Mushoku no Eiyuu ~Betsu ni Skill Nanka Iranakattan daga~

Dad!　These people are going to heal their wounds!

Hmm, it's true.

The vampires that should have been cut down were getting up one by one.

Leila was right, the cuts were repairing themselves.

''Kuhahahaha!　No use, humans!　I commend you for locating us, but no more. You will be my bait!

The vampire at the farthest back echoed loudly.

It seems that this guy is the leader of the group, and the amount of magic power he possesses inside is clearly different from the other vampires.

You're going to be able to get a great deal more out of it. --Holy Ray.

Giaaaaahhhh!

The vampire who had taken a direct hit roared out a scream as he released a purifying light with the White Magic Law.

Even though the light subsided, there was no sign of recovery for the part that had dissolved into sludge after being hit by the light.

I wondered if it was because of its weakness to the sun's light, but it still seems to work.

''You aren't a swordsman?

Unfortunately, I'm also a magician.

I proceed to fire a series of Holy Rays.

He also followed my lead and released Ark and Layla as well.

''Even these kids!

You're kidding me!

Giaaaaah!

One after another, the vampires were dying out in the light of purification.

''d*mn!　My people...!　I will not allow it!

The leader vampire leapt at him in anger.

'Holy Ray,'

It's useless!　As an advanced vampire (arc vampire), that level of purification magic doesn't work on me!

Hmm, it seems this guy has a lot of resistance.

''Let's try making it stronger. Holy Cross.

'Ggghhhh!'

Whoa, that's working.

I mean, that's ridiculous.... that you could even use a holy cross...

After annihilating the vampires hiding in the Red Academy, we immediately went to the next academy.

And we steadily eradicated them.

Finally, we finished cleaning up the vampires in the basement of the Black Academy.

''Okay, that's all of them.''

It's over.

Laina asks as she exhales tiredly.

'Hmm.... Can we assume that the people of the city are now free of the vampires' control?

No, I've still got one more thing to do.

"?　What's that?

Shifting my gaze away from Laina, who tilts her head, I turn to it, which sticks to the ceiling of the room.

It was a lone bat.

''I've noticed you long ago. Why don't you reveal yourself soon?

Well, even if I don't intend to, I'm going to expose you for what you are.

"Holy Ray.

He shoots a purifying light at that bat.

However, the bat quickly escapes into the air and comes down to the ground, spinning in midair.

At that moment, the bat regains its true form as an enormous amount of magical power is released.

''Ha!　Vampires!　I didn't know you were still alive!

As Laina hurriedly braced herself, the vampire cowered her shoulders and let out a breath.

''Totally, you've really made a mess of things, haven't you? We'll have to start all over again from scratch, won't we?

"You think I'd let you do that?　You're pretty much the only one left, right?

'Hahaha, there's nothing wrong with that. What you have defeated is just a pawn. As long as I, Vlad, the true ancestor of vampires, am here, I can create as many as I want.

Hmm, I don't know how they do it, but I heard that vampires breed differently than humans.

'Then I guess we'll just have to take you down.

That's one way of putting it, isn't it? But that's not possible.

I say to Ark and Leila.

'That's why. You two go at it together.

'Yes!　I'll do my best!

'What?　Are we going to do that?

Leila throws her hands up in the air, motivated, and Ark rolls his eyes.

Laina shouts out.

'Wait a minute!　This guy's not just any guy!　Probably the head of the Demon King's army!　I don't care how dangerous it is!

Don't worry. You've got a good match.

The Demon King's Army leaders I encountered in the City of Swords were defeated by me.

I'll leave it to the two of you this time.

''Kukuk.......hahahahahaha!

Vlad suddenly burst out laughing.

'The kid?　You know who I am?　Human parents are terrible with themselves for being the first to sacrifice their children.

All right, son, let's not be so careless. It's already started.

What?

Leila had already kicked the ground and was fleshed out.

A slash sliced deeply into Vlad's neck.

Vlad looked at him for a moment, but immediately smiled with a spare smile.

His neck, which should have been almost torn to shreds, was connected in a flash.

''I'll be healed soon~!

Leila is amazed at the speed of repair, which is incomparable to the vampires so far.

Meanwhile, Ark had come around behind Vlad.

The sword's blade was wrapped in a shimmering light.

''Ta!''

Huh?

His back was slashed, and Vlad twisted his face.

''........I see.......So you gave the sword a purification spell? But it won't work to this extent.

However, the scars that should have been exposed to the cleansing light were also repaired in the blink of an eye.

''Hmm!　Okay, here you go!　Holy Cross!

Layla unleashed a cleansing spell that worked on advanced vampires as well.

It enveloped Vlad's entire body.

However, even after the light subsided, Vlad stood there with a fearless smile on his face.

''It didn't work very well!

It's like...

'Kukku, I'm a true ancestor, you know?　Whether it's cleansing magic or sunshine, it's not valid before me here.

Then, as what he thought, Vlad slashed his own wrist with his fingernails.

Blood spurted out - it was wielded like a whip.

''Huh!''
