The Greatest Sinner

Evan was seriously wounded by the red lightning that hit him, but he was highly pleased with his progress despite the pain. Each of his three spells became significantly stronger, but Evan wasn't going to stop there. He had several spells in which he wanted to increase his Awareness.

First, he wanted to try to increase Awareness in his two new blood magic spells. He was sure that Ruthless Piranha Jaws and Hell Vampire Wings would become much stronger. Something told Evan that the higher the Rarity of a spell was, the stronger it would become as it improved.

Secondly, Evan wanted to see if he could increase Awareness in Death Feathers Fan and One-Eyed Raven's Beam on his own. Last time, One-Eyed Raven's Beam had increased its Awareness and even level because of the increased trust between them. But, Evan had never yet tried to become better at using this spell himself.

Finally, he wanted to try increasing Awareness in Lucifer's Shackles and Mammon's Gaze. Evan highly doubted that he would do it as he did with the spells he got from Reykar. But he wanted to try anyway..

Evan spent the next month training, but he achieved little to no results. So he continued to train further. Evan hadn't spent the proper amount of time training in a long time, so he decided now to devote his full attention to this activity.

After another three months, Evan stopped training. He had made some progress, but overall he was disappointed.

<In four months of training, I had increased Awareness in Ruthless Piranha Jaws and Death Feathers Fan, but I hadn't made any progress other than that. I haven't even progressed a single step, it seems that the Epic spell and the spells I got from the Pillars are extremely difficult.>

Evan thought, looking at the completely destroyed training ground. This was the third room he had destroyed during his training. When Virion first saw how Evan treated the training rooms he was given, he got furious. But, Evan simply paid the necessary amount and more to continue training.

Darkfil was one of the vampire bases, home to many powerful and influential members of the race. But, many vampires lived in other cities and created real mini-worlds there just for vampires and their friends. Therefore, vampires used the same money as humans, which meant Evan's untold wealth was useful to him even here.

"All right, it's time to get to the bottom line," Evan muttered and cast Ruthless Piranha Jaws.

His Warp spun, and the mana quickly turned into blood, which slowly transformed into a terrifying, bloody maw. The differences were quite significant, but not as much as Ball Lighting.

The jaw got bigger, and the teeth sharper. But, most importantly, the second row of teeth appeared, and they were more significant and more deadly.

Evan also learned how to manipulate this spell much better. It was now as easy as making tea. It took a little attention, but overall it was easy.

Next, Evan cast Death Feathers Fan. Evan didn't know if he could increase the Awareness of spell he got from the monster. But, he was pleasantly surprised by the result.

The mana transformed into a purple energy fan. The change was quite simple but effective. About one and a half times as many feathers flew out of the fan with each sweep. This spell was even more beneficial when fighting against numerous but not particularly strong opponents.

Evan was able to increase the Awareness of the two spells, but his successes ended there.

<Hmm, honestly, I didn't expect that I wouldn't be able to make progress in Hell Vampire Wings. I knew I probably wouldn't be able to increase Awareness in the two spells from the Pillars, it's a Rare spell, but not out of the ordinary.>

What bothered him was that he didn't even know what to do to increase Awareness in Hell Vampire Wings. He just flew around and tried to do something with the blood, but it was all to no avail. Usually, if the pure practice didn't work, Evan would somehow try to change the spell's cast. Sometimes it worked, but more often than not, it was a failure.

"Okay, I've become much stronger in all aspects. Anyway, I can fly, and that's the most important thing. What's more, I've practiced and gotten used to that wonderful feeling again, too bad this spell requires such a catastrophic amount of mana." Evan muttered and headed towards Virion.

During the time he had spent training, Evan had a plan for his next steps. He definitely had to join the Demonic Tree. Their base was not too far away, Evan would have no problem getting there in just a couple of days, but first, he wanted to experiment on humans.

Evan decided to postpone joining Demonic Tree because a small village near Darkfil had a couple of thousand people. For The Kingdom of Fallen Hopes, such settlements were tiny.

Evan's plan was simple, with the help of vampires, he would kidnap about twenty young people and drive them like cattle into an abandoned fortress a couple of kilometers away from the village.

Of course, the fortress had to be put in proper shape before that, but Evan had already asked the vampires to do that. He paid them generously, and a few days ago, Evan's request had already been fulfilled. The vampires hadn't returned the fortress to its original appearance, it was too complicated, and there was no need to do that. At Evan's request, they closed all exits and entrances except the one under control.

They increased the number of rooms, equipped everything with bars, and created several enclosures for the monsters. Evan didn't know yet if he would need outsiders for his experiments, but he was going to use the monsters. They still needed to be captured, but that wouldn't be a problem for Evan.

Evan headed toward the Emerton Family's estate, but suddenly the man he was going to meet came out to meet him.

Virion approached Evan with a frown on his face and said, "I know you need that village for some purpose, you paid my men well, so I want to warn you. I have information that an attack is planned on that village."
