It has already been 3 days since Tarun came to this world and was still roaming the streets of Green-River City as a soul...
"Better to scout every major place here before i choose a body, so it will be more convenient for me to avoid any problems and plan my next move."
After dying in his last life like a hunted animal, he knew one thing! That don't be too overconfident and always plan ahead of everything.
In this city, Power decided everything! People with power could do anything and get away with it, while the Holy Church was incharge of policing the city, but corruption is everywhere, and it was no different for the holy church. This City was similar to the ancient earth, and also atleast a 100 times bigger. People, beasts, buildings and even little insects were as big as a dog from earth. It was truly astonishing. In these three days, Tarun had scouted the city and also chose a target for taking over.
It was a boy of 14 years named Manan. He was an orphan living in the Holychurch...
"Hehehe..A Vampire in the Holy Church, This is going to be fun! Since I have the power of a progenitor now, I don't need to care about the holy water, or their shitty crosses. Only Divine artifacts can hope to get rid of me..hehehe..I Must take his body tonight, although because his affinity is towards dark particles and that too low, He is left alone and I can do it any time but I might aswell be cautious."
*Night Time
Manan, after finishing his chores at the holy church went back to a barn. This was an abandoned barn with torn roof and horse dung everywhere. It was near the Holy church and it smelled way worse then it should but Manan as a level 1 Magus intentionally used some magic to amplify the smell of this place and set traps everywhere so that bullies won't come here to bother him too often.

"Those bastards! They made fun of me and made me wash their clothes aswell, and Why did Sister Maria didn't say anything?? This is soo painful, when will it end ?"
Said Manan while crying. He sat on a haystack while cursing his own fate.
Suddenly Tarun, at this time, came behind Manan and attacked his soul!
Manan's soul, without any resistance was swallowed whole by Tarun!
After swallowing his soul, came his memories and the voice of the 'Count'....
~Integrating Host's Soul to a body and straightening it with the soul of previous owner of the body.~
~ 1%.....2%.....9%.....18%....~
At the break of dawn, in a barn near the Holy Church laid a very attractive guy with blood red eyes and long jet black hairs. He was only a 14 years old but he gave off a very mature feel.
His eyes were very deep and if someone stared in them, they would feel that they are falling in an endless abyss!
"Damm that old man, he could have set a pretty voice of a lady in the system but no, He HAD to set his own damm creepy voice, che..and what is this!? Why has my appearance changed ? Wasn't Manan blonde and skinny? How did I become this handsome? it's like we are two totally different people!....sigh, System, Show me my stats in detail."
Said Tarun looking in a bowl of clear water.

Tarun Looked at this information before his eyes and was quite impressed as earlier he didn't have the power >, But now, it will be quite useful for assassinating people and getting away with it cleanly.
"This is not as bad as I thought it was going to be, But what the fuck is with this pricing ? Are people crops in this crappy system's eyes which could be harvested ? If I started another reckless slaughter, then people here would definitely slaughter me! Damm, everyone in this city is atleast level one or two, those bastard at church are even level 3! I could also use blood essence to level up but that would be so expensive..uggh.....oh well, good thing I already made my plans..hehehehe...Green-River City, prepare for a very chaotic future."
Tarun now got out from the barn and first went to the riverside and washed his body thoroughly with his white robes issued by the church. Although he could've used magic to cleanse himself and his clothes, but he was still inexperienced with magic. and although he had the memories of Manan, But he still had to practically experience magic himself. So while his clothes were getting dry, he was practicing every magic Manan knew.
He earlier thought that it would be an easy task, but he was proven wrong as he had never absorbed, condensed, converted the magic particles himself. So it took him quite alot of time getting used to his powers and his new body!
After His clothes dried, he wore them and started walking towards the holy church. Due to his earlier transformation, he had grown several centimeters and his robes were looking short on him also because now the sun has come up, there were quite a few people on the streets and looking at this Handsome boy with peculiar red eyes, flying long hairs and a white robe which was a little short for him, walking towards the holy church..everyone thought and chatted with one another that someone from the main branch of the holy church should have come here as this appearance was really new to their city.
As Tarun reached the gates of the church, a pretty lady of about 18 years with red hairs was coming out of the church and as soon as she saw Tarun, She was startled!
Tarun looking at her formed a smirk on his face and his eyes gleamed a little.
As a vampire, he instantly identified that she was a virgin...
"Hello, According to how pretty you are milady, You Must be Sister Maria, I am Tarun and It's very nice to finally meet you."...
