2nd place in the solver ranking is Mikhail Langabes.

That being, who had clearly lived for countless years… had an appearance close to that of a young man.

Of course, no matter what, I cursed in a low voice and shouted while waving my hands around towards the surroundings.

“Ugh! You all stop! Don’t come closer!”

It may seem like a natural behavior for a scared kid.

But my current actions were strategic. Only for vampires!

Vampires have no choice but to instinctively follow the words of those of a higher blood level than themselves.

So, as a blood lord, I say that all of the ranked 2nd place and other blood demons sitting in that luxurious chair right now are without exception!

It is inevitable that you will be influenced by what I just said.

Sure enough, the vampires who had settled down around Langabeth began to break into a cold sweat.

This is because the body stopped moving regardless of its will.

There were fewer people wearing colored glasses and sunglasses, but this could be confirmed through the facial combs of those who did not.

However, there was no time to explain this part to the group.

Even if I thought my confusion was real, I couldn’t help it.

“2nd place, it’s been a while.”

However, contrary to appearance, it was Ilsung who opened his mouth first.

Ilseong, as expected, seemed taken aback by the sudden appearance of the vampires and Langabes around him.

However, due to the characteristics of Dobermans, they have a black face and black eyes, so the changes were not apparent compared to other people.

It’s as if it’s difficult to see the expression of a black person in a dark place.

Isn’t this racism? What do you think! I looked like I was going to die!

Langabes only nodded slightly in response to Ilsung’s greeting.

“It’s been a while. Eslok.”

“….”

At the mere appearance of the man who had once been his master, Eslok seemed to momentarily lose his head and become contemplative.

Otherwise, he would not have dropped the body of his precious lover.

“I see a familiar face here.”

“If you really think so, why not let us go?”

Ilsung did not miss Langabes’ idiomatic expression.

“I want to do that too, but.”

When Langabes stood up from the chair, the ornate shape of the chair, which had been hidden by his body, was fully revealed.

“There is a reason why I came here.”

“Are you talking about this child?”

“Yes.”

Ilsung pointed at me and he nodded.

…is something strange?

He got up from the chair and was coming towards me as if nothing had happened.

No, is this possible?

I very naturally aimed the pistol I was holding at number 2 in the rankings.

“Chris?!”

Ilseong was embarrassed and called my name… but it was already Ta-ang! With a sound, a magic bullet pierced Langabeth’s head.

No, it didn’t penetrate, it just passed through. It passed very cleanly.

***

Immediately afterwards, Langabeth’s appearance became blurred for a moment.

“Excellent. How did you know I wasn’t here?”

Ilsung was surprised that the Mikhail Langabes in front of him was not real but just a projected screen.

Meanwhile, I regretfully did not say anything to the question from the person ranked second in the solver rankings.

huh! I can’t say, ‘I’m a blood lord, so you can’t listen to me and move on so easily.’

Then Langabeth and his men will really turn on their eyes and try to catch me.

Because I learned that no matter what their appearance, there are vampires who have reached the blood level of blood lords.

“It’s a feeling.”

“…You’re lying.”

‘Ah, this persimmon is really good.’

It seems that this kind of shallow trick doesn’t work, considering who is ranked 2nd.

“Everyone stick to me! mole! You too!”

“Welcome!”

Youngmin shouted at Eslok, who was already holding his lover’s body in his arms.

“Catch them!”

The races of vampires here were truly diverse.

Among them, the Bodyanoi vampire, a race of frog beasts wearing jagged armor, was the first to shout.

At that cry, the other vampires all tried to get up from their seats.

“Stop! Stop the violence!”

I shouted urgently and spread my wings, which were bigger than before.

With these wings that have only grown once… can you fly with three people and a corpse?

Even Eslok is not usually that big.

“Oh, wait. Moles, you can fly, right?!”

“…Yes.”

After listening to me, Eslok took out wings that were incomparably larger than mine.

“Ilsung is over there! Youngmin, hold on tight!”

The situation was so urgent that there was no time to reprimand Eslok. At my words, Ilseong quickly turned to Eslok and swung the sword of Hromund in his hand towards the front.

A purple lightning struck the vampires in front along the path swung by Ilsung.

“Follow me!”

Eslok and I took advantage of that gap and started flying soaring from the spot.

“Chase!”

Ah… those guys were vampires too.

Some vampires even emerged in that short period of time, using bat flocks as stepping stones.

In addition, a flock of bats moving from a different direction appeared and approached Eslok.

“Aaaah!”

I quickly turned my head and glared at the guys who were quickly chasing after me. Malaria call! Malaria call!!!

Mosquitoes, bats, anything is fine, so help me!

In the meantime, Youngmin was grabbed by me and took out his laser sword.

‘ah.’

Youngmin moving while I was holding him didn’t help at all.

***

I felt grateful, but it felt like cursing was rising up to my throat.

“Young..Minah!”

“Huh?!”

“Leave this to me!”

I endured it well! I’ve endured this well!

Meanwhile, in addition to flocks of bats, swarms of mosquitoes began to appear in the sky in the northern part of the city.

A swarm of mosquitoes slowly chased us as we flew at high speed.

Fortunately, the group of bats encountered a swarm of mosquitoes and their numbers were greatly reduced.

‘Not the bat! ‘Aim for vampires!’

I don’t know if the swarm of mosquitoes read my thoughts, but it passed by the bat swarm and struck the vampires who were behind the bats.

Due to the sudden attack, the vampires slowed down or stopped altogether and began attacking the swarm of mosquitoes.

Even though there were swarms of mosquitoes coming from all directions… the speed at which the vampires dealt with the swarms was faster than the speed at which the swarms came.

“Chris!”

“Why?!”

Meanwhile, Ilsung, who was holding on to Eslok, who was following me closely behind, pointed somewhere.

“Ah….”

I don’t know who on earth went up to the altitude where flight is prohibited, but a group of gargoyles were flying towards us.

I don’t think it’s me and Eslok!

A swarm of vampires, a swarm of bats, a swarm of mosquitoes, and even gargoyles.

A bloody battle was taking place between various forces that embroidered the sky.

“Still, this is an opportunity! Let’s fly a little lower!”

Eslok did not respond to my words, but quickly lowered his altitude to follow me.

Because the gargoyles are probably targeting vampires, not us.

“Chris, the vampires have started fighting the gargoyles!”

“Uh, that. Thank goodness!”

In order to respond to the gargoyle’s heavy attack, some vampires were stranded.

Only when the muscles in both wings felt like they were going to tear were we able to shake off the chase from the group of vampires.

“Where is the nearest station nearby?”

“I will guide you.”

Ilsung took the lead and guided us to the nearest horse power train station nearby.

“Well, wouldn’t it be noticeable if I kept holding him?”

“….”

Eslok said nothing.

“Ha, it’s really going to spin.”

There was nothing wrong with what Youngmin pointed out. It was impossible for Eslok to take the body of his dead lover on the train.

It was obvious that a video would be uploaded with a provocative title like ‘@Hoseon Corpse Love Doll Geohan’.

“Youngmin.”

“Huh?”

“Could the Mimic Wallet also store other items?”

“It is possible. …It’s possible, though.”

Youngmin looked at me with a puzzled expression.

After a while.

“Hey, open your mouth! Won’t you open it?!”

I was in the midst of a power struggle with my Mimic wallet.

Eslok was struggling to figure out what to do as he was about to put his lover’s body in his Mimic wallet.

“Youngmin, stay there!”

Youngmin followed my instructions and grabbed another part of the Mimic wallet.

“Wait a minute. I have a good idea.”

Ilseong said that while Youngmin and I opened the mouth of the Mimic wallet wide and put a few bills inside.

“…!”

Then the Mimic wallet widened its mouth as if it was pleased.

“Now!”

We immediately shoved the dead woman’s body into the purse.

“It will be okay. Although it may be a problem when taking it out.”

Ilseong spoke to Eslok as if comforting him, but the words were not comforting at all.

***

“Hey, don’t worry too much. Even when he takes it out like Ilseong just did, he will open his mouth and say that he would like to be paid some money.”

Probably.

I couldn’t be sure of anything.

However, in the Dream City game, there were a few scenes where the Mimic Wallet was used as if it were a 4D pocket.

If we hadn’t been impressed by that scene, we would have probably become stars on the Internet.

Our next move was quick and precise.

After boarding the magic levitation train, we returned from the northern part of the city to the eastern part of the city via the fastest route.

Ilsung and Youngmin first parted ways to inform the Ildong office of what happened today.

“Okay, let’s get it out of here.”

Since we had arrived at Cabrini Green anyway, flying to the Silver Side was easy.

“Do you have any money?”

“Yes.”

Before we knew it, Eslok had transformed into a giant mole.

Is this proof that he has now returned to a calmer state of mind?

Without even bothering to ask, I opened the mouth of the Mimic wallet wide.

“Open up!”

Using even my vicious right hand, I began to forcefully open the mouth of the Mimic wallet.

“Then I’ll throw it.”

Eslok calmly began tossing several bills into the mouth of his wallet.

Then, Lillian’s body was seen in the open mouth of the purse.

I held onto her body with difficulty with the little boy’s short arms. Then Eslok changed into his true form and picked up her body again.

It was just like a princess hugging position.

It is a sad truth that the princess is dead.

But suddenly I had a question.

“Eslok, is Lillian human?”

“…I’m a vampire.”

I thought he wasn’t a vampire because he didn’t regenerate, but it seems he wasn’t. To be honest, I didn’t even have time to check that part.

“It must have been so weak that it couldn’t even be played.”

“Yes, but he was my precious companion.”

After Eslok had said that part with his own mouth, tears began to flow from his strong-looking eyes.

With my current body, I can’t wipe away the flowing tears due to my short stature, but… I could suggest another solution.

“…If I can save Lillian’s life. Then what will you do for me?”

“….”

“To you until my life ends! Dear Chris! I will be loyal.”

Any vampire of Eslok’s level will know what I mean.

The blood lords at the top of the vampire class pyramid, known as blood dynasties, are not only strong.

A being capable of leading a clan.

Naturally, the blood of a blood lord could do things that the blood of an ordinary vampire could not.

For example, if the person had died for a short period of time, it was possible to resurrect another vampire.

Of course, the amount of blood consumed varied greatly depending on the power of the target vampire.

“It’s a secret from others that I am a blood lord.”

“…You mean Youngmin too?”

“I will take care of that.”

“Yes.”

Eslok did not inquire further.

He silently opened his lover’s cold mouth affectionately.

I cut the inside of the palm of my left hand with the vicious nail of my right hand.

We don’t know exactly how much blood is needed. Even if there was more blood than necessary, it would give Lillian strength.

Talk. Talk.

A few drops of blood entered Lillian’s mouth.

That moment. Eslok and I could feel it clearly.

My heart, which had stopped, started beating again.

Her miserably broken neck began to take its original shape.

Her dead eyes that had lost focus began to look at her lover again.

“…Eslok.”

“Lillian.”

A faint voice sounded as if she was about to die, and Eslok held her in his arms and began to cry bitterly.

I didn’t look back at the scene.

A true blood lord would never look back at such a sight.

…But how long are you planning on crying?

‘Ah, Youngmin, I miss you!’
