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

　He inadvertently revealed a bit of his excellence, which could also be described as "his accumulated knowledge and skills finally blossoming."

　Look!

　How perfectly suited to his status!

　But before he could act, he suffered what happened tonight.

　The swarm of golems gave him the illusion of being "surrounded and intercepted," as if someone was deliberately forcing him into a corner.

　He realized this as he was being placed in a jar.

　So it was initially hidden very well.

　Even Professor Cazell was completely unaware of his presence.

　Unfortunately, when the time came, he couldn't hide it anymore.

　The moment Vlad summoned the Blood Mother Bat, he sensed that he was very likely to be exposed.

　His hunch was correct.

　But the result seemed to be better than he had imagined.

　Vlad couldn't help but sneer as he watched the blond boy stroll out from the center of the demon statues.

　"So that's how it is. You planned all of this." That was me.

　Dak tucked his hands into his sleeves and responded very calmly.

　All the golems stopped moving after he appeared.

　While Vlad smiled, his eyes remained sinister.

　Shen.

　He initially thought it was a scheme orchestrated by professors from St. Mary's College.

　Those unfathomable professors were what he feared most.

　But if the one who orchestrated this wasn't the professor, but the blond boy before him, he would still be somewhat wary, but not absolutely so.

　see.

　Do you think I'm the same person I was in the past?

　Vlad opened his mouth and spoke in a low voice, using Robert's voice.

　Dark paused for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, "No way, you don't think I'm still the same person I was in the past, do you?"

　The two sides looked at each other.

　Vlad suddenly burst into laughter and abruptly took a step back.

　The dozen or so Blood Bats that were born from the self-destruction of the Blood Mother Bat quickly gathered together, each baring its sharp fangs, and pounced on it.

　Dark glanced at the Blood Bats and judged that they were likely only Star-level magical spirits.

　Therefore, with a flick of his finger, the magic card he had hidden in his hand glowed rapidly.

　"Hawkwrestler!"

　"Hacha!"

　The wrestler who rushed to the scene immediately displayed a boiling fighting spirit.

　Its eyes narrowed, and it pounced on the [blood bats].

　"Feather Dance!"

　With Dak's command.

　The Wrestling Hawkman spins rapidly in the air around his midline, countless feathers bursting forth from his wings.

　They charged at those vicious bats!

　Several bats were pierced by feathers and exploded instantly, leaving only drops of blood.

　dripping.

　That was Robert's blood.

　Several other bats suddenly transformed into light, merging with the blood-red light shooting from Vlad's direction to form...

　A terrifying summoning circle exuding a bloody aura!

　"Summoning of Sacrifice!"

　Dac's pupils constricted.

　Vlad has actually learned the art of sacrificial summoning!

　His magic cards are cāo

　Was it made by Robert?

　In a brief moment of thought -

　The ferocious-looking blood beast surged forth from the sacrificial summoning circle!

　The blood beast was about two meters tall, its entire body as red as blood.

　Flowing, its overall shape resembles a tiger or leopard, with long hairs growing from each of its shoulders.

　With tentacles that have mouthparts, its long tail wavers through the air like a giant snake.

　Judging from the number of bats sacrificed, this blood beast is at least a five-star beast!

　Five-star Magical Spirit!

　Even at this point, Dark hadn't managed to forge even half a creature. How did Vlad, with Robert's body, manage to do so?

　Dak was surprised.

　But in reality, he wasn't panicked.

　Just as the blood beast pounced, a white shadow leaped down from the sky. After landing, it took a few steps and then suddenly jumped up. With a sharp meow, a cat's claw tore apart the blood beast's face and twisted off one of its tentacles!

　"Read the full text for free right now!"

　The blood beast needed time to let out a scream.

　Foul-smelling blood gushed from its wound

　However, it splashed onto Gatomon.

　The somewhat germaphobic Gatomon suddenly frowned and glared fiercely at the screaming Blood Beast!

　As Gatomon's eyes widened, the light emanating from its amber cat-like eyes spun like a crimson wheel, shooting into its bloodstream.

　The eyes of a beast.

　The blood beast, barely summoned and before it could even flick its tail, experienced dizziness in its eyes, its vision sinking under the influence of the [Cat's Eye].

　"It's descended into utter chaos!" If that's all there is to it...

　Dark looked at Vlad, somewhat curious, why he wasn't cooperating with the blood beasts in their fierce attack.

　Even if he's just parasitizing Robert, now that he's already done it...

　Robert's body couldn't possibly be...

　It's probably because of insufficient magic power.

　Robert's magical potential is indeed not high.

　That's probably far from enough to support Vlad in unleashing the same crimson demonic light as in the secret passage before.

　Without his magical abilities, Vlad the vampire, with his physical prowess comparable to Robert's, was simply unable to cause any trouble.

　But if you don't use magic, and don't engage in close combat...

　If we're talking about magic techniques alone, this place is the real expert!

　But Vlad's laughter didn't stop; after sacrificing to summon the Blood Beast, he had already drawn the third card from a hidden compartment in his card pack.

　Zhang Magic Card!

　This is the culmination of his efforts over the past month.

　"The gathered blood will eventually become a crimson sea that gives birth to life. O king of the night shrouded in darkness, the ritual calls you to awaken, vampire count!"

　He suddenly slashed his left hand, letting the blood...

　As the rain dripped down, his right hand held aloft a magic card, his expression gradually turning crazed.

　The blood beast, which had fallen into a state of chaos, exploded during his incantation.

　Bright red blood

　It flows across the land.

　Blood dripping from bats

　Fusion

　Reunited within the ancient castle.

　Using fresh blood as a catalyst.

　The arcane card, crafted with the soul of the vampire Vlad at its core, shone brightly in the air!

　The vampire that split into countless clones, allowing Vlad to be reborn in the secret passage.

　The eight-star magic spirit that served as the hidden boss of the eighth floor during the Halloween event.

　The vampire count has finally returned to the world at this very moment!

　This is the source of Vlad's confidence!

　Dark looked at the vampire count summoned by Vlad, who bore a resemblance to the [Vampire Beast], and immediately recalled...

　The scene depicted a Halloween event.

　Only at this moment did he suddenly have a guess that was close to the truth about the origin of the vampire Vlad.

　Therefore, he couldn't help but ask: 'Vlad, is this the reason you were able to be reborn?'

　After successfully summoning the vampire count, Vlad's arrogance and confidence returned to his face.

　He looked at Dark without any hurry and sneered, "How can human beings with their shallow intelligence possibly understand the truth of the matter?"

　Dark: "You mean you don't know either?"

　A flicker of anger flashed in Vlad's eyes: "You mongrel, prepare to die!"

　"Blood is power!"

　The vampire count roared in response.

　Its body is made of blood

　The condensed crimson cloak moved without wind, causing the entire body to float into the air.

　Boiling blood

　It surged forth from its outstretched hands, rushing continuously towards its feet and head, gradually...

　Two churning seas of blood coalesced!

　Numerous ferocious and terrifying blood beasts emerged from the churning sea of ​​blood, tearing at each other, roaring and howling.

　Che Castle.

　Dark had seen this at a Halloween event.

　The vampire count in front of you is a "summoner" type character whose main fighting method is to summon endless blood beasts from the sea of ​​blood!

　Aside from its ability to resurrect infinitely through the Blood Sea, it has almost never demonstrated offensive or defensive capabilities comparable to an eight-star character.

　It may be that it doesn't have that feature.

　It's also possible that it wasn't shown.

　After all, it's a one-time summon event boss, so it's possible that its strength is limited by shackles.

　However, the current vampire count is far inferior to the hidden boss in terms of the scale of the sea of ​​blood.

　This is probably because there is no "blood altar" under its feet.
