'Ohoh' I thought. After dying, I can see myself in a space without any matter. The nothingness is breathtaking, the same darkness that has been portrayed in the anime.

No movements are allowed or rather I can't move any limbs.

It must be a special space or dimension meant for the transition between worlds. I'm going to become an otherworlder. But for what reason was my soul taken away from Earth?

Whatever the reason, a new adventure begins. I'll be sure to enjoy myself.

Lost in thought, a change occurred. My body started glowing more and more each second that passed.

The brilliant white glow started spreading throughout the dark void.

I began to lose consciousness as the void was engulfed by the white glow.

***

Before I knew it, my body started reconstructing itself, starting from the feet and slowly going up to the legs, then the torso, finally concluding by the head and the end of my hair.

Standing straight, I slowly opened my eyes. The sight in front of me could be described as a gloomy and dark place. Thanks to being a vampire, I could see even in the absence of light.

One thing I understood was that I was inside what looked like a dungeon of some sort.

{Affirmative. Master's current location is where the True Dragon Valdora is imprisoned.}

'That's what I was thinking, thank you for confirming' I replied inside my mind.

So that means that Veldora is still inside his Infinity Prison and for whatever reason I got transported to the same place as the little slime, but before him.

Rubbing my chin, I started deliberating what to do next. I can't just stand here.

At that point I felt long teeth, teeth shouldn't be that long. Right, they're fangs, I'm a fucking vampire now!

That's quite a shock, becoming a monster. At least I'm a humanoid, but still...

I have to find a pond of water or something to see how I look now.

As I walked, I began to wonder about something and asked myself a question.

"I wonder what skills I have."

{Master's skills are the following :

Ultimate Skill [Traveler God Khonsu] :

• Enables the user to travel across multiple universes.

Sub-skills:

•World Hopping: Travel between the worlds of Tensura (Divine realm, Demon world, Central world, etc.).

•Spatial Domination : It represents an enhanced form of Spatial Manipulation, granting the user absolute mastery over space. With this power, the user can exert even greater control over blocking or limiting others within a broader range compared to regular Spatial Manipulation. Additionally, they can effortlessly navigate between different spaces, executing seamless Spatial Transitions.

Unique Skill [Envious] :

• Allows the user to copy skills or abilities up to Unique Skill level.

• Restrictions: Copying skills and abilities up to Unique Skill level with 100% effectiveness from the original skill. Activation by blood consumption.

Unique Skill [The Shrewd One] :

Sub-skills:

• Thought Acceleration: Increases thought-processing speed by a thousand times.

• Analytical Appraisal: The ability to analyze and appraise a target.

• Parallel Operation: The ability to detach thoughts and analyze phenomena.

• Thought Acceleration also affects detached thoughts.

• Chant Annulment: When using magic, the chant is no longer necessary.

• All of Creation: The ability to comprehend any non-concealed phenomenon in this world. Depending on the things the user understands and the information the user knows about, additional information can be inferred. In other words, the user needs to see it (the phenomenon) at least once.

•Analysis: The blood absorbed from the target is studied and analyzed. In the case of successful skill or magic analysis, it is copied. The Unique Skill [Envious] is linked with [The Shrewd One] and increases the probability of success by 100% for skills up to Unique Skill level.

• Judgment: When the user sees and interacts with the target, The Shrewd One can use the user's unique morals to determine whether the target is a 'evil' or 'good' person.

Intrinsic Skills from the race Vampire:

• Steel Strength: Greatly enhances the user's physical strength.

• Shadow Motion: Allows the user to move at high speeds by accessing the shadow sub-space.

• Self-Regeneration: Allows the user to speed up the healing process and even regrow limbs.

• Paralyze: Allows the user to paralyze a target under unknown conditions.

• Charm: Allows the user to temporarily control a person's thoughts.

• Coercion: Allows the user to mentally exert their presence to other people to intimidate them.

• Transform: Allows the user to disguise themselves.

• Blood Raise: Allows the user to bring someone back to life by using their own blood.

• Vampirism: Allows the user to steal life force and magicules via blood consumption.

Resistances:

• Sunlight : The user has overcome one of the weaknesses from the Vampire race and has become 50% of an "overcomer" vampire. The need for blood still remains.

• Thermal Fluctuation Resistance: Reduces the effects of temperature under a certain threshold to be negligible.

Voilà, Master.}

How the hell did I got that kind of Ultimate Skill ? I must be blessed by the heaven. Well not the heaven from where those pigeons are from.

It's fantastic, but unfortunately not for offensive purposes. But one can do so much with a skill like that.

I wasn't born with any attack ability, maybe strength enhancement and that's it.

Fortunately I have the skill [Envious]. Ah, I'm ashamed of the name, anyway I'll still use it.

I need to copy all the skills I can. I might even copy abilities from different anime worlds while I'm at it.

But what do you mean by blood consomption? I have to steaI from people or monster they will not like it. I nearly forgot that regular vampires feed on blood.

Huh ? I'm not even disgusted; in fact, I almost crave it. I'm getting thirsty now.

*Ahem* apart from the blood, I am able to venture outside while the sun is up ?! Woo-hoooo ! Let's go ! I'm not your weak vampire that got cremated by the sunlight.

"Hey Shrewd One drop the master thing, just call me by my name"

{Informing Master that Master has not been named yet.} it responded.

How convenient! We're at the perfect place to find a much stronger being who can give me a name.

"Shrewd One activate [Magic Sense]!"

That way, by tracing the flow of magicules and determining their most concentrated areas, I can locate Veldora.

{Do you want to activate [Magic Sense]

Yes/No ?}

Yes!

The influx of information entering the brain could fry a normal human brain. The surroundings became a lot more colorful; it was simply beautiful to see tiny particles floating in the air.

I began to run towards where I thought Veldora was. I was really excited to finally meet a dragon in real life.

It took more time that I tought, this carvern is huge. But I'm finally there.

And boy, this thing is gigantic!

Immediately after Veldora noticed my presence, he began speaking to me.

"How audacious for a mere bat to enter into my territory ?!" yelled the True Dragon.

This guy really got problems with bats.

"Oya, big lizard I understand your anger! But let me assure you that I mean no harm."

He responded by screaming, "I'm not a lizard! I am Veldora, the Storm Dragon, one of the True Dragons!" He stood up, crossed his arms, and held his head high with pride.

"You look badass, that's for sure, Veldora" I shouldn't have said that. He will get a big head, well, even bigger.

"Fuahahaha, so you recognize my awesomeness, fuahahah!"

Sigh, that was to be expected.

"So would you want me to leave ?" I asked knowing what his answer will be.

"No no no!! *ahem* I mean you can stay here if you want." said the tsundere lizard looking away.

You shameful lizard.

"You know little it is already a feat to be able to come close to me but why aren't you even shivering a bit ?" he asked.

"It seems like you're stuck here in this prison, plus you seem nice. Can you tell me why you're here and who put you here?" I was genuinely curious about his life story, it's not every day that you get to have a conversation with a dragon.

This dragon, with its ferocious appearance, sure loves to talk. He explained how it had destroyed a country and how a hero had come to stop him, but didn't forgot to left out the fact that it lost partly due to the hero's attractiveness.

I'll befriend a dragon today, hopefully.

(author here: vampirism isn't an intrinsic skill, it isn't on the wiki so due to being a unique monster I guess he has it, they're supposed to be canon skills from vampire's intrinsic skills.)
