Just as promised to that Heretic God, for a week I collected my blood daily, always before meals, that’s because my body produced a lot of blood, you could even say that there was more blood inside my body than people could imagine given my size.
I found out that after the fight against King Makari, the amount of blood I lost back then was more than three times what it should have been.
After that, I did some tests and found that the amount of blood in my body should be more than 10 liters, besides that it looked like I could recover more than 5 liters of blood in a few hours of rest, if I took a potion it would be even faster.
A Vampire’s body really is amazing, so I knew I would get the amount of blood that the Heretic God wanted easily, I just wasn’t in a hurry, so I took my time calmly so as not to interfere with my recovery.
During that week I talked more with Sophia and Ragnar, since I wasn’t in physical training conditions at the moment and I couldn’t read books anymore, I went to train my Aura with those two.
It seems that Ragnar has been training Sophia for a long time, she has reached a growth barrier that according to her is showing signs of breaking, she wants to make sure that in her next evolution she will become a more Elf-oriented type of use Auras, so it has learned from Ragnar.
Ragnar also told me that she has been making preparations to get a strong Familiar, she will ask for my help with the summoning but wants to prepare everything else herself, in addition to being mentally prepared.
In addition to the normal Aura trainings, I thought of different ways to use my Aura, according to Ragnar Auras can be used directly on the body to strengthen or give certain characteristics that the Aura has for the body.
You can also use Aura on weapon or armor, it seems that Aura can even be used on spells, Spirit Runes, and skills.
The problem is the level of control required to do such things, even Ragnar can’t do these things, mainly because he’s gotten used to just using the power of the Aura, merging it with other powers is something new for him in what Sophia is being of great help to him.
I noticed during that time that every time I passed by the temple Athena was there talking to Vanessa, one of those times I found even Athena crying while Vanessa was hugging her.
I think she’s opening up to Vanessa who is someone she looks up to, plus Vanessa has been through similar situations, maybe the conversations she’s having with Vanessa haven’t even had her friends who followed her here.
Speaking of which, those 6 friends of Athena seem to have gotten into the rhythm of the city after more than a month.
They offered to be Vanessa’s subordinates, I also heard Vanessa say since she was thinking about turning Athena into her daughter, I told her to wait a little longer, Athena is still deeply shaken and her decisions are being made very impulsively, becoming a Vampire is much more serious than changing religions, it’s not something to be taken lightly.
Of course, when I said those words to my daughter, she looked at me strangely, I know she was thinking that I’ve turned people into other races several times, and saying something that seems so hypocritical might be weird, I appreciate her not pointing that out.
But all I did was to save someone in times of emergency or to selfishly sate my curiosity, but in this case, it’s different, she knows that too.
———–
With that time passed and the promised day arrived, I must say that I was almost completely recovered, I should be around 92% to 94% recovered in my estimation.
I had easily managed to accumulate 2500 liters of my blood which I kept fresh using blood magic.
At the request of that Heretic God, Anton forged a coffin made entirely of Mithril large enough to contain my blood and God Fragment, there were various ritual circles, Runes, and magic crystals of various elements in parts that seemed random to me.
This coffin seemed to be the second one that he created since the first one was a failure, he created it to the specifications that that Heretic God gave him, not even Rakan understood what those magic circles could do, he only understood that there were dozens of rituals connected to work at the same time, but that would have to be controlled separately by the same person, which should be impossible.
That day we were on a new floor of the Dungeon that I created just for that, there was nothing there but a big space, there were no traps or monsters.
The crystal flies out of the cord around Athena’s neck, then a beam of energy crystallizes a trail on the ground forming another complicated ritual circle, then the coffin floated halfway through this ritual before being placed on the ground before being filled with my blood.
After that I took the God Fragment to the circle and placed it inside the coffin, the crystal containing the Heretic God of Fun and the False Hero Soul comes to me stopping in my hands.
“Is ready?” (I) 𝗼𝐯𝗹．𝐞𝘁
“Yes, thanks to you I’ll be able to have fun again, thank you.” (Evil God of Fun)
“What will happen to the False Hero’s Soul?” (I)
“Nothing for the next 3 days, what’s left of my power in this crystal will protect this Soul.” (Evil God of Fun)
“So don’t delay doing what you need, unfortunately I’m going to miss this show, I’m going to need more than 1 month to complete the body, but I’m still in doubt about the gender, I think I’ll use both, this can bring more tools of fun… hahahahaha…” (Hereful God of Fun)
“(I really don’t understand this Heretic God, this madman is even treating his own body that he hasn’t even created yet as a diversion tool…)” (I)
“When it’s time for my rebirth you’ll know or should I say you’ll feel it in your blood, at that moment give me a name, names have power, they represent people, give identity, and prove their existence.” (Evil God of Fun)
“I already thought of a name, so don’t worry.” (I)
“See you in 1 month…” (Hereful God of Fun)
The Heretic God of Fun comes out of the crystal as a small transparent sphere, I can feel him trying to control his presence so as not to hurt anyone present, so he dives into my blood where the God Fragment is already, after that the coffin lid covers it closing completely.
I step away, letting the Runes and ritual circles begin to glow in varying colors more and more intensely, then the large ritual circle on the floor piles up in rainbow colors as the coffin floats dozens of feet into the air.
The ritual circles crystallized on the floor begin to float and separate into dozens of different circles each rotating in a different way in different directions with the only common one being the coffin in the middle which was engulfed by the multicolored light.
After seeing this strange sight a little more, I and the others leave, I look at the crystal in my hand and take it out, it’s time for another preparation.
