Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

-----

The next morning came in a flash, as I woke up rather refreshed. This time the trio wasn't wrapping themselves around me and I had some free space to slid away from their grasp. The first thing that greeted my sight as I opened the windows for the cold and refreshing wind to come from the outside was a cloud of darkness, materializing right above me, sitting above the rooftop.

"Master." The entity spoke.

"So you're returned, Arka." I said. "Tell me, how was the days you spent spying these people?"

"Strange, if I have to say. I've noticed a few suspicious things. But nothing too outside of the norm…" He said. "I feel strange myself too. My body… Does not feel right, is this because I am a Spirit?"

"Most likely. Most of what defined your personality were your very strong instincts, which emerged from your physical body." I explained. "Now that you've lost that and became a spiritual being, you have to reform who you are, and find yourself."

"…I see." The alien seemed slightly enlightened. "Thank you for your words of wisdom. Is there some assassination I should do?"

"No assassinations for now, Arka." I chuckled. "I want you to admire the sunlight, it doesn't hurt you anymore, does it?"

"It… does not, master." He glanced into the skies.

"What do you think of the sun as it slowly arrives from the horizon? The clouds? The blue sky? The greenery surrounding us? The life?" I asked him.

"I feel uncomfortable." He admitted. "But… at the same time, it doesn't feel bad. And the sky… It is beautiful, I would say."

"You're changing, even without you realizing it." I commented. "For now, however, it is time to hunt. We'll be going to a dangerous area in a couple of hours. I'll need your assistance there."

"Very well." He nodded; I could notice his tail moving around with excitement. "I shall conceal myself in the shadows until you require my help then. I feel like I require some sleep."

"Rest well." I said, as he disappeared.

Well, slowly, he's changing. That's already a plus. I can't help but empathize with him a bit. I did feel rather similarly back then. Over time, as I was surrounded by this family, I slowly felt better with myself, and with everything. He'll get there eventually.

"Now…"

I closed my eyes and focused inside of my Spiritual Realm, I wanted to see what was happening inside for the moment. Everything looked slightly the same, except for one thing. The vampire castle interior had a giant laboratory now, and there was a Mindflayer constantly creating horrors beyond comprehension.

I materialized a spirit avatar there and greeted the man in question. He immediately panicked as he felt my presence loom behind him. His eyes directed towards me instantly. He sighed in relief, I think he thought I was some sort of phantasmal entity.

"Oh, my master! You're finally here." He laughed evilly. "Look! I've been creating all matter of aberrations for your service! You said I could take as many of the beasts living here, and I did! I've implanted my parasites into their bodies.

The metamorphosis has modified them. They're now obedient creatures! And above all, they possess potent psionic abilities." Azahuk spoke with a clearly excited voice.

"I've noticed, yes." I sighed. "However, Azahuk, your parasites are still an extension of your spiritual body, so you've simply parasitized them with a Soul Parasite Spirit, technically… However, the changes are indeed surprising. And quite amusing."

I watched in front of me. There were a dozen beasts calmly standing there. A giant bat with purple skin and black scales, its face replaced with tentacles and eyes, grotesque. An Undead wolf had the same fate, now possessing tentacles on its face, and a long tail with a head resembling a worm.

There were also strange, mutated black trees with tentacles on their entire bodies, and I also noticed a several other Undead that were also infected.

These were Spiritual Beasts that inhabit the Spiritual Realm. Their existences are caused by the Realm itself, and they also nourish it. Hunting them for materials was something I've been doing already, but if I overhunt them, no more will appear in a while, so we need to be careful.

Azahuk most likely utilized his [Mind Flayer Parasite Larvae Creation] Skill to infect them with tadpole-like larvae that the Mind Flayer use to reproduce. Usually they infect intelligent beings such as humans, which the larva slowly eats their brain until they mutate into a new tentacled monster.

"Interesting specimens…" I analyzed the monsters' power, and it was increased at least twice. They were at the very least comparable to C Rank Monsters. "However, this experiment is rather futile. It is nice that you're having fun, but my Familiars can already fulfill their roles. And even if not, I can construct golems as well."

"That's… I guess you're not wrong, master." He sighed, feeling slight dispirited. I looked at him and sighed internally. For being a ruthless brain-eating monster, he sure has soft feelings about these things. freёnovelkiss.com

"However, against the demons, nothing is set in stone. They have endless armies of billions." I said. "These monsters will come in useful without a doubt. Keep making some more, but don't let the monsters go extinct if possible."

"Oooh! Very well!" He said. "Then, when are we conquering a planet, master?"

"No planet conquering for now." I said. "But we will be raiding a mountain, and we'll kill a dragon in a couple of days. You and your beasts will join me. That dragon's prowess is more than you imagine."

"So we will slay a Divine Dragon?! Very well! Now this has my blood pumping! Kuahahaha!" Laughed the evil Mind Flayer.

"However, I do have a few tasks for you right now, Azahuk." I said with a smile, taking out of my grimoire a pile of materials and items. Mostly special ores, and also rings, bracelets, necklaces and earrings with minor enchantments and with a lot of room to be enchanted. "I want you to make me a dozen Psionic Items with varying effects and Psionic Spells."

"Psionic Powers must be very non-existent in this world…" He smiled. "Yes, I shall make the best psionic items for you, master!"

I plan to use them not only against the white dragon, but the future foes I'll have to fight, including humans themselves.
