Chapter 184
Serulis’s jaw dropped .
“Wh-what just happened?”
“Attacks with mass cannot be stopped by raising magic defenses . Because it is physical . ”
The meteors were just heated boulders . They fell and dealt physical damage .
Barriers that were focused on magic defense could then be easily destroyed .
“Th-that may be true, but…”
“Ruck . Serulis doesn’t even understand why you were able to summon twelve meteors at once . ”
Goran said with a laugh .
Serulis was good with a sword, but she was still a newcomer as an Adventurer . She wasn’t used to seeing magic .
“I see . Well, you’ll get used to the idea . ”
“Re-really?”
Serulis looked like she couldn’t believe it .
“Maybe I should make it a little easier to get in . ”
“Thank you, Ruck . ”
I nodded back and then slammed the dust-filled area with Explosion .
It was the strongest one that I could manage .
It converted high-density magic energy into heat in an instant . And the caused it to expand suddenly .
—DDDDOOOOOOOOO
The shock waves were even stronger than the ones caused by the meteors .
The trees that had been torn from their roots now went up in flames .
Even the trees that did not burn were cut down by the shock waves .
Up in the sky, Dorgo swayed a little .
“Now . Let’s charge on in . I bet all but the Arch Vampires are dead . ”
“Un-understood . ”
Goran immediately held Serulis’s arm . I held Grulf and Shia .
Dorgo was diving . If we weren’t careful, we could be thrown off .
“Hahhh . ”
Shia shrieked quietly . Even she had to hold her tail between her legs .
“GGGGGRAAAAA!!!”
Grulf howled and shook .
When we were close to the ground, we could see the damage that the meteors and Explosion had done .
There were broken magic machines . About seventy of them .
And corpses of evil dragons as well .
I didn’t see any dead vampires . I wanted to think it was because they burned up, but you couldn’t be too careful .
And then we found an entrance that seemed to lead underground .

Eric called out in a loud voice .
“They are inside . Keep your guard up!”
“Aye!”
Dorgo stopped just above the ground . And we all quickly jumped off of his back . Nothing else around us moved .
And so we headed towards the entrance . It was locked, but I was able to open it with magic .
At the same time, I fired off a succession of Fireballs for good measure .
After the third one hit, a vampire came running out .
He was covered in flames but his flesh was not burning .
Eric quickly slashed at him, but the vampire dodged the attack .
Goran stepped in and attacked as well, but this too was dodged .
At the same time, the vampire launched a Fireball of his own . It was incredibly quick and very powerful .
I created a magic barrier in the nick of time and shouted .
“It’s no ordinary High Lord! Be careful!”
“We know!”
Eric and Goran continued to attack the vampire with their swords .
Shockingly, the vampire seemed to be on even footing while fighting them both .
Just as I was about to support them with magic, other vampires started to crawl out from all around us .
There had been other hidden entrances to the underground . And now there were nearly a hundred vampires .

“We killed so many, and yet there were this much left!”
“At least there are no machines or evil dragons!”
“Goran, Eric . You deal with him . Serulis, Shia, Grulf . We’ll take down the weak ones . ”
“Understood!”
“Yes!”
“Groof!”
I unsheathed the Devil King Sword and cut into the closest vampire .
Shia and Serulis also started fighting .
There were no lesser vampires . They were a mixture of archs and lords .
My role was to allow Eric and Goran to focus on the fight with the mysterious vampire .
At the same time, I had to support Serulis and the others .
“Grulf, stay close to me . ”
“Groof!”
I watched over the entire scene and unleashed my magic and used my sword where I could .
Serulis and Shia were doing excellent work . They fought bravely against the lords .
Eric and Goran also seemed to be gaining an advantage .
Perhaps they had heard the noise because evil dragons were starting to fly towards us, but Dorgo kept them at bay .
I couldn’t hold back . I used spell after spell to kill the vampires .
And then I saw a lord appear right behind Goran as he fought .

“There!”
Just as the lord appeared, Serulis’s sword flashed .
The lord had moved as mist, but now its head flew in the air . Serulis had predicted its movement, it seemed .
Before the head hit the ground, Serulis swung her sword again and split it into two .
“Thank you!”
“Don’t mention it!”
Goran sounded very happy . It was nice seeing Serulis and Shia grow .
Then, when we had fought long and hard to kill ninety percent of them…
‘Locke! They’ve attacked! We need your help!!’
Kathe’s voice sounded from the bracelet . She did not sound calm .
“I’ll go right now . Eric!”
“Aye, leave the rest to us!”
“We’ll follow you as soon as we are finished here . ”
Eric moved away from the mysterious vampire . The vampire tried to pursue him, but Goran blocked him .
Then a lord appeared and attacked Goran, but Serulis cut him down .
In the meantime, I touched Eric’s shield and sent magic into it in order to activate the teleport .
And then I jumped into it . Grulf followed me .
I arrived in the water dragon settlement . We burst out of the shed where the magic circle had been placed .
From above the settlement, an evil dragon looked at us as it flew in the sky .
