chapter 50
Episode 50 Vampire (6).
Balt was observing it closely.
‘Oh, is this the feeling of life force being converted into magical power? This is an amplification It’s efficient to convert life force into magical power.’
It is different from the physical force-magic conversion.
When physical force is converted into magical power, the conversion rate is 1/10, but Lilith in front of her feels a tremendous amplification of magical power when she bleeds a little blood on her fingertips and converts magical power using blood as a medium.
I couldn’t accurately figure out what life force was, but I could tell what kind of energy was converted into magical power.
“I’m going Mr. Balt.”
A short incantation is heard from Lilith’s mouth, her eyes shining.
“Blood Spear.”
Charara Rock-
The blood-colored particles that secretly floated around Lilith’s body combined with her magic power and condensed to create a red spear.
And magic that shoots rapidly.
To study!
‘It’s short, and it activates faster than normal magic.’
The nature change is missing during the magic activation process.
The rocks created by the gnomes using Baltic magical power require the gnomes to convert the mana into the properties of rocks.
However, vampire blood magic does not require a separate conversion process because it is blood itself.
Wanting to feel the power of his blood magic, Balt uses the Wheel Stone Barrier to block the spear with his forearm.
Too-kwang!
Boom!
Tupeng!
‘Oh! That’s heavy!’
It is definitely a Blood Spear with the power of the 5th circle.
Seeing that she blocks it very lightly, Lilith thinks so too.
I think it’s strange that Lilith was waiting for Balt’s attack.
“Huh? Why don’t you attack?”
“I want to learn more about blood magic. Attack as much as you like, I will take everything and give it to you.”
Great confidence. I plan to show off my skills by being hit one-sidedly.
In a way, defense is the most basic thing about not dying.
“I will not decline. Ha ha!”
The magic power of the 6th circle is gathered by Lilith, and Lilith’s hand forms a hand sign.
‘Hmm, it looks like you need a prisoner. It’s a bit different from normal magic activation.’
I’d rather have a beastman for Balt.
Beastsmen were created to adjust the distribution of magical powers after all.
It is a bit analog, and it is less scalable than memorizing formulas to calculate and arrange mana.
But for a barbarian with a head, it’s obviously better to move your body than use your head.
Because beastmen just need to memorize how to move.
If you repeat it hundreds of times, even a barbarian can do it.
“Go. Balt will be a little strong. Rapid of Blood!”
Tuhwaahak!
Befitting the name of the Torrent of Blood, the magic in the form of a wave of dark red blood spurted out from Lilith poured over Balt in a wide area.
It was lightly used, but the power of 6 circles.
“Mmm! Nice!”
It’s okay to explode in one hit with the anti-magic slash, but Balt is curious about the power of that magic.
It is a voice that he wants to receive it with his body.
Balt, who was a bit like breaking the floor of someone else’s palace, began to stretch his hand forward with strength.
I learned that the whirlwind ball I learned from Irene can be applied in many areas.
As well as the first use of the Spiral Burst Ball, it could be applied to defense as well.
By concentrating mana on his outstretched hands, Balt creates a rapidly rotating orb of magic.
And spin it round and round as if drawing a circle.
As the act of turning the whirlwind ball adds additional rotational force, a wind barrier is created in front of Balt centered on the whirlwind ball.
There is a sphere in the middle and the wind rotates around it, just like a fan.
Robin, who was watching, exclaimed in admiration.
“Haa… Baltic magic is something I’ve never seen before. Where did you learn that?”
“hahahaha, I mean, what is that? What kind of defensive magic is that?”
As Lilith tells her the name of the magic, Balt also recites the name of the defense magic.
“Unique Magical Spiral Fan Shield.”
Kwa gaga gag gag go!!
The waves of fresh blood collide with the whirlwind of Balt, and a tremendous contest of magical power takes place.
The rolling waves of blood fail to break Balt’s rotating defenses and eventually disappear.
“Oh, that’s amazing….”
Lilith’s pure admiration. She is the strongest attack she can use without overdoing it. However, Balt blocks the attack very leisurely.
It’s not a protection magic that only one circle can create.
I can hear the voice of King Vladir, who has confirmed that far.
“Stop. I know enough skills. It’s a strange ability. It must have something to do with the item on your finger that the power of the body is converted into magical power.”
King Vladir sees through Balt’s ability at a glance, as if he has more skills than an Arch Mage.
“With that level of skill, there shouldn’t be a problem. Please take good care of me Balt.”
It was a pity that I couldn’t see more blood magic, but I think this is also a virtue.
Obviously, after helping them, you will learn more clearly.
‘There is a possibility. If it’s a way to sign a hand sign, our people will be able to use it too.’
“Leave it to me.”
.
.
.
Bald, who was able to quickly gain favor with King Vladir thanks to meeting Lilith, escaped Vladir’s throne room and began to listen to Lilith’s explanation.
“Currently, we have two difficulties.”
“Two things?”
What else is there besides the situation where the entire race is weakened because blood is not available?”
“It is an external problem and an internal problem. Doubtful though… There are obviously hardliners who seem to be involved in this situation.”
It seems that the internal political situation is not going well.
“My father is a moderate who wants to maintain good relations with humans ever since he became king. My father’s theory is that there is nothing good if you lose a match with a human who almost dominates the continent. The goal is for vampires to break away from hiding in the dark and go out into the light.”
It’s a contradiction to say that a vampire is a bright place, but I can understand the feeling.
“In fact, it is a clear fact that vampires in the past bred humans to obtain their blood. But in the 200 years my father has been in power, nothing like that has ever happened.”
“Hmm, that’s why I didn’t see many vampires on the continent.”
“Yes, yes. Robin. We held our breath for the leap and recently contacted the Halkin Empire.”
Vampire’s political back story is quite interesting.
“The emperor of the Halkin Empire is a person who dreams of unifying similar races. Even with the temperament of a dreamer, his achievements could not be ignored. Are you all students of the Growund Academy?”
“Yes.”
Lilith has a slightly envious look.
“The emperor recommended education at the Growundt Academy as the first step in opening up the vampire race. But I couldn’t go. Because unusual things kept happening in Brasov.”
“Princess, are you invited?”
Lilith smiles faintly.
“Yes, if it hadn’t happened, I would have been living my school life with the girls. It’s a pity.”
At that moment, Balt’s head flashed.
‘Hmm? This is a good situation.’
I don’t know how long it will take Balt to learn blood magic.
She couldn’t be better off if Lilith could get into Growund.
Because the emperor won’t let the rare race of vampires go unnoticed in this grand unification of races.
“The humans who traded blood have disappeared and my father’s position is now at rock bottom. Other nobles are putting pressure on my father.”
That’s why there were no servants in the audience room.
And the rest of the personnel following the emperor were doing other things to come up with countermeasures.
A very unfavorable situation.
The first thing to do is to decide.
“I need to investigate. I think we should visit some, if not all, of the towns that used to do business with Brasov.”
At Balt’s words, Robin nodded her head.
“The village where Lilith was found was also not investigated properly. If she had known you had a background like this, she would have looked closely.”
It was just difficult because Lilith was in poor condition at the time.
“I think I need to go there again. She’s half a day away, so half a day is enough for her to come and go.”
Yuria’s ears perked up as well.
“Wouldn’t it be nice to call the kids that too? None of us use our brains, right?”
A hot-tempered Robin objected to Yuria.
“Yuria. The fact that she is a skilled archer means that she is also a ranger. She has confidence in tracking and searching.”
“Oh, sorry. You’re so muscular that you didn’t think of that, did you? Still, it would be better to enlist Arias’ help, right? Elves are really good in the forest. Lati will be of great help too.”
There is a point in what Yuria said.
Balt thinks he should go out and contact Lisa’s group.
The moment you try to get out of the castle like that.
A group of vampires approach Balt’s group.
Lilith, who noticed that figure, murmured while shedding her saliva.
“Kuh… Of course, at a time like this….”
The six vampires are a bit different from the other vampires Balt has seen so far.
A well-blooded and healthy figure. It seems to be consuming blood from somewhere.
A sharp-looking man with long black hair at the forefront speaks to Lilith.
“Hey, Princess. Humans in the sacred sanctuary. Besides, this other race…. May I ask what is going on?”
The tone is polite, but the feeling is not.
A feeling of reprimand, not a question.
Balt is sure of his status as he speaks quickly. An 8th Circle Arch Mage.
‘It’s strong. Are Arch Mages so common?’
It seems that he has no intention of hiding his momentum and skills.
The mana that exudes fullness makes it easy for Balt and his companions to recognize the state of a man.
I’m deliberately applying pressure.
“Issues are none of your business. They are the benefactors who saved my life, and I am serving them, so please don’t mind them.”
At Lilith’s reaction, the man called Uncle laughs.
“Can you do that? No matter how urgent the situation is, you brought in humans without the Senate’s permission. What are they entitled to?”
The eyes of the five people looking at Balt’s party, or rather Robin, from behind the man named Ishran.
Balt reads what those eyes are.
Appetite.
As they licked their lips, they stared at Robin, swallowing her saliva.
‘Huh, so blatantly?’
