The moonlight is like water, pouring over the tranquil Reed mansion.

As a baron on the border of the Lockes Principality, Ray almost never engaged in political struggles.

Of course, it was also possible that he ended up in such a situation because of a wrong alignment in his youth.

After overcoming the initial period of dissatisfaction, he found that living here seemed very pleasant.

Due to its location on the border, almost no one cares about it.

Among the various nearby villages and towns, his status is the highest, giving him the illusion of being a “little king.”

At this moment, he was enjoying the luxurious life of being surrounded by people.

He had no idea that his life had entered a countdown after making an extremely rash decision.

...

“Your Highness Shirley, there are already traces of human activity here…”

Luna said this after returning from an external reconnaissance.

After three days of travel, Shirley finally heard the good news.

Although she had only stayed in the carriage and slept during these three days, she still felt inexplicably tired.

It seemed that she had lived a pampered life for too long and had forgotten the hardships of being a hardworking person.

Now she urgently needed to find a place with a beautiful environment and fresh air to stay so she could relax her body and mind, which were tired from the long journey.

“Shirley, I’m so hungry…” Next to her, Karina was lying on the table and moaning helplessly.

She was the one who proposed traveling to the human world and was the most enthusiastic about this trip.

However, compared to Shirley, she was very lacking in preparation.

In fact, she traveled with Shirley empty-handed and without food.

“You brought so much food, can I have a bite?” Karina pleaded playfully, looking at the trembling blood slaves with her green eyes.

“No!”

Without hesitation, Shirley decisively refused.

Although she had brought five blood slaves with her this time, she had carefully selected these supplies.

If she couldn’t get used to the blood outside, relying on the regeneration speed of these five blood slaves would prevent her from starving.

And Karina, despite being very hungry, refused to eat anything other than meat, which left her speechless.

As for the option of going out to hunt, they opted to give up after turning the raw meat into charcoal.

By the way, Luna’s culinary skills are absolutely perfect, and barbecuing is no problem.

The food that turned into charcoal was deliberately made by her.

Luna would never feel a trace of guilt for tormenting Karina like this.

“However, once we find a place to stay, we should be able to find delicious food…”

As she spoke, Shirley stomped her right foot on the ground.

“Come out! My summon!”

Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation.

As Shirley shouted, her shadow began to writhe wildly, as if some malevolent entity sealed within was struggling to escape the seal.

Amidst the manic and high-pitched “screeching” sounds, hundreds of black bats emerged from her shadow.

These bats seemed to be covered by a shadow, with only their outer contours visible.

The shadows of the bats flew and circled through the sky, and for a time, the previously quiet forest became extremely noisy.

“Go find me the place where humans live!”

At Shirley’s command, all the bats immediately flew off.

Shadow Bats - followers personally selected by Shirley, usually hide in her shadow.

Although they do not have strong offensive capabilities, their advantages in stealth, detection, and speed are notable.

The vampire race lacks integrated detection capabilities, so Shirley chose to use Shadow Bats to compensate for their deficiencies.

“The next step is just to wait for these children to return,” Shirley said with satisfaction.

“Really?” Karina’s ears, which had originally drooped, perked up suddenly.

She jumped to Shirley’s side and said cautiously, “It seems that something has been attracted by the noise you made…”

“Serious?”

Despite receiving such information, Shirley was not the least bit nervous.

Question: What creatures in the Dark Forest could pose a threat to them?

Answer: None.

These were simple questions and answers.

Shirley did not have much clarity about the strength of beings in the outside world, but living in the depths of the dark forest, she had never encountered an enemy that was difficult for her to handle.

Luna also obediently came to Shirley’s side.

No matter how strong the enemy was, anyone who dared to disturb Her Highness Shirley was unforgivable.

After a brief wait, even Shirley felt the ground tremble slightly.

“Is it some large creature?” Shirley guessed.

She looked around, but unfortunately, the trees blocked her view, and she did not notice anything unusual in any direction.

“No, it’s underground!”

Karina, who had the best hearing among the three, shouted.

The moment her voice fell, the ground beneath the three suddenly opened up into a several-meter-long fissure.

Karina and Luna jumped to the left and right to get out of the way, while Shirley quickly used magic to rise into the air.

Compared to Karina, who was trained in “combat skills,” Shirley focused almost all her energy on practicing magic, so their fighting styles were very different.

“Is it a subterranean worm?” Shirley concentrated on the creature that was attacking them.

Subterranean worms are generally level three monsters.

They range from twelve to fifteen meters in length and about one meter in width.

They belong to the category of low-level monsters and always cause many problems.

Moreover, the subterranean worm that attacked them this time was obviously not a common species.

Even the portion above the ground exceeded ten meters in length and was more than three meters wide.

“Is this type of trash undergoing collective mutation?” Karina had to dodge again as soon as her feet touched the ground.

Because the worm attacking them this time was not one, but a group!

“Those damn worms!” Shirley couldn’t help but curse as she looked at the ground that was gradually collapsing.

Their enormous white bodies continued to writhe, emitting roars from their extremely disgusting mouths, quickly causing massive damage to the soil.

Karina and Luna were agile, but their nightmarish carriage did not have such strong evasion skills, not to mention that it was still in mimicry mode, not as good as its normal state, and was about to sink into the ground.

“Damn it!”

The financial loss caused by the loss of the nightmare carriage was nothing.

Shirley was very weak in the concept of money since she was a child, but she would be heartbroken if the blood slave in the carriage were injured.

“Everyone get off the ground, and I’ll take care of them!”

Hearing Shirley’s shout, Karina and Luna jumped one after the other, using their incredible jumping abilities to stay temporarily at the same height as Shirley.

This way, Shirley could use magic as much as she wanted.

The sharp tiger’s teeth bit her thumb, and the movement of her arm in the air drew a drop of blood.

“In the name of blood!”

Due to extreme dissatisfaction in her heart and disgust for these disgusting insects, Shirley had forgotten the meaning of the word “elegance.”

As soon as it appeared, she attacked ruthlessly in a state of madness.

“Experience Purgatory!”

One ring, two rings, three rings… a huge bloody magic circle with eight rings illuminated half the sky, the vast magical power erupting from Shirley’s small body created enormous wind pressure.

And the worms twisted uncontrollably on the ground, trying to move.

The blood seemed to be roaring, emitting a terrible and hoarse roar.

Originally the size of common water drops, but under the enormous increase in magical power, its volume grew tens of thousands of times.

The blood across the sky transformed into fierce ghosts.

They became furious and threw themselves onto the ground fearlessly.

The bloody torrent had just hit the ground and then spun rapidly, forming an extremely exaggerated bloody tornado.

“Blood Fury – Blood Purgatory” is a combination spell of eight rings.

With the enhancement of “Blood Fury,” this spell is more destructive than the original “Blood Purgatory.”

When the blood subsided, except for the nightmare carriage that Shirley deliberately avoided, everything within a few hundred meters was ruthlessly smashed to pieces.
