Kapitel 5: Class Change

[Dignity Stat has been opened]
[Regeneration Stat has been opened]
[Indomitable Stat has been opened]
Vecna was in a euphoric state from all the changes his mind felt, settling nicely on the fact everyone chasing him died, dropping along with their downfall some of their gear that filled the sea of blood.
"This doesn't feel like myself." said the blonde man whose body looked reinvigorated, no longer the mummy that haunted even nightmares.
Extending his right arm he could see the <Book of Night> missing out, but its disappearance wasn't of concern for Vecna for obvious reasons, his arms were bare, no longer covered by his armor.
"Wow, it feels as if I was imprisoned for decades. My skin is so white, those model agencies might flock to my doorsteps, asking for photos."
His arms were lean, flexing slightly his forearm muscles which had greater definition under the new skin type.
His now charming crimson eyes watched the muscle definition, going down onto his hands and then to his nails that were sharp, predatory.
'Hmm. I do wonder, how can Vampires wipe their asses with those claws?'
'... I am retarded.'
Realization hit him in the face. He was now a Vampire, the Bottom of the Pyramid, yet still a Vampire in all rights. A higher being compared to the weak humans who had to struggle with all sorts of illnesses and challenges.
'Phew, glad that I don't have to do N.1 and N.2 in the game. Otherwise... I would be a roller coaster.'
'Fangs? Do I have fangs?'
Another question prompted in his brain which was responded by a wide opening of his mouth, similar to a monster, followed next by him inserting his fingers and clamping down on the bite.
Two sharp canines pierced his flex, resulting in a reflex of taking his hand out of his mouth.
[You have lost 45 HP]
"Goddamn! Poor me, I've become a monster." *Sniff*
With fake tears under his crimson eyes, they soon evaporated when the excited Vecna turned toward a puddle of blood. He crouched down and used this puddle of blood for a mirror, watching his reflection.
'Weren't vampires supposed to not be able to see their reflection in mirrors?'
Thinking that, he waited for an answer from someone. It was only himself in this quiet Altar Chamber and his thoughts which poured constantly with various silly observations before they slowed down as Vecna got serious.
'Sheesh, aren't I hot? Look at this handsome lad.'
'I bet any young maiden inside Valoria would be smitten by me. What am I even talking about? Not even the Duchess is off the limits with this appearance.'
Doing various posses under the make-shift mirror of blood, holding his chin as if he was a Chad, he started laughing pleased, revealing his sharp vampire fangs.
'Not bad. Not bad at all.'
'Okay, let's chill out for a bit. The Book of Night is missing from the right arm.'
'I am only wearing my underwear...'
'And I'm a Vampire Lord!'
'Open Inventory. Search Item: Book of Night'
His eyes took a serious glint when he noticed the icon of this memorable item appears differently. It had a small book icon containing a crimson eye, while effects of darkness and blood magic sparked around the book.
The color around the icon was of orange color, but as he stared closer at the icon, there was a hint of this orange color getting darker.
'Orange? Black? Ahhhh, I am hyped. Mr. Book, you better don't let me down after sucking me dry.'
Taking a deep breath with a serious expression, his eyes suddenly enlarged at the new sight before him. The system information regarding the mysterious book that assisted him in changing his fate, was dumbfounding to the player who had barely seen the effects of Unique Items.
[Book of Night]
Rating: Legendary (Incomplete)
Type: Manuscript (Class Specific)
Caine the Undying Father remembers and recounts the first nights he was betrayed and his blood awakened. These dark chronicles reveal Caine's hidden teachings and mysteries of the Damned.
The first and original copy of the Book of Night was penned by his hand and in his own divine blood. Book bound in the skins of the Fallen Gods and Dragons slaying in combat.
The book draws on Caine's dark magic imbuing it with a fragmented Godly Authority.
The Book of Night can be used to provide a deeper meaning in the path of Vampirism. To grant special gifts unrelated to Vampire Clans. Caine scribbed the Book of Night to imbue the greatest Vampire Spawns with their own unique powers.

.
*Hissss*
A hiss reminiscent of a snake poured out from Vecna's lips, barely capable of holding down in shouting in excitement at the bonuses and effects given out by possessing this Book that many players would certainly throw it away to make room in their inventory for other "noteworthy" items with a higher market price.
"Mama mia."
"Isn't this too wicked?"
'Nah, wait. I still haven't checked the Thorn.'
Once that thought left out, he searched for the Quest Item <Thorn of Blood> only to discover it missed from his bag.
Frowning at the idea that he lost an important piece that led to this transformation, after some contemplation he relaxed.
'It should be something that was consumed when I stabbed myself in the Heart.'
'Next on the list. The new class.'
He was no longer thinking about silly ideas, far from it, his expression morphed into fitting the new persona he was granted, the Reincarnation of a Vampire Lord. The coldness and seriousness that Vecna displayed might surprise even the Assassin who by now was out of the Cavern.
'I'll bear a huge responsibility for certain.'
'Open Class Information.'

'By all Holy. No, by the Wicked. This class is bonkers.'
'My past Swordsman Class was only able to offer me some breadcrumbs. Meanwhile this one.'
Vecna had an evil smile as he watched the info given by the system regarding this new class.
'This one makes me a Monster. A Malicious, Bloodthirsty Mofo that will be the Nightmare of many fuckers dumb enough to mess with me.'
'Caine. You have my utmost respect for choosing me to carry your legacy.'
'I might seem a stupid Buffon on the outside... But trust me. I'll make good use of this power. My family will not have to worry about food and other expenses.'
'No, I will make sure that such an image will be in the past.'
His mind felt empowered, and the old commitments he made with himself to bring a better life for his family, were reinvigorated.
In the same spirit, he began checking the details of the skills he gained, starting with what could be seen as his "Ultimate".

.
'Too good. This skill is broken with the combination of the bonus from the Class. Could it be that this is some of the Authority that it constantly says has been shattered and fragmented?'
'Besides, I can't use the skill for now... The mana cost to sustain it, along with the requirements feels heavy. But it depends on circumstances, as a Swordsman I wasn't focused on Intelligence to raise my Mana that's why I didn't even hit the 1k MP mark.'
'I need to rethink my strategy for this Class to work like a glove for me.'

'Also, it doesn't let the enemy off in case it survives with the Bleeds and Slow.'

'Bonus Stat points???'
'This is nuts... Apart from the 'Hunger' thing that I believe is when I don't drink blood. Meaning. All the food I have in my bag is worthless?'
'Nah, let's not be so pessimistic. There should be some worth to the food. If not I'll just sell it in bulk to some newbie players.'
Nodding to himself while stroking his chin, he closed the window for the Blood Sucking skill, proceeding to look over the other skills he gained, along with what original skills he retained from his Swordsman Class.

[Awakened]
Type: Passive
*** You are now capable of utilizing the Disciplines of a Vampire ***
The origin of the vampiric powers of the Dark Father also referred to as Disciplines, passed down to his new vessel.
Proficiency in a Discipline gives the vampire additional abilities of great strategic value.
The user has unlocked three Disciplines that do not require training to learn, and if they would so choose to acquire further Disciplines, they have to fulfill the condition of tasting the Blood of a vampire who possesses them.
Additional information about the owned Disciplines will be revealed in the [Book of Night] so long the user desires to search for information.
★ The user has been given 2 Disciplines by Default. [Celerity] [Potence]
'Mehhh. Let me pick, man. If those disciplines are garbage... I swear, I'll troll the Book of Night on a daily occasion once its Ego is up.'
[Celerity – LV.1]
Type: Passive/Active
The mortal world moves too slowly for the perception of a Vampire. In times of stress, vampires with Celerity can move with amazing speed, becoming blurs of motion to anyone.
Celerity is a Discipline that makes its user, capable to strike down their foes before they can mount a counterattack.
As part of the Curse upon Caine, heavy reliance on Celerity can lead to impatience with the slow pace of nightly life, leaving the vampire hungry and exhausted after each use. Becoming too accustomed to the slow world that a vampire sees when Celerity is active can lead to disorientation when the world "speeds up" as the Discipline ends.

[Potence – LV.1]

Potence allows vampires to leap great distances, lift massive weights, and strike opponents with terrifying force. With the capability to break open fortress gates with their bare hands and cut war horses in two with one stroke of a greatsword.
Potence's aspect in the curse of vampirism is that a vampire slowly unlearns to be gentle. Those who rely too much on Potence begin to show complete disregard for what they perceive as the weakness of others, putting all their strength in any physical action, regardless of how mundane it is.
