Reincarnated Vampire Princess and Former Hero, Trample Over Mankind - CH 33

Vampire Princess and Three Years Later

Translated by AmaLynne

「《Ice Lance》.」

「《Gravity Bullet》!」

「Oh, that’s just great…!《Tempest Cannon》!」

「Whoa!《Fireblade》!」

In the territory of the demon tribe, there was a desolate land that had not yet been cultivated.

There, instead of rain, there were two shadows casting magic.

One of the shadows is me, Lean Bloodlord. A vampire princess, a survivor of the vampire tribe. The first upper-rank soldier in the demon king’s army.

The other shadow is my magic master, Tiana Forrester. Queen of the Elven Tribe, High Elf. The third-ranking executive of the Demon King’s Army.

As for what we are doing, well, as you can see, we are training in magic.

In the beginning, magic training was all classroom learning, but recently it has become exclusively practical training.

It’s a good experience and a great way to watch and learn Tiana’s magic.

…It’s tough since Tiana’s hidden S thing comes out every now and then, though.

◆◇◆◇◆

I became quite strong through daily training, self-training, raising my level, and working hard for self-strengthening.

Many things happened in the process of getting stronger. Uh-huh.

Ah, it reminds me of that.

Tiana-san’s hell magic training camp was so hellish that the Demon King-sama had to stop it.

I went along with Tiana-san to learn about recovery magic, which she couldn’t use, and for some reason, Tiana-san and Feria-san, who were ahead of me, got into a battle.

Aron-san, a beastman, and the fifth ranking executive started to teach me how to fight in close quarters.

Aron-san was beaten to a pulp by Gray-san the second-highest-ranking executive when he got into a bad mood.

I trained in endless combat with the undead soldiers of Zedd-san, the eighth-ranked undead executive.

Then, for some reason, Luz-san, the fourth-ranked dragonman, intervened, and the soldiers were annihilated.

The Demon King-sama got angry at his behavior and beat up Luz-san to a pulp.

At a dinner party where executives, quasi-executives, and other promising soldiers of upper rank gathered, Aron-san, who was drunk, tangled with the ninth executive, Natsume-san, a mermaid, and Rain-san, the seventh executive fairy who is good friends with her, beat up Aron-san with the whole hall…

…I don’t have any good memories.

If anything, as far as I’m concerned, most of the bad memories are due to all the executives.

And on most occasions, someone is getting beat up.

The demon tribe is supposed to be a mild-mannered race, but somehow our executives are all bloodthirsty people…

Anyway, I have grown up a lot compared to three years ago.

To prepare for the coming day.

◆◇◆◇◆

「Hah… hah… Ti, Tiana-san, go easy on me a little bit…」

「My apologies, Lean-san. I’m afraid that Lean-san is growing up so fast that there are times when I’m in danger if I go easy…」

I’m glad to hear that, but can’t you reduce the power a little more?

Just now, a lightning arrow snatched my cheek.

「But you did a wonderful job, Lean-san. I am impressed that you can fight so well even in the daytime.」

Yes, it is daytime now.

The reason why I, a vampire of the night race, am fighting in the middle of the day?

I recently realized that as one’s level increases, the need for sleep also decreases.

It’s simple. As you level up, you get stronger.

The stronger you get, the more you can perform various moves, and the more strain you place on your brain.

The brain becomes accustomed to that burden, and when you realize it, your brain and body will no longer get tired with just a little bit of exercise. That’s all there is to it.

So, ever since I realized this, I have decided to cut back on my sleeping hours.

I sleep two to three hours now. This is still one of the longer hours among senior soldiers, many of whom are high level.

「I’ve succeeded in cutting back on sleep. These days, my body is lighter and lighter after just a little sleep. It’s amazing what a benefit it is to level up.」

「I have reached the level limiter, so I haven’t leveled up in a long time. But I know the feeling.」

Tiana-san’s current level is 141, and the level limiter came 200 years ago when she was at level 135.

In other words, her level has only gone up by 6 over the past 200 years. Scary, the level limiter.

「…But please sleep well when you can, okay? It may not be necessary, but you are only eight years old. You’re supposed to be in your prime for fun and games…」

「I can’t help it, Tiana-san. It’s my decision…I will destroy all humans, that’s all I will do.」

My determination has not changed or waned at all, even after three years.

Resentment toward humans, the desire to kill, and various other negative emotions. They are alive and well. In fact, I even feel that they are increasing day by day.

Humans who destroyed my peaceful daily lives for their self-gratification and fanaticism.

This time, I will lay waste to you and make you pay.

「You have a pretty face, but you suddenly look bad when the subject of humans comes up, you…Oops. A message from the Demon King-sama.」

Huh? Oh, it’s true.

『Tiana, Lean. Can you hear me? It’s an emergency. We’re going to hold an emergency meeting with the remaining executives. You are to come.』

『Yes, Demon King-sama… If Lean-san is also summoned to the meeting, then she…』

『I’ll explain that later as well. In the meantime, come quickly.』

『Understood.』

『Yes, Demon King-sama.』

Over the past three years, I’ve gotten pretty used to telepathy.

Even so, I am still surprised when they come out of nowhere, so I asked them to insert a ringtone in my head, and I was surprised when it went through easily.

「Shall we go? I’ll transfer you to the front of the Transference Sealing Ward. Please hold on.」

「OK.」

「Then let’s go.《Teleportation》.」

After a moment’s lag, we were in front of the gate of the Demon King’s castle.

We went inside after having the gate opened and when we opened another door, sure enough, a spatial linkage had turned the end of it into a conference room.

The only people inside were the Demon King-sama, Vinel-san, the first ranking executive, Gray-san, the second-ranking executive, Rain-san, the seventh ranking executive, and Zedd-san, the eighth ranking executive.

The other executives must have been away at war. In other words, we were the last after all.

「You’ve come. You are the last. Take your seats.」

When we each took our assigned seats, which had somehow been determined for us, the demon king nodded and began to speak.

「Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to gather. The point is… I’m sure we can all guess what it is, given that you’ve invited Lean here.」

Well, of course.

The timing of the meetings coincides with each other, and I’m not even an executive, let alone an associate executive, so you can probably guess why I’m being called here.

「I just received an urgent call from Natsume. There was a report of a strong young child on the front lines.」

Oh, I knew it.

「That little girl is…she has shaggy silver hair and is about the same age as Leanne. And…she had a face like a dead man, like a doll that never moved an eyebrow when it killed its enemies.」

No doubt.

「Is that what I think it is? Demon King-sama.」

「Yes, I’m sure of it.」

「The『hero』has finally been deployed to the front lines.」
