I, a Radiant Paladin, Was Embraced by a Vampire Queen! - Chapter 31

“Are you just going to stand there and do nothing?”

“If you make me feel bored, I can make you sleep forever right now.”

Laite·Bellman and the werewolf leader stood facing each other. It had been thirty seconds since the werewolf leader had stood up, but he had not done anything. This was starting to get boring for the paladin.

“There’s still four minutes and twenty-five seconds left. There’s not much time left for you to resist.”

Laite·Bellman glanced at the small circle of magic light on his arm armor as he spoke. There were four and a half circles left.

Seeing that the werewolf leader still didn’t move, he took a small step forward and gently waved his sword.

This movement was not missed by the werewolf leader. Staring at Laite·Bellman’s expressionless face as he stepped towards himself, the leader immediately jumped into the air and landed behind Laite·Bellman.

“I can’t afford to offend you, but can’t I just offend others instead?”

The werewolf leader didn’t even turn his head as he rushed towards the passersby who were watching the commotion outside the door, preparing to start his slaughter.

‘Don’t kill the innocent.’

Harlen, who was hiding behind the gate, sent a telepathic message to the alpha wolf.

The leader, who had received the message from his master, didn’t stop running towards the crowd. He simply replied with one word, ‘Understood.’

Seeing him pouncing towards the entrance, the passersby who had been watching the show with great interest lost their composure and fled in panic.

“Run!”

“That wolf is here to kill again!”

“Find a place to hide!”

“Protect the children. Let them hide.”

“Why are you knights running? Hurry up and activate the barrier to protect us!”

Instantly, the originally orderly pedestrians on the street turned into a chaotic mess.

People fled in all directions, knocking over the roadside stalls as well as the children that could only take small and slow steps.

There was another major stampede.

Even the medics who were originally healing the wounds caused by the crack in the ground instantly stopped their healing spells and abandoned the wounded before fleeing in all directions.

This group of Medical Knights and passers-by had already been frightened by the brutal killing methods of the werewolves.

Bang!

The werewolf leader, who had been aiming for a muscular man, missed and his sharp claws struck the ground.

That strength created a huge crater in the ground.

When the muscular man saw the werewolf leader attacking him, he was instantly frightened out of his skin. He burst out with 120% of his potential as he turned to run, but tripped and fell heavily.

It was this accidental fall that allowed him to dodge the werewolf leader’s claw attack, causing the latter to miss.

Seeing that he was still alive, the muscular man who was lying on the ground with his hands tightly hugging the back of his head and shivering all over slowly raised his head and looked around.

“I… I’m still alive?”

The muscular man touched his face and neck with both hands.

“It’s still here, my head is still here!!”

“I’m still alive, I’m still alive!”

“Hahahahaha!!!”

“The werewolf actually missed… haha… that’s all it is worth!”

The muscular man was very glad and secretly delighted.

Just as the muscular man was about to get up and continue running, he realized that his lower body was hurting.

The muscular man was a little surprised. He lay back on his stomach and looked behind him. What he saw frightened him so much that he rolled his eyes and fainted.

He saw that the sharp claws of the wolf’s head were about 0.1 centimeters away from the muscular man’s lower body. If he had moved slightly, he would spend the rest of his life without his lower half.

Meanwhile, the werewolf leader slowly raised his head and looked ahead with a hoarse grin. His eyes were fierce, and his mouth was still dripping with smelly saliva.

This scene was coincidentally seen by the man when he turned his head to check the situation. The moment his eyes met the werewolf’s large red ones, he was instantly frightened unconscious by the malevolent aura the latter was emitting.

The werewolf leader pulled out his sharp claws that were deeply embedded into the ground, and then charged towards the guards and knights.

He wasn’t at all interested in this muscular man who had fainted from fright.

“Hey, you! Watch your back!”

A Knight running in front shouted at another Knight four meters behind him.

However, it seemed a little belated.

The guard knight who was running behind was decapitated and fell to the ground.

“Ahhh!”

A glamorous lady who was running beside this knight suddenly saw the knight who was originally running away with her instantly beheaded, falling into a pool of its own blood. She immediately cried out in shock and directly sat on the ground that was dyed red with blood.

Fear was written all over the noblewoman’s face as she stared blankly at the soldier lying in a pool of blood. A silly smile on her face, as if she was reduced to an empty shell that had lost her soul.

“This damned wolf!”

“Why didn’t Sir Laite kill it?!”

“Why did he cure it?!!”

“Why?!”

“Ah!!”

With a heart-wrenching scream, another knight guard was decapitated in a pool of blood.

“Hey! You guys! Quickly activate the barrier!”

The knight in the middle stopped the knights in front of him and signaled them to activate their barrier magic to protect the crowd. He also activated his own barrier magic.

The guards pressed their palms together and chanted the spell to activate the barrier spell.

Buzz!

Several white balls of light spread out around the crowd.

The light balls spread outwards with the guards as the center. It only stopped when it reached a radius of two meters.

These guards were low-level warriors at the Bronze 5 Star Rank, thus the barrier magic they could utilize was only at the Bronze 4 Star Rank. The range of one spell could only cover a 2.5 meters radius at maximum.

In contrast, some high-level barrier spells could spread to a radius of 100 meters, 200 meters, 300 meters, and so on. The distance that could be spread would increase according to the increase in their Rank.

“It’s the barrier. We’re saved.”

After seeing the knight guards open the barrier, the panicked passersby seemed to have seen the light of dawn in the endless darkness and quickly ran into the barrier.

“Don’t squeeze! Don’t squeeze!”

“Don’t push my barrier away.”

The crowd were akin to people who had rekindled their hope, rushing madly into the barriers created by the knights.

However, the protective barrier that the knight had created was only four meters wide. How could it contain so many people?

“Don’t push me! It’s full! Get out!”

A few passers-by at the edge of the barrier were frantically being pushed inwards by the passersby outside.

However, the area around the knights was already crowded with people. At this moment, no one could squeeze another body in, not even a child.

“F*ck!”

“This daddy said to stop pushing!”

One of the strong young men inside the barrier was pushed to the edge by an old man outside the barrier. With a backhand punch, he knocked the old man unconscious.

Under such a calamity, how could he have the time to care about others? His life and survival were the most important thing right now.

When the people around the old grandpa saw that he had lost consciousness, they grabbed the old grandpa’s clothes and dragged him behind so that they could take his place and continue to squeeze into the barrier.

“Ahh!”

“Ahh!”

Amidst the crowd, a little girl from an unknown family was helplessly being pushed around by the crowd. Her soft and tender hands were trampled by countless people. The little girl cried helplessly in the crowd, but no one could hear her..
