Chapter 1223: Dark Region (7)

Upon hearing the snarls of the bugbears, Rhode couldn’t be bothered to turn around. The underground creatures were naive, sinister, and crude. As for these idiots who would step into a minefield for the sake of following that dangling carrot in front of them, they were the most unworthy of cannon fodders in the eyes of dark elves. Therefore, facing the interrogations of the bugbears, Rhode remained silent, extended his hand, and snapped his fingers.

“Scram!”

Witnessing Rhode’s gesture, Angelina widened her eyes. The petite vampire swept an ice-cold glance at the bugbears who strode toward them and let out a grunt. Along with Angelina’s bellow, the air around them instantly turned cold. The bugbears who heard her voice revealed furious expressions. They stretched out their thick arms to reach for the weapons on their waist, apparently to teach this young lady a lesson and let her experience what true agony and nightmare were...

But just as the bugbears clutched the hilts of their weapons, their faces instantly became that of beached fish—gasping for air, staring with wide-open eyes, and rooted to the spot. Not only that, but their complexions also became increasingly red as though invisible hands were choking their throats. Even though the muscles on their bodies trembled, they couldn’t move an inch. This peculiar behavior seemed odd to everyone. At the next moment, Angelina extended and swung her right arm as though she were driving away flies.

Boom!

Along with this action, the four to five bugbears who froze to the spot flew out of the exit as though their legs were equipped with rockets. They crashed heavily onto the ground outside like a big pile of mud. No, it wasn’t ‘like’—they actually turned into a big pile of mud under the effects of the vampire’s magical spell. Their skeletons and muscles were crushed into bits by an unknown force, turning into worthless residue. The bugbears lay on the ground like flat, deflated balloons. The bewildered crowd stepped forward in uncertainty, sizing up the revolting corpses of the bugbears. No one dared to say a word. Their eyes were filled with terror. In this city, they had witnessed many more terrifying things, but they were usually committed by dark elves. Due to that reason, as the crowd saw a non-dark elf disintegrating an enemy using a crueler method than the dark elves, they were immediately petrified of Rhode’s group. The crowd initially decided to stir trouble with Rhode’s group and pry their intention. But now, it seemed like everything would be in vain if they couldn’t even protect themselves.

Hearing the clamors outside the inn, Rhode nodded in satisfaction. Angelina was truly suitable in negotiating with dark elves. As a vampire, she was born to look down upon the dark elves. This kind of heartfelt contempt and the formidable strength of hers were the best weapons to strike a blow at the dark elves’ confidence. This time, Rhode was here to pick a fight. But he wasn’t suitable to accomplish it by himself. With his identity, if he were the one who picked a fight, it would mean giving the dark elves a whole lot of respect. Judging from this point, Angelina was the best candidate for the job...

Rhode swept a glance at the petite vampire who stood up. Upon detecting his gaze, Angelina revealed a proud smile at him. They exchanged looks with each other and after Rhode drank the last sip of wine, he also stood to his feet.

“Alright, I’m gonna head up to rest. Anyone want to join me?”

“M-Me.”

After chugging down the plain water, Icy Snow stood up hurriedly. On the other side, Anne didn’t say a word, but waved the half-eaten bone in her hand at Rhode. Despite that, Rhode understood what she meant. As for the rest, they were either too lazy to move or decided to watch the show that ensued. The members who came with Rhode weren’t fools either. Of course, they knew what Rhode was going to do. Cassidy stood to her feet, looked at Rhode with a slightly terrified expression, and ascended the stairs quickly. It was apparent that even though she wanted to rest, she wasn’t willing to ‘rest’ with Rhode.

Gazing at Cassidy’s back, Rhode shrugged helplessly. He extended his arm and caressed Icy Snow’s hair.

“Let’s go.”

“Okay.”

Hearing Rhode’s response, Icy Snow unveiled a joyous expression. She looked at Rhode and nodded with might, stretching out her hand to hold his right hand as they took the staircase. Shortly after, the inn lobby restored its tranquility. Angelina sat in front of the table and fiddled with the wineglass in her hand. Her scarlet eyes were filled with excitement and murderous intent. Meanwhile, Nell concealed herself in the shadows as usual, scanning the streets in alertness. Mini Bubble Gum shifted her posture and lifted her head to stare at the delighted Icy Snow, who followed Rhode up the stairs.

“Tsk, what a little girl. She looks so happy being together with Leader. How can a brat like her understand the things adults do with one another. How stupid—the fun has yet to come!” Mini Bubble Gum criticized, pounding the buttons on the handheld gaming device. “I choose you, Charizard!”

The inn boss shivered, curling up behind the counter. He understood why these humans dared to come here. These humans weren’t as foolish as he had imagined. But even so, the inn boss revealed a worrisome expression because he felt like they came with ill intentions. They magnified their strength wantonly with the identity of a non-dark elf. This would definitely gather the attention of the proud dark elves. As soon as the dark elves’ patrol team arrived, huge troubles would surely follow.

As the saying ‘the more one was afraid of something happening, the bigger the chance it would happen’ went, the moment the shivering inn boss prayed that nothing would happen, metallic clangs echoed from the outside. A few seconds later, five well-equipped dark elves strode into the inn in large strides. Judging from their equipment, they were apparently the patrol team of this city. Despite that, Angelina couldn’t recognize them. It seemed like they weren’t the same batch of patrols that led Rhode’s group here. What surprised everyone was that behind the five dark elf warriors stood a female dark elf in a mage’s robe, which was rarely seen in patrol teams, as advanced mage were important characters and seldom showed up on such occasions.

“We received a report—is someone causing trouble here?”

After entering the inn, the five dark elves blocked the entrance. The dark elf mage asked and sauntered forward, staring at the patrons with arrogance. Upon detecting her ice-cold stare, the inn boss couldn’t help but tremble in fear. Despite that, the others were unmoved. Nell remained silently concealed in the shadow. Her skills ensured that she wouldn’t be discovered by the dark elves. Meanwhile, Mini Bubble Gum knitted her brows and fiddled with the handheld gaming device busily as though the game were at its critical juncture. She didn’t even lift her head to look at the dark elves. Angelina placed the wineglass back on the table, widening her scarlet eyes at the dark elves and revealing a proud smile.

“Ssss———!”

Upon realizing Angelina’s gaze, the female mage couldn’t help but suck in a deep breath of cold air. She sensed pain as though the blood in her body were flowing in reverse. Even though she received teachings from her family and experienced agonizing scenarios, she sensed overwhelming fear and pressure from Angelina’s gaze. Despite that, she stifled the uncertainty with her strong willpower and felt utterly insulted by that instance of fear.

This emotion should be her enemy’s, not hers.

“Stand up! Answer my question!”

The infuriated female mage snarled, drew out a three-headed-snake whip from her waist, and pointed at Angelina, using this method to conceal that moment of timidity and withdrawal. But Angelina apparently wasn’t having any of it. The corners of her lips perked up into a smile and she stared at the female mage as though she were a slave. Then, she spoke.

“Seems like you lowly, dark-skinned creatures who are only capable of digging holes in the underground are indeed ignorant. How dare you speak to me in this manner? Are you ready to accept your punishment for offending me, your superior?”

“What did you say!?”

The dark elves were stunned. They didn’t expect to be defied in their lifetime. Besides, this was the city of dark elves. To be mocked and humiliated in public like this was intolerable for any dark elf!

“You shameless surface pig, how dare you...!”

Upon hearing Angelina’s words, the female mage bellowed and raised the snake whip. She chanted under her breath and along with the chanting of a curse, the snake whip in her hand flickered in a magical radiance. Within a few moments, she would coalesce strong magical powers and inflict eternal pain and suffering on the enemy until the enemy screamed to her death.

But despite that, Angelina was quicker.

The female mage witnessed a red flash in front of her. At the next moment, the magical torrent within her control erupted. Angelina flitted across in a red burst of lightning, aiming straight at the five dark elves behind the female mage. A dazzling, eye-catching brilliance erupted. In the blink of an eye, blood splattered from the bodies of the five dark elves like fountains spraying into midair. Their streams of blood coalesced into the shape of blades that swooped down and slashed at them. Along with deep, thunderous rumbles, the five heavily-armored dark elves followed in the bugbears’ footsteps. Before they let out a shriek, they were pierced in the chest by the bloody swords and flew out of the inn.

The abrupt change in situation baffled the female mage. She felt the magical powers coalescing in her hand completely losing control as they flowed in reverse inside her body. Her vision swayed and turned indistinct as though the world were spinning. The moment she gasped for air and shuddered, she realized that she was already screaming.

“Listen up, you ugly and lowly dark elf.”

Angelina stood by the entrance of the inn, grabbed the female mage’s neck with her right hand, and dragged her outside the inn. Her scarlet eyes glinted in a mysterious, yet mesmerizing flash.

“You rats who are only capable of digging holes in the underground have no rights to intervene in our affairs. Before a mighty vampire, your shameless and worthless race isn’t even worthy of a mention! If you think you can fool us with your wisdom that is worse than pigs, I will give you a taste of a vampire’s wrath. I will make sure you sink into the fear of blood and death, never able to free yourself! This is your deserved lesson! Now, feel my wrath!”

Angelina spoke, her eyes glinting brightly in a red brilliance. She clenched her right hand abruptly.

Crack.

The severed female mage’s head fell and rolled. Fresh blood spurted from her neck, staining the pitch-black ground. Angelina swept an ice-cold glance at her surroundings. She threw her hand up abruptly and at the next second, the headless corpse flew into the air and exploded in a loud bang.

The surroundings fell into complete silence.

Shortly after, loud, high-pitched screams broke out.
