Blood Dragon

a section of the truth

"Guards!" Luke yelled with all his might.There are only two guards on duty outside, but there are dozens of fully armed knights in the castle at the moment.A touch of excitement appeared on his pale face, Ashuruffat came to the door by himself, and now he is looking for death!

The impact of the metal armor rang out.Groups of knights rushed in, forming a semi-encirclement behind Ashrufat.But Ashuruffat didn't seem to see anything.

"Lian, remember what I said? I will never forgive your betrayal! When we meet again, you will find that I am more dangerous than ten crazy dragons. But it seems that your god did not bless you, let You met me again. And you didn't build a castle that ten mad dragons couldn't break."

Ryan's face was pale, and he dropped the cup in his hand forcefully, even though the cup was still filled with undrinked wine.His hand was on the hilt of his sword.In Saint-Jean, all nobles are knights, and this reception did not entertain female relatives, so every nobleman carried weapons with him as usual.Even Luke had a foil sword for show.

"As for the others, including the ones behind me. You decide for yourself. I will count from one to ten, and all those who feel that they have nothing to do with this matter can leave. One...two...three..." While counting, Ashurfat stared at Ryan and Luke standing side by side.Although he had an absolute advantage, the uneasiness in Luke's heart surged overwhelmingly.When Ashurfat's eyes rested on him, he felt the fear of death for a moment.

A gust of water rushed out, making his trousers wet and hot.

"...nine...ten..." Ashuruffat finished counting, but everyone present did not leave.Instead, more guards appeared outside the gate.

"Very good, I have given you a chance to choose. It seems that none of you think you have anything to do with this matter. In this way, no one can say that they are innocent when they are dying." Ashuruffat raised his hand My own sword, the energy of magic is wrapped around the sword, making the sword scream mournfully.No one doubted the origin of the sword, and everyone believed that the sword was captured by him on the battlefield.

"Kill him!" Luke finally came back to his senses, and yelled angrily.After all, Ashurfat is only one person!

Irina was awakened by a rapid knock on the door.

Today she rested very early, but she never fell asleep.During the day, the words of the old man in black robe weighed heavily on her heart like a stone.What am I did wrong?Yes, I shouldn't let Ryan "temporarily" the general, otherwise there would be less trouble.But wasn't it recommended by the vast majority of people in the court meeting at that time?I just follow the crowd!Why put me in charge?And that's just a transition position...

The knock on the door brought her back to reality from this half-asleep state.She touched her bed lamp with her hand, and the bright light immediately illuminated the room.This is one of the gifts Ryan gave him, a magic lamp made by the Church of the True God.It had once been the personal property of a certain Paro nobleman, but it ended up being Lion's trophy and passed it on to him.

"What's the matter?" she asked loudly.

"Your Highness, something is wrong." It was none other than Rowling who spoke outside.She also followed Irina to the mountain area. "Earl Ashurfate, he..."

"What happened to him?" Could it be dead?

"He had a conflict with the Duke of Lane... People who saw it said that the two sides used swords!" Little Rowling's voice was tense and excited.

"what?!"

Irina hurriedly got dressed as fast as she could.how so?Without thinking, she rushed to the courtyard and gathered her followers there.A few minutes later, she led a group of guards and rushed straight to the castle where Ryan was temporarily staying.

The situation was simply terrible. Before entering the gate of the castle, she immediately smelled a strong smell of blood.At the entrance of the main building, there were several corpses lying in a mess, none of them intact.

The situation inside the main building was even worse.The traces of magic burns, stumps and corpses are everywhere, the human body has been hacked, pierced, and cut, and the ground is covered with minced meat, blood, and internal organs. Such a tragic and terrifying scene, if not for her guards on the side Looking at it, she can't help but vomit.

"Your Highness, there is still movement above!" A guard reminded.Fighting the urge to vomit, Irina heard the crash of metal and screams above her.The battle wasn't over yet, the rest were on top of the tower, and she wasn't too late.

She made her way up the spiral steps of the tower.Beheaded corpses can be seen every few steps.Obviously, one side is fighting and retreating, while the other side is chasing after it.How many people did Ashurfat bring?He actually openly attacked another noble under her nose?It's unforgivable...

The end of the spiral staircase is in front of you.Irina made up her mind, she must show the spirit of a queen!She walked in, and the guards behind her all drew their weapons, ready to fight at any time.

In the room on the top floor of the tower, Ashuruffat was standing there, holding a long sword in one hand and Ryan's collar in the other, lifting his whole body into the air.Ryan was still struggling weakly, but the collar tightly strangled his neck, suffocating him and making his struggle more and more weak.Farther away, Luke lay in a corner with a desperate expression, groaning in pain.At this moment, he no longer had his usual demeanor, and even the small glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose were gone.Luke's hand was on his belly—there was a huge gash, and all the internal organs were pouring out.This is fatal!

Luke's proud intelligence failed to save him.Only in the face of pure violence did he reveal his true fragility and uselessness.

"Stop! Ashurfat!" Irina summoned all her courage and ordered loudly. "Let go of Ryan! I order you in the name of the monarch, let him go immediately!"

Ashurfat turned his head slowly, looking at Irina viciously with blood red eyes.Irina suddenly realized that her courage was far less than expected, she took a step back, and her back touched the guard's cold iron armor.For some reason, the moment they saw Ashurfate, everyone instinctively realized one thing——Ashuruffat came alone, and he killed all the people here alone.

"I know you suspect Ryan, but your actions are not allowed! He should be tried, not lynched like you!" Irina said while fighting the fear in her heart.

"This is the trial. I am the plaintiff, the judge, the witness and the executioner!" Ash Rufat's voice clearly reveals his heart, and no dagger is sharper than hatred. "The crime is because of selfish betrayal and murder, and the sentence is death!"

Ashuruffat's gaze rested on Ryan's neck.Due to suffocation, Ryan's struggle has become weaker and weaker.His throat was tightly constricted, and the blue blood vessels were bulging high.This color suddenly moved Ashurfat's heart.

His mouth was close to Ryan's neck, and his sharp teeth violently tore through the fragile skin and cartilage.Blood, warm, sweet and intoxicating blood poured into his mouth along with vitality.

When he dropped the corpse in his hand and turned his head, red liquid dripped from the corner of his mouth protruding from his fangs.And the armor on his body did not know when it had changed shape. It was an armor with a strange and evil shape, as red as blood, and a dark and unclean aura entwined on the armor.

"Vampire!" Luke wailed as if the end of the world was coming, maybe for him, the end had really come.The screams rushed into everyone's ears like dust in the wind.

Ashurfat stared at the trembling Irina with blood-red eyes.

"I am no longer your knight! You are not worthy to be my monarch!" He said every word.Then he walked towards the spiral staircase with the long sword in hand, passing Irina.Shocked by this terrifying scene, Irina's guards got out of the way under high alert, watching his back disappear at the spiral staircase.

……

Ashuruffat stopped in his tracks.

He stood on a small hill outside the town.At this time, it was already late at night, and a small town like Belaron was already silent, everyone was immersed in sleep, and the streets were empty.

He remembered how Thomas had organized his troops here.At that time, the elderly, weak, women and children were all evacuated, and the town became a large-scale military camp.More than a year has passed, and the original barracks have long since disappeared, replaced by simple huts.And Thomas was lying in the dirt forever.

"I'm sorry, General Thomas, I concealed my true identity." Ashuruffat whispered to the night sky, apologizing to Thomas.If Thomas is alive, he should be able to hear his apology.

"Carrie, am I a vampire now?" he asked in his head.He still remembered the smell of blood just now, the smelly and disgusting blood had become so sweet for some reason.

"Yes, master, you have completed the transformation brilliantly. The speed is far faster than my original estimate. You are worthy of being my master." Carrie said in a very happy tone.

"I can feel the horse's still there," continued Carrie. "Call it here, so we can ride away."

It's still there.Ashuruffat thought with some sighs that he came here alone like this at the beginning, and now he has to leave one by one.

Everything is like a dream, only those who died in the dream are so real and so sad.

"Master, the magic energy is reacting!" Carrie warned suddenly.Ashurfat turned around sharply, but saw a familiar figure approaching a position very close to him at some point.This uninvited guest was wearing a light blue sleeveless tulle gown with only a white belt around her waist. Under the moonlight, her bare face and arms looked as white as snow.

Ashuruffat recognized it as the prophetess Faile.
