-1133- Forgive me

Beast vassals indeed absorb the life force of their hosts, that is an undeniable fact.

Moreover, the kind of absorption is not ordinary.

Leaving aside other factors, just talking about humans, if one summons a beast vassal, even if it's an ordinary one, its life force will be instantly drained by more than half, resulting in a significant reduction in lifespan.

Even if it's just a loss of one or two years of life as a price, some individuals who are extremely eager for power or are desperate might still summon beast vassals regardless of the consequences, right?

However, even if one is desperate for power and pushed to the limit, humans other than vampires would still not want to use beast vassals because the life force they absorb is not just one or two years of lifespan, but rather several decades or even hundreds of years as the price, which is extremely terrifying.

In such a situation, Rozen summoned over a hundred beast vassals, and logically speaking, his life force should have been completely depleted, causing him to collapse.

But Rozen remained unchanged, showing no signs of anomaly.

"Senpai?"

"You... could it be..."

Yukina and Sayaka Kirasaka were surprised by this.

"In fact, I'm also curious, Nichiyo, what exactly did you do?" La Folia Rihavein also expressed her concern, looking at Rozen's eyes twinkling with curiosity.

"At least, I refuse to believe that our esteemed Divine Child would be the kind of human who disregards consequences and overestimates their abilities," Dimitrie Vatler said with a perfect elegant smile, his words carrying a certain sense of certainty.

Rozen was being watched by everyone present, raising his eyebrows.

These people present did not yet know that Rozen's over a hundred beast vassals were not summoned from another world but were his absolute contracted familiars.

They were merely pure records, imprinted in Rozen's soul.

Therefore, they were absolutely loyal, wouldn't betray him, and were immortal, completely obedient to Rozen.

So, even though Rozen transformed them into semi-materialized beast vassals, they would absolutely not absorb Rozen's life force but would only exert their own power to fight for Rozen.

This was also the reason why Rozen could achieve the fusion of beast vassals.

Perfect manipulation of magic and absolute control over beast vassals were the conditions for achieving the fusion of beast vassals.

In view of this, after successfully achieving the transformation of familiars into beast vassals, Rozen almost immediately achieved the fusion of beast vassals, mastering these two new powers in one go.

As for the nine Fourth Primogenitor's beast vassals harbored in his blood, the life force they absorbed was not Rozen's own but rather a passage between the seal established by Rozen and the seal within his body, extracting life force from the Primogenitor within him.

In other words, just like vampires using beast vassals, Rozen didn't need to pay any price, just consume magic power.

And if the magic power was sufficient, Rozen could completely exert power comparable to the Fourth Primogenitor, or even surpass the Primogenitor.

This was not an impossible task.

As long as Rozen unlocked the first seal, the first secret spell would also be liberated, by then Rozen would have obtained magic power equivalent to twice that of the Fourth Primogenitor, not to mention the second seal and the second secret spell and finally the third seal and the third secret spell.

It must be said that Rozen's choice to seal the Fourth Primogenitor within himself, thus becoming a living spirit of the Primogenitor, was definitely a transformation akin to a rebirth.

Once Rozen truly unlocked the third seal and used the third secret spell, even though it was only for three minutes, within those three minutes, Rozen could gain magic power over a hundred times that of the Fourth Primogenitor, how strong Rozen would become using it to command familiars and beast vassals would be self-evident.

Now, even under normal circumstances, Rozen, who could already use the Crimson Wing Formation with tenfold amplification, Kinu, Gyokuto, Hokuto, and Altera's power, would not lose to a Primogenitor-level opponent.

If it were the current Rozen, even under normal circumstances, he could compete with the Fourth Primogenitor, known as the strongest vampire.

This was Rozen's current strength.

Of course, Rozen didn't need to explain too much.

Especially in front of Vatler.

Therefore...

"That's also possible," Rozen smiled at Vatler.

"Maybe I'm just the kind of human who disregards consequences and overestimates their abilities?" Rozen's playful words actually made everyone present more certain.

Rozen absolutely could use the power of beast vassals so recklessly for some reason.

What does this mean?

It means that even though he is human, this person can freely summon beast vassals like a vampire.

After all, even the First Primogenitor only possesses seventy-two beast vassals, while Rozen can casually summon over a hundred beast vassals, and even gained recognition from the Fourth Primogenitor's beast vassals, able to use their power.

Although the strength of the beast vassals Rozen summons is not very strong, even the Fourth Primogenitor's beast vassals have weakened in his hands, but don't forget, Rozen also has the ability to fuse beast vassals.

Today, Rozen has fused over a hundred wyverns, summoning a beast vassal whose power is comparable to that of the Primogenitors.

So, if he were to fuse all of the Fourth Primogenitor's beast vassals, what kind of monster would be summoned?

Not to mention, Rozen also has the power to seal Primogenitors, plus abilities related to gods....

This human before us is definitely a terrifying existence not inferior to the Primogenitors.

Thinking of this, everyone had their own reactions.

Sayaka Kirasaka's face was full of complexity.

La Folia Rihavein felt a bit of admiration and became even more curious about Rozen.

Yukina recalled the incident with Avrora Florestina earlier, remembering that Rozen indeed has a way to deal with life force, feeling somewhat relieved, but also wary because of the unexpectedly powerful display of Rozen's strength.

As for Vatler, he was naturally extremely satisfied.

"Let's just leave it at that."

Vatler also didn't intend to pursue further, speaking with profound meaning, and extending a hand towards Rozen's direction.

"As the diplomatic ambassador of the Warlord Dominion, I estimate that I will stay on this island for a while longer. If I have offended in any way, please forgive me, our esteemed, revered, and feared Divine Child."

Vatler bowed like this, his words carrying an air of patience and thoughtfulness.

Gazing at Vatler like this, Rozen smirked.

"If I've been rude in any way, please forgive me too, Duke of Ardeal."

With that, Rozen reached out his hand, and it met Vatler's hand.

Neither of them made any moves, nor exerted any force on their hands, just staring at each other, smiling.

Seeing this scene, everyone felt heavy with thoughts.

"It seems that we need to step up our surveillance of Senpai to prevent him from doing anything impulsive."

Yukina sighed.

"That's why I hate men, they're all so inconsistent."

Sayaka Kirasaka gritted her teeth.

La Folia Rihavein, on the other hand, felt pleased.

Seeing Rozen facing Vatler without backing down, and even faintly overshadowing him, La Folia Rihavein smiled happily.

"This time, it's really worth coming here."

At least, she met an interesting person.

A man who is unfathomable and keeps his true abilities hidden.
