“Arise.”

Moments later, Ann’s body rose from the ground, and she was alive again. She was baffled by this, as she was sure that she lost her life quite clearly, but she also couldn’t dispute the fact that she was alive at that moment. Before she could ask any questions, Victor unsummoned her.

This seemed to be the problem with intelligent creatures or those that were semi intelligent. If not that, it also happened if the one risen again was human. Same as Larry, Victor noticed immediately the confusion, that was why he decided it was best to keep her away in a place where she could rest and recollect herself. He never asked what it felt like when they were unsummoned from the physical world, but Victor could bet that Ann would meet with the others and they would explain to her whatever she needed.

It seemed kind of odd that even with the explosion, no one came down to check what was happening. Victor really thought it might have been a trap, but then that would mean that the one to set him up was Mark, as he was the only one in the city who knew of his presence there.

To make sure, Victor checked the entire place to see if there was any kind of security camera in place, and to his surprise, the entire training ground didn’t have any, which was also strange. On the other hand, he would know if someone was using their power to spy on him, but he felt nothing. Maybe the person was a special type.

In the end, not to dilly dally around, Victor teleported himself elsewhere, close to the location where he was to meet with the others. It had been roughly seven minutes since he sent Larry and the other two to carry out their task, and as he got to their meeting point, it seemed like they had yet to complete what he sent them to do.

He had to wait an extra two minute before Larry and Gurok arrived, and some thirty or so second later, Amadon joined them.

“Sorry to make you wait lord.” Amadon said, as he took a knees with his head held down.

“Don’t worry about it. Was there any lapse in the task?” Victor asked, to which three of them before him responded with a ‘no’. With everything he set to accomplish done, he unsummoned all of them and teleported back to his house.

As simple as that, Victor had gotten what he wanted, something that would cure his weakness to holy energy and the related weaknesses. Since he could now use the blood and essence he collected and stored in his blood bank as evolution materials, just like with the ants, all he needed to do was ask the system to take from his blood band, and he asked it to take all. The system did just that, and the next notification he received was that the sample had gone into analysis.

With that done, there was nothing left for Victor to do than wait. He went for a short stroll through his house and to see the vampires. He was also going to have a chat with Ann and carry out her naming and all that. He was sure she would have a lot of questions, especially as she formerly had a very strong hate for Victor, only for her to now want to serve him with everything she has. The feeling was bound to be weird.

After Victor was done with Ann, he asked one of the vampires to prepare a bath for him. With his immunity to cold and heat, the most he could feel from hot water was warmth, so soaking up at the temperature he used to like was no more. He could only thank God that he wasn’t a Japanese or something. He always wondered why in every anime, the person who isekied would always find a way to dip in a hot spring or something similar, whether they were a villain or hero, human or not, they always did this. Personally, Victor didn’t see the appeal to go that far. Well, everyone with their own quirks.

Another thing Victor did was to leave his legion to roam about freely; at least for once they deserved it. He did ask for the house to have large underground compartments, at least as big as a hanger for a small plane, and one that could house a medium sized passenger plane.

Like that, in that house of undead that never sleep, Victor eventually moved to do something else-

..

The next day, a terrible news broke into the scene around various places, and of course, these places were just two.

As for the Beechmon family, their head was actually pleased that it was all resolved by Victor taking the lives of just two foolish family members. It may have seem cowardly of him and weak, but really, against such a person like Victor, what could he really do?

The remaining members of the family now listened to his words to tread carefully and not anger The Crow. Now they had seen first hand what messing around with real power could cause, they were now better informed.

Of course, Arnold had to head to his friend’s place to tell him about what had happened. When he got there, once again, he entered Mark’s office to find a woman on his lap.. Never learns.

Mark narrated what they had found out to Mark, and how they found out. After learning that Mark was the one who asked or as it happened basically, he begged The Crow not to take action against the entire family, Mark was deeply moved and at the same time a sudden fear came over him. Knowing that he really had just narrowly escaped death was a one of a kind feeling, he was more than happy to have a friend like Mark at that moment.

As it would happen, Arnold learnt that his family was not the only one that took a hit that night, and Mark went on to tell him about what his sources told him about what happened at one of the government facilities, and his encounter with Crow the night before.

..

Elsewhere in a familiar room, others were planning their own scheme.

“How’s it coming along? You ought to have finished, or haven’t you?” The deeper voice asked, demanding an answer.

“Don’t worry Lord, it will be ready soon. It won’t take much time anymore.” The other answered.

“Good Melchior, we are counting on you.”
