Kuraki Kyuuden no Shisha no Ou

Episode XIII: The Vampire Hunt

My purpose is to survive. If that is any more likely, use all means.

How come, even though I want so much 'crystals of the night' that I can get my hands out of my throat, I come over to the other person's field?

Impossible. No matter how much time you put around people and set them up for a night in my favor, and show no harm, they're professionals hunting for their families at night.

I have seen a variety of powerful enemies so far. I'm - I'm not complacent enough to think I could cross with them just because I took a little blood.

"... conspired, or"

Not voicing emotions, Kainushi says frowning.

Albatos turns around and stares at the Lord of his voice with his eyes that are about to fly away.

Cenri stood behind Kainushi and Albatos.

He hides his hair with a deep hood and is disguised with dat glasses. But the sharp gaze, like the blade of its extraction, and the tip of the sword, which is a testament to the knight of the end, are directed towards Pitali and Kainushi.

Not yet, but she had me infiltrate the tavern before sundown. Perhaps even further ahead of Kainushi and Albatos.

To keep an eye on my vampire hunting deal. I didn't plan to come out if nothing happened.

But I was sure I could attack from the beginning. [M] I didn't know what to do when I've set up peaceful negotiations, but resentment is not something that disappears so easily.

Cenri's skin was not as bloody as it should have been.

For anger, or because I've just been a little sweet and too much blood.

I stuck with an embarrassing dialogue, but apparently I don't care.

Blades were pointed at second-degree knights with powers that were not comparable to those of me and others, but no will disappeared from the two of them.

Albatos strips his teeth out and tells Cenri.

"Have you been molested... you slut"

"Alba, don't. She's not our exterminator."

Kainushi flaunts his shoulder small. But its eyes are no less cold than its noisy counterparts. The hand also remains in the grip of the cross sword.

In my knowledge, vampire hunting is one step inferior to the End Knight. But what is it? This extra time.

I thought we were retreating when Cenri showed up. No way, do we still have a plan?

"But... the secret of annihilation. A little...... too much fun. Do you understand that? That vampire is still inferior...... a peculiar individual created by Horos Carmen - wouldn't you say it's 'Ancestor'?... I don't know. Even if the Knight of the End doesn't understand the danger, there is."

…………

"Ancestor," a word I've never heard of. It wasn't even in the drawings.

But is it common sense in their world that Cenri doesn't pinch their mouth?

Kainushi continues pale as he strokes the blade with his fingertips.

"It's not what I found out what was being planted. We still have to kill him before he can become a monster. Come on, when a new ancestor shows up, there's a lot of victims out there. I don't care."

"... yet, he hasn't bitten anyone but me. Reason also remains. Maybe I won't lose it."

"It's..."

Kainushi's expression changed.

Make a mesh, sigh loudly, and tell him to throw it away.

"- That's a very, very troublesome story. If that's the trait, of all the 'Ancestors' ever confirmed... it sucks. It can be a poison that invades the world. That's what a second-degree Necromancer mentor would think. Cenli Silvis, if its properties propagate, it becomes a major force. Are you... raising even the worst vampires?

For a moment there is a strong stray in Cenri's expression.

Eyes and eyes. But I didn't say anything. There's nothing I can say. [M]

I don't know what the original ancestors are referring to, or what the worst vampires mean. I just believe it.

Silence was a few seconds. Cenri frowns and raises a voice that pushes him to death.

"............ go home. He... I'll keep an eye out"

"... come on, negotiated breakdown, or... too bad. Alba -"

Kainushi didn't even show a shard of upset when he heard the answer.

Give short instructions to the partner beside you.

"Capture the pathetic 'Vampire Bride' there. I didn't want to hurt you as much as I could... but I don't mind half-killing you."

"Huh............ say no. I will kill the vampires there!!

"............... stop joking. Are you telling me to fight the End Knight, just a human being? Just go. Let me help you hunt."

I don't believe it. These guys, are you going to fight Cenri?

It was totally unexpected. Centrifuges are more restrictive than I am, and there are no obvious weaknesses like me.

Albatos lifts a huge table with one hand and throws it gently towards the centipede.

Your body isn't that big, but it could be comparable to mine. Is it also karaki?

But I don't have time to think. At about the same time, Kainushi was stepping this way.

A gripped cross sword is swung up heavily.

"Take a closer look, vampire"

"Huh!?

The speed wasn't that fast. But I feel terribly bad.

Back up big and dodge that blow sparingly. Flies when droplets are puffy. It seemed colorless and clear to me. It was a powerful venom.

For vampires, a cross is not that fatal a weakness. But if you see it, you feel bad, and if you touch it, you lose power. Not to mention that the sword of Kainushi is made of silver, and holy water is wielded.

There will be no such thing as a wound regenerating quickly, as usual, if you take it. Maybe you won't be able to fight with one blow.

This is my first battle against vampire hunting. I can't afford to care more about Cenri.

Back off, as Albatos did, he lifts the table right around the corner and throws it with all his might.

The power was rising. I'm in great shape. Kainushi hits his tongue small and dodges it big and sideways in a slippery movement.

Apparently, endurance, muscle strength, and regeneration are much lower than mine. This one has a lot of weaknesses in the price of it, and I'm having trouble getting it to happen.

Purpose accomplished. All you have to do is run away. Stand back in alarm of the attack. Beyond Kainushi, Albatos is limping and hitting the centipede in a beastly motion.

Don't worry about it. Cenri must be able to repel it.

Now - pull away the man in front of you. Kainushi doesn't hesitate to follow me back.

"I'm sorry. I need you to deliver the Night Crystal."

"What, the price is... yours, life!

A cross sword is thrown. If you look closely, the same thing is backwards two waves down on its hips.

There was a massive drop in the back of the coat that I didn't know what it was for, but had a bad feeling.

Avoid without being crucified. The long sword body pierced the wall and trembled tremendously. But you can't take it away. Touch it and you'll lose your strength.

Disadvantaged. The man in front of you is not the type to come to strength. Perhaps Albatos is in charge of the moves.

I am overwhelmed by my physical abilities. But getting close without knowing the M.O. is dangerous.

Get out of the tavern. Kainushi is coming after us too. There were tons of wild horses outside the tavern. He looks at me popping up and he runs away screaming and scattering spider children.

The hostages - should not be taken. The hostages won't let these guys through, and Cenri won't let them.

Six small silver crosses fly in rotation from all sides. It's like a boomerang.

Don't really think about a lot of things... Avoid it with half a shudder and half an admirer. Avoidance is easy if vampires have five senses and physical abilities.

"Absolutely, a great deal of art..."

".................. I guess so"

A cross sword is thrown. No matter how many times you do it, it's pointless.

The moment I tried to avoid it, I accidentally had severe pain all over my body.

My hands are about to stop, but I manage to rip out my hips and slap the cross sword off. Kainushi is approaching.

I noticed black thread hanging loosely all over my body there. Endure the pain, force your body to move and then pull out.

Silver thread. Black painted, silver thread that even vampires at night overlook. I don't even have to think about when they hung me.

Kainushi pulls his hand. A pinch of yarn tenses, and the six crosses I threw earlier loom from behind.

"Shit!"

Rotate your body slightly and tap off the cross connected to the thread, approaching from the rear with "light eating".

At that time, a Kainushi with a cross sword was imminent in front of him.

Strong. Not decisive, but used to fighting. If Albatos were here, I would definitely not have won.

Ignore the body that still hurts and growl.

"Don't lick it!

"Huh!!

With a growl, I shook my feet down to the ground with all my might.

My strength is not what it is when I train. [M] Huge cracks have been created on the ground, shaking heavily. Kainushi's posture breaks down dramatically.

I have eyes for eyes. There is a monster with bright red pupils in his cloudy eyes. I laughed. [M]

- Retreat.

Not very much, but I can't deal with him. Calm down, they're hunters who can kill vampires. I'm not the one who should fight the lower vampires.

One big step back, Kainushi looks frightened. I miss that arm and take out the fist bulb.

A few steps back, and that beats him to the ground.

White powder scattered in the air.

Smokescreen? Convenient.

The moment I thought about it, intense nausea and pain struck me.

My knee unwittingly crushes my buttocks and I get up in a hurry. My head creaked. Show your back, run as hard as you can, through the white powder.

The flat palm that peeled off was bright red and swollen. I feel like falling asleep. I can't stop crying.

This irritating smell...... powdered garlic? Besides, it even seems to be mixed with silver powder.

It's too bad to do such a terrible thing to a wandering vampire.

I'm not losing my strength. It seems that silver and garlic are not like taking away power. I want to wash it off now, but if I accidentally jump into the river, I die.

The goal is the roof. With my leg strength, I can pass on the roof and escape. The moment I tried to jump big, the sound of a tall shooting echoed.

A tremendous fever develops on the flank, causing severe pain. There are bullet marks on the wall in front of me.

Keep the wound under control with your hands. White, thin smoke is mentioned. Silver bullets. Luckily, it just seemed to have plundered.

Look behind you. Kainushi had a large revolver-style gun. How much training have you repeatedly trained to shoot into me precisely in this barely bright darkness?

"Guh... Damn, you! I hate it!

"I hate you, too"

That's an odd encounter.

Kainushi pulls the trigger. Avoid flying bullets while withstanding the pain.

The number of bullets is finite, and vampire reflexes and motion vision make avoidance easy. If it's full, you can even cut it off with rice balls.

You understand that you still have the power to resist, Kainushi says as he lowered the revolver and flashed.

"Put the princess down, put the bride down, you're going to run away, vampire"

"Well... of course."

If you do everything in your power to escape, this is not the way to go.

Cenri is fine. In the first place, the plan was to flee as soon as the battle originally broke out.

I've already decided where to meet you.

Big kick on the ground, fluttering but climbing on the roof. I slipped through the powder, but my head still creaked. I haven't felt this much pain in a long time.

Much better than solar punishment, but I want you to give me a break again.

"You'll never see me again. Goodbye."

"End. I remember your first name. Next... don't miss it"

A thrown sword pierces my foot. I ran away with my tail wrapped around it.
