The maid squad is too strong, what use is there for me, the Demon King?

Gray gently touched the bloody hole on his neck. As a purplish-black magical light shone, the bloody hole on his neck disappeared when he lowered his hand.

I was bitten on the neck, and it did hurt a bit, but it didn't hurt much since a little blood was sucked out.

Vampires.

Having been reborn into this Western fantasy world, Gray had long wanted to see the other species here.

We've already met the elves (Beta), and now we have the vampires (Delta). All that's missing are the demi-humans (Zeta, Eta), the beastmen, and the dragons (Bai Lin).

Let's go through the procedures.

The fourth letter of the Greek alphabet is Delta.

And right after Gray accepted the blonde, mature vampire and went through the process of naming her and making her his familia...

"We arrived too late, but we've already restored her."

"It's nothing, we can do it again."

Five men wearing dark red leather jackets rushed towards them.

These people wore wide-brimmed hats and had masks covering the lower half of their faces.

"What is this?" Gray frowned slightly.

Although the clothing used is quite different, the overall look is very similar to that of the Shadow Court, so is it a case of similar settings?

"My lord, they are vampire hunters belonging to the Church of Holy Light. I was hunted down by them, which is why I ended up in such a miserable state."

As Delta had anticipated, the two sides clashed, and Delta began to fan the flames.

So this girl only joined because she was being hunted down, right? She wants me to protect her.

That makes sense, since what vampire would repay a debt of gratitude after drinking blood?

Having quickly figured this out, Gray turned his attention to the vampire hunters.

These vampire hunters are from the Church of the Holy Light, right?

The Demon King's legacy contains records about the Church of Holy Light.

For a long time after the 10th Demon King, the Church of Holy Light was a major enemy of the demon race.

The Church of Holy Light will search for and nurture heroes by identifying their unique marks, and has also established various departments specifically for dealing with foreign races.

The main targets are demons and orcs, and vampire hunters naturally fall under the category of those who target vampires.

However, vampires are also an extremely rare race, even rarer than elves.

Many books in the human world feature human heroes as protagonists, and the Church of Holy Light is always portrayed as a symbol of justice.

Gray, as the Demon King, the adopted son of a human noble, and a former human, specifically went to compare the differences between the Demon King's legacy and the documents of the human world.

In human storybooks and historical records, vampire hunters are portrayed as virtuous and noble figures who specialize in hunting down evil vampires.

In reality, vampires feed on the blood of various creatures, but they find the blood of humanoid beings to be the sweetest and most delicious.

The vampires mentioned in the Demon King's legacy are not all vicious and indiscriminate killers.

Most vampires are neither good nor evil; they are simply a humanoid race with a somewhat unusual diet.

Occasionally there are vampires who enjoy killing, but there are also "saintly" vampires who only seek to fill their stomachs, drink only a small amount of blood, and do not kill.

I just don't know which type of delta it is.

As far as Gray was concerned, as long as she wasn't one of the most heinous criminals, it was fine.

Compared to the upright image of vampire hunters described in human books, these vampire hunters in front of him didn't look like good people at all. Gray felt that they were just street thugs.

The Church of Holy Light declined many years ago.

The decline here refers to the Church of Holy Light's reputation among the common people. For the high-ranking nobles, the Church of Holy Light has always been a tool to gather the faith of the masses.

However, there are hardly any believers in the Church of Holy Light among the common people now. The Church of Holy Light should have lost its usefulness and been abandoned by the nobles, thus becoming nothing to fear and perhaps even disappearing into obscurity.

The Church of Holy Light has lost its faith among the people, yet it has maintained a certain level of stability and has not continued to decline, but rather has remained stagnant. This is a very strange phenomenon.

While Gray was pondering, the vampire hunters had already approached, and Gray could hear their conversation with his keen hearing.

"You know what, this girl is pretty hot."

"Anyway, all we have to do is bring the body back. We can do whatever we want with the body before killing it."

"It has been said that vampires have a reproductive system similar to ours."

"If you want to enjoy this, then cheer up and seal her magic. You don't want her to run out of magic and turn into a little girl, so you won't be able to have fun, right?"

"Actually, it's not bad..."

Gray was speechless upon hearing these lewd remarks.

What's wrong with this world? Why are there so many evil people everywhere?

The cultists who slaughtered Alpha Village, the thieves who were everywhere in Bifeng Territory, the slave-hunting team that captured Beta, the creditors who took money and then reneged on their debts—one after another…

And now, even when you finally meet someone with a decent reputation, it's still like this...

Well, that's fine too. This way, Gray won't have to worry about protecting the wrong person, and he won't have any psychological burden when killing these vampire hunters.

Sensing the magical aura emanating from the five vampire hunters, Gray lost all interest.

"Beta, it's up to you now."

After saying that, Gray ignored the vampire hunters and pulled Delta aside to introduce her to the Shadow Court.

"Yes, Lord Shadow."

Beta was also decisive and didn't hesitate at all; she couldn't let these clueless people affect the sweet time she spent with her Prince Charming.

—————————————————————

Are they all resting?

Having encountered few living monsters along the way, Gray descended smoothly to the 17th floor of the Netherworld Palace, where he met the Shadow Court members who were waiting for orders.

"Lord Phantom!"

Upon hearing this, the blonde, mature woman Delta's face lit up with joy, and she immediately pounced on him, only to be held down by Gray.

Gray did not wear the black robe this time. None of the Shadow Court members present, except for Delta, had ever seen the legendary "Shadow Lord" or had only seen Gray wearing the black robe.

Is this person Lord Shadow Demon?

Considering the fact that the highest level of etiquette must be followed when meeting the Shadow Lord under the leadership of the eldest sister Alfie, and the intimate interaction between the fourth Shadow Lord Delta and Gray, the members of the Shadow Court present were momentarily unsure whether they should still perform the ceremony.

Lord Delta also said that Lord Shadow was very easygoing and approachable.

That seems to be the case at present, but the person in front of us contradicts the image of the "Supreme Ruler" in the Shadow Court's oath...

The Shadow Court members outside of Delta were a bit confused, so they simply kept quiet and carried out the orders of the two.

After all, the more you say, the more mistakes you make; if you don't say anything, you won't make mistakes.

This was exactly what Delta wanted.

Since being sent to develop the Shadow Court, I have had very few opportunities to meet Lord Shadow.

Delta was perfectly content that his subordinates were sensible and didn't disturb their time together.
