The dragon's harem

Chapter 674 Counter Attack

CRACK! Arad landed beside Meryem and Grandma Shir, "A vampire?" He looked at the smoking corpse.

"Person bug, dead," Grandma Shir smiled.

"There was another attack at Agnar's house. He dealt with the vampire, but I can hear them attacking everywhere." Arad shifted into his half-dragon form, "Tens in Alina, and even more in the villages spread around us. I can feel some even attacking the bandits outside my land,"

Before, Arad's magic could only expand into four Kilometers around him which was his domain. But now after his evolution, it has extended to forty kilometers, giving his senses the ability to sense outside his lands.

"Arad!" Gojo appeared behind them, and Arad turned toward him, "I know, go. I'll handle things here,"

ZON! Gojo teleported away, "What's going on?"

"He needs to go protect the frozen north. The vampire attacks seem to be spread across the whole world," Arad cracked his neck, expanding his wings. "I'll clean the immediate area," ZON! He teleported.

***

Arad appeared in Alina beside a vampire, cutting him in half with one swing before getting noticed. "The fifth, all of them as far too weak." He looked around, "A strong one is..."

BAM! Arad could see trees thrown into the sky as a maniacal laugh filled the air, a powerful vampire lord flying backward with fists engulfed in flame, glaring forward with a stern face.

"Is that all you have?!" Alcott shouted as he jumped toward the vampire, cutting his arms in the blink of an eye.

The vampire growled, regenerating his arms and pointing toward Alcott, "Burn!" [Fire Torrent] Several beams of fire burst from the vampire's fingers, cutting trenches in the ground, then bursting into fiery explosions.

Alcott easily slipped between the beams, pulling a chain from his magic bag and swinging it like a whip, catching the vampire in the air, "Have you ever hunted with ropes, fiend!" With one pull, Alcott dropped the vampire to the ground and kicked him in the face right after he bounced back.

The vampire's body got flung back, ripping trees apart as he tried to regain his balance and heal his now crushed ribs. ^I know he was strong,^ He stood, [Scorching eyes] Sending two compressed beams of heat toward Alcott.

Alcott let go of the chain and pulled two short swords, cutting the beams in half in one motion. "Impossible!" The vampire cried.

BAM! With one leap, Alcott disappeared from the vampire's vision as if he teleported, appearing right in front of his face with a smile.

GAH! The vampire gasped, lifting his arms to block, but Alcott's fist pushed right through his guard, smacking him in the face. The impact gave the vampire enough momentum to send him flying back, but... "Where is Vlad!" Alcott clenched his fist, jumping behind the vampire before he could be sent flying back, punching him in the back.

Alcott started going around the vampire, pummeling him with punches and forcing him to stay in one place.

^No wonder Vlad lost before...How can a human move like this...^ The vampire gasped, igniting his whole body in an attempt to shake Alcott off.

SWOSH! Alcott stopped punching and lifted his hand, clapping at the vampire's face. The shockwave released a violent burst of wind that blew the flames off and blasted the vampire away.

"I've seen better!" Alcott rushed after the vampire, grabbing him by the face and pushing him through the trees, "Speak! Where is Vlad?!"

"Never!" The vampire growled.

"Then die!" Alcott threw the vampire away and pulled a long sword from his magic back, quickly sheathing it back into the bag and pulling it out drenched in holy water.

The vampire lifted his arms, trying to form a wall of fire, but he was too slow. Alcott flew past him, cutting him into pieces and making sure to dice the head and heart into mush.

"Alcott!" Arad called, landing behind him, "I finished the weak ones,"

"I heard something heavy crash earlier," Alcott looked at him, "Vlad is in the capital. Zephyr already went after him. We should be able to finish everything here first then follow her,"

Alcott hid his weapons back in his magic bag, "Zephyr should be able to beat him. Let's only hope he won't be able to pull a fast one on her. Vlad is quite tricky," Alcott looked at Arad, "If all the vampires around are dead, we better hurry to assist her,"

"Zephyr's is far stronger than what we think. She won't lose," Arad replied, "I'll carry us to the capital. But since I'm going to fly at an extreme speed, I'll only take those who can handle it,"

"Vlad is smarter than you think," Alcott said as he walked toward Arad, looking at the burning forest behind them.

"How sad," A voice came from the woods, and both Arad and Alcott stared back. ^I killed all vampires I could sense around,^ Arad thought.

^I was certain no other powerful vampire was left. Where did this one come from?^ Alcott pulled a sword.

"Hio Died. The fire bastard died," The vampire scratched his head, growling as blood dripped across his face, "Our lord won't be pleased. Who's fault is it? It's yours. Isn't it? You're the problem? HAA?!" He glared at them, eyes glowing red.

^This bloodlust.^ Alcott grunted, ^Another ancient vampire drowning in madness. Where did Vlad find him?^ He took a deep breath, slowly taking a stance while observing the vampire's every move.

Arad noticed that Alcott was being careful, so he did the same, getting ready to go all out, and took this unknown creature far more seriously than he took Alony.

CRACK! The ground beneath the vampire's legs cracked, and a humanoid hand rushed out, grabbing him by the face and smacking his head to the ground.

Meryem growled, "You're everywhere, here, in Alina, and even in the forest and outskirts. Where did your bugs come from?"

The vampire conjured two knives and tried stabbing her in the arms or chest, but all of his attacks just bounced off her skin. She was an ant, and just like how Arad's human skin is only his scales, Meryem's skin is her exoskeleton, an extremely hard outer shell.

"Who are you?" The vampire growled.

The black mist started coming out of Meryem's body as her eyes flickered with a purple light. Arad could tell immediately, that was his void coming out of her.

When he, a dragon took over the dungeon and made it his layer, the dungeon changed to suit his nature. Arad became the dungeon boss, and the monsters inside started slowly evolving with him, getting influenced by his magic to create a matching theme for the dungeon.

It started first with the ants getting draconic features like scales, or growing larger than they should, but now, their magic started shifting, and their queen, Meryem started doing the same.

Two mandibles emerged from Meryem's cheek as her mouth shifted into that of an ant. She slowly opened her jaws wide as the vampire struggled in her hand, "Let me go! Let me go!" He screamed, but she immediately bit his head off, dripping acid across his whole body, melting him into nothing.

"My children," Meryem growled, the muscles on her body expanding as her body got engulfed in a black aura, "Vampires are invading our colony. Hunt every one of them,"

ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON! ZON!

The ants started void-stepping from the ground to the surface, filling Alina's region with hundreds of thousands of house-sized giant fighter ants.

"Arad! Vampires are attacking all over the place," Eris rushed toward Arad and Alcott, seeing Meryem standing in the front, oozing with bloodlust. The ant colony got agitated, and it was starting to rampage.

"The ants will protect the place," Arad said, shifting into his draconic form, "I'll go to the capital and deal with Vlad,"

"I'll go," Meryem turned around and jumped, landing on Arad's back in one go.

"Wait!" Alcott jumped on Arad's back and pointed toward Alina, "Nina and Merlin are coming as well," As Arad looked, he saw the two flying toward them, Merlin carrying Nina.

"Meryem, can you fight?" Arad turned his head and looked at Meryem, "Vlad can control blood. You might get killed out of nowhere,"

"Invaders, I can't let them go," She growled.

"The ant queen usually stays in the backlines,"

"Not me," She replied.

"Wait!" Ginger flew in and landed on Arad's back, "I too want to give my father a beating. You'll need me to resist his blood magic,"

"I'll go as well," Eris climbed on Arad's back, "I'm sure we'll need holy magic to finish him off,"

Arad lifted his head, staring into the night sky, and roared. His voice booming across all of Alina, "To all! Hunt the vampires if you wish to remain in my land!"

Goblins and kobolds rushed out of Arad's house as the apes and wolves of the forest giggled and howled, rushing across the lands in a violent rage against the blood fiends. But that wasn't all...

A vampire was sneaking through a back ally in Alina, only to notice a clowder of cats glaring down at him with glowing purple eyes. "What?" He gasped as they lunged at him, biting and scratching.

Another who was sneaking in the sewers faced a swarm of massive rats that ate him alive. And a vampire who tried to fly into the forest got violently ripped apart by a murder of crows.

The dogs barked, and squirrels chipped the wood of the stake that pinned their chain to the ground, releasing them onto the night prowlers.

Mosquitoes formed swarms alongside bats to show the blood-

sucking fiends who were the better at the job, and even sheep and cows broke out of their pens to fight, heeding the dragon's call.

All animals in a 40-kilometer radius of Arad knew what awaited them if they failed to follow the dragon's command. Eaten alive by sunrise is the best the cowards who run could hope for. All the animals of the world have long since evolved and adapted to living alongside dragons, and this was the natural response.

A vampire ran across the forest, only to trip and fall on his face. "What is this?" He looked down, seeing his leg covered in blue slime, burning with acid.

"A slime?" He gasped but suddenly felt a wave of blood lust around. He turned, seeing a raccoon standing on his hind leg, T-

posing beneath the moonlight. Quickly after a gaze of them surrounded the fiend, glaring him down with glowing purple eyes.

Inside a house, a vampire managed to sneak in, trying to bite a young boy asleep in his bed.

"A fiend!" The family's pet parrot screamed, flapping his wings in his cage, "A blood fiend! Kill! Kill! QUAAAAAAAAAAAAC!"

A black widow spider fell from the ceiling on the vampire's face, biting him in the eye. He screamed, flailing his arms as the kid woke up, terrified.

A horse extended his head from the window, biting the vampire by the neck and pulling him out. As the kid stared out of the window, he saw the horse throw the vampire into the cattle pen for the cows to trample him.

The giant ants took care of the powerful vampires, hunting them down by tracking the scent of blood, while the animals used their senses to track and locate the weaker ones and sniff them out of hiding as the best of them at steal couldn't hide from every bug in the lands.
