Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

-----

Eleanora had sneaked behind the Imp that was firing magic, it was a Mage-type Imp, apparently. Much like normal humans, Imps had something similar to Talents, sometimes there would be those more talented at certain tasks, this was mostly common with all Demon races.

The Mage Imp was wearing robes that enhanced magic power and also a staff that increased his total demonic energy capacity so he could conjure more demon magic, it was a rather obvious build he had there, and Eleanora decided to take him down as quickly as possible because of his annoying nature as a mage.

BOOM! CLASH!

"That damn Imp Mage is so annoying, he keeps firing demonic flames!"

"Damn it… they're too strong!"

"How can we even fight against these?!"

"My spirit was knocked out with a single swipe of their weapons!"

BOOOOM!!!

Suddenly, before Eleanora could reach her target, the Imp Mage gathered his demon energy and fired a larger than usual demonic flame, clashing against one of the hunters struggling to keep a defensive stance against the Imps.

"Aaaagghh! It hurts!"

The flames of demons had a hard time sticking in a person's body or clothes, but the impact of their flames was the problem, they held a strong curse that inhibited regeneration naturally, and even made wounds rot, burns from these flames were often lethal.

"HAH!"

I roared loudly as I pushed forward, clashing against one of the Imps near the man that had been hit with the fireball, I kicked the Imp in the ankles and made it trip over, the other Hunters quickly attempted to skewer it alive, but the damn agile thing sneaked away in time while throwing a knife, which hit another hunter in the leg.

CLASH!

"Ugh! Damn thing!"

"Aaagh! Help! Help meeee!"

The hunter that was burned had his entire hands burned, the wounds had already begun to rot, so I quickly decided to cauterize the wounds first by burning all the necrosis away.

"This will hurt you, prepare yourself! Ember!" I said.

"Eh?! GYAAAAHH…!"

The hunter began to cry like a baby as his hands were burned, the necrosis quickly turned into ashes as I enveloped his hands in healing light after that, fusing several tier 1 spells together, the pain receded and his hands healed back, but they were now completely covered in burn scars.

"Ahhh… T-They're good? I don't feel any pain…" he said in surprise.

"I had to cauterize the putrid flesh, I apologize if I surprised you." I said.

"T-Thanks!" he said, quickly standing up and clashing against the Imps again.

I moved towards the hunter with the knife on his right leg, as he began to look feverish all over his face. The knife was most likely infected with some sort of poison or even worse, the Imp's feces or piss. Which can most likely act as a poison as well due to the amount of bacteria it has, entering an open wound would infect it quickly.

I quickly pulled out the knife mercilessly as the man rested over the floor, he twisted his body in pain as he gasped for air.

"Hahhh… Aghh… Just a single wound can kill us… damn demons!" he muttered.

"I won't let you die, calm down." I said.

I quickly saw a fountain of blood coming out of his wound, which was already infected and smelled badly. Without Eleanora to help using her blood manipulation, I decided to simply burn his wound until all the rotten flesh was turned to ashes through my ability to control mana.

"Ember."

FLAASH"

"Uuaaaggh…! Unngh…! Y-You're cauterizing it?! Agh…!"

"Calm down and remain in silence." I said, as I quickly used my own knife to cut down the rotten flesh while it burned, and then, I sealed the wound once more with fire and covered the burned flesh with healing magic and the help of First Aid.

"Uugh… Ahhh… Agh…"

However, he was still feverish and most of the infection might had already reached his bloodstream, that's why I quickly infused some Qi into his body and forcefully awakened his Qi Core in the process.

FLAAASH!

"Agh! W-What is thissss?! Unngg…"

"Shut up for once. Seriously, you guys are such crybabies…" I sighed, letting myself rant a bit, as I let the life energy deal with his fever, that should be enough.

I moved away leaving him in the backlines, as I saw Eleanora acting.

Eleanora quickly sneaked behind the Imp that was firing demon fireballs, as her Blood Threads moved swiftly and stealthily around him, in a second, the Imp was thrown into the ground and pushed down, his face clashed over the hard rock beneath his feet, breaking his long nose in the process.

CLASH!

"GRYAA!"

The Imp looked at his back to see Eleanora behind him, only for her claws to reach him in an instant, piercing through his neck and slashing his head off. I guess she didn't need the Hunters help.

"GRUUAH…"

The last groan of agony made the other three Imps fighting the Hunters glance behind them for a split of a second, finding their mage comrade more than dead, as Eleanora quickly grabbed his head and threw it at them for an even greater fear factor.

"Here's your friend." She said to them int heir same language. The Imp's faces twisted in utter anger and frustration as they began to go wild, their barbarically attacked the hunters even more furiously than before, only for their wild nature to be their doom.

"WOOF!"

A roaring red wolf made of flames reached one of them from behind, as the Imp was diving on his own madness he was incapable of detecting the dog reaching him and biting his neck from behind, while using his claws to slash his back and burn through his flesh.

"GRYAAAA!"

The Imp groaned in agony as it quickly fell into the ground, struggling to survive, it hit the red dog hard with his knife, making it poof out of existence, only for the figure of Gradus to emerge behind his disappearing spirit.
