Chapter 30: Time to execute his plan!
After learning about the skeletons' patterns and intervals, Leon shared his plan with Louise.
"You can't help me with the vampire woman, so you'll wait here in case the black skeleton awakens." Leon summarized the plan, then checked his clock in the system.
Louise didn't dare to question her master, for even his voice sounded different now. She was sure the black skeleton would wake up, though.
When it was the perfect time to start the plan, Louise softly cheered her master. He gave her a confident thumbs-up, then took the first steps forward, creeping closer to the vampire woman.
He didn't make any sound, controlling his breath and steps. He kept his attention on the surroundings, the vampire and the skeleton. Though his eyes couldn't split and halve, Leon didn't find any problems doing that to his consciousness.
And he felt like his brain advanced in another world, to say nothing of his confidence enabling him to become more proficient with his peak humanity's body.
'The black skeleton shouldn't wake up. Well, he'll wake up before or when I seize control over those chains, won't he?' Leon gazed at the chains wrapping around the vampire woman, not naively believing that everything would go smoothly.
His plan was to overwrite those chains and wake Celes to speak with her.
The latter shouldn't be a problem as he would also stuff her mouth with his blood. This red liquid did wonder for vampires, and many of them regularly mated and co-existed with existences of high-quality blood. If Leon wasn't one of them, he'd blink and raise a white flag before her.
But Leon was confident in his blood. No matter what kind of a state Celes was in, he'd bring her back — he put a lot of trust in himself and her.
Her chains shouldn't stop him, too. First, their quality was worse than the crimson chains, so Leon would show his strongest card and match them.
Nothing barred his vision, too, for Celes stood naked. Her chains pulled her arms up, and she barely felt the ground with her toes. She was so defenseless that it was cruel.
With good eyesight and comprehension, Leon recorded all chains around her, not having any other inappropriate thoughts — no decent human would 'enjoy' a woman in such a state.
At last, Leon was a few meters away from her. "They should be cautious and shrewd. No way I can safely come close enough to feed her with my blood… Meaning, I can only rush forward and start the show!"
Leon sprinted forward, triggering an unknown formation.

The black skeleton had been sleeping to regenerate his mana.
But he opened his eyes when the cave shook and flashed with blue lights. The black skeleton's hues were blue and chilling compared to other skeletons. He instantly recognized what had promptly brought him from his rest!
"A human."
Amidst the blue lights, grieving souls circling around the cave, filling it with negative emotions, the human appeared to save the vampire woman. He stood behind her, blood dripping off his left palm and the crimson chains slithering around her voluptuous curves.
pAn,Da-n0v e1,c And while it seemed a laughable and heroic act of someone destined to fail and die dog's death, the man's blood awakened Celes even before he could feed her with it.
Her little nose unconsciously sniffed Leon's blood, then her eyes sprang open, revealing beautiful red irises. Those eyes turned to Leon's left hand, gazing at the blood with uncontrollable thirst.
Leon also seemed aware of his blood's quality and what kind of impact it could leave on her heart.
He clasped her mouth with his bloody hand and then parted his lips.
"Look ahead, silly girl." Leon gently laughed, then slightly turned her head so both would face the black skeleton. "He stripped you and wanted to take control over you with some shit ritual. I'll give you the freedom you deserve. I don't mind donating some blood, too."
He took his hand off her lips.
Celes stuttered as it's been a while since she talked, "Blood? Give me booze… Fuck, how come your blood is tastier than some good liquor?"
"Maybe it's because you haven't drank in a while." Leon laughed.
And with that short talk, Leon convinced the vampire woman to connect to him. He didn't need chains or a collar, for he never planned to control her will or loyalty. Leon just used the genuine power of his class, formed the 'contracted chains' that connected him and Louise, then pierced Celes' back with it.
She turned into a card real quick.
[You have contracted a second monster, the vampire Celes Diamante.]
[Celes Diamante is an epic grade monster.]
[You can see her card and development paths in your system.]
[Celes Diamante is an epic existence with extraordinary skills within her pure and royal vampire bloodline. You can pick one of her epic skills for your own use and tailored development.]
"That for later." Leon grasped her card and put it in his inventory, his eyes trained on the black skeleton.
That existence had been shocked — Leon saw that. But now, the undead stood composed, and his eyes pierced through Leon. In those hues, hatred and understanding bloomed.
The black skeleton stepped forward and shook the cave with his physical strength. "I understand now. The otherworlder… And what otherworlder, at that! Our world has been tainted with the peak humanity's body again. The Human Emperor wasn't enough… Now, who am I honored to face?"
"I'd rather get some achievements to flaunt my nickname." Other than revealing what he couldn't hide, Leon wouldn't speak nicely with the black skeleton.
He geared up with the crimson chains burning hot on his right arm and his senses sharpening to intercept every move of the undead.
The black skeleton cackled, stepping a few steps closer to Leon. "So you reckon you'll get more achievements? Bold of you to think like that with your level… Though I know your stats must have broken the limits of humanity, and you possibly wield an inventory full of monsters, I'm not alone either.
"And more importantly, you're a newbie. I'll teach you the difference between a skeleton with white bones and black bones, Otherworlder." The black skeleton's aura heightened, the blue souls wailed and screeched louder, and his steps kept shaking the whole cave.
Leon smirked. "I have a guess what's the difference."
