The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　Although the other party was wearing an "armor" that had never been seen before, the enhancement that the "armor" provided to the wearer was originally based on the wearer's own strength.

　No matter how powerful the "armor" is, a person who lacks inherent strength cannot suddenly become a strong person.

　Moreover, "armor" consumes a great deal of magic power; the more intense the battle, the more power is used, and the greater the consumption.

　So her initial idea was to pretend to fight back against the other party, trying to appear evenly matched, until the other party's magic power was about to be exhausted, and then pretend to be knocked away with all her might—smoothly exiting the battlefield.

　You have to understand that the opponent is a powerful human being who is "armed" and there is another powerful figure who is hiding his strength in the process. As a weak vampire princess, isn't it reasonable for her to run away in order to save her life?

　To show her disheveled state, Nalar was even prepared to flee the City of Freedom in one breath, to a place thousands of miles away!

　This group of suddenly appearing academic archmages was completely beyond its comprehension, and it had long wanted to escape.

　If the "immortal demon king" weren't truly unkillable, it would have been worried about the demon king seeking revenge later, and wouldn't have dragged it out until now.

　Thinking she had found an opportunity, Naral remained cautious and steady as she began to fight Dark.

　After this exchange, Nalar regretted her decision.

　The opponent was at least twice as strong as she had estimated. While it wasn't powerless to fight back, it couldn't control the entire situation either.

　If you can't control the whole scene, how can you act without leaving a trace?

　"It's not good..."

　Nalar immediately felt hesitant and wanted to back down.

　Thus, in the initial tentative sexual encounter, Nalar failed to maintain her composure and was careless when Dark severed one of her arms with a "double slash"!

　Seeing the arm flying off at the root, Nalar was suddenly startled. Her entire body transformed into a swarm of bats with a "bang," which flew out like lightning, chasing after the arm and surrounding it. After being surrounded by bats, the arm also successfully decomposed into bats.

　Nalar reformed herself amidst the swarm of bats, her mask and black robe falling to the ground in the wind.

　Her face was then revealed to human eyes for the first time.

　In that fleeting glimpse, Dark Demon, who had been chasing after him with his sword, suddenly stopped mid-air.

　A look of surprise appeared on Dak's face.

　There was no fear, just pure surprise.

　There are always all sorts of unexpected coincidences in this world, and whenever someone encounters one, they find it incredible.

　Dark's experiences so far have been quite bizarre, but he never expected that in this situation he would encounter a real "vampire heiress" whose facial features were exactly like Victoria's!

　Since Victoria rarely left the Duke's Palace or St. Mary's College, the possibility that the other party deliberately changed to this extent is extremely low.

　Moreover, upon closer inspection, the face that appears before you is more mature than Victoria's.

　A vampire's appearance is not subject to the decay of time; high-level vampires can selectively freeze their appearance at a certain point in time.

　Most vampires, on the other hand, will generally maintain an appearance similar to that of an eighteen-year-old human.

　Naral Vlad was no exception in this regard.

　Therefore, her face naturally appeared more mature than Victoria's at that time.

　But this doesn't prevent others from immediately recognizing the similarity between the two faces.

　Dark stopped what he was doing, his mind racing as he considered all the possible reasons why this situation had occurred.

　Victoria's appearance is derived from "Blood Princess" Ophelia and the vampire Vlad who was unexpectedly revived in the secret passage.

　Let's rule out the possibility that this vampire is related to the "Blood Princess" by blood.

　The answer is already obvious.

　So Dark tentatively asked, "Vlad?"

　Nara's expression changed immediately.

　Vlad is one of the oldest vampire families. As the war drew to a close, all members of these families were marked as "dead men," and were thus subjected to a massive manhunt.

　The vast majority of those who were "inevitable to die" have already died.

　A very small number survived, but they continued to suffer relentless persecution from the Holy Church.

　As Vlad's last successor, Naral had already used a substitution method to have her name crossed off the "death list".

　Therefore, the one thing she absolutely cannot let humans know is her surname, "Vlad"!

　But now, this secret, for reasons that have puzzled her for a long time, has been exposed on this occasion!

　"Damn it!"

　At this moment, for the first time, Nalar felt a murderous intent towards the boy in front of her.

　But before she could think it through, the young man pounced on her with an even more ferocious attack than before!

　It was as if he and Vlad had some deep-seated hatred between them.

　……

　There is no deep-seated hatred.

　I just hate it.

　Dark stepped through the void and moved swiftly. Moonlight reflected off the sword, and the sword light flowed like water, drawing a bright, thin line in the air before sealing the chest with a single strike!

　Nalar suddenly leaned back, but her chest almost burst due to her excitement. In this critical moment, she used both hands as if they were moving, and countless bats poured out from her palms, quickly growing from tiny ants to normal size, and swarmed towards Dak's front body.

　She then took the opportunity to sink, escaping danger once again.

　Although Dark's evolved form, "Night Tiger God," possesses a fourth-tier rank and stats comparable to nine-star and ten-star magical spirits, its ultimate attack is relatively monotonous.

　"Divine Armament" grants immunity to most transformation-type ultimate attacks.

　The "Moon Wheel Mirror Spin" counterattack only lasts for thirty seconds.

　"Moon Tiger Descent" can summon "Moon Tiger", but it can only last for thirty seconds.

　"Moon Tiger Roar" is extremely powerful, but it is obviously best consumed in conjunction with "Moon Tiger".

　Each of these four ultimate moves is very powerful, but their combination is actually rather awkward.

　This means that "Night Tiger God" does not possess any special skills for flexible adaptability.

　In a typical protracted battle, Dark can only use the "single scabbard" to rely on his swordsmanship to demonstrate his strength.

　But his swordsmanship... is actually quite average in the face of a true master.

　The only reason they have gained a temporary advantage is because of Nalar's concealment of her true abilities and the sharpness of her holy sword.

　Fortunately, he had long been aware of this, so he always held onto his trump cards, waiting for the right opportunity to strike decisively!

　Since the vampire lady wants to put on this act, he'll play along.

　When the drama gets really intense, let's just have him die along the way!

　But with her identity unexpectedly exposed, Nalar could no longer continue her act.

　Dark hadn't considered this point and hadn't expected Nalar to choose to break character after just a few moves.

　The battlefield situation changes extremely rapidly.

　After dodging the sword strike with a bridge-like movement and then releasing a swarm of bats to harass it, Nalar made a decisive decision.

　At this moment, astonishing auras erupted from several other battlefields, making her realize that the demons were not without fighting power, and thus she became even more decisive when displaying her killing intent.

　Without any hesitation, she leaned back and maintained her upper body in an astonishingly stable horizontal position, perfectly showcasing the flexibility of her waist. Her entire body seemed to transform into a longbow stretched to its limit, while her right leg became an arrow—splashing out in an instant!

　In that instant, a murderous intent flashed forth. Blood condensed into a sharp, thin blade at the toe of his right foot, slashing upwards towards the midline of Dark's lower body, creating an astonishing arc of blood, intending to disembowel Dark from bottom to top!

　Although the Night Tiger God's defense is as high as 4500 points, Naral has already tested its strengths and weaknesses. While this attack may not guarantee a fatal blow to a magical spirit in a magical duel, a human who is disemboweled like this has virtually no chance of survival.

　Even if he doesn't die on the spot, Nalar will finish him off with a fatal blow!

　There is no mercy in the battle between life and death; the outcome is simply a matter of life and death.

　But Naral underestimated Dark Dimon's vigilance.

　Not to mention the "fairy puppet" he was wearing for his own life. He didn't relax at all when he unleashed that sword strike.

　Nalar's murderous aura swept over him, and in that instant, he was unable to adjust his posture to dodge. But this did not prevent him from activating "Moon Goddess Mirror Spin" in that split second!

　He didn't see that Naral's long, slender legs were moving beneath him. But the effect of "Moon Goddess Mirror Turn" covered his entire armor, leaving no gaps.

　The power of moonlight stored in the "Moon God Mirror" was released instantly, and the already smooth armor of the "Night Tiger God" instantly turned into a mirror.

　Naral's kick landed on the mirrored armor beneath him, encountering unexpected force.

　The mirrored armor, which had completely withstood the force of the kick, vibrated instantly, reflecting all the power of the kick back!

　"Crack!"

　Nalar's toes bent downwards as a result, and cracks appeared in the bones of her feet, causing excruciating pain.

　Her expression changed drastically in that instant; her already pale face became even paler.

　Dark Dimon, who was passively put into the "thirty-second card-flipping" time, also unleashed "Sword Dance" in that instant.

　Although his "Sword Dance" can only amplify his base attack by a maximum of 50%, "Night Tiger God's" base attack is a full 5000 points. This amplification increases the power of a single sword strike from 7100 points to 9600 points!

　A single sword strike dealing nearly ten thousand damage is equivalent to a full-force attack from the "Giant Rock Bear" after it has "grown up".

　"This sword must hit its mark!"

　The thought flashed through Dark's mind. While keeping his lower body still, he readjusted his posture with both hands holding the sword and slashed down with all his might!

　Nalar was in excruciating pain in her right foot from the reflective force of the mirror armor when she saw the sword light slashing down from above.

　In that instant, it almost instinctively disintegrated into countless bats once again.

　But the sword strike, still swirling with storm, continued relentlessly, instantly annihilating a large number of bats with its light.

　The rest of the bats scattered in panic.

　Nalar's consciousness was scattered among thousands of bats, but the thoughts that arose were completely synchronized.

　She saw that Dark had used his full strength in another strike, without holding back. A thought flashed through her mind, and she manipulated all the bats to swarm towards him.

　With their power dispersed, the bats naturally couldn't break through the Night Tiger God's defenses at this moment.

　But a large number of bats quickly gathered behind him, and Nalar's disintegrated body reassembled in that instant. Then, her hands, glowing with blood-red light, wrapped around Dark's neck like crab claws opening a floodgate.

　Since a burst of power cannot break through the mirror armor, we should first use gentle force to clamp it down, and then twist its head off once the mirror effect disappears!

　Nalar's eyes flashed with bloodlust, and her face contorted into a ferocious expression.

　Before her lower body had even fully formed, blood-red light spilled from her body, transforming into a dozen or so blood-pulsating tentacles that wrapped around Dark's limbs.

　—Naral did indeed find one of the flaws in the "Moon Goddess Mirror Turn".

　But she probably never imagined that Dark had already become a hot potato after wearing the "Moon Pendant".

　Under the moonlight, the effect of "Moon Pendant" is doubled.

　People who come into contact with dak are more likely to be captivated by them.

　Nalar possesses powerful spiritual strength and her bloodline grants her inherent resistance. However, the moonlight power flowing through Dark's body as the "Moon God Mirror Reversal" technique was already assimilated by the immense "Moon God Version of Elysium" that was equally pure within the "Moon God Mirror."

　At this moment, Naral is essentially in direct contact with a lake filled with "Moon Goddess Elysium," and is further amplified by the allure of the "Moon Pendant."

　With these multiple enhancements, no matter how strong her mental power was, she was completely captivated before she could react.

　Her arms went limp in that instant, and even the dozen or so blood tentacles that had been extended became weak.

　Dark had just sensed something was wrong when he realized something was amiss, but before he could even process it, his sword-wielding hand swiftly spun backward, and his waist reversed accordingly—the sword, carrying the residual storm airflow, sliced ​​through Nalar's slender waist.

　Skin cleaved, muscles shattered, sword pierced bone marrow.

　Cut in half!

　……

　"puff!"

　Large spurts of blood gushed out and plummeted toward the ground.

　Countless bats swarmed forward, each carrying a drop of blood.

　The scene was extremely chaotic at one point.

　The vampire heiress, whose skin should have been pale, now had an almost sickly redness on her face.

　She was so deeply influenced by the allure that she didn't even fully break free when she was cut in half at the waist.

　But Dark Dimon remained unmoved, his face expressionless, his heart as cold as ice. Even as he turned around within her embrace, bringing his face almost touching hers, Dark did not experience any "ecstasy."
