Kiss of the vampire
"The Girl With The Sharp Sword"!
Mission twenty seven: The Last hope!( Under The Red moon part 4)
Ethan's heart sank as Balthazar's mocking laughter echoed through the castle. The weight of despair settled heavily on his shoulders. “No… it can’t be true,” he whispered, his voice barely audible over the chaos.
Kliev, still engaged in combat with Cedric, glanced back at Ethan, concern etched on his face. “What’s wrong?” he shouted, dodging another vicious swing from the vampire knight.
“The generals… they’ve lost!” Ethan replied, his voice trembling with urgency. “If Balthazar is here, it means Catharine and the others have overwhelmed them. We need to regroup and find a way out!” Meanwhile, back at the altar, all of the hunters were defeated, and the last ones who were still standing were Mizuno, Kim, and Andrew, but they're all bloodied.
"Mizuno, can you still hold on?" Andrew said in a weak voice. And Mizuno just responded in a low voice. "Yeah, man, but… I can't hold on much longer. Hey, you kid, can you still fight? Mizuno asked Kim, who was also battered and missing an arm. "Yeah, I think I've still got a fight in me," he said while panting heavily. While the Hatcher family leader is still in good shape, slightly wounded. . " Man, I want you to finish him once I unleash my final attack ok I'll do the dragon dance"Mizuno ordered as his friends nodded in unison and prepare for one last confrontation. As he gathers all of the moisture around the whole area and clouds he condensed it Into a medium size water dragon and the black clouds that hes using to cover the Red moon provide it a lightning covering the water dragon .and the vampire leader notice it but it was too late Mizuno unleashed it and send the 3 massive lightning water dragon to the ground one at their opponent two at the altar and lancer. As Mizuno shouted God fucked you ugly blood sucking bastards!! Water Dragon thunder Clap!"
The air crackled with energy as Mizuno unleashed his final attack, the three massive lightning-infused water dragons hurtling toward their targets with terrifying speed. The ground trembled beneath them, and the very atmosphere seemed to hold its breath in anticipation of the impending clash.
Balthazar's laughter faltered as he turned, his eyes widening in disbelief. "No! You think you can defeat me with a mere trick?" he sneered, but the confidence in his voice wavered as the dragons closed in.
The first dragon struck the altar with a deafening roar, sending shards of stone and splintered wood flying in all directions. The force of the impact sent the other vampires and wendigo sprawling backward, his grip on McDougal raising his head, faltering as he struggled to regain his consciousness. Heh, go fuck them up, little rant," McDougal managed to say. The second dragon veered toward Lancer, who barely had time to react before it collided with him, engulfing him in a torrent of water and electricity.
The third dragon, aimed directly at Balthazar, surged forward with a ferocity that seemed to embody Mizuno's rage and desperation. The vampire leader's smirk vanished as he raised his hands, attempting to conjure a barrier of dark energy. But the water dragon crashed into him with a blinding flash, the lightning coursing through his body, illuminating the darkened chamber with a brilliant light.
Balthazar's scream pierced the air, a sound of pure rage and disbelief as the water dragon enveloped him. The dark energy he summoned flickered and sputtered, unable to withstand the sheer force of Mizuno's attack. The chamber erupted in chaos, the walls vibrating with the impact, and the very foundation of the castle seemed to tremble under the weight of the unleashed power.
As the dust settles, the Hatcher family leader is nowhere to be found. As they smile in celebration, they feel a chill down their spine. As they turn their heads, someone kicks Mizuno's face, sending him sprawling to the ground. But as he stops, he manages to raise his hand and stops the crowd from dispersing. Nahh... Not a chance! I will not complete your ritual or whatever! But as he said that, he heard a familiar voice; as he turned his head, he saw Ghelle was already with Lancer, dragging her to the altar to sacrifice her. Lancer punched her in her stomach, rendering her unconscious. With that, he put Ghelle on the altar, slicing her wrist; now her blood is pouring into the altar, and Lancer smiles. "Balthazar, how long do you want to play with those humans? Finish them already so I could start the final process. Balthazar just bowed and teleported in front of Mizuno and whispered,Guess your hero is too late to save you this time, sorry kid." As he's about to pierce through Mizuno's body, Kim pushed him, taking the hit himself. Mizuno's eyes widen; anger boiled inside him as he unleashed a water cannon towards Balthazar.
"Motherfucker!" He shouted in pure anger. The water cannon erupted from Mizuno's hands, a torrent of fury and desperation aimed directly at Balthazar. The vampire leader barely had time to react, his eyes widening in shock as the powerful stream of water slammed into him, knocking him off balance. The force of the attack sent him crashing into the stone wall, leaving a deep indentation and a cloud of dust in his wake.
“Kim!” Mizuno shouted, his heart racing as he turned to see his friend crumpling to the ground, blood pooling around him; his body is slowly turning into dust. “No! Why did you—”
“Because I’m not letting you die, you idiot! We had to stall time re…..member? Your friend is strong, right? He could…save us all, right? ” Kim gasped, clutching his chest where Balthazar’s hand had pierced him. “You have to finish this. You’re the only one left who can! Help will come; just hold on.”
Mizuno's heart shattered as he watched Kim's lifeless form disintegrate into dust, the remnants of his friend swirling away like a cruel memory. Anguish surged through him, igniting a fire that burned hotter than any flame. He clenched his fists, feeling the weight of despair transform into a fierce determination.
“No more!” he roared, his voice echoing through the chamber, drowning out the chaos around him. The remnants of the water dragon still crackled with energy, and Mizuno could feel the power coursing through him, fueled by his grief and rage. He turned to face Balthazar, who was slowly rising from the rubble, a sneer returning to his lips. But when he was about to attack, Balthazar vanished and reappeared in front of him, grabbing his neck and lifting him, choking him. But still Mizuno doesn't put down his arm; he's still pouring his ki reserves to the clouds that are covering the Red Moon, but slowly his eyes lose their light too, and Balthazar throws him aside. As he clicks his tongue, the clouds clear up, showing the red moon.
And all of the runes in the altar glow as Lancer laughs. The vampire king and queen receive the power that the Outer Gods bestow on them. A massive light descended to the ground. And a voice spoke. "Who dares to open the dimensional gate?!" The mysterious voice spoke.
"I am, sir; I am your loyal servant Lancer, and this is my wife Catharine. We offer you this world, our creator." As Lancer said this, the mysterious voice chuckled and spoke again. "Well, you beings on earth are really amusing. I'll accept your offering, and what do you want in return, my loyal follower?" The voice boomed as Lancer's smirk grew larger; he raised his head. "This loyal follower of you all wants to turn this world into a vampire because this is the only way all of them will recognize your greatness.

The air crackled with tension as Lancer's words hung in the chamber, a dark promise that sent shivers down the spines of the remaining hunters. Mizuno, still reeling from the loss of Kim, struggled to rise, his body battered and his spirit wavering. The weight of despair threatened to crush him, but the flicker of hope ignited by his fallen friend’s sacrifice burned fiercely within him.
Balthazar, now infused with the dark power of the Outer Gods, stood tall, his eyes gleaming with malevolence. “You think you can stop us?” he taunted, his voice dripping with contempt. “You’re nothing but a fading ember in the face of the storm we are about to unleash.”
Mizuno’s heart raced as he pushed himself to his feet, his fists clenched tightly. “I won’t let you do this!” he shouted, his voice hoarse but resolute. The remnants of the water dragon still crackled around him, a testament to his power and determination. He could feel the energy of the storm building within him, a force that could either save or destroy.
“Foolish boy,” Balthazar sneered, stepping forward, his presence suffocating. “You think you can challenge the will of the Outer Gods? You’re already too late. The ritual has begun, and soon this world will be ours!”
As the light from the altar intensified, Mizuno felt the ground tremble beneath him. The runes glowed brighter, pulsating with dark energy as Lancer and Catharine stood at the center, their forms silhouetted against the blinding light. The air thickened with the scent of blood and power, a heady mix that made Mizuno’s stomach churn.
“Lancer!” Mizuno shouted, his voice cutting through the chaos. “You’re a coward! You think you can gain power by sacrificing others!? You’ll only bring ruin upon us all!”
Lancer turned, his expression twisted with malice. “You don’t understand, Mizuno. This is evolution! The weak will perish, and the strong will rise. The world will bow before the might of vampires, and I will be their king!”
With a roar, Mizuno summoned the last of his strength and rushed towards Lancer, but Balthazar pinned him down.Damnit! Let me go, you damn monster! Fight me, you coward.!" He shouted. And the outer God spoke. "Granted. After I turn this world into my image, you will offer those who use ki to me." As he said that, Lancer just bowed, and another light covered the whole world.
"The fuck, Maya, we need to hurry; this is getting bad," Ben Rayleigh said, hurrying Maya. As they run, all of the people on the streets are convulsing and turning into vampires. "We need to hurry and free them," Maya added.
"Right."
Meanwhile, the others are panicking; our two McDeyviel and Denver are now ready for the battlefield when all of a sudden they see a massive light in the sky. As they ride the helicopter.
"Fuck, I have a bad feeling about that fucking light," Deyviel said.
"Yeah, me too. Should we jump? Denver asks.
"No, not yet," he said, but all of a sudden, Deyviel felt a familiar KO signature down them.
"This kid, it's Ethan's Denver. Grab your—" As he's about to finish his words, the pilot starts convulsing and turning into a vampire.
"The fuck is happening?" Deyviel shouted as the helicopter spun around, but before it hit the ground, the two jumped. And run towards Ethan's ki signature.
Meanwhile, as we go back to Ethan's side.
All of them were bleeding and wounded because the one who attacked them is the real Balthazar, not his shadow clone. And Cedric was left there and about to finish them when suddenly Deyviel and Denver landed above him, but before Deyviel landed above him, he used his Vampire Buster and used its giant spirit arm floating behind him and punched Cedric to the ground, killing him instantly.
The impact of Deyviel's attack sent shockwaves through the castle, the ground trembling beneath them as Cedric's body crumpled to the floor, lifeless. Ethan, Kliev, and the others looked up in astonishment, their eyes widening as they recognized their allies.
“Deyviel! Denver!” Ethan shouted, relief flooding through him. “You made it!”
“Barely,” Deyviel replied, his voice strained but resolute. “We saw the light in the sky. What the hell is going on?”
“Balthazar and Lancer are trying to summon the Outer Gods,” Kliev explained, his breath coming in ragged gasps. “They’re turning the world into a vampire haven. We need to stop them!”
"Ok, you guys stay here; we'll handle it." Healed up and followed us. Ok, "Deyviel said, but as he's about to turn to Denver and leave, Ethan pulled his arm. Kid, still yourself because if this is happening now, maybe…maybe I'm sorry," he said, but Deyviel stopped him.
"I know, Cap, it's okay, but at least I have to try to save this world." As he said that, he turned to Denver and prepared to head out. Ethan just looked at him, amazed by his subordinate's confidence and aura. Like when there's no hope, he can shine the world. Then he just smiles. "Go get them, lad!" He whispered.
"Hey, bruh, how are we supposed to get there fast?" Denver asked. But Deyviel just smiles. And Denver's eyes widen. "No, no, no, no!" As he said that, Deyviel enlarged his vampire buster and threw it into the distance and grabbed something; when he got a good grip, he hugged his best friend and pulled them and shouted. (Gomu gomu no! Rocket!" Deyviel shouted as they flew into the red sky.
The wind whipped around them as Deyviel and Denver soared through the air, propelled by the sheer force of Deyviel's Vampire Buster. The castle, now a distant silhouette against the ominous red moon, faded behind them as they raced toward the source of the dark energy that threatened to engulf the world.
“Hold on tight!” Deyviel shouted, his voice barely audible over the rush of wind. Denver clung to him, his heart pounding with a mix of fear and exhilaration. They could see the pulsating light of the altar growing brighter, a beacon of chaos that drew them closer.
As they approached, the air crackled with dark energy, and the ground below trembled with the weight of the ritual being performed. Deyviel's eyes narrowed as he spotted Mizuno, battered but defiant, standing against Balthazar and Lancer, who were now enveloped in a swirling mass of dark power.
“Look!” Denver pointed, his voice filled with urgency. “We have to help him!”
Deyviel nodded, determination etched on his face. “We will! But we need to be smart about this. We can’t just charge in blindly. Ready your strongest attack; you aim at Catherine, and I'll handle Lancer.”
"Got it." Denver nodded and pulled his dual short swords and channeled his ki in it. As they're above the altar, Deyviel pulls his sword called the Red Queen and squeezes the throttle, giving it a red glow in the blade as he nods with Denver. They unleash their attacks: Denver uses his ki-infused short swords with raging flames, and Deyviel with his Red Queen Glowing Red. Now! "
With a synchronized shout, Deyviel and Denver unleashed their attacks, the air around them shimmering with energy. Denver's dual short swords ignited in a blaze of fiery ki, creating a swirling vortex of flames that spiraled toward Catharine. At the same time, Deyviel swung the Red Queen, its crimson glow intensifying as he channeled every ounce of his strength into the strike aimed at Lancer.
“Flame Vortex!” Denver shouted, the flames erupting from his swords and spiraling toward Catharine like a fiery serpent, intent on consuming her in its wrath.
“Crimson Cleave! Scorching sun!” Deyviel roared, the Red Queen slicing through the air with deadly precision, aimed directly at Lancer’s heart.
The two attacks collided with their targets almost simultaneously. Catharine, caught off guard by the sudden onslaught, barely had time to react. The flames engulfed her, and she screamed as the fire seared her flesh, the dark energy she had been channeling flickering and sputtering under the intense heat.
Lancer, however, was not so easily deterred. He raised a hand, summoning a barrier of dark energy to deflect Deyviel’s strike. The Red Queen met the barrier with a resounding clash, sending shockwaves rippling through the air. Deyviel gritted his teeth, pushing against the barrier with all his might, but Lancer’s dark power was formidable.
“Foolish boy!” Lancer sneered, his eyes glinting with malice. “You think you can stop the ascension of the Outer Gods? You’re nothing but a nuisance!”
But Deyviel’s resolve only hardened. “I’m not just a nuisance; I’m the one who’s going to end this!” With a fierce roar, he channeled more ki into the Red Queen, the blade glowing brighter as he pushed against Lancer’s barrier. The energy surged, and cracks began to form in the dark shield.
Meanwhile, Denver’s flames continued to rage around Catharine, who struggled to maintain her composure. “You think you can defeat me with fire?” she hissed, her voice laced with fury. “I am a queen of the ice!”
"Yeah, so that is why I'm the one who's going to boil you, Denver replied.
Denver shouted back, pouring more ki into his swords. The flames intensified, wrapping around Catharine like a fiery cocoon, and she screamed again, the sound echoing through the chamber as the fire consumed her.
As the chaos unfolded, Mizuno, still reeling from the loss of Kim, felt a surge of hope as he witnessed Deyviel and Denver’s arrival. “You guys made it!” he shouted, his voice filled with renewed determination. “We can turn the tide!”
Balthazar, now fully aware of the threat posed by the newcomers, turned his attention to them, his eyes narrowing with contempt. “You think you can interfere with my plans?” he growled, his voice dripping with malice. “You will pay for your insolence!”
"How would you win against all of us? All of you friends are down. You think you two are enough to stop us? How foolish.Lancer sneered at them. As Deyviel scanned the area, he could see so many wendigos and ghouls and four vampire knights and two vampire lords.
"Tsk, as he clicks his tongue, Catherine laughs even harder. Even if you two get strong enough to fight or match a vampire lord, you won't win against all of us. Give up, human, you two. We're outnumbered.
Deyviel's heart raced as he took in the overwhelming odds stacked against them. But then one voice spoke. "They were outnumbered if we weren't here," the voice said. As Deyviel turned his head, he could see a familiar silhouette and smiled. Well, you're late too, you bastard! "Deyviel shouted as the light of the red moon revea
led the person's identity.
"Ben Rayleigh!" Catherine shouted. As more silhouettes appear, one woman stands beside Ben. As we hear growls and howling.
