The First Vampire - Light Novels

Chapter 733: 729 Grand Finale_1

“After we forced Elan Seraph to reveal why she wasn’t assimilated by the Power of Faith, we killed her.”

Upon hearing this, Colin was taken aback.

He wasn’t surprised that Silver Snake and the others killed Elan Seraph. After all, they were mortal enemies. If they didn’t seize the chance to kill Elan Seraph, once she absorbed enough faith and successfully broke through to the ninth level, the other semi-deities of the Druids would be doomed.

But since they had already killed Elan Seraph, why was she…

Seeing the confusion in Colin’s eyes, Silver Snake immediately explained further.

“She resurrected later. This is one of the Phoenix’s innate abilities. However, even though she resurrected, she was unable to regain her lost status, so Elan Seraph had to start training from scratch.

Of course, we couldn’t stand idly by and watch Elan Seraph regain her strength and take revenge on us.

So, once we detected her presence, we would strike her down with thunderous force.”

Colin thought of the phoenix corpse in the Bright Moon Forest and asked:

“So if I kill her this time, she’ll still revive?”

“Yes.”

Colin shrugged, not really bothered by this.

After all, Elan Seraph, who would lose her status after resurrection, wasn’t something to worry about.

“So, how did you end up allowing Elan Seraph to regain her current strength?”

Silver Snake sighed, responding helplessly:

“Because gradually, we are losing the ability to deal with her. As time goes on, the assimilating effect of the Power of Faith becomes more severe. I’m still in better condition, but the Orc God of Destruction has completely lost his consciousness due to assimilation. The Troll’s God of War sometimes regains consciousness, then falls into chaos again. He probably can’t hold on much longer.

Under such circumstances, how could we still have the energy to deal with Elan Seraph?

However, we did manage to unite different races against the elves through oracles, thus pulling the elves down from their dominant position on the continent.

So even if Elan Seraph wanted to regain strength, the dwindling Elves couldn’t provide enough faith.

Thus, to prevent further decline of the Elves, she led her race into the Bright Moon Forest.

But as I said, the Elves who are now in decline can only provide limited faith. Moreover, the Elves have a very fatal flaw —

They struggle with reproductive issues.

A common elf can live for a thousand years, but in this long lifespan, they can only produce two or three offspring, which is a significant flaw when it comes to population growth.

As you can imagine, it would take tens of thousands of years for the Elves to regain their population at its peak!

But Elan Seraph can’t wait that long. Although her lifespan has increased after achieving the status of semi-deity of the ninth rank, she can’t live for tens of thousands of years.

Even if we are unable to kill Elan Seraph anymore, she is no longer able to break through the ninth stage limit with the Power of Faith drawn from the Elves.

So, she ended up targeting humans!

Humans are an extremely promising race. They are intelligent, diligent, and easy to organize. Moreover, they are good at reproduction, making them the best source of faith.

Yet, there is one problem —

The assimilation of faith!”

Colin suddenly remembered the forbidden spell Mr. Ji used to occupy another’s body and realized:

“Could she plan to become human in some way?”

“Yes. You might have guessed it, the ‘Eyes of Judgement’ of Mr. Ji is actually a forbidden spell researched by Elan Seraph. She then deliberately leaked it out in the form of ancient texts and made Mr. Ji the first specimen of the forbidden Spell.

Of course, the ‘Eyes of Judgement’ is a forbidden spell that Elan Seraph recently researched. Thousands of years ago, her first idea was to replace her heart.”

Upon hearing this, Colin immediately thought of Mage Kurd and asked:

“Did she get close to Emperor Gana because she wanted his heart?”

“Yes. Gana St. Lorenzo, like you, awakened the ‘Blood Bat’ heritage. After discovering him, Elan Seraph set her sights on him.

However, I managed to stop her in the end.

On one hand, I can’t let Elan Seraph succeed in becoming a god, as bloody revenge would be inevitable for me.

On the other hand, I actually wanted to take this opportunity to escape this cage…”

With a deep sigh, Silver Snake said lamentably:

“The faith of other races is actually a poison to us, but by the time we realized it, it was already too late.

So since this path doesn’t work, I decided to return the Altar of Faith I stole from the ‘Blood Bat’ to its rightful inheritor.”

Looking at the hopeful gaze in the Silver Snake’s eyes, Colin quickly understood what he was thinking.

“So, are you planning to give this Altar of Faith to me now?”

“Yes. I will help you become a god. In return, I ask to become one of your subjects.”
