Chapter 2042 2042. Walked Right By

Because the arrow had exploded with light mana in a place where lots of darkness mana had been, there was a clear effect. Many stones had been eroded over time and now lacked the darkness mana that had ebbed in to the stone becoming a part of it. losing that, had caused them to crumble. 

Walls were gone causing the entire room to feel unstable and unsafe. The same was said for the bodies of vampires that had been used as food or sustenance for the twisted elder vampire. They had been reduced to nothing but ash. Including the two enslaved vampire maids that had been turned to ash as well. 

The vampire as a race had a weakness to light. They also didn\'t walk outside in the daylight for that reason. But it felt wrong that the two had been enslaved, and forced to remain weak so long. Just so that they could be used as disposable tools for the twisted elder vampire to create battle armor. 

But none of that kept Walker\'s focus like the remains of the twisted elder vampire. 

"The blood armor kept you alive." Walker was not sure he was actually seeing this. He felt that this was all wrong. The arrow had definitely exploded after piercing the vampire in question. This messed up and evil creature should have perished. 

The garbled response was nothing that could be said to be intelligence. There appeared to be no light in the remaining eye of the twisted elder vampire. His entire body was basically fragments of what it should be instead of ash as the others was. 

The last but of what had made this thing a vampire appeared to have been forced away with the pain of being beaten by the humans he called cattle. But the lower races that he believed were just there to be played with as food so that he could grow his army and empire. 

"If he\'s alive they aren\'t free yet." Su spoke first. She had been the first one to stand up and walk to be beside Walker. Her clear anger etched on her face. 

The wrath that a dragon could show was something that many would understand as a reason not to attempt to antagonize one at all. But Su, was half dragon. She had enough of that wrath to be able to make this face. One that could strike fear in to many people\'s eyes just by glancing at it. Compared to her normal calm demeanor, this was shocking enough to witness for walker. 

"We aren\'t the ones to end it. They are. They already started to break free." Remey pushed Su and Walker to the side. 

There were multiple enslaved vampires walking toward them. They were shaking as they did so. Their legs almost unable to hold them up, but simply using their sheer will to enable their movements. 

Years of neglect had weakened them. Years of being forced to take care of this monster in the place that their honored and noble vampires had once sat. it had been eating at them for too long for any one person to comprehend. Now, they felt those chains loosening. As this monster started to perish, there was the right amount of freedom needed to break the chains entirely. 

"This might not be the best weapon for you to hold, but my eternal codex has some light mana in it right now." Walker channeled his mana and watched the eternal codex become a slim dagger. Perfect for piercing and injecting mana within something. 

The nearest enslaved vampire grasped it. Her arms fell lower before two more grabbed her hands as well. They all needed the strength to hold it even though Walker could have held ten more without any worries. It just showed him how weak they had become over this time. 

All of them united themselves while the party watched. Plunge that dagger in to the monster that had taken their freedom. It was a somber but brilliant display of freedom. Even with the light mana harming their hands, they still pierced the twisted elder vampire\'s heart to end his life and free everyone.

The roars of victory from the battle field as the titan vampire bats were made to stop struggling by the renewed connections with their enslaved vampire tamers. The following roars from every one of the genesis forces that had gathered. 

This signal of victory was met by the tears escaping every enslaved vampire\'s eyes. 

"I am going to send out some orders to begin bringing monster bodies to feed these vampires. They need blood and the monsters harmed by the water flooding things earlier, well, they should be put to use helping others rather than rotting, don\'t you think?" 

Giul\'s slowness as he moved to use a communication crystal and walk away was from the usage of the legendary purifying light arrow. It was an arrow he might never be able to replicate. One he might not be able to fire again. The drawback of using it with so much mana had injured him and everyone. But he could sense that he had used nearly every bot of his mana in that shot. 

Putting that on top of his injuries from fighting the twisted elder vampire, he felt weak. He had not felt this weak in a long time. He needed the time to set himself right. To be able to grasp his plans moving forward. He had a great deal to protect now. He should never feel weak. 

"Yes, a very good job clearing the only obstacle preventing me from entering the vault within the castle. I recommend you cease your pursuit. You will not be able to stop my goals from being realized." The sudden deep voice caused everyone to freeze. Even the castle and the air felt as if they were afraid to be, let alone exist. 

The flash of dark armor that appeared to pass the party before leaving the room was too fast. Too powerful. But Walker knew very well that it was the very being that they were pursuing. That they had just seen a glimpse of the real strength behind the demon lord. 

Just as it had appeared, the pressure was gone and everyone could breathe again. Beyond that, the quests that had appeared were all being completed as the vampire race had been freed. The system had even given them a new title. 

\'The title, vampire race savior has been given to all that participated in the battle to rescue the vampire race. 

\'Vampire race savior

As one who battled the worst and darknest monster that ever was born from a vampire, the title as a vampire race savior will assist in the bonds between you and the vampire race. It will also allow you to better understand their cultures and more…\'

The title was simple. It boasted a lot of benefits for those that wished to bond and learn about the vampire. Especially their unique magics, runes, and forging techniques. All of that would be dealt with in time though. None of the party could think of the titles and quests at all. They had just felt something that made them feel much weaker than ever before. 

"That was the demon lord. He walked by us like we were nothing." Remey smashed a hand in to the ground. The stone cracking slightly in her anger. 

"He did, and we couldn\'t even see him properly. What training do we need?" Su spoke to herself. But she also spoke for everyone. Midnight just growled. Her eyes sharp. As if she was expecting another threat to appear. 

"Gil, do what you were going to do. We will go to the vault and see what we can figure out. Regardless of our injuries, we are still needed. The vampires are safe for now and the monsters out there should all be dead and gone. So, let\'s focus on what we can do for now." 

Walker had sensed Gil\'s emotions from where he stood near the entrance of this hall. He felt the very same way that Walker did. Like he was too weak. Therefore, Walker spoke right to him and made sure that they could steel themselves. Focus on the one thing that they had to do to ensure that they could keep moving forward.
