Chereads / The Vampire from Nowhere / Chapter 14 - Loathe

Chapter 14 - Loathe

"HYM! Let's go to WARE for my next evolution!", I say with excitement.

[HOST IS ADVISED TO EVOLVE AT THE CURRENT LOCATION, AS IT SEEMS THERE WAS A LANDSLIDE TO THE ENTRANCE AND THIS IS THE NEXT SAFEST LOCATION. LANDSLIDE OCCURS HERE FREQUENTLY, BUT TOMORROW THE RUBBLE WILL HAVE BEEN REFORMED DUE TO LIVE DUNGEON'S SPECIAL SKILL <>], HYM says. Much to my disappointment.

"Well..." I say. "Let's do it here, then."

[CHECKING... THE REQUIREMENT QUOTA OF EVOLUTION HAS BEEN MET. HOST IS ADVISED TO WAIT 24 HOURS BEFORE THE EVOLUTION.]

"But why? Haven't I already met the quota?", I asked questioningly. I wanted to get out of this dungeon as fast as I could. Not to mention, the more time I spent here, I feel like I am edging out. Giving up my sanity... As well as my humanity with it.

[THE REASON FOR THIS DELAY IS BECAUSE OF YOUR FAST EVOLUTION SPEED. YOU HAVE BEEN HERE FOR 5 DAYS AND YOUR BODY HAS GONE THROUGH MAJOR TRANSFORMATION IN SUCH A SMALL AMOUNT OF TIME THAT THE BODY IF EVOLVED FURTHER MIGHT ACTUALLY DISINTEGRATE AND KILL YOU. ORIGINALLY THE TIME PERIOD FOR EACH EVOLUTION WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AROUND A WEEK, BUT DUE TO THE SITUATION NOW I HAD TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE EVOLUTION REQUESTS.]

I was taken aback. I was evolving recklessly without knowing my life was on the line. Furthermore, I didn't want to die twice... But... I asked him to evolve me anyway, since my top priority was getting out. I did not care if my life was on the line. And I had this feeling that I won't die now. Though HYM was reluctant on my request but left with no choice, he evolved me into "AETHER" a being who is also known as "Immature Vampire". It took me 10 days to evolve as HYM wanted to take a bit more time, but not too long as this time I evolved in a Goblin Keep, and my safety was not guaranteed for a very long time.

End flashback... This all happened 4 days ago right now I am fighting the Dungeon Keeper, Loathe. I was transferred here by it for god knows when and god knows how. I woke up to Loathe. It was a gargoyle species boss. It stood 4 meters tall and was made out of enchanted diabase, a really strong rock. Even a mithril sword won't come close to scratching it. It has a speed that isn't to be scoffed at. Compared to Loathe even bullet trains seem like snail. As soon as it finds me, I am dead. Both its attack and vitality stats were at 4 digits. Compared to that, mine is...

STATUS

NAME: HARU YOSHIDA (REINCARNATED) (OTHER WORLDER) (H⃞Y⃞M⃞ H⃞O⃞S⃞T⃞)

SPECIES: UNDEAD, AETHER

AGE: ??

CLASS: CLAIRVOYANT

SKILLS: THIRD EYE, PREDICTION, ORACLE

ATK: 124+Œ MP: 257+Œ

VIT: 347+Œ DEF: 163+Œ

...mine is negligible, sort of. Even if mine is really high. Its stats were exponentially better than me. Not to mention, the lack of any sort of weaponry had me at a disadvantage. Till now, it seems that it has killed me 3 times already. According to HYM, if I die once more my limits will be ignored and the body will go into BERSERK mode to survive, if that happens my rationality becomes zero, and I attack everything in my way. It will only activate for 10 minutes before I exhaust myself and die again. Not to mention, it does not guarantee kill for the target too. And after using this ability the body will have to go through tremendous restructuring which will take a month or two... And that thing could kill me again as soon as I restructure.
