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

532 Attacking The Cult Members



—–

Their black clothes were enchanted with the shadow element, and were also drenched in demon blood, cursed equipment. Alongside that, their equipment was enchanted with runes that enhanced their stealth and camouflage, quite high-quality ones. Lastly, they held daggers coated on demon venom, and had all sorts of abilities and magic, alongside spiritual power in par with Rank 2 Spirit Masters.

And above all, they had red marks on their hands, showing the sign of a fly made of red blood color, their hands were glowing with maliciousness. I can tell they’re hired spies and assassins by the Beelzebub’s Cult, just by seeing that fly-like mark.

“For now, spy them and listen to whatever they’re talking about.”

I told the two to just spy them for now. The two spirits quickly melded into the shadows of the group of spies, as they heard them talking while I pretended everything was fine with Erika and her mother.

“Cattalina’s there, she really did meet with her daughter…” A tall man said.

“Wasn’t that girl dead?” Wondered a smaller woman.

“She should had died years ago after she drank the Demon Curse Poison. How come she’s back alive? I guess the reports we got some time ago about her suddenly reviving were not wrong…” Sighed a younger male.

“Can we take her down as we were told?” Wondered the fourth, another woman, taller than the first to speak.

“Yes, it should be possible, her power doesn’t seem so strong yet. She had yet to fully awaken her abilities. I was told she is a Half-Dryad. And from what little that priest that infiltrated the church in that village told us, she used to be something like a golem made of wood, a living doll.” The leader of the group spoke the tall and muscular man.

“Heh, what sort of sick father would make their own daughter into a golem? Nobles are really fucked in the head.” Laughed the other male.

“He should had left her die… But now, it seems he had reformed her a new living body made of Dryad materials, such an ancient Spirit Race’s materials are of indescribable value. If we can get ahold of her body, we’ll make a lot of funds…” Laughed the younger girl.

“The problem is capturing her… And Cattalina is with her, that woman’s illusions are powerful. And she has also conquered a few of the demon tower’s floors, her level and stats must be high. We cannot really beat her even if we fight together against her.” Sighed the tallest woman.

“It’s not like we are without tricks, if she can’t detect us from here, it means our gear works properly. We simply need to make an opportunity…” The leader said, suddenly grabbing a red-colored stone from his hand.

“That’s…!” Hendrick was surprised. “Oh, a Demon Keystone! What a wonderful material! I want it!”

“Hold on Hendrick, don’t do anything rash yet.” I told him.

“Y-Yes, I wasn’t going to do anything… yet.” He answered.

“You two, once they depart, make a distraction by summoning the sealed demons in your Demon Summoning Stones. When things are in chaos, I’ll go with a helper, and we’ll use the Demon Keystone to summon a Demon Warp Gate. As long as we can catch in her in that, we’ll teleport her away and kill her away from her mother’s eyes.” Laughed the leader.

“If things go wrong then…” The woman said.

“As long as we can kill her, we’ll aid at the cult’s future prospects. Don’t fear if you need to sacrifice your lives, the explosions our marks can provoke can easily level this entire place, that girl would surely die if two of us explode in front of her.” The leader affirmed the plan.

So these bastards not only had a rather macabre plan, but they were even planning to sacrifice their lives just to kill Erika. But why do they want to kill her so badly?

“What about the kids with her?” Asked the smaller woman.

“Those doesn’t really matter. They’re weak. The High Rank Demons we have in our Summon Stones should be able to deal with them. All our spirits are support-type, so we can’t send them to do the job for us, but they’re surely effective at hiding us. The Spirit Changing Ritual truly made our useless spirits into something useful…” The leader said.

Spirit Changing Ritual… so the cultist change their spirits into Demon Spirits through such a ritual, huh? Erdrich’s mother and the Necromancer had their spirits and bodies modified this way as well. I can tell they’re not only confident by their base strength, these four cultists can probably transform into Half-Demons themselves to enchant their strength.

“Hey, can we kill the boy with her too? I want that little Summoner gone…” Giggled the small woman.

“There’s no specific orders for him, but I’ve heard we can take him down once they go into a dungeon, if things go accordingly and we are still alive. If not, others will just take our place.”

They’re pretty foolish to think they can do so much in a city filled with strong people. But certainly, this area is less populated, so they’ll take some time to get here. The hero could easily kill them all in one blow. But if their mission is a suicidal one from the beginning, it does makes sense if they think they have a chance.

Sadly, for them, there won’t be any chances to begin with.

“With pleasure, my lord!”

“Alright!”

“I will.”

I gave a telepathic command to my two spirits, the two immediately obeyed my orders.

FWOOOMMM…!

Suddenly, the sound of shadows materializing and emerging behind the four cultists echoed. Eleanora, Hendrick, and Saphira’s presences emerged, their red eyes glowing eerily as their shadows suddenly engulfed them slowly.

“What?!”

“Enemy attack?!”

“H-How?!”

“Nnnggh..! T-This is Shadow Trap and Shadow Sneak?!”

Hendrick’s presence emerged from within the shadows, stretching his long and large arms, greeting them by taking off his hat like a gentleman.

“It is a pleasure to meet you all, my dear guests. Let the show begin!”
