Chapter 25: The city has changed
Bloodreign remained silent for a bit, and then she spoke up. "What rumors have you been listening to? You need to be at least a Blood Lord to turn someone into a vampire."
Damon nodded. He already knew this but he was still very nervous. He ran a hand through his hair, eyes locked on the crimson-soaked earth at his feet. This was good. There shouldn't be any more problems from that woman. Clearly, she doesn't remember anything and there shouldn't be any changes in her body.
Now the only other question was how long could he go without blood.
He swiped away the bunch of system notifications that informed him about the experience points gained for killing the rabid hounds along with the couple of agility and strength stat points.
They had also given him another skill.
[Berserk Instinct - Passive]
Berserk Instinct: When your bloodlust reaches a critical threshold, your physical stats increase by 20% for a short duration. Duration scales with kill count. Warning: Mental clarity may be compromised during activation.
This was the innate skill of Dire hounds which made them somewhat deadly when encountered in big packs. However, this skill was a double-edged sword as it also made the beasts extremely easy to trick and kill.
To Damon this skill could come in handy in many ways but he did not have the time to think about these things at the moment. He simply cleared all the notifications. Bloodreign was right. He needed to figure some things out in the game world before everything fell apart in the real world.
