[Nosferatu (Paragon) - A race born during the Second Great Cycle that were innately born with Laws of Blood. The Ancestors to all Vampires... more beautiful, ruthless, and talented than any vampire could ever be.
-Crimson Paradox Veil (Paragon)
A shroud of blood-mist and illusory flames that warps reality around the user, creating paradoxes where enemies age forward while their wounds reverse into endless agony. Opponents trapped in the veil experience eternal beauty that hides ruthless decay – their bodies remain flawless while their soul's crumble. (Works Up to 3 ranks Higher than the User. Currently - Third Calamity)
-Nosferatu Eternal Thirst (Paragon)
An insatiable hunger that devours blood, mana, and essence from any living thing, converting it into raw beauty and power. A single bite or sip of blood ignites a combined lust-fire aspect that makes victims crave their own destruction, drawing them closer like moths to a flame. (Same Restrictions)]
[Affinities Acquired - Blood, Shadows]
[Laws Acquired - Blood 1%]
A week passed by swiftly for Ash who had fully absorbed the bloodline... and the results were staggering.
Aside from the two paragon level talents, he also gained enhanced aspects of anything vampire related. Blood could be willed a thought even despite his low comprehension. He could regenerate from a drop of blood, and even his MP grew an extra billion.
Not just that his appearance had changed. The ten tails were gone, folded away into the new truth of what he was: Human, Fox, Original Desire, and now Nosferatu, all fused into one undefined whole.
Pointed ears rose elegant and sharp like an elf's blade. From his back unfolded two vast wings that were black as the void between galaxies with veins of glowing red-pink pulsing like living constellations.
His skin had deepened to flawless bronze, catching every stray gleam of light as though forged from molten metal.
He opened his eyes.
They were no longer eyes—they were twin drops of living blood, red-pink and swirling, beautiful and terrible.
Something deeper had changed too, something he couldn't name.
A quiet, ancient hunger that tasted like eternity and smiled like lust.
He shrugged his shoulders after trying to pinpoint his change....
"Fuck it."
He cracked his neck, the sound sharp in the silent void.
"Now let's step into the Calamity Rank… after that I'll clean up a few things and finally see what this world is really made of."
"Before that, though, I want to max my other Laws out completely…"
Three months blurred past inside his inner cosmos (ten days outside).
First came Fire.
He sat in a sphere of white flame that burned without fuel, letting the heat peel away every memory of weakness until the Law of Fire knelt at 100 %.
Space followed— he saw it not as emptiness, but as a vast tapestry of meaning. He traced patterns of as if they were lines in a book, each fold revealing a deeper truth. After some time, he realized distance is not a barrier, but only a perspective. In that moment of clarity, the essence of Space revealed itself fully, and he grasped its Law in perfect comprehension.
Time revealed itself as a cycle without edges. By observing moments forward and backward, he came to see that past, present, and future were not separate, but facets of the same truth. In that realization, the essence of Time stood fully understood.
Paradox took longest—He contemplated contradictions—life within death, desire within hatred—until he grasped that reality itself was woven from such tensions. Through this insight, the nature of Paradox became clear and reached 100%.
Blood was last—it spoke to him as hunger and vitality intertwined. By listening to its resonance, he understood that it was not merely thirst, but the song of existence flowing through every vein.... and with that...
All Six Laws were perfected.
Instead of taking a break he kept going, now he was one step away from stepping into the Calamity rank. According to Raven, these laws were forged based on everything that made up a person, from their past all the way to their soul.
However, from Kaelthyr he learned it was a bit deeper than that... he also needed to combine Laws together around these things.
So with this thinking he began to work.
At this point in time Ash was a completely different person from when he last thought about whom he was. Just ten years ago he thought of himself nothing more than a transmigrator from Earth.... a guy who lucked up and received ten life altering gifts. However, now in this point in time he knew he was much more than that.
He was a being so incomprehensible that even he didn't know the depths.
However, despite all of that currently... As he sat and thought about his previous lives and then the experiences, he'd had in this one.... everything came to a meeting point.
Every memory... Earth, Elaris, every death, every kiss, every sword swing across dying stars... it all rose around him like crimson threads. He seized them all and then used Lust, Paradox, Fire, Blood, Space, Time and wove them together as the threads ignited.
[You have ranked up.]
[Rank: First Calamity (Existence Level 54 million)]
[Calamity Law - Law of Infinite Wants: A mirror-domain where every desire is reflected infinitely. One lust becomes a billion; one fear becomes endless. Time fractures inside the reflections, fire burns through mirrors, space collapses into recursive loops.]
The void around him rippled.
Ash threw his head back and laughed. Power flooded every cell like molten mana poured straight into his body. His wings unfurled wider, rose-pink veins blazed brighter.
The empty cosmos trembled, cracks of crimson and gold spider-webbing through the nothingness. For the first time since arriving in this universe, he felt the weight of true strength settle on his shoulders like a crown he was born to wear.
He stood up in the endless void as he looked at the seeds that floated around. There were eleven of them... seven from his laws including his calamity law and the other four were from each race he had.
"Hmm, I will come back here soon... First let's get started." He thought before exiting and reappearing inside of Kaelthyr's realm.
He looked around for a moment before he spotted Kaelthyr floating silently over a pond.
"So, you've returned...." Kaelthyr looked over to Ash and the moment he did he frowned. He felt his bloodline in his body recoil slightly as if in fear.... Not just that the wings, the eyes... it all made his soul shiver slightly.
'What the hell?' He thought as if it were before it would be understandable.
However, he now had a paragon level Vampiric Bloodline which was the highest level known in the Venia Galaxy.
Ash smirked seeing the frown on his face as he appraised him again.

'A fucking transmigrator?' Ash thought as he read all of this nonsense. And above all...
'And a Rebate System?! Oh brother...' He wanted to face palm, he honestly felt like he walked into a trap..... A master who is already OP secretly has a system.
Ash lip twitched as he spoke.
"Tsk, oh come on." Ash grumbled as he floated into the air and sat cross-legged.
Kaelthyr's brow rose hearing this.
"Brat, you step into the Calamity Rank, and your arrogance soars even higher."
Ash rolled his eyes.
'I guess, I won't spoil the fun for now...' He thought before saying.
"Right, I'm in the Calamity Rank now." He said before continuing. "As discussed before I don't need a parent or anything.... however, I do need some information."
Kaelthyr gestured for him to continue speaking.
"First.... can you explain all of this clan nonsense?"
"I don't remember much about my clan, and since coming here I've heard 'Eternal Clans' thrown around. What's that about?"
Kaelthyr nodded and answered.
"The rankings are indeed very important as they dictate the power of a faction. Clans, Sects, and other Factions all follow the same ranking system. From lowest to highest you have Unrated, Stellar, Galactic, Eternal, and then Arch Eternal.
They are mostly ranked by the amount of worlds or galaxies they have under their control and how many cosmic era's they've survived."
Ash nodded hearing this.
"Interesting... and a Clan can be started how?"
"The Records of Eternity... Honestly, anyone can start a clan.... it's not something that rules the Galaxy Hierarchy of Power as there are many lone warriors who put fear in even Eternal Clans... however they do provide a backing." Kaelthyr explained.
Ash understood it all before standing up and then asking one last question.
"Uhh, how do I leave?"
Kaelthyr waved his hand and opened a portal that sent him out.... While checked to see his new reward.
----
He reappeared in the skies above the Nocturne Domain, bronze skin catching the light of four suns, black wings with rose-pink veins spread wide.
His clear and main goal was to start a Clan before his lovers were done... and from what he'd seen from his status... they were closer than he thought.
However... there was something he could handle before that. One being these vampires... he had affection past 50% from several women in this clan.... however, his favorite was indeed Raven.
'Hmm... well it would be rude to leave without speaking to her at least.' As he thought this, he used his Laws of Space as his mana sense spread out then disappeared.
He reappeared in the sleeping chambers of Raven.
The room was a cathedral of luxury and hunger. Walls of black marble veined with living blood that pulsed softly. A massive bed drowned in crimson silk and black velvet; canopy draped with chains of frozen blood crystals that chimed like wind bells.
Tall arched windows of red stained-glass showed eternal twilight outside, and the air carried the scent of night-blooming roses soaked in fresh blood.
She was seated in her bed trying to cultivate but one could see from her face that she was distracted... since Ash left, she'd been worrying. Even though they said they would train him, she still worried.
Ash smiled seeing this. "You aren't perhaps worried for me, are you?" He teased.
Her eyes snapped open.
Then widened in disbelief as she took in the wings, the blood-drop eyes, the bronze skin that seemed carved from living metal and desire.
"A-Ash?"
He chuckled. "Oh, look who learned my name~"
She blushed crimson and turned her head away. "Shouldn't you be training? Elder Kaelthyr can teach you a lot… and having him as backing would save you from a lot as well."
Ash scoffed, shaking his head. "Tsk, forget that bastard." He sat on the bed and took her hand. "Anyway… I came to say goodbye for now."
"Goodbye?" Her voice cracked.
"Yes. To be honest with you—I have no clan, and I'm not from this world." He rubbed slow circles on her hand. "But I'm leaving to create my own clan."
Raven's eyes widened, then her mood plummeted.
"That means… we won't see each other again?"
"No, but it'll be a while until I'm free again…" He noticed her mood dropping further, sighed, and asked, "Why won't you come with me? Or is something holding you here?"
Raven stared into his blood-drop eyes for a long moment.
"Are you sure?" she whispered, then added, "My only task is to locate two women and bring them back to the home world."
Ash shook his head internally. 'What a coincidence… truly.'
"That's fine. We'll look for them as we go."
Raven paused, then dropped the last bomb. "One last thing… the others from the main clan must travel with me."
Ash didn't even blink. He nodded, stood, and offered his hand.
Raven took it.
The two disappeared in a ripple of rose-pink fire and absolute space.
And the Original Desire left the Nocturne Domain with one of it's Princess in tow.
