Rumble, Rumble.

Natashia's eyes glowed blood red, and when she went to make a move, suddenly Niklaus said:

"Wait!" He made a stopping gesture and looked to the sky:

"Count Alucard has interfered in the duel, isn't that against the rules?" He spoke in a simple, easy-to-understand tone.

"..." Everyone was silent.

They all thought... Bruh, don't break the mood, read the mood! The weather!

But Niklaus didn't care about that, as he looked at the referee who appeared in the arena:

"Hmm... Well... I think, yes...?" The referee, however, looked carefully to see Victor's reaction.

Gulp.

He swallowed hard when he saw the man's gaze.

"See?" Niklaus' smile grew a little. "I clearly would have won if it weren't for Count Alucard's interference. What should we do about it?"

"Hmmm...Hmm..." The referee didn't know what to do, and, to be honest, he just wanted to get out of here. He didn't have the balls to get into an argument between two vampire counts and an ex-Countess.

"Pussy." Natashia spat on the floor.

"..." Niklaus looked at the woman, "My lady, it was you who was losing a few seconds ago, if it weren't for the interference of your... Husband, I would have already won this duel."

"..." At first, Natashia was annoyed that Niklaus used this 'cowardly' tactic, but when she heard the word 'husband', she seemed to have forgotten everything and flashed a small smile.

The man clearly had the potential to be a bootlicker.

"Well, yes… The rules…-" The referee looked like he was going to say something, but suddenly everyone heard Victor's voice.

"Rules, huh... Rules... Pfft..." Everyone looked at him.

Suddenly:

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~" A maniacal laugh was heard by everyone, and that laugh made all the vampires shiver.

And as a bipolar being, his maniacal laugh turned into an angry face:

"You said, RULES!?" His voice echoed throughout the arena.

"What bullshit!."

"Huh?"

"Rules were made to be broken, and..." Victor pointed his finger at Niklaus, "You don't decide the rules."

"...You're not making any sense."

"You do not understand...?" Victor looked at Niklaus as if he were looking at a fool.

"..." Niklaus narrowed his eyes when he saw Victor's gaze.

"Let me clarify for you."

"Since ancient times, the rules have always been clear." Victor clenched his fist, and the magic circle on his glove glowed brightly:

"Rules are decided by the strongest being present!"

Victor turned his gaze and looked at a specific spot.

Following his gaze, everyone else looked at that spot as well.

"..." Vlad flashed a small smile when he saw the gaze of all the vampires present on him.

"What do you say, O' King of Vampires?"

"..." A moment of silence fell in the arena, and suddenly Vlad opened his mouth.

"No rules were broken, the game goes on."

"..." An even deeper silence fell over the entire arena.

Some vampires wanted to say that this was clearly favoritism! But they didn't have the balls to question the king.

"... Fath-." Theo looked like he wanted to say something, but his question was interrupted by a man's laughter.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA~!" Victor laughed very loudly as he clapped his hands together.

'... This man, he keeps doing what he wants.' Theo thought irritably.

"You heard the man! No rules were broken!"

"... Well, if the king said so, right...?" Someone from the audience spoke.

"Yes, the king has spoken..."

"Indeed." Everyone came to a common consensus, and what was that consensus?

Swallow this irrational situation and move on!

Suddenly, Victor's whole atmosphere became calmer and more solemn... More cold and cruel...

"Keep going…Kill him." His words were directed at only one person.

And that put a big smile on Natashia's face.

Rumble, Rumble!

Seeing that crazy woman approaching him, Niklaus had only one thing to say:

"Fuck."

Suddenly, the woman disappeared from vision and then reappeared in front of Niklaus:

"Piece of shit... I will make you suffer 1000x for sucking my blood. Only one person can do that." She places her hand on Niklaus' chest, and suddenly.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.

Sounds of multiple explosions hitting something at the same time were heard.

A huge hole appeared in his chest.

"Wha-." He couldn't even see what had happened.

Cough.

Black blood came out of his mouth.

His eyes bulged as he staggered up, and in the meantime, he saw Victor's cold face.

Victor started to move his mouth, and he seemed to be hearing a voice in his head.

"From the beginning, you only had one choice, fight, fight, and... Fight again. Rules won't protect you, schemes won't protect you, only your strength will protect you..." Slowly Victor showed a cruel smile.

"And now...? What are you going to do? Fight, or Die?"

Niklaus was sure of one thing, if a demon was present right now at this moment, they would definitely treat this man as one of their brethren.

'Fuck this kid!' Niklaus was irritated...

But his anger wouldn't overcome Natashia's.

The woman, using her claws, made a mess of the man's body. She was ripping apart his head, legs, guts, bones, everything!

And since the man was in the form of a full Vampire Count transformation, his already rapid regeneration had become even faster… Something he was already coming to regret as Natashia abused his regeneration speeds to cause the man more pain!

"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Niklaus screamed in pain as he felt his guts being pulled from his body.

It felt like endless torture, he felt the pain, and the pain would go away because of his regeneration, and then the process was repeated over and over again.

A bloodbath was being created in the arena, drenching the arena floor in Niklaus' crimson life-essence.

"This is... too cruel..." Someone from the audience spoke as they watched the fight in the arena.

Wrong, this could no longer be called a fight but a...

"She's torturing him..." A younger vampire spoke as he gulped.

"That's still not enough for him..." A female vampire spoke with a sadistic smile.

"..." A man looked at the woman and wanted to say; 'Woman, weren't you rooting for Niklaus a few seconds ago?'

Well, she was, but a woman's mood changes the way they change underwear.

"I've not finished yet." Natashia raised her hand and pierced Nikalus' chest, which had already begun to recover around her wrist. Then, with a movement that occurred so quickly it was beyond the perception of most audience members, she stole the man's heart, literally, and threw it to the ground, crushing it beneath her foot with a resounding squelch!

"Blood for blood, heart for heart." Her eyes started to glow gold. She didn't even want to drink the man's blood and felt disgusted at the mere thought, resulting in her kicking the man into the sky.

"Ugh..." Niklaus hated this. He couldn't do anything, and it was like he was a toy with how he was being played with, unable to make a move of his own.

Rumble, Rumble.

Loud sounds of lightning started to be heard by everyone.

The woman's bat wings seemed to grow, and lightning began to fall on her wings, acting like lightning rods to fuel her attack as Natashia pointed her palm in the air.

Rumble, Rumble, Rumble.

Her entire body seemed to be charged with pure energy as she was glowing brightly.

Soon she uttered the name of the technique that her mother taught her several years ago:

"De fulmine judicii."

"..." A silence fell in the arena, and nobody understood what happened, they expected an attack, but nothing happened!

Victor looked up to the sky and displayed a small smile; 'As expected of an older vampire... I think?'

The moment the thought crossed his mind,

A gigantic beam of golden light descended towards Niklaus.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Niklaus' scream was followed by a gigantic explosion.

Seeing the explosion with his eyes, Victor's smile grew, and suddenly, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA~!"

"Splendid! What a beautiful view!" He looked at the explosion and then looked at the woman, who continued to stare at the explosion with a neutral gaze.

"What a beautiful view... Indeed." This time he spoke in a low voice.

[Master is becoming an explosion maniac...] Kaguya spoke with a sigh at the end.

Gulp.

"This power... Isn't that capable of easily destroying a country?" Adam, the younger prince, spoke.

"I don't think I'm capable of destroying a country, but… A small country… Definitely…" Saul laughed.

"What do you think, brother, can you beat her?" Theo asked Lucas.

"Before... I could, but after that man showed up and she drank his blood... It's hard to say." He couldn't be 100% sure. After all, the perfect form of the Vampire Count that the two beings were using greatly increased their power.

Unless he transformed himself and could measure their power, he could not say he could defeat her.

"I see..." Theo spoke up.

"I wonder what's so special about that man's blood... An older vampire can't increase their power that easily." Lilith asked aloud as she placed her finger on her cheek while she displayed a small smile. She seemed to be thinking about something, but suddenly, she heard her father's voice.

"... You cannot."

"Eh...?" She opened her mouth in shock, "But I didn't say anything!" She pouted.

"If you dare to do so, I will personally order the maids to disappear with your entire collection."

Gulp.

"Which collection?" She had several collections that she's made over the years, from luxurious cars and mansions and things that humans say were 'limited editions'.

"Everything."

"...What-..." Lilith's face went dark; her father wouldn't be so mean to her, right? He always spoiled her!

But when she saw Vlad's serious gaze, she realized he was very serious about this.

"...F-Fine...I won't do anything." Her collection was more important than a passing curiosity.

"Good." Vlad smiled, and inwardly he felt he'd dodged a bullet. After all, when a vampire tasted the blood of the Night King, that individual would become addicted to that blood, considering the best nutrients were in that blood.

"..." Elizabeth broke out into a cold sweat.

... Little did he know that one of his daughters had already drunk that man's blood and that she was having trouble feeding because of it.

Although Elizabeth would never say it out loud, she was the one who lived closest to Ophis, and she knew the little girl hadn't been able to feed properly since the day she drank Victor's blood...

The explosion began to subside, and soon everyone could see the damage caused by that explosion.

"Holy Fuck... Was my family's power that strong?" Sasha spoke aloud when she saw the large crater the attack had caused.

"...From what my mother said, all four Vampire Count families have a power capable of wreaking havoc like this." Eleanor explained.

"It depends on the user actually." Adonis continued.

"For example, Yuki, the maid of our clan, can only make small fireballs, she hasn't trained her power enough to do something like that."

"But… The potential to do that kind of damage is there, right?" Sasha spoke up.

"Well...Yes." Adonis couldn't deny Sasha's words since, if everyone in his clan made the effort to train the power they were born with, in time, they could become a second or third Agnes.

"Where is that man?" Violet asked with a gaze glowing blood red, "Is he dead?"

"Of course not." Adonis spoke, his eyes seemed to glow violet for a few seconds, and he felt a weakness in his body, but he didn't show it to anyone, he just thought:

'Fuck.'

As if coordinating with Adonis' words, black water began to form in the sky.

"Tsk, is he a cockroach? Why doesn't he die?" Agnes and Violet spoke at the same time.

"His power is very troublesome." Scathach spoke in a neutral tone:

'He's creating several pieces of himself and spreading them across the battlefield. If she doesn't destroy everything, it's impossible to kill him.' Scathach thought as he analyzed the fight.

Soon Niklaus was created, and he appeared to have no damage.

"Tsk, annoying motherfucker."

Niklaus looked at his hand, and he closed and opened his fist.

Then he looked at Natashia, "You can't kill me."

"Unlike you, I am a true immortal." He flashed a smile.

Natashia showed the middle finger to the man, "And you can't beat me since you're a weak ass bitch."

"...Oof." A woman from the audience spoke with a smile on her face.

"..." A man looked at the woman.

"What? Being called weak by a woman must have damaged his male pride." The woman flashed a small smile.

"After all, men have a very big ego... Mainly, men who have small dicks."

Niklaus' ears twitched a little, he seemed to have heard what the woman said, and his eyes narrowed as he looked at Natashia:

Veins started popping in the man's head, his eyes glowed blood red, he looked irritated, but...

He gives a big sigh, 'Why am I getting upset by what they're saying?'

He closed his eyes and seemed to be thinking about something:

'In order to defeat her, I have to assume that form, but if I do that, all my plans will go down the drain, I'd better retreat now...' Niklaus felt something strange about this situation: the obvious change in appearance from Count Alucard, the king blatantly helping Count Alucard, and most of all, Alexios...

That troublesome man wasn't hiding as usual. Whenever the king appeared in public, that man was always hiding, but this time, he wasn't.

'Something is stinking here.'

Rumble, Rumble.

Looking at Natashia, who was covered in lightning, ready to attack him at any moment, he spoke up.

He took a deep breath and said:

"I give up."
