Chapter 115

Whoosh!

Han Seojin unleashed his aura.

The surrounding vampires froze solid.

‘What is this?’

Hot, cold.

Such an aura was felt.

It was felt before.

This kind of aura was usually a trait of mages or those who revered chivalry.

Because the intense elemental magic they possessed influenced their aura.

Aura.

It encompassed magic, elements, one’s life journey, and hierarchy.

All those things were contained within it.

Then, an even stronger aura was felt.

That aura began to bind everything about him.

Unable to move a single finger, unable to open his mouth.

That was what it was.

The ashen flames suppressed everything around.

‘What is this?’

He couldn’t move a single finger.

The aura felt wasn’t that intense. At best, it was slightly weaker than his own.

Yet, he couldn’t move.

With arrogant eyes, he looked at them.

Its blue, blazing eyes stared at them.

A strange illusion appeared.

A sky dyed black.

A sun burning white.

Underneath, it felt as if a giant being with blue eyes was looking down at it.

The power and aura felt weaker than his own.

Yet, the illusion seemed to bind them, making them unable to move.

‘Illusion magic?’

No, it’s not just that.

That thing, that thing...

“I heard your prince is here.”

A languid voice.

It exuded composure. Yet that composure felt like that of a strong being. No matter how much you attack, you can’t do anything to me.

With that attitude, he was looking at them.

“Where is the prince?”

“I, I can’t tell you.”

True Ancestor.

At the woman’s firm words, Han Seojin nodded.

“Your loyalty is admirable. Well, it doesn’t matter. I don’t need to know.”

Thud.

The woman’s head burst simultaneously.

Instant death.

At the same time, sacred flames engulfed her body, turning it to ashes.

No matter how strong a vampire’s regenerative power was, that one was dead.

“No, it’s better not to know.”

That way, he could kill them legally.

Han Seojin did not say.

But the True Ancestors felt the weight of his words.

The spirituality gained through ascending.

It stimulated their brains.

“Even if you say that, we cannot betray our prince......!”

Thud.

He ignited. His head exploded, and her body turned to ashes in the flames.

“Your loyalty is admirable. Ah, but you can’t defy the True Ancestor’s orders anyway.”

That was the nature of vampires.

More than any other race, they couldn’t act against a higher-ranked being.

So those called True Ancestors couldn’t open their mouths.

But it was okay.

‘Anyway.’

There was no one here worth saving.

Han Seojin saw it.

The atrocities they committed.

Kidnapping innocent civilians and raising them as livestock.

He didn’t care for concepts of human rights or whatever.

‘But they crossed the line.’

Demons.

The atrocities they committed.

It wasn’t just about using humans as food.

They drank their blood, didn’t differentiate between toilets, didn’t wash, couldn’t move, and force-fed them food to make their blood tasty.

He saw such feasts.

The future deeds these bastards would commit.

Their past actions were even more displeasing.

So he decided.

‘All of them.’

They should be killed.

These beings all deserved to die.

His understanding of the time attribute increased tremendously.

Even now, without using eternity, the duration of maintaining magic or the duration of maintaining the Heaven-Surrendering Godly Technique has increased tremendously.

Han Seojin thought up to that point and turned his head.

The place where the ancestors were.

If there was a prince, it would definitely be this place.

It was the thought he had as soon as he heard Jung Gaeun’s explanation.

But he didn’t sense anything like that here.

‘That means.’

The prince wasn’t here.

Then where would he be?

Han Seojin looked at the corpses of the ancestors with gloomy eyes.

The prince walked through a dark space.

A place where nothing could be seen.

However, presences were felt everywhere.

Something endlessly nauseating was squirming.

Demonic Insects.

They filled this place.

It was only natural.

Considering what kind of place this was.

[Your Highness, we have a serious problem.]

[What is it?]

[Our clan has been attacked.]

The prince’s eyebrows furrowed momentarily.

Every member of the clan was important.

But now they were preparing for a grand endeavor.

A grand endeavor for the entire clan’s aspiration.

‘So a little sacrifice is acceptable.’

That was his thought.

The prince stared at one spot.

A squirming insect, like a fetus.

It was watching him from the altar.

‘Absurd.’

A squirming insect, like a fetus.

Its intimidating presence was terrifying. It felt like facing a natural enemy.

‘This is the Demon King...’

Even among them, only a few.

Even most transcendents couldn’t give off this kind of pressure.

That is why the purple tower master of the empire, said to have killed the demon king, was so praised.

It was puzzling.

Why would a demon king with such power betray the demon god?

The authority he possesses must be enormous.

Regardless of that, the fetus was revealing its momentum without reservation.

[The time has come.]

The fetus, once the Insect Dragon King, began to speak.

[Finally, the conditions have been met. Although the information has gone to the one who should never have it...]

Information?

What information was it talking about?

The prince was curious but set aside his curiosity. He was already one with it.

[Let’s start grandly. The transcendents in the human realm. That arrogant one in the academy.]

The fetus began to rise.

It exuded an overwhelming presence. Everything around it was distorting.

It was just momentum.

[Let’s start by killing that bastard.]

The Demon King began to move.

Uooooooo!!

The insects howled.

The prince sensed a strange wave of power.

Mana.

It was the force that filled this world.

Magic power.

It was the corrupting force used by the minions of the Demon God.

What was this?

It was similar yet more intense.

‘Something...?’

Crunch.

The prince realized his body was changing.

The powers of the progenitor began to transform completely. No, it wasn’t just transforming.

It was evolving.

It was the power bestowed by the Insect Dragon King.

Swoosh.

Something opened in the air.

A white eye appeared, engraved with a blue pattern.

An existence too great to even look up to.

It was looking at him.

The blue pattern deepened. Then, power began to surge within his body.

The magic he had possessed so far was leaping across a dimension.

“......Haha, hahahahahaha!!”

The prince realized.

A vampire who wanted to become a progenitor.

He had become something beyond the power of a progenitor.
