Chapter 183 Jake Vs. Roth

Words : 1100 Updated : Oct 1st, 2025

'Just how monstrous is Alphonso?' "Hey, old guy, stop bluffing about your powers." Roth suddenly speaks up while Alphonso lets out a small laugh. I, on the other hand, still have many questions to ask. "Master, does the game also replicate our blood level? Like the amount of blood I had in my body before entering the pod." I ask out of curiosity. Blood is the most essential part of every vampire. To survive and make attacks we need blood. "That is one of the things that made me like this game a lot. Of course, it also replicates the level of blood in our bodies. However, using our blood in the game doesn't affect or consume our blood in the real world. If you also exhaust your blood in the game, you won't go into berserk mode like in the real world. You'll simply grow weak." Alphonso explains. 'I see…. I don't have to use my blood power unless necessary.' "So…. How should we begin the duel?" Roth asks with a yawn. "Good. Before I fight all of you, you guys have to battle yourselves first." Alphonso says with a neutral look on his face. "The first match will be Roth vs. Jake!!" Alphonso declares with a serious expression. Roth on the other hand, has a bored expression on his face, his demeanor is brimming with overconfidence. "Don't worry, Jake. I'll go easy on you. I might just break a few ribs here and there…fufu." Roth says mockingly and jumps onto the field below. "..." "Honey, are you going to be okay?" Blair asks with worry etched on her face. "Have you forgotten? We are in a game." I say with a chuckle. Hearing my words, Blair hangs her head in embarrassment while her cheeks turn beet red. For a moment, she forgot that we are inside a game. Taking a glance at Alphonso, I also jump onto the field below, standing several meters away from Roth. "Let the match begin!!" Alphonso roars. "..." Roth simply stands in a position without moving while yawning. [Now, this is annoying. Please teach him a lesson, master.] "Come on, attack me, Jake. It would be bullying if I attacked you first…" Roth says with a confident smile. "...." "Okay, let's do it like this… It seems like you underestimated me, Roth. If you can defeat me with a single punch, you win. However, if I can defeat you with one punch then I win. If both sides are unable to defeat each other with a single punch, then we'll begin a real duel." I say with a confident smile. I can see Roth gritting his teeth upon hearing my words. Yes, this is the perfect way to break him and make him lose his ego. I wouldn't mind teaching a brother some common sense and humility. "Since you proposed this, then I have no choice but to agree to it. Don't blame me for whatever happens. Even though this is a game, you can still feel the pain, just like the real world." Roth smirks and in the next moment, a large pool of aura starts dancing violently around him. 'Such powerful aura! Just when did Roth become this monstrous?' Looking to the side, I notice that Blair has a worried expression on her face and is restless. Even though we are inside a game, she cares so much about my safety. 'She's so cute….' Suddenly, I hear a battle cry. "Ayaaaa!!!" Roth lets out a wild battle cry and starts running towards me at full speed. In return, I also brace myself for the impact while swallowing a mouthful of saliva. "'Dracula's rage; step 1!!" Roth bellows and instead of him to continue running forward, he slams both of his feet into the ground and leaps into the air. Right now, I can see his figure in the air as it descends towards me like a meteor. Both of his hands are also cupped into a single fist like a sledgehammer, trying to slam into the concrete. 'N-Not this technique! I have seen him use this technique against Mule. Besides, the name of that technique… No way, only the Royal family is allowed to use that.' I think inwardly as I watch Roth's figure get closer. "Blood for Blood, Aura for Aura. Heed my words ye blood. Absolute blood control; ultimate defense!!" I bellow and instantly a burst of aura erupts from my arms, creating a large shield above me as I raise my hands. And at the same time….. BOOOM!!!! Roth slams his fisted hands into the shield I created, causing a loud explosion to ensue. "Arrgh!!" I let out in pain as it feels like a 50-ton truck slammed into me. The ground below starts cracking while my body begins to skid backwards little by little. At the same time, the sound of bones breaking can be heard from my body. But since I have the healing ability, I am healing myself continuously. Roth's body on the other hand, is covered with a hot aura like a rocket trying to force its way through a barrier. Abruptly, my aura shield starts cracking… 'No way.' Gaining a little momentum, I push Roth with my pure strength, causing him to fly backwards. But he quickly regains his momentum in the air and gently lands on the ground. Pants. Pants. Pants. Roth starts panting hard while looking at me with a bemused expression. I, on the other hand, don't look tired. After all, I only have a few bruises on my arms which were caused by the blood skill I used since it would need part of my blood and aura to form the shield. "That was cheating, you know?" I say, looking at Roth and Alphonso. "Well, the answer is yes and no. He used a high-level skill that wasn't meant to be used as a punch, which would be counted as a cheat. On the bright side, it isn't cheating because he used his fists to initiate the skill that was meant to be used with a weapon. That skill is meant for killing in one strike, it has 10 levels in total depending on the type of enemy you are facing. Back to the topic, to make this a fair game, you can attack him with a skill as long as you use your fists." Alphonso declares. "My turn, Roth…" I say with a wide grin slowly forming on my face.
