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

Chapter 816 Rising Popularity In The Academy

-----

Once the classes Dungeon Analysis classes were over, where Hector explained the structure of B Rank Dungeons, which were even more complex than C Rank Dungeons to help us understand its dangers and everything, we moved to our break lunch at the large cafeteria.

Merely walking around this area filled with students made us the spotlight of the place, hundreds of students glancing at us, pointing at us, and calling our names… It was really annoying.

"By the holy spirits, its Blake!"

"Ahhh~ He's so handsome, isn't he?"

"I can't believe I couldn't see it just because I thought he was just a commoner, but he's a hero…"

"He does hold the mature beauty and charming eyes of one, for sure!"

"Blake, please wait a bit!"

"Blake! Blake!"

"Ugh, here they come again…" I sighed.

Over five girls arrived right in front of me, asking me to sit at my side and enjoy a meal with me… As usual.

"Please can we sit with you?"

"It is just a meal, nothing else!"

"We would love to hear any stories you have to tell about your heroic deeds!"

"I heard you fought a Demon Overlord and won! How strong was he?!"

"I'm single by the way!"

"Listen girls, I-" As I was about to reject their offers, suddenly, Erika jumped over me and landed right in front of me.

"Get away! Blake's mine!" She said angrily. "I've told you all this time he has no interest in any other girls!"

"That's right, stop it, it is getting disgusting." Elizabeth agreed, walking to her side. "If you don't have any genuine intention to become his friend or our comrade, please go away."

"Ugh, you act like you own him!" 

"If he has two girlfriends can't he have a third at least?"

"Someone as strong as him can have multiple fiancées! Don't be so greedy!"

"Especially you, Elizabeth, unlike Erika you're not even a noble!" Said another girl with white hair and red, blue eyes, she exuded a cold and chilly aura. She was Serpentina Icestone from Class 3. "Why is a mere commoner like you coming to tell us what to do? You might have a Saint Talent, but so what? Saints are still below Nobles!"

"Ugh, shut up!" Erika said angrily, punching the beautiful girl several meters away.

"Eeek!" 

BAAM!!

She ended rolling over the cafeteria, as usual.

"Anyone else want to offend my friends?!" Erika said angrily, her eyes glowing with draconic light.

"Uwah!"

"She's a savage!"

"Ugh, why does she always gets physical?!"

The girls quickly ran away, scattering like cockroaches.

"That was unnecessary, Erika…" Elizabeth sighed.

"Well, not like it matters, Hasan never does anything about it." Erika giggled. "I felt like giving them a lesson!"

"Well done, but don't abuse your power against weaklings if possible, Erika." I smiled. "Next time this happens, I'll resolve it myself. I don't need protection, okay?"

"Fine…" Erika nodded, giving me a kiss. "I just get really angry! They don't even know you, and I remember they always badmouthed you before because you were a commoner, but now just because you did something, they all act as if they always liked you!"

"I know, they're called two-faced people, you meet them a lot between noble families and meetings." Elfriedden sighed. "I've also had my fair share of leeches like those."

"It's getting really obnoxious, but yeah." Erdrich sighed.

"At least they had stopped challenging me to fight for my place in the party… It felt so stupid." Eric sighed in relief.

"Right? Well, you always beat the crap out of them anyways Eric!" Alberta giggled.

"Yeah you're pretty strong, they're dumb to think they had a chance." Erika laughed as well. "Eric might have been a bit shy and cowardly back then but you're just as strong as us!"

"I-I wouldn't call myself just as strong as you, Erika…" Eric laughed a bit. "Also, did you said cowardly and shy…? Did you had to be so rough around the edges?"

"Hahaha, sorry, sorry…" Erika laughed carefreely. 

As we sat down to enjoy a meal, Rosen and Clarice appeared, quickly sitting nearby us.

"You seem so calm and composed after hearing what the next test is about! Is this going to be the same thing that happened with the C Rank Dungeon?!" Rosen cried. "Blake, please help!"

"This is for sure something impossible, we barely cleared the C Rank Dungeon!" Clarice said.

"It's not like I can do much for you." I shrugged. "You are competent and strong enough, you have to keep training your skills and Ki Manipulation… Maybe buy from me some elixirs, potions, bombs, and equipment too. I'll give you a discount. If you don't have enough power yourself, you can always make up for it with money. And you two are nobles, right? I doubt you lack money."

The two looked at one another, sighing.

"I-I guess we'll be buying a few bombs and equipment, yeah…" Rosen sighed. "A-Anything that could help us advance that hellish labyrinth even a single step further."

"Likewise… But can't we train again like we once did?" Clarice asked.

"You've already reached the limit of what I can squeeze out of you with intense training, the rest is all up to your skills, your wits, and how many levels you get or how much you can cultivate your spiritual energy and ki." I explained. "I've helped you become proper warriors after you were pathetic newbies. But I can't just carry you all the way to the top. That's up to you."

"W-What… but what about your friends?" Rosen asked.

"You're implying they're weak and I'm carrying them?" I laughed. "Don't be a fool, they're all strong on their own, we complement each other, we also have some weaknesses, but that's where we all are for one another. You lack team synergy with the rest of your teams, train that in the meantime. I never carried my friends to the top; we all walked and helped one another reach where we are. Keep that in mind, the strength of a party is made by the combination of each individual's strength."

"W-We understand…" Clarice sighed, still looking hopeless. "Anyway… sell me a hundred bombs, please."

"Are you just going to blow up the dungeon with bombs?!" Rosen asked.

"What else should I do?!" Clarice cried.
