893: Kill him!

Kill him!

Unbeknownst to Liam… the moment he blasted the vampire lord's body, Elmis, the little boy suddenly shuddered. A wisp of thick, dark crimson blood appeared out of nowhere and swirled around him before entering his body and disappearing.  2

"He is dead?" Elmis immediately stood up. His crimson eyes became so cold with anger that he completely crumpled up the magazine that he had been diligently studying all day.

"HOW!" He howled!

"This cannot be happening!"

Elmis then, without hesitance, closed his eyes and reached out to the last two of the five vampire lords he had created. "GO! Go to the area, and kill that damned weasel! I need him slaughtered before he finds out about that."

He still did not know how this weakling somehow wormed his way and killed all of his vessels, but he needed to die now! 

Otherwise, only more and more attention would be brought to the thing that he was trying to keep hidden.

"KILL HIM! NOW!" Elmis howled.

All the demons around him gulped in fear as they were quite familiar with the wrath of their young lord. Whoever it was who had angered him was definitely dead!

Meanwhile…

Liam looked around at the place where he was currently in.

Unlike the other vampire lords, this vampire lord had always been confined to this particular spot without moving here or there. At least from the information he had gathered from the military base and also from what he had seen so far, this was the case.

Based on this, the military general had come to the conclusion that the vampire lord was guarding something. Liam also couldn't help but jump to the same conclusion. There wasn't much else that could explain the odd behavior.

So there was potentially a treasure somewhere around here. However, Liam was too tired to look for it at the moment. He felt too weak even to summon his soul minions. 

His intuition told him that he shouldn't do this at the moment. All of his body, soul, mana core, and mind were still recovering.

This left the white fox, who was still quite energetic.

"Luna, can you run around and see if there is anything valuable around here?" Liam only barely finished asking when abruptly, another little thing as well popped out from within him.

Violet showed up!

Growl!

And just like that, his request somehow turned into a competition as both the rabbit and the fox, who was still lugging around Liam wherever she went, started tearing the whole place apart from top to bottom.

But how could Luna keep up with the rabbit who might as well be an exclusive magical treasure-hunting maniac?!

In a jiffy, Violet arrived at a small nook in the place. The whole spot had several hollow layers one after the other, and the rabbit burrowed straight through it all and reached the main location of the 'treasure'.

After that, she grabbed the thing and turned to run back to Liam when Luna growled, standing right behind her.

The white fox was a bit angry. First, she was not able to help Liam with the fight, and now this rabbit had beaten her to find the treasure. This was a bad day!

Growl! Luna threateningly lifted her paw at the rabbit, asking the little thing not to do anything to the treasure and to drop it and leave.

Chik? The rabbit innocently cocked its head to the side and then dropped the thing in its mouth right next to Liam before once again disappearing into him like always.

"Hmph! That's right!" Luna scoffed.

Liam was too tired to intervene in this affair and silently gazed at the small thing that was beside him. 

Hmmm? His forehead creased as he stared at it for a few seconds, but he had no idea what the thing was. He even used [Inspect] and got nothing.

Well, something had to be there for him to get something in the first place. The thing in front of him was more like a breadcrumb, just slightly bigger in size. Perhaps a half-eaten nut of some kind?

Liam was puzzled, but he knew that this had to be the treasure here. 

There was no doubt about that. The little rabbit's track record was spotless, and since she had shown up and picked this one, this had to be the treasure.

While he was trying to figure out what he was dealing with, suddenly Luna started sniffing the stale air around them like a dog.

She then unexpectedly revealed an excited grin as she pounced toward something and landed softly. "Master!" She even dropped Liam abruptly from her back.

"Huh?" Liam was confused as to what was happening when his eyes fell upon a small puddle of water.

"Master! Drink this! Kyuuuu!" Luna was also talking about the same thing as she nudged him closer to the puddle. She went as far as to scoop up some water with her paw and let it drip into Liam's mouth.

"Wait. Wait. I will drink it myself." Liam helplessly smiled as he licked the couple drops of the puddle water that was smeared on his lips and mouth.

However, just as he did that… his face immediately changed. He quickly sat up straight and scooped up some more of the puddle water by himself, and drank it in hurry.

As soon as he did that, once again, his eyes widened in shock. His injuries were rapidly healing up! 

Every single bit of the liquid that went down his throat was warm and nourishing, and when it hit his stomach, it spread like hot lava across his body, burning through everything. 

But after the pain came relief. His body started healing at an incredibly rapid rate!

And it was not just his body. His mind, soul, and mana core also started feeling more stable. 

It was as if he was already back to his previous state, and all the side effects of using the overpowered skill had completely disappeared!
