Aldritch quickly converted the blood to BP, he converted 1,010 to get 101 BP.
First of all, he increased all his stats apart from the intelligence stat to 5, bringing his BP to 93.
'That should do it for now, I guess.'
"System, how much will I need to upgrade one of my racial skills to the next level?'
[The amount required differs from skill to skill, but it is an average number of 100 BP]
'Damn, so I can't even do that? Then how much will I need to increase my evolution?'
[You are a blooded vampire now, so to increase your rank to become a Vampire Noble, you will need 10,000 BP]
"DAMN!" Aldritch couldn't stop himself from the surprise. It was too much, the price for power really wasn't that easy…
'This is too much… how many people will I have to kill to amass that amount of blood?' This was also because he had learnt that not every creature's blood was the same, some would give more BP and others less. For this in particular, it had its own rank.
Non intelligent animals and creatures like cattle, dogs, elephants, and the likes would mostly convert for 100:1, others like humans and monsters alongside other such races like elves, dwarves, and the like would convert for the normal 10:1 that Aldritch was used to, then legendary races like dragons and races of that class were capable of converting for 1:1 or even 1:10!
As for the vampire ranks, it was like this.
[Strength Ranking]
Fledgling
Blood Sucker
Blooded Vampire
Vampire Noble
Vampire Lord
Ancestral Vampire
Progenitor
The Origin
Each stage was a whole new realm of power and abilities that could be unlocked. Luckily, Aldritched had been reincarnated as a Blooded Vampire, so he was already well off and had unlocked three racial skill also, which was normal. Vampires grew stronger as they aged, just like most powerful races like some dragon races.
Aldricth however, had a means to bypass that and not having to wait so long for age and talent. The only roadblock in this cheat of his was the amount of BP required.
'Then again, I might be in the wrong world, since this one only has goblins and ogres as monsters.' Aldritch searched his memory to find out if there was other information, but nothing came to mind. He former body owner was really not someone reliable.
Since Lina had mentioned them coming from another world through a portal, he had already made a mental note to enquire more about this other world and how to go there. It seemed like that was where he needed to be, not here.
'Warworld, huh? That can wait…'
Aldritch continued and increased all his stats to 10, bringing his BP down to 47, then he increased strength and agility to 12 and dexterity to 11, bringing his BP to 27. He stopped there, since he couldn't tell what he needed the most, a strong body, or high SP. Until he was sure, he didn't want to waste his BP.

One thing Aldritch noticed was that even though he added points to his vitality, there was no change to his HP bar that was practically none existent
He wasn't bordered though, after all, he should be able to regenerate as a vampire.
The next day, Aldritch quickly saw that his plan would not work, since most of the goblins were yet to recover from the mass loss of blood… which he caused.
. .69 hours later. .
Aldritch woke up with more than enough energy in his body and a feeling of being able to outpace a world Olympian runner.
"…"
"The surge of strength, the invincible feeling… It's all an illusion… I'm still weak. Aldritch said to himself as he looked at his rank which was still ordinary." Aldritch almost got sad looking at the panel before him.
This motivated him to set a bigger goal, just these goblins were naturally not enough, he needed something better, a stronger creature with better bloodline. For the time being, the only other creatures were ogres and humans. Even then, he couldn't go solo and take on the role of a blood sucker.
Theoretically, partnered with his mind control skills, he should be able to easily drink the blood of any human, or at least most, but that was too risky. In practical sense, there were a lot of things that could go wrong.
'That's exactly why I need this goblin army…'.
It would have been far easier if he could just create a large army, but with his racial rank at the moment, that wasn't possible.
'I also want to increase my rank and evolution, but the BP required for that is just too much.' Alas, the road to power wasn't easy at all.
After ordering for a makeshift couch to be created for him so he would be carried and every other thing was prepared, it was time to leave.
'I just hope it is a safe trip. However, if anything is to come up, I have Lina and the rest of the goblins on the ready to sacrifice their lives for me, so it shouldn't be too dangerous. If even that fails, I still have my skills.' With that, Aldritch made Lina bring all the goblins together for them to depart.
