Chapter 48 Vampire (4).
“Princess…? For something like that…”
I can understand Yuria’s muttering.
For a vampire princess, the aura felt by Lilith was weak.
Maybe weaker than Lisa?
It’s a situation where even a child can believe it.
Even this is the magic that can be felt because she drank Robin’s blood and regained her energy.
She thought that before that, she was really a vampire with no fighting skills.
Those who call her a princess and run to her are also formidable.
If you are an adult vampire, you should feel at least as much energy as Robin, but they also have little energy.
“Hmm, that’s different from what I knew. Weak.”
Lilith smiled bitterly at Balt’s harsh evaluation.
“There is a reason for that. Shall we not do this here and go into the city?”
My expectations were disappearing due to my poor skills than I thought, but I still thought of getting something from what I came here.
“It is.”
It was only then that Balt began to properly see Brasov, the kingdom of vampires.
As expected of a vampire’s castle, the castle has an antique grayish-white pointed roof. And a somewhat gloomy atmosphere.
A cloud of blood blocking the ceiling creates a mysterious atmosphere as it wanders around Asrai.
It is thrilling to venture into a place like this, even if the purpose is set aside.
Feeling a slight pounding sensation, Balt follows Lilith.
***
That’s how we arrived at the entrance of the castle.
General human performance is different in appearance. A typical human castle is generally in the form of a moat surrounded by a drawbridge.
However, the entrance to the Vampire Castle now visible in front of Balt was a little, no, it was in a position that anyone who could not use mana could not even climb up.
“Oh, I made it hard to get into this.”
Was it because of the war? The castle’s defense was raised to the extreme by raising the entrance.
Because of this, relatively few vampires could have survived for a long time.
I was thinking about whether I should jump or ask the gnomes for help, but the entry into the castle was easier than I thought.
“Wait a minute.”
After finishing her words, Lilith immediately closed her hand and murmured an incantation of unknown words.
Ugh-
The bloody aura emanating from Lilith creates a bridge and makes a way to Brasov’s main gate, which is quite high.
Since the gates were also open and closed, when Lilith’s red legs touched the gates, the gates began to open with a loud noise without resistance.
Koo woo woong-
“Let’s go in, the sacred place of vampires. Welcome to Brasov.”
A truly mystical sight.
Feeling satisfied, Balt puts his foot on the bloody leg first.
“Oh, it’s solid. Amazing.”
“It is an application of blood magic.”
Brasov arrived led by Lilith.
The scale of the city itself was a bit less than the imperial capital, but it was still a very large city.
Since a single city forms a kingdom, it must be wide.
But it’s strange. I don’t see many people on the street, no vampires.
Even the people I could see glanced this way and then continued their helpless steps.
Robin noticed that and made a questionable expression.
“Hmm, that sounds strange… Something seems to be happening….”
Lilith shows the bitter smile she showed earlier and hurries her way to the castle.
“I’ll go back to the castle and tell you. As expected, our situation is not so good.”
Something must be happening. No matter how much vampires say they like dark places, this is no different from a dead city.
The only way to solve the question is to visit.
The castle where the Vampire King of Brasov lives was no different.
As expected, the entrance was hanging high up. Still, there are a lot of vampires in the castle, but bats pour out of the window rather than a large castle gate and line up in front of Lilith.
“Go, Princess! You are safe!!”
Although Balt was slightly suspicious, it seems certain that Lilith is a princess.
Then I start to have doubts.
The biggest question is why the vampire princess went to that human village.
I can guess that there is a situation, but the problem is that this weak princess has to go there.
Lilith, who was greeted by the castle’s servants, introduces the Balt party.
“They are my lifesavers, please be polite and not hostile.”
The servants greet the Baltic party with a kiss.
“Thank you. Benefactors! Come on, princess, eat inside. Your Majesty is waiting for you.”
“Okay, I’ll go in with my benefactors.”
“But….”
Lilith dismisses her servant’s negative reaction with a single stroke.
“You might be the nobleman who can solve this situation. Do I have to explain all these things?”
“… ….”
“Go and see your business. Don’t you have time to be like this?”
The servants rushed to Lilith’s words and left their seats again.
Situation? Noble?
Looking at the strength of Balt’s party, Lilith seems to be asking for help.
Not bad. It was unfortunate that vampires were weaker than expected, but the fact that they use blood magic is an unchanging fact.
It is beneficial in many ways to erase her debt to Lilith and become friends with vampires and learn her blood magic.
As Lilith recites her spell again, the blood-red bridge we saw earlier continues, and the Balts enter the gray-white giant castle.
While walking all the way to this place, Balt and the others prepared for any unexpected situation with Amrit.
It is clear that Lilith is benevolent, but she has figured out her retreat route in preparation for her unforeseen situation.
However, short-range communication between Balt, Robin, and Yuria was possible here, but communication with Lisa and the others was impossible.
Perhaps that barrier magic on the ceiling is interfering in some way.
Unlike its off-white exterior, the inside of the castle is full of red decorations like a vampire.
The red carpet, which can only be seen at awards ceremonies, is standard, and the background color of the picture frames hanging on the wall is all red.
I could guess how much their love for red was so much that even the ornaments put a red flower in a red vase.
However, compared to the size of the huge castle, the decorations look a bit shabby.
The party, who did not dare to speak out, passed through the huge stairs and corridors and visited the throne room where the vampire lord was supposed to be waiting.
In front of a door big enough for 10 men to walk side by side, Lilith speaks softly.
“Girl, I’m back. Father.”
If your father is a king, it seems that unlike humans who use the title thoroughly, a vampire’s etiquette is not very thorough.
Kihihi thump!
The door to the huge throne room opens, and Balt, Robin, and Yuria feel the oppressive pressure from the tremendous energy they feel.
Incredible energy of at least 8 circles.
Coo goo goo goo-
With the exception of Balt, Robin and Yuria drool at the sudden flow of magical power.
“Queup!”
Bald is rather excited.
Because I was losing interest because of the low level vampires.
However, the magic that he is showing now was enough to raise Balt’s curiosity again.
‘That’s interesting!’
“Suck!”
Amplifies mana by giving strength to the body.
I couldn’t completely defeat all of the magic pressure of the 8th circle, but Balt’s enormous magic made it possible for Balt to move at least.
‘Awesome! This much pressure!’
As an aura, it is the level of a sword master, and as a wizard, it is the level of an arc mage.
The only person Balt has ever met on the 8th floor or higher is the emperor, Marcel. And those two are Aura users.
For the first time seeing a pure 8th circle arc mage, Balt couldn’t help but be excited.
“Oh, Father! Do not! These are the people who saved me!”
Then, the sticky pressure of magic disappears without a mouse or a bird.
“I’m sorry. Balt! My father must have been worried about me!”
When Lilith bowed her head and apologized, Balt just shrugged her shoulders as if it was nothing.
From noble mtl dot com.
“It’s okay, you seem to be a father who loves his daughter so much.”
[Come closer.]
Loud and low bass.
A voice filled with magical power thought to belong to the Vampire King is heard by the Balt party.
I step forward and enter the audience room.
But it’s strange. No one was in the audience room except the Vampire King.
If it is a king, the way his servants assist the audience.
This is a problem. It is said that something is going on in this vampire castle right now.
Balt, who thought it was interesting, opened his mouth.
“Nice to meet you. It’s called the Baltic Geryntu. You are the king of vampires.”
It can be seen as a bit cheeky, but originally, barbarians are not very polite.
At least it’s about the Baltic level, so that’s how polite it is.
“This is Robin Ashe. Majesty.”
“I’m Yuria Lycant.”
The king of vampires looking down on them.
Vladir Bloodwell.
In the long history of vampires, he is a young king who has been the king of vampires for only 200 years.
King Vladir’s lips move and a calm voice is heard.
