Aiden stared as his fingers, dripping with blood. A look of horror in his expression. All around him were shriveled coprses. The atmosphere was gloomy, further accentuating the gory sight.-[Mission Completed!]-[You have recieved +10 Blood drachmas]-[You have devoured 35 litres of blood] "W-What have I turned into?!" he burst into tears... Lancelot Academy..It was a prestigious school to breed young magis, being the number one in Halowe State. It was located in a 1st tier city called Gold Spring city and was the most powerful force there, apart from the Viscount Manor. However currently, the gates of Lancelot Academy was wide ajar, welcoming a rapid stream of visitors. This was because, today was the day of the Academy's admission. An event that only happened once a year. The Academy's landscape was ridiculously huge, so was the building structure. Like any other Magi Academies, the admission was often free however, it came with an entrance test.Failing the entrance test meant losing the chance to become a student. The entrance test was being hosted in a spacious field inside the Academy's premises. There were rows of spectator benches surrounding the field, making it look more like a football stadium. Gathered around the field was a crowd of teenagers, numbering up in hundreds. These were those who showed up for the Academy's admission. If they passed, that meant they would become students of Lancelot Academy. "Decorum please" a calm voice resounded in the ears of everyone present as a figure dropped from the skies. It was a smartly dressed middle aged man with glasses, standing on a floating brick. "That's Teacher Krillin" "You mean the Magi who has the Sound mojo?" "Ahh, no wonder his voice rumbled in my head" "Soo strong!" The crowd exploded into a wave of discussions. "Tsk. Sound mojo huh? nothing impressive" Rio who was amongst the crowd on the field, snickered. Mojos were the unique abilities of Magis.According to Public knowledge, a Magi could only be entitled to a single mojo. "I will like to welcome you all to the Academy's 25th Entrance exams. For this entrance exam, I will be the super visor" Teacher Krillin said calmly, however his voice echoed clearly in the heads of everyone present. "This entrance exam has two stages. Mojo assessment and combat. Allow me to explain what the mojo assessment test entails" "By placing your palm on this orb.." he snapped his finger, causing an azure glowing orb, the size of a bear head to materialize. ".. It reveals your mojo, as well as the talent of that mojo. Though let me tell you something crucial. Talent doesn't mean potential. So even if you end up getting a mojo with a weak talent. Don't give up. Train hard and you will even surpass those with high talent" "Now begin. You can take turns touching the Mojo assesment orb" after saying this, Teacher Krillin floated to a corner. "Heh. Here I come" a guy wearing baseball cap grinned as he went over.Touching the assesment orb, a ray of light exploded, forming the below words. *Mojo: Metal manipulation* *Talent: Pawn tier* When the spectators saw this, they exploded into a fit of booings. "Tch. What an utter trash!" "Pawn tier talent? Seriously? I bet he won't make it into Lancelot Academy" "Tsk. Get off from the assesment orb trash!" The guy with the baseball cap smiled sadly as he distanced himself from the assessment orb. He didn't blame the crowd for their insults, afterall, a pawn tier talent was the lowest type of talent. "Hope this goes well" a girl with twin pony tails went over to the assessment orb... Minutes passed with several of the aspirants going over to touch the assessment orb, to get their mojo talents analysed. Along the line, three hundred people turned out to possess pawn tier talent.Two Hundred turned out to have Rook tier talents. Hundred had Knight tier talents. Thirty had Bishop tier talents. Finally, it was Rio's turn. "This will be a piece of cake!" he grinned with confidence as he placed his palm on the assessment orb. A ray of light exploded, forming into a series of words. *Mojos: Ability Intuition & Time Manipulation* *Talent: King tier!* Silence. Everybody present, including even Teacher Krillin gawked at Rio, like they were staring at a monster. T-Two mojos? and a king tier talent?!.. Once Aiden got back to his apartment, he had a cool bath so that he could clear his head. But no matter how hard he tried, the image of him with bloodied fingers and mouth couldn't just leave his head. It was seriously driving him insane! Just what kind of monster had he turned to?-[Host is now a Vampire]as if reading his thoughts, a series of words appeared on the system's panel screen."Vampire? What's a Vampire?"
-[The world's dangerous predators. As a Vampire, host can grow stronger by devouring essence] "Essence?" -[Yes. The main chip that fuels the life force of all living things. By drinking blood. You absorb blood essence and grow stronger while at it]"Grow stronger you say? but I don't feel a single damn thing has changed!" Aiden clenched his fist. Suddenly, new words appeared on the panel screen.-[HOST INFO]-Name: Aiden Skyfall-Alias: ? ? ?-Race: Innate Vampire Progenitor-Class: Versatile..-[HOST ATTRIBUTES]-Strength: Lv. 1-Speed: Lv. 1-Agility: Lv. 1-Physique: Lv. 1-Energy: 10/10.NOTE: User can use blood group B blood to increase Physique stat.

He tried leveling up the *strength stat*-[This action costs 1 litres of blood. Do you want to proceed?]After giving the system a mental go ahead, a new notification came in.-[Your Strength stat has experienced a level up!]-[Continue level up? The next level up will cost 2 litres of blood!] 'Yes' Aiden gave the go ahead.-[Your Strength stat has experienced a level up]-[Continue leveling up? The next level up will cost 4 litres of blood] 'Yes!'-[Your Strength stat has experienced a level up]-[Continue leveling up? The next level up will cost 8 litres of blood]-[Your strength stat has experienced a level up]-[Continue leveling up? The next level up will cost 15 litres]-[Insufficient amount of AB Blood] "Hmm.." Aiden whistled, clenching his fist. He could feel a volatile energy stirring within his muscles. "Let's see if this system really works!" he licked his lips as he left his apartment. Fortunately, a tree happened to be a stone throw away. Arriving besides the tree, Aiden leaned back a bit, drawing his clenched fist back before sending it thrusting forward. BAAM!

Silence. Everybody present at the venue of Lancelot Academy's entrance exam stared at Rio like he was a monster. "T-Two Mojos?" "And they are both King tiers!" "I heard the country's number one Sentry has two mojos. But they are just king tier and queen tier talents" "Do you mean to say this kid is even more talented than the country's number one Sentry?" Hearing the audiences discussions about him, Rio grinned smugly. "I'm the best in the world! before my talent, everybody is just trash!" "W-What a pleasant surprise. To think we have a talented youngster in our midst with an innate talent of dual mojos" Teacher Krillin said, barely able to contain his excitement. Innate talent! Unlike normal talent, Magis with innate talent were destined for great things. Talent usually referred to the mojo a Magi wielded. But innate talent.. there was no ranking to it. If a Magi had an innate talent, then they were destined for great things.That was their fate, already set in stone! Since

"Yeah! Yeah! Pummel him!" "That's what I'm talking about!" "Loser! get up and fight!" Entering the battle rambo building, Aiden winced in discomfort at the loud noises the audiences were making. Due to being a Vampire, his senses were more enhanced than humans. As such, the noise was amplified a hundred times over. It was as if someone placed a megaphone besides his ear and was screaming into it. "First time here kid?" the middle aged man who was walking besides Aiden, smiled when he read his body language. "Hm. I don't know how to address you sir" Aiden replied. "My name is Xavier. What's yours?" "Aiden" Mr. Xavier grinned. "Alright Aiden, let's get you booked up!" Leading the way, the duo arrived at a counter. "I want to book a fight" Mr. Xavier said to the female behind the counter. "Oh? what battle stage please?" the counter lady asked. Mr. Xavier observed Aiden for a bit before responding. "The Beta stage""Alright. Let me prepare the booking. Is your fighter a Mag

"Nightshade Royal Academy?" Aiden repeated with skpectism. "Tsk. Tsk. It is an Academy owned by the Nightshade Country" Mr. Xavier grinned. "Say what?!" Aiden almost had an heart attack. "You aren't kidding withme right?" he asked suspiciously. In this current world, there were cities, counties, States, dukedoms, kingdoms, empires and continents. The Sentry Association was an organization that had jurisdiction over all Magis. Their counterpart were the Mercenary Fraternity, that often lived in the shadows. However, there also existed noble and royal power that ruled over their own regions in the world. Starting from the bottom were the Lords. They often ruled over hamlets and villages. Then were the Barons who ruled over towns. Viscounts were nobles and rulers of cities. Counts were nobles who ruled over counties. Earls were nobles ranked higher than Counts. They ruled over states. Dukes ruled over Dukedoms, Kings ruled over Countries, Emperors ruled over Continents.As for

"This is the Academy?" Aiden mumbled as he alighted down from a black limousine. The sheer size and decor of the Academy's building was beyond anything he could ever imagine. Taking a look at the premises, he noticed that all the students came in expensive looking cars. From the grandeur of their movement and the dignified air surrounding them, even an infant could tell that they were all nobles. "Pheew. I can do this" Aiden took a breather as he sauntered towards the school building. At the lobby area, there were four platforms with plaques besides them. Freshmen Sophomore Junior Senior "Hm. According to my card. I am at the class D for the Freshmen Students" Aiden mumbled to himself as he followed a group who were headed for the platform with the *Freshmen* plaque besides it. "Though, I wonder what the platform is used for?" he mumbled with curiosity. As if answering his question, a male noble amongst the group stepped on the platform.As soon as he did, the platform got

Not long after Nyx departure, a new teacher walked into the Class D. It was a female with dark spots underneath her eyes. Her lips were covered in black lip gloss and she was a devilish beauty. Comparing her to the maid at Xavier's house, Aiden shook his head. When speaking of natural assets although the Teacher before him was slightly above average, she didn't come close. "Good morning Class D! I am Lisa, your Geography Teacher!" "Oh. She has a beautiful voice. Not bad" Aiden mumbled to himself. "Hm.. Let's begin our classes then. Today's topic is going to be the distinction of regions.." Lisa began her teaching, which she did for over thirty minutes. If not for her beautiful face, many students (mostly guys) would've dozed off because of just how boring the Geography class was. Very soon, Geography class period ended and the next teacher took over. This time, it was a slender man with delicate skin and feminine features.When the females in the class saw this teacher, their e

Aiden couldn't believe what he just heard. Xavier was the Country's protector?! "So, are you related to him in some way?" Charlotte asked. "Something like that. Hm? how did you figure that out? don't tell me your mojo is telepathy?" Aiden gave Charlotte a wary look. "Pft. If I had such a mojo, I would be in Class A, not Class D" Charlotte giggled. "As for how I did it, I kinda compared you both skin tone. Not to mention that you both have a dangerous vibe around you" Charlotte explained. "Ohh" Aiden nodded. Grabbing the syrup can, he splayed it on the french fries before tossing it into his mouth. -[Ping! You have ingested a harmful substance!] As soon as the system sent this warning, Aiden felt a sharp pain in his stomach. It felt like a scorpion was clawing at his guts. "Ugh!" he groaned as he held his stomach in pain, sweat trickling down his face. "Are you okay?" Charlotte sharply noticed the look of pain in his face. "I.. I think I ate something poisonous" Aiden stutte

"Mold beta to connect to our mojo?" the Students murmured to themselves. "Watch" The Mojo Analysis Teacher brought out his palm. "Fire gauntlet!" A burst of brilliant flames wrapped his hands, reaching his elbow. "This is an hex I casted. My mojo is pyrokinesis or flames manipulation. By molding and connecting the beta force to my mojo, I was able to cast this hex" The flame gauntlet dispersed. The Teacher continued. "However for novices like you with limited amounts of beta force, casting hexes would easily sap away most of your beta force since you still haven't learnt control. And when that happens, your opponent will exploit such an opening to take you down. So it is advised to save your hexes for last, when you are confident in taking down your opponent with that single hex" "Now. To connect your beta force to your mojo recquires meditation. An intense one at that. Picture your beta force as a bowl of soap and your mojo as a sponge""Then try visualizing that sponge soaking

Aiden stared at his clothes which were now soaked with the blood of the shriveled up corpses lying around. Lick. He moved his tongue, licking up the blood stained on his upper lips. For strange reasons, the blood taster sweeter than even the sweetest gelato he had ever eaten. Staring at his blood soaked clothes, he groaned. Anytime his bloodlust grew, a bloodbath always followed after. He had to think of a way to deal with his huge apetite to drink blood or risk alerting the Sentries or the LEA. Sitting down on the ground, he began going through his latest loots. -[You have Completed Mission; Defeat All Your Enemies] -[You have been rewarded with +5 Blood Drachmas] . . -[BLOOD DRACHMA] -35 .. -[MOJO(s)] -Essence Absorption (original) -[SKILLS] -Blood Essenbe Absorption -Rock Gauntlet (lv2) (+) -Pervert (buff) (lv1) (+) -Sand Bullets (lv3) (+) -Optical Laser (lv3) (+) -Double Damage (buff) .. -[BLOOD TANK] 1.

Lady Margaret clicked her tongue as she suddenly flicked her wrist. Shing! Butler Nicolas barely had time to react when he noticed the dagger previously in her grip was now half an inch from stabbing straight through his temples. Splurt! The dagger cleanly pierced a large hole through Butler Nicolas forehead before stopping right in mid air and then returning back to Lady Margaret's grip in one fluid movement.Gi.Gi.Gi.Gi Right before her eyes, the tissues in Butler Nicolas forehead began regenerating at a visible quick pace as the hole on his forehead closed up.

Chapter 400 — Artificial S-tier
The Fountain of Mervyn.. this was an urban legend in Fenris City. Back when it was still a medium city before the legendary existence known as Xavier came into the picture, Fenris City was still a developing city. Although it wasn't a rural settlement, it also couldn't be compared to the top cities. However even at that time, it was considered fairly popular all across the entirety of Nightshade Country because of a single attraction.. the Fountain of Mervyn. According to proven statements, the Fountain of Mervyn was actually a liquified mana super vein. For a territory to support beta force cultivation required it to possess a mana vein. Think of the entire planetoid as a big tank of water. For the residents of a town to access this water required pipes to be connected to this tank. Water would flow through the pipes and then through the residents taps.. This was how mana veins worked. They were all connected to the planetoid's planetary core which was the original source of worl

Sensing the matrix arrow honing back towards him, August realized that trying to avoid it was going to be futile. Clicking his tongue, his storage ring briefly lit up as a mirror with a slightly cracked surface slipped into his grip. This was the spoil he obtained after his battle with Captain Sarai. Considered the fact that he wasn't a direct descendant of her House, August couldn't utilize the innate technique of the Mirror because he was yet to obtain the recognition of the artifact spirit. However at the end of the day, the mirror was still a legendary delta level enchanted armament. Even if he couldn't use its Innate technique, it could also be used to-- Grabbing the edge of the mirror, August slammed it towards the rapidly approaching matrix arrow. Bang! The mirror easily shattered the matrix arrow. However noticing the matrix arrow split into a thousand runic fragments, August utilized Celestial Steps as he retreated back.

"It's nice to break free from shackles.."Captain Millie felt a chill run up her spine when she heard this grunt. Right before her eyes, August had merely released his aura, yet it was enough to blast through a diamond grade matrix! a matrix she had only managed to construct after pooling her energy with a Gold Cape Dragon Mark Runelock while also sacrificing a drop of her spirit blood. At that moment, a lot of thoughts were running through her mind, making her totally unaware when August gaze shifted towards her direction. "You.. You're next!" With the pages of his Hex Tome rapidly flipping, an Hex Pattern lit up behind August. However compared to the Hex Pattern casted by low level Magis, his own was quite different.. Perhaps it might've been because he was under the effect of his Domain Expansum, the interlinked glowing neidan strokes that comprised the entire schematics of the Hex Pattern were all connected to a single star that stood out like a sore thumb; whether it was th

"What is the meaning of this?!" August brows creased as he scanned his eyes around, observing the twelve matrix pillars around him. He attempted to move only to realize that his movement speed came out far slower than he planned. "No!" he shook his head as he suddenly realized something. It wasn't just his movement speed that was being affected, he could also sense that the flow of his beta force was beginning to slow down as well. "You've begun feeling the effect no?" with her previously pale expression regaining its color, Captain Millie's Rune Cape appeared behind her as she took into the skies, looking down on the confused August with a sneer. "Basically you are trapped in the Diamond grade Rune Matrix, Twelve Points G Pole.." "D-diamond grade?!" August chest tightened. What the hell was this?! he just concluded battling an opponent with a delta level enchanted armament, now he was trapped within a friggin diamond grade rune matrix Although he had no idea what the capab

"Is it just me? or does somebody else have to say it?" Captain Millie gulped nervously as her eyes were fixedly trained on the cloud of swirling dust in the distance. "You aren't the only one.. Captain Sarai's energy signature disappeared.." Captain High Valley balled his fist. Although it was a given that taking down August was going to result in serious casualties and perhaps death, it still didn't hurt less when it eventually happened. "Brace yourselves!" Owling's warning had only just rang out when a fast moving figure shot out from the cloud of dust. Although August seemed to be clearly using the Celestial Steps footwork, his trajectory appeared to be strictly linear. "To think he's already capable of utilizing the second level of Celestial Steps, Blazing Trail.." Captain High Valley's expression went ashen. "Now!" Owling held out his fist. At that moment, Captain Millie and a chubby male Sentry who went by the name Beau, suddenly shot into the air as their fingers perfo

"Who are you and why do you look like me?" Aiden shot Nedia an accusing glare as he tried activating [Lightning Gauntlet] while adopting a fighting stance. —[Action Failed] "Impossible!" Aiden's expression went ashen. "Don't bother. As long as you are here, you are completely under my mercy.." Nedia clicked his tongue as he observed Aiden keenly. "Not bad. You got my looks.." he nodded in satisfaction. "What are you talking about? why the hell do you look like me?" "I look like you?.." Nedia's lips curled as his gaze became ruthless. ".. Ballsy!" With a single lift of his brows, a terrifying pressure descending upon Nedia as he got pummeled into the lake of blood. As soon as that happened, he noticed the entire scenery seemed to have experienced a transition. He was no longer in the red world, but in a countryside village like environment. "I.. I know this place!" floating in the air from above, Aiden's gaze fell on a smallish figure that bore a striking resemblance to h

"Hmm.. from what you've told me so far about this Rio character, you envy him.." Dr. List observed Aiden keenly. They've been ten minutes deep in their therapy session and so far, she's succeeded in holding a two way conversation with him. For her, this was progress. "I envy the privileges he had. There was even a time when I wished to have his life.." Aiden shook his head self loathingly. "Oh? and why would you ever think of that? you have to know that no matter how it appears to be on the surface, nobody's life is a rose without its thorns.." Aiden's brows knitted as he adopted a serious tone. "Rio was different. He had everything I ever wanted.. loving parents who spent all their time doting on him, a confident social life.. if I started listing them I'm afraid I won't be able to stop.." "Hmm.. makes sense. However you mentioned parents who spent all their time doting on him.. do you mean to say they are dead?" Aiden nodded, causing Dr. List to exhale. "That must've been

"He must be dead.." Captain Sarai's lips twisted into a grimace of relief as she stared at the cloud of icy mist before her a couple distances away. "It wasn't so hard now was it.." her victorious grin was cut shot when she noticed a fluid sliding down from her nose. Dabbing it with her fingers, her brows furrowed. "Blood?" at that moment, her vision suddenly became fuzzy as she nearly tripped before finally finding her balance. "Tch. It would seem that I am near my limit.. " she clicked her tongue regretfully before glancing towards the rising cloud of icy mist. "Luckily I was able to dish out serious damage before my fumes ran out.." "Oh really?" a mocking sneer suddenly echoed, causing a shiver to run up Captain Sarai's spine. She instantly stomped her right heel on the ground, initiating a backflip as she landed a dozen paces away. She had only just done that when a heavy and equally fast object slammed down on her previous position. If she had been any second later, no do
