Necron: The Legend Of Rezar DeathWind

Chapter 29: Dark Side Of Humanity (VIII): Vampires

Rezar looked at the priest with a look that the priest himself couldn't understand, it wasn't one of decision or disdain, hell it wasn't a look of anything, but at the very least the priest felt that it meant something. But he reckoned that what Rezar had just said was right, the world wasn't as simple or as nice as he had made it out to be, the consequences of some actions don't just vanish like that.

"The only way that you can truly make up for this, is one if you help me some more, I promise it would be worth your while and your church will prosper. You just have to be willing to stand by me and don't look at me like I'm carrying the worst disease to have ever existed in Elysium."

"But you are the worst disea....." The priest swallowed the rest of his words, that had slipped out before he knew it, but Rezar knew he was right. Something hat can chase permanent death in a world that's practically a virtual recycle bin for the human soul. He was a fucking virus! That could eat up everything in it's path.

"The second thing you would need to do is help me bring Roland to justice!" it was at this point that there was a look on Rezar's face. It was calm, but his dark midnight blue eyes seemed to glint with a hidden shine of stars. The priest has lived many life times and has had the blessing and curse of remembering it all, he could recognize such a look even in his sleep; it was cold rage and wrath.

"You're going to kill him aren't you?" The priest asked with a voice that was just as calm and just as cool. Rezar funded to him and this time he gave a mischievous smile.

"What? Did you think I was going to adopt him? Hahahaha nope, Elysium would be very much like earth in that regard, there would be no justice for me or the people who have died, not unless I take it for myself. And lately I've realized I'm very fond of taking things for myself, especially when it's a life." The priest felt a chill, but he still felt that he needed to say this.

"Then you're out of luck, he's already left for his family's lands in the east. The coward couldn't spend an extra second because he was scared the slaves would tear him apart, he also took the doctor with him, pushing me into that role until another one is found. You would never get a chance to see him again." It might seem like the Priest was trying to discourage Rezar, and maybe he was, but this was he reality of his life, the quicker he accepted it, the better.

"That wouldn't stop me, if my plan goes according to plan, I would be out of this place and a free man within 6 months to 3 years. My sentence was slavery for all lifetime and all reincarnations, it would take a little more than a single platinum coin to get me out of here, however I can achieve that with what I've been given.

Three years is not too late for me to go get my revenge, Roland can enjoy his borrowed time until I come for him. And you're going to help me." It wasn't a question, Rezar didn't have time to give the Priest a choice, after everything that's happened to him, the priest was either on his side, or part of the enemies he has to take down.

"I'll try my best to help, this is just and it's not something God will stand for. What do you need from me Rezar?" the priest asked, accepting his fate and justifying it in the name of justice, not even caring or thinking that maybe for Rezar to get to Roland, he would most definitely leave a pile of corpses in his wake, the priest really had a problem with justification and seeing the bigger picture, he just did as his heart led him. Rezar felt it was foolish and stupid, but it was admirable and Understandable because before he was placed in front of slaves and forced to his death, he was just like that.

"Well first of all I need you to train me, teach me everything about fighting, especially how to fight in groups, like an army or something. I'm sure you've experienced or seen something like that in one of your lives. You also have to teach me how to fight too, I don't want to be weak anymore or have strength with focus and direction.

Secondly I'll need you to help me make money, I can mine and excavate ores, the simplest to the rarest and have them available in bulk, enough that a single shipment of it would have you rolling in gold coins. I don't trust Lenore, she might have tried her best, but she's still a puppet under the control of that Roland and his family, so I'd rather avoid dealings with her.

I'll give you the ores, and you'll be responsible for selling them. Either get a merchant you can trust, or go to a large town or city and sell it all. Either way you'll help me make the money I need to get free of slavery. It would also help you and your church, I'll give you a 2% cut from every profit we make. Don't be greedy Padre, two percent of a hundred fold is two gold, that's frankly too much money for you in a month. If we'll be making more than that.

And finally I need information from you, it's very important and I'd like to know what it means or if there's a secret behind it, because I can't remember anything about this particular topic.. what's a vampire?"

The Priest was taken aback, from his reaction he knew exactly what a vampire was, and it was definitely not information that someone other than him was supposed to know. How and in what way had Rezar came in contact with information about a vampire, not unless...no! It would not be wise to jump into speculation, it would be better to just answer the question.

" Vampires are old secrets, very old! What I didn't tell you is that I've been alive for no less than 469 reincarnations, and in all of them, the least amount of years I've lived is 16 years old, before dying and moving on to the next. In all of those reincarnations, I've came across vampires in my first, to sixteenth reincarnation and they've never been heard from since.

Vampires! Are the true definition of eternal life, they're very much immortal and were born from a time when death classes were actually as a peak. It was very dark times Rezar, necromancers were very powerful beings that could actually control the very cycle of reincarnation with the help of a powerful book they called the Necron.

They were unstoppable, they brought death, they brought chaos, but most especially none of them were humans!

The necromancers were able to obtain a racial upgrade well suited for their death classes, that race had many disadvantages. They couldn't come out in sunlight, they were allergic to silver, they couldn't come near holy places, or come in contact with holy water, and they could only survive on one thing alone...the blood of the living.

But even with all those disadvantages there were also great advantages, even at the basic tier of the race, they had strength akin to a level 50 warrior, speed akin to a level 60 ranger or rogue, they could heal from almost any damage in seconds even if you use the things I've mentioned to harm them. As long as they aren't exposed to silver, sunlight and holy water for long they'll heal. There are even some very powerful enough to heal from a decapitated head.

They controlled the shadows, and the night itself, they had a fondness for bats, could shape shift, had a powerful Charming ability called the allure, and the most dangerous of them all, they were the most powerful necromancers in existence. They unlocked and utilized parts of necromancy never seen before of has ever been seen since then. But they weren't just necromancers, they were lichs, death knights, soul reapers, death adjudicators, dullahans, and so many of the most powerful and the most dangerous of death classes.

Their reign was one of revenge Rezar, they went after the people living in Elysium, for all of the prejudice and torture they went through, the sought revenge. And with the use of the most powerful tool ever created in Elysium, the Necron, they could decide how you lived, when you lived and who you're supposed to be. It was the Necron that gave me the trait of Memory Bank! Making it so that I remember everything in all of my lifetimes.

The vampires were destroyed with help from the outside, someone was able to create an event in Elysium, they called it the daylight war. At the time the time the vampires were trying to create a spell that would shroud Elysium in darkness for all eternity, and with the help of someone on the outside, in they real world, the spell was piggy backed by an elite group of religious classes. There was sunlight for three whole months! And that was enough to completely wipe out the vampires until none of them were left.

The Necron was lost, tales of it and the vampires that created it were lost to history, somehow Elysium seemed to have deleted and removed it from the memories of everyone and everything. Maybe there are records of it in the outside world, but none in here.....except for me.

The thing about vampires is that, they're like zombies, in fact they're the pinnacle of undead creatures, and after the first vampire completed his racial Quest that changed him into a vampire, he became capable of turning others into the same creature, by draining them dry of their blood, and giving them his own to drink when they're on the brink of death. Then he kills them And then buries them. In under three days, they're back on ground, stronger, faster, and with an intense thirst for blood. Now the most powerful beings to walk Elysium.

Rezar...please answer me truthfully as this is important.....are you a vampire? Is that how you survived?" Rezar looked at the priest and said.

"I'm not a vampire priest, the reason for my resurrection is very different, but now that I know what a vampire is, I can wholeheartedly say...it's a disgusting race to be!"
