Taming My Vampire Servant - Chapter 212

Meanwhile, Prince Levi and his comrades used almost half of their mana in the prison beach. Still, their teamwork and tactics were far more effective than the proud Royal Knights, plus, the Werewolves had both heightened hearing and smell.

Preston and Mermaine were ordered to standby on the shore, so that they could conserve mana the instance that they needed to escape.

The others were able to enter the castle prison, but when they arrived at the rose garden after the hallway, Prince Jaquin and his allies blocked them.

The young prince grinned as he said, “As the heir to the throne, I have a duty to protect the castle from troublemakers like you… Don’t you dare pass!” he unsheathed an enchanted broadsword, with inscriptions that shone a striking red glow.

“What a bold statement, Mr. Heir,” Levi glared at him, “Apologies, but you’re no heir. How can you be King, if you’re stupid?”

“Stu- What? How dare you call me stupid!”

“Master, please be careful… I remember, he killed his own brother two years ago,” Ivory whispered in a worried tone.

“You… I remember you!” Prince Jaquin narrowed his eyes on Ivory. “When I followed my brother secretly to the Land of Olivea, I was informed that he likes you… That stupid brother thought I didn’t know his weakness! If I did not lie to him saying that you came back while we fought, he wouldn’t have turned his head around. He wouldn’t be a cripple in those two years-”

“You mean… Prince Jirou is alive?” she widened her eyes in shock.

“Yes, but I destroyed all of his dragon’s mana. So he’s a weakshit now-”

“Who are you calling a weakshit, Jaquin?” a man’s voice suddenly said.

Everyone looked up, and saw a dragon with golden scales and beard. It had two frills on its neck and a pair of sail-like wings stretching from its shoulder down to its tail.

Riding on it was a fair-skinned man with charcoal black hair. He smiled when he met Ivory’s eyes.

Jaquin trembled as he saw his majestic golden dragon he had not yet seen before, “What the- I destroyed your Beast Servant, so why-”

“Have you met mother?” he asked as he looked down on him.

“She died when I was born, right?” the younger prince replied, “Wait. Why do we talk about her?”

Prince Jirou only smirked, “I’ll tell you if you can take me down. Why don’t you come up here and settle our unfinished business?”

“You’re so full of yourself. If father did not come to stop me, you would have died last time!” the impatient prince called his brown dragon Beast Servant. Without delay, he rode on it.

“Ivory Sprucemint,” Jirou called while he gazed at her amorously, “Just finish off my father’s dogs. Let me take care of this stupid brother of mine.”

“I-”

“After this, I want you to give me a chance.”

When Jaquin flew upwards, he set his golden dragon to keep a distance, and the two brothers exchanged magic attacks while in the air.

The confused Ivory creased his brow, not knowing what Jirou meant by it.

Levi then asked Ivory, “You seem to attract bad men.”

“What do you mean, Master?”

Prince Levian shook his head, saying it was nothing, and he and his allies finally charged at the castlemen.

Meanwhile, in the middle of the Land of Rosaria, General Darius Goldwine and his men had successfully defended themselves against the Bronzelain guards and castle knights.

Only General Peter Bronzelain remained standing. He gripped and pierced his bluish claymore sword with yellow carvings on it onto the bloody soil, as he tried to stand up with his two feet. But, he failed to do so since his swordfish Beast Servant depleted its mana as well.

Lucius pointed his blazing sword in front of his face, “We all thought you were our ally. But at the last minute you backed out. Aside from that, you even told them our plans… Were you the same General we met at Topazeon town?”

The fallen General slowly raised his head and met Lucius’ eyes, “King Yama saved my life once, and I vowed to follow him at all costs.”

The blond young master added, “Is that the reason why you lied to Preston, your only brother?”

“I am the General, and the King’s subject. My priority is to serve the King-” he stopped talking when he coughed blood. Clenching his chest armor, he breathed heavily.

General Darius creased his brows, “General Peter. You and I had no conflicts as Generals, so I still want you to be my ally.”

“Tell Preston… I apologize… I am just doing my job as the General.” General Peter coughed more blood, “Looks like I used too much magic… This is my… limit…”

As soon as Preston fell down, the Goldwine General ordered his men to pick him up and bring him to the Sanctuary to be treated. He was hoping that a capable General like Peter would not die in that cold war.

While General Goldwine’s guards were tending to their wounds, identifying dead bodies, and arresting some of General Bronzelain’s troops, Lucius excused himself to report to ex-Royal Knight Xenos Joltane, who was assigned to guard Sigmund in the gloomiest cottage in Rubia Town.

As soon as he arrived at the town’s front, one of Levi’s men recognized him and led him towards the house at the far back of the community. Lucius felt the strong presence of the magic and sound barrier that was put in the whole house.

“Sir Lucius Goldwine,” Xenos uttered as he walked towards him from inside. “How’s the situation?”

“I still do not have news about the prison beach team, but General Platinumcore’s team won. Me and my father also won and secured the middle part of the Land of Rosaria.”

While Xenos and Lucius were busy talking, they did not notice that a man wearing an allied guard’s uniform secretly entered the cottage.

Sigmund saw a hooded man enter. When the man put the hood down, the moonlight from the window showed his green hair.

The man chanted a spell, taking off the sound and mana barrier. He grinned at Sigmund, who was confused that a stranger could take off such powerful barriers.

“Hi, Vampire. I am taking you out. Let’s go-”

Sigmund grabbed his arm and glared at him, “Why should I trust you… Who are you?”

He paused for a short while, as if thinking about what to say.. Then, he told the Vampire, “My name is Helios.”
