[Let me face the darkness and evil of this world with this broken body]
【I don’t know if I will die tonight】
【If I have to sleep forever tonight, that is my destiny】
[Let your humble servant offer his loyalty]
[I am here to repent and atone for my past sins]
Under the moonlight, Talinnam knelt down and prayed. No one heard what he was saying, because everyone was far away from this place. This was almost the burial place of the castle, and the smell of death made the living people afraid to approach.
The ground was extremely bright under the illumination of the twin moons, and the surroundings were as quiet as death.
Talinnam didn't know how long he knelt down to pray, until he vaguely heard a strange sound. It was like the sound of some strange creature flapping its fleshy wings. The sound was very small, as if it was far away, and there was only the reverberation of the friction of leaves.
Prove it existed.
Immediately afterwards, Talinnam noticed another strange sound, which was the crackling sound of some kind of fat creature's toes stepping on the ground. The sound was also not loud, and it could be felt purely because it was in contact with the surrounding people.
The environment seemed out of place.
Gradually, the sound got closer and closer, but the monster was still not seen. Talinnam was still half-kneeling and praying. As the sound approached, Talinam became more and more nervous.
He has no companions, no assistants, no teammates, and even the guards have fled long ago. He must face this evil creature alone.
However, didn’t you ask for this?
A voice sounded in the back of my mind.
Um……
Talinnam answered to that voice, or to be precise, he answered to himself.
He gripped the sword tightly and stood up from the ground. Here is the platform above the castle. Looking down from a high position, you can see the whole town. The place where the heavy weapons for city defense should have been erected is dilapidated, and only
An incomplete heavy catapult, the cantilever has been broken, and it is stained with black blood. It is like a fallen giant, telling the dark horror of the past.
Talinnam doesn't know how many people have died here, hundreds, or thousands... In short, no one has been able to kill this bloodthirsty monster so far.
It was getting closer, and Talinnam felt that the vampire monster was right next to him, but the darkness shrouded the place and protected it, allowing the monster to hide in the dark.
Maybe it has seen me...
Talinnam's heartbeat continued to accelerate.
His hand holding the sword was stained with sweat.
Suddenly, a terrifying howl sounded from the edge of the city wall. Just as Talinnam turned around, the terrifying vampire monster was already running towards him.
In almost no time to react, the monster had already rushed in front of him. In a panic, Talinnam raised his sword to meet the enemy, but was instantly knocked away by the monster's powerful impact, and the long sword in his hand was thrown away.
Fortunately, the wall blocked Talinnam's sliding body, preventing him from falling directly.
However, without giving him a moment to rest, the monster roared and pounced again.
Under the moonlight, Talinnam could clearly see this monster. It had an ugly and deformed head like the Tomb Ghoul, but it also had fleshy wings and sharp claws that the Tomb Ghoul did not have.
From a distance, it looks like a flesh-and-blood monster transformed by rat-men.
With a piercing scream, the vampire monster spread its huge flesh wings and flew towards it.
Talinnam felt his eyes go dark, and his vision was almost completely occupied by this monster.
However, after seeing the entity, Talinnam became less frightened. He had experienced life and death on the battlefield of swords and swords. This kind of scene was not particularly scary to be honest.
The moment the monster swooped towards him, Talinnam rolled to the side, pulled out the dagger from his waist, and faced the vampire monster head-on.
One blow missed, and the vampire monster became furious and attacked again.
The roar pierced the night sky, startling the birds in the distant forest...
This blow was again dodged by Talinnam.
Moreover, after rolling over, Talinnam picked up the long sword that had just fallen on the ground.
It was a gift given to him by the late lord Bertol. Talinnam held the sword in his hand. Under the moonlight, the knight's sword shone brightly. It was a silver sword. Perhaps the flickering silver light made the monsters fearful.
, the vampire monster stopped about ten steps in front of Talinnam.
Obviously, the few dodges just now have let this monster know that the human in front of him is difficult to deal with, and he also has a silver sword specially designed to deal with vampires. However, Talinnam did not intend to bring a silver weapon, but
It just so happens that his sword is a silver sword.
The moonlight lengthened their silhouettes. Within this distance, Talinnam could clearly see the entire monster. Its fangs trembled up and down along with its lips, and disgusting dark green saliva flowed out, leaving traces wherever its feet stepped on.
There was a light mucus.
Talinnam changed his posture, facing the monster sideways, and at the same time leveled the long sword in a stabbing posture.
Just after adjusting its posture, the monster roared and pounced forward again. This time, the vampire monster suddenly jumped into the air when it was still five steps away from Talinnam, and launched a top-down attack on the human knight in front of it.
And Talinnam was also ready to face the attack.
The experienced knight did not choose to fight head-on, but outsmarted him.
The moment the monster pounced down, Talinnam took advantage of the situation and rushed forward. With a sliding shovel, his body lay flat, just dodging the monster's claws. At the same time, his sliding body drove the long sword and passed through the monster's belly.
, the sword blade sliced open the vampire monster's soft abdomen, disemboweling it directly in mid-air.
The monster's thick blood immediately spread all over Talinnam, and in a heartbeat, the offensive and defensive momentum changed. Without giving the monster any time to recover, Talinam tightened his grip on the sword and stabbed it out again.
However, he underestimated the monster's ability.
Even though he was seriously injured, the vampire's powerful power still lifted Talinnam away.
Talinnam was knocked into the corner again, and the silver sword in his hand clinked to the ground again.
However, this time, the monster did not chase him immediately. It was injured, and a large amount of blood dyed the ground under its belly red.
Talinnam once again drew his dagger to defend himself. The blow just now obviously injured him badly.
There was a bone-chilling pain under his ribs, and Talinnam knew that the ribs were probably broken.
But he couldn't show any pain, otherwise, the monster would attack him again.
They are both injured, it just depends on who is weaker.
Talinnam was panting, and the vampire was panting too.
Suddenly, the vampire monster roared again and attacked again regardless of the wound in its abdomen.
Talinnam endured the pain and faced the enemy, but was knocked into the corner by the monster's huge impact.
He groaned in pain, and the monster's clawed feet stepped on Talinnam's chest, as if it was going to crush him at any time. The vampire roared, opened its bloody mouth, and bit the little man under him.
.
Without a word of nonsense, both sides pursued the victory without giving the other a chance to breathe.
At the critical moment, Talinnam tightened his grip on the dagger and plunged it into the monster's foot. The sharp blade cut off the hamstrings of the foot. As the monster screamed in pain, Talinam was able to escape temporarily.
He dragged his scarred body and ran towards the silver sword. Talinnam knew that only this sword could give this monster a fatal blow.
The vampire monster also noticed the purpose of this human knight, and dragged his half-broken body towards Talinnam again.
However, one leg was disabled, which made the vampire monster slow down.
The moment it was impulsively faced, Talinnam had already picked up the sword.
[In the name of the goddess]
Talinnam, who gripped the sword tightly, shouted loudly.
The moment before the vampire opened its mouth to bite, he put the long sword into the monster's mouth.
Under the moonlight, the sharp silver sword, filled with the anger of the knight, split open the monster's cheek, and the blade sank deeply into the vampire's mouth and nose.
In an instant, the monster's thick red-black blood spurted out.
Due to its inertia, the monster was unable to stop for a moment, and Talinnam's long sword sank so deep that it could not be pulled out for a while.
The injured monster and the knight were in a stalemate.
Amid the violent tearing, Talinnam clenched his sword tightly and roared loudly.
Suddenly, the force that the flesh and blood body could withstand reached its limit, and a terrifying sound of tearing was heard. The silver sword in the knight's hand tore open the monster's cheek alive, and the vampire monster also twisted its body under the uncontrollable inertia and fell down.
The city wall was broken...turbid blood spurted out from the split cheek.
