Hitman with a Badass System
Chapter 741: The Blood Prince meets The Dark QueenGaya calmly waited for the blood prince. Despite the vampires surrounding them, Saber saw no signs of fear in Azazel's eyes. The vampires cowered in the shadows. Since Saber, an elder, brought them to their castle, the vampires dared not to raise a finger. However, they all waited for the blood prince to appear, wondering what he would do when he saw these new guests.
After a while, a new group of vampires entered the castle. Unlike the vampires that welcomed them, these looked like savages. They wore nothing but black tunics to cover their privates and painted themselves with blood. The moment they entered the hall, the strong stench of blood nauseated Azazel's senses. The black-clothed vampires took a step back, making way for this new group. Gaya noticed a sliver of disgust in the black-robed vampires' eyes. Judging by how the two groups hissed at each other, it was obvious to Gaya that they hated each other. Something told Gaya this new breed of vampire belonged to the blood prince.
Soon, the hall began to tremble as Gaya heard heavy footsteps. The temperature in the room slowly rose. Saber took a step to the side. His eyes glimmered with fear. All the vampires knelt down when they saw the Blood Prince. But the Blood Prince himself trembled with fury, looking at Gaya.
The blood prince looked a bit weaker and lacked an arm since Michael ripped it off. Thanks to the Dark Flames, the Blood Prince could not heal or regrow his limb. Seeing how brazenly the woman sits on the table, the Blood Prince's killing intent shot through the roof. At the same time, the smell of their blood mesmerized him as though he was slowly getting high by the aroma. He knew one thing for sure, these two weren't humans.
"How does the Blood Prince win a battle? Single-handedly," Gaya chuckled. The vampires were stunned to see the woman ridiculing the Blood Prince in his own castle. Although she had a powerful aura around her, it was nothing compared to the aura around the Blood Prince. Yet, the woman had the guts to make fun of him,
"Oh, sorry, I really shouldn't do that. I came here in peace. I am unarmed," She emphasized the word 'unarmed', raising her two hands.
The Blood Prince's body began to tremble.

The Blood Prince couldn't take anymore as he tried to dash at Gaya. he was about to grab her and crush her to death when suddenly a bright golden light shot out from her hand.
"ARGH!" The Blood Prince screamed as his skin began to smoke. Saber saw a large cube in the Dark Queen's hands. The golden light came through the hole in the cube. The light mimicked the sunlight. Hence, the blood prince started to cover his face as his body was slowly burnt by the light.
The vampires immediately leaped away from the Blood Prince. They hissed at the sunlight, hiding in the corners of the hall. As seconds passed, the light glowed brighter and brighter with high intensity. Gaya threw the box in the air as it floated right above the blood prince, out of his reach. It created a spotlight on the Blood Prince, trapping him within. The Blood Prince couldn't move a muscle. All of his strength was redirected to keep himself from burning. Although the sunlight wasn't enough to kill a Half Immortal like the Blood Prince, the longer he was exposed to the sunlight, the higher the chance of his body entering into a slumber to recover. It would take centuries for the Blood Prince's body to head, and that too if he was kept in complete darkness.
The Blood Prince roared.
"Who are you?' The Blood Prince managed to growl,
"Stop…It…hurts…"
Gaya didn't give a damn about the Blood Prince's pain. In fact, she wanted him to suffer before he died. Plus, she wanted the vampires to witness absolute power so they would follow the Dark Lord with loyalty and fear.
"This is what happens when you mess with the wrong people," said Gaya.
"Saber," she turned her gaze toward Saber.
"Why don't you show your gift to everyone in the room?"
Saber nodded. Everyone locked their gazes with Saber as he slowly walked toward the spotlight and the Blood Prince. On his way, Saber rolled his sleeves to his elbow. Under everyone's gazes, Saber put his exposed hand into the light. The vampires expected Saber's hand to burn to a crisp. However, on the contrary, nothing happened to his hand. The vampires were stunned. Some even wondered whether the light was really harmful to a vampire. Thankfully, the blood prince's body kept smoking. Otherwise, the vampires wouldn't have believed the light was indeed harmful to them.
The Blood Prince could hardly move his head. Still, he managed to glance at Saber's hand. Just like the vampires, the Blood Prince was stunned. The light burnt his skin as the same as the sunlight, yet it did not harm Saber.
"Did you see that Blood Prince? Saber is not harmed by the light. We would have given you this gift if you weren't such an asshole," said Gaya.
"I never even met you, bitch," The Blood Prince growled.
Gaya almost forgot that the Blood Prince met them as Ghost and Aelia, not as The Dark Lord and the Dark Queen. Gaya did not respond to the Blood Prince. Instead, she took out the golden spear Michael used to kill the Half Immortal elf from her space ring.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe jumped down from the table, gracefully walking toward the Blood Prince. She fiddled with the golden spear on her way. She poked him with the spear when she got close to the Blood Prince. The Blood Prince hissed but couldn't do anything to stop her.
"What the hell are you waiting for? Kill this traitor and this bitch," growled the Blood Prince. Immediately, the red-painted vampires of the Blood Prince dashed forward to attack Gaya and Saber. Instead, Saber could order his men to retaliate, a bolt of lightning struck the red vampire. The bolt flew past Saber's face, sending a chill down his spine. The bolt struck the vampire and penetrated his head. The bolt went through another vampire before disappearing. Two vampires collapsed to the ground with fist-sized holes in their heads.
The red vampires halted their steps as they were stunned. Saber utilized their shock and dashed at them with inhuman speed. His figure became blurred as two fangs grew out of his mouth. The next moment, Gaya only noticed several bloody veils of mist above the red vampires' heads. Even she couldn't see him killing the vampires. He was simply too fast. In a blink of an eye, Saber killed all five red vampires. When he returned to his previous place, his entire body was drenched in blood. Just the sight of Saber covered in blood made the vampires tremble in fear.
"It's time to put you out of your misery…slowly," Gaya grabbed the Blood Prince's throat before slowly sending the spear through his chest. The runes on the spear glowed brighter and brighter as the Blood Prince growled. Blood slowly tricked down his chest. He couldn't move a muscle. His life flashed across his eyes. The vampires he created died within a few seconds. Saber, one of the elders, betrayed him and his minions never came to his aid.
Gaya twisted the spear to inflict more pain. Surprisingly, Trista, the brunette vampire, and friend of Lenora appeared in the hall. Her eyes widened at the sight of Gaya killing the blood prince.
"Calm down, Trista," Saber quickly said before Trista did something she would regret later. Trista was unable to comprehend what was happening before her eyes. Saber, of all people, stood beside a creepy-looking woman and man and watched the Blood Prince slowly getting stabbed to death. Not that she had any love for the Blood Prince, but it was shocking to Trista. To be honest, Trista hated the Blood Prince to the core since he killed Lenora. Little did Trista know that the Blood Prince kept Lenora's head in his room. In a sense, Lenora was still alive. But no one except Ingram and the Blood knew about her state. At Least that's what the Blood Prince thought.
The blood trickled down from the blood prince's chest, forming a blood puddle under him. Usually, the vampires wouldn't drink another vampire's blood, but the sweet aroma from the blood prince's blood really made it hard for them to resist.
Even Trista's fangs slowly grew in size. Gaya saw the light of life slowly leaving the Blood Prince's eyes. The new device built by Michael and Elidyr surprised Gaya. She had her doubts when Michael said this device would create a light as powerful as the sunlight. But looking at the device at work, she was surprised. With this device, the vampires could pose no threat to them. Not only vampires but even the undead would also be powerless. Trista was afraid even to take a step forward. She stood at the entrance with the rest of the vampires.
At that moment, Gaya slowly drew the spear out of the Blood Prince's chest. She swung the spear, splattering the blood across the hall. Afterward, she stabbed the Blood Prince in the throat.
"Argh!" The Blood Prince growled. She forcefully cut the Blood Prince's throat to sever his head clean off. Since the Blood Prince was a Half Immortal, it took almost every bit of strength in Gaya's body to cut his head off. Blood sprayed out of his neck, painting her black armor red. Yet, she didn't even flick as she continued to cut his head. Trista shivered. She watched the Blood Prince brutally getting butchered in his castle surrounded by his men. She simply couldn't believe it. However, she trusted Saber enough to stay still.
Finally, Gaya lopped off the head and raised it in the air for everyone to see. The Blood Prince's eyes were still wide open and filled with pain and anger.
"Now we can talk about the future of all the nightwalkers," said Gaya.
