The Witch Hunter System

Chapter 724 Awakened Bloodline

As Emperor Varan's heartbeat grew louder, the blood coursing through his body became increasingly potent and violent. His skin turned red and hot as his physical strength soared with each beating moment.

At the same time, the texture of his skin changed as it became more rough and uneven, almost like scales were trying to protrude out of it. The skin color of these affected areas also turned brownish-red.

Suddenly, a burst of strength flooded Emperor Varan's body, prompting him to grab Kazamir's ankle with more force.

Roar!

In the next instant, Emperor Varan suddenly shot up to his feet. He hurled Kazamir away like tossing out the trash before letting out a mighty, inhuman roar.

Boom!

Kazamir crashlanded into an unstable building with incredible force before the entire structure crumbled to the ground, burying him underneath it.

Moments later, Kazamir burst out from the broken ruins and debris and locked onto Emperor Varan's altered figure with a solemn yet ugly expression as he studied the human's transformation.

The crash didn't particularly injure him, but it did cause him greater psychological damage.

To think he would be thrown away like garbage by a mere human…!

Hm?

"So that's how it is," Kazamir suddenly understood Emperor Varan's unexpected increase in strength. "No wonder you are a little stronger than the other humans I have seen. You've actually been transplanted with a wyvern bloodline!"

However, Emperor Varan didn't just transplant a wyvern bloodline into his body; he even awakened it!

The chance of that happening was even lower than the Red Wyverns awakening their bloodline! Even the Red Wyvern Ancestor had yet to awaken his ancestral bloodline of the dragons.

And yet, Emperor Varan managed to do it!

"Kekeke, this is so ridiculous!" Kazamir suddenly started laughing after recognizing his folly. "I was only playing around with you, but the act of forcing you to overcome your body's limits repeatedly ended up benefiting you!"

"Your luck is truly outrageous, Human Emperor!" Kazamir spat with envy.

However, upon further thought, Kazamir figured it might not necessarily be a bad thing that Emperor Varan awakened his wyvern bloodline.

After all, his blood had become more potent and desirable.

"Why don't you swear your loyalty to me and become my Blood Servant, Human Emperor? I will permit you to live under my wing," Kazamir offered, suddenly becoming amicable and friendly despite their earlier conflict.

Emperor Varan responded to Kazamir's offer with a fist to the face.

Although Kazamir saw Emperor Varan's incoming fist, his Blood Wall failed to block the attack. In the end, his Blood Wall shattered like glass, and the fist cleanly landed on his face.

Bam!

Kazamir was sent flying as his face caved in under the brute force.

Before Kazamir could recover mid-flight, Emperor Varan chased him like a raging mad bull and caught up, then smashed him into the ground with a powerful hammer kick.

The ground turned into a small crater under the impact.

However, that wasn't the end of Emperor Varan's attacks as he pounced on Kazamir's body at the crater's center. He brutalized the vampire with a barrage of fists that greatly deformed his face with every blow.

Emperor Varan didn't intend to stop his relentless assault until Kazamir's head burst beyond recovery. Every fist was packed with his full strength and aura, and the interval between his punches grew shorter as they became faster.

It was like Emperor Varan was on stimulants; he did not dare to rest or stop until he slaughtered his foe—for he did not know how long he could last with such strength.

After all, he may have awakened the wyvern bloodline, but he didn't recover from his accumulated injuries.

Although Kazamir wanted to fight back, he wasn't given a single chance to break free from the stun lock created by Emperor Varan's increasingly swift, concussive blows.

Fear and regret slowly seeped into his heart as Kazamir thought he might die.

With his vocal cords repeatedly destroyed by Emperor Varan's brutal fists, he couldn't even plead for his life. He could only convey the thought through his blood-soaked eyes, which painted his vision red.

Emperor Varan noticed Kazamir's pleading gaze, but his onslaught remained ruthless and relentless.

"Sorry, but you have to die. You fight the domination of your race while I fight for the survival of mine. We are not the same. Underestimating me is a mistake you will have to take to the grave with you," Emperor Varan said hoarsely.

The hope in Kazamir's eyes immediately dulled.

Sometime later, Kazamir stopped recovering from his wounds after Emperor Varan bashed his head in for the last time. He was killed in the most violent way possible.

Nevertheless, after confirming Kazamir's death, Emperor Varan immediately roared victoriously at the heavens.

'Finally dead!'

Emperor Varan thought before collapsing to the ground after using the last ounce of energy in his roar.

"Your Majesty!"

Imperial soldiers quickly rushed forward to secure his body and tend his wounds to the best of their abilities.

…

Meanwhile, Vaan continued to explore the effectiveness of his Boundless Sea and Sky Aura. Unfortunately, it was not as powerful as it used to be in the memories of his earliest past lives.

The endless cycles of reincarnations had chipped away at its power and reduced it to a meager fraction of its peak.

Whether the Boundless Sea and Sky Aura could be recovered to its peak was something Vaan had yet to figure out.

However, he could confirm that he shared an intimate relationship with all flying and sea-based life forms; they would not be hostile to him without a proper reason, regardless of their sentience level.

Furthermore, although he couldn't control them, it was still possible to tame them through effort.

In fact, anyone could tame wild creatures and beasts if they used the right method and put in the effort.

However, the difficulty and time were just greatly reduced for him.

'Any sky or sea regions considered dangerous in the past will just be a stroll in the backyard for me now,' Vaan mused.

Furthermore, the current Boundless Sea and Sky Aura was still a frightening summoning ability.

With the right conditions, it could start beast tides.
