Vampire System- The Last Mystic Swordsman

After hours of light in the day, the thick veil of the night finally covered the Great Forest of Elias, plunging it into perpetual darkness.

Somewhere inside this great forest, as the beasts of the night woke up to start another journey of survival, a human and his transformed beast lay under the exposed roots of one of the towering trees of the forest.

Once night came, every lingering injury in Rex's body visibly started healing as in no time, they all disappeared, leaving his body brand new again.

In the night, the familiar feeling of power returned to Rex's body again. As he kept on being revitalized, this was when his eyes snapped open.

On hearing movement, Grey's eyes also snapped open as he stared at his master. His orange eyes glowed faintly in the darkness of the night like fireflies.

After waking up, Rex washed his face as he started checking up on his travel stuff. Due to the lack of a hospital in the Mist Village, Rex was unable to stock up on blood and now, it was only a few more times before he started lacking.

The blood issue was just one of the many problems that came with traveling through this dangerous forest, but Rex was ready for them all.

[You have activated Special Vampire Ability: Morphing!]

[Morphing Forms available: 1.]

[You have transformed into a Half-bat!]

Once Rex made sure that everything was in order, he morphed into his half-bat state without hesitation as he flew to the top of one of the taller trees.

On top of this tree, Rex surveyed across a region of kilometers as his radar-like vision and echolocation ability enabled him to view everywhere around him. He mapped out the location of all the dangerous beasts in the vicinity.

Leaving Obedin City and all that he loved, including Ben and Cassandra, was not something that Rex voluntarily signed up for.

He was pushed by circumstances to abandon his home and his friends. To keep them safe, he decided to go solo.

Going solo did not mean that he intended to just keep on running though, Rex's real plan was that as he ran, he would train like a maniac to develop his powers no matter the risks involved to get powerful enough for his revenge.

After all the secrets that Cassandra revealed to him, he was stunned by some but they opened his eyes to the deeper secrets of his situation.

Rex finally confirmed that the cold-blooded killer that he saw in the world of his mind who stood on bloody battlefields as the only survivor was his future self.

Pushed by circumstances, he fell into the dark side just to get more power. Now, after being cautioned by Cassandra, Rex was still ready to give anything to get more power but he consciously warned himself from going to the dark side.

To get his revenge on the Holmes family, he could never let his guard down for a moment, he could not stay complacent, he needed to work extremely hard.

Choosing the Great Forest of Elias was not just for the unconventional route that it presented, it was also for the great training opportunity that it presented.

Here, Rex had more than enough powerful beasts to train with and constantly push himself to the limits.

This was his training ground for the nearest future, he was ready to ride the waves of the wild and master them.

"Grey, follow me let us go on a hunt".

After giving his transformed beast orders, Rex flapped his wings and disappeared into the night as the Great Forest of Elias welcomed newcomers.

…

Dark mist covered a certain region of the forest in the night as a barely visible silhouette rapidly pursued 3 mystic Red Foxes in the dark of the night.

Once Grey closed the distance enough, the dark mist that he moved on covered the 3 Red Foxes as their vision was obstructed. In their panic, Grey attacked as he activated his Poison Throw skill, unleashing a barrage of poison.

Pushed to the corner, the Red Foxes let go of all misgivings as they decided to give their all for a final struggle. Before their red fire could fully materialize, the humanoid bat who hovered above their heads descended.

[You have activated skill: Sound Manipulation!]

[You have activated skill: Steel Claws!]

Once they were hit by the sound waves, the Red Foxes bled but what affected them the most was fear as Rex's Fear Apostle passive ability triggered.

Petrified by fear, this made them easy kills to Rex as he descended and ripped them to shreds with his steel claws, he showed no mercy.

[You have killed a Basic Mystic Beast: Red Fox!]

[You have gained 3 mystic energy points!]

[You have killed…]

Once the Red Foxes were dead, Rex led Grey as they located the intermediate mystic Cobra that he already sighted from afar hiding amidst the grass. Once the Cobra discovered that it was found, it retaliated.

Grey rushed to the front as he clashed with the massive Cobra. The Cobra's poison was deadly, but so was Grey's poison as an epic clash started.

As for Rex, he flew into the sky before decisively diving back down to gather momentum as he stabbed Berserker straight through the Cobra's massive body.

The massive Cobra hissed in pain and focused on him but Rex was prepared for it. Rex showed his grounded sword skills again as he dueled against the much more massive beast, holding it to a standstill and even getting the advantage.

With both Rex and his Dark Mist Spider fighting together, the Cobra could only delay the inevitable as it finally succumbed after trying without success to escape the grasp of the 2 maniacal demons.

[You have killed an Intermediate Mystic Beast: King Cobra!]

[You have gained 24 mystic energy points!]

[You have gained a mystic stone!]

After killing the first intermediate mystic beast, the burning fire in Rex's eyes to fight barely faded as he actively started looking for more of them.

For the rest of the night, while he was at his peak state while traveling, he would use the beasts of the forests to train himself to develop his powers.

He was determined to get strong by crook or hook.
