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

　The little devil slowly flew to the cave entrance, pretending to be unresponsive as it stared at Victor and Robert inside the cramped room, inwardly ranting and raving.

　Such an iconic familiar is unique in the entire Saint Marian.

　Witt and Robert realized almost immediately who the person on the other end was!

　"We can escape through the cave!"

　"If Dark were here..."

　Different thoughts surfaced in a jumble.

　Dark Deemon appeared in their field of vision, right behind Impmon.

　"Hi?"

　……

　Who would have thought that the hero's secret chamber and the Valkyrie's secret chamber are actually only separated by a "wall"?

　Judging from its scale, Brave Bright likely only scraped a small portion from the leftovers of Valkyrie...

　Maybe he just jumped on the bandwagon and did a perfunctory job so that when he talks to someone, he can say, "Hey, you hid it too? I hid it too."

　Dark cautiously peered over there: "You guys don't look great?"

　Witt and Robert looked troubled.

　Before they could say anything more, Vlad, who had been running towards Betty, suddenly appeared at the entrance to the small secret room.

　His body was covered in scars, and the color difference between his old and new skin made his face look like it was made of rags.

　Vlad's gaze was sharp, and the newly appeared human child opposite him gave him a feeling that was hard to describe.

　It was a kind of feeling that only high-ranking demons could detect, a feeling that made people unable to control themselves.

　So much so that after smelling Dak's scent, he even suppressed his humiliation and put the matter of punishing Betty second!

　But he couldn't quite put his finger on what that feeling was.

　In short, it was very bland and strange.

　It made him uneasy.

　……

　Vittor and Robert were terrified by Vlad's sudden appearance nearby and couldn't help but move toward Dark.

　Vlad didn't react to their behavior at all!

　Dark hesitated and asked, "Vampires?"

　Because it really didn't look like cosplay, Dark couldn't help but tense up.

　……

　Perhaps he thought Vlad would be detrimental to Witt and Robert.

　Unaware that she had just narrowly escaped, Betty launched a sneak attack to buy them a chance to escape!

　"Skunk bomb!"

　A brown bullet rolled to Vlad's feet and suddenly exploded!

　The smoke from the bullet spread instantly, releasing a deadly stench.

　This skill, released by a mere two-star magical spirit, produced an unexpected effect.

　Vlad screamed in agony through the smoke.

　At the crucial moment, Witt mustered his last bit of strength and dragged his limp legs toward the giant hole.

　Robert was a step behind, but he caught up quickly, grabbed his arm, and sprinted away!

　The distance of the cramped room was instantly traversed.

　Dark immediately stepped aside to give way, allowing the two to cross the giant hole and escape.

　"vampire?"

　"Dark asked again."

　"vampire!"

　Robert responded hastily.

　The last trace of sleepiness in Dak's eyes vanished abruptly.

　At this point, it's pointless to ponder why a vampire would appear in the secret passage.

　Since even the Minotaur can appear out of thin air, one more vampire is no big deal.

　Ready to fight!

　……

Chapter 215 The Demon God's Paradise (3k)

　Seeing that Witt and Robert had escaped behind him, Dark immediately asked, "Rank, strength, ability?"

　It took Witt half a second to react before he hurriedly said, "Third tier, very strong, can fire magic light cannons, and regenerates at high speed!"

　Dark's eyelids twitched: "The third tier means at least seven stars. Having ranged skills means it's not a blank slate. And it can regenerate at high speed... Could it be a legitimate high-ranking demon?"

　Vampires may not be as powerful as dragons of the same level on paper. But in actual combat, they are often more difficult to deal with than dragons, as they are more agile and unpredictable.

　Simply put, the "rolling" tactic is unlikely to be effective!

　"I've chosen you, Pot Pot!"

　In short, the universal starting point is the "pot"!

　Although the pot wasn't large, it still managed to look quite imposing blocking the hole.

　When all else fails, its silhouette always brings a sense of reassurance.

　Dark quickly said, "There's only one way out from here; going straight out leads to the cave entrance. But this dragon's lair is in a basin, and you'll need to climb to get up there."

　"Dragon's lair?"

　Robert's voice suddenly changed.

　But Dak was already completely absorbed.

　The opportunity for vampires to be disrupted by "skunk bullets" is extremely precious.

　Moreover, it is obvious that there are other people outside that secret room.

　Although I don't know who it is, it seems much more reliable than Robert.

　In short, let's try to buy as much time as possible!

　After the cooldown ended, Dark quickly summoned the second magical spirit – "Ditto"!

　He had a premonition that Ditto's transformation ability would become the core of this battle.

　However, Ditto has never transformed into a Tier 3 Magical Spirit before. Therefore, betting everything on Ditto is not a particularly reliable strategy.

　Therefore, after summoning Ditto, he took Claire's Christmas present - "Paradise" into his hands!

　……

　Dark's intentions are very clear.

　Witt was shocked to realize that after learning the basic information about the vampires, Dark was not thinking about how to escape, but instead immediately preparing for battle!

　Was it because a seven-star vampire was not enough to make him back down?

　Judging from Dark's performance in the in-class competition, although he is good, he shouldn't be at that level.

　Unless he makes a huge improvement in the short period of time following the in-class competition!

　Think about this.

　While Witt felt a slight sense of relief, he also felt immense pressure.

　He clenched his fist tightly, once again taking his last resort—"Forbidden Love"—into his hands.

　Despite knowing that "Forbidden Love" wouldn't be very effective against highly intelligent life forms other than magical spirits, especially against powerful high-ranking demons.

　But if he could be of even the slightest use to the vampire at a crucial moment, he could feel a little more at ease.

　……

　And at this moment.

　Betty and Scott, who were outside the secret room, were unaware that the two mirror rooms had been connected.

　They were surprised by the vampire's sudden actions, but dared not provoke him too much.

　Vlad's screams from the "skunk bomb" terrified the two men.

　Scott had already slipped around the corner, peeking out half his head with trepidation.

　Betty was also slowly backing away, ready to escape at any moment.

　……

　Vampires have a sense of smell that is just as keen as werewolves', and the skunk bullet nearly destroyed Vlad's sense of smell.

　He screamed as he dispersed the smoke, gasping for fresh air, looking increasingly disheveled.

　This made him turn his attention back to Betty.

　"Roar!"

　Vlad bared his teeth and roared.

　With a sudden swing of its claws at Betty, a bloody claw flew out and viciously grabbed at her.

　Betty's heart tightened, and she turned and ran away.

　A sudden explosion rang out in the air.

　The invisible barrier was torn apart by the blood claws, but it was finally stopped.

　Betty took the opportunity to slip around the corner and escape Vlad's sight.

　She and Scott each stood on one side, never daring to show their faces again.

　The two looked tense, fearing that Vlad would come after them.

　But after swinging that claw, the vampire ignored them completely.

　In the blink of an eye, the vampire had already rushed into the secret room!

　Betty instinctively took a step, but then hesitated.

　What can we do if we rush back now?

　I can't do anything!

　After the Moon Goddess incident, the members of the Order had actually matured quite a bit.

　Their personality flaws may not have changed yet, but their level of thinking has changed.

　Betty and Scott exchanged a glance and immediately understood each other's meaning: It's hopeless!

　From their perspective, Witt and Robert were beyond saving.

　If they don't escape, they will also die at the hands of vampires!

　We have to escape!

　The two reached an agreement instantly.

　then.

　The vampire, howling as it charged into the secret chamber, was blasted out at an even faster speed!

　"BOOM!"

　Under the incomprehensible gazes of Betty and Scott.

　Vlad, who had almost shrunk to the shape of a pancake, slid down the wall.
