The arm, which should have been out of control, seemed to come alive, rapidly growing flesh and blood.
"Hiss... That's really scary."
Her expression contorted with pain, Fran glared at the king, revealing her exceptionally sharp fangs.
Looking at the other side with apprehension, even though he had regained the strength of an Awakened, the situation had become even more unfavorable.
Damn monster...
It's a legend?!
How can we fight like this!
!
The Skeleton King opposite, after seeing the changes in Fran, seemed to realize something and did not step forward.
He stood there, watching with eyes burning with fire, until Fran was about to have her arm reattached, before he slowly spoke:
"You're a monster."
? ? ?
Fran quickly clutched her rapidly growing, severed arm, her face twitching as she spoke to a king who had become a skeleton:
"Hey! Before calling others monsters, take a look at yourself first!"
You're just a pile of bones, how dare you call vampires monsters!
Have you no shame?
Upon hearing this, the Skeleton King remained unmoved, and after a moment of silence, continued as before...
He slowly began to take steps.
winter!
...
...
As the night deepened, the banquet at the Duke's villa continued, with nearly a hundred contestants raising their glasses in toasts.
The more people there are, the safer they are.
Whether facing the dead or unexpected betrayals.
Given the current situation, even if those who initially spearheaded the alliance had ulterior motives, they are no match for dozens of participants.
As a result, the banquet became more harmonious and actually resembled a normal banquet.
After several days of hunger and torment, the contestants enjoyed a brief moment of peace.
"I am very confident that the king has been brought under control!"
Beside Charles, a hunched old man, barely 1.6 meters tall, rubbed his hands together and said confidently in a loud voice:
"My prepared medicine is absolutely effective; it will work immediately even for the slightest scratch!"
"The guys we sent out are all very capable; they wouldn't fail against ordinary people!"
"Don't worry! As long as we control the king, we will be able to find those tarot cards quickly."
After he finished speaking, he took a wine glass from the side and raised it high, but no one paid any attention to him.
Ding ding.
Charles tapped his cup with a spoon, then walked smilingly to the center of the group and took over the conversation:
"Besides, this villa is absolutely safe. As long as we stay here tonight, we can continue our plan tomorrow."
After a night of running, the contestants had figured out some of the tricks and understood that as long as they didn't do anything outrageous, they wouldn't provoke the spirits.
“If we don’t go out and don’t disturb the spirits of the dead, then it’s fine if we really have a banquet all night long… if you’re not sleepy.”
Hahaha……
The contestants laughed; they would revert to being Awakened at night, which would actually be interesting if they could fall asleep.
Just as everyone raised their glasses, preparing to continue enjoying the banquet in the night, Charles keenly sensed something was amiss.
"Andrew? Huh? Where did that guy go?"
Charles looked around, searching for that elegant man who gave him a special feeling.
"Maybe he's afraid I'll sneak away? Let's ignore him, we don't need him anymore."
The old man, who had just been ignored, coughed unhappily and said:
"Running around at night is suicidal; just ignore it."
Let's raise a glass! To the stars!
This time, Charles did not stop them and raised his glass with them.
"For victory!"
"For humanity!"
"Hahaha……"
While the contestants were enjoying the banquet, in the basement of the villa, the corpses that had been carelessly discarded and filled the entire basement stirred.
Card.
At that moment, the lock on the basement door, which had been locked, was gently opened.
"Go."
"Go and take revenge."
...
...
winter!
"cough!"
Like a corpse, Fran was easily smashed away and fell heavily to the ground, never to rise again.
With countless fractures in her body, she could no longer stand up.
"Cough cough... You really are a monster."
Regeneration has failed to keep up, and consciousness has begun to gradually sink into darkness.
I originally wanted to escape, but I couldn't escape at all.
That's terrifying.
The skeletal king continued forward as always, neither hurried nor slow.
He said:
“Nameless monster, I acknowledge your will.”
"The actions you have taken are worthy of being called those of a warrior."
He looked down at the assassin who was about to faint at his feet and raised the greatsword with both hands.
Blue flames burned fiercely on the blade!
"But for the sake of this country... you should still die, monster."
With a forceful downward thrust, he moved without the slightest hesitation, the greatsword whipping up a powerful wind as it slashed towards Fran.
it's over……
"Now... can I be considered a strong person?"
"Heh, who knows..."
Seeing the enormous blade rapidly approaching, Fran finally came to her senses, and her already weakened consciousness snapped completely.
And in the very next instant.
While unconscious, Fran seemed to vaguely hear a calm and gentle female voice:
"Okay, that's enough."
Clang!
boom!
!
