22 Reflection

Draig laid in place until felt his regeneration start doing its job, the pain slowly subsided and he crawled over to the corpse using his teeth to rip through the armor he began consuming the woman, he continued eating while looking blankly towards the sky with each bite a putrid smell would invade the air to a more horrifying degree but he kept staring at the two floating in the air.

"Zarra" said Draig subconsciously

It was several minutes later that Draig finished the woman's corpse, gaining another bloodline from an ancient house but he wasn't concerned with that Staring at Sylvie's stump of a leg he hacked off the frozen portion and fed her one of his potions causing a bit of regeneration before stopping. Draig took out another and another as he watched the leg grow back to completion, he tossed the other potion towards Tina as he stood and looked at the Guilders who remained there even after all the time that had passed after the altercation.

"Gather everyone, we are going to war" said Draig easily

He realized Sylvie wasn't in the condition to carry out his orders so he would carry them out himself, mortals were too fragile with their bodies.

Thoughts of that nature had begun to float through Draig's head occasionally as he progressed further on his path to becoming a powerful Vampire. He hated Humans already because of the bias they had shown towards him, and he hated those weak monsters from the Forbidden zone. Now to him they were becoming one and the same but Sylvie was different, that was his first follower, she had protected when he was at his most vulnerable.

'If the Dark mage wishes to test me then he has accomplished his task partially' thought Draig as he waited for these Guilders to regroup and gather here if they decided to listen.

Draig for some reason felt different the moment he had started using the Blood Script ability, if he had to be honest he realized he was losing his sense of self. The thoughts he currently had he wouldn't have thought them a day ago, yes he wanted vengeance but he didn't despise them to such a degree before.

Draig ceased his inner musings as he opened the system to see what he had inherited from the woman, inspecting the system closely he found it and soon realized why the woman hadn't used her superior mana pools to fight.

'Emperors blood, allows for a superior domineering might in physical combat'

Draig read this slowly and felt it was a bit lack luster but then again so was the fight with the woman, he remembered he had yet to pick a new ability from his advancement. He opened the menu and looked at his selection.
