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

Erdrich looked at Elizabeth’s bright golden eyes, as he felt slightly captivated. She was also crying out of the sudden. If there’s something to say about her is that aside from her incredible magic and spirit, Elizabeth is a very empathic girl. She’s capable of putting herself in the shoes of the people she just meet, and relate to their emotions so strongly that she feels their sadness or happiness very easily.

She’s also said to have the power to see through the intentions of people, if they’re either bad or good… strangely enough, despite my shady intentions, she doesn’t seem to even detect them. Perhaps to her, I am a good person.

“W-Why are you crying?” Cried Erdrich.

“Because… It makes me sad to see you like this…” Cried Elizabeth.

“W-Why?!” Asked Erdrich.

“W-Why… why shouldn’t I?” Sighed Elizabeth.

“Ah…”

I walked to the two as looked down at Erdrich.

“Erdrich, despite being a half-demon, there is a big reason why you weren’t killed on sight. Your father still loves you, but he’s afraid of your powers.” I said. “He doesn’t want you to hurt the family like your mother once did…”

“S-So that’s… it…” He cried. “Then… it is just as I thought…”

“Erdrich, our group of priests, counting me, Elizabeth, Seth, Jack, and Ellergest all took place into what happened to your mother. We are all responsible for her death.” I said. “And as such a responsibility, we must take care of you.”

“S-So you were… the ones that killed her?” Erdrich looked at me and then at Elizabeth, the girl that was crying… In his mind, there was no way such an adorable and honest girl could had taken the life of his mother.

“Partially, but… I was the one that sliced her head.” I said coldly, as I looked ruthlessly and emotionlessly at the boy.

“E-Eh?”

“I killed her with the assistance of Ellergest.”

“W-Wha…? You?!”

“Yes, me.”

I wasn’t going to keep it a secret from him that would only build more tension in the future. It was better to tell him things upfront directly.

The moment Elizabeth heard what I said, she tried to reprimand me.

“B-Blank! How can you say that?! You don’t have to… tell him so directly!” She reprimanded me, trying to stop me from talking anymore, but I grabbed her arm and moved her aside gently as I looked at Erdrich from above.

His face grew darker, as he began to unleash a strong demonic aura. He was pissed off.

“What’s wrong? Are you angry? How do you feel? Are you anguished? Do you feel frustrated? What do you have to say to me?” I asked, provoking him. “Are you willing to forgive me or are you going to teach me a lesson for killing your demon mother?”

“Y-Youu…!”

“What’s wrong? Are you afraid of me?” I asked. “Do you think I’ll kill you like I did with your mother? …Quite honestly, it is not so hard.”

“Y-YOUUUUU!”

Erdrich’s skin suddenly began to grow redder, as if many flame-like tattoos started to grow from his chest, which glowed bright red. His entire skin was engulfed by those red tattoos as his skin slowly turned redder. A pair of black horns grew from his forehead, as his ears grew sharp and long, two enormous tusks surged from his lower jaw, as his eyes turned completely red.

“Come at me.”

“RAAAAAA!!!”

“W-Wait!”

Elizabeth tried to stop us, but I quickly conjured a Wind Barrier and she was stopped by the might of my Tier 1 Wind Attribute Magic. Meanwhile, Erdrich roared and rushed towards my side, completely covered in miasmic demonic energy, resembling a furious demon no similar at all to how he looked before.

“I’m gonna kill you! DIE!”

The had completely lost his reason, and this was what I wanted. Not only I wanted to see how far he could go, but I also wanted him to get everything he had inside his heart out right away, without any roundabouts.

“Do your worst.”

CLASH!
