14th floor – Lv. 2200 Dark Spirit King (4)
One of the two people who fully understood what was going on, except for myself.
The little boy clinging to his own back had his eyes wide open.
It’s been awhile since I’ve come to my senses again.
He accepted the darkness into his body and immersed himself in it, but the element of darkness only exhausted people anyway.
It’s a life full of only bad memories, even if I had a sweet and happy dream.
Eventually you have to come back to reality.
The happiest time in a kid’s life is still now.
But because of that, I was afraid to announce that I had woken up.
The little boy was of no use.
Clan members who cannot properly carry out the clan master’s orders are of no use.
If they are not needed, they are just being merciful and taking care of them.
Existence itself is a burden.
That was the most basic principle of being a vampire clan.
At least that’s what Clan Barbarois did.
A life that continues forever in a barren life has worn out the humanity of many people.
In the perception of such a little boy, he was a defective product that could not perform his assigned role properly.
I don’t know any other way of life.
So you’ll be pissed
I’m more afraid if I’m not scolded.
The eyes looking at themselves with quiet, cool eyes.
I gave up on being loved and giving up on being happy, but those eyes are still hard to bear.
I don’t even know why, but it was.
In such a miserable state of consciousness, the little boy quietly opened his eyes.
The sober reason that his talents as a wizard gave this young vampire suppressed his desire to escape.
No matter what, there is after Honnaya.
You can’t do anything by just turning away.
I want to be passive, but in that case, the only thing waiting is death.
The years I’ve been through are too short to think that death is more comfortable yet.
Should I ask for forgiveness? Should I just stay silent and listen?
When I opened my eyes with an expressionless expression with such worries, when my consciousness came out of the darkness like that.
The little boy saw a new world.
* * *
When Barbaroy called out the little boy on the 12th-floor majestic extravagant transport ship, he apologized first.
It is already a long time ago for him.
But it’s something I’ve had in mind for so many years.
This little vampire was blatantly a burden within the clan, and the parents who made them into vampires were also children who left no one to take care of after death.
Barbaroy ignored that fact.
There was no way to make a greater sacrifice in a situation where everyone was going to die right away.
In the meantime, I saw that the light in the eyes that had already died completely disappeared, and I saw that the flame characteristic of a child was extinguished.
Of course, that’s common.
There are many children who lose their parents to disease without even having to go to war orphans.
if you are human
But that child is a vampire and is a member of the Barbaroi clan.
In any case, the fact that he turned away from the child who had come under his responsibility in that way remained in my heart forever.
Vampires by nature don’t turn children into vampires.
A body that does not grow further causes a great hindrance in life and in the struggle for survival.
Young vampires born of a moment’s sympathy become a constant trouble for themselves and their clan.
And the little boy was the only clan member who did not voluntarily become a vampire, and at the same time was the only child.
To be honest, Barbaroi was delighted when he announced that the new clan master would take this little boy.
The little boy hesitated a little before answering.
“No. It’s okay.”
There is still no light in the eyes that answered the apology that way. 500 years have passed one-sidedly, but for this child, it is only a brief moment, less than a month.
It’s too soon for anything to change.
Barbaroi sighed and whispered while hugging him warmly.
“Don’t worry if you’re a clan or a clan master. Exiles are beyond that.”
The little boy stares at Barbaroi with eyes full of doubts.
It seems you don’t understand what you’re saying.
Those cloudy eyes stimulate a sense of guilt as a clan master who failed to fulfill his responsibilities.
“I know what I don’t know yet. I don’t know how to live. I’ve lived so that I can’t decide.”
If anyone else in the Federation heard that kind voice, they would have pinched their cheeks to see if they were dreaming.
If you still don’t wake up from the dream, you must now doubt your own mental state.
If something like that happens on TV, psychiatry will enjoy a boom for a while.
The cold-blooded, iron-blooded head of state Barbaroy and kindness.
Rather, the astrophysicist trolls are more credible.
“You are no longer a member of our clan.”
The little boy’s eyes fluttered mercilessly.
Did you think it was abandoned?
“No, it’s been a while. Your clan master is no longer someone else. Do you hate him?”
The little boy shakes his head.
“Is he good?”
A small mouth opens gently. A weak voice leaks out.
“I do not know.”
I’ve never received a favor, so I don’t know what it is.
Barbaroi seemed to have a rough idea, so he hugged the small body again.
“Then it’s okay if you like it. You can do it as you please. You want to decide for yourself whether you like it or not. Yes, you said you were learning magic. Is that good?”
The little boy couldn’t move his head again this time. A voice as thin as a thread.
“I don’t know… either.”
Barbaroy just laughed.
“I wish I could be able to like you.”
Of course, Barbaroy knew. From the kid’s point of view, it’s the future, but to him, I’ve seen the past.
This child who likes magic more than anyone and is crazy about magic, but at the same time knows what joy and happiness are.
All he can do now is give him a little push on his back to create that future.
* * *
The little boy’s eyes saw everything. A breakwater that blocks the huge waves of darkness from crashing, and that huge power.
It also showed how the torrent of power was controlled.
A terrifying force that seemed to break at the touch of a touch gently twisted and wrapped around the stepfather’s will, and I no longer felt afraid.
The constant rushing forces are rearranged in a very beautiful form.
It softens the power of the tsunami, lets it flow around, and collects some of it to create a new power.
The little boy, who could see all the power with his own eyes, just looked at him like he was possessed.
I can’t take my eyes off you I can’t shut my mouth
It was the life of a little boy who had to run away when a typhoon struck.
The oppression and tyranny of the Yongin pushed the child of human days out of peace and comfort.
Even after becoming a vampire and making a living, he had no choice but to run away.
The entire clan eventually ran away.
Leaving the lands of the East, to the far west, to permeate into the land of humans and the already existing society of vampires.
It wasn’t good either. chased, run away and defeated.
never faced
Now something else unfolds in front of my eyes.
Against a huge darkness that is considered to be an irresistible force, he confronts it without retreating, and overcomes it.
That strong will.
That beautiful technique.
As a result, the magical feat that unfolded.
All were dazzling to the little boy.
The moment I thought about it, the color of the world changed.
This darkness, which I thought was a little darker and duller, began to look like it was shining.
The flow of magic that he had seen with his two eyes from the moment he was born suddenly looks completely different.
It’s not just a flowing background, it’s starting to catch my eye.
How can we use these radiant powers?
Will he be able to reproduce the feat that is unfolding before his eyes?
The desire to do it blooms.
My heart, which had never been beating again after death, seemed to flutter and throb.
I felt that some kind of fire was burning deep inside my heart.
I don’t know what it was, but it was warm nonetheless.
The hanging lantern was also very warm.
I remember my old dad saying that he told me to find something I like.
The little boy wanted to learn magic.

The size of the system that collects the dark torrent is gradually increasing.
The utilization rate of mana control, which he imaged himself, also gradually decreased.
Already less than 10%.
If this torrent is maintained as it is, it has reached a level where it will continue to operate on its own.
In the meantime, the two cores that were finally induced to be created behind reached a critical point.
A dark core made of pure dark elements.
In addition to the newly supplied power, even the power that was not originally available begins to leak out around it.
The thick darkness can’t handle the great energy I have, so it begins to emit light.
Light is the most basic form of original magic.
Dark and light may be rhetorical contradiction, but magically it is feasible.
You could summon Sylphid with that magical power, but I’m sure you’ll hate it.
I also don’t want to see Seeker Magazine Sylphid.
But if that happens, the means by which I can utilize that magic power are extremely limited.
Because of the lack of stats and passive stacks, it is impossible to directly utilize that level of magic power.
In that case, it would be nothing more or less than self-destruction.
And if you use that core only as a treasure trove of infinite magical power anyway, you won’t get enough output to damage the monster, the original owner.
So I made two.
I use one to temporarily replenish my magic power… … .
The other one needs to be shoved into that guy’s stomach right now.
The baptism of darkness that seemed to last forever comes to an end.
Aside from the darkness that disappeared into a distant space behind it, the surrounding magic density was extremely high.
The monster seemed to have a big doubt about my existence.
The dark spirit roars.
It was not something that could be called a sound.
A wave of darkness, which is more shocking and powerful than any other magic detection, spreads out in all directions.
Now, this one has too much magical power.
The rising darkness easily blocks the blow.
One of two fiercely spinning cores was loaded.
The pointed tip made to overcome the torrent of darkness can function as a barrel at the same time.
Magic is indeed a conceptual entity.
It changes shape according to my will and becomes a gun barrel in the form of an accelerator.
A core that has already heated to the point where it cannot control its fierce rotation is loaded.
The monster still doesn’t know what I’m about to do. In anger, he begins to raise his arms.
It means using physical means of attack.
The giant is approaching moving forward more and more
That’s a good thing. Without a physical entity, this core is extremely unstable.
It’s hard to go far.
If you let it go, the monster will absorb it, but… … .
The ignorant Spirit King, who has never learned anything from anyone, sows something he will never know.
Converging the rotation of the core inward is also a technique.
To release it in a single moment is also a magic trick.
A precisely crafted time bomb seeps into the core.
It is accelerated by energy from one core.
The bullets ready to fire while standing in place begin to accelerate.
Independent of rotation, the force for forward direction is accumulated.
Oh, this could be a bit dangerous.
I don’t know, but it might be really dangerous for my little one.
We deviated from the system we had created to avoid the aftermath of the launch.
Detonate outside.
As soon as it was condensed, the condensed magical power ejected a frantically rotating core, that is, a vortex of magical power at unbelievable speed.
As it passes through the barrel, its speed accelerates further. I use even the power I have as a driving force to stretch out.
The passage of time becomes strange even for a moment due to the excessive use of magical power.
The trajectory of the bullet that stretches like a rubber band is drawn in space.
A huge darkness disappears into the body of the monster with its arms outstretched as if sucked in.
The dark veil that the Dark Spirit King wears over his body breaks through as if it doesn’t exist.
And for a moment it felt like time stopped.
Is this also due to the strange flow of time due to excessive output?
The moment that felt as long as eternity passed.
From the body of the monster, far away from the other side.
An explosion occurred.
A huge explosion like the birth of a star.
