Possessing Nothing

< Hematoma-5 >

It was December.

During December, Lee Sung-min was instructed by the miners about the Hematopoiesis. In fact, it was not only a map of the hemocytoplasty, but also a fundamental reason for them to become proficient in new work, repeating their daily struggles.

“You...”

Gwangcheon Ma chose what to say while looking at Lee Sung-min who was sitting down and resting. A miner hesitates for a moment, sighing deeply.

“You're not used to writing new things. ”

“Just spit it out. Stupid.”

Sung-min grumbled and replied. The hemocytoplasty with the depths of the miners was synesthesia that was comparable to the nine-thousandth pole. Learning it was not easy.

Fortunately, the achievement of the hemocyclopheresis was rapid due to the high position that Lee Sung-min reached as an unmanned person. But the problem was elsewhere. Even though the achievements of the shameless rise quickly, Lee could not melt it properly through practice.

“I wish I wasn't a spear! ”

The miner sighs. He fights without using his weapon, but he's not a rational man. The whole inner aerial coordination uses the autonomous ball, the spear method uses the nine-thousandth diagonal, and the orthodox method uses the immortal soul. The three are fully skilled through the performance of the spirit world. In fact, Lee Sung-min had extensive experience with the three shamans. So, he already knew how to use shamanism in harmony, and even if he did not follow the flesh, he could choose a method through the temporary response.

But the hemocytoplasty is different. A mason, a mason, is a mason that only deals in strength. The hemocytoplasty does not collide with the sacral foramen. It does not collide with the Nine Heavenly Palace or the Immortal Spirit. If you are proficient, you can also add the strength of the hemolytic mackerel to the herbs of the Nine Heavenly Palace.

But the talent of Lee Sung-min doesn't make it easy. Easy for you to say, two, three, four balls at the same time. If you add auxiliary magic to it, what needs to be unfolded at the same time increases exponentially. And not only does fighting really work as expected, but it really takes effort to give blood poop in order to act responsively, consciously, and unconsciously.

“You're not stupid. ”

The miner mumbles with a fat face. He folded his arms and stared at Lee Sung-min.

“Just getting used to being slower than everyone else. ”

“Does that mean it's stupid? ”

“No, that's not it. If you haven't learned anything, you won't have as much trouble as you do now. But you've already mastered the art of craftsmanship. We have transcendence in sight through the existing bureaucrats, plus a new bureaucracy. My hands and feet just don't fit together. ”

There's nothing new about it. Lee Sung-min knew his problems well. At the very least, Lee Sung-min was able to adapt to the hemocyclopheresis because of the existence of the miners and the haze that led him intensively. If Jeongju coached Lee Sung-min's visible technique, Heo gave advice from the inside.

[It would be more convenient to use force.]

‘It makes me uncomfortable. ’

If you use force, you are more likely to become a monster, and if you become a monster, you will not become a human. In fact, that's what Lee Sung-min was afraid of. How you will change when you become a monster. Being non-human means giving up humanity and not being able to think and act like a human being.

Lee Sung-min remembers the sword that became a vampire. He drank blood even though he was human. It is said that there is a difference between a vampire and a monster, but Lee Sung-min doesn't know what an intact monster looks like. When I turned into a monster after using my strength, believing in what I was saying coldly.

What would "I" look like at that time? What do you think? What happens to the previous "I" if it changes? Is there still a "I" who remembers Baek Sogo, and W. Ho-yeon?

Heju also did not strongly urge him because he felt what he felt. This choice is mine. A choice to pursue. What you gain from your choices, what you lose.

“Severely.”

Rubia grumbles and looks at Lee Sung-min and the miners. It was good to rest in a boring homeless life and a journey where there was no rest, but it was also a day or two. I was already staying at the inn for more than a month, so I was anxious.

‘When will the master be back? ’

Rubia sips warm milk thinking about it. When I first fell asleep in the forest, I thought I'd soon meet Envirus, the owner of Seongmin. However, it has already been a year since then, and there is no sign of Envirus coming.

‘Was it really abandoned...? No, it can't be. It's just not the right time. ’

Along with that concern, Rubia feels a strange feeling. It's because the journey with Lee Sung-min was quite pleasant. Collisions with events you hadn't seen before with Envirus excite Rubia.

‘Looks like something's going to happen again. ’

Rubia feels a little excitement and thinks that way.

But by the end of December, what Rubia had expected had not happened.

But Travia was not at peace. There was something going on underneath and above the surface of the city.

The Black Wizards' Party continues. We didn't know what they were after, but there was always a man at the center of the party. The masked man did not say much, but there were always many people around him.

“A greedy man. ”

Today's party was special. Among the many black wizards gathered in Travia, only a select few attended the party. It's not just that it's special. Today's party was special because of the Vampire Queen's participation.

Xeniella sits on a spacious couch on the second floor, where the hall is visible. Around Xeniella are the vampires who came from her. Kim Jong-hyun, standing in front of the door, lifted his hand and took off the mask covering half his face.

“Greed. I don't know what you're talking about. ”

“You've got some nerve. ”

She bursts into laughter. Kim Jong-hyun saw a man sitting right next to Jenniella. The man with the vivid red eyes was in this room, exhibiting the darkest existence, except for Jennifer. The man was drinking a poisonous drink laced with blood without rest.

At one time, the man was called the Bleeding Heaven. This is the story of an enemy that would have been human. The left arm, which was cut off in the fight with the milkman, is now intact.

“I've seen many Black Wizards, but no man is as special as you. ”

Xeniella mutters.

“You are both a Dark Wizard and not subject to the Demon King. It's not common for a Demon King to vanish, but sometimes... In that case, the Black Wizard doomed to the same fate as the Demon King. ”

“Multiple coincidences. ”

Kim Jong-hyun smiled and replied. Originally, Kim Jong-hyun signed with the Demon King Calaira to become a Black Wizard, and Calaira had to vanish along with him. However, when Jonghyun Kim was summoned to Eria, he was able to avoid the fate of the extinction, such as Kaladra.

“You're a mutant. ”

Xeniella mutters. She's becoming both human and non-human. It was enough to be a variant.

“So what do you want? This is how I wanted to meet, so there must be something I want. ”

“Put me in the Predator. ”

Kim Jong-hyun smiled and said. It sounded more like a one-sided notification than a request. That attitude of Kim Jong-hyun made Geniella laugh.

“Are you trying to commit to an extraterrestrial group, not Richie? ”

“It doesn't have to be Rich. Do you feel inadequate for me? ”

“Ah-ha-ha!”

She shakes her head with a big smile.

“I'm not talking about rejection. If he wanted to refuse, he wouldn't even talk to me. You want to be in the Predator? Fine. I'll take you on as part of Predator. But... what do you want to do? ”

Xeniella's eyes narrow with a joyful smile. She gave a sharp look as if she could see inside Kim Jong-hyun.

“What do you think Predator is? ”

“I think it's a group of monsters that became human and became inhuman. ”

“Yes. We are monsters who have become inhuman. Monsters that banish Humans and devour Humans. If you want to enter the Predator, you must become a monster. ”

“You want me to eat human? ”

“I don't necessarily mean that. How will you prove your monstrosity? ”

It was kind of like a test. Kim Jong-hyun had a hunch that his fate would be decided based on what he said here. Xeniella is a monster that is hard to find in this vast world. For a long time, the Vampire Queen had a mysterious power and terrible vitality. Even though Kim Jong-hyun was a variant who dealt with the Demon King's power, there was not much to compare him with.

“... Are you satisfied with your drink? ”

Kim Jong-hyun opened his mouth.

“Innocent virgin blood, babies, pregnant women... I am a vampire, but I have prepared many things to suit the taste of vampires. ”

“Hahaha! You think this kind of equation proves monstrous? ”

“No way.”

Kim Jong-hyun said so, looking down. I can see the Black Wizards and Witches enjoying the party. It was beautiful virgins and young people who were overwhelmed by their minds who were watching for them. They are slaves who were brokered and purchased through Erebri.

“They're all sacrifices to you. ”

“That's insignificant.”

She shakes her head with a smile on her face.

“Such sacrifices can be accepted at any time I wish. But... Hehe! I'll make it up to you. There are many drawbacks and not enough to prove your monstrosity, but it seems to prove your madness. ”

She raises her hand, saying so. As the space divides, you pull out the necklace with the symbol of the inverted black oman.

“A black star that proves he's a member of Predator. I'll give it to you. ”

Kim Jong-hyun opened his hands and received a black star. The five inverted stars were symbols of devil worship and also symbols of the five monsters standing at the top of Predator. King of Lycanslope, including Vampire Queen Genniela, King of the Dead Knights, King of the Reaches, King of Monsters. Kim Jong-hyun, the Black Mage, will be under the care of the King of Rich.

“Then let's enjoy the equation. ”

She slowly rises to her feet. Then the other vampires who were sitting next to her rose up together. Black wizards, witches, and acolytes enjoying the party had no idea about the massacres and meals that were about to take place.

[My queen.]

In Xeniella's head, she goes down alone, and someone from her family sends her voice.

[A beautiful human queen is leaving Trabia.]

“Aha.”

The contents of the report have always changed. She narrows her eyes and chuckles. Xeniella glances at the white wire that was coming down with her.

‘You go to Prescan right now and tell him to shut up, not to play tricks. And if you disobey me, you will not go through Arbes, but you will eliminate him immediately. ’

Arbes is the king of the Black Star with Xeniella. Geniella, the original vampire queen, could not be involved in the extinction of Prescan, but she could be involved in the extinction of Prescan for as long as she didn't want to notice Arbes. In fact, even if Xeniella destroys Prescan, Arbes won't care.

“The boy who defeated you is leaving Travia. ”

Xeniella points to the white wire. Then the white shoulder shook.

“Remember, don't kill. If you don't kill me, I won't care what you do. ”

“… Yes, my queen. ”

White Wireless replied, lifeless in the red eye. If he were human, he wouldn't have listened to her. But now, wireless was not human. That's why white-collar hasn't moved in the last two months since I became a vampire. It was because of Jennifer's orders.

White Wireless didn't even feel dissatisfied with Jennifer's order not to kill her. All the feelings I had for her were completely castrated by being reborn as a vampire. Nevertheless, there remained the murder and hatred of Lee Sung-min. White Wireless leans over his head and turns around.

“Despair. ”

Xeniella mutters in a joyful voice.

“Just like you pushed him away, he should push you away. ”

She bursts into laughter, thinking of Lee Sung-min.
