Return of the Sword God-Rank Civil Servant novel Chapter 618

When his darkened vision returned, what entered his sight was a world blanketed in darkness everywhere.

That did not mean it was a void.

The solid ground beneath his feet and the moon floating overhead clearly showed this place was another world.

[ Due to the effect of Original Vampir, you are not affected by darkness restriction effects. ]

His vision was secured.

It was an effect produced by Vampire Blood.

And in addition—

[ You are receiving moonlight. ]

[ The Rune of the Moon reacts. ]

[ The Power of the Moon is activated. ]

[ You receive the Blessing of the Moon. ]

[ All stats increase by 2%. ]

[ All recovery abilities increase by 2%. ]

[ Ice attribute is activated. ]

[ Darkness attribute is activated. ]

Due to the trait effect of the Sun-Moon Body, the Rune of the Moon activated and granted additional effects.

‘So that moon must contain magical power.’

An ordinary moon would never produce these kinds of effects.

Only a special moon infused with magical power could trigger them.

Because of that, it really felt like he had properly arrived at the correct place for the Vampire Blood Trait Quest.

Before summoning his subordinates, Su-ho checked the information regarding the fourth authority engraved into Vampire Blood.

As he did, several things caught his attention.

[ High Blood ]

Rank : S# The fourth authority of the awakened Vampire Blood and the High Blood of Levan de Nosferatu.

# Vampires are born with their ranks predetermined. High Blood are chosen beings that only those of the highest class may possess.

# Vampires possessing High Blood do not take damage from ordinary sunlight, silver, holy water, crosses, or garlic.

# Vampires possessing High Blood can dominate lower-ranked vampires through sheer power.

# Vampires possessing High Blood possess the strongest grade of power among identical bloodline techniques.

# Having inherited the blood of a true High Blood, all vampire traits have been further strengthened.

# By inheriting the blood of High Blood, your blood itself has taken on the nature of High Blood.

[ Price of Power ]

Rank : S# One of the possessed abilities of Levan de Nosferatu, the fourth authority of awakened Vampire Blood.

# Through a transaction with Levan de Nosferatu, you obtained his High Blood.

# Therefore, several conditions are attached to the use of Levan de Nosferatu’s High Blood.

# The first condition: against vampires who believe the prophecy and oppress or despise him, the Rage effect is additionally applied, increasing abilities by 20%, while instinctively allowing the detection of High Blood.

# The second condition: if you are defeated by, submit to, or sympathize with the prophecy upheld by the vampires who oppress and despise him, you will lose all Vampire Blood traits due to Levan de Nosferatu’s curse.

# The third condition will be revealed once all High Blood vampires are killed.

The third condition attached to Price of Power.

What could it be?

Most likely, it referred to the final ability hidden within the Vampire Blood contained in Price of Power.

To summarize, this mission was about killing all High Blood.

‘And if I lose, I lose everything.’

An all-or-nothing situation.

Su-ho spoke briefly.

“Come out.”

“We answer your command.”

At Su-ho’s order, four figures emerged.

The mutt Roynan, and Shuraia, Seorio, and Periotin, who had once served him.

The moment they arrived here, they instinctively realized this was the world they had once lived in, and their hearts swelled.

Su-ho asked,

“Mutt.”

“Yes, Master.”

“Where is this place?”

“Yes, this place is known as Noctarion.”

“Noctarion?”

“Yes. Noctarion Empire is the name of the world where we live.”

“I see.”

Just as Roynan said.

Noctarion was the name of the sole empire existing in the world inhabited by vampires carrying Vampire Blood.

‘Calling it an empire when there’s only one country is pretty ridiculous.’

But what did that matter?

If they wanted to call it that, then fine.

Su-ho continued.

“Alright. Then where exactly are we within Noctarion?”

“This is...”

Roynan examined the surroundings before narrowing his brow.

“Judging by the smell of lowly blood, I believe this is Lowfield, outside the Iron Line.”

“Lowfield?”

“To explain simply, the Noctarion Empire is backed against a massive crimson mountain range called Red Maria...”

A long explanation followed.

Put simply, the structure was like this:

Red Maria → Middle Town → First Line → First Town → Second Line → Second Town → Third Line → Third Town → Iron Line → Lowfield

Among them, the temple existed in Middle Town.

The royal palace stood in First Town.

Second Town housed the Noble Palace for aristocratic vampires.

Third Town was where the Normal class and other lower classes lived.

Lowfield was literally the outdoors.

“Then where was Helldown located?”

“Helldown was built alone, quite far away from Noctarion.”
