chapter XXIX
Dracula extended his sharp claws and charged into the crowd with his hands hanging upside down. A commotion immediately broke out in the crowd. He quickly killed a human with a claw. For a moment, corpses were strewn all over the ground, and mournful cries could be heard.
The four Holy Knights immediately surrounded the Count. They brandished their swords, whips, and arrows to attack the Count from all directions. He moved back and forth between the four of them with ease, easily dodging Scott's sword. He grabbed Scott's armor with his claws, and five deep scratches appeared on the hard armor.
"Ah, hmph." Dracula looked at his own hand. His nails and fingers seemed to be slowly melting as if they had been corroded by concentrated acid. Blood flowed down his fingers, and his self-healing ability could not heal it immediately.
Dracula bent down to pick up a sword left on the ground and said," Someone, go to the Alchemy Research Building and get my sword.”Someone immediately went to retrieve it.
"Do you think I can't deal with you just because you've applied holy water?”Dracula looked at them disdainfully.
"At least your pair of ghost claws are useless now.”
"Then I'll show you the swordsmanship of the former number one swordsman of the Dragon-Slaying Association.”
Dracula raised the sword in his hand and attacked the enemy quickly. William and Scott never expected a vampire to have such powerful swordsmanship. Dracula's swordsmanship was fast and accurate, and every move was fatal. The two Holy Sword Knights, who had always been proud of their swordsmanship, were unable to defend themselves and retreated. If not for the advantage of the sword in his hand, he would have been killed by his sword.
The shock made the two of them break out in cold sweat. They had been immersed in swordsmanship for decades and had never met a match. Today, they had actually lost to a vampire, and it was a complete defeat.
Dracula's sword moves were endless, and the golden sword light was so dazzling that it was difficult to open one's eyes. The speed of the sword became faster and faster, and finally, Scott could no longer withstand it, and Dracula pierced his throat.
He pulled out his sword and turned around to attack William. William was in a sorry state.
Ludbarr quickly waved his whip to help William out. Dracula felt the strong wind behind him and swung his sword without looking back.
"Ah!" Ariel's voice came from behind. Dracula hurriedly turned his head. It turned out that Ludbarr had brought someone with him. While everyone was watching the scene, he pulled Ariel into the whip and lashed it at Dracula.
The blade was already close to Ariel, and a few strands of her hair were cut off. Dracula hurriedly retracted his sword and forcefully pulled back the sword hilt to hit himself, causing him to stagger back a step.
William seized the opportunity to stab at Dracula. He dodged to the side and caught Ariel before quickly taking her away.
Dracula put down Ariel, who was still in shock, and looked at the wound on his arm that had been slashed by the sword.”
"No matter what method we use to deal with demons like you, it won't be too much.”Luther Barr said righteously.
Dracula rushed forward and engaged the three knights in battle again. Suddenly, his footsteps began to falter, and he could not use his spiritual power intermittently.
"You smeared poison on your swords.”Dracula said disdainfully.
He tried his best to resist the poison in his body, and his sword became even faster and more vicious. He stabbed his sword at William's heart. William raised his sword to block the collision between his sharp sword and Dracula's ordinary longsword. His sword was cut in half.
"Master, take the sword." The guard tossed Dracula's sword, the Vacuum Blade, to him, and Dracula spread his giant wings and took the sword.
"Ah!" The guard who delivered the sword was killed by the divine arrow.
Dracula's eyes were filled with killing intent. He slashed down on William's shoulder. William raised his sword to block the huge impact and pressed him to the ground. After the sword in his hand was cut by the vacuum blade, it cut into his body and split him apart.
"William." Ludebarr shouted,
"Bastard, I want your life." He swung his holy whip at Dracula.
Dracula tried hard to pull the sword, but the vacuum blade was firmly stuck in his bones. He had to roll on the ground to avoid the whip on his head.
"Huff huff." Dracula knelt on the ground and panted heavily.
"T-this guy is poisoned." Ludebarr's eyes lit up
"Anthony, quickly finish him off." He and the Holy Archer Knight Anthony rushed forward, wanting to kill Dracula.
Dracula dodged left and right to avoid the whip shadows and flying arrows, looking very sorry.
" Uh, uh." Ludbarr's holy whip wrapped around Dracula's neck. The whip was like a red-hot iron chain that was deeply branded into Dracula's neck and tightly strangled him.
"Take this opportunity to shoot him to death." Anthony shot out three divine arrows at Dracula, but he could only spread his giant wings and wrap himself up.
"Ahe-cough cough." Dracula screamed at the top of his lungs. He lay on the ground in pain, his hands gripping the ground tightly because of the pain, leaving scratch marks on the granite boulder.
Two of the three arrows pierced his wings, and blood gushed out. The giant wings that had been spread open were now retracted and trembling on the ground. Dracula struggled to remove the wooden arrows from the wings. The other shot through his wing and into his shoulder.
"Master…" The soldiers of Demon City hurriedly rushed forward.
" Stand down. No one is allowed to step forward without my order." Dracula stood up shakily and untied the holy whip while enduring the immense pain in his hands.
The two knights quickly picked up their weapons and continued to attack. Dracula dragged his wounded body and barely dodged. Aiyo, he fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
"Hah." Anthony, who thought that victory was in his hands, rushed forward and pointed the crossbow at his head. Dracula, who was originally lying on the ground, suddenly jumped up. He pulled out the arrow from his shoulder and stabbed it at Anthony with all his might. The wooden arrow pierced through Anthony's throat. Anthony covered his neck in disbelief and fell into a pool of blood.
Out of the six people who had gone through life and death together, he was the only one left. Ludbarr whipped Dracula crazily. Dracula, who had almost lost all his spiritual power, retreated while blocking with his hands. The powerful power of the holy whip made Dracula bleed profusely. Every whip scraped off a large piece of his flesh, and the red wounds were exposed.
Ludbarr whipped Dracula again, sending him flying. "Pfft." Dracula spat out a mouthful of blood. In his blurry vision, he saw his sword stabbed into William's corpse. He grabbed the hilt of his sword and kicked William away.
Ludbarr had already caught up to him, and Dracula could not be bothered to focus. He squeezed out the last of his strength and shot out the sword in his hand. The Vacuum Blade flew into Ludebarr's arms, dragging a long shadow behind him. It carried him up and stabbed into the stone statue behind him, all the way to the hilt.
Dracula staggered to his feet and looked at the remaining assassins of the Demon Hunters Association with a dazed expression. "Who else wants to go?"
Those people were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated. They did not even care about the dead. They only took back their sacred objects and ran away.
Dracula, who was barely holding on, fainted on the ground after the humans evacuated. "Master." The remaining demons of the Demon City hurried to his side, and Augustine helped Dracula up from the pool of blood.
"Master, what's going on? How did this happen?”Dracula, who had no spiritual power at all, had returned to his original appearance. Wasn't this the young vampire who was beaten half to death by us last time? Augustine stared blankly at the person in his arms.
"Move aside, move aside." Sean pushed through the crowd and squeezed his way in.
" Oh my god, Master." Sean knelt beside Dracula and checked his injuries.
"Old Master, w-what did you just call him? 'Master, why has Master changed?'”Augustine asked in surprise.
"I'll explain to you later. Carry him in first. The others carry all the injured in.”Sean commanded everyone.
Dracula was lying motionless in the huge coffin. Sean was doing a full-body examination on him. What a serious injury. There were whip marks and arrow wounds all over his body, and his skin was exposed. His right hand fingers had been corroded by the holy water, leaving only deep white bones. The most terrible thing was that he had lost his spiritual power and could not heal himself. His wounds were still bleeding. Sean quickly stopped the bleeding and bandaged them.
"Where is the blood I want?" Sean turned around and asked.
"Here." Augustine hurriedly delivered the blood.
Sean dissolved the powder into the blood, pried open Dracula's mouth, and used a small spoon to send the blood bit by bit into Dracula's throat, which was almost unable to swallow.
When everything was ready, Xiao En closed the lid and activated the mechanism to erect the coffin. Everyone quietly left the bedroom.
"How's the old man?" The people guarding the door asked with concern.
Sean wiped the blood off his hands and said,""I've done what I should do. The rest is up to Master.”
"Sean, is he really the master?”
"Of course." Sean said with certainty.
"Then, then why did he change?”Augustine asked in confusion.
"This is Master's true appearance. He usually disguises himself because he doesn't like people laughing at his overly delicate appearance.”
"I see. No wonder Alubis was so angry last time. Oh my god, w-we actually beat Master up.。。。。。”Augustine anxiously rubbed his hands and said.
"Don't worry, Master never blamed you. On the contrary, he praised you for your loyalty.”Sean comforted her.
"Old Master, the casualty count is out.”A soldier came to report.
"Tell me quickly." Sean urged.
"Yes, the guards and personal guards responsible for this battle have a total of 355 people. 112 people died and 189 people were injured. Sixty-five of the heavily injured were currently being treated in the main hall. Those who were slightly injured were arranged to return to their rooms to rest. The non-combat personnel in charge of the daily affairs of Demon City were affected by the chanting of the Holy Magic Knight. Among the 607 people, 99 died and 380 were injured. Fortunately, they were all slightly injured and were not seriously injured. The one with the most serious injuries was Sir Alubis. He was still unconscious and had a high fever. He had even vomited blood just now.”
"Sigh, this child doesn't care about what's ahead or what's behind when he's fighting for his life. Everyone, listen up. In the coming days, the entire Demon City will be on alert.”Sean ordered loudly.
"Yes…"
