Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Chapter 317: Sephone´s evolution and the strongest vampires

On Monday, I was able to play the game because the admin event was still going on. According to Kaito, many parties were able to complete the quest this time.

Among them were Mels group. It seems that Mangetsu-sans group cleared the game by using their special moves to prevent the attack of Agares Crocodile. That's a quintessence. However, it seems that the village was damaged by the attack after they prevented the attack.

It seems that the other party also made a provocation from lifting the curse. No one seems to be completely unharmed so far and Kaito was in a good mood.

And before checking the event rewards with Chiffon and the others, the event info comes.

I got a title. I'll check this later.

Overall, I'm getting too little experience for the three demons I've killed. Maybe it's the NPCs who participated, but if they weren't there, I wouldn't be able to win and there's nothing I can do about this. At any rate, my remaining skill points are now 68pt. Status points went to magic power as usual.

I managed to get my earth magic to level 30 in skills? I couldn't get dark magic to it yet. Ion's dragon technique skill is the same as Lily's...I thought she would get something else. At this rate, I have a feeling Nowa won't be any different.

While I was thinking about this, suddenly the surroundings became dark. This is Sephones trial. It's scary when it comes out of nowhere.

"Huhu. You think of things that are out of your mind. Humans are funny creatures, aren't they?"

I heard a grown woman's voice. But it was dark and I couldn't tell where she was. I know it's this way from her voice and presence, but...

"Ah. Can't you see me? Here"

The sound of snapping fingers brightens up the surroundings. It seems that I am in a castle.

And on the throne was a grown woman in a jet-black dress.

"You can see me now, can't you? Let me first say my name. I am an origin vampire. I am the first vampire born in this world and the most powerful vampire"

So this is the vampire that Caim-san can't beat even if he gives it his all.

"Well, I'm certainly an impossible being to kill. If there is no more darkness in the world, I may be able to die, but the darkness will always remain, even if the world disappears"

Ah. So that's why it's impossible to kill...that's impossible. That makes sense.

"Let's get down to business...first, let's talk about the evolution of vampires. But to put it simply, vampire evolution means getting closer to me"

"Does that mean that as Sephone evolves, she becomes more perfect and closer to immortality?"

"That's right. As a human, you understand how heavy that is, don't you?"

Immortality is the dream of mankind and many people have pursued this dream. I don't want to die. I lost my parents and thought about death myself.

That is why I understand it. Death is a remedy. If you have a bad experience, you want to die. There are many theories about what happens when you die, but I believe that losing consciousness is as close to death as possible.

It becomes pitch black and that's the end. There is no such thing as consciousness and you are released from all the unpleasant and painful things. I think that is death.

On the other hand, I think complete immortality is a being who has given up that remedy. No matter how bad, painful or sad it is, it is an existence that cannot die. That is immortality.

"That's right. It's okay for now, but sooner or later you will run into that wall. I did it and all vampires have suffered from it. If you are a summoner, you will hit that wall too. Be prepared for it. Now, let us evolve"

...Huh?

"Don't you have some sort of trial?"

"Im not like the Dragon Kings. I have no taste for toying around. To approach me in the first place is a trial in itself. There is no need to prepare for it"

I see...wait a minute. Am I being played by the Dragon Kings? I don't agree!

"Tell that opinion to the Dragon Kings. I don't care what happens to you"

That's terrible! You teach me and then run away from your responsibility!

"It's a skill that will keep you alive for a long time"

Don't be so smug! That skill never existed!

"Well, let's just say they have their reasons..."

"Eh?"

"I've finished the evolution of Sephone. See you later"

"Wa, Wait"

I think she said something important! Tell me why!

I was dropped into darkness and found myself in my room...awful.

Then Sephone fell on my bed.

"Nuo!? What the hell!? Just when I thought the power was boiling over, it's pitch black!"

Of course it would be pitch black if you had your face pressed against the futon.

"Calm down, Sephone. You're just pressing your face against the covers"

"...What"

Sephone pulls her face out of the comforter. Surprisingly, there is no change...well, the clothes have changed a bit...but Info informs me that I should not be fooled by her appearance.

Sephones evolution has been completed. The effect of shadow summoning skill has been increased

She has acquired the scythe skill. Scythe Skill [Slice] has been acquired

Transfer skill has been acquired

Resurrection skill has been acquired

Dark Wave Motion skill has been acquired

There is such a thing as increased effectiveness. What's going to happen to that bat-like creature? Check the power of Sephone in the underground training area.

First, she summoned the evolved shadow.

"Oh! I can now summon many!"

There are ten bat-like creatures. They are all coming at us. It must be annoying.

But the annoyance doesn't stop. The bat-like creatures revive even after being defeated. Furthermore, when the bat-like creatures suck blood, Sephone's vitality and magic power are restored. It is like the power of transfer.

Of course, it was possible to transfer it from myself to others and since revival also adapts to Sephone, it came to be able to die once even in the daytime.

In conclusion, she's become more annoying. It's the type of thing you don't want to have as an enemy. She's also learned the firepower technique, dark wave motion and she's getting stronger.

"Huuhuuhu. With this, I'm one step closer to the Demon King!"

Sephone seems pleased. Will the future really come as the origin vampire said? I seriously thought so.

Since I had come all the way to the training ground, I decided to evolve Astel as well.

The evolved Astel has the same appearance as Luna. But I think her face looks a little different. Then Astel spun around and spoke.

"How am I doing? Takuto papa. Have I grown pretty?"

She's here to combine my name and papa! Oops, not so much.

"Ah. You look pretty"

"Thank you!"

Astel hugs me.

But now the unicorn's conditions are met. It meant goodbye to Astel and Liqueur.

Then Astel gives a shocking word.

"Takuto papa...I and Liqueur-san are already prepared for this. But just for today, please let me spoil you in this form"

"Ah...okay."

Like with the other summoned beasts, both Astel and Liqueur knew it all. All I could do was grant Astel's tiny wish.
