I woke up to find myself a weakling vampire with only 10 health points, and the Holy Light Knight Order was right outside to purify me! In my despair, the 【Proficiency System】activated—so long as I live, everything is grindable! To survive, I did anything! While other vampires were hunting maidens, I was slaughtering a hundred thousand rats in the sewer, my 【Bite】skill maxed out, awakening the talent 【Life Drain】! Holy Light burns painfully? I treated myself like the Monkey King's flesh and braved the Holy Light, my 【Holy Light Resistance】maxed out, awakening the talent 【Holy Light Affinity MAX】, and directly took a Holy Light bath in the church! They thought I was an elegant noble, but what I was actually thinking was, "This sword strike will probably only take 0.001% of my health—too risky, I must kill him instantly!" They called me the "Nighttime Scourge" because I targeted only the most heinous scoundrels, after all, the proficiency points from "Sinful Blood" were simply too generous! Years later, the Abyssal Demon God descended, and the gods fell. In the despair of the entire world, I brushed off the dust from my tailcoat and looked at my blood bar that had grown to an uncountable length. "You... can break my defense?"

Chapter 1: Starting with Purification? Sorry, Your Holy Light Is Making My Experience Skyrocket!

Boom—!!!

The deafening explosion made the entire castle groan.

Boulders from the ceiling mixed with dust and came crashing down; Veridian's consciousness was torn violently out of endless chaos by that very shock.

What greeted him was an agony more unbearable than death.

It was as if someone were stirring his brain with a red‑hot iron rod!

Two utterly different sets of memories collided and tore at his mind like madmen.

One belonged to the twenty‑first century—the corporate drone who had been slowly eaten alive by cancer in a sterile hospital room.

Another presence belonged to this world: a young bloodkin named Viridian.

A vampire?

He collapsed onto the biting cold stone floor, gasping laboriously.

His sharp canine teeth had pierced his lower lip; a faint metallic tang of blood spread through his mouth, reminding him of the absurdity of this reality.

What made it worse was that the memories in this body were filled with a despair deeper than a cancer ward.

He belonged to the thirteenth clan of the bloodline, the "descendant of Cain" whose blood was the thinnest and status the lowest.

A waste.

A disgrace who couldn't even perform the initial embrace to turn an ordinary person.

And now, the only value of his existence was as a chess piece discarded by his family.

"Boom!!"

Another earth-shattering roar came from the main hall of the castle.

A blinding golden radiance, like the sun of divine retribution, fell to the ground, turning half the night sky into daylight!

Holy light!

It is the Holy Light of the Radiant Church!

That pure, majestic energy, full of devastating purifying power, made Veridian's soul instinctively scream and tremble!

"Malignant undead, beneath the Holy Light, you shall all be ash!"

"Praise Luminos, God of the Sun! Purify this place!"

Outside, the paladins' hymns—frenzied to the point of distortion—blended with the clanging of heavy armor, composing a grim symphony of death.

In the depths of his memory, his supposed "elder brother" had locked him in this side chamber just hours ago.

On that handsome, ruthless face was written nothing but contempt.

"Viridian, this is your final contribution to the family. To die at the hands of the Holy Light Knights—consider that your glory."

Glory?

Screw your glory!

In his previous life, he lay on his sickbed, watching his vital signs tick down to zero with helplessness.

In this life, he was treated as cannon fodder, waiting in the cold stone chamber for the despair of purification.

Two waves of extreme negative emotions crashed together, almost grinding his reason to powder!

Why?!

Why must I die so helplessly again!

I don't want to die!!

I want to live!!!

The hysterical roar in his heart seemed to have struck some law hidden in the void.

A strand of golden holy light, like a cunning viper, slipped in through the cracked door and precisely "kissed" the back of his hand.

"Sizzle—!"

A smell like roasting meat, scorched and sharp, rose with thin tendrils of smoke.

A burning pain that reached into his bones made his whole body jolt.

Yet, just at the instant that the agony peaked!

A cold, deathly, emotionless mechanical voice, like an oracle from beyond the ninth heaven, suddenly exploded deep within his mind!

[Host's intense will to survive detected...]

[Conditions met...]

[Proficiency System, formally activated!]

Viridian's body froze instantly.

Immediately after, a translucent, ghostly-blue panel that only he could see unfolded slowly before his eyes.

[Name: Viridian]

[Race: Bloodline (Descendant)]

[Health: 10/10]

[Strength: 3 (adult male: 5)]

[Agility: 6 (adult male: 5)]

[Constitution: 2 (adult male: 5)]

[Spirit: 7 (5 for adult males)]

[Skills: None]

[Talents: None]

The corner of Viridian's eye twitched violently.

These ridiculous stats—especially that abysmally low 2 Constitution and a mere 10 hit points...

If a passing knight sneezed outside, they'd probably blast me to bits, right?!

"Bang!!"

Just then, the already battered wooden door was utterly smashed to splinters by a tremendous kick!

A young knight clad in silver-white armor, wielding a long cross-shaped sword, charged in.

The holy light emanating from him was like an all-consuming furnace with no shadows—an intense blaze that seared every inch of Viridian's skin!

Agony! Piercing, bone-deep agony!

The numbers on the status panel flickered clearly, jumping for a single beat.

[HP: 9/10]

Immediately after, a new line of golden text flashed and popped up on the panel.

[Ding! You are continuously receiving faint Holy Light damage. Passive skill [Holy Light Resistance] has been unlocked! Current proficiency: 1/100.]

[Ding! [Holy Light Resistance] proficiency +1!]

[Ding! [Holy Light Resistance] proficiency +1!]

Viridian's breath, in that moment, completely stilled.

His pupils suddenly contracted into dangerous pinpoints.

He stared fixedly at the prompt that kept pulsing, and in his mind it felt as if millions of thunderclaps had exploded at once!

Injured… can that unlock skills?

Getting a singe from the holy light… is that increasing proficiency?!

The trainee knight noticed him too; his young face was a tangle of first-time battle nerves and a feverish sense of mission.

"An isolated vampire whelp? Filthy thing, receive the purification of the Sun God!"

He raised the long sword high, and a gentle yet lethally deadly holy light for Viridian gleamed along the blade.

The brilliance of death.

A moment ago, it had been a life-stealing poison.

But now...

In Viridian's eyes, that fear and despair of death were, in the space of a single second, utterly replaced by a morbid, feverish radiance mixed with ecstasy and madness!

A dead end?

No!

What the hell kind of dead end is that!

This was clearly a broad highway to immortality! A divine "newbie gift pack" that others could never beg for!

"Heh heh..."

"Hehehehe..."

Under the stunned gaze of the trainee knight, the vampiric whelp who should have been trembling under his holy light and howling for mercy not only did not retreat, but instead let out a low, eerie laugh.

That laughter seemed to come from the abyss, making the young knight feel a sudden, inexplicable pang of dread.

The next second, a scene that would haunt him for the rest of his life unfolded.

The gaunt member of the bloodline not only failed to dodge, but instead reached out with the one hand that had been seared by holy light, flesh torn and raw, toward that ever-closer golden radiance!

Madness! He must be mad!

Sizzle—!!

A burning pain ten times fiercer than before washed over him; flesh curled, white bone exposed!

Agony flooded him like a tide, as if it would shred his nerves apart!

[HP: 8/10]

But at the same time!

The tortures from hell were accompanied by the gospel from heaven!

[Ding! You are scorched by Holy Light, [Holy Light Resistance] proficiency +5!]

[Ding! [Holy Light Resistance] proficiency +5!]

[Ding! You have been cut by a sharp object (shard). The passive skill "Tough Skin" has been unlocked. Current proficiency 1/100!]

[Ding! You are enduring excruciating pain. The passive skill "Pain Endurance" has been unlocked. Current proficiency 1/100!]

A barrage of system notifications, like the most splendid waterfall, crazily flooded Veridian’s mind!

That cold mechanical voice, at this moment, sounded like the most beautiful, most enchanting symphony in the whole world!

Refreshing!

So fucking refreshing!

"You... you monster! What are you doing?!"

The trainee knight recoiled half a step at the bizarre scene before him; he had never seen such a sinister undead creature.

Viridian slowly lifted his head, his pale face contorted with excruciating pain, yet bursting into a grin so radiant it was grotesque from overwhelming ecstasy.

His crimson eyes locked onto the knight, and that look was not that of someone facing a judge.

It was more like he was looking at a...

A walking, steaming, unimaginably huge experience bundle!

He licked his split lips; his voice was hoarse, but carried a chilling sort of pleasure.

"Just a little more…"

"Your holy light is too weak!"
