Crimson Overlord

In the blink of an eye, four days had passed.

Morning, daybreak.

A ray of sunlight broke through the mist and landed on a clear and elegant face.

His black hair fell casually like a waterfall and swayed gently by itself.

The man’s eyes were closed, and the sunlight moved slowly around his body until he was shining from head to toe.

Against the shroud of the sunlight, his body shone with sparkles and was as shiny and flawless as jade. It was a beautiful sight to behold.

The man resembled a deity that had just entered the mortal realm and was in pure silence.

All of a sudden!

The man opened his eyes, and two crimson lights shone dazzlingly, even more, intense than the sunlight!

However, the crimson lights faded swiftly as well.

Calmness returned to his eyes.

Lowering his head, the man looked at his body that had returned to normal and nodded with a sigh.

The man was Orpheus, who had just finished assimilating the blood essences of the two origin beasts; he had recovered a little bit. He didn’t really like using this method as it made him bloodthirsty. Even as the first, there was still some side effect he couldn’t completely control.

”Let’s go see how that girl is doing,” Orpheus mumbled before vanishing.

•••••

Back in Amber’s cave, she woke up two days ago but didn’t go out, not because she was still injured or was afraid, it was because she felt like she was missing something to survive in this dangerous forest; she knew what she must do to acquire what she had been missing. She took those two days to gather origin in the air, filling her core to the brim, in these two days, she tried to get used to Dáinsleif’s weight while also practicing basic swordsmanship.

Finally, on the morning of the fourth day, the little human girl, now a vampire, was ready to step out of her cave.

After she felt that he had learned something, Amber left the cave to hunt and kill origin beasts to awaken her spirit perception.

Although she suffered more losses than victories, was unkempt, and covered in wounds at times, Amber could always escape alive with Blood speed, recover and go back again; the circle was endless.

In between life and death struggles, she constantly concluded, comprehended, and cultivated.

A few days later, Amber returned to the old place and looked for that snake origin beast.

”Hisss!”

The snake-origin beast hissed upon noticing Amber’s arrival; having searched for this human girl for the past few days, the origin beast was happy now that she came herself.

The snake origin beast slithered toward Amber at extreme speed; opening its giant maw, it tried to bite Amber; the latter was calm; she sheathed her sword behind her back and slapped the beast’s maw after sidestepping on her right to dodge the snake attack.

The snake-origin beast’s brain shook, its tail coming toward Amber froze for a moment; using this chance, Amber clenched her fists tightly and gathered origin in it before punching the beast head to oblivion.

Bang! Boom!

Amber’s punch shattered the snake origin beast skull, brain matter, and blood splashed the ground; the origin beast that almost took her life a few days ago was killed so easily barehanded. Amber’s eyes were calm as water; it was not like she had done something noteworthy; after collecting the beast core, she spun and left.

Henceforth, Amber completely left the cave that she had been living in. She wandered deeper into the forest, and engaged in combat with various origin beasts.

This was a bloodshed world about the survival of the fittest. The so-called most powerful one did not exist.

In one moment, one was proud and majestic. In the next moment, she could possibly end up as prey in the belly of other origin beasts.

There were countless miserable and intensive bloody battles, countless narrow escapes from death, constant vigilance, and constantly on tenterhooks. As time passed by, Amber acquired a unique and indescribable sense of danger.

That…. was spirit perception!

In a small corner of the Desolate Forest that no one paid attention to, except a young man, a young vampire underwent a thorough transformation. A fiendish appearance was taking root!

”Not bad, it took her twelve days to acquire a decent spirit perception,” Orpheus mumbled while observing Amber walking deeper into the Desolate forest. Because he had altered her perception of time while at the same time altering the surrounding space, Amber thought that only seven days had passed; she had no idea that twelve days had already passed. If she knew that twelve days had passed, she would be shocked because it would mean that she only had a few days left before leaving for the Wratharis Empire to get enrolled in the Heaven Star Academy.

However, in reality, only three days passed in the real world, Amber who had no idea of the enormous gift her master gave her, continued to train; everything was for her sake, for her master, to remain by his side in the future she must endure and become stronger. There was no doubt that her master would attract countless people; to always have her place, she must not fail.

Acquiring spirit perception was unexpected; however, her final goal didn’t change; by the end of this training, she must be capable of fighting against other geniuses in the future; if Orpheus were the light, she would become the shadow, so was the once human girl determination.
