Miss Witch's Devotion Has Gone… Twisted-Chapter 255: The Spread of the Epidemic

"So why can I use blood magic?"

Some of the player's traits are the same as witches, such as both being able to use magic while bypassing the Orthodox Gods, but witches cannot use blood magic, yet Loren can.

He has already had others try; without the Vampire Fang, it is impossible to use blood magic.

"Could it be because of the World Card?"

Loren looked at the Tarot cards in his hand, deep in thought. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

He had also witnessed the death of a vampire, so the World Card recorded the vampire, but the World Card is used actively. He hadn't used the World Card when employing blood magic.

To verify this, Loren specifically switched the World Card's ability, switching it to the human effect, but he could still use blood magic.

"Do I actually have vampire bloodline?"

Loren looked at his red eyes in the mirror. Right after transmigrating, some people did mistake him for a half-vampire, but not anymore, because Loren is more famous than vampires.

Perhaps some don't know vampires exist, but they definitely know Loren.

"It shouldn't be that cheap, right? I'm not afraid of the sun either."

Loren truly looks down on vampire lineage. Even if they made him a Prince, it wouldn't matter; having such an obvious weakness is far too fatal.

He is confident he can stand at the pinnacle of the world without relying on any bloodline.

During this time, Loren also deciphered the light magic sent by Ofemia. Light magic belongs to the sequence of the God of Light and Fire. Its control over its believers is the most severe, and the same goes for its magic. Even with Ofemia's energy, she could only obtain a few first-tier spells at most. For Loren, this was already enough.

Loren extended a finger, and a burst of intense light instantly erupted from his fingertip, especially glaring in the night. This was a first-tier spell, Flash.

This spell doesn't even have offensive power; it can only briefly blind enemies.

Light magic is not natural light; most of it is visible light, but it's not completely devoid of ultraviolet light either. It's just that the content is too low, having a negligible restraining effect on vampires.

So, following the principle of the Ultraviolet Lamp, Loren forcibly extracted some ultraviolet light from the Flash spell. The effect was still poor.

But Loren directly used an item to bring over the light spectrum from the magic, continuously adjusting the output method to make the purple in the spectrum more and more prominent.

Loren grasped this feeling, and in the end, even the purple became less and less.

"Success."

Loren wiped the sweat from his forehead. The ultraviolet light in light magic is too scarce. Extracting this bit consumes dozens of times more than normal spellcasting.

However, for Loren, this cost of over a hundred points is practically negligible, but the restraining effect on vampires is still very real.

To verify the effect, Loren even had Gwen directly transform into a street-trying murderous maniac, found an evil vampire to test it on. Although not as effective as the sun, it turned him into rotten flesh within seconds.

Over three days, Loren deciphered light magic and also developed a magic that restrains vampires. Loren wasn't very satisfied with this efficiency, but such an achievement probably couldn't be replicated even if the world's top mages were gathered together and researched for years.

Perhaps only the Dawn Princess would have had a chance to develop it, but the Dawn Princess has been dead for a long time.

...

During this period, Loren and the others have been staying at home. Anna and the others are already used to staying in; even if they never go out, they don't think it's a big deal. Only Laila, accustomed to adventure, finds it a bit boring.

"Loren, when can we go out?"

Laila sat in the living room, one foot on the sofa, tossing small paper balls one by one into the bedroom trash can, looking utterly bored.

"It should be soon."

Loren flipped through the newspaper. The largest section on the newspaper was about Cecelia's information. She announced she wouldn't attend any events recently because Loren had written to her about recent events, advising her not to go out, and even sent her several bottles of Antidote Amulets.

And Cecelia was very obedient; she really hasn't come out since.

After all, Cecelia has always been alone, with no agent or company. She usually comes and goes as she pleases, entirely based on her own mood. No one besides Loren can interfere with her choices. If she says she won't go out, she won't go out.

Loren skipped over the gossip used to numb people and the vampires' undisguised lies in the newspaper, looking towards the sections reporting real-time events.

Only a small part mentioned the sudden appearance of an infectious disease recently, reminding everyone to pay attention to safety.

But the reality is far from as relaxed as the newspaper says. Basically, most people are infected with this inexplicable plague. This infectious disease raised the execution threshold for the homeless. The few surviving homeless people have made a fortune these past few days, and many more corpses have appeared in that pit where bodies are dumped.

However, this disease isn't that serious either. Normal people with jobs at most just work a bit more difficultly, but they can still tough it out. They also don't have money for the hospital; they have to endure even if they can't hold on. Taking two days off could lead to their position being replaced, turning them into homeless people in a short time.

The Uridia Kingdom doesn't have any guilds that do practical work. Vampires don't allow such things that affect their interests to appear.

But the effect of this virus is far from as strong as Loren imagined. Based on the strength of those Plague Believers, after so many days, Uridia should have been littered with corpses long ago, especially since this virus was specifically made for the people of Uridia.

The previous Wheat Ear Country is an example. They were destroyed in less than two days. The plague broke out in one day, crippling their combat power, then they were massacred by the Canaan Kingdom's army.

So Loren thinks Aisaco must have other actions. Perhaps even creating the virus isn't his real plan. Every so often, Gwen goes to take a look at the body dumping site, converting the newly added corpses into undead.

However, the corpses in the pit decompose very quickly. This is also understandable. These corpses already carry many viruses, piled together, making them a perfect breeding ground for bacteria.

Loren still chooses to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, placing bets on both sides, collecting money from both, and running away if something happens.

As time passes, the spread of the plague becomes more and more severe, affecting the lives of more people. It is at this time that a miraculous doctor appears among the people, able to cure this new disease within minutes.

Soon, his name begins to spread throughout the country. More and more people come to him for treatment, even including some human nobles.

For this reason, Loren also investigated him. On the surface, he is just an ordinary person, living in an utterly ordinary house.

But Loren found Ultraviolet Lamps and silver bullets in his house. His identity is self-evident.
