Chapter 96 I Am An Advance Stage Cultivator.

"Hmm?"

Azriel opened his eyes and frowned.

He then looked around and saw that he was lying on soft and comfortable grass. He sat up and then started looking around even more.

He didn't know where he was, however, wherever it was,

This place was simply beautiful.

It was night, however, it wasn't dark because there was a big moon shining in the air, the air here felt incredibly fresh, trees and plans swayed happily, and beautiful wooden houses could be seen.

All of this already made it an amazingly beautiful place, however, what made it Ethereal was that island that was flying in the air, surrounded by the clouds.

The water dropping from the island fell into the river and it looked like blessed water that didn't have an ounce of impurity.

All in all, this place was breathtakingly beautiful.

(Picture of the Place in the Paragraph comments)

Soon, Azriel came out of his reverie as the memories of what happened after he defeated the Primordial Frost Golem filled his mind.

He looked around again and this time, he wondered,

"Am I in the Heavens? Have I died?"

"Hahaha! I told you, you tough bastard! I told you that he would say that!"

Suddenly, Azriel heard a burst of hearty laughter and then turned around.

There, he saw 2 beings, one male and the other female looking at him. The female was all smiles and was laughing without pause, as for the male, he looked disappointed.

"Haahh… Why does everyone think the same thing? Can't they think of something more realistic? It's so obvious, why would you still be conscious if you had died? So disappointing…"

The man muttered.

The man had a large build and was 2 meters tall, he had brown-red hair and beard, golden eyes and the thing that stood out the most was the red colour scales on his arms and face and his slightly longer ears. (Image in paragraph comments.)

Azriel didn't need to think too much to know who he was.

This man was a Dragon.

As for the woman, she was 1.69 meters tall, with silver hair, silver eyes and a beautiful, well-structured face. The thing that stood out the most about her was her long, pointy ears. The woman had a noble aura oozing out of her.

She was an Elf. (Image in the para comments.)

Seeing the two of them, Azriel frowned, and then, he took a battle stance.

His thinking was clear, anyone who is not a Vampire is an Enemy. So he treated the two of them the same way.

Seeing the wary look on his face, the Dragon Man laughed out loud.

"Hahaha! For a proud Vampire to be so wary against us, Hahaha! How amusing."

"…"

Azriel didn't care what the man was talking about and stayed silent.

He was ready to be attacked at any moment.

"Hahaha! I didn't know the Vampires would become scardy cats! Hahaha!"

The Dragon man laughed again and this time, Azriel's face twitched.

The Elf saw that and decided to meddle in between.

"You do not have to be on your guard against us. We won't harm you. Actually, we couldn't harm you even if we wanted to."

She had a small smile on her face that made her look trustworthy, however, Azriel still had his doubts.

"It seems you do not believe me."

The Elf noticed that as well and continued,

"We cannot use our powers in this world,"

"Huh?" Azriel frowned.

"Try using any of your Skills."

Azriel frowned and then tried to use [Blood Art] however, he noticed that he couldn't summon the blood.

He then tried turning into Blood Mist and he failed again.

Seeing the frown on his face, the Elf smiled,

"As I said, you cannot use any of your Skills in this world, it is the same for us, I cannot use Mana, this man here can't use his physical strength, we all are pretty much weaklings in this place."

Azriel's frown deepened and he questioned.

"What is this place?"

"It is the World's Core, or that is what we have been told." The Elf answered.

"World's Core?" Azriel frowned.

"Alright, since we will be together for a while, I believe it will be better for us to introduce ourselves,

My name is Tyria Floret, I am from the Floret Family, and as you can see, I am an Elf."

Tyria introduced herself with a smile on her face. Then, she turned towards the Dragon Man and nodded,

"My name is Vasuki Blaze, I am a Dragon."

The two of them then looked at Azriel, waiting for the introduction.

Azriel then shook his head and sighed.

This was a new place, he didn't know anything about it, also, his power being sealed was annoying as well. it would be better to talk with these 2 to know more about this 'World's Core'.

"My name is Azriel Ruinous."

At the same time, his Blood Red eyes shined and he tried to access the Information of these two people.

…

However, although the system worked, just like how it happened with Luminia, he couldn't access the Information of these two either.

'They are as strong as Lilia at the least.'

Azriel noted in his mind.

'According to teacher Luminia, if I fight Lilia as I am right now, I won't last even for a Minute…

These two…

They are strong…'

Azriel's face turned serious.

However, contrary to his serious face, the Dragon and Elf were frowning,

"Azriel Ruinous? Ruinous Family? Huh? Why haven't I heard of any family like that among the Vampires?"

Vasuki frowned and Tyria nodded.

"I haven't heard of that Family name either…"

She then glanced at Azriel and soon, her eyes fell on the Insignia that was on Azriel's chest,

"Ohhh! That's the Crux Insignia! Are you related to Crux Family by any chance?" Tyria questioned with an excited smile.

"So we have a big shot here huh… The Crux Family…"

Vasuki chuckled as well.

"Oh don't have like you are any different, your Blaze Family is as strong as the Crux," Tyria snorted.

"Your Floret Family isn't any different either, although they are weaker than our families, you guys are still big shots amongst the Long ears, are you not?"

Vasuki answered back.

Seeing the two of them talking with each other, Azriel frowned.

What the hell are these two talking about?

Confusion was all over his face.

"Well, we may be a big shot amongst elves, but we are nothing in the eyes of you Dragons and Vampires."

"Well, you guys are too weak." Vasuki didn't deny it and shrugged.

Elves were too weak to contend again with Dragons.

For Dragons, only two races were worthy of being their rivals, Vampires and Demons.

That's it.

Seeing the nonchalant look on Vasuki's face, Tyria's face twitched.

"Hmph! Whatever!"

She then turned towards Azriel and questioned,

"So how are you related to the Crux Family?"

Azriel, who was very confused right now decided to answer,

"Luminia Crux is my Teacher."

"Luminia… I have never heard that name…"

Vasuki shook his head.

"Of course you haven't you old monster. You have been living in this place for Millenniums. How would you know anything about any beings living in the real world?"

"Hmph! You darned woman! Don't act like you are any different!"

"Fuck you!" Tyria cursed.

"Fuck you!" Vasuki cursed back.

And Azriel was still as confused as before.

Nothing changed.

Tyria noticed his confusion and decided to ignore that vile dragon in front of her.

"So? Your Teacher, Luminia Crux, what is her position in the Crux Family?"

"Hmm? Umm… She is the leader…?" Azriel answered with a confused look on his face.

His teacher is the leader in the house… right?

"Ohh! A Leader! You have the Head of the Crux Family as your teacher!? Oh my god! You must be insanely strong then!

What is your cultivation level?" Tyria questioned.

"Why should I tell you that?" Azriel frowned.

"Oh C'mon, you are still wary against us…

Aren't you a little too meek of a Vampire?

Just what in the hell happened to you proud and arrogant bloodsuckers?" Tyria couldn't help but question.

And again, Azriel frowned.

These two people…

For some reason, they do not look down on the Vampire Race at all.

No, let alone look down, they even see Vampires as someone strong.

Just what in the hell is wrong with these people?

"Alright, let's do this, you tell me what is your cultivation stage, and I will tell you mine, no, I will even tell you Vasuki's Cultivation Stage, what do you say?"

"Hah? Why are you dragging me into this!?"

"Aren't you curious as well?"

"Well… I am… a little, alright, I agree!

Tell me what your Cultivation Level is and we will tell you ours in return. It's a fair deal, is it not?"

Azriel frowned and in the end, he decided to reveal it,

"I am an Advance Stage Cultivator."

"…"

"…"

"…"

"Eh?"
