UNDYING WARLORD

Chapter 269 Headshots



“Are you sure that we will be alright?” Kuhn asked the group as they walked through the Shikan plains.

It was impossible for him to hide his emotions. His voice was cracking and he didn’t feel confident of killing a batch of Vampires.

‘Why does Dilan think that I can kill them? It’s not like I’m strong in any way…’ He thought, oblivious to the fact that most Ascenders in Dilan’s group looked up to the young Kuhn.

Dilan merely smiled at Kuhn’s words before answering with a simple shrug.

“Who knows? Maybe the vampire will turn you into their livestock, and you will have to serve them for eternity?” Dilan joked around, only to realize that Kuhn looked at him with wide eyes.

“…I was joking,” Dilan added hurriedly to make Kuhn feel less alarmed.

A day had passed since Williams, Ailee, and the others had arrived at the Blue Star camp. After Dilan had revealed all pieces of information, including that there was some sort of ‘Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord’ which the Vampires wanted to enter, everyone was shocked, but their trust in Dilan was more than enough for them to believe whatever he said.

Dilan felt that this was a bit foolish, but he was happy about their unwavering trust in him, nonetheless.

They departed early the next morning to walk the huge distance of 300 kilometers so that they could enter the base of the Blood Legion and kill them all. They could use cars but the detour would force them to end up being slower than by running straight through the Shikan plains.

The Blood Legion resided in the base of the last human camp they had annihilated. It was not difficult to find them, and when it was afternoon, they weren’t even 20 kilometers away from the base.

Right now, Dilan and the others were inside a large building, right in the middle of a city that had been flattened to the ground. Only a few buildings were left standing, and the one they were inside provided the best view of the Shikan plains, and the city itself.

A few monsters were rummaging through the surrounding area but only a few would dare to attack Dilan and the others. Most monsters knew who they could face, and what kind of existences they should avoid.

Only Silver Tier-1 monsters with special abilities would dare to attack the group when Dilan was present. As for Gold Tier-1 monsters, there weren’t many in the Shikan plains.

Ailee had gone scouting, while the others finished their final preparations for battle.

Silas’ hands were still trembling, however, that was not just because of fear! He tried to hide it, but Silas was excited.

His life before the Primordial Ascension had been boring, to put it simply. There were only a few things he liked because his school life had been similar to a horror trip. Silas never shared details of his personal life with others, and he was dangerous in the eyes of most people.

After all, someone who was powerful but stayed tight-lipped about himself was definitely not trustworthy in the eyes of frightened humans.

But Dilan didn’t care about that. He knew that Silas was a damaged child, just like he, and many others were. The past actions, fortune, and misfortune forged the character and behavior of an individual in the present. Silas was quiet and aloof, but he had begun to fight for his right to life.

This was something Dilan liked, which was another reason for him to think that it was time for Silas to face evil humans. If he couldn’t overcome his problem with humans, and could not muster the courage to kill them, it was fine, but Dilan would have to change his plans accordingly.

‘Well it doesn’t look like this will be necessary.’ Dilan merely thought as he switched his focus to Ailee.

She was running as fast as she could while tightly holding her bow, and sporting a small smirk on her face.

“Is someone pursuing her? Should we take action?” Silas asked in a calm manner as his eyes turned yellowish.

Oliver jumped up from the ground the moment he heard that someone was after the woman he liked. He stiffened and swallowed nervously as worry gleamed in his eyes.

“She will be fine. It looks like she just didn’t feel like carrying the corpses to us after defeating them. Her Penta-Item pouches are filled to the brim.” Dilan smiled faintly.

Only a few seconds passed before everyone could clearly see Ailee beaming with joy. She was pursued by not only one but a total of three Ascenders. Their traits resembled that of humans, and one would almost believe that they were actually still humans.

However, one of the ‘humans’ had an arrow stuck in his throat, while the Ascender in front of all had been attacked by an arrow as well. His head had been pierced by an arrow!

“Two Vampires, and a servant, who was lucky enough to receive a bit of vampire blood. Interesting.” Dilan mused as he clarified what kind of existences Ailee was about to face.

At the sight of the Vampires, everyone flinched. Even Williams, who felt as if he had been mentally prepared for such a scenario, was not able to hide his shock.

‘Hearing something and witnessing it seems to be a bit different…’ Williams thought as his complexion paled. When he cast a hesitant glance at the others he could see that they were even worse off. Only Dilan was smiling.

His body leaned forward when Ailee’s steps slowed down. She turned her body in an instant, pulled back her bow, and manifested a total of three arrows at once.

Dilan smiled when he saw this, as she released two arrows in an instant. They pierced straight through the center of the two Vampires’ foreheads.

“Good shot,” Dilan mumbled before he saw that the third arrow missed its target completely.

But that was far from problematic because the two Vampires slumped to the ground as their minds had stopped working momentarily.

“Sorry, you’ll have to die,” Ailee mumbled though she looked anything but sorry. Her hand had moved with a lightning-fast speed, and nocked an arrow on the bowstring. Ailee had pulled back the bowstring and fired the arrow in a single smooth motion, piercing the heart of the Vampire’s servant.

“Let’s go down, I want to show you guys how to kill the Vampires properly,” Dilan stated before approaching the window in front of him. He broke the window frame with a push of his flat hand before he jumped down the building.

Afterward, he disappeared from the eyes of his people and reappeared right in front of Ailee.

“Didn’t the Vampires die already? I mean, isn’t their brain destroyed?” Kuhn asked in confusion, but Silas and the others shook their heads.

“If Ailee wanted to kill them, her wind arrows would have imploded the moment they lodged deep into the Vampires’ brains. They can still heal from that injury…apparently.” Oliver explained before jumping out of the building.

A moment later he disappeared into the shadows of the building before re-emerging on the ground.

On the other hand, Williams just shook his head at this sight.

“What a show off.” He muttered while smiling faintly as he walked down the stairways, followed by Kuhn and Silas, who wouldn’t dare to jump from the 8th floor.

They were not insane, after all!

“If I had an ability like Oliver, I would probably do it as well,” Kuhn muttered, feeling sad that Oliver could show off his abilities like this.

However, Silas shook his head before he corrected Kuhn.

“Who cares about that ability? With Dilan’s stats, all kinds of abilities can become overly powerful!!”

After hearing the two, Williams shook his head once again.

‘Dilan definitely brought me over as a babysitter for these two and Oliver…’
