Lesson Twenty: Traps

Nice mansion, Kainushi thought without changing his expression.

Quite large, furnished, lots of places to hide, and most importantly - no private houses nearby.

The ultimate in hunting vampires is how not to let them act. Careful measures are essential to destroy that undead, where every performance greatly outweighs people.

The difference between him and me is that it is isolated. No matter how much muscle a resident builds, no matter how much combat skill he finishes, it doesn't reach the foot of that monster.

Only the Blessed End Knight, or else - the equivalent of a curse - can stand up to that abominable monster with his skill.

If the original Necromancer had crushed the weakness of the undead, humans would have become merely frightened and hidden. Or maybe there was... a vampire (vampire) in his current human position.

Fortunately, vampires today have numerous weaknesses. People's history is the history of the fight against the undead.

A cross sword that reproduces the vampire's feared cross with extreme precision. Easy to use and shaped wooden pile in a bomb mixed with garlic and silver powder. The curtain, shaped with holy water and silver, reproduces the armor of the blessing in a pseudo manner.

Tools for the annihilation of undead, which have been drilled and developed, can be annihilated as if to exterminate pests with some degree of undead.

The undead are doomed beings. There are no exceptions.

The other person solves the language and even uses people's tools. If you sympathize, you will be followed. In particular, vampires have the power to arbitrarily cause 'infection' with zombies, the weakest undead. Together, they multiply much easier than humans.

This time the target is a nasty opponent.

The vampire traits of the target are also different from normal, but above all it also has an ex-ending knight escort. It can also be taken for granted that Ephe of Destruction asked Kainushi to do so.

Kainusi and Albatos specialize in tracking among vampire hunters Vampire Hunters. If your opponent is a member of the Knights of the End and you know all about how the Knights of the End chase vampires, you can't catch up by most means.

The opponent is alarmed by obtaining the Night Crystal. Decide on a battle tonight.

Tonight was a full moon. It's time for vampires to gain the most power. But that's why I get alarmed. Where lower (lesser) vampires (vampires) have been somewhat fortified, there is no great significance for Kainushi.

It was a shame that the target's next action could be read. Having human memories is also troublesome.

That tough monster is pathetically still meant to be human. What a tragedy.

Apparently his father, the lord, responded comfortably to the threat of Kainushi.

The mansion, carefully prepared, seemed to change nothing, but had turned it into a fortress for anti-vampires. No, not so much a fortress - should I call it an execution ground?

Many vampire weaknesses are deadly. Even if your head turns slightly, once you hang it in the trap, that's it. If I can get a gap, I can take it from there all the way to annihilation.

I'll do everything I can to kill a vampire. That's what vampire hunting is all about.

I missed it once. Things were bad. But that won't happen the second time. The vampire side isn't the only one I've learned in my first engagement.

Dive into the back of the mansion and wait for when the prey takes place. If the lord followed Kainushi's instructions, he should show up shortly.

And the time has come.

The sound of unlocking the lock and the door opening quietly continues. A small footstep is coming straight this way. Without nervousness, just dive in like a shadow.

Just accept vampires without taking action. We have to lock ourselves in the room completely.

The power of vampires is significantly limited indoors. Vampires need a room out of the sun to sleep, so they should come to this place.

You wouldn't think Kainushi was lurking. If it's broken, there's no reason to bother stepping in.

Body odor is eliminated by special vanilla. The opponent is alarmed. Don't worry about getting noticed from outside the room.

Distort your lips, grin deeply and wait for the hunt. And the door to Kainushi's lurking room opened wide.

It was Kainushi's imaginary opponent who showed up.

But there is no existence that should have accompanied it.

With silver hair and purple eyes, the 'doomed' secret stepped inside the room without hesitation and raised his voice towards Kainushi, who could not possibly be hidden in the shadow of his desk.

"Wait, no use. The End Is............ Not Coming"

They're finding out. I'm not camouflaging.

Apparently, the situation has changed dramatically from what I had imagined. Kainushi rose from the shadows, frowned, and saw the princess without the world.

§

Senli Silvis doesn't know much about vampire hunting. But I know you're a terrible opponent.

Once, when there were still very few members of the Knights of the End and the art of making the most of blessings was so unclear now, it seems that the Knights of the End and the Vampire Hunt were in a cooperative relationship.

When Cenri became the End Knight, he was already the End Knights when it came to hunting the undead, so he never worked together on a mission, but the M.O. he actually saw had a different strength than the End Knight.

In front of the second-degree knight, the man, who named him Kainushi, showed no one of the upsets.

"Are you here to surrender? Or, negotiate. Fine, you're the only reason I'm here. If you're going to surrender, I'm going to miss that vampire."

"Huh... Don't be stupid, don't"

Frowning and staring at a man who might not be good at something.

Even Cenri knows that word is a lie. The man in front of you is not that sweet. Cenri is not as pure as believing a man who lied at least once.

Kainushi sighs slightly at the staring centipede and looks around. The column clock indicated that the time was midnight. We still have a few hours until morning.

"Your presence here means that the Baron betrayed you... a frightened man. No matter how many sons, it's a felony to imitate to shelter the dead... Don't you spare the house?"

"I don't know what you're talking about"

There were a few things I wanted to say, but I didn't ride the provocation and the centipede cuts the lumps.

Rudo Fomet called Cenri and told me about Kainushi. On top of that, I entrusted Cenri with the end.

Cenri has no idea how important the survival of the house is to the nobility. But I did have feelings for my parents and children there.

I also thought about escaping, but I couldn't take that option.

The man in front of you tracks too fast and too accurately. If I don't crush it here, I can't handle it very well if it's put together with the End Knight and other vampire hunts.

"The noble body becomes a powerful undead. I have such a legend. eyebrow spit, but therefore in the vast majority of countries nobility is required to be cremated. Come on, if you find out the body's flown - Baron Fomet's house is over. That was my advice... I had to."

…………

To put it all that far, Kainushi gives a fuzzy look. Ask Cenri in the tone of blame.

"But - as I said last time, I don't know. Why are you on that vampire's side? No way, they really bonded. It's totally against reason."

……

"I would have fulfilled my brother-in-law enough by the time I gave him blood. No way, are you gonna watch me forever? That man has no life span. The End of the Hunt for the Undead. Are you going to point your sword at me, not a vampire?

Absolutely, an abominable man.

Perhaps verbal agitation is one of those tactics. But the words were precisely poking Cenri's concerns.

Sure, the end is dangerous. I'm still sane, but I don't know how long I can stay sane, or when I'll be stronger than a centimeter. There is a difference in life expectancy. It is also possible to breathe other people's blood where Cenri has not seen it.

But still, the end figure I've seen hits Cenri's heart.

He is so timid, he resists his instincts himself, and he is flirting with a strange fate.

I wanted to lean in and support you. That's enough reason to wave a sword, etc.

Pull the silver sword out of your hips. A testament to the Knights of the End. It is a holy silver sword with a cold glow.

This is... my will.

"I need to kill people... you think?

The enemies of the Knights of the End are undead. But some undead are manipulators of people's hearts and minds, and they have entered their own subordination.

And there's a history of fighting vampire hunting. Experience in interpersonal combat is as good as it is against undead.

Kainushi narrowed his eyes to the centipede where he lay his sword and stared.

"Slash it. At least, about me, I can't kill you. Poor... vampire bride... because-"

"We... are not alone, unlike you"

"Huh!!

Intercept the black shadow accidentally jumped from behind, with a sword.

It retreats at the same time as it is taken, shocking and flushing, but the sword trembles and the hands are paralyzed by a blow that is too heavy.

It was the woman in the black dress who attacked me.

The age can be seen some below the centimeter, but the blow is incredibly powerful from the thin arm. It's not human arm strength.

In the darkness, the eyes of gold are shimmering. Albathos. The girl whose centipede tore once had a beastly grin in the darkness.

It was a hook-clawed weapon - claw - that was held in both hands.

An unusual weapon. It's supposed to be a vampire hunt, but those nails seem to be made from harder metal, not silver, and last time I made it easy to take a Cenri blow.

An even smaller body than a centipede. But every move is incredibly fast and light, and pure body surgery may outweigh centipede.

That was obviously an outside force. Human beings are unlikely to be fortified by blessings, but there are no signs that they are entangling blessings, or that they are using witchcraft.

Then there is only one conclusion.

Cursed. A different curse from a vampire, which strengthens him.

As vampires have numerous weaknesses, the curse should come with a price, but Cenri could not see through it in the first battle. In the first place, there's a better chance of a price you won't be able to poke at right away.

I was blocked from exiting. Were you going to blackmail me for not being in the room?

"For once, you forgot you made a hole in that belly, End Knight"

"It's not the move of someone with a very empty hole in his belly... Alba, we're talking differently"

"Once again, you can free him up"

Albatos lowers himself and shivers his black, abundant hair.

Kainushi pulls the cross sword out of his hip sheath. Unlike vampires, the cross does not work on Cenri, but from what I did I saw extraordinary proficiency.

"I thought you two were coming to get me. But if you're alone, that's convenient. Princess, you don't seem to believe that vampire. If I catch you, I'll catch that man, too. Don't catch it if you don't... come on, you'll wake up too"

"… Kainushi, you are making one mistake"

Kainushi silences. Albatos looks at Cenri with his shitty shining eyes.

The spirit was full. The chilling air grinds my cheeks.

Accelerate blessings flowing through your body. The body has a strong fever and the force circles the whole body.

And inspired them all at once. The power shines, and strong winds swirl around Senri Silvis.

If the way to fight a vampire hunt is to use all means and tools to poke weaknesses and trap them, then the way the End Knight fights is due to a versatile raw energy... combat technique using blessings.

In the Knights of the End, the conditions under which third degree knights become second degree knights.

It is to repair all 36 basic moves using a limited amount of blessings.

Physical enhancement technique "light circulation"

Pushing and killing the incomprehensible fullness given by the power that went all the way to the brain, Cenri wrapped around the light and stared at the two.

"It wasn't... full then. It's not hard to deal with you two... Believe me, it's not like he's not here... it's just that with the end, he can't fight with all his might"

§ § §

"Are you serious!? No way...... I didn't expect to be hit by my little girl's color trick. Oh, what could also be the vessel of the king of the dead...... what a pity '

"Ugh... Ru... come on..."

'Oh, if I were to be in that state, I should have taught the woman to be careful first. Oh, what a mess. A fool.'

I can't argue. But the centipede is bad. It's all bad.

My whole body was paralyzed and I couldn't move. Whatever the pain, it's my first experience that I can't move.

Roll on your back on the bed, spitefully turning your tongue, disputing the remnants of the load.

Lord's illusion was not as tarnished as it has been before. Hold on to your forehead as if you were exhausted by the evil of your son's ability to do it, and shake your neck sideways with a pulled face.

Oh, come on, why are you out? Could it be that I... am dying?

Being undead doesn't poison me, and neither should paralyzing or sleeping pills.

But this is how I finally move one finger, and I can see the illusion of Lord only ever coming out of the limit. It's really strange to be conscious. There are no signs that the power is diminishing.

"That little girl, she's quite powerful. Only the center is precisely paralyzed. Use minor moves like no one else will. But I say no... I'm sorry about you taking such a gap move. Perhaps you are the only one who has ever received such moves in the undead that are now alive."

……

'I'm too alarmed. What world have vampires that bite themselves? Save your breath!

Who the hell developed such a terrible move?

Because I can't help it. I'll admit things were going well and a little floating.

But I trusted Cenri. If I let you suck blood from your neck, if you take the invitation, you'll take it, and you'll hug me, and you'll say in your ear, "But before you do, can I bite you about the end, too?" Or if they whisper, "that's fine, I say.

I can't believe he was such a terrible kid... betrayed me. After all, I didn't even get blood. I hate end knights.
