    Episode 401

    Following Carmilla Bacchus and Niki also knelt before Zeke.

    Zeke was taken aback when he saw these people suddenly adopting a posture of submission towards him.

    ‘what?’

    It was then that Zeke remembered that Blood King Caligula had the power to subjugate three races.

    ‘The vampire was a white-faced man. Could it be that I have absorbed Caligula’s power and that he recognizes me as his master?’

    Zeke said looking at Carmilla.

    “Get up. I have no intention of becoming the King of Vampires.”

    Then Carmilla bowed her head more deeply and said:

    “That cannot be. The King must lead us.”

    At those firm words Zeke looked behind him at Bacchus and said:

    “Bacchus do you think the same?”

    At those words Bacchus slowly raised his head and opened his mouth.

    “I am a half-vampire so I feel less restrained than my mother. But even so my heart is boiling with loyalty to the King.”

    “Is this a vampire instinct that has nothing to do with your will?”

    “All vampires probably feel that way.”

    Zeke looked at Niki this time.

    Niki had her head bowed looking nervous and different from before.

    “…I can’t seem to adapt.”

    Bacchus spoke to Zeke instead of Niki who couldn’t even raise his head.

    “Nikki is a powerful vampire who received the blood of the True King. It seems that the power of subordination is working directly.”

    The vampire element within Niki’s body seemed to respond to the majesty of Zeke who inherited the title of Blood King.

    Zeke said looking at Niki.

    “Nikki this is an order. Treat me comfortably like you always did.”

    At Zeke’s words Niki barely raised his head and spoke.

    “Your Majesty this is too burdensome an order for me. Please take it back.”

    Zeke shook his head as he watched Nikki refuse his orders.

    ‘What a headache.’

    It was at that time that Zeke was wondering how to deal with this unexpected situation.

    “Your Majesty!”

    Ikeros who had been chained from behind suddenly crawled towards Zig.

    Ikeros’ expression as he looked at him seemed very confused.

    “Oh Your Majesty! No! Why me! Oh Your Majesty! Stop it!”

    Ikeros was a high-level dream demon summoned from the demon world not a dream demon from the phenomenal world.

    However since Caligula’s power affected not only the demons of the phenomenal world but also the demons of the demon world Ikeros also had no choice but to submit to Sieg.

    However as a high-level sleep demon with strong mental power Ikeros was trying to somehow come to his senses to stand up to Zeke’s majesty.

    Zeke stared at Ikeros who was clutching his head and then said with a face of disbelief.

    “Will you obey or not? Just do one thing.”

    Ikeros who tried to somehow resist the majesty of Zeke that flowed naturally despite his light-hearted attitude ultimately failed to overcome his instincts.

    He bowed his head and assumed an attitude of submission to Zeke.

    “I the humble servant Ikerus greets my master.”

    Seeing that even the superior Mongma Ikeros had surrendered Zeke could once again feel the power of Caligula’s power.

    ‘He must have been even more powerful when he was the master of Shambhala. How powerful must the God Slayer have been to frighten such a Blood King?’

    Zeke opened his mouth after thinking about the vampires and dream machines that had surrendered to him.

    “Let’s get out of here first so we can check on Carmilla’s condition.”

    Zeke emerged from Caligula’s tomb leading the seeds he had unintentionally acquired.

    * * *

    Upon arriving at the vampire hideout near Himonas Zeke pondered what to do with the vampires and dreamcatchers who had pledged their loyalty to him.

    ‘I guess there won’t be any major problems since the vampires originally decided to form an alliance.’

    There was at least no danger of betrayal as even the vampire queen Carmilla had sworn to submit herself due to the irresistible power of subordination.

    Moreover vampires were natural-born assassins and sorcerers so they had many uses.

    ‘That aside the problem is over there…’

    Zeke saw Ikeros kneeling in a corner free from his chains.

    Ikeros who originally had a neutral appearance transformed into a completely feminine body after submitting to Zeke and began emitting pheromones that seduce the opposite sex.

    There was no way that Zeke with his unyielding will would fall for the temptation of a dream demon but the pheromones of a high-level dream demon were more powerful than any aphrodisiac in the phenomenal world.

    ‘I’m worried that it might have a negative impact on other articles.’

    Ikeros blushed when he caught Zeke’s gaze and began to emit stronger pheromones.

    Zeke frowned as he looked at Ikeros like that.

    “You’re blatantly exuding the scent of the best. I guess I’ll just seal it…”

    Ikeros shook his head violently at Zeke’s words.

    “That’s because of the nature of the dream and there’s nothing I can do about it! It’s not my will Your Majesty!”

    Originally dream demons were a species that lived by entering other people’s dreams and absorbing their emotions.

    Since temptation is a racial trait the instinct to seduce those stronger than oneself was inevitable.

    ‘Should I just seal it in a ring?’

    Zeke who had been seriously contemplating the matter clicked his tongue and spoke to Ikeros.

    “I will think about your disposal some more so just wait quietly.”

    At Zeke’s cold words Ikeros nodded with a pale face.

    He left Ikeros and entered the room where Carmilla was.

    Carmilla who was lying in the coffin got up from her seat to greet Zeke when he came in.

    “All right. Just lie down. That’s an order.”

    At Zeke’s command Carmilla lay back down in the coffin.

    Zeke who had decided to accept their loyalty asked Bacchus who was nursing her from the side while enduring the discomfort he felt from being treated condescendingly.

    “How is Carmilla’s condition?”

    “I have recovered a lot but my power as a true king has not yet fully returned so the situation is unstable in many ways.”

    Zeke approached the coffin and examined Carmilla.

    The vampire’s already pale face turned even paler.

    Zeke carefully placed his hand on her forehead.

    “ah….”

    Carmilla’s lips twitched in embarrassment as his hand touched her forehead.

    Zeke ignored Carmilla’s reaction and drew on the power of the Samjian to examine her physical condition.

    Tsk tsk tsk―

    A red aura stretched out from his body and flowed into Carmilla.

    With the power of the Samjian Zeke was able to clearly understand the state of Carmilla’s body.

    Zeke’s understanding of the soul also grew as he absorbed the power and authority knowledge of Caligula the Blood King.

    Since Caligula was there to rule over the vampire clan understanding of the race was bound to increase significantly.

    ‘The balance between body and mind is disturbed so problems keep occurring.’

    Originally he was supposed to sleep in hiding until his body grew.

    However because of the circumstances the cracks seemed to have gotten bigger as the force flowed back while releasing Caligula’s seal while being forcibly broken.

    After putting Carmilla to sleep with the power of the Three Eyes Zeke raised his head and spoke to Bacchus.

    “If we leave it like this the gap between body and mind will likely widen the cracks in Carmilla’s soul.”

    Bacchus was perplexed at those words.

    “A rift in the soul… Is there no way to resolve it? Please save Mother!”

    Bacchus immediately knelt on the floor and bowed his head.

    Zeke said to Bacchus

    “Get up. Blood King Caligula is the ruler of the White-faced Tribe also known as the White-faced King. With his knowledge and power it may be possible to heal Carmilla as well.”

    Bacchus raised his head at Zeke’s words.

    “Thank you. I will do whatever I can. Just tell me!”

    “Then go out for a moment. I need to perform a ritual to cure Carmilla.”

    Bacchus flinched at the words telling him to go out but soon closed the door and went outside.

    ‘There are things that are necessary for treatment.’

    Zeke first summoned Richmond and Bane.

    Soon Richmond and Bane emerged from the shadows.

    “Did you call Master?”

    “I have come to you at your master’s call.”

    Zeke looked at Richmond first and said.

    “Give me back the dagger of Royal Vampire Garin that I gave you before Richmond.”

    Richmond flinched at Zeke’s words.

    “Wasn’t that the one you gave me?”

    “I left it for you. Bring it quickly.”

    Richmond moved slowly internally grumbling that it was fatal for Zeke to give and take the dagger.

    “I can hear you swearing inside.”

    “Huh!”

    Richmond often forgot that he was a summoner.

    Zeke who quickly received the dagger brought by the surprised Richmond took out Garin’s dagger and the ancient bloodline magic book that he had kept in his inventory.

    ‘I didn’t know where to use it so I just kept it but I ended up using it like this.’

    He spoke to Richmond and Bane holding a dagger and a book of Bloodline magic.

    “I will fill the cracks in the soul of Jinjo Incarnation Carmilla and grow her body. While performing the ritual I will block any outside access.”

    “Understood master! Leave it to me.”

    “Okay I understand.”

    Unlike Bane who answered faithfully Richmond who had his dagger taken away grumbled and answered.

    Although their attitudes were different Richmond and Bain both worked diligently to create a barrier around Zeke to prevent any outside interference.

    After confirming this Zeke approached Carmilla who was lying in the coffin. Zeke instinctively realized how to perform the ritual perhaps because he had absorbed Caligula.

    He first took out Garin’s dagger and stabbed Carmilla’s fingertip while she was sleeping.

    As I dropped a few drops of the blood flowing from Carmilla’s finger onto the surface of the ancient Blood Magic Book the Blood Magic Book soon absorbed Carmilla’s blood and began to emit a dark red energy.

    Zig held the Bloodline Magic Book and Garin’s Dagger in both hands and summoned the power of the Three Eyes.

    Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

    With the power of Samjian Zeke extracted the royal vampire energy contained in the Bloodline Magic Book and the dagger.

    He injected that energy straight into Carmilla’s body.

    Kwakwakwakwa―

    As the power of the Royal Vampire seeped into Carmilla’s body a change soon occurred.

    Carmilla’s body began to grow gradually.

    “Ugh…..”

    Carmilla tossed and turned in pain as she tried to wake up from her forced growth.

    Zeke used the power of the Three Eyes to hold her in place so she wouldn’t regain consciousness.

    Because it was a process of forcibly bridging the gap between her body and mind it seemed like the pain would be less if her mind was asleep.

    After being imbued with the power of the Royal Vampire Carmilla soon grew into the body of an adult woman.

    It was a forced growth that went beyond the time of growth and returned to the physical state before resurrection.

    ‘Okay so far so good.’

    All that remained was to mend the rift in Carmilla’s soul and allow her mind to fully adapt to her grown body.

    Zeke looked into Carmilla’s soul with his three-eyed gaze.

    He discovered Carmilla’s soul with a crack in its surface and reached out to it.

    Tsk tsk tsk―

    The power of the Three Eyes was so strong that it could heal the cracks in the soul.

    After Zeke restored Carmilla’s soul he made detailed adjustments to ensure that there was no distortion in the mind so that it could fully adapt to the body.

    Since he had absorbed all of Caligula’s power and the power of the Samjian itself was an extension of the Blood Eye it was natural for him to be able to control this power from the beginning.

    Zeke who had recovered Carmilla’s soul more easily than expected slowly opened his eyes after checking her condition one last time.

    ‘I guess it worked.’

    The dagger and bloodline magic book that had been imbued with the power of the royal vampire turned to ash and disappeared.

    Zeke flinched for a moment but decided to check later and woke Carmilla up with his three-eyed gaze.

    “hmm….”

    Carmilla opened her eyes having returned to her original body.

    The vampire’s beautiful jewel-like eyes shone.

    When Carmilla came to she was shocked to see her own grown body.

    “Your body is back to normal?”

    Carmilla who had jumped up from the coffin could not help but be surprised to see that she had become stronger than before.

    “How could this happen….”

    Startled and flustered she realized that Zeke was standing next to her and immediately lowered her head.

    “I apologize Your Majesty. I was so disrespectful that I acted disrespectfully.”

    “It’s okay. More importantly how is your body?”

    Carmilla raised her head and cheered.

    Just like before I felt the power of the royal vampire from her.

    Carmilla’s eyes shook violently.

    “My body is brimming with power. And… my mind is filled with ancient knowledge I never knew before. The lost ancient blood magic and the summoning formula for the Blood Golem… Forgotten knowledge that only royal vampires can use.”

    Zeke realized that the dagger and the ancient bloodline magic book had not just disappeared but that their power had been transferred to Carmilla.

    “At this level you will be able to display power greater than that of the True King. If you learn all the blood magic you may be able to display power greater than that of the Royal Vampire.”

    At Zeke’s words Carmilla immediately knelt before him.

    “I thank the King for the grace he has bestowed upon me.”

    She paused for a moment then looked at Zeke and spoke in a determined voice.

    “I am your loyal servant your closest and sharpest sword to protect you. Whatever your Majesty commands I will gladly carry it out. Whatever command you give please give it to me.”

    Zeke said looking at Carmilla like that.

    “Okay I will give the order.”

    He opened his mouth slowly.

    “Laura Agamemnon. Tell me everything you know about my mother.”
