◈ 144. [STAGE 5] Vampire King
12 hours ago.
The night before the start of Stage 5.
Junior came to me saying that he had something to tell me while I was thinking about tactics until the very end.
“majesty. A few more things I’m hiding… … Did you know?”
I nodded.
Junior’s characteristic [Fox Den].
It is a characteristic that hides one’s abilities.
[fox earth]
– Always dig a hole to escape. In order to have a trump card, they deceive their opponents with their abilities.
Junior had this characteristic from the beginning, so it was difficult to figure out the exact stats.
“As expected, I thought you would know.”
Junior laughed bitterly and carefully removed the glove from his left hand.
The back of her left hand revealed to the world was covered with burns from childhood, and at the same time, a clear magic pattern appeared on it.
I opened my eyes wide.
“This… … .”
“If you tell me, do you know what this is?”
I nodded heavily. Junior put her glove on again.
“I said that I showed all my abilities to Your Highness the other day, but that was a lie. I was hiding one more step.”
“… … .”
“But I won’t hide it anymore.”
I quietly opened the system window and checked Junior’s stats.
Junior’s real level, real skills, and real characteristics… … .
I let out a small sigh.
“… … Does the fact that you show me what you’ve been hiding mean that you’re ready?”
“yes. I just finished it.”
Junior smiled faintly.
“A skill to give the Vampire King a shot, and my mental preparation. entire.”
“… … .”
Junior told me about the magical research results and achievements he had been digging into over the past few days.
I, who had been listening with my chin resting on my chin, slowly opened my mouth to face him.
“I also have one skill I gained this time.”
My level was already 36 when I cleared the last dungeon.
I had already acquired 2 skills.
However, it’s not a skill that is usually difficult to apply, so I was thinking of sealing it this stage.
If you cooperate with Junior, you can use it in this stage as well.
I explained my skill set to Junior. Junior looked at me with a surprised face.
“Then, if I join forces with Your Highness… … .”
“Even if he is a vampire lord, he can easily kill him.”
Immediately after, I shook my head slightly.
“But, Junior. you… … Are you really okay? If you use that magic, you… … .”
“are you okay.”
Junior, who answered with strength, shed his signature foxy laugh.
“majesty. I wanted to be a wizard all my life.”
“… … .”
“And this frontline was the first place in my life where I was treated like a proper wizard. The moment Her Highness gave me my first salary, I decided to show my full potential here.”
Thank you very much… … .
I sighed.
“Your grandmother will be sad though.”
“Didn’t I tell you before?”
Junior just cut it off.
“I never thought that person was my grandmother.”
“… … .”
“Well then, Your Highness?”
Thinking of the magic circle behind his back, Junior smiled briskly.
“For our linkage skills tomorrow, shall we at least practice cramming all night?”

today.
above the castle wall. Stage 5 final showdown.
Taat-!
Selendion came head-on.
It was the invisible speed that he showed on the path of losers before.
But back then it was different. This time, my party members were reacting.
The first to stand in the way of Selendion was Evangeline.
Evangeline’s eyes were shining with emerald light, as if she were wearing night vision goggles.
Exclusive attribute [Crossroad].
Evangeline’s intuition itself, showing the optimal battle route!
Celendion’s outstretched hand met Evangeline’s shield.

In an instant, red light exploded from Celendion’s fingertips, and Evangeline’s shield emitted white light to absorb the attack.
However, the damage absorption capacity is reached in an instant.
Tight!
The iron plate that made up the shield was crumpled like paper, and the shield on Evangeline’s left arm was bent.
The gauntlet that wrapped around Evangeline’s left arm was also shattered.
A frown spread in Celendion’s eyes.
《Ho. Responding to my movements.”
Although her left arm was snapped back, Evangeline exclaimed with her characteristic cheeky smile.
“You must have only reacted, you son of a bitch!”
The cavalry spear in Evangeline’s right hand was thrust forward.
slap!
However, avoid it.
Selendion flexibly twisted her small body and avoided Evangeline’s spear point with ease.
And Evangeline had expected that far as well.
“I can’t avoid this!”
The tip of Evangeline’s lance burned white.
Bang-!
The condensed [Damage Payback] of all the damage just absorbed exploded at the tip of the spear.
“It wasn’t bad, but… … .》
However, even that attack, Selendion blocked it by spreading a shield with blood magic.
Shaking off her fingertips, Celendion lifted Evangeline’s body up with magic and threw it aside.
《If there are only three numbers prepared, how can you stop me!》
The direction in which Celendion threw Evangeline’s body was in the direction of Lucas, who was running after him.
“Wow!”
“What?!”
Courage!
The two knights tangled together and rolled on the floor.
At this moment, the potential was empty.
Lucas quickly gets up and starts running again, but seconds pass.
those few seconds.
A few seconds was already enough. Selendion spurned his seat and was shot forward again.
towards me
In order to suck my blood, which I pointed out as the first prey, I honestly rushed in front.
Damian, Old Girl, and Skull, who stood behind me and on either side of me, started firing a volley. Push! Push! Peeping-!
The rain of arrows was entwined with gusts of wind, freezing, and flames.
The three shared the enchantment scroll given to Damian.
Patter!
However, Selendion continued to run, grabbing the shaft with his hands for each silver arrow and deflecting the remaining silver arrows with magic.
He’s the vampire lord.
It is a monster that has mastered both body enhancement and magic, the skill trees of vampires.
As long as you can’t disable both the body and magic, it’s next to impossible to stop him.
‘So both sides have to shut it down… … .’
I quickly looked both ways.
The ‘measure’ to stop it is not yet ready!
In the blink of an eye, Selendion arrived right in front of me.
I have no intention of sitting still and dying! I cried.
“Summons-!”
[Summoning Magic: Chimera Origin]
– This spell is one-time use. When used, it disappears from the skill list.
– The level of the summoned character is the same as the level of the summoned character. You can only keep one minion at a time.
– Please specify the location to summon.
It was Chimera Origin’s summoning magic obtained during the previous Colosseum exploration.
The summoning position is, of course, the front!
Flash-!
A geometric magic circle was drawn, and then a monster with lions, goats, snakes, and other animals mingled in front of me.
The source of all chimeras. Chimera Origin.
This guy is also a boss level monster. It will hold out against Selendion even for a while.
I thought so.
《This battlefield is only for humans and me, it is pure and natural!》
A roar erupted from the mouth of the Vampire King who had discovered the traitor.
《Don’t interfere, mongrel-!》
F*ck!
As Celendion waved his hand, Chimera Origin’s body exploded.
The monster summoned with poisonous blood was shattered simply and absurdly.
And Selendion made his way between the pieces of meat and blood to reach me and-
snap.
grabbed my collar
Celendion’s mouth widened in a smile.
The four gleaming upper and lower fangs emitted a bloody light, and fell straight toward my neck-
Pooh!
bitten off
arm stuck in between.
I was surprised to see, the one who put his arm between Selendion’s teeth and my neck… … It was an old girl.
Even as the vampire bit her arm and sucked blood in an instant, the old girl looked back at me with a calm face and raised her hand slightly… … looked shaken
smiling as usual
In the next moment, the old girl, who had sucked the life out of her body, knelt on the floor with a loud sound.
I was vampirized by the vampire lord with all my might.
can’t live Old Girl dried up like an old tree and twisted to death.
I see this scene in a daze,
“Prince!”
widely!
Damian, who was standing behind me, grabbed me by the shoulders and yanked me back.
At the same time, the Skull standing to my right drew a silver dagger from his waist and charged forward.
“Your opponent is me, vampire-!”
The archers are in close combat.
What are you doing, Skul? Besides, you’re good at long-range sniping.
I wanted to dry it, but there was no time to do so. Skull, like his code name and specialty, swung a dagger aiming at the enemy’s head,
Beep-!
Selendion’s whole body was shattered as he was battered by the blood magic he swung as if he was annoying.
The skull’s blood droplets that scattered in the air stopped falling to the ground and were all sucked into Selendion’s mouth.
Selendion, who killed Old Girl and Skull in seconds, tasted the blood in her mouth and clicked her tongue slightly.
《… … is it an elf hmm. Not bad for a first meal.”
The monster with the face of a boy raised its mouth towards me.
“As expected, this hunger will go away if I eat you, Ash?”
Damian was desperately pulling me back, but Selendion’s stride was much faster.
Celendion stepped towards me with his mouth wide open as if playing a joke-
Pooh!
The next moment, Lucas’s longsword fell behind Celendion’s back with a flash of light.
“uh?”
At the same time as an embarrassing moan leaked from Selendion’s lips,
hooked! Pooh! Boo-wook! Fuhuaak!
Lucas’s longsword mercilessly sliced through Celendion’s back and neck.
A longsword made of holy silver pierced Selendion’s spiritual core, and Selendion, unable to withstand it, fell to his knees.
hook-!
Finally, Lucas’s longsword pierced Celendion’s chest and rose forward. Accurately penetrating the spiritual core.
Seong exposed and even destroyed the Vampire King’s spiritual core just by using his skill [Strike of Will] on his long sword.
《… … What is its condition, knight?”
Selendion, who was coughing up blood, looked back slowly.
“It’s not like I’m human… … You seem to have entered the same territory as us. You can even feel a sense of kinship.”
“… … .”
Lucas was in a slightly different state than usual.
Her stance was as low as that of a four-legged wolf, and through her tousled blond hair, her blue eyes radiated a dangerous light like that of a beast.
The heat radiating from the back shook like a haze.
I swallowed dry saliva.
‘No way, Lucas this guy… … .’
Did you write [Beast Painting]?
I have to stop that! If you write that characteristic… … !
“Thanks, I couldn’t detect it. this is true… … .》
Selendion’s body fell to the floor,
《… … Making me spend ‘one’ of my life. That’s great.”
Immediately after, he got up again as if nothing had happened.
