Vampire Overlord System in the Apocalypse

Chapter 53 - Exhilarating Battle! Emerald VS Noah!



-----

Emerald, Cathina, and the rest of their party of five appeared in front of Noah\'s group, intending to kill them.

From what Noah knew about Emerald, he was part of the Crystal Family, a family of \'knights\' or \'paladins\' that protected other aristocrat families.

Emerald was also named as \'Second Generation\' by other adults, as he was born from two awakened individuals, inheriting part of their powers, and acquiring his own power when born as a baby.

Afterward, he awakened a second Skill, Danger Detection.

There was not uncommon for babies of this age to be born with powers, and whenever two awakened had a child, such chances increased.

Noah predicted that in the future, more and more humans would be born with special abilities, even stronger than those that awakened had, and as they acquired new ones through their natural awakening by the system, stronger humans would be born as the generations went by.

Emerald was already strong and had acquired a very unique A-Rank Skill when he was born, a combination of both of his parent\'s awakened Skills, which let him freely generate and manipulate jewels.

These jewels could be made into sharp objects and easily impale to death enemies, and as Emerald was born with such ability since he was one-year-old that he had been practicing it, his masterfulness over it was outstanding.

Even more, with his Danger Detection Skill, he was also able to detect danger, as if it were some kind of foresight ability, being capable of evading deadly attacks in time.

This coupled with his amazing Skill that can be both offensive and defensive, he was a complete powerhouse.

And because he had been given Attribute Value Cores since a young age, he was already an E-Rank, on his way to D-Rank…

Noah knew that this man was an incredible threat.

Yet, he knew that there was a chance of winning.

And decided to fight him.

He quickly analyzed the other students.

Two of them seemed like mage-type awakened of upper F-Rank, with stats averaging 60.

There was a healer with stats averaging at 50.

And Cathina, the small girl at Emerald\'s side was a strong physical fighter, being a beginner E-Rank, with stats averaging 70, according to what Noah recalled after investigating about his classmates through those months where he was being bullied and had nothing to do than study.

He had grown interested in the amazingly powerful students at his side and investigated what they were capable of through the School\'s library and the internet, as there was a Hunter Database where every hunter was registered, finding them by their names was not hard.

Of course, they did not even know that Noah was so well versed about their capabilities, and he quickly communicated this alongside his strategies to his group.

"Wait, Noah, you can\'t possibly fight him alone! Why are we even here then?!" asked Arthur.

"To take care of the rest, I wouldn\'t be able to fight him leisurely if you don\'t take care of Cathina and the other three… Make sure to kill the Healer as soon as possible," said Noah.

"Very well, Noah-sama," said Iris.

"…Make sure to not die, Master," said Timassa.

"It is not within my plans to die today, now, go!" said Noah, as Emerald and his group were surprised by how fast the vampires decided what to do by simply glancing at each other and nodding!

"Could they have some kind of Telepathy Skill?!" thought Emerald, gnashing his teeth as he quickly generated three one-meter-long spears made of green, blue, and red jewels, each one then began to exude a different element aura, wind, ice, and fire!

Noah glanced at Emerald with admiration over his amazing power.

"Elemental Jewel Creation does not only let him create jewels out of thin air and control them freely over the air, but it also let him generate other elements depending on the color of the jewels… green is wind, blue is ice, and red is fire! I am pretty sure that he can also create white and black jewels for the light and dark elements! This bastard got an amazing cheat, doesn\'t he?" thought Noah, darting straight towards Emerald!

"Do you think that you can evade my attacks, subhuman?" asked Emerald rather angered by Noah\'s boldness, firing the three spears of elemental jewels towards him!

Flash! Flash! Flash!

"I am not the same as before… By using my Champion\'s Great Perseverance, and Blood Flow Acceleration, my stats increase, and you and I are not so different Emerald!" thought Noah, smiling as his attribute values began to increase by the use of his buffing Skills!

His senses sharpened, his speed became faster, and his flexibility increased!

Emerald glanced with disbelief as the spears he shot at Noah was evaded by him without any issue!

Such spears shot at a speed that should be the same as a bullet!

"What?! This monster has grown too strong already!" thought Emerald, trying to generate a new projectile, but being greeted by Noah\'s one!

Noah opened a wound on his wrist, which he used to manipulate the blood inside of his blood vessels, converting it into deadly poison through Poisonous Blood, and shaping it into crystallized blood projectiles in the shape of spears and blades through Blood Projectile!

"You\'re not so unique either!" thought Noah, attacking Emerald with the same type of attacks he used!

"T-Tch!"

Emerald gnashed his teeth, as the three projectiles reached him!

Clash! Clash! Clash!

Noah heard a strange sound that was not Emerald\'s flesh being torn apart, noticing that Emerald had generated a large wall made of brown-colored jewels!

"He\'s good… Brown jewels are most likely earth element-based… which is a good element for defense…" thought Noah, darting into the air, and immediately trying to run over the wall, reaching Emerald who was gasping for air due to a large amount of energy he had to use to generate the wall!

Noah began to accumulate a large amount of blood in front of his chest, as he jumped towards Emerald, noticing his stupidly surprised face!

"Ah! Y-You\'re too fast!" roared Emerald, as he had Noah right in front of his face, Noah\'s crimson claws nearing his neck and releasing several long-ranged, crimson-colored slashing attacks, that rained over his body!

Slash! Slash! Slash!

Emerald took over the damage, as he began to generate more jewels!

"However, it is foolish to think that because you\'re close to me, you will achieve victory!" roared Emerald, as suddenly, several needle-sized, red-colored jewel projectiles flew towards Noah, impaling his entire body, as flesh was slashed, and his blood splashed out!

"Nnngh…!"

"This is your end! Detonation!" laughed Emerald, as suddenly, Noah\'s entire body detonated into an explosion of fire, his entire body falling apart!

BOOM!

Noah was… dead!
