—I…cannot…remember… I…have…no memories…

The Monstrous Rock Giant had no idea why it had traveled all the way here to the Tionis Continent, a place in another dimension. This was the forest that it had woken up in. This was after it had regained its consciousness by absorbing a large amount of power.

This was a complete bust if Davey was being honest, but he focused on one thing.

“You don’t have any memories before coming here, huh…”

—Y..es. Human… None whatsoever…

“Any memory of meeting someone?”

The Monstrous Rock Giant tilted its head in confusion at Davey’s question, but soon nodded in understanding.

—N…o.

Davey was quite disappointed with blowing the opportunity he had worked so hard to get.

—But…

However, the rock giant squeezed out a voice even while losing its mind.

—I…am not…sure…but I think I saw… I saw a light.

“A light?”

—A pure, white light…but a dark one…

‘Is this guy giving me a riddle right now?’

—It was a pure, white light…but it was dark. It was not warm…but cold…

Davey silently stared at the Monstrous Rock Giant, who lowered its head like it could not say anything more. It was starting to lose its consciousness.

Crash!!

Then, the Monstrous Rock Giant flew its huge fist towards Davey with only its instincts left.

Crash!!

The ground cracked with a huge explosion and shook heavily.

“I guess it wasn’t for nothing.” Davey nodded slowly after blocking the Monstrous Rock Giant’s fist with a talisman.

—Do you have any guesses?

“No.”

How could Davey know just from that stupid riddle alone? However, one thing was clear: something that was extremely advanced in magic, even to the point of going beyond dimensions, had put these creatures on the Tionis Continent, where Davey was, on purpose. It was an unnatural phenomena with some unknown reason behind it.

Davey didn’t know why they were causing something like this, but he knew for certain that they were probably both sent by the same being and that there was no guarantee that the unknown being wouldn’t send another creature.

“Thanks for the information. You can rest now.”

—Ru…

“No, I don’t have to run. You won’t die, either,” Davey said calmly, then pulled out a few talismans from his Pocket Plane. He stuck them on the rock giant’s forehead without hesitation before putting his hands together in a hand seal.

Voosh!!!! Rustle!!!!

At the same time, a different power than the one that was flowing out of the brooch embedded in the rock giant’s heart began merging with the talisman. It was daoist magic; the source of sorcery and a power that did not exist in this world.

How could these mere mosquitoes notice this power that even the former World Tree could not detect? It wouldn’t be possible even if they all became malaria mosquitoes all of a sudden.

The power that finished merging with the chains on the outside soon began to change. A golden chain began climbing up and tying the entire Monstrous Rock Giant. Davey then threw his talisman and stuck them near the rock giant. Of course, the talismans, which had become absorbed to one another, were fully activated, and Davey used them to seal him completely with every last bit of power he had.

[Third Grade Binding Talisman]

[Thunderous Sealing of the Soul]

The Monstrous Rock Giant had to be kept in this state.

* * *

Right after sealing the Monstrous Rock Giant, Davey did not head straight to where the strong current of power–where the Son of Heaven, Empress Dowager, and the high-ranking vampire–was. He was going somewhere else.

Voosh… Rustle…

Dozens of talismans immediately floated up into the air and rotated like they were organizing themselves. Then, they descended slowly like they had found their place.

Whoosh!!

It did not end there. As Davey cast a sorcery spell with a gentle hand seal, blue lights connected the talismans together and created a huge symbol. It was an extremely intricate symbol, but any sorcerer who was able to use a second grade talisman could do this.

The destination was where the ones who had crystallized Davey’s power had run off to.

Davey could sense their presence from not too far away, so it was clear that their hideout wasn’t too far. He was trying to [break into an empty house]; they were probably at ease from thinking that they would not be attacked, but that would come back to haunt them.

The very first thing Davey did was not break their barrier that was blocking outsiders from approaching, but covering that barrier with his own power; he did this to stop them from bothering him when he would come in and absorb the power.

‘Alright, I’ll stop him like you want. But if I can’t come in, you also shouldn’t be able to come out.’

Davey was going to let them know what it felt like to only be able to sit back and watch while their own house burned down.

[Second Grade Sorcery]

[Grand Teleportation]

Pzzzz!! Boom!!

Not long after, the sorcery spell came into full effect. As the [Second Grade Grand Teleportation] began activation, Davey locked its destination in one place: the place where a certain amount of his daoist magic was gathered and made a circle.

There was only one place on this continent where Davey’s daoist magic would be making a circle with the exception of the Guardian Deity: it was the hideout of the vampires who had retreated to their main base without even realizing what was in the power they had stolen from Davey.

The strong flow of power that ran wild right now was strictly the Guardian Deity’s. There was a very good chance that the power they had stolen from Davey had already been crystallized and transported to their main base. That was the assumption if they were wary of him.

Davey held Blue Ribbon in his hand and slowly walked as a black crack appeared in the surroundings with a huge wave.

Boom!!

In a moment, the surroundings changed to show a completely different atmosphere. It had become a huge underground space, and in it was a huge temple. Davey could also see vampires staring directly at him, as if they were telling him that he had moved to the right place.

Grabbing and twisting the neck of a yawning male vampire as he descended, Davey threw his fist toward the rest of the vampires who were staring at him with wide eyes.

[Devil Ylgr’s Crowd Control]

[Piercing Strike]

Kaboom!!!!

There was no way a fragile low-ranking vampire would be able to withstand the attack. Davey began to feel presences show up from all over the place as his power, while controlling them and almost ripping their bodies apart, resonated out.

The vampires who were on guard nearby had gathered here after hearing the huge explosion. Their eyes widened as they stared at their fellow vampires, who had all become dead bodies, and Davey, who was the one who had ripped them apart.

“A-A human?!”

“How did a human get in here?!”

Aside from Davey’s identity, the vampires seemed shocked that a human had appeared here instead of a vampire.

‘Well, rightfully so.’

They were bound to be surprised as Davey had teleported in here regardless of the barrier, which blocked all mana, surrounding this place.

However, the ability that transported him here was not mana, devil mana, or holy power, but sorcery, a power that did not exist in the Tionis Continent; of course a barrier meant to block mana would not block sorcery.

“A human!!”

“A human has appeared!!”

The reaction to an unwanted guest was more prompt than Davey had thought. A large number of vampires had shown up and surrounded him even though it hadn’t been long since a vampire had crushed a marble in his hand to alert the others of the emergency. Some of them had bright red bullets, which were made from their blood, all over their bodies; they were prepared to pierce thousands of holes into Davey if he moved.

“This is a hell of a welcome,” Davey mumbled calmly.

He looked around, discovering the one thing that was different from what he had expected. He could see that there were almost no high-ranking vampires around.

‘It seems like…’

-It is really an ant’s nest…

The vampires were not all gathered in one place, and there were multiple hideouts like this all over the continent. Since he couldn’t get the information out of the vampires as they would explode from the curse, Davey had no choice but to find out for himself.

“Don’t move, human.”

“How dare you enter this place.”

It wasn’t weird for a fight to break out at any moment, but the vampires were more wary of Davey than necessary. It made sense as the energy that he had released hadn’t calmed down after crushing the earlier vampires. Also, his relatively more relaxed energy was still enough for low-ranking vampires to feel that they should not attack him recklessly.

“Wow. How can I thank you for this amazing deal?”

‘Inviting me to this amazing place just because I lent you some of my power.’

Davey no longer spoke. Pushing his left foot back to secure his footing, he held Blue Ribbon backwards before spinning it around. He appeared to be winding it up.

Whoosh!!!!!

Blue Ribbon began trembling, emitting blue energy. The sword, which was less than a meter long, quickly transformed with the sword energy to take on a clear shape.

‘The only thing left is conflict if they have no intentions of talking about it.’

Realizing that they were in a weird situation, the vampires quickly began attacking Davey.

However, Blue Ribbon’s transformation was already complete. Davey was no longer holding onto a small sword but a large sword of over fifteen meters long. The sword began burning intensely with a blue flame as soon as its transformation was done.

Davey aimed the tip of the blade at the vampires and wound it up. His goal was the vampires surrounding him. It would be best to blow up the ancient ruins along with them, but that could potentially damage the precious information here as well. As such, Davey was going to craft his attack delicately so that it would only destroy things up to the protective barrier.

Besides, Blue Ribbon specialized in breaking barriers.

[Transcendental Longsword]

[Second Grade Sorcery Sword]

[Spell Merger]

[Cloud Split]

“M-Move!!”

One of the vampires who sensed the danger shouted urgently, but it was already too late. The blue sword that was over fifteen meters tall swallowed up all the surrounding vampires. It made a clean cut through the underground space.

* * *

Boom!!!!

Massive explosions were heard from all over the place.

“Kahh!!!”

“M-Monster! Get out! Run!”

The vampires were screaming in horror.

The dozens of fire balls weren’t that strong on their own, but they were a very threatening attack that fell continuously. After exploding apart, they even ignited the surroundings. On top of that, it was actually a holy flame, the most dangerous thing to vampires; as it was the [Flame of God], an 8th-level holy magic spell, there was no way high-ranking vampires, let alone low-ranking ones, could stop it.

“Stop that bastard!! Don’t let him go any further!!”

The high-ranking vampires who were hiding in the area probably had no idea that their house was burning.

Davey was able to invade without difficulty as he had successfully broken into their house, but that didn’t mean that there was no resistance.

“Get out of our area! Uncivilized hum… Kakk!!”

“You have nothing to say even when you get murdered by an uncivilized human being, right?”

Davey, who instantly penetrated the vampire’s heart, shook off the blood from his arms and walked into the temple. Watching the vampire’s hideout, which had been turned upside down… he muttered, “Now, I am a bit satisfied.”

Compared to how they had attacked him, Davey was letting the vampires get off easy.

The pleasure from breaking into the vampires’ basecamp, which was a thorn in his side, getting information and materials needed for the resurrection of Demon Lord Perserque, receiving information and the vampires’ valued items, and a large sum of money from the vampires who liked to collect gold…

‘This is hitting four birds with one stone.’

—You ask for ten when they give you one…

‘That’s not just limited to vampires.’

There was still somewhere Davey hadn’t received his ten yet; he was referring to the Hyeon Kingdom, the place he would have to go and deal with.

“I’m thinking of taking half of the forest.”

And the one who would guard the forest would be… Right, there was one who controlled wind and thunder among the Four Divine Beasts.

—Is that possible… No way… The reason that you sealed the Monstrous Rock Giant instead of healing it was…

“It has to give it to me if it wants to live. It will go mad the second I do something,” said Davey eerily.

Perserque frowned.

—How petty…
