Master’s Smile

Episode 148: Gehilned's Mischief

Wow... wow...

I looked back at the battle that was taking place in front of me, and all I could think of was that.

The soloids and the others who fought this time had considerable strength.

Probably one of the top vampire hunters in the world.

I just wasn't good with them.

If Van Peel, a true ancestral vampire and definitely the strongest vampire I know, there's no way any of us can win, no matter how many soloids.

But it was amazing that I even let her use sun magic, her back hand.

"Whoa... whoa...! Oh, you could afford it......!

Van Peel also looks exhausted because of the use of solar magic, which has a tremendous amount of magic consumption.

Hmmm...... after all, even Van Peel is hard to use solar magic......

So has she been talented, but I taught her because of the amount of magic in the top ranks of The Army of Salvation (Yerkchilla)...

Well, she's some other attractive kid, and she's not the only bad master with magic, like me.

"Ahhh...... Master... blood, blood... I want a reward for my hard work Wow..."

Like every other time, vampires approach like flirtatious and ghostly.

There's always clean golden hair disturbed, and I'm a little scared.

But it's also true that she worked hard.

Vampire hunters, natural enemies to vampires, were also opponents of the powerful soloids that had the weapon of vampire killing.

A little bit, you could spoil it.

My bad habit of being a member of the Army of Salvation (Yelktila) came out and I tried to get my neck out...

"Hey!? What the hell happened!?

It was Liturgia who came down from the sky.

Oh, the vampire of the true ancestors who tormented the boulder Van Peel. Unlike Van Peel, he didn't look like he was suffering one scratch, he seemed intact and beat his enemies completely.

"Ah, alas... Mr. Liturgia... You've won… unfortunately…"

"Hey, what, this undead kind of vampire... Were you that strong...?

It is usually Van Peel and Liturgia who develop into an argument just face-to-face.

Van Peel slaps her hatred, as usual, but Liturgia was pulling on her fatigue like that.

It seems a little more worrying than that. Roots are good kids......

"Beh, I couldn't be stronger..."

"... how was it, Master?

Abandoning the fortitude of Van Peel, Liturgia asked me.

Yeah, I think he was strong.

He seemed to have a lot of experience as a vampire hunter, and he had a vampire killing weapon...

"... that and the consequences of fighting Van Peel, is this what you mean?

...... yeah.

At the end of my gaze and that of Liturgia.

There was supposed to be a village there burned by the Soluids, but now it was dull and scorched as if the ground was burning.

It is not a soluid's blazing sword. It was clear that Van Peel's solar magic was responsible.

The village also has nothing left before her, even though it exists properly behind Van Peel.

... Powerful, awesome.

"... what kind of magic did you use, damn it"

"Wow, I haven't... I can't believe the magic of the master..."

No, I don't want to talk about it. In the meantime, shall we return the weary Van Peel to the Mansion?

"Right."

Master, please carry me. No.

Yes, sir.

I held up Van Peel and the surviving child with a bitter smile.

"Were some of the vampire hunters who broke in, some of the Soluid guys!? Ha... so often Van Peel was safe."

Gehilned was stunned to hear the report.

The name of a vampire hunter named Soluid had also reached Gehilned, the vampire of his true ancestors.

Old vampires of mighty power have also slaughtered fierce warriors.

I didn't know such a powerful vampire hunter was breaking in, it cools the liver down a bit.

"You made me drill a hole to weaken Van Peel, and you mean I could have done it"

Vampire territory hostile to mankind, its security is tight.

If it was meant to be, you can't break in no matter how many soluids you say.

The reason we were able to break in this time was because Gehilned made us drill a hole in that security net.

"Nearly a hundred vampires lived in villages burned by vampire hunters."

"Ah? Damage?

Gehilned turning a guillotine and red eye to the family he was letting report.

"That's not damage. These are the thankful vampires who have made me a pillar of humanity in order to make me lord. No way, you're gonna say it's my fault or something, right?

"... that's not true"

To Gehilned's words, his family bows their heads.

In the first place, his family is under complete control, from consciousness to their personality, unlike those of Van Peel and Liturgia.

Therefore, there can never be dissatisfaction or anger with Gehilned on the part of his family, and there can be no outrage.

"They're sacrifices I can't avoid to be a lord. I'll be a lord to reward them..."

Gehilned laughing niggardly.

"Van Peel couldn't be finished, but he would have been able to exhaust him. Soluid was a depressing guy too, but you helped me at the end of the day."

The battle between Van Peel and Soluid, it seems, was a tremendous one.

If we fight so hard, it will be difficult for us to exert our normal power no matter how many monsters we have in vampires.

With that in mind, I'd say we're moving on as expected from Gehilned.

"Now you're going to be able to use this guy to do something about him."

That's what Gehilned says and takes out 'that sword'.

It is a sword crooked in distortion, which had already been made by the dead alchemist Vissen.

Gehilned laughs as he strokes there.

"Come on, we're almost there. Soon, I..."
