Suddenly, forty of my units got blasted off the ground and flew into the skies, when they reached the ground again, they were squashed over and splattered into fleshy piles of blood and bones. It was a gruesome thing to look at my units which I've summoned with great effort to die so easily! Damn bastard.
However, I've kind of taken a grasp of his powers. For some reason, this dude doesn't use his MP completely alone… or more like he's just incapable. Apparently Vampires in this world can't use their MP unless they got Blood to use as well. This is why he's so dependent in the blood of an army to use his powerful Blood Magic or Blood Skills. I see… this guy got more weaknesses than I thought, but that damn Cursed Sword he got is still fucking strong.
And even if he discard the magic at all, he still got insane physical strength that would easily put him into the pinnacle of a Human, if not higher. He's probably S Grade in Rank if it wasn't because he depends in Blood so much. Of course, foes never have a consistent level of power, as long as you know how to cheaply take away their lives bit by bit, you'll learn and find a way to fuck them over. Just like right now.
He things he got the upper hand, huh? Well, let's see.
"Hmph, you seem to believe that just numbers can overpower me? I was merely playing with these puppets… If they're no longer useful, I can act myself." The Emperor seemed frustrated his puppet show got fucked over. He quickly got so salty he began running through my army of monsters slaying them all with his sword, slashing them all into pieces and attempting to drain their blood to unleash even more devastating attacks.
I see, this is his true battle style, devastate armies, drain blood, explosive magic, repeat. Huh, let's see if you can use the blood now.
"Silva, summon the corpses of the monsters that die and absorb them for more MP."
"Got it."
Silva has the power to summon her monsters outside her dungeon or into it. Indeed, she can bring her army back inside her dungeon at any time. It is similar to the power that Elfina has (which she's boosting my stats using Summon Enhancement already), as she can bring her summons to the front of her face at any time by spending some little Mana.
Well, Silva can do the same.
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
"Huh?"
The Emperor quickly was surprised as every corpse he tried to grab disappeared before he could even touch them. The corpses disappeared right before his nose! And all while Silva absorbed them and generated even more summons, gaining more Skill Proficiency to boot! She's getting closer to Level 3 Summoning, so she can get some new and stronger monsters after a bit more.
"So you think that without Blood I am useless?" The Emperor roared, jumping around the battlefield, and trying to aim at me, rushing straight towards me. He probably also wants to destroy Aquamarine, which he might think to be another of my summoned monsters.
"Yeah, I think so." I answered with the most cocky voice I could muster. I quickly decided to do another trick, ordering White to unleash "that"
"Very well then…!"
BOOM!
"Ah?!"
BOOM!
"Ngh?!"
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
Suddenly, the monsters began to run straight towards him and explode into explosions of bright holy light. One after the other, the monsters detonated themselves through the powers of White. As she was capable of reducing or enhancing the intensity of her own body, which had turned into the light that was the enhancement aura of these monsters. She simply decided to infuse so much light into their bodies that they began to explode.
This was one of my other strategies, I called it, Summon Monster Detonation, or Monster Bomb for short. With this, I didn't cared if he could kill them with a swing of his sword, by the time he touched a foe, they would explode into bright light. Dozens of monsters exploded, as their remains turned into MP for Silva to create more troops as well. The holy flames that spread out from each explosion became stronger and more prominent, spreading across the battlefield constantly.
"You can detonate your troops…!" The Emperor said, lacking the Blood to make shields, he was locked into his secondary attribute, darkness. But because darkness was weak to light, it was easily being overpowered and dissipated with each chain explosions. The holy flames were deadly as well, and because every explosion was like a cast of [Purification] the Skills were also gaining Skill Proficiency for me and growing stronger!
This meant that the more units I blow into pieces, the more my levels could raise skill-wise. The Emperor began to quickly take a heavy burden as he felt forced to walk across the landmine-filled battlefield! I was honestly bluffed when I saw him struggle as much as he was struggling right now. A small chuckle escaped my monstrous bug-like jaws.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Nggh…!"
The Emperor smiled while evading and blocking the explosions, but they continued to fall over him, quickly pushing him towards alternate trajectories, he began getting lost around the battlefield. No matter how hard he was trying to slay my monsters, they exploded after being slashed into pieces, and these tiny pieces left turned into more MP for Silva to bring them back!
It was a near endless cycle, if it wasn't because Silva can't get the complete MP from the monster corpses, but only a bit of it. Nonetheless, I was also supplying her with Mana from my Draining powers, as I was getting it from the polished weapons that slain the human soldiers back in the elven army. But even now, this wasn't going to get us going forever, the Mana was still not enough to support Silva to do this infinitely, we can keep it up for around ten more minutes before we run out or probably have too little to continue in mass.
We have to kill this Emperor before that happens.
