Chapter 560: The Meeting Of Colors 3
-----
What Greenwood had revealed to the rest of the colors was nothing but shocking, a being with an immortal body, a true immortal body capable of regenerating from anything and without any weaknesses like those that Vampires.
Perhaps its only way to die would be to be disintegrated to an atomic level, or by having his soul crushed, his body could simply self-regenerate endlessly. Of course, Green or well, Greenwood didn't knew that Drake had the weakness of requiring a lot of calories and energy stockpiled to be capable of having such regeneration, so he had to eat a lot, several times his own size almost every day.
But even then, wasn't it still an amazing power? And as long as he had dungeons with him to supply him with monsters to eat, he could easily stockpile as many energies and calories as he wanted anyways.
"I have some info about him, well, the last time he was seen was in there, in the Dark Shadow Sect territory, and if he went there to finish them off, I can assume he also helped the Winter Lotus and the Jade Snake Sects… there might be a possibility that this dragon had somehow become allies with these two sects, and came to finish off their enemy sect for them…" said Red.
"Interesting…"
"If he's there, we should really go there and capture him, shouldn't we?"
"And how? We are all dispersed around the world, fool."
"We are all busy…"
"And its not like immortals can capture the dragon."
"Hmm… We cannot track him either. And he might move out soon… What an issue… Well, Red, I am leaving his capture up to you. Sadly, I am filled with problems of my own." Said Greenwood.
"Hmph, fine, I'll do as I please then." Said Red.
"But your Vampires already got killed by him, what makes you think he won't kill them again?"
"Yeah… For being so strong, your Vampires seem to be really useless."
"You dare mock my troops? Ugh… Well, you're kind of right… But there are many ways… I will just slowly figure out such ways…" said Red.
"Then I believe we should resume our own tasks, concentrating too much into a mortal is not a good thing…" said Greenwood.
"I agree…"
"Very well then."
"We'll see each other again in another opportunity."
The video call quickly ended, as Greenwood began to look into the window of his room with eyes filled with contempt.
He seemed to be wondering what he should do… he was really interested in these Unique Skill users… even more than before now.
He might begin doing some things himself, as he began to grow rather restless over it.

(Drake's POV)
[Day 198]
It has been a day since things finally ended, the Dark Shadow Sect was completely decimated by my cheat-like abilities and my complete lack of tactics aside from abusing my God-given powers. If I were a novel main character, I would probably be hated for abusing my cheats instead of being a super smart genius that does everything by outsmarting their opponents.
But aside from these flashing thoughts that sometimes reaches my mind, a few things happened.
After I devoured Black and his entire vessel at that, I gained a bit of power, but nothing I could had thought would be of much use, even another Rank 5 Mana Core didn't even helped me breakthrough, so this might take even longer than I had originally thought.
Oh well, at the very least my Dark-Attribute Skills seem to have acquired an enhancement to their power but… nothing more. Sometimes I get the memories of the beings I devour, but this time? I didn't even got a single thing, and the power I got was also disappointing! I feel completely betrayed now, was this rigged from the beginning? Is this how things are going to be from now on?
I felt so disappointed that I was down for most of the time after the battle, as we began to pick up the corpses and everything else, we could find. I made sure to loot anything of value, but most of what I found was garbage that would never compare to what I can already make myself.
Did someone looted this place before I did?
There was this jewel of negative energy or something like that… it survived being swallowed by me after I regurgitated it just in time. I think I can use it to absorb negative energy and then transform it into mana, seems pretty useful to be honest, so I might use it in the future if I can find a place where I can harvest this energy without committing crimes against humanity.
Well, I could easily just bind a thousand souls together inside of Rose's Phantom Stomach and ask her to torture them for eternity, the souls will be tortured and produce negative emotions, which will turn into negative energy and then I can absorb it with the jewel and turn it into mana.
Easy!
I guess I cannot do this, I wouldn't bring myself to torture innocent people's souls, it just feels bad to me, I was a human before, a normal human being that wasn't particularly a psycho, or so I want to believe.
But hey, what if I use the souls of assholes or very horrendous people? Like the souls of all these Dark Shadow Sect members? Checking their memories using Death Magic tells me 90% of these bastards had done horrendous things to innocent people, so I guess they deserve some suffering.
Let's make a soul-torturing bank then! Well, it was already done, Rose was already producing a steady amount of black-colored smoke-like energy, which she was slowly accumulating inside the jewel which I lend to her as well.
About those two Vampire Souls, I decided to not torture them for the moment, and I turned them into Ghosts instead as I wanted them to stick with me for info and stuff, they seemed old enough to be good sources of information whenever I wanted to know something.
Lily turned into a Blood Poison Ghost, and Austr into a Blood Ice Ghost, they're weak at Rank 1 Initial Stage for now, but they'll grow stronger over time. As of now they're on Rose's command.
And well, aside from that…
