Picking up Girls With My System-Chapter 376 Winning The Battle!
Arthur had killed many vampires, and although their blood essence flew toward him, he was no longer getting mad! It turned out the second part of the inheritance only had one technique, the one to control the madness, and the rest was only good memories the Blood Monarch had, meaning it was an inheritance Arthur could fully possess without the help of Ikarus.
Now with his new technique, which was a chant spoken in an unknown language, which created a Blood Rune on Arthur's body, making it so that he did not go mad, it was easy for him to fight as the worries of turning insane were gone!
Arthur and Valethar destroyed the vampire army until the point where only the rank three vampires remained, and those would be harder to kill.
A blood spear flew, piercing through Arthur's left leg, hindering his movements, and making it bleed like a waterfall. Valethar looked at him and said, "are you okay? These are strong vampires, it seems."
"Yes, I am fine! They are strong, but we are stronger.
The vampire that attacked Arthur was smiling, happy to see that his spell worked! Three more vampires were beside him, and they were all laughing!
That was the perfect chance for Arthur to make his move. He teleported, appearing closer to the vampires, who could not believe something as big as Arthur could be so fast!
They did not have time to answer it, and a vast mouth went in their direction, eating four rank three vampires simultaneously! That was their end, as no one could escape Placidusax's belly.
Valethar saw it and was shocked! Sure, he could also eat those vampires, but it would only be a normal bite, and the vampires could attack his stomach, making it worse. But Arthur? He was Placidusax and had a unique devouring technique that had changed multiple times but worked just the same.
"Where are we?" One of the vampires said, looking around, trying to understand the situation.
It was dark, and even their vampire night vision did not work there.
"We are inside the belly of that dragon. Quick, we must find a weak spot and attack it! What a dumb creature. I thought dragons were wise?"
They believed Arthur had made a mistake, but after five seconds, their bodies started to wither, as if their essence was leaving their bodies.
"What is this? What is happening?"
That was the power of the Bloody Devour, the new and improved devouring skill! It devoured the blood essence of any living creature, killing them in the process and granting Arthur free attributes and other techniques from time to time.
The number of rank three vampires diminished after those four got killed inside Arthur's belly, so the fight was getting nasty for the side of the vampires.
There was a vampire, who had yet to move, and was the person in charge of all the other vampires. The strongest vampire beneath the rank four, but even he did not believe it was a fight they could win, so he retreated with the other vampires.
"The dragons will see! This is not your era anymore, and you will not rule the continent; we, the vampires, will!" the vampire leader yelled as he and the other survivors left the battlefield as quickly as they could.
A victory! Arthur and Valethar had won an impossible fight, but now there was one more problem -- the spell the Blood Monarch placed on Valethar!
Arthur was there and was considered someone who got the inheritance, so Valethar had to attack him!
"Lord, I cannot control the spell! Can you do something?" Valethar yelled before his right paw attacked Arthur, who was quick enough to defend it using his arm.
"Yes, I can. There are some memories inside the inheritance. To make the spell stop working, I need to make you pass out. I am sorry, Valethar, but we will have to fight!"
That was a fight no one could get in the way of. Arthur and Valethar exchanged paw attacks, and just the impact of it destroyed the surrounding area, and it was so loud those adventurers, who were already far away from the battlefield, could hear it!
Valethar's claws pierced through Arthur's scales, creating a terrible wound. But Arthur would not take a free hit, and he did the unthinkable!
Arthur merged all the essences he had: the fire essence, the ice essence, the lightning essence, the wood essence, the moon essence, and finally, the blood essence. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶
All those essences fused on his claws, creating a rainbow of colors. That was one of the strongest attacks he could do, and when that palm touched Valethar's chest, he crashed like a falling plane!
His chest? Open, bleeding like a red waterfall! The impact of his body falling on the ground created a huge hole, and he was no longer awake.
"A good thing I only used half of the attack's power, or else Valethar could be in deep trouble," thought Arthur as he changed back to his elf form and used some of his healing spells to make Valethar's wound stop bleeding. 𝑓𝗿𝐞𝘦𝘄ｅ𝘣n𝘰𝘷eƖ.c𝘰𝗺

"What happened?" Valethar said as he woke up and saw an elf putting some green mixture on his wound.
"I attacked you, and you fell, passing out. The spell the Blood Monarch used is now gone, so you are okay. Can you change to a humanoid form too?" Arthur asked.
"I can, yes, but not now. I need to heal more first."
"I see. We fought well back then. Are you willing to go with me to the northern mountains in the future and meet with the other dragons?"
"Absolutely! You have yet to go there?"
"Yes, I only recently got to know there are dragons there. But first things first, we need to find the three dragon priests and save them from those adventurers. How long till you heal?"
"Healing completely will take some time, but I am good enough to fly. Hop on my back, and let's go."
A wounded dragon flew up in the sky with a blond elf on his back.
