Reincarnated into a New World As a Vampire

Chapter 127: Counter



'Fuck it. To think I'll go down like that.' Aldritch thought to himself.

At an accelerated rate, his body regenerated back to its peak self in less than a few seconds. It was clear he had suppressed his regeneration to fool his foe. It was the only way to get some space.

"Damn those bitches, they really used me as test for whatever that was." Aldritch said to himself angrily while picking himself to his feet.

His clothes were as good as ever, just dirtied significantly.

He took just a few seconds to analyse his chances against that being, and no matter what angle he advances from, it all hit dead ends. Without much thought, Aldritch already knew how to handle the situation.

'Though the rest are powerful, there's no point in advancing like some rpg game.' He thought to himself. "To fight fire with fire, Lodestar is our only chance." He said to himself.

He had learnt of some plan to eradicate half the human population, the same humans he needed to draw blood from. There was no way he would allow such a thing to happen.

If only he knew that half the population of the kingdom had already been killed.

Heaving an exasperated sigh, Aldritch closed his eyes as he said, "well? Will someone take down this thing? It has no use now." He spoke out loud, assuming the witches from before could hear him.

There was no response, and for the next five minutes it stayed so until out of nowhere, the barrier faded away and disappeared, allowing Aldritch access to the world again.

At the moment, he knew little as to where exactly he was or how to get back to the capital, if he was even inside the kingdom.

Luckily, he wouldn't have to search long as two people appeared beside him just a few metres away, two women.

Aldritch could tell who they were just by their presence, after all, it was the only logical reason why two strangers would so conveniently appear at such a time.

"If you don't mind pointing me in the right direction." Aldritch said. Even though his voice was soft, it was cold and contained a lingering resentment it sounded like.

"Yes, that is what I have come to do." Helga said.

Naiha assisted her towards Aldritch as it appeared she couldn't hold her own weight.

Using one of her spells, she planned to teleport Aldritch out of there and into the capital. Since she was already strained, the process was a bit slow, but Aldritch remained patient, after all, it would still be far more efficient than travelling the total distance by foot.

"Please, you are our only hope to save this entire world… please." Helga spoke up, her words straining as the toll on her body increased.

"Don't think everything is over just yet." Aldritch said to her in a cold tone that carried intent.

Even though Naiha frowned and disliked the fact that they were going to let Aldritch go, especially as the image of her vision before played clearly in her mind, she knew there was no choice. As for Helga, she could only hope that Aldritch would be able to stop the abyssal entity.

Once the spell fully activated, Aldritch disappeared with a spark of light. In just a second or three, Aldritch appeared back in the capital in a secluded area within the forest. It seemed to be a predestined location that the witches had been using. Anyway, that was not important at the moment. Aldritch himself could confirm he was back in human civilization as he could faintly sense the energies emitted by people all around. These people in fact, were his people, his family of vampires.

Aldritch didn't waste any time, dashing towards the middle walls to find Lodestar so he could face off against the powerful entity he fought just some time ago. There was no telling how much time he had before that thing appeared in the capital.

"I'll need much more for this body to be fully developed." The abyssal entity said to itself after absorbing a stream of blood into its body.

The entire town where it was at that time looked barren and dried up as it had completely sucked the life out of every single human living in that town. Unlike vampires that only sucked blood, this being took both blood and the very life force of the humans, leaving them looking like dried up mummified corpses in clothes when it was done.

The body that had been prepared for Aeress was incomplete after all, and for the abyssal being to be able to use it without any issues, it would need to make it perfect, complete.

At this point, it had eradicated a few villages and two towns. Being able to sense where the living resided, the entity set its eyes for one more town before the capital. The process of feeding wasn't complex; neither was it time consuming. There was no negotiation or dialogue after all.

"Hahahaha, it won't be long now before I'm perfect." The abyssal entity said to itself before leaving for the next town.

"Hmm, a real problem indeed. I'll certainly try to stop this being, but if it becomes more than I can handle, I'll prioritize my own life first." Lodestar said.

"I'd wish for nothing else." Aldritch said to him sincerely.

"Haha… Seems I'll be stretching my bones today, it has truly been a while. I just hope this being is not too powerful, more than you've estimated, if not, my injured body truly won't be able to handle it." Lodestar said with a slight smile on his face.

Despite his words, Aldritch maintained unshakable hope in Lodestar. Even though the both of them would usually spar and it would seem as though Lodestar was giving it his all and even soaking in sweat, it was only because he was limiting himself, and even though he was actually going all out in those fights, it was with his limited strength.

Unlike every other person in Aldritch's family, Lodestar was leagues above them, and in full health could even solo the entire family without breaking much of a sweat.

'Let's see how that thing handles this now.' Aldritch thought to himself, a slight smirk tracing the sides of his lips.

A/N: Hi everyone. My apologies for not updating these past few days. I was suffering from a mild writer's block just before I fell ill. Once I'm back to full strength I'll try to update more steadily. Please understand. Thank you.
