Chapter 476 – Master of Blood (2)

Blood pours like rain from the sky.

Chi-Ik-

Buildings and floors that come in contact with the dripping blood begin to melt, emitting a foul smell and smoke.

Blood Rain. Iona’s magic, which turns everything within range into a handful of blood, was fired at Vlad at maximum power.

Of course, it didn’t work on Vlad. Blood Rain was originally a magic designed to effectively deal with weaker enemies.

It is an attack that has no meaning to Vlad, who is a higher level being than Iona.

Vlad, who was regenerating faster than melting flesh, shouted in an angry voice.

“… “Is this a feat that can be done with such a lot of effort?”

Vlad has spent his entire life studying the traces of dragons hidden in his blood. It’s no wonder that she feels a little sick knowing that she was lucky enough to obtain the half-dragon’s blood and that it was just a magic trick for sheep.

Of course, Vlad’s insult was of no concern to Iona.

“Well. “We’ll just have to wait and see what I’m going to do, right?”

Ionaga raised the corners of her mouth with a grin and took a step into the bloody downpour she had caused. And the next moment she was standing behind Vlad’s back.

“What!?”

Vlad, taken aback by the strangely skillful Blink, hurriedly turned around, but it was a little late. Because I was already holding her in both hands and screaming out her blood spear.

Squirt!

One is aimed at her heart and the other is aimed at her head.

Either way, it is an area that can cause fatal damage even to vampires with good regenerative abilities. … That is, if you are an ordinary vampire.

Ttuduk.

Vlad dodged the blood spear flying towards his head by tilting his head at a bizarre angle. Instead, he ended up getting his heart pierced…

Even though he was stabbed in the heart, which is the weak point of all vampires, Vlad still waved his arms with a calm expression.

This time, it wasn’t just a blade shooting out of the sleeve. Because even the blood that had flowed from his wrist had swept across the front lines.

“Tch.”

Because Iona was prepared for her failure, she was able to widen the distance with her Blink in time.

Thanks to her mastery of space magic, which has increased dramatically while working with Yandel, her entire process is extremely smooth. There is still the problem that her magical power consumption is high.

Kwak-ga-ga-ga-gak!

Iona swallowed her dry saliva at the sight of Vlad’s front end being torn apart beyond recognition. If she had evaded it in a different way to save her magic power, she would not have been able to escape its aftermath.

“… “How can you be okay when your heart has been pierced?”

“Hmm? Ah, that’s a simple thing.”

Vlad, who had been so angry just a moment ago, spoke in a soft tone as if he had never raised his voice before.

“The reason the heart is a vampire’s weak point is because it is the space that holds true blood. It’s the same logic as when a bowl breaks, it becomes difficult to handle the water that leaks out. But my blood has already exceeded the amount my heart can hold. “I don’t usually rely on my heart, so it’s no longer my weakness.”

“Crazy guy…”

Jinhyeol is the essence of a vampire made by condensing and condensing blood. You carry around so much of that stuff. Iona had no idea how much blood she had absorbed.

Of course, just like Iona did a moment ago, Vlad continued to say what he wanted to say, paying no heed to her partner’s reaction.

“I’ll take back what I said earlier about how much you can do with this much blood. “Thanks to you, I remembered something fun.”

“I don’t know what it is, but it’s not going to work out the way you think!”

Iona rushes in aggressively, as if she wants to knock Vlad down before he can do anything. The muscles strengthened by the Blood Force instantly accelerated her body.

A red mist decorates the air following her trajectory. Her cost-effectiveness is poor because it consumes a large amount of her vitality and magic power, but Crimson Fog is a magic that has great utility.

A lot of blood will be consumed in real time, but now is not the time to save on blood transfusion packs, so it doesn’t matter.

Instead of Blink, who is not ready yet, it is important to provide support for Iona and a means of avoiding emergencies.

Despite Iona’s seemingly unusual appearance, Vlad still had a calm expression. Surely his excellent visual acuity would have caught Iona’s appearance.

He looks at Iona as he quietly approaches and then surprises him and pulls out the blood spear that is still stuck in her heart.

Haha!

The blood that poured from her chest like a fountain formed into the maw of a beast, threatening to swallow Iona whole.

If we continue like this, we will end up rushing into the mouth of an animal. So Iona decided to push herself a little harder.

“Haaaaa!”

The crimson fog that enveloped Iona’s entire body expanded momentarily, taking on an angular shape like her armor.

With her new armor in her hands, Iona kicked her hard into the ground.

Thud!

The ground is dented with slight vibration. The seams of her armor opened slightly, and mana and blood, mixed in a one-to-one ratio, began to spray from the inside.

Some kind of booster. It was a huge waste of resources, but Vlad decided that Iona was not someone to fight with, so he just squeezed out her power.

In an instant, Iona, who had become a human tank, caught not the weapon that had been floating in advance, but a spear that had been newly woven with her blood art.

This time, it was not an ordinary long spear, but a large form similar to a charging lance mainly used by knights. However, the design is clunky and in some ways looks like a huge pile.

“Die… !!”

Paang!

Iona’s new type that shoots out completely destroying the jaw created by Vlad. This time, her target was not her heart but her head.

This was because he thought it was a weakness that could not be overcome, seeing as he protected her head even by bending her neck so violently that his ears touched her shoulder.

So much mass and speed converged on the sharp tip of her spear. Just as a knight’s lance charge was synonymous with fear in the distant past, Iona exudes a ferocious force that no one can stop.

However, unfortunately, there are some things that her momentum alone cannot do. Vlad did not avoid Iona’s magic like before. He instead opened her mouth wide.

Her own mouth, not the mouth of an animal made of blood.

Jeokjeok-!

Unlike the animal’s jaw, which was broken without any strength, Vlad stopped it by firmly biting the end of the lance.

For a moment, Iona was astonished by her incredible physical abilities.

Clink!

Vlad closed her mouth completely, swallowing the broken piece of blood-red lance, and clenched her fist, laughing with his mouth that was torn below her ear.

Haha!”

Her muscles seemed to stand out, and then the sleeve on her right arm burst, expanding to three times its original size.

“That monster…”

Iona, with a slightly tired expression on her face, used her blood magic weapon, which she had floated nearby, as a shield in her haste.

Of course she didn’t think she could be stopped. She’s good for a moment, so all she has to do is block Vlad’s fist. If she does that, she will be able to avoid it with Blink this time too.

Quang!

The fist came right in front of her nose, shattering all of her weapons in an instant. But she was able to narrowly avoid it with Blink.

Iona grabbed Vlad’s back and rushed towards her, raising her magic power again.

He wields a weapon created through blood magic, restricts Vlad’s actions with blood-colored thorn vines created through magic, and somehow escapes dangerous situations using a combination of Blood Force, Crimson Fog, and Blink.

Iona seems like she can’t be caught, and she launches all kinds of one-sided attacks.

Her blood packs stored in her sub-space began to dwindle one by one as the battle literally drained her blood, but Iona did not stop.

For her, stopping now would mean death.

After fighting for so long, the scent of blood spread all around us. Was it because of his aggressive fighting style?

Even though she couldn’t land a fatal attack on Vlad, she was able to leave quite a few minor wounds. The problem is that she has regenerated everything, but how does it work for her anyway?

It was then that her secretly hopeful observation rose into Iona’s mind.

Paang!

Vlad’s arm swung, more like a sledgehammer than her fist. However, instead of aiming for Iona like before, it was aimed at the sky.

To be more precise, she had hit the Blood Rain spell, which made her blood spray like rain.

A dark red cloud that suddenly opens a hole and melts into space. It wasn’t even a direct hit, but it was the end of her magic that left her in a state of cotton candy.

Instead of using the Blink that she had been using so well, she was Io who was belatedly widening the distance between herself and her by jumping directly. Vlad was laughing at me.

“As expected, Blink can’t avoid it without the assistance of her temporary area.”

“…”

Iona chews her lips in silence.

Yes. Iona’s Blood Rain is not intended to attack her Vlad, but to spread her own blood to the area around her and make it her territory.

Because each of her raindrops was made up of her own blood, she was able to quickly react to Vlad’s movements and even quickly cast Blink, a high-level magic that she had become accustomed to.

Now it’s impossible.

Iona, clad in even more crimson fog, opened her mouth in a slightly tired voice.

“It’s difficult. “I didn’t know she would get caught so soon.”

“Life is essentially a series of difficulties.”

Her mouth was torn to the bottom of her ears, and her sharp teeth consisted only of fangs. And for a monster of this type with a bloated right arm to say, it’s a very normal line.

Iona’s forehead furrowed in displeasure, but then straightened again. This is because I felt a sense of discomfort from her unpleasantness itself.

“… Huh?”

A feeling of rejection that is too excessive to be called a feeling of heterogeneity due to appearance. Vlad chuckled in an amused tone as he watched Iona tracing the source.

“This. Have you already been caught? But it’s already too late.”

Before she knew it, the blood that had reached her ankles was splashed a couple of times, and she suddenly began to boil.

No matter how generously Iona used her blood, this amount was too much. Only then could I see Vlad’s scars on her again.

Vlad’s heart, which is pouring out blood until this very moment.

“This…”

“Okay. Didn’t I say that it reminded me of something fun? “I’ll show you from now on.”

Vlad’s red eyes flashed briefly, and soon a huge amount of blood spurted out from the floor.

Sigh!

No, it wasn’t just a surge. Because a building was being built using her blood as material.

Gorgeous decoration. Ominous red lighting. A tall staircase and a colorful chair at the end. And thick walls and ceilings surrounding it on all sides without a single window.

Vlad sat on the throne in a strange space that looked like a throne room at first glance, but was also like an arena in some ways.

Then, in a joyful voice, he spread his symmetrical arms wide.

“Welcome to my palace! “I was able to complete this place thanks to you, so I hope you enjoy it!”

While Vlad was catching up, Iona took out another blood transfusion pack and drank it, then tilted her head crookedly.

She didn’t realize it, but her posture resembled Yandel’s.

“Hmm… That tidyer.”

“…”

In other words, it was extremely unlucky.
