“Roar!”
A massive Evil Dragon descended from the sky, charging towards Elmenhilde.
“Be careful, Elmen-Sama!”
A female Vampire who always guarded Elmenhilde leaped into action, releasing a chilling aura that instantly froze the entire Evil Dragon into an ice sculpture. With a cold snort, Elmenhilde conjured several fireballs, causing the frozen Evil Dragon to explode into fragments.
“Elmen-Sama, are you okay?”
“I’m fine, don’t worry about me.”
Signaling her subordinates not to be concerned, Elmenhilde surveyed the battlefield.
The Evil Dragon army had stopped increasing, Carmilla’s Pawns were gradually organizing an effective defense, ordinary civilians had evacuated the battlefield, and in the distant sky, Queen Carmilla, Okaa-Sama, and several elders were relentlessly eliminating the enemy.
Feeling uplifted, Elmenhilde couldn’t help but believe that they could win if things continued this way.
However, at that moment…
“Look, what is that?”
“Evil Dragons, those are Evil Dragons!”
“Oh no, get out of the way!”
A Vampire Pawn discovered something amiss, prompting everyone to look in the direction indicated. They saw a black dot rapidly approaching from the distant horizon.
It was another Evil Dragon, an absurdly gigantic one!
Before long, the colossal Evil Dragon arrived over the city and landed on the ground with a resounding crash.
“Ah… Ahhh…”
Including Elmenhilde, all the Vampires were utterly shocked.
This Evil Dragon was more massive than all the others, and eerily, it had a human face on its forehead!
“Roar!”
The Evil Dragon roared before opening its enormous mouth, unleashing an endless stream of flame that engulfed the entire town below. Vampires and Evil Dragons still engaged in combat struggled and screamed in the sea of fire, eventually burning to ashes.
“Elmen-Sama!”
“Ahhhhhhh!”
With a changed expression, the female Vampire next to Elmenhilde quickly pulled her up and fled. However, others were not as fortunate. Hundreds of Vampires and Evil Dragons struggled and screamed in the inferno, ultimately turning into ashes.
The next day, in Tepes’ royal city, at the embassy building—
“Gasper, are we really going to the outside world?”
“Yeah, the outside world is much more interesting than here. You’ll understand when you see it, Valerie.”
“Are there bad people outside? Will they bully us?”
“While there are some bad people, there are also many good ones.”
“Don’t worry, even if someone wants to bully Valerie, I will protect you!”
As they were about to leave the Vampire territory for the outside world, seeing Valerie looking nervous, Gasper patted his chest as he spoke.
“Gasper will protect me, right? Is that okay?” Examining Gasper from head to toe, Valerie expressed her doubt.
“Don’t judge me by my appearance. I’ve trained hard with Tenraku Sama and learned a lot from Azazel-Sensei. I’m a man now, fully capable of protecting Valerie!”
“But Gasper still likes to wear girls’ clothes like before. It feels a bit unreliable.”
“I, I only wear girls’ clothes because of Valerie’s request! Valerie made me do it back then!”
“Eh, did that really happen? Why don’t I remember?”
“Stop pretending. It’s all Valerie’s fault!”
“Besides, even if I wear girls’ clothes, my heart will always be that of a man. I’ve already resolved to become a man like Tenraku Sama and Azazel-Sensei!”
“Become a man like Tenraku? Gasper, that’s probably not happening. While having ideals is good, it’s essential to see reality clearly.”
“Wuwuwu… Valerie, that’s too much!”
“Hehehehe…”
Indeed, the straightforward ones are the most deadly when they reveal their true colors. Gasper felt like he had received tons of damage, covering his face and running away, leaving the hall filled with laughter from the Xuelan and others.
“What are you laughing at? Everyone ready? Once you’re prepared, we’ll leave.” Tenraku spoke after coming out of the room along with Yubelluna and Raynare.
After a night’s rest, Tenraku and the girls were ready to leave the Vampire territory. Once everyone was prepared, Yubelluna activated the transmission formation.
“Yubelluna, we don’t need the transmission formation. First, let’s accompany Tosca to pay respects to his comrades, then we’ll leave.”
“Tenraku-Sama…”
Unexpectedly, Tenraku remembered this matter, touching Tosca’s forehead, and then he and the girls set off, leaving the embassy building.
Under the destruction caused by the Evil Dragons, the entire Tepes royal city had turned into ruins. The Vampires who had survived were nowhere to be found. The once-thriving Vampire city had become desolate. Occasionally, a crow would land on the ruins, emitting a few mournful cries.
Just two days ago, it was a bustling Vampire city, but in the blink of an eye, it had become so devastated and desolate. Tenraku and the girls couldn’t help but feel a bit of lamentation.
However, all of this was the result of Tepes’ own doing; they had no one to blame but themselves!
Before long, Tenraku and his party reached the border. As long as they passed through a misty area, they could leave the Vampire territory.
However, at that moment…
“Wait, Red Dragon Emperor!”
Someone suddenly called out to Tenraku. Turning around, he saw a group of Vampires hastily approaching them.
They were members of the Carmilla Faction, and leading them was none other than Elmenhilde, someone familiar to Tenraku.
Unlike before, Elmenhilde appeared quite disheveled. Her face was covered in dust, her beautiful golden hair was in disarray, and Tenraku and the girls almost didn’t recognize her.
“Elmen San, what happened to you?” Tenraku asked in surprise.
“Our territory was attacked by those Evil Dragons. We fought against them all night.” Breathing heavily, Elmen explained while seemingly aware of her disheveled appearance. Blushing, she hastily adjusted her attire and wiped her face.
However, wiping her face seemed to make things worse.
“Elmen San, we were planning to leave already. Is there something you need from us?” Tenraku inquired while suppressing his laughter.
After catching her breath and fixing herself up a bit, Elmenhilde raised her head and looked directly at Tenraku.
“Red Dragon Emperor, please help us!”
