《Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn as a Vampire Dragon with a System 》Chapter 35: The Looming Threat

-----
Within outer space, near the Star of Orion, several immense spaceships fueled by gigantic mana crystals began to move through space, quickly moving towards their destiny, the planet of Ginnungagap.
Even at the speed they were traversing, the planet they were moving into was rather far away, after all, it was the farther planet of the entire planetary system, traversing through the spaceships they were using was actually faster than going by themselves through the outer void of space, even when the entities inside were at a minimum of peak X-Rank, with a few being already Pseudo-Demi-Deity Realm of varied Ranks!
The spaceships had beautiful decorations and were white-colored, with decorations resembling wings made of gold, large crosses, and even a flag atop them, which showed a beautiful long-haired blonde woman with a flashing star atop her head, this was the flag of the Aurora Planet and the Empire of the Heralds of Light, led by the Supreme Entity of Brightness.
The beings inside the spaceship all held shiny golden and white armor, with much powerful magic equipment and weapons, and powerful auras of light, these powerful beings were Heralds of Light, or simply called Paladins, by most of the folk that wasn't prostrating themselves before the great Empire that the Supreme Entity of Brightness had built.
Amongst the many figures inside the spaceship, one of them that exuded the strongest aura, a man with short blonde hair, shiny aquamarine eyes, and pale-white skin wearing light white armor and holding into a gigantic blade glanced at the outer space through the window in front of the large spaceship, glancing at the planets they were crossing through.
"How long will this take?" he wondered, seemingly bored out of his life.
"We'll arrive in approximately… a month, or perhaps a few days less," said a man at his side, with short black hair, sharp yellow-gold eyes, and golden armor.

"Hmph… Can't you hurry up? It is extremely boring to wait to get there… And even more, as I will need to find this chimera and slay it… Hahh… Couldn't they give this job to my older siblings instead? Why me of all things?" asked the blonde man.
"Lord Loid, the royal family has big expectations on you, especially your older siblings. Slaying the abomination- no, the evil of all the galaxy would bring a great amount of merit to your name, so your name can be known all across," said the man.
"And why would I care about that?" asked Loid.
"M-My lord, it is very important… it would be an honor to slay such a being…" said the man.
"Then why don't you go slay it yourself?" asked Loid.
"…"
"Yeah, that's what I thought… I guess my older siblings are annoyed by my presence, so they wanted me out of Aurora for a couple of days… Right?" asked Loid.
"My lord your older siblings would never-"
"Fine, I will prove to them that I can defeat this chimera thing and get done with this part-time job. Hopefully, the Supreme Entity of Brightness notices me and gives me her blessing, with it, my cultivation speed could skyrocket, and I might even be able t catch up to Arthur," said Loid, referring to his eldest brother, the crown prince of the Aurora Empire, Arthur Goldencrown.
The black-haired man at the side of Loid sighed, as he glanced at the space outside.
"(Oh, Gods, give me strength… Lord Loid is… quite a troublesome individual…)" he thought while sighing.
"I am getting bored of watching the void, I am going to my room to do some closed-doors cultivation until we get into the planet, at the very least I don't want to waste this time," said the blonde-haired Loid, as the black-haired man nodded.

"Very well my lord."
Loid walked through the large corridors of the spaceship, which resembled the interior of a gigantic castle than an actual spaceship, as he reached his room and sat down over a large formation made of runes, infused with many high-quality divine materials extracted from various divine realms or planets.
The moment he sat cross-legged there, the runic formation started to shine brightly, as ethereal light encompassed his entire body, closing his eyes, he began to slowly absorb this energy, nourishing the cultivation of his soul and body.
A smirk emerged on the man's lips, as he imagined what would be the prize he could get by slaying the abomination…
Meanwhile, the "abomination" or more precisely, Chaos, had just woke up.
He had decided to nap and then eat, but ended napping until the morning of the next day… Such were the naps of a vampire.
If he didn't wake up due to hunger, he would have ended sleeping for years without noticing. Vampires had an easy time falling asleep for a long time, but Chaos, who needed to constantly eat due to his undying hunger thanks to the Unique Skill: All-Consumption, ended waking up before that were to happen.
However, he felt bad for himself for having overslept, frustrated over his lack of self-control…
He quickly sat over the bed with a sleepy expression, wishing that he could sleep longer without having to worry about being the primordial evil or being hunted down or whatever…
"Sigh…"
Chaos sighed, hugging the pillow one more time, he had never slept over one before, so it felt almost intoxicating to sleep an entire night over a comfy bed, even as the terrifying being that he was, he enjoyed very simple things.
However, without wanting to waste much more time, he quickly got out of the bed and decided to take out his clothes to take a quick cold shower with nether water.
"Master, do you want breakfast~?"
But against Chaos's expectations of a peaceful morning, Abyss rushed into his room the moment she felt her Master had woken up, bringing some grilled dragon steaks, bread, and what seemed to be herbal tea that the Orcs drank sometimes.
"Eh?!"
However, she found him naked.
"Hm? Ah, Abyss… You shouldn't enter without knocking," sighed Chaos, as Abyss began to scan his entire body while growing redder, she stopped in a particular spot in between his legs…
"Uwah… Master's rod!" she said.
"Please go away for now…" sighed Chaos.
"Oh! Right!"
Abyss quickly rushed out of the room, leaving the expressionless Chaos embarrassed internally…

Magic Apprentice
Legends speak of an era where demons and gods once lived with one another. Different in nature and identical in strength, the two co-existed peacefully together. That is, until the right to govern humanity divided them. The Glorious Crusade; as it became to be known, caused space and time to be divided and the world separated into differing realms. Human civilization rebuilt itself after thousands of years, and without the gods or demons, they became the masters of their world. Yet the gods and demons remain.

An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)

Everyone is a Superhero! Apart from me
Welcome to Loktharma, where everybody is a superhero from birth. That makes Eugene De Lavet the most special of them all. At eighteen years old, he still has no clue what his superpower is. Loktharma has never been a fair world. There are Worldbreakers who were born to brandish the power of the universe, warp time-space, destroy lands and continents. There are Craftmasters who control the elements and terrorize countries with their might and wits. There are Commoners who are only gifted with power for the finer arts, architecture, military arts, or small-scale elemental manipulation. Even in an unjust world like Loktharma, there is always one constant: everyone is assigned a Flair since birth; the power to do something extraordinary. And then there's Eugene. He's been running around in a secluded forest since birth, training and sparring his ass off. While he can wield a blade better than most at his age, he certainly can't throw a giant boulder using the power of his mind, or turn his skin into diamonds. He has no Flair, no purpose for leveling up his stats, and no idea why General Rizeni Baggardo keeps him confined inside a forest for eighteen years. At least until Lord Pyro—the Craftmaster of Tailiah—unleashes his fury on the forest, searching for a treasure Eugene doesn't even know exists. On a frantic escape for his life, Eugene starts to realize he was a part of something he's been completely oblivious to until now. Along with his companions, Melodi and Azra, he travels the land and unveils the secrets of the world. [The story will be told primarily through the lenses of three main characters, with occasional side character POV chapters. It also draws inspiration from Japanese shounen. So only proceed if you're cool with these aspects.]
