Dilan was flooded with a large number of notifications after he inflicted numerous injuries upon himself in a matter of 48 hours. There was not much time left for him to prepare himself for the attack of the Vampires but he was already glad that he had enough time to upgrade his Origin ability without any of the Vampires bothering him.

Victoria came to visit him a few times to see if she could help him by altering his blood once again but she quickly realized that Dilan's room was too dangerous for her.

Every single corner of the room was splattered with blood; Dilan's blood and Victoria had quickly noticed that she had to leave, otherwise, she might do something stupid.

Victoria had been frustrated about Dilan's comment on how difficult it would become for all Ascenders, including herself, to control their emotions and desires if they didn't train and contain it. She didn't really believe his words because she knew her body much better than anyone else.

However, when Victoria smelled the intense scent of Dilan's blood in his room, she quickly realized that Dilan hadn't been joking with her.

She went to Kathrine and Yvonne to ask them if they could help her to control herself better, but they were not really in a position where they had lots of time to spare.

Everyone was feeling tense and working hard to prepare themselves both mentally and physically to fight the Vampires that were bound to attack them in the near future. Sven was coming up with all kinds of traps and battle strategies to obliterate as many Vampires as possible before they could even reach the base. This was definitely not easy because Vampires were a bit more resilient than ordinary monsters, let alone humans.

Vampires could heal in almost all circumstances, and all the traps Sven came up with could only restrict them to a certain degree. As for the battle strategies, they were quite easy to make use of, especially since the Vampires would focus on collecting the five Sanctum Keys.

However, that was something Dilan presumed to be entirely useless. Before he left the base to upgrade [Switch] and to prepare everything to advance his Origin ability [Regeneration], Dilan told everyone that there was no need for any special tactics.

He would move away from the base after he finished everything necessary to pull the Vampires in his direction. Dilan said that he could fight alone if necessary but that the Ascenders could join the fight by attacking from the sidelines if they wished to. They didn't have to join the war against the Vampires if they didn't want to, but it would be their loss if they didn't get any benefits from killing the Vampires.

The Vampire's attack was one big opportunity and wasting it was definitely not the smartest decision in Dilan's opinion. However, now that he had finished upgrading his Origin ability, he could tell that his strength alone was already more than enough to defeat all of his opponents single-handedly.

With [Switch] and his Origin ability upgraded, he felt that the only thing he was lacking was equipment with special abilities or other weapons than the Thunderbolt Daggers.

After all, his Health stat had been amplified by close to 200 Units, which meant that there was not really an existence that could tear through his defense, even if they were to be at Tier-2!

This was ridiculous but Dilan liked it, especially since his Origin ability had become stronger than it had ever been!

[[Regeneration]- Tier-1 ★✭✭

[+75 Health]

Passive →Enhances regeneration

Active →Uses 1~30 Units of Mana to enhance regeneration effect drastically for up to 90 seconds!

<Burst Regeneration>→ Increases Health and Stamina by 15% for 10 Minutes. Can be used once every 24 hours.]

Dilan looked down at his body which looked like an old and mistreated training puppet for new Ascenders to train to thrust their weapons in. He felt a bit weak but overall his condition was pretty decent.

More than 30 freshly inflicted cuts could be seen on his body but all of them were healing rapidly.

When he had used [Switch], Dilan first reallocated as much Health as possible to increase his Mana. This allowed him to use [Regeneration] as often as he wanted with as many Units of Mana as possible. When the duration of [Switch] wore off for the first time, his Health increased once again.

After ten minutes passed, Dilan used [Switch] for a second time, increasing his Health as much as possible by reallocating his Agility and Strength. Through this, his Health easily crossed 200 Units than before. This was more than enough to heal the lethal injuries he had inflicted on himself earlier.

While he was still healing, Dilan forced himself to get up from the ground. He didn't put on any clothes because he was about to see one of their many healers. They could tend to his wounds while allowing him to move around without an issue.

[Burst Regeneration]! Dilan activated his new sub-ability [Burst Regeneration] to increase his Health and Stamina by 15% for the next 10 minutes. He didn't think that he would require this ability in the next 24 hours. Now was the best moment to use it, which was why Dilan activated it.

He looked out for the others while walking through the basement. His bare upper body was exposed to everyone, and so everyone was able to see the 30 rapidly healing injuries in his abdomen, followed by the numerous scars that covered his entire upper body.

His body might be flawless after it had been nourished and transformed by his Divine occupation's passive ability [ Warrior's Unparalleled Physique] but this didn't mean that the scars he had sustained in the past would heal.

Even the large scar in the center of his chest was still clearly visible. That injury was something he had received not too long ago, when the Primordial Ascension had occurred.

However, even if it was one of the most painful injuries he had sustained in his life, it was nothing compared to all the things he had faced before the Primordial Ascension. His life had been a mess before the Primordial Ascension and if one were to ask Dilan about it, he would actually say that the Primordial Ascension made things easier for him.

Life was worth fighting for once again, which was basically the complete opposite of before when he had felt hopelessly defeated. Now everyone could become strong, and everyone was able to do whatever they wanted to achieve as long as they worked hard for it.

Before the Primordial Ascension, life was weird and ruled by the wealthy and influential without a way to escape their grasp if one was weak and powerless.

The weak and powerless couldn't change their life for the better and would continue to suffer silently. However, that wasn't the case anymore after the Primordial Ascension had provided everyone with the opportunity to gain strength and the right to rule over their own life.

Dilan nabbed this opportunity, strived hard to improve himself and he had a long life full of adventures in front of him. He was ready to face all his opponents head-on, without an exception.

Dilan smiled apologetically when he found the infirmary that had been built in their base not too long ago. He saw that many young women and elderly men were working hard to tend to the injuries of several Ascenders.

It was not rare to sustain injuries while fighting monsters, so Dilan's arrival was actually not that surprising.

However, considering that it was their leader, the strongest Ascender they knew, who had been injured, everyone was a bit baffled at this sight.

"Look…his flesh is moving….woahhh!" A male teenager exclaimed as he looked at Dilan's injuries.

"Shhh, don't speak too loudly. We're new here, and we don't want to attract too much attention…Look how everyone reacts. They seem scared…something is wrong!!" A female teenager warned him after she quickly covered her friend's mouth.

Everyone looked at Dilan in fear, and he could only shake his head as he tried to calm everyone with a few words,

"I inflicted the injuries to myself, there is no powerful monster nearby to be worried about!"

"Isn't that even worse? Why is someone suicidal in this group??" The male teenager had removed his friend's hand from his mouth to blurt out his doubts once again.

This time, however, it was not his female friend, who answered him, but someone else, who was lying on a small side bed.

"Well…this suicidal man is our wonderful leader…your leader!"
