Chapter 15
“What… exactly are you…”
A hint of fear seeped into the masked man’s voice, but mostly it was confusion. Theoretically, a creature like a vampire couldn’t possibly walk under sunlight. He suspected his eyes were playing tricks on him.
“I don’t know, but you’re definitely not anything good!”
Relying on my wings to leap, my charging speed was several times faster. In the blink of an eye, my small fist hammered onto the masked man’s giant sword. As he stumbled backward, I jumped and flipped behind him, lifting my leg to kick his butt.
“Monster, don’t underestimate a Demon Hunter!!!”

The masked man’s speed suddenly increased several times over. My vision was abruptly covered by the broad blade of the giant sword, and then I felt the pain of an abrasion. I lost my balance and sat down hard on the ground.
“Thud.”
My calf fell to the ground and turned into bats.
“Hahaha… As expected, I wasn’t seeing things. It is a vampire.”
After several clashes, although the masked man could continuously inflict damage on me, due to my extremely fast regeneration speed, he was just draining his stamina along with me. However, compared to me, using sword skills meant he couldn’t keep fighting like this forever; he might even run out of stamina before I do.
The masked man looked up with a bitter smile, revealing his stubbly chin. The eye holes of his mask aimed at the burning sun in the sky.
“Oh God, do you not love us anymore? To let a vampire walk under your glorious light… how unfair, how unreasonable!”
His hand, covered in calluses from wielding a sword, reached inside his trench coat and pulled out a bottle of clear liquid. He uncorked it and poured it onto the blade of his giant sword. The liquid slid down to the edge with gravity.
That was likely Holy Water, blessed by a priest and specifically used against vampires.
“Although I don’t know how you are immune to sunlight, you seem to be just a fledgling. You don’t know magic, you don’t know Bloodline Powers, and you don’t even know sword skills. As a Demon Hunter, I will eradicate a heretic like you right here. You are too dangerous.”
Did he figure it out? But what are Bloodline Powers? Sounds like something akin to superpowers.

The masked man’s giant sword flung out two rapidly flying white sword beams, flying toward me with the momentum to slice through the air. I immediately relied on my wings to leap up.
A large black shadow loomed over me, blocking the sunlight. The sharp giant blade chopped toward my forehead.
Crap. Instinct drove me to block with both hands.
“Ugh…”
My petite figure crashed to the ground. Stones and dirt smashed against the windows of the surrounding houses, creating sounds of shattering glass mixed with the crying of children inside.
It hurts. This time it felt like I was ruthlessly cut by someone. Moreover, the recovery speed of my severed hands slowed down significantly. The black bats flapped their little wings by my hands, delaying fusion. The clothes on my chest were torn by the giant sword, revealing the white underwear and pink panties underneath. My tender skin was exposed to the air. Even the usually obedient dark matter that automatically repaired things wouldn’t listen to my commands, merely meandering around the tears in the clothes. Dark red blood slowly slid onto the ground.
“Clack, clack, clack.”
The masked man’s metal boots crushed the gravel on the ground as he slowly walked toward me.
At this moment, I couldn’t care less about the shame of exposing my skin. Even if the wounds could be repaired, the physical fatigue was accumulating constantly. Standing up was a struggle.
“Huff… huff… Don’t stand up again, monster.”
The masked man seemed to have consumed a lot of energy too. How could a normal person have endless stamina to wield a giant sword? However, it seems I’ve run out of room to dodge first; my wings feel heavy and powerless.

The giant sword emitted a brilliant light.

This is…
White light attacked me, wanting to burn every inch of my skin and turn me into ashes.
Damn it…
Will I die if I take this hit head-on? As a Demon Lord, how can I die here…
I’ve only been alive for half a damn day! Are you kidding me!
I haven’t even learned magic! I haven’t even enjoyed life! Even if I’m ultimately defeated by a Hero, before that happens, this isn’t the ending I want!
The light cannon flashed past, and the smoke and dust cleared. A strange black light shot straight into the sky, darkness dyeing the entire bright sky.
Everyone fighting on the rooftops was attracted by this pillar of light.
The masked man stared blankly at the pitch-black long scythe within the black pillar before him. In a trance, the tip of the giant sword in his hand drooped to the ground.
“Impossible… impossible, impossible impossible impossible I can’t believe it!!!”
He covered his head like a madman and howled.
