I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 144

◈ 144. [STAGE 5] Vampire King

12 hours ago.

The night before the start of Stage 5.

Junior came to me, saying he had something to tell me while I was thinking about tactics until the very end.

“majesty. A few more things I’m hiding… … Did you know?”

I nodded.

Junior’s characteristic [Fox Den].

It is a characteristic that hides one’s abilities.

[Fox Cave]

– Always digs a hole to escape. They trick their opponents into tricking their abilities in order to get a trump card.

Junior had this characteristic from the beginning, so it was difficult to figure out the exact stats.

“I thought you would know.”

Junior laughed bitterly and carefully removed the glove from his left hand.

The back of her left hand, revealed to the world, was covered with burns from childhood, and at the same time, vivid magic patterns appeared on it.

I opened my eyes wide.

“This… .”

“If you tell me, do you know what this is?”

I nodded heavily. Junior put the glove on his hand again.

“I said that I showed all my abilities to Your Highness the other day, but that was a lie. I was hiding one more step.”

“… .”

“But I won’t hide it anymore.”

I quietly opened the system window and checked Junior’s stats.

Junior’s real level, real skills and real characteristics… … .

I let out a small sigh.

“… Does the fact that you show me what you have been hiding mean that you are ready?”

“yes. I just finished it.”

Junior smiled faintly.

“Skills to give the Vampire King a shot and preparation of my heart. entire.”

“… .”

Junior told me about the magical research results and achievements he had been digging into over the past few days.

I, who had been listening with my chin resting on my chin, slowly opened my mouth to face him.

“I also have one skill I gained this time.”

When I cleared the last dungeon, my level

was already 36. I had already acquired 2 skills.

However, it’s not a skill that is usually difficult to apply, so I was thinking of sealing it this stage.

If you link with Junior, you can use it in this stage as well.

I explained my skill set to Junior. Junior looked at me with a surprised face.

“Then, if I join forces with Your Highness… .”

“Even a vampire lord could easily kill him.”

Immediately after, I shook my head slightly.

“But Junior. you… Are you really okay? If you use that magic, you… … .”

“are you okay.”

Junior, who answered with strength, shed his signature foxy laugh.

“majesty. I wanted to be a wizard all my life.”

“… .”

“And this was the first place where the frontline treated me as a proper wizard. The moment Her Highness gave me my first pay, I decided to show my full potential here.”

Thank you very much… … .

I sighed.

“Your grandmother will be sad though.”

“Didn’t I tell you before?”

Junior just cut it off.

“I never thought that person was my grandmother.”

“… .”

“Now then, Your Highness?”

Thinking of the magic circle behind his back, Junior smiled briskly.

“Shall we do some cramming practice all night for our linkage skills tomorrow?”

above the castle wall. Stage 5 final showdown.

Taat-!

Selendion came head-on.

It was the invisible speed that I showed in the past on Loser’s Road.

But back then it was different. This time, my party members were reacting.

The first to stand in the way of Selendion was Evangeline.

Evangeline’s eyes were shining with emerald light, as if she were wearing night vision goggles.

Exclusive attribute [Crossroad].

Evangeline’s intuition itself shows the optimal battle route!

Celendion’s outstretched hand met Evangeline’s shield.

In an instant, red light exploded from Celendion’s fingertips, and Evangeline’s shield emitted white light to absorb the attack.

However, the damage absorption capacity is reached in an instant.

Tight!

The iron plate that made up the shield was crumpled like paper, and the shield on Evangeline’s left arm was bent.

The gauntlet that wrapped around Evangeline’s left arm was also shattered.

A frown spread in Celendion’s eyes.

《Ho. Responding to my movements.”

Evangeline exclaimed with her signature cheeky smile, even though her left arm was in a stance with her left arm snapped back.

“You just reacted, you bastard!”

The cavalry spear in Evangeline’s right hand was thrust forward.

slap!

but avoid

Selendion flexibly twisted her small body and avoided Evangeline’s spear point with ease.

And Evangeline had expected that far as well.

“I can’t avoid this!”

The tip of Evangeline’s lance burned white.

Bang-!

The condensed [Damage Payback] of all the damage just absorbed exploded at the tip of the spear.

“It wasn’t bad, but… .》

But even that attack, Selendion blocked it by spreading a shield with blood magic.

Shaking off her fingertips, Celendion lifted Evangeline’s body up with magic and threw it aside.

《How can they stop me when there are only three numbers prepared!》

The direction in which Celendion threw Evangeline’s body was in the direction of Lucas, who was running behind him.

“Wow!”

“What?!”

Courage!

The two knights tangled together and rolled on the floor.

At this moment, the potential was empty.

Lucas quickly gets up and starts running again, but seconds pass.

those few seconds.

A few seconds was already enough. Selendion kicked off his seat and was shot forward again.

towards me

To suck my blood, which I designated as the first prey, honestly rushed in front.

Standing behind me and on either side of me, Damien and the Old Girl Skull started firing a volley. Push! Push! Peeping-!

The rain of arrows was entwined with gusts of wind and freezing flames.

The three shared the enchantment scroll given to Damian.

Patter!

However, Selendion continued to run, grabbing the arrow shaft with his hands one by one and bouncing off the remaining silver arrows with magic.

He’s the vampire lord.

It is a monster that has mastered both body enhancement and magic, the skill tree of vampires.

It’s next to impossible to stop a guy who can’t disable both physical and magical powers.

‘So both sides have to shut it down… … .’

I quickly looked both ways.

The ‘measure’ to stop it isn’t ready yet!

In the blink of an eye, Selendion arrived right in front of me.

I have no intention of sitting still and dying! I exclaimed.

“Summons-!”

[Summoning Magic: Chimera Origin]

– This magic is disposable. When used, it disappears from the skill list.

– The level of the summoned character is the same as the level of the summoned character. You can only keep one minion at a time.

– Please specify the location to summon.

It was Chimera Origin’s summoning magic obtained during the previous Colosseum exploration.

The summoning position is, of course, the front!

Flash-!

A geometric magic circle was drawn, and then a monster with lions, goats, snakes, and other animals popped out in front of me.

The source of all chimeras. Chimera Origin.

This guy is also a boss level monster. It will hold out against Selendion even for a while.

I thought so.

《This battlefield is only for humans and me!》

A roar erupted from the mouth of the Vampire King who discovered the traitor.

《Don’t interfere, mongrel-!》

Peruk!

As Celendion waved his hand, Chimera Origin’s body exploded.

The monster summoned with poisonous blood was shattered simply and absurdly.

And Selendion reached me through the pieces of meat and the blood, and-

snapped.

grabbed my collar

Celendion’s mouth widened in a smile.

Four gleaming upper and lower fangs emitted a bloody light and fell straight down towards my neck-

Pooh!

bitten off

arm stuck in between.

Surprised to see, the one who put his arm between Selendion’s teeth and my neck… … It was an old girl.

The old girl, who looked at me with a calm face while sucking blood from her arm being bitten by a vampire, raised her hand slightly… looked shaken

smiling as usual

In the next moment, the old girl, who had sucked the life out of her body, knelt on the floor with a loud sound.

I was vampirized by the vampire lord with all my might.

can’t live Old Girl dried up like an old tree and twisted to death.

While watching this scene with a sense of bewilderment,

“Prince!”

widely!

Damian, who was standing behind me, grabbed me by the shoulders and yanked me back.

At the same time, the Skull standing to my right drew a silver dagger from his waist and charged forward.

“Your opponent is me, a vampire!”

The archers are in close combat.

What are you doing, Skul? Besides, you’re good at long-range sniping.

I wanted to dry it, but there was no time to do so. Like his code name and specialty, Skull swung his dagger aiming at the enemy’s head, and

he was blown away!

Selendion’s whole body was shattered as he was battered by the blood magic he swung as if he was annoying.

The skull’s blood droplets scattered in the air stopped falling to the ground and were all sucked into Selendion’s mouth.

Selendion, who killed Old Girl and Skull in seconds, tasted the blood in her mouth and clicked her tongue slightly.

《… is it an elf hmm. Not bad for a first meal.”

The boy-faced monster raised its mouth at me.

《As expected, eating you will alleviate this hunger, Ash?》

Damian was desperately pulling me back, but Celendion strode forward much faster.

Celendion stepped towards me with his mouth wide open as if he were playing a prank and-

Puff!

The next moment, Lucas’s longsword fell behind Celendion’s back with a flash of light.

《Huh?》

An embarrassing moan leaked from Celendion’s lips, and at the same time,

hey! Pooh! Boo-wook! Fuhuaak!

Lucas’s longsword mercilessly sliced through Celendion’s back and neck.

A longsword made of silver pierced Selendion’s spiritual core, and Selendion, unable to withstand it, fell to his knees.

hook-!

Finally, Lucas’s longsword pierced Celendion’s chest and rose forward. Accurately penetrating the spiritual core.

Seong exposed and even destroyed the Vampire King’s spiritual core just by activating his skill [Strike of Will] on his long sword.

《… What is that condition, Knight?]

Selendion, who was coughing up blood, slowly looked back.

“It’s not like I’m human… You seem to have entered the same territory as us. I can even feel a sense of kinship.”

“… .”

Lucas was in a slightly different state than usual.

Her stance was as low as that of a four-legged wolf, and through her tousled blond hair, her blue eyes radiated a dangerous light like those of a beast.

The heat radiating from the back shook like a haze.

I swallowed dry saliva.

‘I can’t believe Lucas this guy… … .’

Did you write [Beast Painting]?

I have to stop that! If you write that characteristic… … !

“Thanks, I couldn’t detect it. this is true… … .》

Selendion’s body slumped to the floor and

«… Making me use ‘one’ of my life. That’s amazing.” Right

after that, he got up again as if nothing had happened.
