Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

Of course, there are ways to speed up this process, namely with alchemy-made items of various degrees and ranks, but those can most of the time only be afforded by the rich, anyone below them has to just wait and suck it up.

Gradus had used his dog as a bait and let it die in front of the Imp, only for him to decide to kill the Imp off at long last.

p However, the Imp was smarter than he thought, it quickly predicted his spear falling over his head as he rolled to the left and kicked Gradus\' stomach with his slender leg.

CLAASH!

"Agh!"

Gradus gritted his teeth as he was forced to step back, only for his spear to move swiftly, chasing down the Imp.

"GRYA!"

The Imp tripped over the floor accidentally due to his clumsiness, helping it avoid the upcoming spear that almost pierced its head. It was a lucky bastard, but that was better for me, more EXP for me as well, if I don\'t touch the Imp at all nor Eleanora do it, I will only earn half, so I cannot let that happen.

I quickly grabbed another well-polished stone from my pocket and fired it towards the Imp\'s using my Qi and reinforcing it with Throwing Technique. The powerful stone hit the Imp\'s forehead strongly, making it bleed from his nose and black out in a second. It wasn\'t dead though, but Gradus\' spear made sure to kill it, as he pierced the Imp\'s neck and killed it on the spot.

CLASH!

"Phew… Good work, Blake!" he said.

"Let\'s take down the other two." I said.

"Yeah!"

Gradus quickly rushed towards the other two annoying Imps. Their anger and fury had increased the more of their members died, as if the anger itself fueled their total strength, they only grew stronger but wilder, this was part of the Demons special abilities.

Demons are supernatural living beings from another dimension, the power they have is incredible and some of them can have many innate abilities.

Amongst the many they possess; the power of Berserk Mode is one of them. Any demon that is utterly outraged will lose their temper and go wild like a beast, but this will also multiply their physical strength greatly.

Sometimes they would become so wild that they would attempt to kill even friends, but these two were well aware who were their true enemies, and attacked the hunters relentlessly, the two had already destroyed their small shields, and were approaching to finish them off for good, something I simply couldn\'t let it happen.

Gradus was faster than me though, as he quickly kicked one of the Imps away from the group of Hunters that were weakened by resisting their wild blows for too long.

"RAA!"

CLAAASH!

"GRAA!"

The Imp, however, decided to leap hover his body and ravage his head, taking away his long hair furiously. Gradus was a strong and hardy man, as he quickly shook off the Imp from his body and kicked it again, only for the Imp to bite his leg with its sharp teeth.

CLASH!

"Fuck!"

FLASH!

However, a flash of darkness reached him as Eleanora showed up, wielding a spear we had stolen from the Imps back then, she pierced the Imp\'s back several times in consecutive blows, making it groan in pain as it tried to fight back.

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH CLASH!

"GRAAAA!"

Meanwhile, Gradus had no time to rest nor help Eleanora, the other Imp quickly sneaked behind him while groaning loudly and angrily as if it was attempting to make Gradus recognize his existence. The hunter quickly twisted his body as his spear intercepted the furious Imp\'s knife, clashing against it only for the hard knife to end up slicing in half his wooden spear.

CLAASH!

"S-Shit!"

Gradus gritted his teeth as the Imp kicked him in the balls angrily, making him groan in pain and threw him into the ground to finish him off. Despite how strong he was, he had grown old.

But I was there to prevent his death, in these small splits of a second, I was already moving towards the Imp, as I raised my Cursed Spear and infused it with Mana.

"Dragoon Spear Technique: Triple Thrust!"

"GRAA?!"

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

I moved my spear at an increasing speed, so fast it generated illusions as if there were many other spears moving across the wind, each of the spears clashed against the Imp in an instant, leaving three large holes on his head and slaying it instantly.

BOOM!

His motionless body fell over the floor as I looked back at the last Imp, which was groaning in pain as Eleanora smiled maliciously, piercing his entire body slowly, bit by bit.

I wasn\'t against her sadistic tendencies, but she was doing something unnecessary, the cries of an Imp will attract more Imps at the end… even if that\'s potentially more EXP for me, I have to take into consideration the lives of the people here and my own too. If we fight too many Imps, we might die before we can even reach the village.

"Eleanora, kill it already." I said.

"Ah! U-Understood!" she said, as she used her sharp heels to crush the Imp\'s head, splattering its brains all over the floor.

"GRAH…!"

SPLAT!

With that last sound, tranquility took ahold of the entire battlefield, as everyone was gasping for air, even I was extremely tired, and I quickly sat down over the floor, looking at the Grimoire.

It had only been roughly 6 minutes since I used the card, this long fight only lasted that much… unbelievable, it was too short for how long it felt.

But on the bright side, I had leveled up.
