Vampire System- The Last Mystic Swordsman
Chapter 104 Blackfire Skill: Zone!

[Main Mission: Maximo's Quest!]

[Mission Completed!]

[You have been rewarded with 1000 Skill Points, 20 Constitution Points, and 20,000 Dragon Horn Credits!]

…

[The 3 Bowls Merchant Trade Company returned safely to the Dragon Horn Village with more than 50% of their members and goods.]

[You completed the hidden mission requirement.]

[You have gained bonus rewards of 500 Skill Points and 50 Constitution Points!]

In the end, Rex gained more from this mission than he ever expected.

Due to the dangers that could threaten even Super Mystic Warriors that were at the heart of the Great Forest of Elias, Rex decided to travel only through the periphery of the Great Forest and this decision now saved him.

After traveling a great distance from the Mist Village through the forest, Rex already left that region entirely and was now in a new region.

In this new region, if he decided to come out of the forest, he would meet villages like the Dragon Horn Village and others that were not affiliated with any of the Great or Small Shelters that humans sought refuge on.

This was the reason why he was able to escort the 3 Bowls Merchant Trade Company safely out of the Great Forest in less than a day.

After the remaining 7 Lions and Lionesses of the Lion Pride escaped, Rex sprinted away with the merchants as they worked hard to hide their traces.

This was the only reason why the powerful Alpha Lion could not track them as all traces were already erased, the Alpha could only roar to vent his anger.

After arriving in the Dragon Horn Village, Rex discovered that the merchant, Maximo was like a dignitary here as he received the best welcome.

After the ambush from the Dark Mist Jaguars, and the subsequent great battle against the Lion Pride, Rex was already exhausted completely.

As Maximo's savior, Rex was taken to the best hospital in the village. By now, he already noticed that this village was far more developed than the Mist Village which he visited some time ago.

He could even bet that the village was more advanced in some areas than Bowling Town where he grew up, they had class compared to other villages.

As soon as Rex was taken to the hospital before he was attended to by the doctors, he made a lame excuse that enabled him to sneak out and grab some blood bags to replenish his blood reserves.

After doing this, he felt revitalized as the doctors finally attended to him. In no time, he slept and he went at it for 12 straight hours.

When Rex woke up, it was already the next day and the first thing that greeted him was the notification of having completed his recent system mission.

With the gains from this mission, a lot of things became more convenient for Rex and he did not hesitate to spend the currencies that he just earned.

After accessing his system, Rex was placed in a dilemma on which of the Blackfire skills he should access but he soon narrowed down on the Zone skill.

He theorized that this skill was the best to easily amplify his overall strength in the immediate term compared to the others.

----

[800 Skill Points have been deducted!]

[You have learned Blackfire skill: Zone!]

[You have learned the skill, but practice with it to master it.]

…

[Skill Points: 405.]

-----

Once the skill points were deducted, Rex felt the familiar feeling of knowledge being forced into his brain as he quickly understood everything that he needed to know about the Zone skill.

Rex was astonished since he had been trying his best to understand the deeper secrets of this skill the conventional way without much success.

"Having a system really is an OP advantage".

With 405 Skill Points remaining, Rex could not do much on this front anymore which was why he deviated to his constitution points and their use.

The constitution points had only 1 use and that was to upgrade his constitution. The 1st limit to upgrade his constitution was 100 Constitution Points, and after this mission, Rex finally had the required number of points.

As this was his first time about to upgrade his Vampire constitution, Rex was hyped as he imagined the benefits that would follow this upgrade.

"System, upgrade my constitution".

[Affirmative!]

Well, Rex soon learned that upgrading his constitution was not as stress-free as learning a new skill. He groaned as his body felt like it was being broken into pieces the next moment, he felt like a giant was giving him a body massage.

"Ugh!"

Crack! Crack!

Rex heard his bones crackling as the pain increased. This continued for approximately 5 minutes as he squirmed in the bed before it finally stopped.

------

[Congratulations! Your Special Constitution has been Upgraded!]

[Your Vampire Constitution has been upgraded to become the Vampire Knight Constitution- Locked!]

[Vampire Knight Constitution bonuses: +2000 Health points, +200 Vitality!]

[To unlock your new Vampire Knight constitution bonuses, upgrade your Blood Rank and become a Vampire Knight!]

[Requirements to upgrade Blood Rank: Drink 2 rare human bloodlines!]

---------

As the pain stopped and as Rex finally got to see the benefits of upgrading his constitution, he smiled. Even though he could not unlock the new bonuses immediately, he was still satisfied by this new way to grow his powers.

Rex could see his advantages over conventional mystic warriors every day.

Apart from the normal mystic energy growth, his bloodline and his system provided so much more sophisticated ways of growth for him that it was inevitable that he would be OP compared to others of his rank.

Rex wondered if others enjoyed similar advantages that he enjoyed.

[You have activated Blackfire skill: Zone!]

Instantly after Rex activated this ability, he felt like he fell under the embrace of the mother goddess of the earth as he felt his soul and mind calming down.

Every distraction left his mind as he became extremely concentrated. In this state, he became capable of taking note of every tiny detail as he clearly heard the conversations of the hospital nurses who were far away from his room.

Apart from his even more heightened senses in this state and his concentration, Rex was more fascinated by his amplified state.

His overall strength was amplified by 10%, but not only that as even his overall mental and physical state also enjoyed this amplification.

Rex enjoyed this state as he maintained the skill with his mystic energy to remain active as he stood up from the hospital bed and went outside.

On going outside, he heard the conversations of the nurses and patients more clearly. And the astonishing fact about this skill was that he could easily decide to mute some voices while amplifying others, it was magical.

As Rex listened to random conversations, this was where he heard the name of the merchant that he just saved.

"I heard that Maximo almost committed suicide".

"It is inevitable, losing his only son to the slave traders will make anyone feel like giving up on the world".

"I feel like pitying him but I can't when I think of how many children were lost in this raid by the Desert Cowboy Gang".
