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

281 The Dangerous Farther Lands

“Grawr!”

One of the gray wolves barked angrily at me, showing me his sharp teeth. Meanwhile the second Gray Wolf stood behind him, looking at me angrily. I was ready to take their lives swiftly, but I quickly changed my mind.

That overly fat wolf was pregnant, it was a female. If I killed her, wouldn’t I be ruining the ecosystem even more? If she got pups waiting to be born… It would be better to leave her as she is. They were hunting rabbits to eat because they were quite hungry. The male… looks very pale.

“My lord, I’ve got the rabbits!” Eleanora said, reaching my side while carrying the struggling creatures in her Blood Thread Net. “Shall we dispose of them? What are you waiting for?”

“Well, they have yet to attack me. Those two are most likely a pair. The female is pregnant too… I cannot bring myself to kill her, that would only make the gray wolves even rarer. As a source of leather, meat, and spirit orbs, if I make their population go down even more by killing her, I would be negatively affecting the village, sadly.”

“Oh, I see… Should we let them go then? They seem reluctant despite my Aura being clear enough to tell them we are stronger than them…” Sighed Eleanora..

“Hmm…”

I opened my Inventory Bag, which had a small pocket space inside and quickly took out a large piece of purified demon meat, I had been using to make sandwiches, but it is twice as big as a horned rabbit, so this should be enough to fill their stomachs.

“Here.”

I threw the large piece of meat as it rolled over the ground. The two wolves seemed surprised over the enticing smell, perhaps nobody had ever given them food before. The male slowly and curiously sniffed the meat, grabbed it with his mouth and quickly ran away with the female afterwards.

I noticed that the female suddenly stopped walking for a bit, looking at my eyes.

And then she ran away with the male again.

“Well, that was disappointing, I thought they would kneel before you and ask to become your pets…” She sighed. Eleanora might be acting more cocky now, but she still held me in high respect.

“Expecting that of wild animals is not right, Eleanora. They’re not tamed.” I said. I decided to quickly end the horned rabbits, who were all males, by ripping their little souls out of their bodies through the Tier 2 Soul Attribute Spell [Soul Hand]. As its name implies, it allows me to create a hand made out of my soul which can be used to touch other souls.

I didn’t destroyed the little souls, and simply let them go after killing the rabbits. Like this, I can practice this Spell, which will be the one that will allow me (hopefully) to drag out the souls of my subordinates from within my Origin Core. But first I have to practice until I feel confident about doing such a thing.

[Calculating EXP earned…]

[You earned 350 EXP]

350 EXP for five horned rabbits… Not bad. Each rabbit gives 50 EXP plus the +40% bonus from hard worker makes it 70 per Rabbit, 70 x 5 = 350. And with this, we also have five new Spirit Orbs to use right away. With that, I could immediately get a new Summon, but I will wait until we get back home.

For the next hour, we scouted the forest third layer with Huginn, finding some stray horned rabbits here and there. I selectively killed only the males, while leaving small young ones and females. This way they can keep reproducing as quickly as possible.

Without realizing it, we reached the outskirts of the forest, and what greeted us was a beautiful grassland up to the eye could see. The beautiful clear blue sky and the bright sun were almost like a beautiful painting.

“So these are the Grassy Plains…” Eleanora said. “It is such a beautiful place.”

“Yeah, despite being dangerous, being here really soothes the heart.” I said, admiring the surroundings.

…And then, we saw it.

It was so big that it easily blocked the sun from the sky as it flew.

Its enormous scale-covered wings shone bright red, and his eyes, green in color, locked themselves on Huginn flying over the grassy plains.

“GROOOAR!”

An enormous Wyvern flew towards Huginn, faster than the crow himself, and catching him in seconds with his gigantic claws. The monster’s aura was so potent that even I had to admit it sent chills down my spine.

“CRAAA…!”

CRASH!

With a single snap of his jaws, the Wyvern crushed Huginn until it exploded into black smoke and dissipated.

“Grrrr…?”

The wyvern felt confused looking around, the dark smoke was numbing his vision. However, he seemed to be looking for us, the two little ants that wandered outside of the safe forest.

“We have to get out of here, this thing… it is way too strong!” Eleanora, quickly dragged me by my robes into the forest, before the giant wyvern could notice us. We ran as fast as possible, without looking back, until we found ourselves in the forest first layer.

We rested over the floor, gasping for air. That thing… it was strong. At least D Rank- no, C Rank! There is no way I can beat that, even with everything I got. The Demon General was already incredibly tough even when everybody attacked that thing at once, and even when it was already weakened.

How strong would a monster such as a Wyvern be then? Even with those scales that could easily block most magic and weapons… that fiery breath, wings that allow it to always fly and have advantage in any battle… It was truly not something that can be defeated with anything I have.

I simply… can’t find any solution to it other than run away and not fight it.

“That thing… It was amazing. I never thought a mere wyvern would scare me so much, hahaha! Eleanora, I think this world is really strange! These monsters are way stronger than they should really be… It is as if this game had a difficulty setting and it was set to Hell! Did this bastard of Lucifer knew this and this is why he threw me here? Haha…”

“Laughing after going through a situation where you could had died… Truly fitting of my lord.” Laughed Elenora.

“I’m going to kill … that damn wyvern one day” I said, while slowly walking back home with the rabbits we got.
