Chapter 891: Preparation, familiar summoning

The vampires are divided into strict castes.

Depending on the purity of their bloodline, a vampire's power can differ drastically from one purity to the other.

The purer the blood, the stronger their vampiric powers. As for vampires with a mixed heritage, their powers were weaker.

Blood is the bread and butter of all vampires, it's even more important than their heart and brain. It's the source of their powers, the medium by which they summoned familiars, the price they pay to host the vassal beasts inside their body. Without the familiars, they would be nothing.

Bloodline purity is directly linked to their powers.

Vampires can live for a very long time, they have strong lifeforce that kept them going for centuries without aging a day. Through their longevity, they slowly built up magic power, they can also consume the blood of others to obtain greater power.

The longer a vampire has been alive, the likelier it is that they consumed a ton of blood thereby achieving greater magic power. Veteran vampires tend to be stronger than younger vampires because of this aspect.

A pure-blooded vampire at birth is just as strong as a hybrid vampire who lived a long life. By drawing a winning ticket at life, their advantage allowed them to lord over the other plebian vampires, there is only so much time and effort can do to beat pure talent.

Pureblood vampires who have been around for ages are incredibly powerful. Then, you have the primogenitors, the original vampires who were vampires before the term was even coined, it's hard to top individuals like that.

Through a very long history, the vampires have established a hierarchy among themselves, it's rather well-known too. Vampires are typically divided into 5 orders based on their bloodline purity and age.

First order: Lesser vampires

These vampires can't summon vassal beasts. Lacking the unique trait of a vampire, these lesser vampires are the weakest vampires of them all. They can be easily taken down by other demons, even humans can beat them. They are looked down upon and hated by vampires with purer bloodlines.

Second order: New vampires from recent years

These vampires are just average. Most are born with mixed or impure bloodline, they are also relatively young compared to other vampires. Hence, they don't possess a lot of magic power. Their familiars are also weak. But, these vampires can still be a terrifying force in combat, especially against other vampires because their familiars are as lethal and capable as a cutting-edge tank or jet.

Third order: Vampires of yore

These vampires are very old. They possess immense magic power, their familiars are strong enough to wipe a village out if they so choose. The purer vampires among this order can wipe out a city in a night. Individually, they are one man army. Understandably, you don't want to meet one in combat.

Fourth order: Elder vampires

These vampires are so old they are probably very close in age to the Primogenitors, if not direct descendants of Primogenitors themselves. Some of them are acknowledged by primogenitors and granted a part of a their blood. Not all of them are related to the primogenitors, however, being inferior to only the primogenitors mean that even if they are not Primogenitors per se, they are still outstanding in their own rights.

Fifth order: Primogenitors.

These vampires have been around the longest, these sovereigns of all vampires stood at the top without exception. Their vassal beasts can destroy an empire.

Vampires are the top dogs among demons and the primogenitors are the apex lifeform among vampires. Not bound by mortal limits, they are the longest living lifeforms on this world. Luckily, there are only 4 primogenitors of which 3 are officially known. If there are more primogenitors walking around, it would be the demons who rule this world, not the humans.

It's not easy to climb up the order, bloodline is often the key limiting factor. Lower order vampires can still grow stronger than older or purer vampires, however, it would be a herculean task.

For instance, the younger vampires can grow stronger in a short time by resorting to cannibalism, devouring older and stronger vampires, taking the powers of the stronger vampire. In other words, they can rapidly grow by taking over the bloodline of a stronger vampire.

However, this method isn't very practical.

Using this method, a vampire who consumed a stronger vampire faces a high risk of getting his own ego destroyed by the bloodline they are trying to consume. Unless they are very capable, or if the target vampire is too tired of living, this method carries a high risk of death for the predator vampire.

Just like there are Hyper Adapters, superhumans among the humans. There are vampires that are born with special abilities. With these rare and unique abilities, these vampires stand the best chance when it comes to consuming a stronger vampire.

Vampire cannibalism would work best for these super vampires.

Of course, that comes with its own difficulty.

Natsuki is guessing that Wu Yan is one of these super vampire. His special ability is probably the cause of his eye color change when he's serious. It would also explain why he's walking around with a mind-boggling amount of magic power.

When Wu Yan said he was going to summon his familiar. Natsuki immediately offered a venue for him.

With his gargantuan magic power, he's definitely going to summon some aberrant vassal beasts. She cannot have any of that, Itogami Island cannot take such a huge damage that's why she decided to find a secure location for him to undertake that task.

Minamiya Natsuki wasn't aware that Wu Yan's unique traits wasn't a result of being born a super vampire. He's just a true ancestor with a different nature than the vampires of this world.

Even so, she's right in deciding to find a secure place for familiar summoning. If a true ancestor's familiar go rogue on a small place like that Itogami Island, it would sink easily...

In an isolated area on Itogami Island.

Natsuki examined the barrier installations around her. She praised Wu Yan.

"Even though you're a vampire, I am genuinely impressed that you constructed this barrier, I dare say your mastery of magic surpass many trained and well-known magicians."

"Well, I guess..."

Wu Yan stopped drawing magical formations, he also stopped channeling magic power into his formation. He nodded with satisfaction.

"Although I know how to do this barrier formation, it's still my first time actually casting this under a time and quality constraint, this is my limit for now. If this isn't enough to stop a vassal beast rampage, I don't know if I should cry or laugh..."

It would take an absolute monster of a familiar to break his current barrier formation. If his barrier withstood the power outflow, that would mean he is indeed very powerful in casting barrier spells.

"Fine, just get on with it."

Natsuki propped up her parasol as she gazed upon the night sky.

"It's a very dark night tonight, this is the optimal time for a creature of the night like you."

Wu Yan inhaled deeply. Then, his eyes flashed in a golden hue...
