Episode 249. The head of the Decassus family (1)
Vampires, one of the great powers of the upper class.
The solid pillars that make up them are the great six families of pure blood.
And one of them was ‘Amulam de Decassus’, the ancestor of the Decassus family.
My mouth hurts when I say two words.
Strongest.
There could be no entity more appropriate to modify that word.
Jerrit! Jerrit!
Mana transmitted through the skin.
The reason for the sense of intimidation must be the authority accumulated over the eons of time.
At most, it was an enemy of such a different rank that it was difficult for a player to face the monsters of the middle layer.
‘If we fight 1:1, the win rate won’t be even 3%…’
Jinhyeok moistened his lower lip with his tongue.
The reason these monsters were able to come here was because they had overcome the limitations of the system by investing countless coins and relics.
Or maybe he paid more than that.
‘That must mean that I must obtain Balmung.’
Jinhyeok looked at the target through the ‘eyes of gluttony’.
[Amulam de Decassus]

Details: Failed to view detailed information of target due to insufficient level of Gluttony Eye.
[Copy Conditions]
Amulam takes great pride in being of the purest blood. He must be certain that anyone who drank his blood would become a follower of his command. Drink his blood and break free from his brood’s mind control. If you can, you will be able to copy one of his unique abilities and skills.
It was not possible to get all the information because the level difference was so extreme, but I was able to confirm some pretty important things.
The most notable thing is the copy condition.
Again, the absurd conditions popped up this time.
‘Escape from the mind control of such a monster…’
It was no different from saying that he had to put a completely poisoned Holy Grail to his mouth.
It was because the upper echelon’s mental control, which was comparable to that of a godhead, was not at the level of “bearable”.
Moreover, after Amulam released his magic, many signs began to be felt.
“Kick-kick.”
“Are there only two warm-blooded humans?”
“It’s a pity. After a few sips, only bones and skin will remain?”
Playful laughter pierces your eardrums.
Even Decassus’ blood relatives came.
‘Alone would be enough… I’ve been very determined and prepared.’
Jinhyuk swallowed a bitter smile.
The number is at least ten.
Just like the guys I met on the 7th floor, I only picked purebloods.
but.
Even facing such a hopeless situation in front of his eyes, Jinhyeok did not lose his composure.
He is just calculating something with calm eyes.
“You don’t seem to be too upset after hearing my true name.”
“That’s because I knew you were coming.”
“Oh. Did you know we would come?”
“I heard one of your men was staring stupidly this way in the castle’s welcome procession. If you were going to spy on me, why don’t you send some smart guy?”
No matter how much you hide in the crowd, what do you do?
Can’t even hide the unique sinister gaze?
“what!”
One of the blood relatives who was involved in the death of Jinhyeok was furious.
It must have been quite embarrassing to have his tail caught, and his handsome appearance was severely distorted.
“You say it’s a pierced muzzle.”
“The one with the arm must taste like blood. That guy’s right arm is mine.”
“I’ll take the left leg.”
The rest of the blood relatives around him also showed their fangs excitedly.
Right then.
“stop.”
Amulam opened his mouth.
In an instant, the surroundings became quiet as if a rat had died.
Even with the slightest sign of discomfort, the entire underground air sank like the depths of the sea.
Breathing is choking and blood vessels are constricted.
Really. It’s such a terrible pressure that I can’t bear it.
“Certainly… Thatcher seems a bit complacent. But, what are you going to do with knowing that?”
Amulam went through Jinhyeok and looked at Pesis and the spirit beasts.
It’s pretty good, but that’s only human standards.
It wasn’t to the point of going crazy with the family head, who was considered the strongest among vampires.
“…”
When his gaze turned to the sweet potato, he flinched for a moment, but it was really only for a moment.
It was because he knew that the ancient species could not manifest as its main body unless certain conditions were met.
In addition, even if the ancient species were to manifest as the main body, there was no guarantee of a match against Amulam.
but.
Even so, Jinhyuk was smiling.
“I guess you didn’t understand. The lack of power. The fact that I came here even though I knew you would come…”
Think carefully. While rolling that handsome head.
It’s always in an overwhelming position, so I don’t know.
“It’s all about the situation I wanted.”
The corners of Jinhyuk’s mouth went up.
at the same time.
[The relic ‘renegade bracelet’ is activated!]
A deep sense of incongruity flowed out.
“This can’t be…!”
Amulam’s expression collapsed.
I couldn’t help but be flustered.
The traitor’s bracelet was the sacred object they had.
And it was in the midst of the vampires that the bracelet was activated.
＊＊＊
The relic that existed on the 11th floor, the ‘Bracelet of the Renegade.’
It was one of the cursed relics used to summon the demon king, and was secured by vampires to seek cooperation from demons.
And the traitor’s bracelet was kept by the Decassus family, but the holy relic suddenly started to activate its effect.
grumble.
Black smoke filled the interior of the basement in an instant and began to go out.
“What kind of idiot… activated the holy relic!”
Amulam roared and turned his head.
Then there.
rattle.
“Ugh… I, I. I… didn’t want to… I couldn’t help it. No, I didn’t know.”
There was a vampire who did not know what to do due to regret and fear.
Ophelia.
He was the only vampire who survived when he faced the Hounds of Decassus on the 7th floor.
Vampires were interested in the empire, of course, and the purpose of Balmung was all information she had confided.
‘It wasn’t that he was branded as a concubine, but he destroyed his mind almost to the same level.’
Thanks to that, I was able to make a solid plan.
How can I most effectively obtain Balmung?
Also, will he be able to increase his odds against the family head, who is considered to be the strongest among vampires?
every.
And those minor preparations have come to fruition now.
[The owner of the holy object is ‘forcibly transferred’ from Ophelia to Jinhyeok Kang by the will of the acquirer.] [The
property effect of ‘defection’ and ‘contamination’ is given due to the effect of the holy object.] [
Select a target. It takes about 10 minutes to prepare.)]
The name ‘renegade’ wasn’t given for nothing.
True to its name, the possession method and effect of the holy object were also different from those of ordinary items.
Just like right now.
Parts Tsutsu!
Jinhyeok looked at the skull bracelet that appeared on his wrist with satisfaction.
I already thought about how to use the attribute effect.
All that remains is to hold out until the activation time.
Right then.
“Ophelia! How dare you betray me?
Amulam slashed his claws mercilessly.
To tear the traitor apart at once.
However, it was not the body made of flesh and bone that the fingernails split.
shred!
A piece of ice in the shape of Ophelia shattered.
A pile made of glacial molding.
With a 5-star barrier, it even gave an appropriate trick-or-treat effect, so it played a great role as a one-time trick.
“Switching…? Sooner or later?”
“It was when I turned my head for a moment. Originally, it wouldn’t have happened, but because I was flustered, there was a subtly gap in my magic power. I guess the bracelet and Ophelia were quite shocking? If only the head of the household could see a gap.”
“Are you saying you just stabbed that gap?”
“That’s enough gap for me.”
There is no such thing as great acrobatics.
Because it wasn’t the first time I’d dealt with monsters that were absolutely self-sufficient.
“…I thought it was a puppy, but it has teeth.”
Amulam’s gaze at Jinhyeok changed.
It was the kind of look that acknowledged me as an enemy even a little bit.
“But it’s a pity. If you had attacked me or eliminated my blood relatives using that gap, the odds would have increased even a little bit. Why did you save Ophelia? As long as you have the renegade bracelet in your hand, it won’t matter whether you die or not?”
“Still, he’s an insider who gave me important information, and I can’t let you kill him.”
“yes…?”
This time, even Ophelia widened her eyes in surprise.
It was a face that he never imagined would think of himself, who was once an enemy, that much.
“It’s not like poetry, it’s a friendly personality. Well, that’s good. Take that kind of traitor with you as much as you like. I was going to wipe them all out anyway.”
Amulam raised his right hand.
That’s a sign.
Took!
fault!
The hounds of Decassus moved with the light sound of spurring the ground.
fast.
The Vampires, who had narrowed the distance in an instant, pulled out cold weapons glowing with dark red light.
The moment when I was sure that if I didn’t respond, I would be annihilated.
“mosquito!”
Sweet potato controlled the summoned beasts.
“okay.”
“huh!”
“Dalgrak!”
The spirit beasts and T-Bone moved.
As if to prove you didn’t waste your time in the worm labyrinth.
Even the skill was felt in the way they settled down in an orderly fashion.
[Undine & Sylphid activate ‘Elemental Shield’!] A
pentagon-shaped shield appeared as the water and wind harmonized.
Perpuck!
Gulleong!
Nails and blades were blocked by the shield.
“Damn it, the wind blows your eyes. Keugh!”
“This, what is this! Damn it!”
“Cool! Kkeok!”
Swords and claws crossed the stretched shield, but only water and wind crossed.
Physical attacks were useless in front of elemental magic.
And the moment the vampires hesitated for a moment.
This time, a crack appeared in the ground and a huge rock made The hand devours the vampires.
[The gnome uses ‘Land Fist’!]
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwang!
There was a roar and thick smoke erupted.
But the attack didn’t end there.
Gnome!
Kukukukuku!
Salamander’s flames and sweet potatoes. The breath of the two merged into one.
The light of the two different attributes blended into one place, and the interior became dry enough to dry out the lips.
As if foretelling what was to happen in the future
. Are you serious?”
“Because my kids aren’t naturally shy.”
Jinhyeok smiled brightly.
Anyway,
it’s like this, let’s test who has a stronger body
.
Condensed light crossed the middle of the tomb,
whitening everyone’s vision from the intense heat and flash.
