Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 302: Vampires!

Lord Ice Moon POV

-----

Invaders entered my room from the window at my side, two or three figures coated in shadows. They exuded a strong red aura, and their mana was vast.

I quickly reacted, I was a Rank 4 after all, I had the power and the meaning to even fight back against surprise attacks.

I conjured a strong spell, Freezing Zone, to freeze anything around me, this way I can immobilize them and see who they are.

But they ended being quicker than even my chant speed.

A fist reached my chest, this fist was strong, it was charged with immense quantities of mana and in a superb way, the mana emanated from the fist reached my chest and emptied my lungs of the air, while breaking three of my ribs and even impacting my heart.

It hurt.

BOOM! contemporary romance

I was thrown to the ground helplessly. I tried to quickly release some quick magic but even that was negated from my grasp as a red needle pierced my neck and paralyzed me.

I was a weak man… to think I could be paralyzed so easily by this toxin.

My entire body ended in a vegetable state, but I could still speak.

I looked at the figures still shrouded in darkness, the only thing I could see was their eyes. They were crimson-red, and their very bodies exuded a strong bloodthirst as well.

These creatures… are they Vampires?

I can already tell by those two things. In the books I've read about them, they might have the ability to shroud their bodies on illusions, their eyes shone with crimson-red light, and their auras were eerie and of bloodthirst…

In this continent in the past, our Venerable hunted them down near extinction. They were demons that took over the world and terrorized all other races. It was a chaotic era of blood.

But these monsters are still alive, lurking within the shadows of other sects, working as puppeteers of sect masters. Many sects had been found to being manipulated from behind by Vampires.

To think that there would be one day where they would target me.

I have left completely hopeless! I couldn't even see them coming! How strong are they?! And if they're so strong, what could they possibly get from me…

"Who… who are you?!" I asked, my voice was trembling. Despite how old and strong I was, I couldn't help but ask this question while my lips trembled… I had become such a pathetic and tiny man now. Before true might, I end becoming terrified and submissive.

I am really nothing…

I sensed their Auras, they were all Rank 4 like me… to think that our level of power was so vastly different despite our realms being the same! The tools and powers that Vampires enjoy are vastly different than those of us mortals. The moment they become Vampires they acquire powerful regeneration, amazing strength, and powerful blood magic, capable of doing many things, such as toying with life itself and control a person's internal organs.

That punch in my chest was enough to immobilize me and throw me to the ground, such a punch wasn't normal, it was perhaps infused with blood magic, using it to control the blood in my body momentarily and break my own body from the inside…

And their speed… their speed is the most terrifying thing! If I had been stronger, or just faster, I could have some hope or something… but now, I was left before their mercy.

"We are what you see… Lord Ice Moon. We had come here as a request of our Lady."

"We require the information of Ruby Von Sange, a little Vampire girl that had arrived in this town a few years ago."

"As the sect master, you're the man that knows the most about your place, right? Tell us where you have her hidden and we'll be merciful enough to not kill you and only make of you one of our pawns."

The three-spoke one after another. The first one was a woman, the second an old man, and the other had the voice of a young man…

I wasn't able to see their races due to the shadows covering them, but all three of them were smaller than me, they were definitely not giants. Most likely humans or elves, the preferred race of Vampires, according to what has been registered.

The bloodlines of our strong ancestor, Ymir, is hard to be infected by the Vampire Curse, due to this, our kin is highly resistant to being converted into Vampires and we can withstand their bites without being infected, although too many might still infect us or kill us at worst.

But… what are they talking about? I had never seen such a girl before, nor I have ever heard about her!

Was there such a Vampire young girl in this town this entire time, and I didn't even know about it?

This is once more due to my own mistakes! This is due to my own negligence if I had been closer to people if I could have been different… If I could have changed the fate and do something different if I could… If I could have changed how things were!

But to no avail, I was pathetically powerless before all of this, and also ignorant that such a dangerous being had been lurking inside my place this entire time.

"I… I don't know who are you talking about… I have never seen such a girl before." I said honestly.

"You fool, you've chosen torture, I see…"

"I suppose we cannot really make him talk like this; we must try to be more diverse in our methods."

"Being merciful doesn't work against giants, they're too prideful and selfish, you have to make them suffer a lot for them to talk."

"Let's see how many times you can scream for your ancestor Ymir…"

The woman's claws pierced my chest as she began to absorb the blood out of my body, flowing like a river, the painful sensation of my entire lifeblood being drained out of me made me cry in agony.

However, and suddenly, the door opened, and… Drake and Benladann were there!

"Unnggh… Aaghh! D-Drake…?! H-HELP!"

"Huh? I didn't know we had guests." Said the Vampire.
