In Type-Moon, people create a magic family lineage

Although he was cut into ninety-nine pieces, along with his 'space', at this moment, the True Ancestor named Arcueid, the last and highest-ranking one, still seemed unaffected as he boarded the vehicle that Lukang had brought. He even opened the snacks in the car and started eating them while muttering to himself.

He no longer looked like he had been baring his teeth and brandishing his claws.

Lu Kang's gaze swept over her squatting posture on the chair. Her short blonde hair cascaded down to her full breasts, her white sweater was stretched taut, and the hem of her knee-length skirt rode up to her thighs due to her squatting position, revealing the curves of her round buttocks pressing against the chair, and the soft flesh of her snow-white inner thighs slightly sunk into the chair.

She swung her legs, which were encased in black stockings, her toes hooking onto her sandals and swaying back and forth. When her knees were together, they accentuated the fuller curves of her thighs.

He looked cheerful.

Lu Kang didn't care at all about her words of trying to get back at him. Unless Arcueid could possess the wisdom to match her power and bring out her mysterious abilities, he wouldn't panic at all—he had a hundred ways to deal with vampires!

Even if you can't kill them, you can still restrain and kill them!

However, Arcueid questioned why he wanted to come along... and Lu Kang couldn't stop him yet.

You can beat them, but you can't kill them.

Even if it's sealed, this guy will still break free by self-destructing and then reconstructing his body.

Even now, whether in simulations or in reality, Lu Kang has dealt with many Dead Apostles, and even Lin Anaxiu, the patriarch of Dead Apostles, has been completely buried by his hands. He can almost be said to have completely cracked the principle of the Dead Ancestor's immortality. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have come to Kyoto in such a menacing manner.

But this was also the first time he had encountered the true progenitor of the Dead Apostles.

The True Ancestor's immortality is completely different from that of the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles—

The immortality of the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles largely stems from himself, through either hyper-regeneration or state reversion.

The True Ancestor's immortality is bound to the planet, allowing it to mysteriously regenerate itself—a regenerative ability that is among the highest even for elves.

As stated in the preface.

—The True Ancestors are a type of elf, but they are True Ancestors with the defect of drinking blood and need to drink blood to maintain their sanity.

Arcueid is the epitome of perversion.

Her regenerative ability is simply an extremely abnormal ability to quickly regenerate as long as the planet still exists, even if her physical form collapses or her soul temporarily perishes.

She didn't even have the blood-sucking flaw of other True Ancestors, and didn't need to rely on drinking other people's blood to maintain her self and sanity—even though her body also retained that wrong 'impulse,' it was just an illusion.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have gone berserk after being deceived by Roya and accidentally consuming his blood through the contract.

A normal True Ancestor, when consuming blood, will only gain a clearer sense of reason.

—To some extent, Arcueid used most of his power on this in order to suppress the urge to make this mistake.

The fact that she was in a state of one-tenth restriction was not unrelated to this, aside from the parts that she couldn't control herself.

—To some extent, what Lu Kang wanted to 'imprint' and 'break' was precisely this mysterious source of immortality, which was unique even among the True Ancestors.

Although that is difficult.

Although there are no clues yet.

However, if he can crack the code, it would mean that Lu Kang has the foundation to 'kill gods'.

After all, gods are also the tentacles of planets, and the highest of the highest, just like Arcueid. Of course, this excludes the top-level beings of those pantheons, those beings of the 'chief god' level. Those beings are no longer just tentacles, but are more like the rulers of the source of nature.

At this moment, the 'voice' that Arcueid uttered piqued Lu Kang's interest even more.

According to Arcueid, after being tricked and going berserk by Roya, she fell into a deep sleep. Each time she awoke from this sleep, a voice called to her ear, telling her the approximate location of Roya and instructing her to go there and 'execute' him. Before this, she had already executed several reincarnations of Roya. Even the time Roya failed to possess Siel was because Arcueid's actions forced Roya to undergo his next reincarnation prematurely.

Arcueid and Hierre met during that incident.

This time, the voice appeared as always.

And just now, Arcueid was given another 'revelation'.

That is...

"The planet's own restraining force, Gaia's voice?"

Lu Kang guessed this.

The True Ancestor is a kind of spirit, a tendril of nature, a part of the planet, and the planet's restraining force represents the power of celestial movement—encompassing everything in nature.

Not to mention that Arcueid is very special as the last and strongest True Ancestor.

Her connection with Gaia is only closer than that of a typical True Ancestor!

He had many dealings with Alaya, who protects human reason.

Lu Kang didn't have much contact with Gaia.

However, he was clear on one point: as a restraining force of the planet itself, Gaia was definitely 'stronger' than Alaya—Alaya had guardians, and Gaia also had 'Gaia's monsters'.

"What planetary restraint force, Gaia?" With a flash of red eyes, Arcueid ripped open another bag of snacks with a hiss.

She said she wanted to get revenge, but she didn't seem to show the slightest hostility towards Lu Kang.

"You guy..."

Siel, who had been sitting in the front row but had been constantly on guard against every move in the back, finally couldn't help but turn around. His short, azure hair swayed slightly from the large movement: "You vampire... what exactly are you planning?"

Her rounded breasts swayed slightly with her movements, the taut lines between her arms stretched into sharp arcs as she turned, and her church uniform skirt rode up with the vigorous movement, revealing her firm thighs wrapped in black stockings. The belt around her waist accentuated her full waist and hip curves.

The church girl, turned to the side, was tense all over, clearly full of hostility from beginning to end. Because of Roya, she would never let her guard down against any vampire!

Arcueid chewed with her cheeks puffed out, her ruby-like eyes blinking innocently: "Hmm?"

She tilted her head, her blonde hair slipping off her shoulder: "No~"

"Stop playing dumb!" Hiel's fingers gripped the black key's handle tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force. "You followed me here out of nowhere, stuck close to His Holiness the High Priest, and said you wanted to fight back, and even offered 'voice guidance'—"

"You're definitely plotting to harm His Majesty, aren't you?"

"I'm serious!" Arcueid blinked, still wearing that innocent look.

"Besides, if you get hurt, you'll definitely want to get revenge."

"This doesn't count as murder, does it?"

"besides..."

Before the words were finished, Arcueid suddenly moved closer to Lu Kang, her nose almost touching his cheek—so fast that even Lu Kang, who still had extremely high dynamic vision despite not having undergone magical enhancement, almost didn't see it clearly.

That soft body almost swayed as it brushed against his chest.

Then Arcueid sniffed like a small animal: "He smells really good."

"Being by his side makes even food taste better—injuries like the one I just had heal quickly, and I don't even need to sleep anymore!"

"This tastes much better than that nasty 'snake' on you, little dog!"

Hierle's pupils dilated suddenly: "You—!"

She suddenly stood up, her head hitting the car roof with a "thud," but she didn't even bother to rub it. She let out a howl and squatted down, clutching her head.

Arcueid blinked, looking even more innocent.

Lu Kang glanced sideways, thinking that the 'bow' used to bury the mechanism looked rather silly and cute—could this be considered 'contaminated' by Arcueid?

He certainly didn't have the smell Arcueid had described.

Yes, it is the ever-flowing, almost limitless true etheric magic.

This highest level of magic, which once filled the atmosphere in the mythical era, was also an extremely superior form of energy for the true progenitor of the planet's tentacles.

The highest-level 'vampires' do not simply suck the blood of living beings.

And it is able to absorb the lifeblood of the planet—that is, the magic of nature.

Arcueid undoubtedly possesses that kind of construction.

Being in the True Ether environment definitely makes her feel more energetic!

Even the unavoidable energy loss caused by the recent division into ninety-nine parts has now been completely restored—although it can be bound to the planet indefinitely, it does consume energy during the restoration process.

Of course. Normally, during a battle, Lu Kang's magic would not be allowed to be absorbed by her. Under the triple cycle, he undoubtedly holds the highest authority. However, after the battle, it is a different story.

Arcueid can only be eaten, not used.

Meanwhile, Kichijou-in Kihara remained focused on driving and 'watching the show'.

The train carriage bumped and jolted as it moved forward.

They finally arrived at Lu Kang's original destination soon.

The highest point in Kyoto, the site of the former Heian-kyo inner city, and the Heian Shrine where the former "Heavenly King" resided.
