How To Be A Demon lord: The Former Hero's Journey As A Demon Lord!

Chapter 39 How To Begin A Purge

Alucard watched his master cast the [Day Breaker] spell and he couldn't be more proud! Floid has come a long way and it was obvious that Dragonnel wasn't holding back at all in teaching Floid all that he needed to know! With the way things are going, Floid might actually be ready before the rest of the seven virtues appeared! Alucard could only hope so.

Floid kept on pumping Mana into the spell and he made sure that every single bit of the town was completely covered in darkness! He checked his Mana core and he was happy that it didn't crack from that strain. Floid used this to test just how far he had come and it seems like his core has grown very strong.

[MP: 520,000]

Floid's core was now able to hold this much Mana inside it, and that means that it will also be able to allow a lot of Mana to pass through it without breaking! Floid finished creating the [Day Breaker] and he could hear that there was absolutely no noise inside the town.

The townspeople were in shock. They didn't ever think that anyone would be able to take down the [Night Banisher] and now they had no idea what was going on! But the one thing that they all had in mind was 'The Vampires can come into the town'. Nobody could even dare to move! None of them dared to go out of their house to even check if there were vampires! The entire place was like a ghost town!!

Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack!

Then suddenly, the sounds of footsteps start to echo in the night as many vampires began to walk down the main street. The footsteps were not meant to be this loud, but due to the silence of the town, they echoed like a gong!

Five hundred vampires were walking behind their vampire lord. They all had black cloaks covering their entire body and their red eyes peeking through their black hoods gleamed in the moonlight. Dracula licked his fang as he looked around the ghost town. He could smell something delicious. There are humans everywhere! There was so much blood that he was almost salivating! It was time for the vampires to have a feast.

The vampires in his coven were all here for more than just the purge, they were here for revenge as well. The humans in this town burnt and killed many of their brothers and sisters and the vampires would never let that go!

This was one thing that demons and humans had in common. Demons also loved to get revenge! They loved to see their enemies cry and beg as they cut them down for the transgressions they committed! The only difference in the way humans and demons get revenge is that demons don't hide the joy they feel when they are killing their enemies. Humans would always feel like they have given up a part of themselves to get their revenge. Humans always act so self-righteously. 'Oh, I killed someone, I've lost my humanity'. Ha! What nonsense! Demons don't feel like they have lost something when they kill someone. You killed them because you wanted to! You watched them cry and bleed and die because you liked it! There is no other way to live than for you to take responsibility for your own actions and live with them!

Dracula put his hand up and all the demons there immediately straightened before they all vanished in a huge swarm of bats! It only took one second before pandemonium began!

"Ahhh!! Wait! Wait! Please, not my son!"

"Get out! Help! Help!"

"There's a vampire! Its - it's a vampire!!"

"Run! Run! Don't look back, just run!"

The screams of the humans running and trying to fight back against the vampires were like music to Dracula's ears. He was just walking slowly along the street as he saw people falling left and right like dominos! Some of the people there tried to get their blessed crosses or holy water to stop the vampires, but the materials only felt like hot water to the vampires. It hurt a little but it was not enough to get them to stop!

The only thing that was keeping the vampires out was the [Night Banisher] spell as well as a few blessed crosses around the town and Floid already took care of both those things! Dracula closed his eyes and enjoyed the sounds of the people screaming before he put his hand to the side and a long red sword formed out of his spatial space. This was the vampire lord's sword, Mythril. It gleamed with bloodthirst as Dracula walked down the street of dying and screaming humans.

None of the vampires allowed the humans to even get near him. Dracula didn't care for the people here. He only had eyes for one man. The priest in the church, Artus!

....

Artus was also shocked as he looked outside the window of his room. There was a bleeding succubus on his bed but he ignored her as he quickly grabbed his cloak and started to power walk out of the room! What was going on!? Did someone actually break the [Night Banisher] spell!? That isn't meant to be possible! It would take hundreds of mages to do that! Artus saw that many nuns and priests were also looking outside the window in shock. They also couldn't believe what was happening outside. Artus ignored them as he moved to the exit of the church. If something like this is happening, then that means that the vampires are going to start coming into the town again! And if the vampires have gained back their courage, then it can only be because of one reason. The demon lord is here!

The center of the town where the church was located was a different story compared to the edge of the town. There were some knights in the church that was at the center of the town. These knights were S-class and they were able to put up a fight against the vampires that came to that area. Five of the vampires that tried to attack the church were already dead because of the holy weapons that the knights were using. The knights formed a protective line in front of the church entrance and made sure that none of the vampires would even be able to get close!

Then suddenly a figure appeared and dashed out from behind the vampires and straight for the line of S-class knights! The first knight to die didn't even know what happened! Dracula just pulled back his sword and swung it forward and the man was cut in half! Dracula was not the strongest vampire alive, but he was the son of Alucard! S-class knights were not a challenge for him at all! Many of the other knights there saw the death of their comrade and they immediately charged for Dracula! He dashed to the left and started to destroy them one after the other!

The other vampires there roared in support as they saw their lord destroying the knights with only one or two slashes! His sword was far sharper than the knights' sword and their armor couldn't stop him at all even with the blessings there! These weren't the people that Dracula was afraid of! They couldn't do any sort of harm even with all the blessings that they have covering their weapons and armor!!

[Ray of Light]!!!

Dracula's eyes widened as a skill was activated right beside him! He looked to the side and saw a giant ray of white light flying towards him! Dracula immediately jumped away from the light, but even after dodging it, the light still managed to leave blisters on his right hand! Dracula grimaced as Artus walked out of the church! This is the man Dracula did not want to fight! The man hailed as the Healing Hero! He had more blessed skills and artifacts than an entire church combined! If there is anyone here that could kill Dracula then it is this man!

"Do not fear him, brothers! He is nothing but a monster that will soon be vanquished!"

Artus shouted this as he came to stand in front of the knights and faced all the vampires! All the knights felt themselves being filled with courage as their wounds started to heal and most of them that weren't dead stood up again! In the eyes of all the knights there, Artus was a holy man that came to protect the sanctuary of the lord! They would fight beside him no matter what!
