To which I backed off sh looked noticing this fact. Thirty minutes later she called us back. She accepted my offer. She stilldidn''t fully trust me, but what would the fun beif she did? She spent the rest of the day explaining her circumstances to Sarah. She was about to shift now this will be fun. I get to make him train with my "methods."What a thrill.
I greeted him as he woke up putting away the book I was reading. He was a lot more aware as a male. I preferred his female form she was a lot more exciting and more accessible to rouse. His answers were too neutral. I decided to fix that quirk of his. Time for his training. I summoned many demon beasts for him to fight. I made him fight until the point of mana exhaustion even though I didn''t have to. I then made himread countless on various subjects. He was fast at reading; he probably enjoyed it. Sarah woke up and Ryu decided to question her about her where we were going. We were going to her village. Ryu then asked her on how he could be there since her clan if he were a Vampire. I knew what she was planning for him I couldn''t stop my self from chuckling.
It had been a week since she came to this world she was currently training with Sarah. He vanished all the sudden. Sarah came to me and asked me "Do you know what happened to her." I replied "no of course not," even though I knew full well where Ryu was currently. I had to have a little bit of fun right? Ryu came back after an hour and finished training with Sarah. Who was still oblivious that I hid information from her.
Wewere almost to her village we saw smoke and Sarah''s speed suddenly increased running to the town. We followed suit and headed over there as fast as we could. We saw the village in flames there was a bothersome smell to the area to which I was very much familiar with this. There were bodies chained up. They were mutilated also oozing blood and entrails. There were also a lot of guts and gore all over the surrounding also of course. I''ve come across this scene many times during my life. I am still very much appalled by it though. Sarah was screaming at the top of her lungs cursing out the vampires with all of her breath. Ryu has come to an understanding as to how cruel this world is and gained resolve it seems. We will teach those vampires a lesson they shall not forget If those vampires survive through this even though. Soul Start (5) I was mad, but I realized I needed a plan of attack. Even as a female I was able to deduce we were few. I was still at a low level, and I needed to get my advanced classes and level up a bit more before we moved to attack them. Also, we needed to find some allies.Lyte began speaking about his plan as Sarah and I were processingthis all. "First of all my dear Ryu about your advanced classes, you have achieved the necessary resolve to acquire them now. Second of all, I might be able to find some of my fellow demons to be able to help us. We will have to make a bit of detour though I''m afraid to say, they will also be able to help prepare you for the battle. You will need some more variety for your training, after all, you can''t just train in my ways or Sarah''s ways. You might not want to choose our advanced classes after all." Sarah seemed strangely calm for once and replied before I could. "As much as I want to rip out their organs or just overall killing them in the most fucking brutal way possible essentially. I admit I can''t rush into it. I lost all my friends and family. I realize my strength is not good enough to wipe out a whole clan of vampires. So despite my desireto in and attack them blindly I won''t. I will make them regret this though." She seemed to reach some understanding within herself. "I agree with your plan I need to get stronger, and we need allies before we attack their clan. We can''t attack hastily. We need to kill the fuckers still though." I explained Sarah then added after I was done with my statement"We should probably visit some of theother Beast-Kin clans there should be some who would probablybe able to help us in our this god damn vengeanceof mine. "So we''re off to find my clan. I''m glad you two willingly agreed to my plan and not just being the stereotypical brutes," Lyte exclaimed. With that, the day had ended as we begun our journey for vengeance.
"I will Explain to you how stats work in this world Ryu. While Sarah''s and your Female body INT and WIS stats seem low there what an average middle schooler or early high school student might have. You two are bit more of emotional which makes it harder foryou to concentrate. Byyourworlds standards, An elementary student would have a 3-4 range while a challenged person would be 1-2. 10-30 is considered College Level with life experience Included. We Demonsare at a completely different level though. We have lived long it''s also the same with Ranked up Races." Lyte Explained as we continued our journey to our first stop. "So what about the warrior path stats and why are we not training during this journey?" I inquired. "Sarah responded to the first question. Warrior Stats are completely different. I might have been the successor to my clan. I definitely couldn''t compare to the elder and trained veterans though. Especially thecouple that had ranked up in our clan. All of them have been training for years, so their stats were at least a couple hundred each." Before you get an advanced class and decide your path Leveling up skills is extremely hard. During the time weset up camp. You should probably focus on your Aura and Mana controlinstead. So I guess some Training then. Sarah and I will use our "Unique Methods" to help you. This will increase your Stats. Lyte said insistently.Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. They both were smiling ear to ear this time. They must have come to some consensus while I wasn''t looking Dang it. What do they have planned for me I probably won''t like it all. The days went by during we walked for abouttwelve hours each day. This time of the day was different for each day due to my shift. I''m surprised Sarah could change her sleep schedule so much though. Six hours we spent on training my Qi/Mana. For my male form, Lyte made me wear a device around my waist that drained my energy while having me shoot at the targets he set up. That was exceedingly painful. Sarah just continuously pummeled me in my female form while afterward, Lyte healed me which was also Painful to an extreme degree. They also let me suck their blood they took turns with that. Because of that though my Vampire''s Seduction hasn''t increased at all. The remaining six hours were for sleeping to which was my happy time. The other negative though, Was the usual "talks'' with Lucy. I still get exhausted, but it took a lot more to get me there now. We were almost to our first stop. These were my stats now.

Why was my Charisma increasing it? Wasn''t I bit more unlucky now considering what has happened to me. Also, why are both my Shifts equal in it? I seem to developed more emotion in my male form as I gained my newfound resolve. It was really Irksome. Why should I have to deal with this nonsense? We finally reached our first destination. It was Cave clan which were home to the Bear Beast-Kin. They were known for their Martial Arts abilities. So we''re hoping to find a teacher there and of course, allies to help us. Little did I know I would someone here with very weird hobbies would accompany us.Which would be Incredibly awkward for me. Dang, this godforsaken world. Sarahs Rank-Up We had almost reached my village. We then started noticing smoke rising from the town. I Immediately rushed over there. Ryu and Lyte had soon followed. We then reached the village. It smelled a mix of rotten corpses and smoke. It waslike my very own personal hell. My clan''s bodies were chained up and mutilated their blood gushing out. My father''s body was severed into several pieces along with my mother''s. They were almost unrecognizable. My various training partners and close friends we dead, Everything was gone. I yelled with all my might cursing and promising to end these vile creatures. Ryu spoke he was somehow able to sense my emotions and offered his help in my vengeance. Lyte also agreed to help out he was disgusted by that. I felt something changing, I had more strength than ever before. My mind seemed to have strangely cleared up. I still hate the vampires with all my might though. I realized even with this new strength I wouldn''t be able to take them down. I seem to have also gained some new resolve.
We left on our Journey. I was training Ryu''s Qi by brutally beating her. Even while doing this, my obsession with Ryu was getting stronger also now. He helped me gain my resolve and for once not me going into some mad frenzy. I realized I should let Ryu realize in his very being that he loves me.Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit. As he was sleeping for those six hours a day, I was continually training my improved body. I didn''t let Lyte or Ryu notice this. It was easy because my outward appearance hadn''t changed at all. It was going to be a surprise. I didn''t need much sleep now it seems. I Ranked-Up to a Fenrir Beastkin after that day we were in what is now my former home. There were some considerable improvements in all my stats. My various skills leveled up faster after I achieved this as well. Days have passed Ryu, and I was getting stronger as I made sure to hide my increase in abilities. My pummeling sessions were getting through, and I guess Lyte''s Training as well. We were almost at the village of the Bear Beastkin they were among the more reasonable amongst us Beastkin. So I decided that would make an excellent first stop for potential allies. They were known for their wisdom and their Martial Art class. I was supposed to give Ryu more of a variety after all as much as I hated the fact that someone else other than me training the kid. This entity would teach Ryu Warrior skills. I was irked by this as you can tell I even yelled about it a lot during our travels. They knew I didn''t like this long story short. I will make Ryu notice my feelings, and he will be mine although vengeance must come first though otherwise, it would get in the way of our current progress. I have to set my priorities.We arrived, and we witnessed that Bear Beastkin. He was a very "Special" Beastkin.

Martial Arts of the Cave clan (1) We were in the village of the Cave Clan. I was currently in my Vampire shift by the way. We were greeted with looks of confusion and scorn as we entered the Villiage. They didn''t seem to want us there I sighed. One of the Bear Beastkin came up to us. He was what appeared to be a middle-agedman he was slim but well toned. He had long black hair and a long beard too match, his eyes were pure white, and of course, his animal ears were black as well. The other villagers were walking away pretendingnow not to notice our presence. "Why have you come to our village?" The man insisted. He didn''t seem to trust us, or he was just wary of visitors in general either way, I had to convince this man and his clan to help us in our battle against the Vampires. "Well this is a bother, you don''t like the fact that I''m a vampire and also that we also have a demonwith us right?" I inquired "You''re correct vampires, and demons are well known for spreading destructionand chaos wherever they go. They have killed not only membersof my clan, but most of the other races have sufferedunder those two races well." he countered. This is annoying because his logic is sound and let''s be he''s sincere. No, I should say he''s forthright with his statement. Inow have to go through the trouble of proving my innocence. I''m not some sort evil villain after all. The best thing to do in this situation though would be going through the daunting task of proving myself through some trail or saving their village, have someone else important vouch for me, or maybe I should reveal my other shift to them. As I was contemplating these choices which none of them appealed to me, they all seemed unlikely to work. I don''t have someone to vouch for me, revealing my other shift might make them even more hostile. So I shouldn''t take that chance, and as for proving myself, it''s mostly a matter of time and patience which we don''t currently have right now. "Excuse me, lad, I see you''re in some need of proving yourself to Mr.Chief over there mind if I step in?" One of what looked like one of the clan members said. Was he here before? I sighed its that skill. The "presencehiding" skill, I partially figured it might be here. After Sarah told me aboutthem mostly having the Martial Arts advanced class. He was a bear Beastkin. It seemed as if he was of the Panda Variant probably according to his two colored ears and naturally, his black and white hair. He also was quite toned underneath that black leather armor of his. He Appeared to be the same age I was on earth. He was someone we needed on our side though. I have cast off my anti-social feelings after the Incident, so I will accept his help even if I dislike it still.The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. "Yo lad,areyou going to make me wait forever here?" he Implored looking visibly irritated, but under that facade, I couldsee that slight smile of his. "Fine I give in, will you help us?" I suggested knowing well that''s what he wanted to hear. Why does he call me Lad though? He is only a couple years older than this body currentlyis. "Well, I was planning to butt in anyways due to their being a cute wolf girl at your party. Well then now chief as you know I have theskill to see the essence of any mortal soul right?" The man inquired. HEY, BRAT WHO YOU CALLING CUTE. I''M THE VERY DEFINITION OF BEAUTY. Sarah exclaimed. The Chief interrupted before Sarah could go into full rant mode. "Yeah, I fully knowabout your skill in that. Are you trying to tell me now that their souls are free of said thoughts or sins? I can understand how the wolf girl could be maybe, but for a Vampire and a Demon to be free of that is practically unheard of." The mysterious Beastkin then responded "While the Demon is somewhat questionable, but their whole party does not have the seed of destructionor chaos in their souls. The Wolf girl and the Vampire here are almost completely pure. Which is abnormal in itself." "Wait, a Vampire that is almost completely pure. While there is occasionally a Vampire that is on the Lawful side to be almost pure, you must be fucking with me right, not to mention the loudmouth girl is almost pure also?" He Puzzingly asked. Why do I feel like I will be teased later on because of this? Especially since Lyte is giving me that smile of his again. "Nope, not at all. The Vampire''s soul seems to be of a different variety entirely." The man declared. "Well ifhe has that kind of soul you''re probably right then. Plus you have proved your skill by saving us from many potential threats before. Though that weird habit of yours have when you''re around women is bothersome. Well then how may we help you travelers?" he now seemed sincere while asking this. "Well then now that this dull conversation is over. We are in need of some help taking care of a certain Vampire clan. They have robbed poor Sarah here of her Family her Friends and finally at last her home. We got there after the fact, and now we seek justice against them. Also, might I add we would also like to ask if there was someone who might be willing to train my dear friend Ryu over here?" Lyte Requested. "Hmm, a Vampire who wants take out his fellow Vampire''s. Well, in all honesty, it would take a while to prepare our forces even then. They might have someone besides them that you don''t currently know about so I would suggest gathering some more forces. In the meantime, I will send Clyde here with you; He would be the best suited for what you desire." The Chief insisted. "There is one thing I would like to ask before this journey though you''re a Mage right lad? I wouldn''t be able to teach you my skills without you havingany of the warrior''s attributes which you don''t seem to have any of." Clyde Questioned. "Well about that you will be able totell in the very beginning of tomorrow and also we had already planned on looking for more help in other villages as well," I suggested. What does tomorrow have anything to do about it? He Implored. He looked very amused by this. Charles The Neutral Evil God My name is Charles I''m one of the two primary Evil God''s that most of the demons choose as their Patron Deity. We have been around since the beginning of this world. I have seen the good, and the unspeakable evils brought the races of this world, and I''m not impressed by it I had almost given up on the planet and its people until Lucy came into my life although indirectly she added humor and something entirely unexpected to the world. Lucy was obsessed with making everything into her likeness or just cute things in general. She was also obsessed with collecting people with unique skills, souls, or just weird in general. I have gotten to know quite a lot about her, and I realized I was in Love with her very existence anything Lucy wanted I wanted as well. If it wasn''t for those blasted "good gods," we could have done a lot more. I also realized the reason she was obsessed with the rare people is that she felt some connection with them due to her standing as a goddess not fitting in with the evil or good gods. She doesn''t love me back, which is a shame but I understand that she doesn''t understand how love feels. Enough with Lucy for now back to the central part which is my problem with my fellow evil God Synthia. I had my followers stop the battle between them and the mortal races a couple of hundred years ago, But she has been amassing her army and partnering with a couple of the other Evil Gods this time.This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there. So I sent Lyte on a quest to gather forces which included finding and training Lucy''s new follower Ryu. This Ryu fellow seems to have the potential to be a fantastic Mage and Warrior due to his circumstances which usually impossible I might add. It will also help my relationship with Lucy probably. Lyte''s group is currently gathering forces to take down a Vampire clan that wiped out Sarah''s Clan. This battle has the added benefit of taking out one of the troops that were going to help Synthia''s War against sentient life. The first place is there stopping The Cave clan one of Sarah''s Choices for companions to help. The sites I instructed Lyte to go was to the Fairy Villiage and The Kingdom of Crosses those two were instrumental in the last war I also suggested searching for companions on the way of course. These connections would also allow him to have links to the other races that might be able to help him. We''re going to need as possible for the upcoming war Synthia seems to have gotten wiser since her last attempt is convincing some of the other supernatural races to join her side this time. The thing is I have been preparing since the last war. I figured Synthia might have gotten some new Ideas. So while I''m gathering more forces which may or may not work. I''ve been sending my troops over the years to get some of these new forces to switch sides and either convince their clan to listen to them or kill them. I have a connection in that vampire clan to a certain vampire named Trisha that will be able to help our group take revenge on them. I have someone giving her a little something-something to poison them. Martial Arts of the Cave clan (2) Today is the first time I will have stayed up to witness my shift for myself. I was going to show Clyde the reason why I needed an instructor for martial arts. The rest of the villagers went to sleep and so we went into Clyde''s house at the edge of the villiage and waited. Sarah was also curious also what happened during my shift as was I. Since we were usually both asleep for it, Lyte said "I have stayed and saw it for myself already," He chuckled. Then he got quiet and refused to add any more information on it. The time had finally arrived after we have been waiting for hours. A bright Pink aura suddenly surrounded me and where my heart was a spot of black energy appeared. Then it changed from black to pink as if to match the atmosphere around me. That must be my soul I thought to myself. The change after that was instantaneous my body and clothes changed an in an instant. It was weird also noticing the mental shift that came with being awake for it. I went from being clear-minded to being just a tad bit more emotional in an instant. Everyone just started laughing at me, making fun of the pink aura that was surrounding me. I was getting irritated. I knew this time it wasn''t Lucy''s fault. I usually can blame everythingonthat blasted Godess. It was that blasted soul of mine, thistime though. They werecontinuinglaughing until I "politely" told them to fuck off. Clyde was super interested in these turn of events. He looked at me with what appeared to be a look of lust; then he noticed that I was aware of it and started speaking as if to distract me away from it. "Well, I can very much see why you would need an instructor in martial arts now. Your Physique has the qualitiesof the fighter class now. I take it you were learning from learning from the cute wolf girl before." "That flattery won''t fucking get you anywhere oh by the way name is Sarah, you damn bear," Sarah snorted. Ok, let''s get back on track here now people Lyte proposed. "I''m sorry I didn''t mean to offend you Sarah but getting back on topic by the way you look hot in that form by the way Ryu." I flicked him off. "He then continued, It was a fantastic decision to seek my aid to help train you in martial arts."Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. "Why is that?" I demanded. "From what I have noticed so far while you''re a "little" more emotional in this body, but you have the same base personality which I think would be an excellent fit for my Martial Arts." It was very much right that all though I was a lot more angryin this form I generally had the same philosophy about mylikes and dislikes. "Especially after you learn some of my meditation techniques, while it was not wrong for Sarah to teach you some of her skills. Which I assume she did. You will much more align with my skills," he looked kinda creepy as he said that smiling after everything was said and done. It was time for us to move on since we got some more allies. We still had to recruit more of course. "Well, where are we off now I asked Lyte and Sarah?" I asked. "You need to get some training done, and I need to check up on some things Lyte responded wewouldmeet back in a couple of weeks. I need to make surethe roads are safe, and my contactsare assured," Lyte responded. "So we have to make sure it''s safe when we secure your allies" I questioned. "Yes, also Sarah how far away are the villages you suggest we visit" Lye asked. "There at least three weeks away depending on which route we take," Sarah stated. "Ok as I look for my contacts I will check the roads so can you write me up a map." Lyte Suggested. "Already have one here she pulled it out from one of her pockets." She replied. Such a smooth conversation, Sarah has gotten calmer for the most part. Sarah Gave Lyte the map. Afterward, we split up and headed out of the village. We traveled into the forest atop the mountains not too far. The mountain area was a spot that most of them went to train and hone their martial arts. Which wasn''t that far away. It was a training area "I will continue travelingwith you I need to make sure this Bear doesn''t anythingfunny to ya, I''m also interested in his training techniques" Sarah declared. Why does she look determined all the sudden? "So how are we going to practice meditation as you can see in this shift. My patience isminimal," I said somewhat confused. "We first have to build your tolerance by constantly triggering you. It is pretty obvious what you''re triggered by in this form after all," Clyde excitedly stated. "Wait a god damn second I won''t let you do anything to the kid here it''s mine," Sarah hissed. Since when am I hers and why am I an It now? "Hey, Sarah what about that talk of your revenge for your clan don''t you think Ryu should get stronger to be able to help us?" Clyde said curiously. "I can do it by myself if that''s what it comes down to, Sarah stated." "Ok what about this what I said you could do whatever you want to Ryu and it would help Ryu with Its training. Plus If I''m correct in my assumption don''t you need to train as well," Clyde offered. Why does Sarah need to train if she''s maxedout level wise already, and what does Clyde mean by her doing whatever she wants to me? What are Clyde and Sarah Planning to do to me? I pondered. "You have a deal, Clyde," Sarah stated. "I''m glad we agree on this" Clyde responded. "So once you piss me off enough what''s after that?" I questioned Clyde hesitantly. "After you have learned to clear your mind we will start on the techniques that make up my sect of martial arts," Clyde Remarked answering my question. So we get to the usual stick overcoming my quirks by weeding them out but through frustration and embarrassment. Their smiles look very diabolical right now. Thistraining was going to be the most mentally frustrating thing I will have done or ever will have to do. The bright side this will help me move on from being irritated in this form as well. Clyde the Flirting Bear My name is Clyde I''m a Handsome Beast-kin of the Cave Clan. I have trained all my life in the mountains near my village practicing Martial Arts. The villagers have mixed feelings about I am a prodigy that has helped my village from many crises. I was also well known for my essence detection abilities as well which I had from birth. That was one of the reasons I was pretty good with martial I could sense life from all around me in a very detailed way. My training also sometimes included going to desolate areas sometimes where there was no life or downright evil essence training my body and soul to survive those climates helped me along with our clans Mountain Training helped me be who I am today. The women were always annoyed by my flirting, and the men were infuriated by that also and by taking them down a few notches with my teasing didn''t help with that as well. Although I might look like just a flirt or a jokester, I have an ambition of protecting the peace of my family and Village from the ongoing threats. While also hoping to find a cute girl to settle down with it at the end as a side goal. Lately, there have been more and more supernatural creatures trying to invade villiage its not just our village though, and they have been gathering more and more of their kind each time they attack. There have been rumors of them gathering from all over the map attacking villages on their way to the south gathering what seems to be an army.This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. So we were deciding how to deal with them when a group of strangers entered the town. It was a Demon, Vampire and a cute Wolf Girl. My clan was afraid they are going to attack us, but that didn''t seem right they would have to come with a more significant force than. So I checked their Essence with my technique the demon seemed to be one of the semi-good kind that was rare in itself, but we had a wholly pure but rather was that even a Vampire''s essence it looked mutated or something like that. The sexy wolf girl was, of course, pure that I did not doubt about already. I was just afraid they might have brainwashed her, but I know now that isn''t the case at all. So I stepped in between the chief and this group conversation without the villagers noticing and told the chief about there essence. They explained that Sarah the cute wolf girl''s village was massacred and even brutally tortured beforehand by Vampire''s. That ticked me off how dare those fucking vamps to destroy girls home. This act was not tolerable in my eyes these creatures are getting more and more brutal. They were looking for allies in the attack against the Vampire and a Martial Arts Trainer for the Vampire Mage? The chief agreed he probably understood that these vampires weren''t working alone, so he asked for some time to prepare because he thought there was more to this then we know. So he said they should look for more allies and offered my services as a trainer to which I was hesitant about, why would a Vampire mage need a martial arts trainer? They told me I would find out by waiting for the new day to arrive, so we went to my place where we went to my home we expected, and when the beginning of the next day came to the Vampire. A glow surrounded him followed by some strange events, and he was now a Dragon Girl Beast-Kin. A very sexy one at that. This change was why he needed a trainer, Ryu had different attributes in this albeit it seemed he also had a more of a temper. She would make a pretty good martial artist though I believe. While also being that attractive that''s a dealy combo. Martial Arts of the Cave clan (3) This training to get past my temper was grueling and exhausting and downright embarrassing. It was a lot different than getting past my anger issues in my first world. During that time it took years of temperance training and acceptance. It was aggravated by social interactions and just pure impulse. My friends and family helped to straighten me out and diving into more communications with others to build up a tolerance to it helped as well. This training also helped me get out of my chuni phase and be the calm person I am today. Well at least until I Reincarnated. What made it worse now was the fact I was afraid it would come back someday so this just made it worse. That''s why I knew I had to this training no matter how embarrassing this for me. It took years before to fix this we only have a limited. So now something that took five years before we have to do within a couple of months. I ended up hurting so many people before I won''t allow it to happen again. I was meditating while being forced to wear embarrassing clothes the ones Lucy gave me somehow. Sarah and Clyde had gotten a hold of them. I thought they were in my inventory how did they gain access to it plus there were more than before Damned Goddess. I Exited out of my trance. I was aware of surroundings more then I had been before. It had been about a month, at first, I would go into a rage at everything they did and attack them when they did these things to me, and now it was more now me just letting off a few cuss words. It was time to move onto the next step of this embarrassing training Clyde had gone back to the village and brought a bunch of males. I would have to remain calm and reject their advances toward me in a relaxed and rational manner. I cussed at the first few men. Clyde then gave me the penalty of having to wear one of those first few stupid outfits. So I calmed down and started putting some of that meditation into practice and politely turned them down. While during my Male days I was studying and practicing mana control. One of the things I had to do was to increase my wisdom stats in my female form as well, which included me forcing to deal with communications with strangers that passed by and of course more of the villagers. I was clearing out, and harvesting plants and I had to do it in a way that that would not damage them because they were used for herbs, so any damage caused weaker potions or outright failure of the medicine in general. A Couple weeks had passed by they were preparing my test to see I passed the test of calming my anger.The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation. This test included me going to a nearby village that was known for its criminal activity. I had to stop the criminals while doing it in a way where I wasn''t allowed to go into a rage fit no matter what they did I was allowed to kill them still of course though. I entered the village it smelled horrid and reeked of death and just general waste the women and children looked like they had no souls and were just empty husks only a few good men remained it seemed, and they were in salve collars forced to work by the criminals. I thought only demons could do these things sometimes I forget these things are more common in this type of era and humans can be as corrupt as demons or any evil creature in some cases even worse. Sarah and Clyde had come with me just in fact if there were a few high leveled ones. The women were being used as tools for the scum, and the kids were also all slaves like the men. There were also killing the men that fell and collapsed due to overworking and probably some malnutrition. This area was downright horrible, and I was angry, but I was keeping my cool for now and came up with a plan with Sarah and Clyde to stop them. The plan was to lure them away from the people by distracting them with me and Sarah bodies. This decision would cause the villagers to be safe, and we would do this as many times as needed while slowly killing them off. This plan was working until the last group they were all stronger and seemed to be smarter the rest of the grunt''s and realized this was happening. So they took the villagers and huddled them up and demanded we come out and show ourselves or they all die. But I was calm it seemed almost as if I was in my male form they wouldn''t get rid of the lively hood they depended on these slaves. They just threatened us so we would come out and kill us. So I asked Clyde can you somehow mess up their senses with any of your martial art techniques. "You seem to be quite knowable to know I might have them," he said. I''m a nerd, after all, it''s a commonplace in the books of my world to have that skill," I said. "I was planning to do it anyways, of course, those criminals deserve my punishment for hurting the women and kids of this village." He replied ignoring or not even questioning what a nerd was. Sarah and I will distract them, Clyde you go behind and use your skill on them and save the villagers. Then we will destroy them "yes my beautiful maidens" Clyde acknowledged. Sarah and I walked out "we surrender to you mighty people" we declared. "The broads got some sense, after all, you will make men happy with your bodies." The leader of the criminals declared when all of them suddenly started freaking out "I can''t see why can''t I move my body at all'' they all complained. That was our queue the villagers were gone thanks to Clyde and me, and Sarah killed the rest. When all the sudden after we killed them an announcement appeared.
Skill Achieved you now have the Serene Mind skill. A fighter skill used by Assasins and Martial Artists.
"You passed the test and had gotten the skill right?" Clyde said suddenly appearing in front of them said. "I hate that skill of yours to appear suddenly, but yes I have" I replied now calmer than ever. "You saved us the trouble and took care of this village thank you" Clyde declared smiling. "What will happen to the villagers?" I also just realized now were of the rabbit variant. "My people will take them in and rehabilate them as much as we can they were pretty scared after all and we hope they could become good enough to move on afterward," Clyde responded. So we returned to the village and after all the necessary arrangements after which Clyde said he wanted to talk outside. "You have achieved the Serene Mind skill so now I can teach you actual martial arts skills," Clyde stated. Lytes Super Natural Meeting I have parted from the group in search of my fellow Demons under the order of Charles now that it was deemed Safe for Ryu to be alone for a bit. I am to gather my kind and have a meeting with them. Without Ryu and Sarah along I can move a lot faster because I can Teleport myself to the locations desired. It only works on just me, unfortunately. The first stop was Al''s Domain. He was an Arch-Demon like me but far more experienced than me of being such. "hi hi Aly I called out to him" fully knowing he hated that name. "Damn it''s you, Lyle, what do you want?" He snapped. "No need to get snappy I was sent here by Charles to tell you we are having a gathering Aly."I snickered. "So it''s finally time" Al stated. I all the sudden got quiet and an a lowered my tone and said: "Yes it''s almost time they have been gathering their forces it''s time for us to exit out of the peaceful area because war is upon us so gather your troops." The air almost seemed chilled now. "We will have it here also" I stated. "Fine" He replied My next stop was at the Arch-Demon Betty''s Castle. This stop was probably going to be the hardest because of how freaking overbearing she is towards me. She stood there waiting, of course, rushing up and hugging me and asking if I was alright. "I''m fine my lady but can you stop clinging to me," I stated holding in my annoyance. "You''re no fun you know I love you, have you still not gotten over her?." Betty sighed. "Can you please calmly refrain from talking about her?" I asked with some anger in my voice. "Sorry I blundered my bad" Betty said with a halfway sincere look.You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version. "Ok back to the topic at hand Charles has declared we are to have a meeting so gather your troops were meeting at Al''s Castle. She suddenly got quiet and knew the meaning of my words before saying, "I shall gather them," her flirting nature not noticeable anymore in her tone. "Ok see you later I''m off to my final stop" I stated. "Where''s that?" she asked "I''m sneaking a Vampire away from her clan to our meeting," I said. Thus I left and went to a tavern in the town of Crystal. There I met a vampire named Trisha. "Nice to meet you I''m Lyte I''m supposed to take you to our gathering which you have been informed of I assume you have made the necessary," I said. "Yes, I have prepared a body double in my clan so they would not notice me while I''m gone" She stated. ''Ok off we go then," I said. So we transported to Al''s castle each with our own personal teleport skill. We arrived, and everyone was there ok now the time is right. The castle was full to the brim. The other two Arch-Demons along with Trisha and myself were standing on the balcony in front of everyone. Al spoke up "The time is nigh my fellow brethren the enemy demons are gathering in masses this time inviting other dark creatures to join them. We all knew this day would come and have been preparing for this day. I have brought a Vampire spy from an enemy faction to tell us their plans. "My name is Trisha from the Mist clan about a year ago my clan met with one of the enemy demons under the guidance of their and my clan''s goddess and had allied with them. We were also told that others have as well. So have been destroying villages far more then usual under their guidance." She Stated. Lyte then spoke up "My plan is a few of us here along with myself along some of my other connections will wipe out the first obstacle the Mist clan. But this will take some time, and I''m raising someone who could be of great help to our future cause, and Trisha has told me she has have been giving them some small doses of holy water to weaken them, so we wait half a year and then attack them." "Meanwhile we will train and plan strategies on how to deal with them and prepare for the next step of this war" Betty declared. The gathering then ended tensions were high this war seems a bit different than before we all had in the back our mind and wondering and asking ourselves what are they plotting. Afterward, Betty tried coming up to me and tried asking me about this particular person I am supposed to help. Betty stomped out pouting because I refused to tell her anything. Then Trish returned to the Mist clan. I suppose I have to prepare those methods of Training for Ryu before I get back this might take so it will be a while before I can meet them again. Lucy The Master Planner I''ve been planning with Charles and some of the Deity''s surprisingly some of them were on the light side this time thanks to Ryu''s new connections. Which Included Ragna The Patron Deity that most of the Locks clan, and the Mysterious Clan that has the same origin as the Locks Clan the Key Clan, When a Key Clan member meets a Locks Clan member something happens, It''s covered in mystery though. Then theirs that eccentric God, He is chosen for most clans that deal with martial arts, Like the Turtle, Draconic, and Bear Beastkin. Metaru he was a lot like follower Clyde unfortunately. The Goddesses he has tried to seduce and even succeeded to Date was legendary ¡ª such a Playboy. Also for a Side note, there is an evil race similar to Draconic Beastkin, the Dragonoids except they are 100% scaly and very ferocious. The Patron Deity that they have chosen is aligning with Synthia in this upcoming war. We were planning for a way to stop the upcoming war even though it''s inevitable to do so, Unlike those idiotic, so-called Light and Justice Gods that most of humanity and some of the Beastkin have chosen. They want a war to Exterminate all the Evil races they deem unpure. We discussed how we still needed more allies most of which would be from the ones who haven''t yet chosen a side yet. We concluded that it would take a while to do so, but the two other factions were slowly building up their forces, so we have time yet. It would probably take a couple of years to do so.This narrative has been purloined without the author''s approval. Report any appearances on Amazon. Our meeting had ended, and it was decided that we would also find some more powerful or Unique people to lead are factions from the mortal side of things while gathering our forces as well. In the meantime, I had to help my precious followers get stronger through my Guidance and Love. So I had turned my attention back towards Ryu who was working on overcoming his anger and learning Martial Arts in the process. So during our last couple meetings, I have "convinced." Ryu to tell me about his past, he had dealt with the same problems as a teenager in her World. So we talked about while she was wearing my adorable outfits each time. She had had even gotten in trouble with the with the law enforcement back then. Ryu had gotten over it by agreeing to join something called anger management. He also had the support of his family and friends back then, and after five years he became content and strangely made a complete turn into someone rational and calm almost on the verge of becoming monotone. The outfits I made her wear were purposefully were getting more and more frilly and cute and even revealing each time. I had to help her learn to get over it right? I also had made it so Clyde and Lucy could access his inventory sending the messages them even though they were not followers through their Deity''s permission of course. I also posted more through in clothes to his Inventory. It''s not like I had any ulterior motive behind this. Well, maybe I did. On to the next matter of business, I had been sending a special "Treats" to that Bitch that those Vampires have chosen something to make her a little unstable. No one hurts my precious followers to bad I''m not allowed to do something a little more Extreme. I have had a lot of restrictions forced upon me ¡ª such Lame rules. My other project has been bearing fruits as well, one of my other followers should be eventually meeting up with Ryu sometime in the future. Probably within year or so. He has been the one in charge of gathering my precious followers who are all mine of course as well. Martial Arts of the Cave clan (4) "Every Martial Artist needs the ability to sense their surroundings while also detecting the weak spots on your opponent''s bodies it''s not quite like my essence detection. Which a mutated version of this skill but my goal is to help you achieve the skill sense with this training." Lyte Explained. "Ok, so how do we go about doing this? I asked Well every other day While in your Female form I will be blocking off your senses and for the first part you will have to survive on your own without them for the second part you will do so with Sarah and I attacking you constantly. Clyde further explained. "So you''re no starting off by just attacking me thank goodness," I said somewhat relieved. "Well, you will have to deal with the monsters in the forest attacking you," Sarah Said joining in this conversation. "Well, I guess I didn''t think about that," I said calmly. While my wisdom had Increased and I gained the Skill Serene mind. It seems my Intelligence hasn''t changed much in this form this will is probably a permanent flaw. At first, I couldn''t tell where I was going always running into things, and I also was dealt a lot of damage from attacking beasts. It was painful and disturbing I also realized I was thankful that I had gotten the Serene Mind Skill. Otherwise, I wouldn''t have been able to analyze, and problem solved during this training and died right away. Weeks had passed by while in my male form like usual I was practicing reading the books Lyte left behind and Practicing Mana Control. While my female form I was getting better and better at surviving in the forest. I have even learned to gather food as well as evade Monster attacks running away in the process. It was almost time for me to move onto the next part, but I had not yet learned to attack while doing this again. It was quite tricky after all it took everything I had to survive this Training. According to Clyde, this is how we each develop our style of martial arts as well. One day while I was training I was attacked by mysterious best who was strong enough to deal damage and fast enough to where I couldn''t escape from it. I was going to die unless if I Killed It, I had a flashback of the training Sarah and Clyde have put me through.Unauthorized tale usage: if you spot this story on Amazon, report the violation. I had to use the damaging techniques that Sarah has taught me while using a calm mind while doing so. Then I realized I had to stop thinking and clear my mind, so I did. The beast attacked me and calmly evaded him while striking with the ferocity of a berserker. The battle had ended by me ripping out the beast''s heart. Clyde and Sarah came out from behind the bush and gave me back my senses for a quick bit. "Were you there the whole time?" I asked. I did almost feel someone there. "Yes kid Clyde over here was getting nervous and was about to jump in and save you, but I believed you could do it and stopped him from interfering. Sarah said Hauntingly. "You know I can''t stand when beautiful girls are hurt, and I''m super pissed that beast hurt your gorgeous body. Are you ok? Are you hurt anywhere?," He asked worriedly. "I''m quite beat up I said, but with a days rest Is should be fine," I replied. "For the rest of the day, you will rest and then and when you shift back to female we will move onto part two." Clyde Demanded. So far the rest of the day I rested and waited as Clyde wanted. Today was the beginning of part two, and my senses were removed again. Clyde and Sarh started attacking me I was barely able to keep up with them, and I know they were taking it easy on me. Another week had passed by, and I was struggling still to keep they were relentless, and they were trying harder every time. I was almost at my breaking point both mentally and physically it was even affecting my studying in my male form. Then one day I noticed something I could somehow suddenly sense the attacks coming and I was to able to parry their attacks while somehow able to tell where their openings and were I struck them there. They then decided then to step up their game and get a little more serious. The rest of the day I continued seeing more and more of their attacks. Then somehow even with my senses removed I noticed an announcement.

"I will take a couple of weeks, but you will ready in your female form for the upcoming battle buy the time Lyte comes back." Clyde Declared. Meanwhile Lyte gathering his supplies preparing to return to him while glancing over the Book and vial of blood Trisha gave him before she left to hone Ryu''s Vampire side. Trisha the Descendant of the Progenitor My ancestor was the Progenitor of the Mist clan. His name is Joseph the story goes he was the most brutal and relentless vampire among the Progenitor''s Conquering a nation with an army of slaves at his command and enslaving countless Women to quench his bloodlust. The whole world feared him. One day though he vanished and no one knows where he went. The truth, however, is entirely different I know this because about two hundred years I found a ocked by a strange mechanism. I found this cave while searching for our past. I have always been a bit smarter than most of my race. I studied various fields Alchemy, Ancient civilizations, War, Mathematics etc. Most of my kind were smart don''t get me wrong. But most of my species got lost in their bloodlust and desire to dominate. Their superiority complex was also downright annoying. I found this cave during one of my expeditions. It was recorded in some of our ancient books. Most of these books were mostly worn out throughout the age and barely readable. But I pieced them tother and found this cave and inside this cave was a stone door it had some puzzle lock on it. I had read about these kinds of locks before it took some time and I was able to figure it out and unlock it. There was a Book on a pedestal in the middle of the room with a vial of blood next to it. I opened the book this book looked like it was in perfect condition and the title was called Truth.
It had depicted our ancestor being created From a Goddess named Agatha. Who is Agatha? I questioned. We were told Carly created the Vampire race. The real story, however, goes like this. Agatha was a Goddess, and she decided to make creatures from her likeness. She started with the five progenitors created four of which were known to be ruthless and creating countless Vampire''s and almost enslaving an entire Continent and turning countless races into Vampires. Find this and other great novels on the author''s preferred platform. Support original creators! One, however, Joseph wanted coexistence and Agatha agreed with him pleading to the other four to stop. Instead, though they betrayed Agatha and the four pledged their services to Carly, and she sealed Agatha away in a sealed off dimension. Joseph was infuriated he needed a force to stop them with so he gathered various races and gave them the option to become his clan members by turning to prevent the others rule. Half of them agreed while the other half didn''t want to become vampire''s but allied with him none the less. The battle had lasted for centuries the death count was immeasurable. They were slowly whittling away their enemies and finally the time had come to face the progenitor''s they knew they couldn''t kill them but had to do something to stop them, so they sealed them away in a far off region. The humans, however, betrayed Joseph framed him for countless crimes and sealed him away in an undisclosed space and spread the rumor that he went into solitude far way. Carly saw the opportunity and converted his clan to her. So now she had all the remaining vampire''s under or so she thought. One follower knew the truth he saw the whole thing, and before Joesph was sealed, he gave him a vial of his blood he knew his fate. He also foretold that one day Carly would find a way to release the other four Progenitors. He had hoped one of his kind would find this information and teach the Vampire''s peace, but he had a backup plan if they failed to listen to reason. Which is what the book and the Vial of blood were for it had instructions in the back for a method to give a vampire the potential to get the Advanced class only he had achieved. This Class, however, involved a Dangerous Trial as a condition to get it.
Trisha had tried over the years to convince her people even trying to tell them the truth, but none of them believed they thought she was crazy and ignored her words and after two hundred years nothing changed. They had recently allied themselves with the demons who were hellbent on erasing sentient life that and the destruction of a village of Beastkin that were trying to protect themselves from them. She had seen enough of seeing people''s guts being splattered all over, People being chained up and mutilated, cutting off heads and displaying them all over to taunt them, and now they were starting a war. She has started slipping them minute amounts of holy water in the hoping that would weaken hem and allying herself with the peaceful demon faction. There she was told about Ryu and his circumstances and decided that she would have him undergo the Trial. So she gave the book and potion to Lyte and began preparing for their arrival. Hopefully with the new fledgling vampire''s her clan has she could start over and realize Joseph''s Dream of coexistence this gave her the drive she needed. Hopefully, Ryu would pass the Trial. Lyte spoke very highly of Ryuand his almost overly rational mind and helped stop the war that was about to shake the world. She also knew of the humans potential to betray them again this was also a concern of her and was wary enough not to make the same mistake as Joseph. Sarahs Training Now that Ryu has achieved an advanced class. I was training my new species abilities after my Rank-Up. I was doing in secret before, but now I could train during the day, and I would get my sleep schedule back in order. I was a bit disappointed that Ryu didn''t become a berserker like me. Although the Martial Arts class is different than the other types of specialties, it has incorporated all different fighting styles into it and because of this, unlike the other courses where the skills are all the same. Each Martial Artist has their skills and techniques based on their style; This can also be applied to the Assasin class as well though. I have been slowly raising my level and attack power due to it being a lot harder to do so now. I need more experience and not by just fighting low-level beasts, and I needed to fight something a lot more powerful. In all honesty, most of accumulate during Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. Is this the war of legends I wondered. Well, no use worrying about it know if that were the case I would probably run into them at some point.
Meanwhile in a place at the very edge of the Map A clan of Wolf Beastkin they had just received a divine message from their God Ragna. The message said it''s time to fulfill your oaths you will meet up with wolf Beastkin with silver hair named Sarah. They were all getting ready to Travel to her, but this Journey will take a while, and they had also to prepare themselves for war. Martial Arts of the Cave clan (5) Days have been passing, and I have been Gradually making my style of Martial Arts. I have not only been training with Clyde but with the rest of the Cave clan as well to develop it. All my skills from before I became a Martial Artist have hit the max level of ten. So I have virtually mastered the beginner phase of Fighters. My new set of skills are Silent Gouge, Pressure Point Paralyze, Elemental Aura, Dragon Fighter. The rest of which are just better-honed Strikes whether they are kicking or punching. The next level of fighters also can start adding the elements to enhance their Qi which seems like it might like magic but it''s from the Body''s and Soul''s energy. So my element I can add to my skills is the fire element which was befitting of my Race. Sarah''s Element is Lightning while Clyde''s Element is earth. This ability is the real reason why Martial arts can compete with magic in the first place. Except the fact Magic Spells are a lot more potent with their elements still. The new skills added to the advanced class also have a higher max level of Fifty. Which is also the level you can rank up in this world, and you can learn a lot more of them because you have a specialization now. I have also been given a new whole new set of attire since my old clothes were shattered and torn to pieces and its smelled horrible the remaining parts from overuse as well which was were very embarrassing. Now I have a lot more battle outfits aside from the embarrassing costumes from Lucy which had no combat use what so ever. I have also finally attained a weapon also for my fighting especially since striking doesn''t always ensure a victory, especially against the high-level people and monsters. It was a Spear with a retractable blade that could also be useful as a staff. Most of my existing skills could also be applied to it as well. Sarah has one as well she faces stronger opponents which is a giant War Ax which fits her class, but it looks bigger than her entire body. Clyde had a set of daggers he could use when needed. Having was yet another way we could compete with magic here. Since Magic was powerful enough, that it was that overpowered. So Fighters could only compete with a mixture of elemental aura and weapons. I have also just mastered the beginner stage of my weapon. The ability, not a skill was called Weapon Mastery and was divided into the categories of Novice, Advanced, Expert, and Master Class. This ability had nothing to with Level, Classes, or even Rank-Ups. It was pure effort nothing more nothing less. So the more training and experience you put into it. Time was flying by I have been here for five months. The problem though was that my Vampire form had made little to no progress as I had no Specialities to choose from.The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. My skills were almost all max level, they were all level 8 or 9''s, but they haven''t shown any progress for the last two months. It was evident that the only way that this would happen is a new class. For some reason, not even Lyte''s specialty had shown up as an option for me to choose even if though I knew some of his spells and should''ve met the requirements This issue was probably due to the fact of my Vampire nature I concluded. I only suck blood when I know I''m about to turn blood crazed. I''m somewhat half-assed at being a vampire. Today Lyte had finally returned from his mission, and he had secured some allies it seems. This Lyte, however, was completely different from the usual Lyte he seemed unusually severe. Due to not seeing him for a while, I thought he would mock Sarah or me or have that usual full evil smile thing going on. I was in my Vampire form today, so I was able to reason something terrible was about to happen to me. What could it be? "Ryu I have a way for you to achieve a new Class." He said rather blatantly. Wasn''t that a good thing why does he have that tone and expression on his face then. "What is that I asked? I asked I was being pressured from the immense amount of tension and Aura around me. Trials of Blood (Inner Demons) My past had been nothing but mistakes. I have made many errors. That I wish I could go back and redo. I always would joke to my friendsabout how I would beat my past self up If I ever time traveled. There was some truth in those jokes though. I wouldknock some sense into my past self if that ever happened. Deep down though I was also afraid of making the same mistakes which caused my current personality of being socially awkward and almost emotionally stunned, there was always a very temptingvoice in the back of my head that wanted violenceand death. Theydon''t care about you; They will betray youlike all the restof them.Your so-called friends don''t even care about you. Show them who''s boss. How dare they underestimate you. Show them you''re not weak prove them wrong,Who do they think they are? It''s in the way of your goals destroy it why don''t you? The voice also wanted revenge against those who have wronged me. They betrayed you should show them how your suffering feels. She pretended to love you and then turned the school against you. She deserves to die. Lately, as my angerhas got better, there has been a new voice emerging that conflicts with the other voice though. This Voice says things opposite of my other one. It was more rationaland was more emotionallymute. Why should you care? You need the money so no matter what the mental abuse or physical strainyou''re put through, so what is the point of getting angry? It also said things like there''s no need to get sad it''s just death, Why should you feel sad? Does any of the things you have wanted to achieve even matter? Why bother with love isn''t life excellent enough as it is? There Overestimating you, you''re just an average person there''s no point in furthering yourself. The voices are arguingmy sanity intact by indulging in my hobbies like Reading, Playing video games or watching Anime. At one point though before I got help, I overindulgedin these activities which ended up not coming out for a year except to getfood and other necessities which I was leeching ofmy parents for, This was also when I was in my chuni phase as well. My thoughts during my chuni phase consisted of ideas like beside me thinking I was the chosen one. I must be struggling with these voices for a reason; a higher power is testing me, I must have something special I''m supposed to do inevitable afterward that I needed the job to maintain these hobbies. So I found an excellent paying Part-timejob. I was also making sure I still hung out with my friends, so myfamily didn''t think I was isolated in my apartment by myself again. There still is instability even after coming to this world. I also had to re-learn how to controlmy anger recently as a female, but the voice was still there. I have also started being able to expressemotion as a male, but it''s the same situation as the other one the voice is still there.
I have drunk that vial of blood, experiencing pain that dared not even dream of before and now I''m in a pitch black void after with two people who look like me. One had my female body. The second one had my male body. The First Trial was to conquer my inner demons. "I represent all the emotional side, andI am also the owner of the first voice, so I have been with you from the beginning. You have always wanted pure destruction and gore. You wanted people to pay for hurting you, Stealing from you or overall just using you, or that''s what you thought after all." The female said. "No that''s,exactly what it was but I knew even that was petty of me to do so I was young and ignorant, and I didn''t know better except through by using my hands and feet," I replied trying to convince myself of this. This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version. "Stop lying to yourself and don''t listen to that other voice. Youwanted the world to burn you wanted death and destruction of everyone you thought they were all beneath you."The girl mockingly said. "No, I fucking didn''t" I snapped, damn it I was getting angry where is all this emotion coming from, yet I can''t let her win. Don''t let that Girl rile you up, remember the phrase that helped you get over your emotions, I don''t care right? Don''t let that chemical reaction tell you otherwise. "Stop at playing being pure you know full didn''t have the power to door, and I''m not a fucking chemical reaction, and you know it. Remember that time you punched that counseloryou hit him in a spot if youhad any significant amount of strength back then it would''ve been fatal to him." She replied while at first snapping to the guy to then mocking me. "That was his.... no,it was my fault for not listening to reason and going into a blind Rage and attacking him. I responded I was Starting to get overcome by my emotions. "Yes, let''s think about it logically now don''t let those reactions bother you listen to reason. You did deal with those things a lot better at work later on the right? Your bosses forced numerous tasks on you and even though you ended up getting sick and so what if you ended up hospitalized for it a couple of times?You needed the money, right? "I knew I shouldn''t have pushed myself so hard, but I was desperate for the money to maintain my hobbies, while also being able to do things with my friends," I answered meekly. "Sure let''s call it a blind rage even though you secretly wanted it didn''t you. I also know for a fact that you have pictured deaths of countless people in the gruesome ways possible sometimes they even entered your dream."She was laughing like a mad man and as she was saying these things while ignoring the boy this time. "They told me all those dreams were just caused by me watchingtoo much tv, so your lies have no basis here," I said this as the memories of those dreams are rushing back to my mind. ame tv now also you know you only denied the having dreams about part of it right? You didn''t even mention the ones during the day, Oh that''s right I remember the excuse you used back then you pretended that those thoughts were not your own, so you claimed you were possessedright? She asked as she was laughing in an annoyingly high pitched tone. "Does that even matter those chemicals reactions can also cause some delusions right? The boy commented to the girl while shrugging his shoulders. ''s not entirely true either" I replied this time all the emotion was draining from me. "Really what about that one time that women who died you were unusually attached to her as a kid weren''t? What about when you''re Grandpa died you showed absolutely no emotion there either" He stated. "I didn''t know how to process it properlyyet." I declared. "Now you''re just making excuses again remember when you''re friend got fired because he expressed his emotions to one of his coworkers you know full well that he did it correctlythe guy was just offended for no reason and that''s why he got fired, What was your response again"? "The girl interjected this time you just thought he was a whiny bitch and were annoyed at him. "That was true though what I said back then was accurate, and I didn''t think he was a "whiny bitch," I answered. "Yes it was true you should never tell anyone how you feel right or should I say a different way no one cares so why should I."The boy stated. "That doesn''t dictate anything about me. I stated. This trial was starting to make me get dull. "What about that time that guy, your classmate, committed suicide, You felt like nothing even significant happened right? "The girl interjected again this time "You wanted him to die right? He was always mocking you or just clicked his tongue whenever he saw you; he deserved to die a much more gruesome though maybe having his organs ripped out of him would have been amazing. "I never tried to think like that; I was ashamed of myself for even thinking those things, I pretended to not care about it. I commented while the emotions were overwhelming me, I struggled to cope during with that at the time and was ashamed of myself. One of your high school friends was sad about it, wasn''t she? You realized you could do nothing about it since you felt nothing about it, the ironic part is later you realized she committed suicide as well and you felt nothing right? The boy is continuously asking these questions to prove that I didn''t care. "That broke me I cared about that girl she was the first girl who didn''t try to betray me we even started a club togetherand went to various cons tother as well. After high school, though she stopped talking to me, so I thought she didn''t care about me after all, and so I blocked her out of my mind and some new friends Ironically none of them were females. Then two years later I learned about her suicide, I was devastated by this. I forced myself through it though I can''t let people see these emotions I thought. The boy and girl were drowning me in an endless void of darkness. I was going back and forth from being super emotional to feeling nothing at all. It felt like eons had passed by as I was going through this torture. Yes, It was torture it felt like at any moment my whole being would shatter. They seemed bored of me after a while and started arguing with each other ignoring my existence, was I not even worth all this? Did I make a mistake somewhere or was my very existence to blame? What was my purpose again? What was I supposed to be doing right now? Then I saw a memory from when I first saw the horrors of this world. It was from when I saw the tragedy of Sarah''s village. I saw her in pure rage, but I didn''t go into a blind rage this time. I also didn''t try to brush it off like and pretend I didn''t care by rationalizing it. I was feeling my usual rage while rationally thinking about my next move. It was the first time my rationality and emotions were working together in harmony. Maybe that was the key here. I have been essentially denying both parts of myself causing me from going to one extreme to another. Why did have these two extremes in the first place though? Well for know I shouldn''t worry about that and work on using these two factors in harmony. I have new goals that need to be accomplished, and to do that I need to get stronger. I have after almosttwenty-two years of my life, have found a goal to work towards and achieve. I suddenly have realized that the voices have gone quiet. I must have past the first trial as my surroundings were beginning to change. The Origin of Martial Artists, and the Trial of Clydes Origin The World we live in is called Gormod. Classes, Levels, and Rank Up''s have existedsince the creation of this world. Well, I''m not going to much into detail here''s about how everything started.I will tell you however about my Classes Creation though. Martial Artists like me always have been the most diverse in our skills because of our Specialization. So you would think we entirely overpower all the other fighter classes. That, however, is inaccuratewe have two very definitiveweaknesses the first is since the style is different with each practitioner it takes a lot longer to master, the second is that after a while we stop advancing at all the experience we gain and training does nothing until we do a trial to get past this. So in actuality, until we accomplish the first two other fighter classes have an advantage over us. The reason for this was the god who invented this class Metaru didn''t want us to get over conceited with our power, so we had to prove ourselves to him. There is another unfortunatething during the creationof this class an Evil God interferedwith our trials to convert us into his servants. Transforming into a demonic race based on the species we were original. When Metaru had found out about this God''s interference, he was enraged who wouldn''tbe; it was however beyond his power to stop him though. There was a war because of this between the pure and impure the scale of this war wasn''t big like The Human demon war or the Vampire war, no one quite remembers about our fight at all. It ended with numerous losses on each side both deciding not to continue "Officially" we ended up becoming of mortal enemies with each other, and we would try to stop them after they were about or did commit a seriouscrime. So we ended up getting divided into two factions because of this. If we passed, we would still be pure and level up again and if we failed we would become impurebeings serving this evil god. Well, they were able to level up again also, So it was a very tempting offer. The impure beings are joining the demon''s in that army I hear. I guess it was inevitable that I would possibly have to face some of my former comrades in this war. Now back to what the Trialor Trials consisted. We areto understand our origins for some it''s theirspecies origin but for otherswho have a unique quirklike a particular skill or a mutation they have to figure out their species origin and the origin or reason they have that rarity. We have to kill a creature that that has been harming the balance whether it be from the Light or Dark side. We are proving Honor by completing a task that Metaruchooses with a method that we have to figure out ourselves. The Scales Trial, We must balance ourselves in neither light or darkness but the harmony between both. They show us flashbacks where an overwhelmingly amount of light or a world full of darkness have had negative impacts onthe world aroundus. During these trials, Kendall, the evil god who made the impure faction will try to tempt us to due to the oppositelike a demon whisperingin our ears. I had stopped gaining any experience after level 30. So it was time for me to undergo this trial. I had already overcome the first weakness of mastering my style though. For the first trial, I have to understand the Cave clans origins and probably why I have the essence detection ability.
I had made it to Zomaria which is where the trials started; it took a month to get there where we go to an altar to take the first trial and receive instructions for the others their afterward. Thus the first trail started, the first flashback to the past where my clan first has begun, The scenery around me began to change, It took me to a period in history where various other races existed, there however a lot of species not yet created also. There was a problem however thereit was plagued by a never-ending war, the balance of dark and light were entirely out of balance I saw demons destroying the other races torturing them killing them before their loved ones and other sorts of grotesque things. The landscape painted red by thecolor of blood and organs, while the demons were laughing and mocking them in the process, the Dark side was utterly dominating the light side. The gods split upon on how to deal with this the light Deity''s who were overall purists had decided to create Humans and give them unique adaptabilities like adapting to various climates, and they excelled at using the light element. The god that created my clan, however, realized,that this would make the light side more dominant so he along with some other gods created species that could maintain the balance instead. He was right the humans not only destroyed the demons but all the other species that weren''t humans. Their light element was almost blinding the entire area. There was nothing left like blood or guts; there erased their enemies instead of the grotesquemurders the demons did. It was like the humans completely denied there very essence with this. So the god put his plan into action, he was the one who also designed the martial arts specialization. Metaru created the Cave clan with the personality of being passive and overall neutral but ferocious when needed for the balance. Some of the other gods whether evil or good had followed suite afterward not wanting the balance ruined.This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there. The first of our tribehad acted as mediators between the two factions. They saw Villages and Cities burned to the ground, bodies, blood, and entrailsscattered all over. It wasn''t just Human corpses it was Beastkin another supernatural creature remains as well. They also witnessed complete annihilationof creatures with nothing left remaining. The balance changed constantly going one way or another each era. The prejudicewas with all the races it seemed. They all viewed themselves as the superior species. Sometimes there would be a balance the scenery was now beautiful flowers growing everywhere there was still death. It was a lot less common though, and it was equal between the races. One idea wouldcompletely change this usually from who detested this peace. These tragedies have caused us to be overly wary of many different races, so we ended up isolating our clan soon the other Beastkinraces had followed suit choosing to remain in villages. Theended had finished. Afterward, I heard a voice, "It was entirely the human''s fault see how theirdevelopment has negatively impacted the world around us, killing of various animals and species to satisfy their greed for food and their twisted idea of "purity." This Voice must be the evil God Kendall trying to tempt me the problem was he was not entirely wrong we hunt to survive, humans want more, and their idea of purity is completely messed up. The demons want the destruction of all Beastkin and Humans, so they''re just as bad though. I thought to myself. The voice, however, read my thoughts and asked."Are they though? How many supernatural species are there compared to humans? Most demons want Beastkin also gone because they lean more toward the human''s side right?." "What about the complete chaos there was before humans came into being then?," I Inquired, the voice then went silent.
The next flashback was starting I was back in my village the scenery was the same. A bear Beastkin was talking to the chief. He was to go on a mission to take down an impure. He was about my height and had the same face as me. There was another village of bearBeastkin sending someone as well they looked like us but had white ears and hair. It was a girl who also had some of my traits like the shape of her nose and ears. This clan excelled in the Assassination class. These two knew each other and were secretly lovers. They were going to tell their chiefs about their love after killing this impure. This impure was almost on the verge of ranking up, so they needed to eliminate the threat before it happened they didn''t know the name of this polluted one. They got a description of this impure he looked just like a bear but a bit more humanoid. He left a trail of corpses wherever he went he was headed to the location of some other impure. They went on to intercept him. They caught up to him in an of couple days it was on a faraway mountain almost at the summit. He was eating what looked to be like a child from a human village who looked no more than eight years old. The impure were known for eating humans. They usually wanted one with more meat on them though. The small town the couple had passed by earlier was empty it was on the small side. It was probably the taintedone that did this the couple had thought. The kid was still safe he could have his limbs regenerated, so they opted to stop the beast before he finished. The guy distracted the creature with his skills while the girl sneaked behind and tried to sneak up behind him and attack his vitals. Thisattack, however, didn''t work because the impure one had already Ranked up. So it would take more than just the girl''s daggers to puncture his skin. They had to work in perfect harmony to defeat it. Thisstrategy was a difficultone as they also were trying to save the human child as well. Fortunately, they were both proficient in the sense skill so they could aim when the impure one had an opening. They pretended to escape they were both proficient at hiding as well. So the tainted one believed they were gone as they were both fast and with it not even noticing it they grabbed the kid in the process. They gave the kid a potion to regenerate his limbs and organs, that potion provided by the male''s chiefhe gave it to him before leaving the village just in case of an emergency where they were one of them severely injured. They knew that this was a risk for them, they both didn''t want the kid to die though. They then told the kid the location to male''s village to where they shared the information of the male''s communityto the kid as well as the direction along with areas of where to get food along the way. The kid ran away once they were for sure the beast was out of sight of course. They waited until he was far enough way to attack the impure one. The girl said "If we survive this mission I have something to tell you," the guy could guess to what she was going to say. This creature had to die,so they would have to risk this for the sake of the balance no matter what the consequence. They both sneaked up to the beast to attack the creature however was amused, he had gotten more used to his new species from his current rank up, and the fact that he was impure meant he had some not so true desires. He could now tell they were coming; he pretended to let the kid go as the boy was as he was now fund of this amusement and desired to tear them apart and before they died to tell them that it could catch up to the kid at any time and kill him he would follow through this of course. The couple was stopped midway between the attack and knocked back aways during this the tainted one took some of their fingers off to show them as they were landing to the ground. The couple knew there was more to him even after finding out about his rank up they had a final ace up their sleeve they probably wouldn''t be alive afterward it was a suicide move. It was a combo move they yet to perfect that combined both of their specialties they hadn''t fixed the bugs in this again. So the backlash was immense. They combined their Elemental aura''s of water and electricity into their attack and lunged at the opponent. The tainted thought he would survive it by blocking it. His element was fire though so even if he channeled it during the block, it would still kill him which it did. The male died instantly the female somehow survived, she was however to injured to move. She was devastated why did only she survive? The male, however, had a smile on his face she realized he took on the brunt of it by himself. He was a hypocrite; she knew he had thought they both had to risk themselves as well as him knowing she was pregnant. He couldn''t follow through with it and desired to protect her and the child with that unimaginable will of his he chose to take it on himself. Half of the day had passed by, and the kid who they had rescued returned. Why did he return? She thought, she couldn''t talk though he voicebox was damaged and the boy somehow with his weak body dragged her all the way back to the male''s village. The chief didn''t have any more potions left they were scarce and would take a year to find or produce a new one. He knew that she would eventually die anyway he, however, thought it would only be a couple of days. She was somehow, however, to survive for nine months passing away slightly after her child was born. The flashback had then had ended. His parents had died a very tragic death, and he was never able to meet these people with a beautiful love between each otheras well as willpowers that only he had heard about in the legends of old. Clyde was shocked as he realized the reason he could sense essences was that his parents had been superbly efficient with the "sense" skill, that stemmed from entirely different classes. "Yeah, but they still left you didn''t they were never around you because they died, by sacrificing the kid. However, they could have escaped right?" The voice interjected. "They would have been shunned by their entire clans then though for failing to save the kid or killing the impure," I stated. "They could have started new lives elsewhere wasn''t that important enough for a child." He declared. I ignored him I knew he wasn''t right although it was getting harder to listen to him, A new Voice then said, "You have passed the first trial as for the next trials you shall have to"... Sarah, The fight against the Ranked up Vampire Vince Before we split up, I asked Lyte about some about some of the stronger people who allied with that vampire clan. So I can blow off some steam while also gaining the experienceto level up. I should increasemy weaponproficiency as well since I was only at the advanced level. They were three noticeablepeople he mentioned a Vampire named Vince, a Demoness named Silcy, and the Shifter Socon. Theywere known to work alone, and they have all ranked up, they are allied with the Demon Army as well naturally. Except when they worked together trying to eliminate my clan. Doesn''t that seem a bit much for my clan? As much I like to say that we great warriors did we need that extra effort to take us down? They had helped take down our villageby dealing with our strongest Clan members. There seems a bit more to this, That can wait, I need to kill this damn Vamp first. It''s been two weeks since I split up from Ryu and the gang. Vince was my first target; he has singlehandedlywiped out villages before any other people who have also ranked up appeared to stop him. Leaving mountains of corpses in his wake, becausehe had ranked up he could make thralls. Which Vince would of course by turning people and end up having them attackthere own loved ones, and after the entire village was wiped out, he would kill all then kill the thralls he made. He was a show-off, his enemies knew it was him they could never catch him though. He originatedfrom the Uta Vampire Clan. Which was know for its Stealth like abilities, Most of them were Assasins. Whereas the Mist clan to which were looking to defeat mostly were Blood Mages,Which dealt with the manipulation of blood and sacrificing bloodfor a power boost and the darkmagic. I''ve been following his trail after some advice I got from Lyte on how to catch him. He was known for hating canine based Beastkin. That was weaknesshe would try to kill them no matter the cost even they had Ranked up. So all I had to do was get close to him, and he would attack me instantly. I saw a couple of the villages on my journey to track him down corpses everywhere; I could smell the dead thralls among them as well as well. They had still had the look of shock on their faces even after death. You could also tell none of the attacks were dealt with by him, which meant there was no proof he did itof course. I took a bit, buthe finally noticed my presence. I could smell that horrid vampire stench from a mile away.Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site. There also seemed to be someone else accompanying him. I thought he liked to work alone. I waited, but I didn''t see him I saw my auntLuciainsteadattacking me from behind trying to rip out my heart with that Berserker technique I use. "Hehehe" I heard a chuckle come from by somewhere nearby. "How do you like my thrall, by the looks on your face and overall similar looks to this pet of mine, I take it you know this mutt," The vampire said. mockingly. "Fucker, You won''t die very peacefullyI will make sure of it." I cussed. My aunt continued her attack against me with no emotion what so ever in her face. "Hey want to know how I acquiredher; I had to kill this one ranker named Royright?" "Yeah, you better not of"... I tried to say, but he interrupted me and continued, I couldn''t kill him just my skills which are pretty good I might add being an assassin I can do more than make Thralls. So I used his wife to get his guard down then I attacked him fatally injuring him I left the wife to finish him off though." "I was left Speechless, my uncle, Roy had been the one teach me the ways of the Berserker, He also showed me the importance of family. To die like that, no one should have to through that. "Want to know why I kept her instead of throwing her away like the usual thrall?" "I don''t fucking care anymore you messed with my family or that I have to kill her," I retorted. "You''re just...." the vampire was trying to tell me that I wouldn''t kill her I stopped him mid-rant by decapitating my aunts head with my war ax. "Are you heartless? You just killed your aunt. He snapped, his plan at having me suffer failed, so he was upset. "I''m not going to hold back because I''m facing my aunt, plus my aunt would want me to end her after being used by a damn vamp," I declared having enough of this vampire talking. He went silent he was left speechless that only lasted for a quick second. "Well I had to kill her later anyway I just wanted some amusement," he sighed suddenly vanishing and erasing his aura as a true Assasin should. Why did he "have" to kill her anyway though? "I do not doubt that you can do more than make thralls, You''re a ranker after all so let''s fight for real." I declared. Now I need to figure out when he is going to attack me, so I waited in silence, I noticed some arrows coming. However, I was too late seeing them, so I took some damage. Thisinjury even though it''s minimal, however, could be my advantage, he seemed arrogant, so if I fake that I''m too injured to move he will come close to finish me off that will be my chance. This act has to be realistic though so I took some more arrows because I knew he wasn''t stupid enough to think a couple would injure me that much. I fell to the ground "trying" to get back up and dropping down a couple of times and then stopped. He noticed I was struggling he waited a bit still though, but he finally came up from behind me to finish me off. As he got close, I swiftly grabbed my ax and chopped off his head. The rest of his body was still trying to attack me it wouldn''t stop like he was working his hardest to end me. Why would he try to kill me instead of trying to save himself by attaching his head back on? I understand hating our species, but he should''ve healed himself rankers are usually rational enough to do this. The fucker It was about time to end this battle though. Knowing that he could regenerate as Rankers could especially Vampires, I ripped out his heart and crushed into nothingness in existence. Did he have to deny my existence that much? Vampires had always retreated when there were about to lose so why didn''t this one? I finally got some significant experience and leveled up twice whereas nothing could even give me anything after I ranked up. My next target was Slicy her whereabouts would take a couple of weeks to get to; I don''t know anything about her except that she is an expert Greatsword wielder and of course a Ranker. So this will probably be an excellent way. To gain experienceusing my weapon I will also be training on the way there so I should be ready to face her by then. I also have to squeeze out why they were so desperate to kill us off even if it meant their death. I wonder why there wasn''t much Info on her though? Given the fact she''s known for being proficient at using agiant sword.

Trials of Blood (Covered in Blood) My surroundings were changing, The scenery was that of a peaceful kingdom, People were doing everyday things like shopping at the market, working on the farms, families eating together or soldiers patrolling the big cities. There were also unfortunate things like debt collectors and homeless people, but that was an ordinary thing no matter the era. When I noticed something, peculiar people were slowly disappearing as time was passing by which was something that shouldn¡¯t be happening, Time had gone by, and a third of the kingdom was gone. Some cities were completely barren of life whatsoever; I don''t like where this is going to I thought. One day however they all re-appeared, not as humans but as an army of vampires and thralls led by four people, those four people were the Evil Vampire Progenitors. I saw them do horrible things, former lovers, killing each other, Parents killing their children and vice versa. There were blood and guts splattered everywhere, corpses piled on the streets, and the numerous creations of new Vampires and Thralls. One day however there three leaders were sealed and a majority of the vampires were overwhelmed, so they fled. Their disappearance was due to the interference of Joseph; he sealed them off hoping that the vampires would change their ways under his guidance,Joseph was then betrayed by those humans and sealed away as we read in the book. Even with the four leaders sealed, they still committed these vile acts, they just did it more secretly and divided themselves into four clans,Each with separate ideas and methods on how things should be, each of them with their ways of killing. The first clan of Vampires were assassins; I saw vampires secretly assassinating people leaving no trace of their presence. I saw people getting killed these people were usually those with talent, or high ranking government officials that would pose a threat to them in the future; sometimes they would also recruit these talents into their ranks if they had the right ideals. I also saw them killing just for the fun of it they would turn females and then they would have them execute their lovers who were generally the type who cared about their country¡¯s or clan¡¯s future and had a strong sense of justice. Their deaths had halted the human progression and probably one of the main reasons the majority of them are religious zealots. The Second Clan of Vampires were infiltrators they were kind of like assassins, but they focused on mind-altering magic. They would sneak into governments and clans and try to tear them apart from the inside out. I saw now nameless kingdoms fall into ruin by the Vampires sneaking and causing civil wars or have them all kill each other in general. Leaving mountains of corpses at the end, they did let some of their victims live; they needed a supply of blood and recruits after all. There were not always successful of course since humans have been developing counters against them. I can understand at least a little why no trusts each other in this world know with mind-altering magic existing with vampire mages being able to use it, and I''m guessing not just vampires can use it. It would then turn into a battle of who could counter the other faster or just how powerful their mind-altering magic was in those cases. I think Vampires have a fetish for this, but I also saw them turning loved turning couples, families, and clans against each other as well. However, they excelled, and unlike the assassins who just switched them into vampires or thralls, they used mind magic instead.The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. The third clan was just a bunch of muscle heads they excelled at weaponry usually using their giant axes, greatswords, and war hammers. They preferred lots of blood and gore they weren¡¯t at all silent about how they killed people nor did they use any magic they just their large weapons usually enhanced with the dark attribute of course. I saw numerous decapitations heads rolling over the place, bodies crushed without any trace of how they once looked. I also saw they also liked to sometimes kill barehanded by ripping out their numerous organs even after they were dead. I saw they also enjoyed torturing their victims, visions of them ripping off parts of their victim''s bodies and have them beg for their death they even made bets on how fast they would give in and have competitions for it as well. They were berserkers, after all, they were just a hundred times worse than anything I have seen Sarah do. They turned people who had the talent to be a Berserkers so essentially people with rage issues or people who have the most muscles. They left only the women alive for their blood supply and ¡°other things¡¯, otherwise besides the recruits and the women, they all died. People eventually countered them by having more mages around, that was their bane I saw mages wiping them out before they even attacked them. The fourth clan was Blood mages they would typically use dark magic. I saw them use their Dark magic to disintegrate villages and I saw them blowing people up by controlling the blood in their bodies. The Disintegration magic is a lot like the light magic humans use; nothing remains afterward. I saw them also using people as sacrifice the effect of these sacrifices which would a cause small villages and towns to disappear, that was however only a select few who could do this they were always Rankers that could use those spells. Their weakness was close combat that would destroy them before they could even cast their spells which they were a lot of close combatants I might add. They were immeasurable lives lost thanks; this gave me a considerable distaste for the Vampire race in general. They just did what they pleased they were like children who were never taught wrong from right. There was only one good vampire I know of, and that''s the one that helped Ltye. It was quite possibly the only reason she betrayed them in the first reason is that she read that book, the visions of many races, killed in all these differentoccurrences were ongoing. No one could annihilate them after a couple was gone new ones popped up by turning them, plus they could also breed with each other creating offspring. They just kept killing people, turning, or enslaving them it was their philosophy, It was as if it was their very reason for existing. I saw I noticed a majority of their targets were the canine Beastkin; they were like water and oil. The question is why though? From what I read about Joseph It was possible for Vampires to be good, yet why did they it seem like there was no cure for their madness? The reason I have seen all these things I¡¯m probably supposed to figure out the problem that caused this. From what I saw they always craved blood in on way another not just by drinking it, there was still blood splattered everywhere like it was a must, they must have all been driven mad by their the blood lust. Then some new visions appeared. It was their meeting with the goddess Carly who kept on telling them things like, Why should you have to control your bloodlust isn¡¯t normal to go after people for their blood? She seemed to convince a lot of them, they were not in the wrong or so they believed. She also said things those who didn¡¯t believe they should kill other species were convinced by her saying things like, they tried to wipe your kind out you should seek revenge against them. She told them things like this over and over again even going to the point of whispering it in the back of their minds when not meeting. Over time this caused more and more chaos while the other races kept on having to adapt for their increasingly vile methods. So the steps they need to take is to control their bloodlust and somehow block their connection to Carly. For some Vampires, it wouldn''t be possible for the rankers who were near immortal or the other ones have lived over fifty years. They were already too far gone, but we could try to change the mind of the newer vampires of that generation and block out her control on them. So, in general, we have to find a way to our control bloodlust and for the other block Carly out of their heads. The second method and most difficult I can only think of one approach to break free of Carly¡¯s control this with was freeing the actual goddess who created the Vampires. I should probably free Joseph. First, he might know how to release her or at least see the method she was sealed. The only problem is that not even I haven''t learned how to control my blood lust yet. I will go into a mad frenzy if I don''t have any blood, This is in itself is a huge disadvantage to me. Wasn''t the next trial supposed to be something like this? Once again my surroundings were changing I was in a closed of cave¡­.
