A white line shines in the darkness of Krishna's consciousness and a woman descends from the sky akin to the angels.
The only difference was the aura filled with malice that could be felt oozing out of her.
fuusssshhhhhh step step step
reddish smoke emerges and flowers outwards as the woman lands and steps forward, each step made Krishna feel safe while the old man was scared out of his wits.
"Don't worry my child I will keep you safe."
'like daughter like mother' Thought Krishna
"Now as for you, HOW DARE YOU EVEN TRY TO LAY A FINGER ON HIM!!"
She raises her hands as blood-red chains bind the man to a stake. Then she walks up to him and...
slap slap slap slap slap slap slap slap slap slap slap slap
with one hand she gives the old man slaps left right till his cheeks are swollen in a cartoonish way.
[oof]
'oof'
oof
'I really hope she is on my side I do not wish to be her enemy'
15 minutes is the approx time that she took to practically humiliate the old man tied to the stake
"ok now that my anger has calmed"
she waves her hand and the old man is free again and simply lying on the floor.
"Dear grandson do make sure to kill this lowlife. It is my policy to not pamper the lower generation too much and if you are really my grandson you should know who would be sad if he actually won your body due to your foolishness of sparing him"
"yes Miss thank you for your help but who are you?? I mean I know you say you are my grandma but"
"Ahh I see a reincarnation hmmm since you have memories of the precious life too the bloodline memories are suppressed... Well you can just take my word for it I did save your life just now did I not"
well it was not that Krishna could not tell since he could see her status screen
\\
Name: Rory Mercury
race: High human
Cultivation: mortal (sealed)
Mana: 40,000
Skills-> sealed
stats~
relationship -> 40
//
but she was literally Rory mercury from GATE!!.... like the apostle and now Krishna was left wondering if he was lucky or not. She is literally a demi-god but she is also a 900+ year-old grandma? she seems like a 20 year old girl.
She was wearing a black gothic dress as depicted in the anime the only difference being she did not have her halberd.
'C cups.... nice'
"child you can admire me later on for now deal with the old man"
Krishna was a 20-year-old virgin weeb in his past life so dealing with beautiful women was not really his forte and any interaction will make him flustered for now.
'o..ok grandmother'
"fufufu well I will make a lady killer out of you now that I am awake."
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
Krishna then looks at the old man who was going to take everything from him and most probably would have lived as him for the rest of the time and revived his clan .....even turned his mother.
crack
it felt as if the reality itself had cracked but actually, it was just Krishna's personality or more like his thoughts and feelings that had opened up.
Krishna walks up to the old man and just loses it
punch punch punch punch punch punch punch punch
he kept punching his face till it was nothing other than a mush of flesh and bones. He had a cold glint in his eyes while a faint smile on his face this is who Krishna was a cold man to the world yet the warmest of person to his loved ones.
after a certain amount of punches, the old man just broke into particles of light and disappeared.
[ding! congratulation host for killing a 700-year-old vampire soul you have received 2500 exp. this will be stored since your body is not ready for any sort of power boosts but you can use exp to level up the summons.]
"Good work Krishna now go ahead and call me big sis Rory"
'Ammm is that necessary'
"do you wish for my assistance in safeguarding your consciousness"
'*sigh* big sis Rory thank you for your help.'
"fufufu no worries dear that is the duty of a grandparent and now to spoil you a little here"
she proceeds to tap his forehead with a finger and a technique for mental defense enters his mind.
\\
Skill: 'My mind is a fortress.'
Allows the user to create shields around his consciousness to stop or at least delay an invader.
//
"This is not a very powerful technique but it will allow you to survive till I arrive. Now off you go I brought you here to meet you and show you this valuable lesson, I hope you learned something."
'yes thank you for your teachings'
Krishna opened his eyes and found himself in the real world next to a sleeping Hanako
'sigh Grandpa saved me this time but I need to find a way to counterattack mental attacks.'
'system will the mental defense technique work as a defense against a summon?'
[yes, it will host]
'ok then let's add this to the daily grind'
******************
| 7 YEARS LATER |
{Hanako's room}
time passed days to months to years and like this 7 years passed by in a flash. No exciting or new thing happen other than when he grew 4 year old the powerups that had stacked up started to assimilate into his body due to which it grew exponentially so he now had a body of an 8-year-old at 4 year of age.
In 5th year of Krishna's living in this world he had started physical training under the teaching of his grandma and the system's quest as any other protagonist but what was different was that he pulled his mother and Alice into it.
Alice was fine but Hanako struggled to complete the training each day for a month after which she was able to complete it properly. This training helped all three of them immensely.
Krishna now had a body that looked like that of a 14-year-old while he was still 8 years of age. He had stopped aging on his 7th birthday, and that was when the system had told him that he had once again hit the limit of a teenage body so the powerups were once again getting stacked and kept aside.
Today was a normal day he had just finished his morning training with Mother and Alice. He was going to take a bath just as a message popped up but this time in a red screen
\\
QUESTS FROM VARIOUS GODS HAVE APPEARED!!
//
\\
Welcome to the Vampire system!
dungeons are about to appear all around the world. A few humans have been chosen to fight them and have been given special powers to do so. These chosen ones will usher humanity into a new era but the danger that these people must face is not small so please prepare.
To help the chosen ones get accustomed to dungeons and the system we have graciously sent the system to you humans a few years early!!
Who are we? We are vampires obviously! you guys did not think we just existed in fantasy land, did you? Yes, vampires are real and no you cannot tell about vampires actually existing to anyone who does not have a system yet.
Quests will be issued and those who do those quests will be awarded with exp and items. Those who do exceptionally will get blood points which you can use to get yourself converted into a vampire!! which would make you immortal and vampires grow stronger naturally without training which means you will stand on the top of humanity so make sure to try your best to become a vampire before the dungeons appear.
//
this message alone would have been weird but there were many others from gods of different mythologies, werewolves, yokai, witches, and many many more.
After all, these screens popped up another message on a black screen came into view
\\
Chosen one, various races have shown interest in taking you under their wing Which 'QUEST FROM GOD' will you choose
//
'what is happening ?'
after collecting his thoughts he made a choice
'NONE! I already have a system and either way there is no pure human system and the end game of every other system seems to change the species of the human into either a demi or a full-blown member of the species that you chose the system of.'
[host even if you chose the other system I can simply absorb it since I am a high-tier system and have leveled up twice in the past 8 years so if you wish for it you can take another system.]
'Naah you are more than enough for me..... I may sometimes look like a pervert but I am in fact a very loyal guy to my family and you dear system are the core member of my family.'
[ahem.....alright then....ah yes there was a boon you received]
\\
Blessing: Safety of a loved one
Effect: you will always know the status and the location of the people you designate as loved ones in your heart.
//
'who the hell is giving me these is there no way to know??'
[expert level strength and system has to be level 5 if you wish to know who the curses and the blessings are from]
'ok will tackle it when it comes, for now I need to grow exponentially stronger and to do that I hav'
cutting his thought the system's beautiful feminine voice was heard by Krishna.
[host the progenitor's blood drop has reacted to your decision of remaining a human! It wishes to grant you the progenitor bloodline.]
