Chapter 5 - Pinnacle of Fairytales

This is the first time i wielded a sword.. Not just an ordinary sword… but a blood sword

There I chanted the world silently… while I was gasping for air… I gritted my teeth in anger… stood up and approached the thief who stole my money

The blood sword was light… easy to handle and sharp, Made from my very own blood… there I stabbed the thief in the stomach

"Aughhhh"

The blood sword pierced through the thief body… Dropping the bundle full of silver coins… with nowhere left to go… I killed the thief this instant

Cold sweat poured through my body like a monster.. This is the first time I killed a human being

" Wait… did I kill that man… who took my money"

After she killed the thief in a dark alleyway, Eirene wounds from her chest suddenly recovered, Due to the blood sword abilities

" Huh… a strange feeling… the bleeding had stopped… is it the blood sword grants the ability to heal?"

With no hesitation, she took the money and ran at the alleyway, hoping to escape the scene… suddenly masked man appeared at the exit…. Leaving Eirene cornered

" Lady, didn't you kill my friend over there… now you must face my wrath"

" Thieves… all of you are thieves… what are you doing to this world… stealing all our belongings?"

The masked man was holding a giant axe.. Ready to attack Eirene with all his strength.. But with Eirene instincts she successfully dodged the attack

" Huh… you dodged that attack on instinct" Said by the masked thief

And suddenly… with Eirene speed surpasses the thief… She managed to slice the axe that the thief was holding… Making him vulnerable

The axe was broken into pieces, The blood sword can deal such enormous damage, Even it is made entirely of Eirene blood.

" Wait, what sword was the girl holding… A crimson red sword, resembling a sword covered in blood"

Suddenly, Eirene felt that her body is getting weaker every second when she wields her blood sword

" Ugh… am I getting weaker?, is my mana from my body draining?"

Then, Eirene understands the side effects of the blood sword .. The longer she used the sword… the more mana will drain from her body

Ever since then… she learn to be cautious

Upon learning this… she needed to defeat the masked thief this instant… so she sprinted towards the thief direction and pierced the body

" Ahhh.. this sword that the girl was wielding… so sharp"

As the thief said its final words, it collapsed on the ground and dies… leaving him dead on the alleyway

Seeing the thief bleeds continuously.. She sensed a cravings of blood once again, The Blood Curse activated through her body

There, she can't control it anymore, she drank the blood of the thief she killed earlier, Replenish her hunger once again

After some time, she drank all the blood from the thief… because of the blood's support, her hunger satisfied once agin.. leaving a levitating hologram that disrupted Eirene vision

[ Drain Completed Extraction Completed 1 liter of blood was consumed ]

Eirene face covered in blood, she drank the thief body until there was none left… Then she approached another thief in the alleyway

Soon, Eirene arrived at the thief who stabbed her in the chest… now he was lying at the floor… lifeless and dead

There I devoured his masculine body until every bit of his body drained like a pale corpse.. soon another hologram appeared

[Drain Completed Extraction Completed 1 liter of blood was consumed ]

It seems that my hunger was replenished once again, No signs of growling in my tummy and my craving for blood was finally vanished

Now that I killed the thieves and replenished my hunger, I took one of their cloaked and left the alleyway

I feared that the knights will discover that I killed a thief… or the discovery from my human skill… The Blood Curse

So I remained hidden

The sky above from me, the moon still shines, My stomach still rumbled like crazy, this was not the growl of my Blood Curse, which had now just feasted by the two thieves in the alleyway

This was a much simpler hunger, a hunger who missed it's lunch and didn't ate properly

" Maybe I drank the blood of the thief, my Blood Curse from my hunger was filled.. but my hunger from my body is still ongoing"

Little did I knew that I fought the two thieves in the alleyway with an empty stomach… My crave from human blood stopped after I drank two liters

" Woah Lady, are you in a hurry?"

The knight from earlier suddenly approached me, asking me questions about my disappearance

" Miss, where did you go? I told you earlier, these streets were dangerous for a girl like you"

" Sir, apologies it wont happen again"

" I hope so, this is for your own safety… these thieves were slick enough"

While wearing a cloak in hand, I immediately left the scene… the knight was confused from my actions, so he shrugged a little and left

Upon returning home, she locked every door from her house, hoping to stay hidden..

" Woah that was a rush… that knight over there almost caught me… "

Then suddenly, a calming voice suddenly spoke at Eirene mind, there she saw the hologram once again, disrupting her vision

[ Successfully Drank 7 liters, Ready for Evolution ]

Evolution?, is this a joke… am I becoming stronger

Then, Eirene blood curse suddenly went into a half, showing a icon that reminded herself for evolution

Whenever she drank too much blood, her curse transforms in a state of evolution, Basically, your body will undergo a mutation that will change your body

Eirene drank too much blood from the fight between the thieves, Her body cannot handle all of that stored blood… Because of that, the Blood Curse starts an evolution

Then, suddenly Eirene body began to change… Her strength is increasing like rapidly.. like her best experience in her life, Suddenly a hologram appeared right in front of her eyes

[ Evolution Completed: Phase 1]

Blood Capacity is increased to 30 liters

Sharp fangs have developed… Made for sucking blood continuously

In this state, Eirene is becoming stronger, her facial expression changed after the evolution.. Also, Eirene noticed that her evolution comes up in phases… She successfully entered Phase 1 of her Blood Curse

" Phase 1?, This Blood Curse have different types of evolution, No way I will endure all the phases from my human skill"

Eirene unleases her first phase from her Blood Curse, she has undergone her first evolution from her blood curse… Changing its apperance completely and increasing her stats

Seeing that her apperance had changed.. She looked at the mirror inside of her room… She was left shocked

" Oh my.. I have fangs that stick in my mouth… I can easily suck out blood without spilling through my delinquent face"

Soon enough, Her apperance changed, the fangs between her teeth was visible…

" Oh my god… did I turn myself to a vampire"
