Epic of Caterpillar

79 Human Feas

The Veteran Swordsman and the Muscular Woman teamed up on a desperate rush towards the Noble Caravan. However, they quickly met their end as they came across Herbell and Yurei, who made quick work on both seasoned adventurers. They saw with desperation and confusion as two monsters overpowered their own techniques.

"Since when can monsters use Class Skills?! This is impossible!!!"

"Monsters wouldn\'t never be able to use such advanced techniques… And that Lich sword, isn\'t that a [Legendary] Class Relic?! How can this be?!"

The Muscular woman fought bravely, showing all her masterful [Techniques], dancing around with her powerful Claymore. Herbell had quite the challenge, having to dodge several times, he was forced to diminish the woman with Curses and long-distance magic.

When the woman was weakened enough, Herbell slashed her legs apart, finishing her off with a stab on the heart. Weirdly enough, the woman died with a smile and excitement on her face.

On the other side, the Veteran Swordsman had never fought with such a skillful and intelligent Ghost like Yurei, who was able to change herself to Ethereal of Corporeal at any time, easily dodging his [Sword Techniques] while slowly poisoning his soul with [Corrosive Soul Curse] alongside [Triple Elemental Ghostly Beam].

The old man realized how his years of experience were nothing against such a being, as he began to despair and tried to run for his life. Yurei finished him off by eating his soul with her Crystal Ball.

While all of this was going on, I told Milim to brainwash the two servants protecting the Noble, while also keeping the Noble asleep.

Truhan played around with the Golden Knight without making her too tired, he was very talented on holding back when he desired.

When I saw that most of the humans were killed, and the ones that managed to run away were being hunted down by Katara, Futima, Dullahuno, and Ghumin. I decided to leave them the runaway adventurers to get some easy EXP.

Futima was rather merciless, she used her hair to protect her body and made her resemble a horrible tentacle abomination. She grabbed the humans while they were still alive and slowly devoured them with her second mouth.

The Undead liked the taste of human flesh more than anything, I cannot deny that I enjoy it very much.

In the end, the participation of the Wolves and Slaves Team was not necessary.

I slowly flew to the battlefield and saw the despairing Golden Knight fighting for her life against Truhan.

Noticing me, Truhan waved his hand.

"Master, I have done as you commanded… The woman has been left alive, enjoy the meal"

The Golden Knight looked at my presence with confusion.

"L-Left alive?! Y-You bastard! You were never serious? Was this all… All of the dead… Was just a game for you…?"

Truhan ignored the woman\'s words as he slowly walked towards Celica who was waiting for him with a pile of Human meat.

I looked at the beautiful face of the woman I was about to devour, I wouldn\'t deny that she was rather beautiful.

"G-Get away! You… you are no ordinary fairy, right? Are you behind this monster group? Are you the new Overlord? Answer me, monster!"

The woman pointed her golden spear against me, looking at me while gritting her teeth.

Since I came down that I never turned off my aura, it was rather amusing that this woman was able to look at my eyes without being completely paralyzed by fear.

"You are a strong one, aren\'t you? How about we play for some time?"

"E-Eh?"

I began to fight with the woman while holding back quite a lot, I only used my [Void Crystal Emperor Long Daggers] and some [Techniques].

Clash!

"Uugh! H-How can a monster use [Dagger Techniques]?! All of this, all of these monsters don\'t make any sense! W-What are you?! What do you want?!"

The woman engulfed her lance with a powerful golden lighting, using a technique named [100 Thundering Strokes], which made several after-images of her lance rain over my body. It was a rather strong attack. It left several small wounds resembling holes on my body, which healed almost instantly.

"S-Such abnormal regenerative power! And those colossal horns! W-What are you?"

After saying these words, the woman used another strong technique named [Blossoming of the Thunder Lance Princess]. Which used to send powerful Lighting attacks towards me with her Lance.

I blocked them with my bare hands, throwing most attacks away, my strong resistance made them seem like nothing.

"G-Get away! Monster! Eh?!"

Getting bored of her desperate display, I knocked her out with a strong attack on her neck.

Surprisingly, her neck wasn\'t shattered, and she was barely hanging on her life, I used this opportunity to read some of her memories and obtain precious information.

She seems to be one of the strongest Royal Knights on the Kingdom, she wasn\'t an adventurer at all. She comes from a Noble family and is named Alice Lomanie. She had a rather high position on the family but decided to serve the Kingdom and became a Knight against her parent\'s wishes, her money probably explain the quality of her armor and equipment.

I decided to first drink her blood while she was still alive.

Delicious.

Her blood was of an incredibly high quality, it had an amazing sweetness and even some saltiness to it. As I drank her blood, she began spasming and opened her eyes, seeing my face drinking her blood was perhaps her last memory before completely dying.

When I finished drinking her blood, I instantly gained several Blood Strength points, leveled my skill and even gained a new Bloodline.

[You gained +60 Blood Strength]

[Super Natural Blood Vitality] has leveled from 5 > 7]

[Your Bloodline has successfully evolved into [Gifted Human Noble (Lomanie House) Blood]

Her blood was so nutritious and delicious that I ended up gaining most of her Skills from just drinking it.

Just as I thought, the woman was blessed by a God, and no other than the actual God of Thunder, this explains her Techniques being strong enough to leave wounds on my flesh.

I drank enough blood to not dry her flesh out, her hair became of white yellow and her skin was pale white.

[You gained 261900 EXP]

[LEVEL 53/70?? EXP 422877/514000]

She was completely dead, but somehow, I felt a strange aura slowly growing inside her body.

When I was about to devour her soul, she opened her eyes again, this time, they were of a crimson red color.

Ding!

[You have successfully created your first Vampire Familiar (Alice Lomanie) (Warrior/Concubine Class)] [01/50]

[You obtained a new Title]

[Vampire Family Beginnings]

[Due to defeating someone possessing an Epic and successfully making it your possession, [Brilliant Epic of Alice Lomanie: The Thunder Paladin] has been devoured by your [Epic of Caterpillar]

[Both of your destinies are entangled]

[The God of Thunder: Zeus, is watching you]

This was rather unexpected and terrifying; another God seems to have taken interest in me after taking its toy without his permission.

Well, it was his fault, he didn\'t left a [Divine Protection] like Apollo did for Evan, so I\'ll blame Zeus stupidity.

Anyways, there is no point in worrying now. I decided to analyze the girl on my arms.

It seems that because I slowly drank her blood while she was still alive while leaving her "die" for some time made her reincarnate as a Vampire. Her soul also changed, changing from her usual golden color to a deep dark color, resembling the abyss itself. Probably this never happened before because I usually kill my prey before drinking their blood, I wonder if this can be applied to non-humanoid monsters.

The woman didn\'t understand what was happening as she looked at me with confusion, she was sure to have died, yet, she was "alive" once again. Because both of our faces were rather close to each other, she began to blush, creating a hilarious contrast from her pale skin.

"Y-You… Wasn\'t I… Dead? Hmm? W-Why do I feel so aroused while looking at you?! G-Get away from me, you perverted woman! W-What did you do to me?"

Although I was going to originally eat her delicious flesh, I obtained most of her important skills from her blood alone. I also could sense her flesh slowly losing its quality, fully becoming an Undead.

Seeing that there wasn\'t any point in eating her at this stage and that my [Insatiable Appetite] seemed happy enough with her blood, I decided to leave her "alive".

I explained as plainly as possible to her that I drank almost all her blood and after she died, she reincarnated as a Vampire. Oh, and that I was a Vampire, of course.

"W-What?! I?! A Vampire?! N-Nooo! T-This can\'t be! You horrible monster! Get away from me! Noooo!"

Although she tried to run away, there was a strange barrier surrounding her that didn\'t let her go away without my permission. This must be one of the effects of a [Familiar].

After thirty minutes of pointlessly struggling, the girl fell down the ground and began to cry.

"Oooh… Why? I\'m sorry father, mother… Brothers… I can\'t go back now, not as a Vampire… I\'m such a disgrace to the family… No, I guess I always was…"

Having heard the woman cry for thirty whole minutes, I began to get annoyed.

"Sigh… Are you done crying? I gave you half an hour, that should had been enough. You are my Familiar now, follow me"

"E-Eh?! Don\'t you see that I am crying here? Don\'t you have any feelings?! Of course, you don\'t, you are a horrible monster! I can\'t imagine what horrible things will you do to me! You will… touch me… and bite me… and slap… me… Oooh…"

While finished her sentences, the woman began to blush and breathe heavily, probably getting aroused on the thought of me touching her "pure" body. Is it an effect of her becoming a Vampire of my Bloodline or was she always like this?

Anyways, after she became a Vampire, she seems to have changed her nature a lot. When she saw my people devouring her former comrades, she didn\'t feel as bad as before. And after some minutes, it seems that she became quite loyal, calling me "Master" without realizing and doing most of the things I ordered her without thinking it hard enough. However, she regained some of her sanity and insulted me from time to time.

These must be the effects of her Familiar status kicking in.

Well, this isn\'t really a bad thing at all, she is a natural beauty, and after becoming a Vampire, it seems that her charm increased several times.

I quickly accepted her as a new slave. In the end, she helped with carrying the human corpses, weapons, and equipment without much hesitation.

I still want to check on her stats and experiment more with her emotions and reactions, but that will need to be moved for tomorrow.

We had a big human feast in the Kingdom and most of the townsfolk were invited too. The human meat is incredibly delicious and revitalizing, and because we killed so many humans, there was meat for several weeks.

The Veteran\'s meat was especially delicious, and we ate it at all with my wives. I also ate several Familiars that the humans summoned, all of them had delicious and nutritious flesh, completely different than my summoned monsters.

After seeing Alice doing my command everywhere, my wives asked me who she was. I had to quickly explain who she was and what happened.

Most of them said that I should have eaten her anyways.

I didn\'t want to kill her after she became a Vampire, it was my first Vampire after all, and she was also a beauty. That may come into the factor greatly.

The Noble and his Servants alongside some Humans that we left alive were imprisoned on the Castle Underground. Which is being guarded by several of my strongest servants.

After having an incredible feast with tons of Beer and other preparations, we all went to sleep peacefully. I left Alice outside of my room, guarding my door. She remained motionless as if she were some kind of automatized golem.
