Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn As A Vampire Dragon With a System

Chapter 132 - Erebus' Growth



-----

After half a week of training, preparations, and more, Chaos has decided to assess the power of Abyss and Erebus. He had already seen how strong others had grown, but he had been training more with these two because they had grown closer to him.

He had been teaching Erebus how to use physical fighting better, although he wasn't that good at the usage of weapons, and he had more proficiency in using Darkness which made up his materialized body.

Nonetheless, he still could transform into a giant dragon, so Chaos wanted him to utilize this trait to grow more powerful.

Slashing attacks, biting attacks, tail attacks, body slams, anything would do, Chaos made Erebus train this a lot, and didn't let him spam Dark Spears as much anymore through it.

Chaos, before, might had not even cared about teaching someone, but now he had a deeper interests on his son's strength and development. He already considered him his son, despite not having been conceived by normal means, Erebus was still born from Chaos Miasma, and it seems to have even inherited part of his residual soul energy, which let him shape into a dragon and resemble Chaos but smaller.

After all, Chaos miasma came out of his soul too, so it was as if Erebus was born from his very soul… And each time he evolved someone using his miasma, it was also as if they became his family by absorbing his soul into them. Perhaps this was also a reason why he had begun to feel so close with them, although maybe, it could also be because he was developing his feelings and appreciated his companions and family more.

He had also been trying to teach Erebus some magic, amongst other things…

Erebus had learned a lot from his father, although his progress is not as insane because he cannot learn skills from anything he eats, he has learned a few apprentice jobs from bracelets and accessories he has wore for some time. He was beginning to grow proficient in Crafting, Alchemy, and Cooking because he wanted to use his powers as a Dungeon to create more detailed treasures.

The ability of creating items was inherent to his own imagination and mana, and it was something that not even Chaos had. Perhaps he could get it if he were to eat him… But Chaos didn't wanted to eat Erebus, and now found the idea of even imagining it as horrendous. Sometimes wondering what was wrong with his mind when he had wondered if he could eat him… Perhaps gaining more emotions and self-awareness had given him a greater feeling of common sense. And a very clear one was to, well, not eat your children.

Going back on topic, Erebus had not only gained a few Jobs from accessories, which he planned to expand as he used more of them and slowly accustomed to the skills they gave, but he had also gained two Jobs independently and by himself.

Jobs were blessings, in a way, it was thought that only humans, or similar races such as elves and the like could be blessed by them, but Erebus had gotten two now, out of seemingly nowhere after he trained very hard.

Perhaps there was some kind of God of Dungeons that was rewarding him for his efforts? No one had a clue, it merely happened. Chaos wondered if he could get Jobs naturally, but perhaps he had already qualified for many of them, but got them ahead of time before the blessing could reach him…

His Jobs were nothing but unconventional as well, he had gained [Job-Dungeon Core] and [Job-Living Dungeon], strange Jobs that no other normal person would ever get.

They granted him with a greater capacity to be like a dungeon, and he gained three Skills out of them, Dungeon Body, Loot Drop Creation, and Summon Monster.

Dungeon Body was one of the most particular ones, it allowed Erebus to convert his own interior body into a dungeon, a dungeon maze-like structure, his own internal space which resembled an enormous maze of various floors which he could fill up with monsters.

He was able to let people enter by creating a portal made of darkness, and it was a convenient way to store things inside, although Chaos already had his Inventory Skill, he wasn't able to store living beings on it.

Loot Drop Creation helped Erebus do what advanced Dungeons can do, which is creating loot inside of his Dungeon Body whenever a monster is defeated… But this can also be extended to the outside world, by using large quantities of mana, he can put others into this rule, and killing wild monsters in the outside would make them drop items as well, but they always depended in the rank of power of a living being, so it couldn't be abused as much to become instantly invincible.

And the last Skill was Summon Monster! By spending immense quantities of Mana and perhaps other items as catalysts, Erebus was able to summon monsters. However, unlike the gacha-like artifact that Chaos had, these monsters could be selected based in a list of monsters which slowly opened and unlocked more monsters. Summoning tired Erebus, so he couldn't abuse it as much as Chaos, but through this, he was slowly filling his Dungeon Body.

"Am I strong, papa?"

"You've grown strong."

Chaos petted Erebus, he was a good child.
