The Extra's Indifference

The acidic black substance was powerful enough to harm my transformed skin, muscles and bones. Hence I thought that it would be best to take some samples and store them into my subspace.

Currently I didn't have any use for it but I was sure that I could find something for it. On the worst case scenario, I would just drink it to kill myself, which was a huge plus for me to this black liquid.

That is why, I lowered my dagger and took a few slow steps back to not wake these abominations up.

Then I looked under the pile of the grayish fur and snake skins. And on the contrary to my expectations, there was really something in there.

A fist sized, deep blue crystal ball that shines lightly. A mana core of high [B] rank mana fiend, probably from a mana monster.

'Well, would you look at this? I found a high quality mana core without fighting against a troublesome opponent.' I thought and the crystal ball inside my hand disappeared into my subspace.

'I should go back and think more about what I should do right now.' I thought and got out of the primitive room of the werewolf and snake couple and covered the entrance with ice. Though it was weak as I didn't have much mana.

Then I went back to the place where I left the corpse of Aria and sat down on her side.

"What should I do, Aria? Do you have something in your mind?" I asked it loud and waited for Aria's answer, which came after a second or 2.

>> You can purify and absorb the mana core of the snake mana beast and the mana core you have found a moment ago.<<

"Well, I forgot about absorbing them." I said and took out the mana cores from my subspace.

Then I purified them and absorbed them respectively, which in return made my mana quality [B] rank and mana quantity [B-], as for the mana control, it was still the same. Which was my mistake as I didn't train my mana control for some time.

Well, I didn't have time for it, so I was relying on the fact that it would improve while I am fighting against strong opponents as they force me to my limits.

After absorbing the mana cores, I decided to activate the [Records of Souls] enchantment of the Silent Scream of the Souls as I thought that I should know more about this enchantment.

Anyway, I activated the enchantment as whitish light came from the transparent ball on the ring.

Then the light flew through my eyes and I experienced something different, something really important.

I literally lived through the life of Aria. I learned about her childhood and her parents, her siblings that died by the bandits.

Her life when she lived in slums, improving her skills and mana crystals with revenge burned inside her.

And the first time she saw my face and my act. I even felt Aria's feeling and it was strange as there was love inside of her when I touched her bare body, which was on the operation table.

And I saw her moments about the prophet and his prophecy about Aria, and Aria's greatest wish.

The prophecy was simple as all she needed was to endure my devilish tricks, then her greatest wish would come through in time.

And her greatest wish too was simple, it was to be loved by someone.

It was kind of funny as I even smiled after seeing her memories. Probably the emotions I felt were because of the memories I lived through. Which was temporary.

Well, what was strange was that she would be loved as she endured my devil is tricks.

'Will I love her after I lift my curse?' I thought and nodded my head internally.

It was highly possible but I decided to put this on the corner of my mind for the time being.

Then I took out the undead little girl's corpse from my subspace and put it on the ground.

After that I took out my torture tools and began to carve runes on this little girl's body.

It was time to modify this corpse of the little girl.

Hence I began to think about vampire's traits.

'Should I carve runes on canine teeths, so that they can grow in length and suck blood? Or should they suck life energy instead of blood as their nourishment? It is a good idea and if I am successful with that, I wouldn't need to add stomach and intestines. But a reproduction organ is a must. Or else how would they reproduce and make more vampires.'

'Should i add polymorph ability, so that they can polymorph to bat? It is pretty good idea but i don't know how to do it. I should analyze a dragon when they polymorph.' Transforming to a small animal like a bat would be good for spying and observation, so I thought it was a good idea.

'Should I make them long lived or immortal? Regeneration ability is a must for a vampire, i should add this too but how can i do this? Should I carve passive high level regeneration magic?'

I carved every rune I knew which was sucking blood that I carved on her canine teeth and low level regeneration on her skin and bones. I couldn't carve in her muscles as they were too separate to carve it with ease.

"Do you mind if you take this body as yours, Aria? You don't have to be worried about being a little girl as I will add transformation ability. So that you can change your shape" I said it out loud.

>> I don't mind as long as I can be my old self.<< Aria said to my mind with her usual monotonous tone.

"Well, you will be able to do that." I said and continued to carve the runed on the undead little girls body without caring the bloody scent
