My Alter Ego’s Path to Greatness Chapter 198

#198

White Giant (5)

The kingdom of Thalia is now under the rule of the vampire clan alliance ‘Hybrid’.

All blood donation centers set up here and there were operating normally, and the public’s confusion was gradually calming down.

Now, the number of people praising them is increasing, saying that life is better than before, so it can be said that everything is going smoothly at this rate.

“… These are the incidents and accidents that occurred in Korea this week.”

However, that did not mean that all problems within the kingdom were solved.

This is because reactionary instigation of citizens, terrorist attempts targeting social infrastructure and blood donation centers, and even plots of rebellion are still popping up whenever we can forget about them.

They say they are trying to catch anyone caught in the information network spread like a spider’s web, but their methods are becoming more and more sophisticated, so it is inevitable that it will be a nuisance in many ways.

‘Even if you don’t, there’s a lot of work to do.’

Heinz II, who was quietly listening to the report in the king’s office, frowned and tilted his head.

“Hmm, are the three surrounding kingdoms behind it?”

“That’s right. However, since they were destroying all evidence and moving on, we were unable to obtain concrete evidence. Sorry, High Lord.”

At his light words, Mulo Brokoslak, who oversees all domestic and international information, bowed his head deeply as if he was sorry.

Heinz nodded roughly and skimmed through the report listing the details.

‘Still, it’s decreased a lot compared to the beginning. Well, since they’ve beaten him that much, the people who are doing the trick must have felt that there was no answer to this.’

In any case, Hybrid’s control over the Kingdom of Thalia was at a level beyond imagination.

It was natural that there were vampires all over the country who were absolutely loyal to the monarch, who had abilities far superior to those of humans and could not even dream of betrayal or appeasement.

There were one or two attempts to sway ordinary citizens, but each time they were destroyed before anything could be done, and now even those who could sympathize with him have dried up.

‘There will be some confusion due to the intervention of other countries, but this will not last very long.’

I could fully understand their position.

No matter how much the main religious order and the saints tolerated them, they must have been anxious because the vampires they had regarded as enemies their entire lives had swallowed up a neighboring country.

Even now, aren’t hybrids continuing to increase their numbers by attracting compatriots from all over the continent?

I guess they wanted to buy time to come up with a countermeasure by interfering like this.

‘If you think about it, their concerns are not wrong since the underworld there is also slowly encroaching.’

Heinz coldly sneered and put down the report he was holding.

Now, because of the public’s attention, I had no choice but to remain silent in response to their tricks, but I did not intend to suffer like this forever.

‘First of all, we should start by slowly expanding our influence within the cancer center.’

If you’re going to do it, do it right.

In the first place, isn’t secret fighting in the dark the specialty of vampires that has lasted for a long time?

“by the way.”

He paused for a moment and opened his mouth again, picking up another document next to the report he had put down.

“This information… did it just come in?”

“Yes that’s right. In fact, that can be said to be the core of this report. “This is the latest information that was hastily collected and organized after first hearing the news and realizing the seriousness of the situation.”

Mulo replied and confidently began the briefing.

“It is said that huge white giants are appearing all over the continent. Its size is ridiculously larger than that of an ordinary castle wall, and its strength and regenerative power are also…”

All of this information Heinz already knew.

However, the information that followed also included something he did not know.

“There are three objects observed so far. There are two subdued entities. One of them was immediately dealt with by a death squad led by Saint Heinrich in the Kingdom of Lesque…”

It turns out that there was not only one giant that had already appeared in this world.

“The other one was wandering around the western border of the Azerion Empire and was killed by high-ranking officers, including the corps commander. “It is said that the damage suffered by the military unit in that sudden uproar was so great that the entire army that was blocking the monsters in the west was on the verge of collapse.”

As someone who had personally dealt with that monster, I knew for sure how difficult it was to deal with.

But before they knew it, they had hunted another one in another place, so it seemed like their potential was indeed formidable.

‘Is it an empire after all? The damage seems to have been great, but it looks like they were able to catch it on their own somehow.’

However, there was one notable difference from the giant that Heinrich experienced.

“…You corroded the surroundings just by breathing?”

“Yes that’s right. It is said that he breathed through the only open nostril and exhaled toxic gas. It is said that because of that, accessing it itself was an arduous task.”

However, survivors of the unit that first discovered it testified that it did not have such abilities at first.

Then there was only one conclusion.

‘…Just as I feared, I can’t help but think that he has become stronger by accumulating bad karma.’

It certainly felt like the White Giant’s abilities were weak compared to its presence.

Of course, it was overwhelming in itself, but the direction of its ability was too focused on survival.

‘Yes, that black seal was definitely unpleasant. So, is this a method of deliberately sealing one’s abilities in order to emerge from the abyss and then unsealing them one by one by accumulating bad karma on earth?’

When the information from Hans’ “Heart of the Immortal” and “Forbidden Knowledge” was added to the newly received news, I was able to quickly assess the situation.

Of course, it was unfortunate that we still couldn’t find out the identity of the White Giant, but that would be something we would gradually find out in the future.

“And the one we couldn’t subdue…”

Even as Heinz continued his thoughts, Mulo continued to speak.

“After appearing on the territory of the Principality of Rohan and inflicting fatal damage on the National Guard. “It is said that he fled after fighting with the elites of the main church, including Cardinal Piray, who appeared late.”

In the meantime, it is said that the church members ended up missing the giant because he threatened the survivors of the National Guard using monsters that had been pushed out of the mountain range.

‘…Surely monsters and giants are hosts of the same madness. Plus, he has the intelligence to use it.’

In that troubling situation, Heinz quietly closed his eyes and was lost in thought.

There were three giants that appeared right away, and I even missed one of them.

Wouldn’t that guy who ran away become a big obstacle later?

There was even no guarantee that the appearance of giants would end here.

If those who came out like that escaped like this time….

“It is said that the giant who escaped like that hid somewhere in the northern mountain range, but since the location was just a location, it was impossible to find out his whereabouts thereafter.”

Heinz opened his closed eyes and looked at Mulo at that moment.

‘hmm? Speaking of the northern mountains towards the Principality of Rohan….’

But then.

Kwaang—!

There was someone who confidently entered the office with the door wide open.

“Heinz! “I’ve been there.”

It was another Holy Blood Bricky of Hybrid.

“Oh, so there was Mulo too? Road… no high road? The girl went there? Uhuhu—.”

Bricky sneers as if he didn’t know anything until he saw Mulo, and only then does he show respect.

With her ability, she would have been able to figure out who was inside in advance, but since this was not the first time she had seen something like that, she was thinking about doing it now.

‘More than anything, he is far and away the oldest. Plus, it’s a great source of labor.’

In addition, Mulo was once her direct subordinate, so this much was understandable.

“…High Lord? I suddenly felt bad again. “I think it was like this last time, but why is this happening?”

“Maybe there’s not enough blood. I’ll tell you in advance, so pick a few people from the camp. “What’s the matter?”

Bricky, who was as sharp as ever, looked at him with a frown, but Heinz spoke calmly.

Then she grunted as if she had no choice, but obediently opened her mouth—.

It was the content that the work of politely inviting vampire clans located in the Azerion Empire was finally completed.

Of course, it was difficult to find those who were hiding, but since a force of a certain size was bound to be revealed somehow, the number of people missed would not be that many.

“The North is in shambles, so I don’t think there will be any clans left, and the southern barbarians are very difficult for us to stay in… Now all that’s left is the Republic of Zephia in the East?”

“Hmm, that’s right?”

Anyway, this concludes my rough understanding of the current situation.

From the internal situation of the Kingdom of Thalia to the existence of the White Giant, which can be considered a variable, and the Obypo Clan in the east, which can be said to be the final gateway to the vampire clan.

‘I think we need to be more at the forefront in order to actively intervene in this situation.’

Coincidentally, the second continental summit was held soon.

Of course, the Kingdom of Thalia was also proudly invited.

“Bricky Mulo.”

“Hmm~?”

“Yes, please say so. High Road.”

Originally, I had planned to send Duke Bright as a proxy like before, but when I thought about it, this meeting was the first international event since the hybrid ‘New Thalia Kingdom’ system was established.

But wouldn’t it be a mistake to send an agent even in this situation?

“I will personally participate in this continental summit. “Be prepared, too.”

“…yes! We will prepare without a hitch. High Road.”

“Uh, do I really have to go too? Still, wouldn’t one person have to guard the base?”

Bricky grunted as if he was quite annoyed as he had just returned from work.

But when he thought about it, what she said was not wrong, so Heinz nodded obediently.

“…Okay, Brickie. “You stay here.”

“Uhuhu—okay, leave this place to me and go, High Road!”

Seeing her happy at the thought of finally being able to rest well made me want to make sure to give her a lot of work to do before she left.

‘Now is the time to make Heinz’s name known in earnest. ‘I’m going to warn Obaipo and show off.’

In this way, an entity that others had not expected directly participated in the Second Continental Summit.

Ruler of the Kingdom of New Thalia.

High Lord of the Outerica Vampire Clan Alliance.

A great blooded vampire.

Vampire King Heinz Hybrid II.

***

Deep in the northern mountains.

It is a dark mountain with a gloomy atmosphere all year round, surrounded by high and rugged mountains.

Grumble—! Quaaaang!

There with wild binge drinking.

[———!]

A heavy sound, like the howling of a whale, rang out.

But the intense noise didn’t last long.

That’s right, in this place right now….

[The lord ordered to exterminate all monsters approaching the vicinity and turn them into undead.]

With the Death Knight Lord Karam.

[dare-! Are you trying to invade the king’s sanctuary with your dirty feet—! I will imprint fear into you—!]

Dread Phantom Pagos.

[…This meat is not tasty….]

Including the Ghoul Lord Fiona—.

Unlike Dwell, who had weak combat power, Acrich Kelifa, a typical combat-oriented warlock, and Doom Knight Drexler, who is over 3 meters tall and wearing armor all over his body, are

new executive-level undead who joined one by one over a short period of time. This was because the fields were also crowded here.

[———!]

Because of this, the white giant, who had confidently stepped into the realm of immortality, was unable to even resist, and in an instant, his entire body was cut into pieces and only his head was dragged around.

Of course, the corrosive gas flowing out of one of his nostrils was just a perfume with nothing special to those present.

[Thank you all for your hard work… This is a monster I’ve never seen before…]

[It was no trouble, Olivia. However, this guy didn’t seem to be an ordinary monster due to the madness inside it, so I brought it for now. How should I handle this?]

[Hmm… I’m not sure if it’s possible to turn them into undead, but it’s definitely not a normal life form… But to be sure, it would be better to call Dwell and ask…]

That’s how Karam and Olivia talked. When sharing.

Tuk-tuk!

Their eyes turned to the side at the sound of a small noise, as if something was breaking.

The source of the sound is the mouth of a white giant with only its head remaining.

The black wire that was sewing the mouth was slowly fading away and the mouth was opening little by little.

[Hmm? Is there something left to do? You’re bothering me.]

Grumble—

Karam stepped forward, pulled out the large two-handed sword on his back, and unleashed black magic like a black flame.

The same goes for some executives who were looking at the big head.

However, what the giant did when all the seals around his mouth were finally released was not a special attack.

I just uttered a few short words.

[The destination of all life—. The fate and end point of life—.]

The executives of the immortal army secretly exchanged glances among themselves at his sudden remark.

[…is this?]

[Are you talking…?]

But no matter how they reacted, the giant’s head just muttered to itself.

[The oldest uncleanness—evidence of eternal loss—stuck at the very bottom of the abyss—.]

A giant’s head stuttering incomprehensibly.

[Death—.]

[Are you… asking me to kill you…? I can do that whenever you want, but…]

Olivia cut him off in annoyance at his spinning words.

And as if those words were not a joke, a cool ghost energy began to gather in her throat along with high-density black magic.

[Immortal King—Let me meet the Immortal King—.]

Then the white head finally got to the point.

[Hmm, indeed.]

Although it was a somewhat sudden statement, the executives were also able to roughly understand the situation as they were also those who had been with the previous Immortal King.

Apparently, the monster harboring this ‘madness’ had something to do with the abyss, like the ‘death’ of the Immortal King.

Karam, who understood the entire situation, put his sword on his shoulder and nodded leisurely.

[Hmm. I understand what you mean.]

[Then—the immortal king—.]

[But that’s it.]

For a moment, a black light flashed.

Whiik— phuwaak—!

The huge two-handed sword left deep scars on the giant’s face.

[Off—?]

[Why are you telling our master to come and go? You are so arrogant.]

[This… I think it will be a very good sample… The King will be pleased… I will summon Dwell…]

Also, they are with Hans, the current Immortal King. As we were together, I also clearly realized that he did not like ‘madness’ that much.
