27. The Curtain of Blood

"You still lost after all——"

Vlad III raised the silver-white spear in his hand and stabbed Animusfiya who fell to the ground.

"hehe....."

Animusfia, who couldn't even turn over, just faced the dirt and chuckled.

The tip of the spear stopped in front of Animusfia.

"Why are you laughing?"

Vlad III asked Animusfia in confusion.

At some point, the redness in Vlad III's eyes had receded, and the bloody aura surrounding him gradually faded away.

The piles standing all over the place disappeared one after another.

The eighty-three towering pillars behind Animusfia that pierced the clone also disappeared.

The sun slowly rose from behind the horizon, and the early morning sunlight shone on Vlad III's face one by one.

The whole night passed.

Vlad III covered the sunlight that hit his eyes with his hands in disgust.

Although he is not afraid of the sun, Vlad III's spiritual power definitely does not like the sun now.

Animusfia on the ground was still panting heavily facing the soil, and he still could not recover enough to turn over.

The clones are constantly summoned, then destroyed, summoned again, and destroyed again.

Although the supply of magic power is provided by the Spear of Ouranos, it has no impact on Animusfia itself.

But the memory of each time he was killed would clearly return to Animusfia's brain.

Including pain.

If we say that the torture Animusfia suffered before was the ultimate in "quietness".

So this time I'm afraid it's the ultimate "movement".

"Is it possible that you want to use the sun to destroy me?"

Vlad III squinted at Animusfia.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha-----"

He rarely laughed loudly.

"But I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. How can I be a real vampire?"

Even though he was slandered by the Ottoman Turks, Vlad III was only called a murderer, a madman, a devil, etc.

It was already more than four hundred years later, at the end of the 19th century, when it was actually vampire Degu's turn.

The novel "Dracula" written by the Irish writer Abraham Bram Stoker truly brought this famous vampire to the stage.

Perhaps everyone can see that Count Dracula bears the shadow of Vlad III.

The most commonly used name for Vlad III is indeed Dracula ().

But Dracula’s original intention was [Son of the Dragon].

Vlad III's father, Vlad II, was once a member of the Order of the Dragon formed by the Holy Roman Emperor.

Vlad II also called himself "Dracul" for this reason.

During the reign of Vlad III, he was happy to use and hear others call himself "Son of the Dragon" ().

Dracula's notoriety was also sung by people at this time along with Vlad III's achievements.

But no one has ever said that Count Dracula was Vlad III himself.

In fact, even the Irish Bram Stoker himself did not associate his vampire with the impaled male in Romania in the early stages of his conception.

He originally wanted to name his novel "Undead Zombies", but even a few weeks before the manuscript was published, the title of his manuscript was still "The Undead".

Until Bram Stoker happened to see a book called "The Principality of Wallachia and Moldavia".

It was only after he read this book that he decided to name his novel "Dracula".

Bram Stoker may have just wanted to borrow some dignity from the illustrious Archduke.

Because of this, Vlad III himself has very little element as the vampire Dracula.

Perhaps there is a real Count Dracula waiting for people to call him as a heroic spirit.

However, Vlad III, who was killed by Feng Ping, still inevitably left traces of vampires in his spiritual base.

He even received a Noble Phantasm for it.

【Legendary of Blood】(the legend of )

Vlad III who activates this Noble Phantasm will directly transform into the vampire Dracula passed down from generation to generation, sealing ordinary skills and Noble Phantasms, but greatly improving his abilities.

He also has the weaknesses of a vampire.

If he were in this state, he might be afraid of sunlight, silver and crosses.

But now Vlad III is still the Archduke of Impalement who defends the motherland.

Although the sun could make Vlad III feel a little uncomfortable, it was just discomfort.

"I am the son of the dragon, the Grand Duke of Wallachia, Vlad III Tepes, not the vampire Dracula——"

Vlad III said this.

"Of course I know you are not the vampire who takes pleasure in killing people and sucking human blood——"

Animusfia, who fell to the ground, interrupted him.

"Therefore there is no need for us to fight."

"Um?"

Just as Vlad III was wondering, he discovered that he had finally regained control of his body.

No need to be forced to fight, no need to kill again.

Vlad III just disliked evil, not the love of blood as in the legend.

The madness that had haunted him for so long was now gone.

"What on earth...have you done?"

Animusfia stood up unsteadily.

The imbalance caused by missing an arm will obviously take some time to get used to.

Animusfia used her remaining right hand to hold onto the Spear of Ouranos that was still embedded in Vlad III's chest.

Only then did Vlad III notice that twisted secret texts were constantly emerging on the irregular crystal spear on his chest.

Like a tadpole, the secret text is constantly twisting and turning, and you can feel the deep ominousness in it just by looking at it.

Just looking at it can cause physical discomfort.

Then the Spear of Uranus glowed brightly, and the secret text dissipated like ignited firewood.

Animusfia pulled out her magic costume.

"What a twisted magic..."

He has not seen much magic, but Animusfia can be sure that magic of this kind in Vlad III's body is definitely not common.

But under the Spear of Ouranos, no matter what kind of magic it is, it cannot maintain its original posture.

The penetration of the Spear of Uranus itself was a part of the magic ritual for Animusfia.

It is used to simulate the sky Ouranos entering the body of Gaia on the earth.

The next thing to do is to be like Ouranos and cut off the power of all other life on earth to continue (reproduce) except himself.

Animusfia may not be able to stop Vlad III's horse from continuing to gallop.

But he can break the reins that bind Vlad III.

Just like Animusfia did before, make the myth happen again.

Treat the spirit body of Vlad III as the [Earth] and insert the [Sky] to cut off the possibility of other [Magic] continuing.

As much as possible, Animusfia does not want to use this trick on male heroic spirits...

Of course, the ordinary Heroic Spirit Animusfia would never have the opportunity to directly pierce the opponent's body with her weapon.

Feeling that the magic power that had been continuously delivered to him disappeared, Vlad III raised his head and looked at Animusfia.

"Did you break the contract that Caster made with the Dragon Witch?"

"Exactly."

"A mortal can actually break the Servant's magic... You are really capable."

"Hahaha...."

Animusfia touched the back of her head with her remaining right hand.

"You're just a caster. How can you compare with me? I'm sure I will still be a caster after I die."

Under the bright morning sun, the spirit body of Vlad III, who had lost his contract, slowly emitted golden particles.

"Your tone is not small..."

Vlad III walked behind Animus Fiad, faced the rising sun, and bathed his whole body in the sunlight.

"But you do have the capital to be so arrogant. Feel free to be proud, I admit, you won this battle."

Vlad III's spirit gradually faded and began to dissipate.

"Please don't take what I said to you before to heart."

Animusfia said.

"Oh? Are those provocative words of yours? You know me very well, and what you said is almost entirely true."

Animusfia shook her head.

"No, although the vampire Dracula is associated with Vlad III, the Archduke of Wallachia."

"But in Romania, Vlad III is a revered hero."

"Um?"

Vlad III looked back at Animusfia in surprise.

"Now, more and more people are realizing that the Grand Duke who once ruled Wallachia was not a monster that sucked human blood."

Vlad III couldn't help but be speechless.

"The legend of blood must come to an end."

Animusfia said slowly.

"That's it... then... Yu's wish can be considered fulfilled. Thank you, traveler in a foreign land——"

Smiling and leaving his last words, Vlad III disappeared under the rising sun.

As Animusfia said,

The inheritance of blood has come to an end.
