Villain in a Fantasy World; I Level Up by Conquering Villainesses-Chapter 79: Ritual Sacrifice
Julian saw it when the familiar coffin where Lilith hibernated suddenly entered the battlefield.
He was shocked and at the same time concerned, which made him keep track the movement of the coffin which enabled him to witness it when the coffin crashed into the spatial barrier isolating the Central Bank.
KABOOM!
Only then did Julian realize that the coffin was most likely an Artifact, and not just any Artifact. With the System Snooping Tool, he confirmed that this was an S Rank Artifact.
After that, everything happened fast and before he knew it, Elena descended from the sky like a meteorite wielding a pair of chains.
Even with his Qi Sight active, he struggled to follow her movement.
Unlike the coffin, through his fragmented memories, Julian remembered that the pair of chains was another S Rank Artifact from Dreadmoor’s armory.
When Elena landed, he only realized what happened after the powerful Councilor of the Kingdom of Falaniondor collapsed in a pool of his blood.
’She actually did it!’ He was shocked.
’That’s a Level 95 Centaur of the Warrior Class!’
This was a man who was just 5 levels away from becoming a Sovereign, and yet Elena killed him just like that.
With his Qi Sight, Julian saw the changes happening to Elena’s qi and instinctively used the System Snooping Tool on her.
DING!

~----~
Julian could not help it as for the first time since this large-scale brawl started in the city, he smiled.
He saw as the surviving Councilor and the 2 Elves serving Queen Mirabel retreated for their lives, and that was when it happened.
CREAK!
...
CREAK!
Illuminated by the light of the silver moon, the lid of the black coffin suddenly slid open as a pale hand grabbed the side of the coffin.
Despite knowing the person that slumbered inside the coffin, despite being intimate with her and having sex with her already, seeing that hand, Julian could not help it as his heart skipped a beat.
’What’s she doing?’
From inside, the lid of the coffin was pushed open completely as a pale-skinned Vampire with glowing crimson eyes like blood staggered out.
Lilith’s eyes looked feral and bloodthirsty as she stepped out of the coffin.
Staggering, she approached Councilor Wilkinson’s corpse and knelt beside the corpse before pulling at the air in front of her.
Shared Link!
Shared Link is a Level 35 Skill of the Witch Class that enables a C Rank Coven Adept to create a link between people or objects, it enables a Witch to either link damage between people or effects.
With this skill, Lilith accessed her ritual chamber deep inside Dreadmoor.
When she pulled her hand back, 3 blood-red candles followed as calmly and meticulously, she set the 3 candles around the corpse in an occultic formation.
She pulled at the air and activated Shared Link again, and this time, she pulled out a peculiar crimson Witch’s quill that seemed to have been made from the feathers of a Phoenix.
The mere presence of the quill made the atmosphere hot.
Lilith held the quill with her pale right hand, ignoring the heat as she began drawing a complicated sigil around the corpse with the corpse’s leaking blood.
Then, her qi flared to seal the sigil.
Blood Sigil!
Blood Sigil, a Level 30 Witch Skill enables her to draw power-enhancing or recovery sigils using blood.
The reason why Lilith was interested was because this was no mere blood, this was blood from the corpse of a Level 95 A Rank Centaur Paragon who was just 5 levels away from becoming a Sovereign.
Lilith didn’t stop after drawing the Blood Sigil.
As the Last Vampire, she was the last Witch in the entire world who walked the Blood Witch pathway.
At Level 50 after becoming a Blood Witch, Blood Witches unlock 2 skills- Blood Offering and Ritual Sacrifice.
Blood Offering when activated enables a Blood Witch to convert HP or vitality into massive qi at a favorable and overpowered conversion rate, while Ritual Sacrifice is a ritual to permanently boost spells or recovery.
To use Ritual Sacrifice, apart from the usual materials, a Blood Witch needed a medium and tonight, Lilith’s medium was the A Rank Centaur’s corpse.
As an A Rank Blood Witch, she didn’t need all the materials to perform a successful Ritual Sacrifice.
All she needed was the blood candles, the blood of the medium, and the medium itself. And right now, all the requirements were already met.
"Genialis fati..." she chanted.
"Magnus Sanguis Inevitabilitatis..."
"Heres sanguinis regis..."
"Obsecro te..."
"Accipe sacrificum..."
"Sana carnem meam et repara spiritum meum..."
Immediately, the corpse caught fire as sinister yellowish green flames engulfed it, burning it and melting its flesh and bones.
BZZZ!
Lilith clasped her pale hands together in a fervent praying gesture, then she leaned in closer, ignoring the burning yellowish green flames as she stabbed her fangs into the neck of the burning Centaur.
Crimson Healing!
She activated her bloodline skill as her eyes glinted red like blood.
From afar, with his Qi Sight active, Julian watched the gory and sinister act as the corpse burned while Lilith sucked every single blood out of the corpse.
Her fangs glinted in the night like daggers, stained by the blood of the corpse.
It looked like a scene straight out of a horror movie.
By the time the corpse burned to ashes, Lilith already sucked all the blood of the corpse as her skin became rosier and less like a corpse herself.
At the same time, Julian felt a fluctuation in her internal qi.
’Did she recover more?’
Julian instinctively used the System Snooping Tool again.
DING!

~----~
Julian’s eyes widened. ’She recovered 4 levels instantly???’ He was shocked
Julian felt complicated, indirectly this confirmed his previous realization. ’The only way to dominate in this world is through war and conquest’. He thought
’To rise, I have to kill’.
’To be feared, I have to kill’.
’To protect, I have to kill’.
’To be the best, I have to slaughter’.
And then a familiar rift suddenly tore open in the sky.
CRACK!
An entrance to the astral realm was torn open!
