◈ 129. [Evil Side] Celendion
6 days later.
Lake Kingdom Underground Dungeon. District 10.
The ‘Red Mansion’, the home of the vampire corps. The innermost ‘master’s room’.
Squeak… … . Squeak… … .
The owner of this place, Selendion, was hanging from the ceiling hanging from his neck.
《… … .》
The servants, Alpha and Beta, looked up at Selendion with sullen eyes.
Alpha and Beta were young men and women with dark blue hair like Celendion.
Wearing neat butler clothes and maid clothes, respectively, they were the closest aides who waited on Celendion.
The two seemed to be accustomed to Selendion’s suicide attempt, and they took it lightly.
Celendion, who was hanging from the ceiling, also looked down at the two with languid eyes.
“Did you try to commit suicide again, Lord?”
“okay.”
《Did you get any results?》
“It’s always the same… … .》
“Shall I drop you off?”
《Yes.》
The two carefully supported Celendion’s body and set it down.
Since Selendion has the appearance of a child, Alpha and Beta are like older brothers and sisters.
In reality, Selendion had lived a much more difficult time.
Alpha sat Celendion on the sofa and sighed lightly.
《Do you have any more novel ways to commit suicide? I’m tired of dropping it off every morning… … .》
“You cut your wrist last week.”
《It’s troublesome because you have to wash the sheets.》
《What if you draw in the bathroom?》
“You have to clean the bathroom… … .》
Beta, the maid who was listening beside her, nodded in response to the male butler Alpha’s stoic retort.
Beta’s slender neck was etched with long horizontal scars.
As if they were cut and glued together.
Because of this wound, Beta was unable to speak. They communicate only through hand gestures and gestures.
Seeing the two attendants alternately, Selendion grabbed his own pale cheek with his hand.
“Which of my suicide attempts was most comfortable for you?”
《It was the most comfortable when you tried starvation.
Because there is nothing more to clean up. I didn’t have to prepare a meal.”
Next to Alpha, who spoke calmly, Beta made a violent gesture.
Pointing at the flower beds outside the window.
Alpha translated Beta’s gestures.
«According to Beta, the most troublesome thing was when she tried to commit suicide every day. It was embarrassing to have to clean the flower bed every day.”
A faint bitter smile crossed Celendion’s numb face.
Celendion attempted suicide every day. But he didn’t succeed. There were two reasons.
The first is his own enormous regenerative power.
Due to the regenerative power of quickly recovering even if a limb is blown off, it was not even possible to die by suicide.
Second, his own endless life that he scattered and scattered in the corps.
Even if on rare occasions a combination of extreme measures and incredible luck led to his death, the life he had stored up in the Legion brought him back to life.
《When will this painful life end?》
Alpha and Beta skillfully changed Celendion’s clothes.
While the two attendants were tidying up the clothes, Selendion muttered in a low voice.
“A life you can’t even end on your own. It’s really painful.”
《The humans here in the Lake Kingdom made such a fuss to gain eternal life that they ended up like that.》
Alpha smiled as she tied Celendion’s tie.
“Indeed, Lord still suffers even after obtaining eternal life. This comparison is very funny.”
“That’s because I never wished for eternal life.”
Celendion wiped his tired eyes.
On his boyish young face, only the red eyes were as deep and melancholy as those of an old man.
“I thought I had just finished my long and messy life and went to sleep… … The King of Kings revives me here at will. And five hundred years have already passed.”
The change of clothes is over.
Transformed into a suit that fit her body, Celendion sighed as she looked into her palm.
《Can I die this time?》
“Are you talking about this campaign?”
Today was the departure day of the clan corps.
The king ordered the start of the invasion in three days, so we had to set out today to reach the enemy’s fortress in three days.
Alpha and Beta both laughed at each other.
“Would those humans be our opponents? Besides, we have been hoarding our strength for a long time for this ‘flood’.”
《… … .》
《I’m sorry to the Lord who wants death, but it will be hard this time too.》
Alpha and Beta bowed their heads to Celendion at the same time.
《Please remain as our eternal and immortal monarch.》

《… … .》
Selendion, who had been silent, shook his head slightly.
《However, the opponent this time is definitely not an ordinary bet.》
Selendion recalled the enemy general he encountered a few days ago.
– Even if it’s not your request, I’ll definitely kill you, so don’t worry, Vampire King! You’d better think of the screams you’ll make when you’re slashed by my sword sooner or later!
Apparently- a human named Ash.
To be able to sow hatred without backing down an inch even after meeting his eyes.
‘Resembles.’
Ash resembles the great humans who killed him a long time ago.
Selendion pressed his left breast with his hand, which was beating vaguely.
How long has it been since your heart beat like this?
maybe, really… … .
– Wipe your neck clean and crawl to my castle wall. Then I’ll take responsibility and put an end to your miserable life!
Wouldn’t that man be able to kill himself?
《The entire army is on standby, Lord.》
Alpha and Beta opened the bedroom door wide. Butlers and maids smiled softly at their lord.
“Come on, let’s go. You have to lead us.”
《… … .》
Celendion slowly got up.
The enormous amount of fatigue he had lived through weighed down both of his shoulders, but he shook his shoulders lightly to shake them off.
Celendion strode forward. After that, the two attendants followed.
***
outside the mansion.
About 1,000 vampires and ghouls were already waiting in line on the wide road.
Everyone was on one knee on the floor, heads bowed, waiting with bated breath for the arrival of their monarch.
《… … .》
Celendion looked around at them.
It’s been five hundred years since I’ve been crouching here in the Lake Kingdom.
In the meantime, he used ‘Nightmare’ as a material to inflate the size of his corps.
Hundreds of vampires and thousands of ghouls under the command of other Lords who had been sleeping in nightmares joined them.
The legion has grown endlessly.
However, in the end, they were the main force of Selendion.
Choi Jeongye 1,000.
Those who shared Selendion’s own life.
《I’ve been waiting for you, Lord.》
One of the seven vampires who knelt in front of them spat out.
《Order to depart.》
《… … It’s been a long time since I’ve been out on the ground.”
Selendion, who looked at his soldiers one by one, asked.
《What is the departure route? Are you going out through the main gate of the Lake Kingdom?”
“yes. Just something to keep in mind… … .》
Alpha hesitantly added.
《… … The ‘Nameless One’ is blocking the front door.》
Selendion’s red eyes narrowed.
Anonymous.
The last stander of the Lake Kingdom, who alone blocks most of the monsters in this hell.
《That woman is really practicing noblesse oblige.》
Celendion let out a low laugh.
“Those long years… … You’ve been fighting without giving up. What is the responsibility for that? Giving up and being comfortable like everyone else.”
《However, the resistance of the ‘nameless man’ is gradually reaching its limit.》
Alpha glanced northward. It was the direction where the main gate of the Lake Kingdom was located.
“For the past five hundred years, I have been able to prevent most of the flooding by myself, but lately it has started to get out of hand. You won’t be able to stop us this time.”
Alpha reached out and explained the departure route.
《The rest of the corps, except for the 1,000 main corps, are all waiting in the northern central square. After a while, they will advance to the main gate as bait and engage in battle with the ‘Nameless One’. While they are wasting their time… … .》
“The main unit passed through the main gate. You’re going to pay for it.”
Selendion tilted her head.
《Did other corps go out like this?》
“It’s embarrassing, but it is. I threw the corps to be bait to the ‘nameless one’, and while the bait corps took time, a small main body went out of the kingdom.》
Alpha gritted her teeth and trembled.
《If it wasn’t for the ‘Nameless One’, tens of thousands of monsters would have attacked royalties every time. If that were the case, people would have perished long ago.”
《There is no need for numbers in the tens of thousands to destroy the public interest.》
Celendion smiled vaguely and looked around at his elites.
《1,000 of us is enough.》
At those words, the vampires under Celendion’s command all smiled.
Yes, what is the need for tens of thousands of monsters to destroy the world?
10 vampires. One thousand ghouls.
With these people, there is nothing lacking in creating a sword of hell on earth.
《Let’s go.》
Celendion, who stepped lightly, took the lead.
《I want to breathe the ground air after a long time.》
1,000 kinsmen followed Selendion in an orderly manner.
***
North of the Lake Kingdom.
in front of the front door. central plaza.
When Selendion and the 1,000 Legion main body arrived here, the battle was already in progress.
Flash-!
Quagmire!
Huge beams of light shot out like gunfire, and the monsters brushed by the beams of light melted away like powder and disappeared.
With worn-out robes and white hair flying in all directions, nameless people were fighting.
《Damn the traitor child!》
“Kill! Tear limbs and draw blood!”
Hundreds of vampires rushed at them, casting blood magic.
oh oh!
Aaaaa-!
Countless frost ghouls breathed white smoke from their mouths and closed the encirclement from all sides.
but,
Flash! Flash-!
A beam of light emanated from the worn-out sword in his hand, and Nameless slaughtered them all.
Every time he swung his sword, a huge beam of light came out.
A bright blue flash flashed across the sky above the Lake Kingdom, which was completely covered in darkness, illuminating the city in an instant.
“You guys are the result of the mistakes made by this country.”
Nameless muttered ferociously.
“Where are you trying to leak out? Keep your nightmares only in this Lake Kingdom, monsters… … !”
Flash-!
A beam of light hit the center of the decoy army.
The monsters swept away by the light disappeared without leaving a trace.
Selendion admired the sight.
“It’s one of the few weapons that can end my life. So beautiful.”
One of Selendion’s most attempted suicide methods was confrontation with obscurity.
However, if he died at the hands of an unknown, the king would surely bring him back to life.
The king didn’t care if the corps leader was killed by any other factor, but he only prevented him from being killed by an unknown person.
So there is no point in colliding here.
While Nameless and the Decoy Corps engaged in a fierce battle, Selendion and the main force quietly passed by.
Kugoogu Palace-
Did you detect the departure?
The rusty northern gate slowly began to open.
“Celendion… … !”
Anonymous, noticing that the main unit was leaving, shouted in this direction.
“Where are you going, you vampire bastard!”
“Yes, of course it is on the ground. The noble dethroned princess.”
“… … !”
princess.
The nameless face twisted at that name. The teeth that could be seen under the gray hair were clenched.
“Forever and ever, don’t try to endure this hellish tragedy alone.”
With a faint smile, Selendion went out through the now fully open northern gate.
“In the end, you too will be worn down and swallowed up by time.”
“Wait, Celendion! this… … !”
Nameless desperately tried to stop the main force, but the decoy army attacked her from all sides.
Leaving the battlefield swirling with streaks of light and drops of blood behind, Selendion and the main unit exited the northern main gate and set out outside the Lake Kingdom.
From the gate to the surface of the lake there was a transparent road.
Shoot Aaaaa!
Not long after walking along, Selendion and the main kinsman were able to go out to the surface.
“The air is good.”
After quietly breathing in the air of the outside world, which he hadn’t tasted in hundreds of years, Selendion looked straight north.
“ruler. Let’s go destroy the world.”
I wish for his own death at the end of that road.
The Vampire King began to move towards the human world.
