68 The Lord of the Rings! (1/2)

”The Night King, the Founder?

Huh. Oliver has a nose for vampires, I'm sure of it.

There are those who call themselves Demon Lords.

It is a title given by the weakest and most numerous humans in this world to the one who rules over the natural enemies of humans.

By definition, Demon Lords come in many varieties. Sometimes it is a wise beast, sometimes a dragon. Sometimes they are even humans.

Most Hexenbiests live in a world of the weak and the strong. If you have the power, it's not difficult to subdue such beings that are hostile to humans.

The Lord that Monica is prostrating herself to, Rainer, is also a being that has created a great power by force alone and has come to be called the Demon Lord.

His hoarse voice had a power that naturally made her feel as if she were about to shrink.

The strong sense of oppression that she felt even when she was prostrate and not looking at him was probably due to the fact that Monica's instincts were in awe of his existence.

Rumor has it that she even has the blood of a dragon in her veins, the strongest and most famous beast in the world.

It's a good idea to take a look at the website and see if you can find anything that might help you.

I'm not sure what to make of this.

Vampires are the very terror of werewolves. I'm not sure what to make of this.

Vampires can turn those who have sucked their blood into their mates, but the ability is not completely inherited.

The curse gets weaker and weaker. Basically, the family members are less capable than their master. The third rank means that it spans three generations from its ancestor, the zero rank.

However, the object that changed Oliver was a family member of a family member of the King of Beasts. The power of the third rank is immeasurable when its source is the famous King of Beasts.

I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one.

”So, is this man ...... strong?

You'll be able to find a lot more than just a few vampires. It seems to be a little ...... different, but I don't think it's a good idea to antagonize him now. If you can get them to join you, you will be able to conquer Lonburg.

They have many weaknesses.

”Their weaknesses are the reverse of the strength of the ...... curse. They are an abomination, a violation of the laws of life. You know Oliver's power, don't you?

At Monica's question, Rainer laughed for the first time. His low voice echoed quietly in the dimly lit castle.

He can't die even if you tear him to pieces. I'll change my claws if I have to.

Vampires - the strength of the undead. The greatest advantage they have over other creatures is their regenerative powers.

They're already dead. It's no small feat to kill them by force. Oliver has inherited only part of that.

But what happens when you're dealing with a true vampire who's not only regenerative but also powerful and has many other abilities?

A hot exhalation caressed Monica's head.

”Stronger men are welcome. But-- you know the rules of my army. I understand your intentions, but I will not bend them, no matter who the Night King is. My men will not be satisfied with that. Neither will I.

”...... as you wish.

The king's will must be obeyed.

But how will that work against vampires, where strength is supreme and the law of the jungle is the law of the weak?

Monica Wurtzbier couldn't help but feel uneasy.

§ § § §

Vampires don't sleep. It's possible or impossible, but not necessary.

In fact, I was awake the whole time Senri was carrying me in the carrying case. Perhaps if I continue to operate in a state of insomnia, I will reach my limit, but so far I have not felt it.

I had no intention of sleeping in enemy territory. Of course, I wasn't going to slip out on the first day.

I closed my eyes and waited patiently for Monica to come home.

Monica's house was located near the castle. Unlike most of the houses down there, which were simple tent-like structures, this was a proper brick house. The rooms were divided into a bedroom and a living room, and although there were no windowpanes, if the door was closed tightly, sunlight would not enter the room.

It's not as simple as an inn in town, but it's not inconvenient.

Perhaps there is a hierarchy in this demon king's army. The closer we got to the castle, the more magnificent the buildings became, and the more artifacts there were.

According to this trend, Monica is at the top of the hierarchy.

The sun was setting again. As I closed my eyes and waited, I could smell Monica's scent approaching the house.

The sound of the door opening. A presence enters the house.

Monica crawled into bed without hesitation, came close to me with her eyes closed and did not move, sat still for a while, and then quietly placed the object she had brought on the floor.

It didn't seem to want to attack me. I knew it was unlikely, because if he wanted to kill me, he would have attacked me in the morning, but I was a little relieved.

I rub my eyes and get up.

”Are you awake, Mr. End?

”Yes. Not bad at all.

It would have been perfect if I could have gotten some of Senri's blood in my sleep. Monica pointed to the items she had brought and said in a clerical tone.

I've prepared some simple clothes for you. I don't know the size of the armor, so--

”Oh, that's fine. I'm not picky about what I wear, and my body is strong. I'll take it off when I transform anyway.

I'm starting to get used to it since I was completely naked when I was a dog, but I'm afraid I'll lose something important as a person.

The clothes prepared for her were comfortable and good quality. There was also underwear. When I put on a well-fitting black shirt and pants, I finally felt like a human again.

A simple question arose and I asked Monica.

I asked Monica a simple question: ”...... Does anyone wear clothes in this army?
