Vampire Overlord System in the Apocalypse

-----

After hearing of Albert's power to 'brainwash other people', Noah could not help but desire Albert on his party over anything else.

He began to ponder that perhaps making him a Vampire could give him a greater potential than a Blood Servant, and had decided to ask Albert if he wanted to see him alive or dead.

His answer came in some insults and other things, and then finally guessing that Noah might be hiding abilities.

But Noah, who decided to boldly show off his power, generated a blade of blood and threw it towards Albert in a whim.

Flash!

"W-What?!"

Albert was startled as he saw the blade made of blood reach him!

"Tch! Shadow Claw!" roared Albert, unleashing his Skill 'Shadow Claw', which unleashed a claw-shaped shadow attack using his own shadow!

CLASH!

The shadow claw hit Noah's blood blade, sending it off into the air as it shattered into pieces…

"Hah… That was… fast! What kind of Rank is he? Don't tell me he's… D-Rank!" thought Albert, as sweat began to drip from his neck!

If Noah was D-Rank, it meant that he had been hiding his powers this whole time, maintaining a low profile, and even letting himself be bullied!

Just what were the plans of Noah to do that?!

Did he intend to do the same thing as Albert?

Albert could not help but think all these things, unaware that Noah had gotten this strong in only a bit over a week ago… Unlike him, Noah's growing speed was insane, and he was already reaching heights he could only dream to all his life!

Indeed, comparing the two, both were rather similar… but Noah was, perhaps, even more, insane than him to be able to disregard all the humanity he had left, training incredibly hard, literally enslaving himself into killing powerful monsters over and over again…

Although Albert was strong, he had never thought of training in dungeons for so long, and he had gradually increased in power much like any other normal hunter!

But Noah was not like this, his growth and his mind were just in another level of complete insanity!

Albert quickly called his brainwashed allies, sending them towards Noah as he decided to do a very obvious thing…

Escape!

He was not stupid, he was not going to fight someone equally stronger than him or perhaps even stronger!

He liked to fight weaker people than him, and Albert hated to take risks!

Disregarding the lives of his pawns, he sent them off as he tried to run away!

"Where are you going, Albert? I thought we were going to be friends!" laughed Noah, as he commanded his party to go against the rest of Albert's party, using their varied attacks against them and easily decimating them due to their low Ranks compared to them.

Just a single Black Thunder from Timassa already blasted one of Albert's pawns into pieces of flesh, Jon drained the life of another, until it became a dried mummy, Arthur used corrosion wave on another until it turned into a sludge of blood and melted flesh, and Adamantine used her claws and shadows to tear apart another with ease.

Flash! Flash! Flash!

However, Albert's path was blocked by Clementina, who threw several ice spears against him!

"Tch! You bitch! Shadow Bullets!" roared Albert, desperately throwing shadow bullets at Clementina's ice spears as they blasted into pieces!

However, Clementina rushed towards him with superhuman speed, creating a rapier made of ice and pointing it towards him!

"Noah-sama said that I can kill you… So I will gladly give him your head!" roared Clementina, as Albert smiled wickedly!

"I don't know what kind of powers you got now, but you're far off my league, little rich whore!" laughed Albert, as he suddenly generated a blade of shadows, and pointed it towards Clementina's chest!

CLASH!

"Ungh…!"

Clementina vomited blood, as she saw the blade penetrate her chest…

"As easy as that… Now get off my- Eh?"

Albert noticed as Clementina did not budge, in fact, she slowly approached her hand towards him, as the icy cold winds of her Ice Queen Skill began to activate!

The blade of shadows dissipated, as Albert glanced at Clementina's enormous wound slowly regenerate until the giant gaping hole in her chest went back to normal…

"W-What?! What?! That's… what kind of…?!" cried Albert, his entire body began to tremble in fear!

"What's wrong? Wasn't this part of your plans as well?" asked Noah while grinning, as Clementina's generated ice around her, as large spears of ice emerged, firing towards Albert!

"I will not… DIE HERE!" roared Albert, as he unleashed Shadow Bullets, Shadow Claws, and Shadow Blades against Clementina's attacks, breaking them apart into explosions of ice and shadows, and impaling her body multiple times!

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!

Clementina once more vomited blood as she saw several pieces of her flesh fly away… but she was still standing, moving towards Albert, as her eyes began to turn red… glowing eerily!

"W-What… are you?!" roared Albert, as he began to step back to escape!

Clash! Clash! Clash!

However, several spears of ice blocked his path, closing his only escape route!

"You are not going anywhere… I am… giving your head to Noah-sama!!!" roared Clementina, her voice sounding like a beast about to unleash her rage!

Flash! Clementina suddenly leaped towards Albert as he noticed that her wounds were slowly regenerating already!

Just what… was she now?!

And then he noticed how strong all of Noah's subordinates were… they was all terrifyingly strong!

Clementina unleashed waves of ice towards Albert, as he grinds them away with his Shadow Claws until finally, he gained an opportunity!

Clementina approached him enough for his hand to manage to touch her forehead with his index finger!

"Gahaha! Mind-Eating Parasite!" laughed Albert, trying to brainwash Clementina!

"Nngh?! Ngah!" roared Clementina, as she felt a strange power beginning to eat her mind away!

However!

Flash!

Suddenly, a greater power, a crimson light destroyed this power like nothing!

This was because Clementina was already owned by someone else!

"Eh?! It failed?! But you are of a lower Rank than ME!" cried Albert, as he tried to kill Clementina by trying to slice her head off with his Shadow Claws!

CLASH!

Only for Clementina to evade in time, touching Albert's arm with her hand!

"Die, you shitty parasite!" roared Clementina, as the ice began to take over Albert's entire arm, covering his body, and freezing his skin, muscles, and bones!

"Y-You biiitch…! …Unngggyyyyaaaahhhh!"

The ice reached Albert's head, as he was made into an ice statue on the spot!

"I was… destined for greatness…" thought Albert, as he slowly started to die.

Albert's mind began to dull out, his senses disappeared, and the last bit of consciousness he held turned off, his brain had frozen completely…

Ice Queen had this terrifying power, as long as the target did not react in time, Clementina had the potential of completely freezing someone to death like this!

As long as they did not have body-enhancing Skills such as Albert… they were as good as dead!

Clementina sighed, as she rested on the ground…

It was over…

She exerted revenge against her party members, even if they were not truly her friends, she felt the duty to avenge them… or she would not be able to keep her pride, the only thing left on her heart.

Suddenly, Noah appeared at Clementina's side.

"Drink this," he said, pouring his own blood over Clementina, as she instinctively opened her mouth and began to drink as if it were an elixir.

Suddenly, she felt with more energy, and her wounds fully recovered now.

"This blood…" she muttered.

"It's a skill, Blood Potion. As a Dhampir, you can also drink blood to regenerate faster, if I combine Blood Potion with that ability of yours, your regeneration becomes greater, and you even gain more energy as well," said Noah.

"Thanks…" said Clementina.

"No need to thank me. I wouldn't want my new servant to die out of starvation. Now, step aside…" said Noah.

Clementina moved away as she slowly stood up, glancing as Noah touched the ice where Albert was frozen to death.

"Hm, it still fresh. Good, your powers will come in handy, Clementina…" said Noah.

"What are you going to do with him?" asked Clementina while being confused, until she suddenly recalled what Noah did with Luciliano and Verto's corpses!

"Wait… you're going to…!" she muttered.

"Yes. You guessed it right… Rise," said Noah, as a flash of crimson light emerged from his hand, covering Albert's entire frozen body!
