Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn As A Vampire Dragon With a System

-----

Chaos began to consume the wailing souls of the fallen, uncaring if they were or not deserving of such an end. ​​

Their cries seemed like nothing to Chaos. He continued to slurp them like noodles.

He continued to devour the souls without stopping, after some time, he ate them all.

It seemed that the Unique Skill: All Consumption, had the power to even devour souls without any problems.

He felt, however, that the souls he ate didn't directly land inside his stomach or something, but… it was as if he had a stomach inside his very soul, and that's where they were stored and digested.

The soul melted into pure soul energy and fused with his soul slowly, as his soul started to blaze with dark colors, growing bigger and stronger by increasing its density.

He felt like his entire soul was blazing with more energy than before, growing bigger and bigger.

He also felt more relieved, somehow. Chaos wondered if this had to do with his soul growing bigger by eating souls.

When he finished eating everything, he even felt like he gained some stats… It was quite surprising, honestly.

Ding!

[You learned the following Skills]

[Soul Eater]

[Soul Manipulation]

[Soul Materialization]

[Enhanced Soul Strength]

…

He even got four Skills by eating all these souls! He felt surprised, he didn't expect this to happen either.

[Soul Eater]: Grants the ability to eat souls with ease and absorb their density and mass as soul energy for the nourishment of the soul. Special souls infused with power can also give other types of powers.

[Soul Manipulation]: Grants the ability to manipulate the user's soul to an extent, limited by soul strength.

[Soul Materialization]: Grants the ability to materialize your soul and use it to attack, but by attacking, your soul also loses density.

[Enhanced Soul Strength]: Permanently enhances the strength of your soul by 5%.

…

"I see. Interesting, so I can just do all of that… My soul does feel stronger… Thank you, everyone, I really appreciate it. Now I can… oh," said Chaos, as he began to manipulate his soul, and it suddenly worked easier than he had expected, as a gigantic black tentacle made of ethereal energy came out of his hand.

Unlike the soul he ate, which were mostly of a white and transparent color, Chaos's soul was… pitch black and seemed to release a bit of black fog as he moved it around.

Fascinated by this discovery, he began to move his soul around some more, generating more tentacles which he shaped as many arms as possible, which moved around frantically, surprising many.

"Maybe I could use this to fight even better… But I consume soul density, which means a lot of miasma and mana too… Perhaps not yet until it grows stronger," thought Chaos, as he quickly brought back his soul inside of his body and he rested over his throne.

"Amazing my lord, your soul has grown stronger! Perhaps you won't feel as tired now whenever you spend too much mana and miasma from your soul," said Abyss.

"You're right, it might be different now… But I don't think that was enough, my soul seems way too big, I need more souls and bigger ones," said Chaos.

"Don't worry, my lord. We shall leave the Undead Team in the task of gathering souls every day for your nourishment, you can just sit tight and enjoy your life of relaxation," said Belphegor.

"Ah… Thanks. But no, I can't sit there all the time, I have to move on and explore more, and also grow stronger. Even if I can grow stronger with what you bring me, that will only… be detrimental to my growth," said Chaos.

"Hmm… My lord is right, I suppose we might be able to go to the dungeon you went to a few days ago?" asked Dura.

"Yes, that's what I have been thinking, but we can bring more people this time, so all of you can also gain more essence and power while slaying the beasts, such as Abyss and Belphegor," said Chaos.

"Sounds like an excellent idea, my lord!" said Jack, as his long wooden body released cracking sounds eerily.

Suddenly, as Chaos was thinking what else to do, the Wendigo he had summoned some time, ago, which now had the power to take the form of a beautiful beast-kin-like girl with goat legs, fluffy white hair, pale-white-skin, and crimson eyes shining eerily beneath her skull-mask, named Yuki, rushed at him.

"Master, I had almost forgotten to tell you something…" she sighed.

"Oh? Yuki, right? What is it?" asked Chaos.

"Well… It is complicated… T-There's a hole outside," said Yuki.

Chaos furrowed his eyebrows.

"A… hole? A monster came out of it? I've seen worms coming out of big holes-"

"N-No! That's not it, my lord… Well, it is weird, not even my team could understand what it was, but the hole was absorbing a lot of the miasma of the environment, perhaps this is why the monsters had stopped their charge as much, it is as if this hole is filtering out the excess miasma… Though I am sure that the monsters might come back in the near future," said Yuki. She was now able to talk quite eloquently.

Lilith and Ifrit also showed up at her side, as they were with her when she found it.

"Indeed, my lord. I believe this might be something that Yuki doesn't really know…" said Lilith.

"Yeah, it's a dungeon!" said Ifrit.

"Eh? A Dungeon?" asked Chaos.

Everyone seemed in disbelief… Dungeons usually took thousands of years to form. Yet just two days ago that hole wasn't there… it emerged right after Chaos went to sleep, and it was in the backyard of the castle to boot.

"A Dungeon… how odd. My lord, perhaps… you created a dungeon out of the overaccumulation of miasma you produce!" said Belphegor, feeling enlightened.

"Dungeon… Did I create a Dungeon? I can do that?" asked Chaos in disbelief.

"Indeed… It is as Belphegor said, I can't find other reason," said Lilith.

"Ah…"

Chaos didn't know what to think…
