Chapter 1545: The Mysterious Power Of The Human Empire's Royalty

-----

The war has begun and Elfina, Fiere, and Floresse, alongiside Luminous remained in the back. Luminous was still working even in the back, as he was conjuring long-ranged healing magic in the wounded elf troops, saving dozens of lethally wounded elves. Their numbers were way lower than the humans, preserving their lives was more important as well. However, Luminous also unleashed beams of light against the human army, defeating a dozen per beam. It was not the most efficient, but this was much as he could do from the long distance.

Meanwhile, Elfina and Floresse were left speechless by what was happening, despite their underwhelming quantity of soldiers compared to the humans, things were looking surprisingly in their favor. Kireina and Sol were incredibly strong. As if it wasn't enough of a showcase of power for Sol to unleash an Overpowering Sun against their foes, Kireina was using all her mighty magic and Skills to make an easy meal to all the soldiers she met. She had even slain a Prince in a matter of less than five minutes, and suddenly somehow turned his staff into a floating killing machine that has killed over a hundred soldiers already by using the exact same magic the prince used before.

And not only that, but Kireina's strange new Skill that her dagger got named [Sharpness Enhancement] was amazing, she ended using it over all the soldiers and even Sol, enhancing the power of their sharp weapons severely. They were even able to pierce through the hard armor of their foes more commonly, and even critical attacks happened quite frequently, resulting in a sudden lethal wound that killed the foes easily. Although almost a hundred Elves have been lethally wounded by now and around a dozen had died after an hour since the beginning of the war, the rest were being treated by Luminous.

Death of troops was something expected, the elf warriors went to war knowing well that today their long lives might come to an end. Many of them having lived over three hundred years, they had little regrets in life and even in the bitter death of war, they found solace amongst the cries and prays of their comrades before their passing. Many elves lived so long they got tired of living, a way to die honorably protecting their land and their descendants was more than they could had ever asked for.

However, as they had already taken into consideration the loses, Elfina and Floresse looked with contempt at the battle. Kireina and Sol really made a big difference.

"Incredible, Elfina, your Summons are really doing it… I think they might have already killed over a thousand humans in this hour… but there are still nine thousand more. They're moving around and might try to reach the walls. Can Luminous barrier resist enough?" Floresse asked.

"Yes, it can." Said Luminous. "As long as I am here I won't let them step any further into the city. Don't worry."

"There's a way to get a more premature victory without even having to kill all the enemy soldiers though." Said Elfina.

"Is there?" Floresse asked.

"Isn't it obvious? If we can manage to kill the Emperor who is sitting all the way on the back… The troops would lose their commander, leader, and governors. Some might still charge forward, but the majority will feel completely discouraged." Said Elfina.

"Oh, that's smart coming from you, little niece." Said Floresse.

"I-I am not stupid!" Elfina sighed while crossing her arms. "Kireina, Sol… I am counting on you two. Summon Enhancement!"

Elfina suddenly conjured Summon Enhancement once more, increasing all the stats of her Summons by over +40% now as the Skill had leveled up once, increasing the bonus to all stats even more. Kireina and Sol immediately felt stronger and more vigorous, as they continued unleashing their storming magical attacks and destructive and crushing physical attacks.

Meanwhile, in the back of the human army, the Emperor stood over the body of his dead Black Wyvern, still shocked by what that Hero had done. However, he had yet to step over and fight, as he thought it would ruin the fun. He wanted to see the elves despair in a good seat after all. Although he was incredibly mighty as a warrior, he had already sent his children. Some more worthless than others as people, but they were all grossly strong.

One of them died, but he barely cared. His children were all conceived for the sole reason of becoming his weapons. The power of the inheritance of the skills of heroes was very strong, these accessories were truly incredible. However, they had a strange side effect that became more prominent as the generations continued being born. Their skin would turn pale as candlewax, and they would begin being born with sharp red eyes, just like the ancient Vampires that once made the accessories the humans use for the inheritance of their skills to their offspring.

This was something called the [Curse of Blood] and was an after effect of dozens of generations being born with inherited skills through the power of these accessories made out of the power and blood of ancient extinct Vampires that the mothers wore. Slight weakness to sunlight, and the crave for blood became more and more prominent in the royal family of the Empire. However, there were greater side effects such as increased physical strength and immense magical talent. Amongst other more macabre, demon-like powers some of the more talented princes and princesses began to awaken… of course, their weaknesses could be easily mitigated through magical accessories for sunlight and the like, but their power was notorious.

And above all, these "humans" couldn't even be considered true humans anymore. As if the legacy of the terrifying vampires that once dominated part of this world as an evil race that tried to devour even the demons, now the humans carried their legacy due to their own greed for trying to acquire their powers. The Emperor, since he was born, that developed even greater Skills than others of his family members.

Blood Energy emerged from the palm of his left hand, he conjured a strange [Blood Art], generating countless rays of light that flew into the distance, suddenly reaching his children.

"Vampiric Awakening."

FLASH!

And then, the princes were finally allowed to go loose.

"Go on, my children, massacre, devour, satiate your thirst. Today, we feast."
