The Old Story
The young man raised his hand slightly towards the sky and then pointed his index finger towards the sky visible through the glass ceiling.Everyone understood what was happening as soon as he did this."Did the Great Goddess tell you to do this?" Estella asked with great curiosity. She couldn't believe Nyx would have commanded such a thing. It was a very dangerous thing, after all."Of course not. I knew my body could hold both powers together. After all, there was a reason I couldn't use either mana or qi throughout my youth, wasn't there?" replied Desmond.When he noticed the seriousness on his aunt's face and the anxiety that was many times greater than that seriousness, Desmond suddenly pulled himself together."What do you mean?" Alissa asked."Apparently, my body is good enough to accept both powers, but because I'm too young to hold both powers at the same time, it consciously didn't allow me to train either one. So, to put it bluntly, you could say I was saved by the heavens,
How They Started To Exist
Andromeda became the first vampire and solidified her position as empress of all vampires with all the vampires she had created.It was a race that could drink blood, had long fangs, and, contrary to legend, could stand under both sunlight and moonlight.Andromeda directly banned drinking blood from the living beings that have thoughts, that are smart, and have a real will that can speak for itself. Unless that thing is dead, you do not touch it to get stronger.You may trade for their blood, you may pay them for it, but you can not touch them with your own hands if they are living beings.She was a magnificent being.Chaos had said that immortality was possible on one condition: that a mortal being could exist in this mortal world. Therefore, this race could only possess this power under this condition.Accepting this condition was what would grant Andromeda immortality.Phanes accepted this request without a moment's hesitation because it was truly an unacceptable request.As Chaos
New Continent
When he opened his eyes again, Desmond felt as if he were somewhere else within the temple he had just been in.Unlike the white, grey, and black colours normally found inside the Church of the Night, red and black colours were more prominent around him.Desmond realised he was somewhere else. He understood he had arrived at his destination.In front of him, about fifteen metres away, stood five people looking at him with respect, interest and admiration.Three of these five people were women, and two were men.There were five people with human-like ears, slightly pale, i.e., with white skin, deep-set eyes, and, as could be seen from their smiles, pointed canine teeth."I really did make it," Desmond thought to himself. He was pleased and unbelievably excited.These five people had gently knelt in front of Desmond.Young Desmond hadn't expected this and couldn't think of what to say, but before he could utter a word, the person at the front of the group spoke:"Welcome, oh dear prophe
Isabella Crowney
As Desmond approached the woman and stopped a few metres in front of her, he extended his hand and said, "Desmond Moon, pleased to meet you, Duchess."Although his behaviour greatly surprised the surrounding vampires, none of them dared to say anything.The point that would truly surprise them had not yet arrived.The Moon Family never bowed before anyone. This could be a Duchess or even the Vampire Empress herself.The woman in front of him wore a red dress. It was a simple dress. A dress covered only in patterns, without any jewellery.It was as if the Duchess herself had been alive for a very long time, trying to convey through her attire alone that jewels no longer held any meaning for her.The woman's facial features were close to perfection, her eyes bright red, and her hair jet black.The woman finally took Desmond's outstretched hand and replied, "Isabella Crowney. Pleased to meet you, Duke Moon."Unlike Desmond, Duchess Isabella bowed her head in greeting.Desmond was finally
Way Faster
When Desmond looked at the large wall clock in the training area, he realised that almost three hours had passed since he had started training, and he smiled and said, "It went faster."It really had.Since Desmond had consumed a potion, everything was naturally completed more easily.Each empty leaf fragment surrounding the dantian in the body required even more qi within each stage, or by its true name, within each realm.It was like how a magic circle required a much larger mass of mana each time.However, unlike a magic circle, each realm was divided into different empty leaf fragments, as was well known.Therefore, from a technical perspective, a cultivator could be said to create seven magic circles within each realm, and just like a magician's first magic circle, an exponentially increasing power level would manifest within these leaves, or empty slots.Nevertheless, a cultivator could not utilise the power of that realm to its fullest extent until they had completely filled al
Different Ways To Do It
"Well?" Andromeda said curiously.Duchess Isabella, unable to hold back any longer, replied, "I have no idea. A respectful individual. Proper diction, good conversational style, someone who treats servants no differently than nobles and is kind to everyone. I cannot imagine what His Highness Duke Moon might find disrespectful or dislike, Your Majesty."The thought that Desmond possessed both powers had completely left Isabella's mind. Not knowing what to say to Andromeda, the poor woman stood there frozen.Andromeda, however, pursed her lips and said, "Well, it's understandable, after all, it's only the first day... Still, be careful, don't lose respect... If possible, I will try to bring him into our empire. If that's not possible, we must give the Holy Empire all the support we can."Empress Andromeda's words were frankly something no one could have imagined hearing.Andromeda was generally a truly kind-hearted empress. Yet there was one truth, and that truth was that she was a stri
Qi Refining-Realm
The next day, Desmond rose at seven in the morning and, after popping a few plain Akyaz Fruits from his inventory into his mouth, returned to the training ground.He greeted every servant and knight he saw and, upon arriving at the training ground, began his training by drinking a potion on top of the fruit he had eaten.He would train like this for almost five hours.More than half of the qi needed to fill the fourth blank leaf, or realm slot, had been replenished thanks to the meal he had eaten yesterday.Of course, this meant that after five hours of training, everything would be fine.He had regained his composure and calmly started swinging his sword.For five hours, he repeated this movement without stopping.When the five hours were up, the young man sat down and filled the fourth part of the realm slot, that is, the inside of that empty leaf.He could feel his power increasing even more.The fact that no one was bothering him made everything very comfortable indeed. Everything
The Condition
Desmond had done nothing but train himself until the evening hours.Once he had ensured that all the qi in his body had stabilised, everything was complete, and it was time to call it a day.He was quite hungry, but instead of consuming any food, he took a few Akyaz Fruits from his inventory and ate only those.He didn't want to prepare anything or wander around the castle constantly to reach the dining hall.If not today, he would explore the capital tomorrow.The vampire race was a race that valued art greatly.From their architecture to the artworks they drew, from the meals they prepared to the clothes they sewed, everything was beyond perfection in the eyes of a human.Many people, including Desmond, said that ‘perfection’ was not a good thing. Because perfection was boring. It was particularly absurd for mortals to be perfect. Everyone should have flaws and things that were not considered good in the eyes of others.Still, not everything about the art created by the vampire race
Beautiful Time
The next day arrived, and Desmond had finally left the castle.Desmond had made his way towards the centre of the capital in a horse-drawn carriage bearing the coat of arms of Duchess Isabella Crowney.He had been given several servants and seven powerful knights and wizards who would constantly be at his side.After arriving in the centre of the capital, in the area where most of the market stalls were located, Desmond finally left the carriage and began walking, followed by those who had accompanied him.Everything looked truly beautiful.It was as if pictures had been painted on every building, and every stone had been carved with intricate designs.Even the fountain in the city centre was a work of art.It resembled a statue of an angel preparing to flap its wings, and water flowed from the angel's eyes. It was as if the angel itself was crying.The beauty of the vampires' clothing, their manner of walking, and many other things made Desmond smile.Except for the children, every v
Shadow
When Maria graciously moved to the chair Desmond had indicated and sat down, the young man had taken a glass, poured a little red wine into it, and offered it to her.“Thank you, my lord,” said Maria."You're welcome, madam. Now, I believe you have something to tell me. Please speak," replied Desmond.At his words, Maria smiled and said, "Actually, I do have something to ask you. It's a rather rude question, but I would like to ask it with your permission.""Of course, go ahead," replied Desmond."It is said that Prophets can see the god or goddess they love. However, the previous Prophet lived a very long time ago, so I have no such knowledge. If possible, could I find out if this is true?" asked Maria.The vampire woman's eyes were practically shining.Desmond smiled after this question and then, frankly, wanted to show off a little. However, at first, he simply said ‘Yes’ in a truly incredible, normal tone and fell silent.Maria stood there, her eyes sparkling like the other vampir
