Blood Assimilation-Chapter 243

243 A Weakling

The dumbfounded black-haired girl stared in complete shock with a gawking expression on her pretty face.

After she witnessed the completely bizarre scene of that vampire man, who was feared by both her and her companions for his ridiculous and powerful regenerative ability, being dominated in combat, and even losing terribly with no possibility or chance of salvation, that left her mouth agape with her jaw dropped uncharacteristically from just the sight of this inconceivable outcome in front of her.

The vampire couldn’t even manage to use his proud regenerative ability before helplessly succumbing to death at the hand of the young man in front of her.

On the other hand, both she and her team members had suffered considerably under the onslaught of this vampire. Yet it was killed very quickly by this young man in front of her, and brutally so.

With a dazed expression, she blankly mumbled the words, “Who is this guy? And where did he come from? Why hasn’t anyone heard of him until now?”

Normally, she wasn’t fazed by the most gruesome of things since she had seen many such cases in her line of work. However, this scene of a human killing a vampire in such an unorthodox way was completely unheard-of.

No, it was unprecedented for a human to even have the skill, ability, spell, or whatever he used to kill a vampire.

No one would even believe her if she were to tell them what she had witnessed here. That’s just how unreal the current situation was to her.

That was why she was shocked to the core, and even her cold and frozen expression disappeared, replaced by a baffled expression shortly after.

.....

She pondered as she replayed what happened just now for a while. However, she still couldn’t understand how the young man was able to achieve such a feat despite being a human just like her.

Meanwhile, Randy had completely forgotten that someone was watching him as he brutally sucked the blood out of the black-cloaked vampire man.

Soon after dropping the dried-up corpse of the black-cloaked vampire man, he looked at the black-haired girl for a moment, who had a gawking look on her pretty face before turning his gaze away to focus on healing her team members.

He did not care whether she was there or not, as he didn’t need to hide his ability. He couldn’t care less at this point since someone has already been observing him for a while now.

Furthermore, if they ask him later, he could just lie and say that it was a secret spell or something from his family. After all, there are bound to be people with unique spells or techniques just like him, who do not want to disclose their heritage to others.

With that in mind, he dismissed the black-haired girl’s fixed gaze on him and continued to heal the green-clothed young woman. She has already recovered a bit from his last treatment session. Therefore, he didn’t need to spend too much time on her before he would proceed to treat the others.

Despite there being no benefit to saving these people since many of them were strangers, and at most, acquaintances, he still wanted to heal them.

Furthermore, he would use them this time to practice the usage of divine points for the future.

If possible, he wanted to try healing his clone using the divine points’ healing effects since he did not have a healing skill or spell at the moment.

In the meantime, he read the lines of text that blinked in his field of vision at this moment.

[[You have completely dominated and killed an opponent who had the same level of combat power as you do. Although they may have lost terribly, enough to appear as though they were a weakling, that is not so. In any battle, the ultimate victor wasn’t determined just by their power level, skill mastery, or even combat strength, but by their overall prowess]]. ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

[[For this reason, you need to make a habit of employing effective tactics to destroy your opponents before they can use their abilities. Otherwise, you might lose to an entity considered a ‘weakling’ by you. Even though this opponent was not a weakling, he lost to your unique technique. Therefore, the penalty for defeating a weakling does not apply in this case, and you will fully harvest all of the divine points in his soul]].

[[You have harvested 3,200 divine points from your opponent’s soul]]

As he finished reading through this, Randy frowned slightly and muttered under his breath: “So that vampire was only as strong as that Holy Knight Captain I killed before? No, that shouldn’t be the case. There should be another reason for this.”

He recalled that this was the number of divine points he received when he preemptively killed the Holy Knight Captain at that time. However, at that time, he didn’t get to witness the Holy Knight Captain’s full combat prowess before he succumbed to death from his relentless attacks.

Moreover, he remembered that he failed in his preemptive attack against the Holy Knight Captain. This surprised him then but not anymore, as the Holy Knight Captain’s strength was comparable to the vampire he just killed only in power and not in physical strength.

‘A weakling, huh?’

Recalling the system’s words and the seemingly long but informative explanation, caused Randy to ponder for a while.

‘Is the system saying that there are weak people out there who can defeat strong opponents with their unique abilities...” Randy suddenly mumbled to himself in conclusion. f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦

Afterward, he shook his head and ignored the meaning behind the system’s words for now, as he focused on healing the green-clothed young man; her complexion was recovering as he poured more divine points into her body.

A few moments later, he decided to move on to treat the remaining members when the green-clothed young woman’s complexion completely recovered.

Even so, she was still unconscious. Most likely because of the loss of blood or her fatigue, but Randy didn’t care too much. He had done everything he could to prevent her death at the very least.

A while later, he had completely healed the remaining two members, as they regained the color of their skin, no longer pale. And just like the green-clothed young woman, they were still unconscious despite seeming fully recovered physically.

...

Meanwhile, at the location where Randy had fought the two demons a while ago, a storm was brewing.

At this very moment, there happened to be an unexpected face-off between two opposing forces, and just by standing there, the surrounding mana seemed to be spiraling out of control within the vicinity where they stood, almost as though a battle would break out at any given moment.
