Epic of Vampire Dragon: Reborn as a Vampire Dragon with a System

(A few minutes ago…)

Nesephise, Erebus, Lilith, Edward, Rot, and Natalia were currently protecting the village from ten powerful beasts that descended from the skies!

The spaceships had arrived just a few minutes ago, and immediately opened their doors, unleashing a large group of monstrous creatures.

Half of their group, had divided, Abyss, Belphegor, Ifrit, Yuki, and Boxxy flew upwards into the skies as they went to deal with the other ten, but ten of these beasts had descended already.

Erebus was moving fast around the village, he decided to open a portal to his Internal Dungeon, and all the people began to run there desperately.

"Please hurry!" he said.

TRUUUMMM!!!

"GROAR!"

"Gyyyyaaah! Mommy!"

Suddenly, a monstrous lizard-like chimera beast covered in black scales and many eyes across its body, the size of around 20 meters, landed over the floor, slipping through the attacks from Erebus allies, the beast rushed towards a little kid and caught it with its long frog-like tongue!

"Noooo! Let him go!"

The mother conjured some magic, as spear made of stone flew towards the lizard, hitting one of its eyes.

CLASH!

Of course, the spear shattered into pieces and there was absolutely no damage deal to it.

But the beast grew annoyed!

"GROAAA!"

It suddenly generated a spear made of chaos, firing it at the mother!

"Aghh!"

BOOOM!!!

…

However, the mother opened her eyes in fear as she found she was saved by a barrier of darkness, there was Erebus there!

But Erebus was also in the other way!

Wait, what?

"I guess I will have to use this…" thought Erebus, he had divided himself in two?

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

However, several Erebus emerged around him, as if they could easily replicate in seconds…!

An army of dozens of them appeared!

They were a whole squadron!

One of them shaped its arms as gigantic blades made of materialized shadows, resembling black metal, and using them to slice the tongue of the lizard!

SLASH!

The lizard's tongue was easily sliced, making the beast agonize.

"GRYYYYAAAAAA!"

It cried in pain, as Erebus retrieved the child and gave it to her mother.

"Hurry and go to my main body."

"U-Understood!"

The mother flew with her son towards Erebus main body's portal leading to his internal dungeon, while Erebus clones confronted the beast!

Erebus had discovered something while he developed his powers as a divine dungeon and a god, he could combine such powers in amazing ways, while also abusing that his main body was in fact the Dungeon Core inside of his chest and not the actual body he showed.

Due to this, his body could transform and shape as mass of darkness and chaos, as he also inherited a part of the power of chaos that Chaos shared to him when he infected his original body with his miasma and evolved this dungeon.

Now, Erebus had a new capability, fusing the power of Dungeon Monster Summoning with his own body, he was able to summon Shadow Clones out of himself. When he reinforced this ability with more Mana and then Darkness Magic, he ended creating what's called a Divine Technique, special techniques that consist of many skills and small techniques conjured together to form a greater and more powerful effect.

This divine technique allowed him to summon his Shadow Clones that shared a bit over 50% of his total strength! And each one of them could summon to almost a limit of 40! All the dozens he made quickly decided to swarm the lizard!

"GROOOAK!"

The lizard roared angrily back at Erebus, as his clones began to swarm its entire body.

Most of them suddenly shapeshifted into ten-meter-big black dragons, while a few others remained in the distance, attacking with long-ranged attacks and healing the front-liners.

It was as if Erebus was a whole team of incredibly well-coordinated fighters!

While his companions fought a bit above the village and didn't let the ten monsters that descended step into the floor of the village, he had to fend off this monster himself.

"ROAR!"

"GROAR"

"GRYAR!"

His clones taking the form of dragons swarmed the lizard's body! The lizard groaned back and began to unleash a variety of attacks with its tail and claws, its clashing attacks easily destroyed a few of Erebus clones in an instant, but the rest were still annoying and persistent.

They began tearing apart the lizard's flesh and some even unleashed their breath attacks, inflicting great damage. Another group conjured curses that inhibited regeneration because Erebus already realized the monster could regenerate fast.

BOOM!

However, a strong slash and swipe of the lizard's tail and five more of Erebus clones were gone in an instant!

Erebus gritted his teeth, the last person from the village ran inside, and even the twins and the orphan kids too, so the entire village was left empty, his main body could finally move.

He rushed forward like a meteor of darkness, as his clones continued to emerge over and over again above the lizard, attacking it and keeping it in place. The scene looked like an army of ants slowly taking down a large beetle!

However, they were dying way too fast, and Erebus was wasting too much Mana on it, so he quickly decided to kill the thing himself.

He flew towards the lizard and called his clones back to him through another "Divine Technique".

This divine technique was certainly special and abused his power to generate clones.

While the first divine technique, named Divine Shadow Clones was the first he developed, after that, Erebus branched into many forms and Divine Techniques from that very one.

This is how Gods built their techniques and powers, they made of a Divine Technique their core, and slowly branched it into multiple parts by adding more abilities and skills they possessed, improving this Core Divine Technique!

"Divine Shadow Clone Fusion."

FLASH!

All the clones turned into darkness and merged back to him.

Anyone would expect that he wouldn't gain anything from it, after all the clones were just… shadows.

Right?

However…
