31 Tournament Rewards

A minute after the announcement, the high ranking officials of the tournament came up to him and awarded him a golden medallion with the words 67th Grand Champion of Terradeus inscribed on it. The palm sized medal hanged on crimson gold cloth. An official gestured to Sebastian for him to duck his head a little for him to place the medallion around his neck. When the official hung it around his neck, he could sense something powerful nearby.

Using the system's identification skills, he tracked the powerful aura to the medallion and inspected it with the system.

- History:

A medallion forged by the best blacksmiths of all empires in Terradeus for the purpose of being given to the champion of the Empire Leagues of the Terradeus Grand Tournament. However, the Void God Saphraim imbued an infinitesimal amount of his power to enhance the medallion's abilities.

'Must be an extra gift from Saphraim for completing the God Mission.' The medallion has good attributes which would make him considerably stronger and equipped it upon having it hung around his neck. The medal itself should be quite heavy but his cultivation level and augmented vampire physique allows it to feel as light as a feather. While he is being crowned the champion, what he presumed to be the morning star empire's royal family and healers bringing a stretcher and carrying him away.

The dark aura he felt in Lucius had disappeared but other dark auras emanated from the royal family. A feeling starts to emerge telling himself that this won't be the last them he saw of them. He thought of it as something cliche but since he isn't exactly a hero, he'll just ignore it till a later date. After all, he still has an empire to raise and a harem to build. Right after the medallion is hung around his neck, something slightly smaller than him crashed onto him.

Looking forward, he saw an eldest princess hugging him while shouting out congratulations. "Princess, what are you doing?" He asked. After the princess heard his question, she immediately jumped backwards with a blushing face. 'Idiot! hard to get! Don't let him see that you need him make him feel like he needs you.' After meeting Sebastian for the first time and returning home to the castle, she asked her friend from another kingdom about guys.

She told her about the fact that he managed to make her feel weak in her knees and made her heart pump faster by just being around him. She also asks her how to make him like her. Like most girls, she advised her to play hard to get because dominant guys like him would definitely chase after anyone who resisted him because most girls would just give themselves to him anyway. As per that logic, he plans to make her look uninterested so he'll fall for her instead.

However, Sebastian isn't the average handsome guy but a future god and not to mention a cheat system. After jumping away, emotion starts to die down in her voice as she congratulates him once more, trying to sound uninterested. Sebastian shot her a perplexed look before ignoring it and started thanking the rest of the royal family, the general, the archmage and stefan for congratulating him on his victory.

The king invited him to joining them for a victory feast at the palace in 3 days. 'This is ridiculous! How does he magically win the empire leagues!' He thought. The eldest prince julian is clearly jealous at his victory and a celebration in his honor. He didn't even manage to pass the semifinals at the kingdom leagues and somehow an unheard of noble from his own kingdom managed to win the empire leagues, something no kingdom has ever even come close to achieving.

He believed that it's impossible that there is anyone greater in the kingdom else than his father. He spent his whole life under an endless torrent of training and yet he could not even hold a candle to this newcomer's achievement. He wanted to complain and say no. However, considering his current status, he is no position to reject and begrudgingly stayed silent. 'One day, I'll find a way to become greater and I'll become the center of attention once more!' He declared mentally.

The agareth kingdom higher ups then left him and went back to the capital using a teleportation gate reserved for guests from the agareth kingdom. When they left, they are soon followed by stefan who said that he needed to run some errands in his kingdom and headed home. Since it's still mid day, he decided to visit kilsa at the infirmary. Considering that he finally met another player, he wanted to clear out any grudges and hopefully make a friend.

After all, doing everything alone is never a good idea. With allies, all of his adventures would become much easier and with every ally comes one less enemy. Coming into this world had altered this impatient, gullible boy into a patient, intelligent man. In his previous life, he could only dream of reaching such a level of power and intelligence that he possesses now. While on his way to the infirmary, he checked out the spoils of his first God mission.

'Woaaah! That's just awesome!' When he compared this mythical skill to his pseudo mythical skill, the comparison is like coal and diamond. Although pseudo mythical skills are top tier skills, their potential is very limited compared to their mythical ranked counterparts. 'Why is the system so generous?' He thought, an intention of thanking. Suddenly, Hirani's amused voice rang, "Well, you'll need all the generosity you can get. After all, it only gets harder from here on."

He didn't take Hirani's words too seriously but still kept that in mind. Remembering that the amount of benefits he received are probably equal to the suffering he'll have to endure one day. After all, most of the world follows the rule of karma. An eye for an eye they say. Since that will happen one day, he swears to exploit all of the benefits and plan ahead so that when disaster strikes, he will be ready.

Next would be his materials to ascend into Tier 4. For a vampire to ascend onto a Tier 4, the vampire must first create a bride/groom for him/herself before having the bride/groom perform the ritual. The items he posses are enough for him to perform the ritual but he just lacks the perfect girl to do it for him.

Effect: Advancement item to become Tier 3, Tier 4 and Tier 5 for vampires, succubi and incubi

History:

Petals belonging to a plant with 6 red petals on each flower. The plant grows in areas where there are many demon remains. The plant is quite elusive as it produces demonic mist that could create illusions to Tier 2 entities and below.

Seeing how to acquire it, he is quite relieved that he doesn't have to acquire it on his own. The greatest challenge would be ancient virgin blood because he's very sure that there would be almost none of it because only high cultivation nuns would possess it due to their lengthened lifespan. Kidnapping one would also be a problem as older nuns would be very experienced demon slayers so there's the off chance that he would be captured and purified.

Before he could finish reviewing all of his rewards, he had arrived at the infirmary. Walking into the large wooden building, he went up to the receptionist. She is currently reviewing a clear crystal that seems to contain all information about the patients here. She is quite a beauty with pink hair and blue eyes dressed in a saintly garb. She doesn't notice his presence until he called out to her politely, "Miss?"

"Yes, what do you neeaaa!" When she looked up and saw the black haired youth before him, her jaw dropped and she could feel her knees becoming weak. She had never seen a more handsome youth in front of him, leaving her in a daze. Looking at her awed expression, he sighed mentally, 'Being handsome does have its drawbacks doesn't it?' To end her daze, he used his blood manipulation to suppress her hormone production so she would start talking to him.

Luckily, the suppression work but it still took another 10 seconds to push her out of her daze. Once he got her attention, he wasted no time and quickly asked her where to find kilsa of the Augur Empire. He showed her his participation token and gained clearance to her location. She's on the 5th floor in the room 511 of the VIP section. After giving her a simple thank you and a charming smile, he goes towards her room while leaving a blushing receptionist.

After walking up a flight of stairs towards the 5th floor, he followed the signs on the wall and turned left to the VIP section before turning left once more and walking down the corridor until he reached the room. Before entering, he knocked at the door thrice. Inside the room, Kilsa lay in her bed completely healed up while a large green turtle with miniature stone monuments and trees on its back beside her. The turtle is an Immortal-9 rank Thousand Year Turtle, a double mutated monster.

The Thousand Year Turtle is a very wise monster with powerful defensive abilities, a good contrast to its assassin master who possesses powerful offensive abilities instead. The turtle alerted ots master of someone at the door with its sage like voice, "Kilsa, someone's at the door." At her summoning monster's alert, she opened her green eyes, awakening from her short nap. Thanks to her valkyrie Jinra using healing tokens on her, she came back up to full health.

She stood up from her cozy, plain white bed and walked herself over to the wooden door, past her now resting turtle monster. When she arrived at the door, she asked, "Who is it?" A teenage male voice replied, "Sorry about knocking you out." She opened the door to find the handsome raven haired youth clad in black who defeated her in a single attack. "I got you a gift, I hope that there is no enmity between us." He handed her 2 basic epiphany tokens. For non players, it would seem like he is handing nothing over.

However, kilsa's previously almost expressionless face immediately turned into a surprised one. 'An Epiphany Token!!!' Kilsa had been here in this world for around 5 years. She had purchased the noble package, her base power rank being that of a Gold Apex rank upon her entry. Unlike God Package users, she didn't progress that quickly and had to wait for her physique to handle the instant power increase albeit its duration only an eighth of a normal human's.

When people elevated, they have to wait until the new energy received from the monster to fully merge with the person's body. The more compatible the monster, the more faster they can elevate again. That's why going multi element is not suggested because the elevation rates would be significantly reduced. However, the noble package allows people to have the merging process 8 times faster.

Getting an Epiphany token is one of the greatest things she could receive. The epiphany token would remove the elevation limit for 6 hours and increase her learning, improvement and memory by 900% for also 6 hours. With this, she could easily bind and learn skills in just a day without having weeks or months of constant training. However, as an assassin, she knows very well that when there are gifts there must be a request. He looked up at him with suspicion written all over her face.

Clearly seeing suspicion towards him, Sebastian spoke in a friendly tone, "Relax, I don't want much from you. I only need your contact. That way, I can help you if you need me to without having to look around for me." With an irritated tone she replied, "What, do you think that I'm not strong enough to take care of myself." Kilsa doesn't like being offered help, she doesn't want anyone's pity on her. In her previous life, people who offered her help just turned their backs away from her.

People she considers as her friends and now he expects that she'll just trust him completely. Not to mention, he is a stranger to her. "No it's not that, isn't it better to have each other's backs in case anything happens. After all, the universe could be quite an asshole." Still, kilsa won't surrender but her valkyrie managed to convince her just to add his contact. After a short chat, he left and spent the rest of the day buying rare and exotic items from the city.

There are many epic and imperial ranked items within the city. With the tournament prize money, he purchased many rare items and relics before storing them into his world crystal. In the dead of night, he prowled the streets following the scent of his marked victims. He gave each of them 3 minutes of heaven before sending them back to sleep with a blood draining bite. He returned back to the noble's coffin in the graveyard and slept there till daytime when a problem surfaces.
