Chapter 245

Vampire Rise (5)
Hahoetal, an unidentified monster that suddenly appeared in Korea.
He began to judge criminals indiscriminately only by his own standards, and made a significant contribution to stabilizing the chaotic public order under his cruel hands.
No matter how much it was an act of violence that ignored law and order and relied only on force, no one could deny the tangible results he brought about.
The public gave enthusiastic support to his actions and began to undervalue those who had previously been responsible for domestic security.
These so-called large organizations are only as bad as one person.
Kwaaaang—!
‘There are a lot of excuses, but it ended up being that way… Even if you hear things like that, there’s nothing you can do about it.’
Jiyoon Yoon, who was exchanging attacks with Alpha, smiled bitterly.
However, contrary to public perception, the Ability Management Bureau and the Korean Returnees Association were groups that were far from incompetent.
Although they have shown some inefficiency due to various unavoidable constraints, there is no way that those who are responsible for the security of a country and have maintained society until now are incompetent, right?
‘This must have been the main base of Heterosis, right?’
For example, she already had a good understanding of Heterosis, the mainstream power of the clan that dominated the night streets of Seoul.
Since it showed moderate behavior and was of considerable help in securing public security, for the time being, they maintained a tacit cooperative relationship and just watched, but of course, it was also a border area that the association was keeping a close eye on.
However, a strong energy reaction was suddenly observed in such a place.
That’s an incredible level of hostile blood magic.
‘I said they would come as quickly as possible… but the damage was too great.’
She bit her lip again and frowned.
It only took about 5 minutes for the headquarters to detect an abnormality, for the news to be relayed to her who was on vacation, and for her to come running here herself.
However, even with such hasty action, the number of casualties was already in the hundreds.
Even so, the damage would have been greater if one vampire who appeared to belong to Heterosis had not attracted his attention until the end.
‘A level 9 mad blood demon that appeared at the base of Heterosis. Come to think of it, I heard that Alpha, the leader of the hardliners, disappeared before they fell.’
It’s so hard!
Even while so many thoughts were cluttering my head.
The chakra of the lightning bolt of energy rotating fiercely within Jiyoon Yoon’s body continued to swirl and resonate with the world.
Grumbling—
through that, her thoughts begin to force the phenomenon—.
Kwaaaang—!
Soon, a bolt of lightning struck the ground from the sky again.
Exactly over Alpha’s head.
“Aaaah! Kill, kill, kill! Four years too! Heinz too! Ah—all humans!”
“Oh, it’s so strong! “Stop it and die now!”
But he was no ordinary monster either.
A fleeting moment where one second is divided into dozens of equal parts.
Alpha, once again roasted by lightning filled with chakra, tore through the air and crashed in front of her.
“Kihahaak!”
His outer skin was already tattered from several lightning strikes, but his vitality, which was so tremendous that he was exhausted, was quickly recovering his body even at that moment.
As if he were truly immortal.
‘Of course, that’s really not possible.’
Even if she were truly immortal, what she had to do wouldn’t change.
‘The bright blood demon is alive and dead. It would be easiest to blow it all away with maximum firepower… but there’s nothing we can do. That’s not the only way.’
Because the location was not good, it was difficult to generate electricity.
If she were to recklessly unleash maximum firepower in a city like this, the entire area would be blown away along with the barrier the Guardians had set up around her while she was fighting.
If he were not careful, the damage he caused might be greater than the damage caused by that mad blood demon.
Pajik—!
The electricity inside the body swirls wildly, accelerating thoughts beyond their limits.
In an eternity of time where breathing stopped, body metabolism stopped, and bioelectrical exchange stopped—.
Only the chakra within her body spun endlessly.
‘If you don’t die, I’ll burn you until you die!’
Eventually, an inner microcosm opened at the center of the chakra that was spinning like a wheel.
She is Yoon Ji-yoon.
—It became lightning.

“Move quickly! “Moving citizens to a safe area is the priority!”
“Are there not enough therapists? In the name of the government, contact all the priests in the vicinity! “If that doesn’t work, grab him by the leg of his pants or threaten him or whatever it takes to bring him here!”
“Ugh, we need more support on the barrier side! Now, preventing the aftermath is limited! “If it gets hit directly, it will explode in one hit!”
The outskirts of the battlefield where Jiyoon Yoon blocked Alpha.
Guardians of the Returnees Association and agents of the Supernatural Abilities Management Bureau, who had been urgently dispatched to the chaotic scene, were busy moving around.
In fact, it was only recently that they had a relatively peaceful time thanks to the Hahoe mask, and this itself was something they were very familiar with.
Although it was not uncommon for a single villain, not a group, to cause damage on this scale, it did not change much what they had to do.
Anyway, the branch manager who is the problem will be dealt with personally.
And while everyone is busy.
A figure was leisurely passing by the scene outside of everyone’s awareness and approaching the barrier.
‘It hasn’t been long since the incident happened, but this is the response. That’s great. … That means that things like this happened frequently.’
Heinz, who had concealed his presence using “Nenial of Existence,” nodded heavily.
Even as far as he knew, news about terrorism broke out almost every day, so it wasn’t that strange.
‘And when this news spreads, the villains who had been quiet will begin to rampage one by one.’
Normally, when things are quiet and there is nothing going on, everyone notices, but it is human psychology that the moment someone takes the initiative to make a fuss, they follow suit.
In the meantime, I’ve made it quiet by catching the protruding feet, but I’ll probably have to go through quite a bit of trouble for a while to get it right again.
‘Tsk, I can’t help it. First of all, it looks like Jin So-ran got out safely, so we can visit him later. I think we should deal with the guy inside first.’
At this close a distance, you could tell where your subordinates were without having to use “Monarch’s Authority.”
She and several other surviving vampires of Heterosis are huddled some distance away.
‘This momentum… I’m sure it’ll be at the level of Holy Blood. However, the fact that Jin So-ran is still alive means that they had no intention of killing him from the beginning.’
I could feel the intense energy of two beings clashing beyond the barrier.
There was no way she would have been able to escape from an opponent that size on her own, so she probably took advantage of the intervention of a powerful member of the association to avoid killing her on purpose while she was on the other side.
‘I was quite lucky. I guess I can find out about that guy myself from now on.’
Heinz, who arrived in front of the barrier, looked at it for a moment as an “insight.”
Immediately, I used “Non-existence” to lightly ignore it and entered the interior.
And what he faced right after that.
“It’s so big!” Heinzugh!”
Qarring—! Quang!
“No, do you see how he kept looking for someone else while putting the lady in front of him? “As you can see, your manners are perfect!”
It’s so hard!
A monster half-turned into charcoal who desperately cries out for him.
It was a scene where a being made of light… no, electricity was grabbing the guy and repeatedly hitting him with lightning, roasting him.
‘…My Name? is it. Then he must be the alpha.’
Heinz, who quickly came to a conclusion about the other person’s identity based on small clues, watched the situation with interest.
Even in his defeated form, Alpha was constantly regenerating and running rampant, destroying the surroundings, but in his current state, where he had lost his reason and only had his instincts left, it was not enough to fight against an opponent who literally moved like lightning.
‘It looks similar to the lightning spirit… ‘Are you a chakra user, a power closer to the fundamental concept than natural power?’
Chakra, a superpower that completes the inner microcosm and intervenes in specific concepts and phenomena.
I’ve seen quite a few users on Earth in the past, but this was the first time I’d seen someone who had reached the level of replacing the entire body with a single concept called ‘thunderbolt’.
‘…You’re strong. I don’t think that’s full power right now either.’
Because it was an unfamiliar system known only through knowledge, it was difficult to accurately estimate its level, but it was clear that the other person had risen to a somewhat high rank among transcendents.
“Ah ah ah ah ah-! I have to kill Heinz! If you interfere, I will kill you too!”
“Okay, okay. Okay, so you die first!”
Alpha screams harshly even as her whole body turns to charcoal from the lightning that strikes again.
No matter how you look at that guy’s condition, he was not sane.
Even considering that his mind was polluted by mad blood demons… that is, predation of his own kind, his obsession with Heinz felt somewhat unnatural.
As if someone had forced it into my mind.
‘Well, it’s meaningless to argue about a crazy person’s way of thinking. If we leave it like this, I think he’ll die soon.’
It was still holding on with its superior regenerative power, but it seemed to be slowly reaching its limit.
So should we just be satisfied that the culprit of this situation has been smoothly eliminated and just step down?
‘…That can’t be possible!’
The damage this side suffered from this incident was considerable.
The loss of Heterosis’ property, including its office, was only a minor part.
More than half of the vampires in the office were swept up in Alpha’s rampage and died, and Jin So-ran, who was acting as Heinz’s representative, also suffered injuries that will require recovery for the time being.
But in a situation like this, you can’t just sit back!
‘So this side definitely has the right to take just revenge.’
Okay, so this is it.
It was definitely not a steal.
Puuuk—
“Kuuuuck!” You…? Heinz—!”
It is just a very small silver liquidation procedure.
***
Somewhere in China.
The person sitting in the wheelchair took a deep sigh and, feeling a bit reluctant, attempted to contact his unwelcome boss.
-hello? Are you a ruler?
“Yes doctor. “I’ve contacted you to inform you that the item has been delivered to your desired location.”
-Woohoho! is that so? That’s good, that’s good!
A frivolous voice that makes a fuss as always.
However, the ruler did not show much and calmly said only the necessary words.
A rough overview of what has happened so far.
“It is said that Korea’s brain emperor Ji-yoon Yoon joined the scene much earlier than expected. I deliberately targeted the moment when she was away. It is said that it was not very meaningful.
-Hmm, that’s a bit disappointing! No matter how much of an outcast I am, I wish things would have been a little more exciting!
A light clicking sound was heard over the communication line.
After a few issues, the interim report was completed without any major issues.
-Thank you for your hard work, Ruler! He must have been difficult to deal with because he was a crazy friend!
“It wasn’t that bad. “It’s also a familiar thing.”
The words of the ruler contained the meaning, ‘No matter how difficult and difficult it is to handle, you are not the only one.’ But of course, he could not say such a thing openly.
-I hope my heartfelt gift is safely delivered to my friend Heinz! Of course, there are also workarounds in case things aren’t delivered properly, but it’s better to be quick and easy! Uhhhhhhhh!
“Hmm, is he that important? Of course, I’ve heard that they can prey on their own kind and still be fine, but I’m not sure how great that is. Was there a need to consume even the level 9 vampire that I worked so hard to create?”
For Yulryeongja, head of the East Asia branch of the Buncheonhoe, Alpha was also part of the great force, so he couldn’t help but feel dissatisfied with this meaningless operation.
Even so, there was a significant power leak while fighting Hahoetal, so what a waste.
-To harvest the Yulryeongja, it is natural to sow seeds! It is natural to fatten livestock before slaughter! In that sense, investing in a defective product called Alpha was a very efficient decision! It’s just a level 9 horse, but its intelligence has degenerated and it’s no better than an animal.
“Hmm, it bothers me that I can’t quite figure out his whereabouts.”
-That’s why this operation is necessary! We gently drop the bait and make it go where we want it to go. And if you can use that body, you will finally be able to complete the ‘Fully Evolved Creature Project’! Hahahaha!
The doctor’s laughter, cooler than ever, came over the communication line.
How could it not be like that?
It was one of the large projects he drafted and commissioned researchers from all over the world to research, along with a small amount of dragon’s blood.
Although the Korean research institute was destroyed along the way, the research was making steady progress.
The completion was finally within sight thanks to the newly discovered mutant vampire named Heinz.
-Uhihahaha!
The doctor continued to laugh with satisfaction at his great research and then ended the communication.
Not knowing that a long time had passed since what was essentially his secret wish had already been leaked to someone else and made by that person.
