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

-----

"[Holy Ray]! [Shine]!"

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

F L A A A A S H!

As Erdrich devastated half of the Hobgoblin's squadron, Elizabeth unleashed powerful rays of light from her staff and shining, blinding light to disorient the monsters and make them become easier to handle, all while her three spirits attacked the goblins with their own attacks and magic.

"Ooh… So many goblins!"

Her Little Angelic Guardian, which resembled a cherubin, utilized enchanting magic and barrier magic to protect Elizabeth and those around from direct damage. Meanwhile, the enchanting magic made all of us stronger, boosting our stats and magic range.

"It has been a while since I've fought so many monsters before! That old man spent his last years relaxing too much! I've missed a master's young years of adventure and thrill!"

At the same time, the Kid Holy Dragon, the "baby version" of Ellergest's Holy Dragon unleashed powerful physical attacks loaded with spiritual energy and light magic. His claws, coated on light, devastated the goblins and even hobgoblins, cutting their bodies into pieces while burning them.

"Hmmm… Aren't you two being a bit too hasty?"

Meanwhile, the Gold Ore Turtle remained still, hitting the ground with his legs to generate small tremors followed by rock spikes growing from the ground to impale goblins. He was doing everything calmly, as if he had been reading through the goblins' moves. Although it was mostly because it was lazy and disliked moving.

"You three are doing fantastic! Keep up like that, we are almost done!" Elizabeth cheered up her Spirits.

At the same time, while Eleanora, Hendrick, and Saphira opened the way, I quickly made my way to the boss of the second floor, the Hobgoblin Warrior. The moment I confronted him, the muscular Hobgoblin began to exude a red-colored aura. This wasn't a demonic aura like the Imps can unleash, but something related to a Skill.

Monsters, much like people, were able to develop Skills and Magic. The higher their ranks were, the stronger their Skills would become and the more likely it would be for them to also be well versed in magic. This hobgoblin warrior's aura was from a Skill I had studied, [Berserk Aura].

In the Academy there's a library filled with books about skills monsters can have, and even their special, unique magic spells. Amongst them the most common Skill Ogre-type Monsters have is Berserk Aura, which often Bosses possess, enchanting all their stats upon activation in exchange for their sanity.

"GROOOAAAARRGH!"

The Hobgoblin Warrior rushed forward, attacking me with his enormous, rusted blade, which it had probably stolen from fallen adventurers that have come to this dungeon long ago.

CLAAASH!

The force of the impact was noticeable, the Skill it unleashed was also quite strong, a commendable and powerful foe, to say the least.

However…

SLASH!

I swung my spear horizontally, slicing through the Hobgoblin Warrior's leather armor and leaving a horrendous wound over his chest. The monster roared furiously at my provocation, as it unleashed a series of attacks with fury and no finesse or mastery at all.

"GRAAAAH!"

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Each blow became stronger than the other, but I easily parried them using Gluttony. The wound in the Hobgoblin's chest quickly began to weaken him. I was mostly trying to analyze the duration of the skill, but it seemed to last a few seconds, a minute at most.

"GRAAAAGGGH!"

The Hobgoblin, however, had quite the tenacity, roaring furiously at me and then trying to kick me.

CLAAASH!

However, when he kicked me his leg snapped. My body was already way stronger than him, by merely channeling some Ki into my Physique, I was able to utilize the Physique Technique [Iron Body] to enchant my durability even further.

CRACK!

"Gryyaaaaaagh!"

The Hobgoblin Warrior fell to the ground pathetically, as I manipulated my own shadows, which opened countless red eyes and jaws, beginning to devour him whole.

"Gryyyyyeehhh…!"

CRUNCH!

Once he was completely consumed, his agonizing screams finally ended. I felt slightly bad I was unable to see more of his abilities, but the idiot had to snap his leg by kicking me… Well, whatever.

I spread out the rest of my shadows, as they began attacking and devouring the rest of the Goblins and Lesser Hobgoblins watching the scene, their bodies were torn apart nicely until none were left behind.

The battle ended quicker than we expected, once I was done with that task, the entire floor was emptied of life other than ourselves. The first floor was cleared in ten minutes, the second floor at twenty. I guess the more monsters the longer it took.

Ding!

[You And Your Party have slain [Goblin Scout (F Rank)] x34!]

[You And Your Party have slain [Goblin Fighter (F+ Rank)] x30!]

[You And Your Party have slain [Hobgoblin (E- Rank)] x22!]

[You And Your Party have slain [Hobgoblin Warrior (E+ Rank)] x1!]

[EXP has been multiplied thanks to [Hard Worker]!]

[You earned 1088000 EXP!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Level Up!]

[Your Level has increased from Level 16 to Level 19!]

[All your Stats have increased.]

[You gained Stat Points and Skill Points.]

Nothing special this time either. I've heard Boss Monsters occasionally drop Treasure Chests that come with Gold Coins, Rare Materials, and even equipment. However, Floor Bosses have a lower chance for it compared to the Dungeon Boss at the latest Floor, which has a 100% chance to drop a Treasure Chest.

"[Dismantle], [Store]"

FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!

Ding!

[You've stored [Goblin's Skin] x55, [Goblin's Eyes] x100, [Goblin's Meat and Bones] x120, [Goblin's Internal Organs] x140, [Goblin's Mana Conducting Heart] x65, [Hobgoblin Warrior's Boiling Blood] x10, [Bloodlust Eyes] x2, [Spirit Orb (E)] x64, [Spirit Orb (F)] x23 inside of your [Inventory]!]

Got almost the same quantity of materials this time, but the Hobgoblin Warrior dropped two special materials after dismantling his body. It seems his blood contains a lot of magic power, and the eyes as well. They shall become good materials, Hendrick seemed pleased.
