Chapter 144.1: Riot Above The Death Capital

Chapter 144.1: Riot Above The Death Capital

◆Dark Knight; Kuroki

I leaped up and parried the sword of the vampire knight that was being swung down at the angels.

「Dark Knight?!」

The female angel shouted in shock.

「I'll distract them for a while. Use that time to escape from this place.」

I unleashed my black flame at the specter knights as soon as I said so.

This should be enough to buy time for those angels.

「How can it be?! That cowardly and brute Dark Knight is coming to save us!」

The one who called me a brute was the female angel.

「How could it be?! Isn't he supposed to be a lowly b*stard?」

「I don't know why he saved us but, it's just as Alphos-sama had said. What does he want by doing this?」

「This must be one of his cowardly plans! But, we have to get away from this place, now!」

The angels proceeded to leave.

They seemed to have a hard time accepting the fact that I just saved their asses.

Damn you, Alphos!!

Though I cursed at Alphos for defaming me, I focused on the matter before me right now.

My opponent wasn't just the specter knights and the vampire knights.

I could beat those kinds of foes in a second.

The white vampire might pose more threat than the others, but he is still no match for me.

「All of you, step back. Dark Knight. I shall become your opponent.」

Coming up from below was a blonde-haired, blue-eyed handsome youth.

I had read about this youth beforehand.

the Ruby prince, Zasha.

Though he appeared like a handsome youth, his real appearance was that of a giant, leech-like vampire.

Though he wasn't that powerful, he had a lot of stamina, destroying him was a chore.

Alas, since his weakness was fire, I was the worst opponent for him.

Zasha's mantle fluttered along with the wind as he rose up in the air.

「Zasha-sama! He's too dangerous! That dark knight can use the black flame! He might be that infamous Dark Knight!」

Zasha couldn't hide his shock upon hearing that information from the white vampire.

「Eh?! Is that so, Jusio-dono? If that's the case...」

Zasha was about to leave as he spoke.

「Same as ever eh, Zasha! To think that you're volunteering yourself as vanguard!」

A woman clad in crimson attire came closer to this place.

Princess of Fresh Blood, Zaffrada.

Hailed as the strongest among the children of death.

Her true form was that of a giant vampire bat, and she was the God revered by the vampires.

「Eh? Uhm... Big sis.」

Zasha seemed to be quite bewildered by his sister's appearance.

「This lowly priest tips my hat for you, Zasha-kun. Now fight to your heart's content.」

A one-eyed giant clad in vestment came riding on a black cloud.

The cloud was made from the gathering of countless flies that spread a foul stench in the air.

「KYAAAAAAAAAA!」

「PRINCESS!」

Unable to react in time, Zaffrada's left arm was blown off by her own magic.

Zaffrada was caught by the white vampire knight just before she fell on the ground.

Maybe because it was a powerful magic, Zaffrada's magic instantly eliminated a few specter knights behind her.

Nevertheless, the movement of that white vampire knight was really good.

He was the quickest one to catch his master before she fell after all.

「No way... Such power...」

Zalbuth groaned in frustration.

The sword held by the vampire knight was stuck on his body.

When I cut the vampire knight's arm, I made it fly toward the direction of Zalbuth.

He didn't seem to die even when the sword lodged in his stomach. What in the world is hiding inside that vestment?

「GUUUUU! HOW DARE YOU! DAMMIT! DAMMIIIIIIIIIIIIT!」

Zaffrada, who lost her left arm, sent a hateful gaze toward my direction.

All the vampire knights that got slashed by me had already turned into ashes.

She tried to kill me along with her vampire knights.

Too bad I was the one she fought of all people.

Thus she ended up losing most of her vampire knights along with her left arm.

That must be a huge emotional blow for her.

Thus, her face transformed, it was no longer a lady's face.

Long fangs grew from her split mouth. The eyes on her face grew in number until there were seven of them.

Giant bat wings grew from her back.

She finally revealed her true form.

Alas, the wounded Zaffrada didn't charge toward me. She could only glare at me from afar.

The same goes for Zalbuth.

Thus, the situation reached a stalemate in which both parties only glared at each other.

Now then, I guess I've bought enough time for the angels, this was the time to retreat.

And just when I was about to step back.

A strong hostile intent came from above.

Detecting an enemy was similar to detecting danger. Both abilities reacted in similar ways, telling me that a formidable enemy was locking on to me.

When I looked at the direction where the powerful hostile intent came from, I saw the shadow of someone heading toward this place.

Pale bluish-white skin as if there was no pigment, the lower-half of a spider and the upper half of a bat.

There was a huge mouth around his stomach.

Their twelve eyes were locking onto me.

「Never expected that you will come in person, Dark Knight.」

「Zarxis...」

Now I wouldn't be able to escape from this place anymore.
