《Mosquito Hivemind Hell-Bent on World Domination (or Annoyance)》18: Gaining a million (mosquito) followers has never been easier!
Advertisement
Let's see here, we have almost 13 000 Blood, so, let's begin with understanding how our hierarchy should look like.
On Thief should control 5 Vampires at the very least, one Vampire should control 12 Bloodsuckers which will operate in squadrons where the three Bloodsuckers rule over 90 Mosquitos together... Meaning a single Thief will control a total of 1800 mosquitos.
...Makes sense to me! Right now I have 500 Thieves, so that means I'll have to make a total of 900 000 mosquitos at the very least. Of course, I'll have a specially made squad of 10 Thieves and 50 Vampires watch over my person, but otherwise, I think I have a plan!
But first, let's see if we've lost any Thieves so far.

...Oh my. With the way this is looking, I'd say we finally have some honest-to-satan potential!
Right, let's get to work!!

Okay, so, you might be wondering, "why all the fucking mosquitos?" and that is, well... they're cheap. They can barely hold enough Blood to matter in the least, but they can act as just as much of an annoyance as a Bloodsucker, meaning that they make for the perfect diversions!
As you can also see, I almost have two much Blood to use. And none that I need to hold myself!! Perfect, perfect, absolutely perfect!
Even better, I've barely been doing this for much of any time at all, but I still have over a million Blood to use! It rolls in faster than I can use it, and that is just... It makes me too happy. I'm barely half-way to my goal of 900 000 mosquitos, and I can already see reason to double, if not triple my forces!

Why, depending on how I choose to do this, I could stride into the hospital in a human form, carrying with me only Vampires and Thieves! Which sounds kind of weird, but it would allow me to take any hit without a scratch!!
Oh, and I haven't even gotten started on stats yet...!!
I'll be back in a jiffy!

....Over a million. Beloved Beelzebub, I-,,
I have never been more proud than this very moment. I barely have to do anything, no forces are returning to me in particular, and yet-!!
Fuck it. Seriously, fuck it. Let's do triple what I was aiming for.

I'm going to cry. I'm seriously going to cry.
Okay, I won't cry since it isn't what a true villain would do, but! But!!
It is what a true man would do...........
Okay. Alright. Mosquitos: prepared.
Let's increase our stats. Right now, I'm pathetic and could probably take maybe two slaps and then promptly die, so... let's change that!
Status, show me what I must do to become an unstoppable force of evil!!

...I forgot about the Dark Arts, didn't I-?
Well, I'll leave that for after this heist is done and over with. Now, pathetic stats! Let me raise you through the roofs!!
If I keep my ratios as they are, with Succ being X and Noise and Defence being 2X and Flight, once I upgrade it well, being 4X... I should be alright. Speed and evasion have always been the core strength of a mosquito, but... Now that I have the Blood to do so, perhaps I should put some more power into my Defence?

Noise will also be good to have up high since I can, hypothetically, use some devastating sonic attacks at higher levels, and Succ... well, it is static. If I increase it, I'll be able to suck blood in a second, instantly use it for whatever, and then suck again. Rinse and repeat and the enemy is anaemic. Or dead.
...Alright, let's do this.
Let's invest!

...Oh my god. The one below, that is. Just-,, can I be killed? I don't think I can be killed.
And I barely used half of my Thieved Blood, too! I...
If memory serves, 1 Noise was pretty much 1 Decibel.
75 000 decibels.
I'm... I'm not even going to test that one out. Assuming I don't explode on the spot, it'll easily cause the nearby windows, if not the walls, too, to break right on the spot! Even so, this does have one good part.
"..."
Absolute silence.
I'm quieter than a mouse, quieter than anything! When I move, I can simply... not make any noise. No vibrations, no hertz, no sound. To be completely honest, it is eerier than anything.
Good. Stalking has always been the best part of hunting, no?
I have no idea what 50 000 Succ entails, but I think it'll let me suck my 10 000 Blood in less than a second. Which is... good enough, you know? Could be better, but it'll do.
Flight is... Well, let's just say, I tried flying as fast as I could, but I ended up crashing into a wall before I could so much as react. Somehow, the thing that cracked was not me, but the wall.
Nooooo, my lair!!
Shoot-!!
Wall and lair aside, this does prove that my defence can take... a lot.
Purely as an experiment, I persuaded my bodyguards to drop a rock on a willing Thief bodyguard, and, well... it did exactly nothing. Not even a scratch. He was just... fine.
...Did I accidentally get OP?...
Hhehhehehee... perfect...!!

Arcadia's Knight Academy is the premier school for young men hoping to become a Sorceress's Knight. Only nobles, people with power and prestige, are allowed within these hallowed grounds-which explains why Caspian Ignis del Sol is hated by everyone.

Whether or not he succeeds, and even if he does succeed, what happens to him will forever change the course of destiny for those living in this world of swords and sorcery.
