Chapter 39 : Fenrir Subjugation Battle , Part 3

The prolonged battle, and with it, the diminishing stamina of Fenrir.

Of course, my stamina was also rapidly depleting.

In Blood Carnival, there is no separate class for healers.

So how does the tank holding the raid boss recover their stamina? Blood Carnival leaves all healing methods to equipment item effects and recovery potions.

But, in this world, there is no equipment item that can recover stamina. I drink potions and recover some health, but it couldn’t keep up with the stamina Fenrir was draining. It’s like pouring water into a bottomless well.

“Ugh…”

I groan and take a large step back.

Then, as if to fill the void I left, my subordinates step forward.

Small girls gather together, spreading a massive shadow.

But—

[Graaar!]

Boom!

“Hek!”

“Heek…!”

“Hweng…!”

With a single strike, my subordinates are scattered.

The children, having inherited my power, use shadow-based skills, but their power cannot match mine.

They are the weaker version of me.

Naturally, it’s impossible for them to withstand Fenrir’s attack.

But thanks to the brief opening created by my subordinates, I get a moment to catch my breath.

The vampire’s natural regenerative ability, combined with the effects of the potions, causes my stamina to quickly rise.

I confirmed that my body had recovered to normal levels.

I charged toward Fenrir once again.

Kaang!

Fenrir’s sharp teeth clash with my black katana.

Opening its mouth to block the attack, Fenrir glares at me with bloodshot eyes.

Keep attacking!

We can win!

The progress of the Fenrir hunt is stable.

If it continues like this without any major changes, our victory is guaranteed.

It seemed that the other vampires were having the same thoughts, as awkward smiles spread across their faces.

[Ke-eeek!]

Vampires’ attacks pour down onto Fenrir’s body.

Arms wrapped in red bloodlust, thin black shadows spread like blades, and scorching fire arrows.

Weak attacks gather and build, creating a single result.

Fenrir’s stamina begins to drain quickly.

As its health decreases, its attack power and speed increase.

Every time its health drops below a certain threshold, a new phase change occurs.

Fenrir is following that exact system.

The stronger Fenrir gets, the greater the burden placed on me.

Boom!

“Ugh…!”

A strike far stronger than before.

I stagger back.

My body sways violently, and my vision blurs.

Fenrir begins to approach, as if targeting my weakened state.

In that moment, my subordinates appear and form a barrier made of shadows.

When I first faced Fenrir, I could hold out for about a minute on my own.

But now, how long can I last?

I can’t say exactly, but it seems like it wouldn’t even be 30 seconds.

Boom-

“Hweeeek…!”

“Hugh…!”

“Hwang…!”

The sight of the girls collapsing with a single attack from Fenrir.

They take heavy hits, blood spilling from their mouths, and melt into the black shadows.

There’s no time to catch my breath.

I drink a potion and immediately charge toward Fenrir.

Boom!

The potions I have are running out quickly.

The subordinates who have been knocked out are not recovering.

But for now, I can still endure.

I leave all the defense to the shadows.

My hands move solely toward Fenrir.

The moment I stop attacking, Fenrir’s aggro will snap to me, sweeping away the nearby vampires.

“Ugh, Aaaah!”

Of course, I can’t hold Fenrir’s attention indefinitely.

The scream of a vampire who tried to attack Fenrir.

In the brief gap between attacks,

Fenrir turns its body and breaks the vampire’s waist in half.

Crack!

The vampire collapses in a grotesque manner.

But he didn’t die.

Even though I might not be able to fight right now, I will soon be able to return to this battle as time passes.

I quickly moved and threw the blood-soaked vampire far away.

While I was frantically pounding Fenrir’s body, a sweet smell began to waft from afar, making me alert.

There is only one scent that vampires would react to. The smell of human blood. One? No, ten, no, more than that.

Ssssh!

“Ugh…!”

I bit my lip and swung my katana. Fenrir’s attacks became even more intense.

As if not allowing me to be distracted while facing him, he fiercely pressed on. Why is the smell of human blood suddenly wafting in?

It didn’t take long for my question to be answered. Bang-! A sudden mysterious gunshot.

With that gunshot, lights began to flash in the darkened city. Bang~! Ratatatat~! The black sky flashed with light, and a rough roar echoed.

It looked like lightning was striking. Immediately after, the vampires fighting alongside me began to fall.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

With a heavy thud, parts of their bodies burst.

“This…!”

The gunshot that came with the smell of human blood. At the same time, my comrades began to fall.

Human!

It’s a human attack!

My arm…!

My arm…!

It’s a silver bullet!

Regeneration has slowed!!!

The screams of the vampires echo.

The smile of victory that had been spreading on my lips disappears.

Replacing it is extreme confusion and the fear of death.

Fenrir’s remaining health is only 30%.

I bit my lip.

If only I had a little more time, I would have succeeded in subjugating Fenrir.

Bang-!

The moment a single clear gunshot rings out.

The warning from the demon eye turns my chest red.

An accurate sniper targeting my heart. I immediately use a shadow to protect my back.

How did they know?

How did the humans know?

I thought of the clans that had proposed the Fenrir subjugation.

Surely, one of them leaked this information to the humans.

Why?

Why did they betray their kin or their allied forces?

What gain did they have…

“Lady Charlotte…!”

At that moment, Aurel’s voice broke my reverie.

“Ah…”

I let out a short groan and looked at Fenrir’s arm. The attack with raised claws had begun. In that brief moment.

An attack aimed at the moment I was distracted.

I cannot block it.

The shadow is also being used to defend against the humans’ sniping.

Crunch!

With a horrible sound, my body shakes violently. The pain arrived late.

Five scars spread wide on the upper body, towards the chest.

It was the trace where Fenrir’s claws had grazed. Red blood flowed through the torn clothes.

Given time, the wounds would heal, but I lacked time now. “Ugh…!” Fenrir’s relentless attacks and the humans’ sniping continue.

At this rate, I will be defeated. I jumped in place and climbed onto Fenrir’s back.

[Roaaar!]

Was it because I suddenly disappeared from his sight? Fenrir started to become even more furious.

If I fall, it’s over. I clung to Fenrir’s neck using the blade of the katana.

I couldn’t cut through the thick neck muscles and solid bones, but I could at least keep my small body from falling off Fenrir.

“Move out of the way!!!”

I shouted the warning while hanging onto Fenrir’s neck.

Fenrir, losing his clear target, went berserk.

With his long arms swinging wildly, no one could approach Fenrir. I frowned and lifted Fenrir’s gaze upwards.

Bang-!

Ratatatat!

The barrage of bullets from the humans continued. I made Fenrir aware of the attack.

At that moment, Fenrir started to move as I intended. Boom-! Stretching his thick legs, he began to run forward!

“Lady Charlotte!!!”

“Don’t follow me!”

I stopped the yellow wolf from urgently following. I didn’t know the exact number of humans.

But with this Fenrir, he could take care of all the human players gathered there.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

A straight charge toward the humans. No matter what was in front, nothing could stop Fenrir’s movement.

“Ugh…!”

I held onto Fenrir’s back with all my strength. My light body shook up and down but didn’t fall off until the end.

Fenrir, running quickly, soon reached the building where the humans were perched.

The number of humans confirmed through the demon eye was 52.

They were all gathered in one building.

The humans who were attempting to snipe from the rooftop looked down at Fenrir with a bewildered expression.

Fenrir did not stop his charge. He attempted to leap high into the sky in the same position he was running.

Fenrir’s massive body quickly soared and clung to the building’s exterior wall.

Boom-!

The run resumed in that state. Fenrir, running along the wall, roared towards the humans.

[Roar!]

“Kill! Kill! It’s Fenrir!”

“We need to run!”

The humans, panicked by Fenrir’s roar. Some began to turn around, grabbing their guns, as if trying to flee.

Of course, not all were like that. Some turned their guns, which were aimed at the vampires, towards Fenrir.

Of course, I had no intention of just watching their actions. Swish- The enormous wings of shadow spread behind me.

Bang-!

I used the shadow to block the bullets pouring towards Fenrir. The humans’ gaze finally turned to me.

I gave a small smile as I saw their gazes. Fenrir’s remaining health was about 15%.

I would never let the humans take down Fenrir.

[Roar!]

With a fierce roar, Fenrir leaped onto the building’s rooftop. The human massacre that began immediately after.

Every time Fenrir’s claws flashed, human arms and legs were torn and flew. I, too, couldn’t just rest.

Using the shadow to protect Fenrir’s body, I also retrieved the humans’ limbs to replenish the lost blood.

Bang!

Ratatat!

Boom-!

The barrage of bullets flying from all directions and the large explosion with the smell of gunpowder.

The humans desperately fought against Fenrir, but it didn’t take long for them to be annihilated.

The silver bullets used by humans cause significant damage to vampires, werewolves, and hybrids.

I protected Fenrir with the shadow, but I couldn’t block all the attacks. Fenrir also suffered significant damage from the silver bullets.

Fenrir’s remaining health is 5%.

[Groan…]

Fenrir staggered as if exhausted. Now, I could definitely win. I sank my teeth into Fenrir’s nape.

“Haah!”

[Roar!]

The sudden attempt to suck blood.

Fenrir twisted his body in resistance, but I never let go.

Sharp claws tore my arms and legs, but I endured the pain with my eyes tightly shut.

This isn’t enough.

I moved the shadow to bind Fenrir’s hands and feet.

Now that Fenrir was exhausted, my shadow’s power was enough to restrain him.

Of course, the attack didn’t end there. The minions began to emerge from the shadows wrapped around his arms and legs.

The children who had retired woke up.

“Haah!”

“Haa!”

“Hah!”

The children opened their mouths wide, following my lead, and sank their teeth into Fenrir’s body.

Fenrir twisted his body and threw the children off, but if one fell, two appeared, and if two fell, four appeared.

The children’s health quickly recovered using the blood sucked from Fenrir.

Slurp-

Slurp-

Slurp-

How much time had passed like that?

Eventually, Fenrir’s massive body collapsed onto the cold cement floor. Boom-!
