Vampire Primogenitor - Chapter 25:Gnomes
Chapter 25: Gnomes
After I entered the 2nd floor, I instantly transformed into my bat form because the moment I arrived, I sense a group of monsters in my vicinity.
After I flew up, I saw which monster it is.
“Gnomes!” unlike the gnomes on earth and in a certain princess’s story that is good and cute. The gnomes in here can’t be called cute at all. They’re look are far more terrifying than the clowns.
“Eek eek eek” the gnomes roared at me, while some of them thrown their knives.
The moment they realized that they can’t hit me; they all started digging a hole in the ground and entered into it.
I flew in a certain direction for a few minutes and scout around the 2nd floor.
While I was flying and scouting around, my blood sensitivity sensed something.
I flew towards the direction and I saw something shocking scene.
A party of 20 mercenaries is constantly defending against a huge wave of countless gnomes.
‘Hoi, hoi, hoi, how can there be so many gnomes! If I estimate their number they can already be counted into a thousand or even ten thousand won’t be an exaggeration.’
I watched those mercenaries defend themselves. The gnomes attacked the mercenaries without a care about their lives.
“Kyaaa!” a woman mercenary screamed with a voice filled with dread
“Help!” she look at her comrades and asked for someone to help her.
A guy approaches her and attacks the gnomes with his sword while trying to grab the woman into his embrace.
After seeing the guy tried to save the woman, the gnomes got enraged and they grab the woman’s leg and dragged her away from the mercenaries.
“Ahhhhh!” The woman screamed and started hitting the nearby gnomes with her hands and kicking with her other leg with all of her strength.
“Help me!” she cried out and looks at the guy who tried to help her earlier.
After making sure that the guy can’t approach the woman, the gnomes started removing her armors, weapons, and clothes.
The moment she got undressed, the gnomes jumped into her body and started biting her.
“Ahhhh!” she screamed with a voice filled with pain and terror.
“Babe!” the man shouted while massacring all the gnomes in his way.
“Bernard don’t go there!” a guy shouted at him and tried to stop him but failed to do.
“Stop!” a guy also shouted at the same time.
The guy named Bernard madly rushed into the woman, by the time he arrives near her, he saw a flying object and drop at his feet.
I look what is the thing that flew into his feet and saw something wonderful.
A bloody sliced cupcake with a black bean filling on its top part.
After a few seconds, a tiny hand grabbed the cupcake and started devouring it.
“Ahh!” a scream rang out.
“Ahahahahahah, ahahahah!”
The moment he witnessed the cupcake get devoured, the guy started screaming and laughing madly and started killing.
He arrived at the position where the woman is, but too only see her bones without a shred of flesh on it.
After checking that there is no flesh on the body of the woman, the gnomes look at the direction of the guy and pounced at him and pinned him down.
Just like the woman, they remove all of his belongings and started devouring him.
The guy started struggling with great force. Noticing that he’s struggling a gnome bit his holy weapon and devour it in one gulp
“Ahhhh!” He screamed in pain and hatefully glared at the gnome who bit his holy weapon.
The gnomes ignored his stare and cut his flesh and devoured it.
The gnomes started hitting each other and fighting over his flesh, the weaker gnomes got sent flying in the back while it can only glare at the others with its bloodshot eyes and started rushing into the mercenaries.
After a few seconds, the guy died and only his bones remained in the ground.
“Bernard, Marie, I will avenge you!” a woman swore and continuously attack the gnomes in her vicinity.
“Turtle formation!” a leader looking guy ordered with a loud voice and started walking in a certain direction
The mercenaries formed a circle, those who have a shield and swords on their hands filled the front position and raised their shields and formed a circular wall. Those who have spears filled the position in the back of the knights while inserting their shields in the hole the front line purposely left unguarded while the archers, healers, and mages filled the central position.
The gnomes pounced at the circular wall but they got only either knocked back by the shields or slew by the spears.
The archers and mages also attacked and sent their arrows and spell flying into the gnomes
“That’s it, let’s just continue this way, and let’s see who will run out first.
Our magic and arrows or their numbers!” the leader looking guy said while trying to raise the morale of the mercenaries.
A few minutes passed and the number of the gnomes started falling.
“I’m out of arrow!” an archer loudly said and raises his hand which is holding a bow.
“Me too!” an elven girl add in
“Same here!” a guy also raises his bow and loudly said
One archer after another raises their bows and loudly said that they don’t have any arrows left.
After the archers raise their bows, someone suddenly passed out.
“Hey!” a guy catches the guy who passed out and tapped his forehead.
“He is mind down, it seems he drained all his magic.” The guy said and put the passed out guy into a sitting position
After him, a guy also passed out with the same symptom.
“Magus, don’t drain your magic completely, leave a small amount of magic that will allow you to stay conscious. ” The leader looking guy
(Magus – a term used if there are two or more magi. Of course, the meaning of magus in the dictionary is totally different from my definition)
After hearing the leader looking guy, a magi sat down and was followed by the other magus until there are no magi standing up.
The leader looking guy looked at his comrades and analyzed the situation and look at the defenders in the front, and the attackers.
‘The front can barely hold up while the spearmen are already fatigue
At this rate, we will perish here without even a burial. If big brother was here, what will he do?’ The leader looking guy started pondering about how they will escape the calamity.
While pondering, he noticed that the gnomes started halting their attack and stared at them from afar. Looking at the gnomes’ strange behavior the mercenaries got nervous and gulp down their saliva.
“Be alert! Something is about to happen!” the leader looking guy commanded with a nervous voice while his eyes are constantly looking around.
The ground suddenly shakes as if there is an earthquake and slowly destroyed the formation of the mercenaries.
‘Booommm!’………
(Hi guys, I’m finally back. Well first let me apologize for disappearing. You see, I got into a car accident and was hospitalized. I just woke up a few days ago and am still weak. Right now, I’m still in the hospital and getting treated. So I want to tell you guys that I could only post a few chapters in a week and not daily. Since I’m not like the Protagonist of this novel, I can’t heal my injuries like him. Well if a beauty visits me and gives me a special service, I might recover fast just like Liam hehe. For the time being, please enjoy this new chapter)
