Vampire Overlord System in the Apocalypse

-----

Noah offered his allies some cold drinks, as he finally sat down cross-legged on his bed, right in front of Iris, making her even more nervous.

Iris swallowed saliva as her thighs pressed against each other rather tightly, everyone else was watching her but she seemed to imagine that she was alone with Noah or something.

"Iris is really… in love with Noah…" thought Timassa, realizing her obvious facial expressions.

"She's not subtle at all…" thought Arthur.

"If Iris and Noah get together, would she be our mistress?" thought Jon.

Noah simply decided to ignore Iris's weirdness as he took out the Cores.

"43 Cores… I will distribute them based on your current strengths, but don't expect any generosity of my part, as I hunted most of them myself," said Noah.

Everyone nodded in affirmation, the only one that hunted Cores the most was Iris, then came Timassa, Jon, and Arthur.

In Noah's rules where the ones that hunt the most get the most, Arthur should barely get one or two.

Noah then decided to distribute the Cores around, keeping 23 for himself, while the other twenty were distributed between the four others evenly, although over ten should have belonged to Iris, she told Noah that she wanted to share them with her new allies and because Noah did not mind, he distributed these 20 evenly, giving five to each one.

Of course, just Five Cores was not really that much, to get to cross the E-Rank gap they would need way more, but it was better than absolutely nothing.

"Thanks, Master," said Timassa.

"Thanks a lot," said Arthur gently.

"Hm, thanks…" said Jon.

"With this, I might be able to cross 30 points in some attribute now!" said Iris with a bit of excitement.

"Now that we got that out of the way, let's discuss our plans for the future," said Noah, as his eyes gleamed with crimson light.

"Our future?" wondered Arthur.

"Indeed, our future, Arthur. And you are a crucial part of most of my plans, so I am rather glad that I have managed to get you into my side," said Noah.

"M-Me?" asked Arthur with a bit of embarrassment.

"Yes. You have money, right? That's what we lack now. We could make some bucks by selling Cores, but we are better using them on ourselves for now, so I always had the dilemma of money. But with you here, that shouldn't be a problem right?" asked Noah.

"I… Well, perhaps. But Noah, you have to know that my family is not the richest, we have a particular high capital that my father uses to slowly earn more through investing in his shops, but we are not near as rich as the top families of Sector D… We cannot simply buy any Ability Core or Cores you wish for immediately. After all, if that were the case, I wouldn't be so weak…" said Arthur.

"You have money to buy a manor, the most basic and cheapest of items for Hunters, and food, right?" asked Noah.

"Eh? Yes… In fact, this armor I am wearing alongside my small staff is C-Rank Equipment from the item shops that my father manages," said Arthur.

"That's more than enough then. Can you get me a Spatial Storage Ring?" asked Noah.

"Ah! Yes, I have a spare one in my house, I can bring it tomorrow," said Arthur.

"Good. We also are just starting our creed, but I aim to create our own Guild to act independently from the government… Although that might come later on, I want to set things for that moment starting now…" said Noah.

"A manor as a headquarters then? We could use the abandoned Manor that is within my family's territory… It used to belong to my grandfather before he passed out, I can tell my servants to clean it for us," said Arthur.

"Excellent. We also need better equipment, all of us are just in our day-to-day clothes, if it wasn't for the borrowed items from the school, we would be completely naked in dungeons. As we enter more difficult ones, it will become harder for us to get through those Monsters," said Noah.

"Equipment… I believe I could ask my father and his employees to make custom equipment sets for all of us… But I would need all of you to come to my manor for all of that… Ah! We could do that on the weekend, which is in two more days… After the small expedition to the wastelands," said Arthur.

"Custom equipment? That sounds feasible," said Noah.

"Custom equipment for me? I wonder what weapon could suit us?" wondered Iris.

"Hm, Noah-sama and Iris wield claws as your main weapon, but perhaps gauntlets that could cover your claws to give extra power into them could work," said Arthur.

"That sounds good. Now that we got the technical parts out of the way, I will let you know our next plans…" said Noah.

"What could it be?" wondered Timassa.

"To get stronger quickly," said Noah, his crimson eyes gleaming with conviction.

"But… Noah, you're pretty strong already…" said Arthur.

"Not enough," said Noah.

"How much?" wondered Timassa.

"For all of us to reach E-Rank," said Noah.

"E-Rank? Well, it should be possible…" said Arthur.

"In two weeks starting tomorrow," said Noah.

"Only two weeks?!" asked Arthur.

"To reach E-Rank in only two weeks for all of us… That would mean that we would have to spend the majority of our day at a dungeon, but we have school…" said Timassa.

"We will attend school as usual, but we will enter the school's dungeons if necessary… Or we can always escape School and enter another dungeon outside, I am sure that Arthur can get ourselves into one that might be within his family's possessions," said Noah.

"I-I… well yeah," said Arthur.

"And it's not like we are restricted to the military school, we are free to go out to the city when classes are over, as long as we get a stupid pass before that," said Noah.

"Sounds good… I want to grow stronger so I can protect you, Noah-sama…" said Iris.

"Protect me?" asked Noah.

"A-Ah! I-I mean, to be useful to you!" said Iris.

Noah averted his gaze from the embarrassed Iris as he put it back to Arthur, Timassa, and Jon.

"For now, all of you should go to your respective rooms… And Arthur you can go back to your house to get your legs back," said Arthur.

"Yes," said Arthur.

"Very well, Noah-sama," said Timassa.

"Okay," said Jon.

"You're dismissed," said Noah, as his party slowly left his room.

Noah sighed as he glanced at the ceiling.

At his side, there was an embarrassed and cute girl.

"What are you doing here? I told you to go back to your room," said Noah.

"I-I thought I could stay here a tiny bit more… A-After all, I am your first… converted Dhampir, Noah-sama…" said Iris with a shy smile.

Noah glanced at Iris with an expressionless face.

"You shouldn't disobey my orders," said Noah, gently smacking Iris's head.

Smack!

"Awuh!" cried Iris, as she rubbed her head, although it surprised her more than hurting her.

"Noah-sama… Can I stay here with you?" asked Iris.

"Hm? Why?" asked Noah while drinking green tea.

"It gets cold at night…" said Iris as she blushed more intensively, trying to approach Noah.

"Gahaha! She's really trying to get with you," laughed the Blood Progenitor.

"I couldn't be less interested in anything other than growing stronger and breaking the skull of those I despise, Iris, so get out," said Noah.

"A-Ah! Okay, okay! S-Sorryyyyy…!" cried Iris, as Noah kicked her out of his room.

"What a perverted woman…" sighed Noah.

"But isn't that good? Maybe you could get some descendants out of her!" said the Blood Progenitor.

"That's for the far future, so no thank you. It is not like I will reject her though, someone as loyal as her must be kept at my side. But I do not believe that it is the right time to get to do such things at night, while there are many threats ahead of my path," said Noah.

"You may talk it out rather eloquently, but I believe you're being shy," laughed the Blood Progenitor.

"Do you want me to tell my Eldritch Horror inside of my soul to eat you completely now?" asked Noah.

"…"

The Blood Progenitor fell silent.
