The Blood-Hunter

2. Undead

[Last trial finished!]

Huh?

[Being called "Nero" has become a player!]

Argh.... Too loud.... Can't I die in peace?

Wait a minute... I'm still alive?

[Player received several new skills due to his new race!]

New race? Wait... I heard about that before...

There are said to be some players which lost their humanity after clearing Gates and turned into new races which hold tremendous power.

One of them is the guild leader of the Avalon Guild who become a Dragon with the power to swap between his human appearance and his dragon form.

But the Empire rarely makes such exceptions and usually hunts those Players down due to their dangerous potential and destructive behavior.

Whatever... I just have to get something which allows me to become such an exception.

I opened my eyes and then saw a screen in front of my eyes.

[Skills]

[Vampirism. Rank: A]

Fuck.

Out of all races I got the most anti-human race. Shit! This means I have to hide this until the empire can't get rid of me or dispose me... But Vampire out of all...

Whatever, what are the other skills.

I scrolled a little down and then looked at the other skills.

[1st Progenitor, Rank: EX]

[Rapid-Regeneration, Rank A]

[Deathless Thirst, Rank: ?]

[Superior race, Rank: B+]

[Blood-Manipulation, Rank: A+]

As I looked at them one particular skill has caught my attention.

First Progenitor... Does that mean I'm the first vampire that has been born?

I then clicked on the skill to see if a description would appear which luckily happened.

[1st Progenitor, EX]

[The First Progenitor is the apex of the vampire world. He is the ancient progenitor from whom all other vampires descend, possessing unparalleled power, eternal life, and a deep connection to the primordial forces that birthed his kind. He is the embodiment of vampiric legacy, and possesses respect, wisdom, and authority within the vampire society. It is said that his presence alone shakes the underworld with each step they take.]

I see... To be honest that doesn't sound bad. I don't have anything against being a vampire, I just don't like the idea of the Empire killing me because of it.

But this looks really good, its even an EX-skill, the strongest rank a skill can possess.

I then looked at the other skills but each of them was exactly what their name suggested. [Superior race] was a passive skill which in short was the reason for my massive stat increase in each stat since I'm a vampire. [Rapid Regeneration] was a skill which allowed me to regenerate my body in any way in exchange for mana. And [blood Manipulation] allowed me to manipulate blood as I wish, hardening it, controlling, creating it in exchange for mana and modify it.

But the last skill was different from the rest, featuring a "?" As rank. But it's probably the most important and strongest skill I possess as 1st progenitor. That was [Deathless Thirst] Which once I clicked it showed me its description.
