Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

Chapter 68 This Is Merely A Scratch



-----

The two other Imps quickly noticed our presences and our locations, as they glared at their dead comrade, grabbed their weapons, and rushed towards us.

I had already run out of stones to throw, so I quickly decided to run around in circles through the forest, while Eleanora had sneaked around, jumping over the tree branches, and lurking behind the Imps while using Shadow Sneak Skill, which allowed her to merge with the shadows and become even more stealthy.

"Graakuhah! Grakuh! (Bastard! Kill the bastard!)"

"Grakegagha! (I'll eat a little children's tender meat tonight!)"

The two spoke rather grossly and were enraged beyond belief. Although they were malicious, unlike most people believed, Demons are resentful and form strong bonds as companions. Usually a trio of Imps would be siblings, and not just completely unrelated.

And unlike most people believe of barbarians, they grow stronger by helping one another, usually siblings have a strong bond and protect each other backs. Killing each other dumbly like some goblin species do when they get angry at one another is not common within demon societies and tribes, protecting their young or their siblings is a valuable lesson they teach to one another.

This is how they can thrive and survive even in the harsh environments of the desertic wastelands within the Dimension of Hell.

And because of this, it is to be expected that they would react like this.

Yes, come closer, follow me, you fools.

FLASH!

Suddenly one of them launched the javelin they were holding.

I quickly jumped to my left side to evade it, only for the other to intercept me at a fast speed, boosting its speed through the usage of Demonic Energy.

CLASH!

It used its own spear, trying to pierce my chest. It didn't used a normal piercing attack, as it enhanced the spear with demonic energy and used what's called Demon Weapon Technique.

"Graaaaa!"

I intercepted it with my spear, as I used a technique of my own.

Dragoon Spear Technique: Impact Attack!

CLAAASH!

Impact Attack is a simple technique, by gathering Qi into the tip of the spear, it generates an impact shockwave that might blow away a target or the weapon reaching up to me.

The powerful shockwave easily impacted the Imp's own spear technique. My technique was obviously superior to that of a mere infant like this one.

The Imp realized the superiority of my attack, as the shockwave generated by the spear's attack blew it away, throwing it off balance and making it fall to the ground.

I tried to use this opportunity to attack, but the second Imp that had thrown its javelin at me had quickly took it once more and threw it again towards my direction.

I had to quickly evade the deadly attack, moving back a few meters.

CLASH!

The javelin it threw got stuck into the tree near me, as I grabbed it as a secondary weapon and imbued it with Qi. As they say, finders keepers.

I used Throwing Technique, which could be used with any object I threw, and by being enhanced by the Skill's power, the javelin flew towards the Imp that had fallen off the ground.

FLAAAASH!

"Gryagu?!"

CLASH!

The Imp attempted to evade but the Spear pierced its left shoulder, getting stuck in the floor.

"Gryyyaaaaa!"

It cried in pain as its sibling that had originally thrown the javelin at my gritted its sharp teeth and angrily glared at me.

"Graaaaooo!"

It roared and leaped over me, biting my hand as I desperately tried to move it away from me, but its sharp fangs made for a great way to hook itself into my flesh. The pain was great, I gritted my teeth and quickly decided to kill it with my spear, as I had planned to save this one for later, but I suppose the one I got stuck into the ground would do!

Dragoon Spear Technique: Head Splitting Attack!

CLAAAASH!

Pointing my father's spear at the angered Imp grabbing my hand with its fangs, I pierced its skull cleanly. The spear went through its brains and splattered them off from the hole I left behind.

"Gryayaargghh…!"

It finally let go of my hand as it gave a last scream of agony before dying.

[You gained 400 EXP]

I looked at my hand as I noticed the necrosis already beginning, damn it. I hadn't lowered my guard, I had my guard high, in fact, but there's not much I can do myself.

If I had my guard low, it could had perfectly managed to bite my neck and kill me, but I had to sacrifice my hand.

The fingers seem to be broken, at least three of them.

Eleanora quickly jumped over the Imp attempting to take down the javelin piercing its shoulder and she mercilessly sliced its limbs with her sharp claws imbued with hardened blood.

SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!

"Gryyyyaaaaaeeehh…!"

Leaving it in the ground with his limbs gone, Eleanora flew to my side once more to assist me.

"My lord!" she cried.

"Eleanora, quickly extract the blood with necrosis, I will purify the wound…" I said.

I took out a knife and quickly and mercilessly cut down my own flesh, it was painful, but I had gone through greater pains in my previous life to falter against this.

"Okay!"

She quickly began to work, cleaning my wound and taking away the necrosis in the blood. After that, I conjured Light and Life spells and purified the wound.

She quickly sealed it as I used fire magic to cauterize the open wound, and then it was finally done.

The broken bones should slowly regenerate over time as I used "Bone Reinforcement" and "Metabolism Enhancement" over them, the cracks were not too big either, and I could move the fingers but it was painful.

"Are you feeling okay?" she asked.

"I am, don't worry. This is merely a scratch." I said.

"You were a bit reckless there… Ugh, I should have helped!" she cried.
