Chapter 416 - More Incoming Enemies

And so… three days have passed ever since Angela started breaking through. And she hasn't finished yet!

"This must be the longest breaking through in history. It has been three days, and she's still there. Breaking through all four elements at once to expert level must be difficult," I said.

"But is she fine? She hasn't eaten or drink the whole time she's inside there," Victoria asked.

"She's fine. There's no change in her body. And she's not dehydrated as well. I think that's a bit scary as a doctor. I wouldn't want to stay without eating for three days," I said.

"Is that why you refused to get my clones to infect your inner organ?" Victoria asked.

"Obviously. Food is more important," I said.

Right now, I don't have anything to do as the others can handle it. And they also started using the shift system now and started guarding Angela in turns. As for some who are on standby, they are either resting, eating, or even cultivating.

Since everyone is strong enough to handle everything so far, I don't need to do anything. Though for the others, they started to make a bet on how much monsters they can defeat. And I am not allowed to take part. Why!?

I can only fight in close range, so even if I participated, they can still defeat more. But I am not allowed to take part in it? That's ridiculous!

Oh, they know that I can use portals many times now. That's why I was stopped from participating. Tsk!

Anyway, now that it's already three days of protecting Angela, I asked for some more reinforcements. Including Oleg's group from Melk and Hill's group from Mellian. It's a good place as well for them to improve and get stronger.

This way, when weaker enemies come, our stronger members can sit back and relax, while watching our weaker members fighting and giving them guidance as well. This is nice.

And the camera is still working as well, so Albert can watch what's going on here.

So far, it has been quite peaceful despite many places is covered with blood here.

"Is it just me or the monsters are much weaker than during the Stampede back then?" Oleg asked Hill.

"I don't think so. We are also steadily getting stronger as well. Though not as strong as Kron is. He's already expert level," Hill replied.

"Haha! If you focus more in your personal strength, you can be as powerful as I am!" Kron said proudly.

"Hmm… no thanks. I'd rather protect my city with my babies," Hill said.

"Sure then. But why do you call your men as babies? They are all adult," Kron asked.

"Well… it happened," Hill said.

…what the hell? Don't tell me those guys who have been training their body for the sole purpose of keeping their distance to Hill, has changed their ways? Hill has affected them that much?

I'm glad that I didn't stay in Mellian for too long then. Cause I don't want to see the sight of that.

Not just those from Tatrama. People from other countries that their kings can trust were here as well. Though it's not as many as those from Tatrama.

Like how Celestine is busy right now because the people she gave her guidance for the sake of the tournament are here, so she's watching over them now. They are those who will participate in the tournament, and already know what we are going to do. They are getting along with Kayla and the others.

Though I believe, just like in the tournament in Melk, none of them would hold themselves back in case they are facing each other. They are still interested in being the strongest after all.

Though now that there are several expert level mages as well from Tatrama, I think it's good if other countries have more expert level mages as well. Because I think we are overpowering them. But since Celestine and Julia will represent their country, I think it will still be interesting to watch.

Though with their experience as expert level mages, they still have the advantages than those who just recently improved.

"Master! New enemies approaching!"

All of a sudden, Graham shouted of a new incoming enemy. The only reason he announced the warning is because he thinks that the new enemies are much stronger than the previous ones we fought, or because they are an intelligent species.

"Thanks for the information. I'll go and greet them now," I said as I looked at the direction where the new enemies coming from.

"They are still too far, so I don't know if your eyes can see them now," Graham said.

"Then let's go there," I said as I run, with Graham flying at high speed above me. Then I asked him, "what kind of enemies is it this time?"

"They are vampires. They have strong body, fast, and they suck the blood of living beings," Graham said.

That's just like the vampires in story. But is that all?

"What about their magic? Do they have any?" I asked again.

"Probably something related to blood. And if they come here after sucking the blood of every other monsters they encountered on the way, they might be really powerful," Graham said.

Blood related magic, and they might have sucked a lot of blood from the monsters they encountered. I want to think that they can be negotiated with, but I can't hope too much. I'll meet them while getting reinforcement to prepare to fight. They will fight after I give the signal.

"Graham, create a giant clone of yourself. We might need it. Sonia. You're here?"

"What is it, Roy?" Sonia appears after I tapped the buckle of my belt.

"Get the werewolves ready. Things might get… physical."

"The enemy is physically gifted, huh? I'll tell Shelia and the other werewolves. What about Kayla and the humans?" Sonia asked.

"They will stay here to protect Angela. There might be other powerful species approaching while I'm fighting the vampires," I said.

"Understood," Sonia left after she said that.

Can I negotiate with the vampires? Even if I can what should I give them? Blood? How much?

Let's think about it carefully first. They are monsters. And I have experience in turning monsters into allies.

First, it was the werewolves. I defeated their king, and become their next king.

Next was the elves. They are cowards, and I gave them land and security.

Lastly, the angels. I used force to get them loyal to me.

…there's nothing I can give to the vampires other than making them understand through violence.

Let's talk with them first before we fight.

I can finally see them now. They have pale skin as if they never leave their house. Don't they ever get tanned? It's the sun is bright right now.

Oh, wait. I guess vampires being creature that can only walk during the night is just a myth. They are walking normally now.

There's one thing that makes me want to kill them right away. They are all good looking!

Though I just want to kill the male ones. Kill them before Victoria even fantasize things about them.

Most importantly, they have sharp canines in their mouth. And it was also longer than human's canines. Do they ever bite their lips, tongue, or even the inside of their mouth with those sharp things when eating? The pain must be much worse than being bitten by a normal human's teeth.

And the vampires I see far in front of me… are following one of them who seems to be their leader. He's a vampire who seems to be a ten years old boy if he's a human. But I think they live longer than humans, so he must be many times older than me despite his height is about as tall as Daniel's. Now I miss Daniel.

Since we know the leader now, I'll go and see if we can talk or not.

"Good afternoon, vampires. What can I help you with?" I tried to be polite.

"Who are you?" the vampire boy asked.

"A friend of the source of this magic fluctuation," I replied.

"I see… then, not just your friend. We will also suck the blood of everyone here!" the boy shouted.

After that, multiple vampires jumped at me in high speed. Not fast enough for me though. I can easily see them and dodge. But rather than dodging, I'd rather kill them in the spot.

I know that I want to see if they can be turned into our comrades or not, but we can't take the risk. He has said that his intention is to suck Angela's blood. And I won't let him and any other vampires get closer to her.

As they get close to me, I quickly used Reizpear and Victokatana to kill the attacking vampires. With both weapons, I killed them all easily.

"…you're quite strong. Even though we have drunk quite a bit of blood, you can still overpower them with your strength. What are you?" the boy vampire asked.

"A human," I replied.

"So, what's a human?" the boy asked again.

After asking that, one of the vampires next to him who seems to be much older than old man Henry, whispering something to him. Probably telling him what a human is.

"Oh? It seems like your kind has the most delicious blood. Everyone! It's a feast!" the boy shouted.

Really? My blood is delicious? I don't think so. Probably only for the vampires.

This time, all of the vampires are coming at me. And I used intimidation on them by using Aura and my will. Thanks to the experience with Andro, I can somehow use something similar to his intimidation. Though it's much weaker, it's still enough to handle the weaker vampires.

"I will kill anyone with the intention to harm me or my friends," I said intimidatingly.

While that happens, the group of werewolves finally arrive with Shelia and Jack in the lead. Seems like they really want to fight the vampires.

"Finally… FINALLY! Vampires versus werewolves! I can finally see it happening in front of me!"

…let's ignore the Black Slime who has her dream coming true in front of her. But she's right that this will be a great battle between the werewolves and the vampires.. As long as the werewolves are strong enough to handle the vampires, I won't lift a finger anymore.
