I lost my Copy System and awakened a Plundering System

"Carry that old man, and let's go," Draco instructed, sensing additional auras approaching.

Adrian nodded obediently, knocking the guest elder unconscious and carrying him. Draco grabbed Jane's hand, and in a flash, the three vanished, leaving no trace behind.

When the incoming auras arrived, they were stunned by the devastation. Deep pits, ruined buildings, and shattered sealing formations painted the aftermath of a battle unlike any they had ever seen.

As they searched the area further, they discovered the corpses of black-robed men, their heads severed and their faces frozen in terror. When they noticed the crest emblazoned on the black robes, they exchanged glances of shock and disbelief.

"Isn't this the insignia of the Night Clan from Calonia?" someone cried out.

The crowd's hearts grew heavy. What had happened, and who had killed the Night Clan members? They all shivered and began to disperse. None of them wanted to get involved in this.

In an unknown building in Mercenary City, the base of Adrian and his clan of vampires, the atmosphere was darker than night. Only red eyes flashed in the shadows.

But all the vampires there were stunned, watching their boss follow a young man respectfully as he dragged an old man behind him. Beside Adrian was a black-haired young girl.

"Who is that? Why is Boss so respectful to him?"

"Yeah, my body screams danger whenever I lay eyes on him."

"I wonder if he's like us."

"Who's that hot girl beside them?"

"If she grows up, she's going to be a devastating beauty."

"As expected of Boss, he was able to attract such a beauty."

Draco chuckled, hearing the murmurs from the crowd of vampires. "It seems you're doing well with the mission given."

Adrian nodded. Such tasks were easy for him, considering his past life as a Vampire God, progenitor of the Vampire Clan.

They entered an underground area meant for Adrian's privacy. The place resembled a normal house, complete with cushioned chairs, a television, a bathroom, a kitchen—everything one would expect in a home.

It was surprisingly breathable and not stuffy.

"What a nice building. You were able to find and buy this?" Draco grinned, taking a seat on the cushioned chair.

"I thought I'd check on how you're doing," he said. "Also, don't worry. Adrianna is alright," Draco added when he saw Adrian's worried expression.

Adrian genuinely cared about his sister. The reason he had sent her to follow Draco was that she would be safer with him rather than staying behind. The mission Adrian had been given appeared simple but was inherently difficult. As he rose in power and influence, he would inevitably provoke clans and individuals who opposed the rise of another force—especially the Main Clan.

"Give me the details of your expansion," Draco ordered.

Adrian began to explain everything about his progress. Draco was surprised when he heard Adrian had come up with the idea of exchanging blood for food. It was such a brilliant idea, one that caused no harm to either side.

Now, this practice had elevated the status of the slums. Draco himself had childhood memories tied to such struggles, particularly after the incident at the orphanage.

The slum area consisted of people who couldn't awaken or whose strength was too low to hunt outside Calonia for Volkoids—materials used to exchange for Origin Coins, the foundation of Cerulean cultivation currency, or Cerus, the mortal currency of Cerulean.

"You did a good job," Draco praised Adrian.

Jane, on the other hand, watched this scene in speechless amazement. When she had entered the building, she had sensed multiple strange auras. Although they weren't overwhelmingly powerful, they were stronger than the five concealed men who had fought Draco. This revelation surprised her deeply.

She glanced at Draco, feeling as though a veil surrounded this mysterious young man. Adrian had called him "Master" in front of her, and now she was hearing the others address Adrian as "Boss."

This meant Draco was the leader of this group of people, almost on par with the Night Clan. She shivered at the thought. If this were true, Draco had the strength to establish a clan himself, even if it wasn't a high-level one yet.

"Master, what should we do with him?" Adrian asked, pointing to the guest elder, who was unconscious, his body in tatters from his injuries.

"Do you have a way to make him spill something or search his memory?" Draco asked. Adrian nodded, confirming they had a method to extract information.

"Good. I need him to show me where the Night Family kept her sister," Draco said, pointing to Jane to indicate it was her sister he was searching for.

Adrian glanced at Jane in surprise. He couldn't help but wonder what kind of relationship she had with Draco for him to go to such lengths to find her sister.

Draco noticed Adrian's gaze on Jane. Jane herself shivered, feeling as though she were being observed by a primordial being.

"She is the Dark God Heir," Draco chuckled.

Jane's eyes widened in shock as she stared at Draco. This was her greatest secret, one she hadn't even told her sister. When she and her sister had been escaping from the Night Family, they had used some method to destroy her cultivation.

Despite this, Jane had managed to escape, even though she had become mortal in the process. This act of defiance was what had enraged the Night Clan.

Afterward, she had heard a foreign voice claiming she had awakened the Dark God System and had been given a chance to recultivate. The voice had assured her that her strength would surpass her previous level.

But here was Draco casually revealing her secret.

"You…" Jane stammered, but no words followed. She was utterly speechless.

She suddenly recalled the system mentioning that other systems like it existed. It seemed Draco possessed one of those systems. It was as if a veil had been lifted from her eyes.

"No wonder he's so defying," she thought.

Adrian, who had overheard, was first surprised, then shocked, as a look of realization dawned on his face. Discover exclusive tales on empire

"Yes, her sister is the Shadow Demon," Draco said with a grin. "But the Night Clan kidnapped her, trying to steal her talent before she could awaken it."

Killing intent flashed through Adrian's eyes as a half-materialized blood mausoleum appeared behind him.

Jane shivered at the overwhelming malice Adrian exuded. At the same time, she felt confused by the term "Shadow Demon" and its connection to her sister.

Was this why Draco was going to such lengths to save her sister? Even though Jane had initially thought she wouldn't blame Draco if he chose to leave, hearing this left her feeling slightly disappointed. She didn't know why.

Adrian forced himself to calm down, then turned to the old man. "Don't worry. I'll make his life miserable," he said, his fangs extending as he licked his lips.

Jane shivered again and felt a pang of pity for the old man. She could sense that he would regret ever being born into this world.

Adrian picked up the old man and left the room, ready to extract the information they needed.

"Just calm down. No need to be so tense," Draco chuckled, noticing Jane's anxiety.
