“…how did this happen?”

Confused, Obor looked around.

none.

No matter how much I looked, there was no trace.

“How is this possible?”

In order to catch him securely, he took the time to build a barrier and succeeded in locking him in.

Read at readwn.com

Jinhyeol himself became the core, and dozens of vampires formed the skeleton.

Even so, he even checked him himself just in case…

“By the way, did you succeed in escaping the barrier by moving through space?”

Does that mean his level was that high?

Enough to make fun of all of them?

“There is nothing wrong with the barrier. No sign of his escape was found.”

A pure-blood, whose specialty is blood magic, approached and reported again.

It had already been checked several times.

He could have pretended to have disappeared and hid and waited for the barrier to be lifted.

So, while maintaining the barrier to the end, he personally checked the inside several times.

Also, if he really succeeded in breaking through the barrier, he sent an investigation to catch any traces of it…

‘It evaporated without a trace.’

was thoroughly bullied.

They raided the hideout, seized the fragments, and destroyed the vampires in this branch.

Even so, they waited patiently in the city until they came, eventually mocking them and leisurely disappearing.

Quajik—!

The floor near Obor exploded.

His surroundings shattered and cracks spread.

“You dare to play with me? Hans… Hans-!”

Obor, who vomited his anger for a while, caught his breath and looked at his subordinates who were waiting around him.

Five pure blood and over twenty remaining blood.

“Search the city and its surroundings. Do not miss even the smallest traces and investigate thoroughly!”

“”Yes!””

At his command, the vampires were scattered.

Obor looked around the place where Hans was last.

“Damn—”

The moment I made a promise that I would definitely pay for this shame while grinding my teeth.

“Oh… Obor-sama! It’s a big deal!”

The men who had just left came hurriedly.

“What? Did he do anything?”

The first thing that comes to mind is that Hans had done something before he disappeared.

But the problem was a little more serious.

“A group of troops, including the Holy Knights of the Protestant Order and the Battle Priest, surrounded the area!”

“…why are they all of a sudden? No, how did I not notice until I got here?”

A special combat unit of the Shinshin Church dispatched to prevent the resurrection of the Immortal King.

In order to prevent the target from escaping and noticing their approach first, even the archbishop participated and hid the energy with a large-scale holy method.

As he approached in such a secret way, at some point he could not trace the energy of the Immortal King, so he quickly blocked the periphery and surrounded the center.

“…you fell into his trap. The reason that he stayed in the city and lured us was with this intention from the beginning!”

I don’t know how they got the Jusin Church to dig a trap.

However, it was clear that he had been playing around with his scheme until the very end.

“Everyone gathers and breaks through in one direction! You have to get out before dawn. Hurry up!”

I could feel the strong divine powers approaching this way quickly.

They were the symbols of the church’s power, the paladins.

And one of them has a particularly strong energy.

‘sh*t! Even paladins were mobilized!’

The pinnacle of paladins who reached the master level.

He was a strong man who could never be ignored.

“Yes you bastard, Hans! Even the bastards who pledged themselves in reverse! I will definitely pay you back—!”

Thus, the Immortal King subjugation of the Gods Church and the vampire clan Brokoslac collided head-on.

It was around the time Han Sung-hyun was kicking the blanket.

***

“Uh-huh, I’m hungry.”

I put down the tattered blanket, picked up my phone, and ordered chicken.

Peace came to my heart, probably thanks to kicking the blanket for a while and radiating my heart.

There must also be a virtue of 「Myeongkyung Jisoo」 in being able to calm down quickly.

‘It seems that I have developed tolerance thanks to the skill. Now I think I can play the lines more brazenly!’

I really don’t want to go there though.

“By the way, Hans has been summoned again. uhh.”

I wouldn’t have been able to roam freely in this world anyway, but I thought I’d do it until I could…

‘I didn’t know the blood would come out. Did I just leave the city right away?’

By absorbing another fragment, it evolved into ‘Acrich’ and was in a state of full of confidence.

So I thought I could get away with it in moderation.

‘It was stronger than I thought. If we fight properly, we can win, but…’

There’s no advantage to fighting right now, so it’s better to just avoid it.

It’s only been a few days since Hans obtained “Forbidden Knowledge”, so if given time, he will become stronger in the future.

The final decision will be enough for me then.

‘The extraction of the source of 「Immortal」 is a bit vague for immediate use.’

By absorbing the second fragment, it evolved from an incomplete Demilich to an Archrich, skipping the intermediate stage, Lich.

It was such a skill, but it seemed difficult to use properly.

If it is the origin of Hans, it must mean a heart made by fusion with fragments.

It would be great if it could be used while stored on a safe earth, but I was skeptical that the black magic of the heart located in another dimension would be transmitted to Hans properly.

‘Even with 「Avatar」 skill, you can’t directly deliver energy.’

If that happens, Hans without his heart’s black magic support would be a mere tin can skeleton.

It’s better to have Hans, who can’t be easily defeated by strong force and can be reverse-summoned at any time.

Still, it wasn’t useless.

If you protect your heart somehow, even if your limbs become powder, they will be restored in an instant with near-infinite black magic.

‘We can study that part in the future. However, training at Auterica is advantageous in terms of time. If Heinz gets further away from Ajantu, I’ll have to send him back.’

Now Heinz II had arrived in Tillak City with his companions, and was conducting dissemination and information gathering.

As a vampire, there was nothing good to stay close to their sphere of influence for a long time, so he planned to move further.

Fortunately, he became pure blood and was able to hide his status as a vampire well.

‘No, I wouldn’t think he was already dead in the first place. Hans should have played a game like this.’

Still, there’s nothing good about being noticed, so you should avoid it as much as possible.

“Still, I have gained a lot. Heinz II also gained a useful force, and Hans absorbed another shard.”

He also obtained all kinds of wealth and magic tools.

It was a very satisfactory result.

“Since I was active, I must have accumulated quite a bit of karma, right? Let’s see how long until the next enhancement of the unique skill… huh?”

I opened the karma shop and checked the figures, and it hardened for a while.

『Enhance Unique Skills (700,000)』

『Retained Karma – 731,002』

“…is this really giving this generously?”

It must have been that there wasn’t much karma left after using it to evenly increase physical abilities a while ago.

Suddenly, I saw that it was full of karma.

It is said that Clan Brokoslak is in the top three in the vampire world, but they are a minority race in Auterica, and Ajantu was only a small town on the outskirts.

“Is that why the Fragments of the Immortal King are worth that much? Maybe it was the vampires and the estrangement between the oath of inversion and that had an effect.”

After thinking about it for a while, I came to a conclusion.

The more karma, the better, and the important thing now is that you can enhance your unique skill once more.

‘I don’t think there’s any particular need, so how are you going to evolve? One more avatar?’

As soon as I selected Ganghwa with a fluttering heart, a throbbing headache came.

After such a short time passed, I realized that I was able to create another avatar.

It didn’t end there.

“Five?”

《The unique skill grows and the potential blooms. Acquire the special skill 「Persona」.」

The related skills that I had hoped for were also developed.

In the meantime, Mind Hub has been helping me a lot, so I hurriedly checked the information.

By the way···.

“under···.”

Without realizing it, my expression hardened and a sullen smile leaked out.

The growth of unique skills takes place in the direction required by the user.

So, the system decided that “persona” was necessary for me.

The effect of the skill was simple.

A skill that uses the avatar as a vessel to contain one’s emotions.

“·················ogue.”

Time passed without hesitation in the silence.

While I was so dazed, I realized that one of my legs was trembling without my knowledge.

It was a bridge that had been restored a while ago and left traces of that day.

Now, the legs are smooth without leaving a scar.

I closed my eyes and meditated in the stillness.

He seemed to understand why this skill came out.

I looked back slowly.

I made friends with the people I met for the first time in another world.

Became undead, dealt with warlocks, and subdued villains on Earth.

He sacrificed himself to help the brothers and sisters in trouble, and defeated the vampires in the city.

‘I was locked in the corner of the room for two years.’

I am afraid of the outside and have only one friend left in my relationship.

Yes, in fact, everything I did after getting “Avatar” was nothing more than playing a game.

It’s full of vitality and I can experience everything firsthand, so it’s real, but it wasn’t real to me.

Just like talking to NPCs and not being shy, like clearing quests to punish the wicked and help the weak.

As an avatar, I was brightly and energetically venturing into another world, but in reality, I was still confined to the corner of my room.

The traces left on my body were gone, but my mind was still there.

“Whoa—”

I sighed once and opened my eyes.

quiet house.

The sound of the refrigerator making a small noise was particularly annoying today.

In a house that was once noisy and lively, I can no longer feel even a single ounce of vitality.

The space I had thought of as a haven until now felt like a coffin in which dust piled up inside the silence.

When he faced the reality he had been trying to turn away from, the sense of separation took his breath away.

“Hans.”

As he sang softly, darkness fell on the floor, and Hans slowly came up.

It suppresses the energy in every way, but nevertheless, an aura of fear that frightens the viewer.

It became several times more terrifying than what I had seen when I was a demilich.

“Put the stagnant and decaying emotions into a bowl…”

I focused on Hans and used “Persona”.

Negative emotions such as loneliness, sadness, and anger … flowed naturally.

Hans accepted it like a sponge because it was a good match for the original Undead.

“Whoa…. Is it over?”

As I faced the accumulated negative emotions and finished transferring them, my heart was refreshed more than ever.

I didn’t completely let go of my feelings.

It was close to the process of organizing it neatly in a box so that it can be taken out and used at any time.

After all, after all, the avatar was also me.

“I’m fine, but is Hans okay?”

It’s still undead, so it has a strong negative effect, but if it gets worse…

He focused his consciousness on Hans and contemplated his inner self.

I don’t feel any abnormality.

Rather, it was the effect of swallowing up negative emotions, to the extent that it became more comfortable to use black magic.

[…] Pain and despair are companions of life. Now that I’m here, it doesn’t really matter.]

I spit out a word without realizing it, but I didn’t realize it at first.

Just because it was taken for granted.

“Yes-?!”

Then, suddenly, I felt a sense of discomfort and jumped.

No, that’s definitely what I said…

[Aww, that’s right. Do avatars with emotions have their own personality? In a way, it’s natural.]

Hans let out a cynical laugh.

It was so natural that I got goosebumps.

‘Did you project a part of your inner personality? After all, I can’t stand in front of people with this guy.’

If you want to control it, you can do it, but if you are not conscious of it, your tone will change naturally.

Should I call this a side effect?

“Well, that’s it. I don’t even have to deal with people as Hans anyway, so what does it matter? As long as you help me, that’s enough.”

It was when I made that decision and nodded my head.

thud-!

A sound of shock rang out from afar.

Awesome—!

Then the siren began to sound.

It could be heard a little to see if it was quite far away, but it seemed like he knew roughly what was going on.

‘Is it a terrorist attack by a villain?’

These days, villains are on the rise, so the number of incidents has increased.

There were only related stories all over the news and on the Internet.

‘But that’s how I’m going to be active…’

Like the last time, I didn’t want to go through the trouble of looking for something that happened right in front of my nose.

There is nothing to gain by going out, and there is no direct harm done to me.

I looked away and waited for the chicken I ordered to arrive.

Jiying~

After so much time, a text message arrived on the phone with a vibrating sound.

-The Baedal Clan sent a message.

-The store you ordered, ‘Cerberus Three-Marie Chicken’, has been closed due to an accident.

– Your order has been refunded. We apologize for the inconvenience.

I stared at the text for a moment and then looked out the window.

We estimated the direction of the disturbance and compared it with the location of the store where the chicken was ordered.

“···ah.”

It was the best restaurant I found while walking around various chicken restaurants.

Fresh meat was used, crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, and it always gave me satisfaction with various seasonings and generous amounts.

For almost a year, I have always used it when eating chicken.

He was a good-natured boss who gave him a lot of service because he was a regular these days…

“···okay. I left it alone and it hurt me.”

In fact, I may have been looking for an excuse.

A means to rationalize myself.

Grounds for making an unreasonable judgment.

[Do we need a reason to destroy evil? Not like that. The order of the world is shaken and chaos is coming, and outlaws are swarming everywhere. . . . Now I will be their law.]

Hans, who was next to him, disappeared into the shadows.

Yes, I tried various excuses, but the conclusion was one.

I hate villains.
