Build a Human Empire by Creating Clans - Build a Human Empire by Creating Clans chapter 41

The palace shook.

“earthquake?”

The fat noble muttered as he braced himself on the table.

The vibration that once shook the palace rose again, even harder.

Kugoong…

Stone dust fell from the ceiling.

As if someone was knocking down on it.

The ceiling shuddered and the palace trembled.

“What, what!”

The moment the bewildered nobleman shouted, the ceiling collapsed.

Kwakwagwagwagwang!

Bricks fall and the roar covers the ears,

Dust rises and covers the eyes,

Someone came down with the collapsing ceiling.

The only thing that can be distinguished is the shape of a person whose vision is obscured by the haze of dust.

I saw a message floating above their heads.

I put my hand on the collar of my neck.

“Edar!”

At the same time, a deafening scream erupted.

“Edar Lundlingeeen!”

Fire and wind blew and scattered dust in all directions.

Dust was driven out of the collapsed wall and vision returned.

Above the wreckage of the ceiling were ten blood relatives and an emperor.

【Lv. 90]

Emperor of the Vampire Empire.

Vlad von Holstein.

“You dare! you dare! Kill Agathon!”

Vlad let out a bloody rage-soaked cry.

this is the third time

###

Vlad von Holstein was sitting on the throne.

He rested his chin on a bored expression and lowered his gaze.

Beneath the throne, a human male prostrated himself, waiting for his answer.

Behind the man, dozens of young men and women were prostrated equally.

Vlad went through them one by one before opening his mouth.

“You are old.”

“yes?”

I inadvertently spilled the man’s words.

Vlad put his back on the throne and spoke again.

“He said he was old. The bag of blood you brought.”

“That, it can’t be…”

The man looked up in bewilderment and looked at the slaves.

No matter how you look at it, they were clearly young slaves.

I brought you there with care about your appearance, but you said you were old?

“Everyone, look again! Such a fresh human—“

Vlad raised his right hand.

“Ouch!”

The stuttering man grabbed his chest.

My heart stopped beating and was throbbing.

His expression contorted as he felt the pressure tightening his hand.

“again? What does a mere bag of blood say to me?”

“I’m sorry… cool!”

Wow, black blood flowed backwards.

Every time Vlad lightly opened and closed his right hand, the man rolled his eyes and rolled on the floor coughing up blood.

One hand gripped his chest and the other hand stretched out to Vlad asking for forgiveness, and Vlad slightly raised his lips.

“Huh!”

The mana that gripped the man’s heart disappeared.

Vlad lowered his hand and rested his chin on it again.

“Go back. And don’t let me down again.”

“Heh, heh! yes···! Baba sure! I will definitely not disappoint you!”

A man who crawls on the ground to fight because he can’t afford to stand up.

The slaves left behind looked at Vlad with fearful eyes.

Vlad liked that expression so much that he let out a laugh.

“Bring it by the cup.”

The attendant took the slaves out.

Then came a very tall man.

“Conrad, are you here?”

“Father, are you kidding me again?”

“It’s entertainment, entertainment.”

Vlad waved his hands and smiled.

It was a prank done out of boredom when he was criticized for being old.

The opponent was only a human, and a nobleman with a lower rank among humans.

It is one of the livestock that is widely available as a substitute even if it is killed by agriculture.

‘How insignificant are humans?’

I snorted.

It was pathetic, but at the same time I liked it.

Vlad was once a human, so it was nice to see human inferiority.

Because the more a human being shows his inferiority, the more he was right.

‘My choice to give up being human was right.’

If he was a human, his body would have already turned to dust.

Also, no one would remember him.

But what about him now?

‘I am the emperor of the empire. Emperor of the empire I built myself. And it’s also a part of the representative system.’

Vlad recalled the days of his youth when he used stones.

One day I was suffering from a high fever as if I was sick.

He naturally became a vampire.

‘I was very hungry after starving for several days. I tried to satisfy my hunger by eating porridge and meat, but the hunger that did not go away drove me crazy.’

I asked the father and mother who wiped the sweaty body of their child.

It was the first time in my life to eat human blood, but it was not that sweet.

Soon after, the screaming sister and brother were eaten.

The village called him a monster and tried to kill him.

‘What a monster! I was beyond human.’

Because he was still weak, it was barely possible to escape.

He hid in a dungeon to avoid the burning sun.

I spent a very long time in it.

‘It was a miserable time, but a time when I truly abandoned humans.’

At night, it preys on weak humans,

Sometimes they eat the same vampire,

By preying on a stronger alien species,

Little by little, he grew stronger.

‘After repeating that for a thousand years, another thousand years, and several times, I am sitting in this seat.’

Vlad, who was just a human, became Emperor Vlad.

The word blood relative only refers to the blood relative of Vlad, so he ate all of his own people for food, and overcame the sun in the process.

Only the elves, dwarves, and dragons who have built up a long history can stop him from absorbing even the servants of his own people.

‘Now the dragon is on the verge of extinction. Elves and dwarves, only those two will be my opponents. I will wait and wait again and wait for an opportunity.’

Just as he exterminated his own people and built an empire,

He said he would annihilate all non-vampire races and take over the world.

Vlad confidently made up his mind.

‘If it weren’t for that goddamn human.’

At that moment, a feeling of displeasure flashed through Vlad’s mind.

The cause was a person who had recently abused him.

‘Edar, Edar Lundlingen.’

A rogue boat who dared to steal the surname Lundlingen.

The first time I saw him was at an emergency call several months ago.

Raeragon, who enjoys hunting men, brings livestock to the cause?

Everyone was surprised and curiously glanced at him.

‘Raeragon said he was on the same level as us.’

Vlad didn’t believe Edar even after seeing him twice.

How could a human being have power equal to him?

I couldn’t admit it even though I ate candy twice from that human.

Every time we meet face-to-face, we admit that we are not bluffing,

After he calmed down, he overturned admitting that it was a bluff.

Acknowledging him would also shake his own foundation.

‘How dare humans… humans to the representative system.’

And an incident that shocked Vlad just as much.

Lord gave up the ninth seat to Edar.

‘Even with livestock and food, humans have never entered the representative system.’

There was a time when he was brought to the vicinity of the representative system with a blood bag.

However, he never entered the representative system as a participant.

The vast majority of people do not know the existence of the representative system even when they interact with other races, but they are participants in the representative system and represent human beings!

Vlad would rather believe that Edar was not a human, but a dragon wearing a human mask.

‘I must reveal his identity.’

It was an existence that could not be understood by common sense.

Sudret’s eldest son, a human young man barely twenty years old.

However, even Vlad, who lived an overwhelmingly long life, could not know the depth.

The attitude of knowing secrets that only Vlad knew, and knowing everything about him.

When I stood in front of Edar, I felt like I was naked.

It felt like I was standing in the sun in those old days.

‘sun.’

The existence that Vlad once feared the most.

A being that made him powerless to be beneath him.

As I recalled it, other memories that I had forgotten came to mind at the same time.

‘What the hell was that?’

Bang, the vertigo that hit the table of the representative system.

‘At first I thought it was magic interference.’

Magical interference caused by the evil dragon Tiamar.

When magic power meets waves of other magic powers, the flow becomes entangled.

Originally, the encounter between magical power and magical power was inconsequential or just bumpy.

‘Whether it mixes or stirs, either is the nature of magic.’

However, Tiamar’s magic did not mix or stir.

It made it difficult to control the magic by entangling the flow of balanced magic power, just like breaking into a group of people who were in line with each other and disrupting their ranks.

It was a phenomenon that led to dizziness in a small amount and fainting and death in a creature sensitive to magical power.

‘But it wasn’t magic interference. If that’s the case, there’s no way I wouldn’t know, and there’s no way other guys wouldn’t know even if I didn’t know.’

Wasn’t the load also there?

An old man who sealed his crazy daughter who killed his own people with his own hands.

A lizard who lost his immortality after being wounded and hesitant to kill his daughter.

There was no way that Rod was unaware of the phenomenon his daughter had caused.

‘What if another force other than magic intervened?’

At that moment, the hand that had tapped the handle of the chair twitched.

‘No… that can’t be.’

Vlad was convinced it was impossible.

The only power other than magical power is the power of the soul.

Unlike magic that flows in nature, it is a power based on the soul.

The soul was an unknown entity that Vlad, as well as elves and dwarves, did not fully grasp, and therefore did not know how much or how it worked.

If anyone knows, it’s only Rod.

‘Rod once said. The soul sometimes gives magic and other powers.’

Edar Lundlingen, is that the power that the human gave off?

But Vlad dismissed that as nonsense as well.

That mere human souls are superior to anyone else in the representative system?

‘A mere human, and a lord at that? It’s nonsense. It’s more reasonable to believe that he has become a god.’

Of course, that was also funny.

How many beings are called gods in this world?

Even Horvid, whom humans believe to be a god, is not a real god.

A human without even a believer becomes a god that cannot be done even with a believer?

‘I guess I’m out of my mind. I’m delusional like this.’

I pressed my thumb between my brows and changed my thoughts.

‘I don’t know what Rod was thinking.’

I thought of the rod that gets weaker day by day.

The existence that ruled the world has now degenerated into an old man in the back room.

The reason is that he barely managed to kill his daughter.

To think that the rod, which seemed so transcendent, would be swayed by emotion.

‘You should have killed him. Or dominate!’

From noble mtl dot com

tongue-in-cheek

But on the other hand, his feelings were understandable.

If you are a blood relative, you will surely die.

It would have been more if it had really been his child rather than a blood relative.

‘The soul of the b*tch. If I can get the piece that sealed it.’

Involuntarily, I clenched my fist.

The moment Lord extracted Tiamar’s soul.

Vlad, Laeragon, and Gotava were all there.

The light that their souls emitted was still vivid in their memories.

Vlad, who hates light, fell into ecstasy at that moment.

The emotions that had been dulled by the flow of time were alive and breathing at that moment as if they really went back to the past.

Vlad wanted to feel the emotions of that moment again.

It might be the corruption created by Tiamar’s soul.

“mmm…”

My neck trembled slightly.

Seeing this, Conrad tilted his head.

“Why is that, Father?”

“no. I thought about it for a while. So, what are you here for?”

“Agathon has sent you a present.”

Agathon?

Aren’t you the youngest in your bloodline?

A guy who whines a lot because he’s young.

Even if I told them not to get involved in the human world, they wouldn’t listen.

Thanks to that, I had a hard time keeping an eye on the representative system.

Why does a guy who goes wild in Wallochia, unaware of his father’s hardships, send a gift instead of a request?

He smiled happily and leaned forward.

“gift? Where shall I see you?”

An attendant received the wooden box from Conrad and opened it.

Inside the wooden box, a glass bottle was covered with cotton.

It is a red liquid contained in a glass bottle.

When the stopper was opened, a thick scent of blood leaked out.

“hahahahaha, that guy is really good too.”

Smelling the incense, Vlad laughed.

“There’s no way my kid just sent a present. What did you say?”

Conrad read the letter enclosed in the wooden box.

“No big deal. He said he would give you a better present next time.”

“A better gift? Is that all? Anything detailed?”

“They said they would hunt that human.”

“human? what kind of human?”

Why don’t you give a present just to let people know about human hunting?

“That person of the representative.”

“…”

Wait, Vlad stopped thinking.

who do you kill? Edar, that human?

who kills? Agathon, the kid?

“What nonsense…”

The word leaked inadvertently.

Vlad closed his mouth and looked at Conrad.

Conrad blinked and waited for him to speak.

Suddenly, Vlad realized that he hadn’t told his kin.

The fact that a human named Edar had defeated him twice.

He just said that a troublesome human being ran rampant in the representative system.

‘How can I tell him that I stopped him!’

Although the first could have been.

The second convocation is a representative system convened by Vlad himself.

How can I say that Vlad lost the argument to Edar and withdrew there?

So he hid the disadvantage, and the price has now returned.

“no! Tell them not to do that!”

woke up and shouted.

“yes? but···.”

He approached the hesitant Conrad and snatched the letter.

Conrad, who read the contents, widened his eyes. It was already too late.

The Council of Wallochian nobles ordered Edar to appear.

It was about seeing you soon with good news.

cuggit

“Stupid guy!”

Conrad was taken aback by Vlad’s angry voice.

“Oh, father?”

“How many are there now?”

“There are two more people besides Agathon in Wallochia…”

“Not that! How many children can I take with me right now!”

“Eight, including me.”

“Collect them all! hurry! If you don’t hurry, Agathon will die!”

“Ah, I see!”
