The System of a Vampire

31 Firming the Grip continued

Draig stepped through the gates with his troops behind him looking at the shocked Guilders standing around before cracking a small smile.

"Slaughter them" ordered Draig as he continued walking forward into the main building, he was going to make an example out of this Guild.

He encountered many of the older Guilders but with a swipe of his hand flames engulfed them burning their bodies slowly, he was feeling gratified at this scene knowing that his training was paying off.

Those who had witnessed the scene were petrified with fear now that the effect of Apex Predator was taking effect, this allowed Draig to carry forth effortlessly as the screams of battle echoed outside the building. This was not just a battle this was a one sided slaughter, his group had become an amalgamation of the different classes due to the skills inside the Skill stones removing the class requisite. This became more apparent as the casualties on the Guilders side steadily grew while the injuries on his side remained minimal.

Draig made his way to the biggest room drawing his rapier, he had been learning about the intricacies of the weapon he had refined from the blood of Guilders and found it had several odd quirks. The blood of those he had used to refine it retained their abilities just as it did if he consumed them allowing for a few interesting surprises for any who would cross paths with him.

Kicking in the door Draig saw that Ibacus was actually the rotund man from the little festivity he had been brought to by Zarra.

"You know why I am here, don't you" stated Draig smoothly

"Because I killed a few of your little group of traitors, don't think I am not aware of the tricks you monster employ" answered Ibacus as he pulled a mighty war hammer from his back

"I am sure I don't know what you mean by tricks" retorted Draig as he readied himself

The two stared at each other for a moment longer before Ibacus dashed towards Draig with a speed that was not natural to his size as he swung his hammer intending to leave Draig a smear on the ground but it was beyond his expectations that his hammer would just pass through Draig as if he wasn't there.

"This is what I mean by your tricks filth" yelled Ibacus activating a skill that caused his skin to turn red and his muscles to bulge

Draig slashed rapidly at Ibacus leaving small lacerations causing him to frown, he was aware he was no sword user the weapon just felt awkward in his hands. Suddenly bringing it up to block he found that the boosted strength of Ibacus shattered the blade easily but Draig still felt no loss, his best weapons were his claws.

Slashing the enraged Guild master Draig was now leaving deep gouges instead of the the little laceration left by the sword, an added bonus was the festering of the flesh from these swipes. Draig finally received a hit sending him flying out of the building followed closely by the berserk Ibacus who proceed to stomp Draig into the ground.

At least that was his intention but the Vampire burst into a murder of crows and the world began to distort.

"You know when I heard I was selected by the lottery to gain a system it was the happiest moment of my life, I would finally be able to join a Guild but you and your counterparts saw fit to blacklist me and ban me from society" echoed Draig's voice all around

Ibacus swung wildly trying to hit the birds but it was a futile effort.

"You claimed I was a monster but the one you see before you is one of your own making, I could have lead any guild to greatness with the opportunities my system has granted me but then again I should be thanking you" echoed Draig's voice again forcing Ibacus to activate another skill that set his body aflame before the flames spread out in a sphere consuming the crows but it was not as he thought as the voice continued.

"I could have ended up a weakling like you" said Draig as his voice came from behind Ibacus forcing the man to turn around quickly just in time to receive a set of claws to his throat causing him to widen his eyes.

"Your not even good enough to be food for the likes of me, your like a diseased pig who was slaughtered but rejected for sale. Everything that you had worked for will now belong to me and this Guild of yours will never see another day.... it's been blacklisted" stated Draig as he watched the life fade from the man's eyes.

Turning around to see what his casualties would be he was pleasantly surprised to see no losses just a few mutilations but that could be fixed with a few of his potions. Draig then noticed Goeki walking towards him.

"Lord we have prisoners" reported Goeki causing Draig to raise an eyebrow

"I thought I said to slaughter them" stated Draig looking at the Flame Knight

"They surrendered after seeing their casualties stacking up" reported Goeki lowering his had preparing to be reprimanded

"Very well bring them with us and keep them guarded closely we will make use of them" responded Draig as he walked out to see the number of prisoners.

A staggering one hundred and fifty Guilders sat restrained and disarmed surrounded by summons, Draig nodded at this situation catching the eyes of the Guilders they trembled, this was a being who brought down their Guild master. Knowing they had no way of countering this monster before them they lowered their heads in subjugation.

Draig looked please at this sight and walked towards the gate where Tina and the hunters were waiting patiently.

"Clean out everything, pick the corpses for anything as well. We will leave nothing behind, when you are finished help escort the prisoners with Goeki" ordered Draig passing by the hunters to return to the farm

'This is the first show of power for you fools' thought Draig thinking of the Guild Association and it's members
