Chapter 68: The Prisoner

One of Chastain's knights dashed towards Chloe to secure her body. At that time Chloe's tiny body only occasionally shook and stiffened. But it must be very painful even though the girl refused to shed tears. She just had a wound on her back that hadn't fully healed after the duel against Valerie. The Shadows attacked her in the same place.

The Shadows didn't seem to care about Chloe. He was immediately busy looking around. He's looking for Brianna. The duke's daughter was now hiding in one of the residents' houses while trembling.

"Shoot!"

The village women still hadn't given up. They have a lot of traps that should be quite effective against ordinary vampires. But he was an intelligent Shadows monster. Different from ordinary Shadows. He was quite good at dodging the same attack a second time.

The Shadows quickly removed a door from a resident's house and turned it into a shield. He parried the silver-tipped arrow that was fired at him while chuckling. He was quite agile despite his large body.

Valerie was still hiding in one of the residents' houses. Even though she had crossed eyes with the Shadows, he didn't seem too interested in pursuing Valerie.

"Open!" The voice of the man confined underground still sounded angry.

"Shut up sir! Do you want to die?" Valerie whispered furiously.

"All of you are overconfident. C-type Shadows like them can't be just one! You won't be able to fight them with your petty weapons!" The man grumbled. His voice was a little unclear but Valerie could still understand it.

"Shadows type C? That's their species name?" Valerie confirmed.

"Let go of me, then I'll explain about them. I'm not in this village to hunt! I'm here on a military mission!" The man said impatiently.

Valerie used her sword, she pry the door of the basement which was a little dusty. There she saw a knight in Avalon's uniform and blonde hair tied with silver chains. He looked like a mess.

"S—Sir Caesar Petrovsky?" Valerie was nervous for a moment. How could a formidable cursed weapon user like himself be caught by humans?

"Lady Valerie?" He looked surprised when he saw her. The girl wore no knight attribute other than carrying Apollon's sword in her hand. The girl hesitated for a moment, considering whether she was ready to reveal herself as a cursed weapon user?

"How did they catch you?"

"I let my guard down and I don't think this is the right time to chat, my Lady..let me go, I'll catch those Shadows," said Caesar firmly.

Valerie nodded and using Apollon, she broke the silver chains that bound his legs.

"I didn't think, I've always known that Dubois has that sword..but I didn't expect it to be you, my lady," Caesar mumbled, his face like he had just been betrayed. Even though he knew Valerie wasn't lying to him. Caesar himself never considered that lady dubois was a cursed weapon user.

Caesar was finally able to reach Vulcan's sword which was quite far from him. Then he let go of the remaining chains that were still attached to his ankles. There were reddish burn marks on some parts of his skin but that will soon recover. Caesar drew his sword and jumped out of the cramped dungeon.

"Are you alone? Where are the other Avalons knights?"

"They're on a mission of their own to go after Type C Shadows. That's the name we give them."

"So, since the incident in Lapella, you're still hunting those Shadows?" Valerie ran after Caesar who immediately jumped out of the house.

"Are you tough enough, lady Valerie?" Caesar asked.

"Me? I guess I can hold Shadows like them,"

"I doubt that you have awakened the true power of your cursed sword, need direction?"

"What?"

"You need a guide to use the sword, my lady," said Caesar, now his tone was wary of Valerie. Not as sweet and elegant as usual, Caesar seemed unaccustomed to knowing that Valerie was the one who retrieved the cursed sword from Rutherford's secret lab.

Caesar ran really fast at the big Shadows and jumped at him. He swung his Vulcan sword which was now glowing red as if on fire. Then he cut off his right arm. The Shadows roared painfully. Caesar's weapons could burn his wounds so quickly that he could no longer grow his arms. Caesar did it with both feet and left only his head. Valerie trembled at the sadistic sight. He knew that they were vile Shadows. But what Caesar did was no less cruel. Caesar did so with an even expression.

Before finally he quickly took out a coil of silver plated rope from under his coat and tied the monster.

Caesar didn't kill him.

"Looks like you don't need my help," Valerie mumbled awkwardly.

"Your weapon hasn't been awakened either, but how do you kill General Gunther?" Caesar asked Valerie coldly. The girl felt her neck shiver. Caesar was an Avalon. He was a commander, meaning his strength was on par with Raphael's. What made him even more dangerous was that he was used to killing.

"You want revenge, sir?" Valerie asked after gulping.

"I don't know, I never thought that you had that weapon. Did you think I was stupid all this time? Pretending to be a graceful, elegant girl and acting innocently as if you don't know anything about the military world?" Caesar laughed sarcastically. Valerie held Apollon wary of him.

"Who freed that vampire??" The village head shouted pointing at Caesar.

"If it weren't for him! We probably wouldn't have survived!" Valerie said firmly.

"He's an Avalon!"

"But this time our enemies are the same and—"

"I don't need you to defend me, lady Valerie. I'll probably kill them after my business is done," Caesar said coldly to Valerie.

"No! As long as I'm here you can't do it!" Valerie looked back at him fiercely.

"You haven't even awakened your sword power yet! How can you stop me?" Caesar said disdainfully.

"Well, you're alone now. Raphael will be arriving at the village soon. You can't possibly fight all of us at once," Valerie folded her arms in a slightly defiant manner.

Caesar laughed.

"Impressive, I like strong women. Too bad I might now be reluctant to ask you out. So was Raphael the one who taught you to use that sword?" Caesar asked. He saw Shadows tongue sticking out and gave a cursing look. Then Caesar stabbed his tongue coldly.

"Yes, Raphael is my mentor,"

"He must not be telling you everything. It's not difficult to awaken the true power of your sword," Caesar spoke to her.

Valerie could notice that the villagers and the Chastain knights were now watching them warily. Caesar was wearing the knight uniform of Avalon and he had defeated the Shadows without any struggle.

Brianna now seems to be taking care of Chloe. Several villagers donated their blood to Chloe. Out of the corner of her eye, Valerie could see Margaret who was looking wary. Perhaps the girl was considering trapping Caesar one more time. But the Avalon knight couldn't possibly be stuck with the same trick a second time.

"Would you take my advice?" Caesar spoke.

"What advice?"

"There's a fairly easy way to awaken the power of that sword of yours. I'm telling you this as a friend. Besides, it's no fun fighting someone who isn't strong enough,"

"So you still intend to avenge General Gunther's death?" Valerie turned wary.

"Gunther, is one of my mentors. There's one thing about cursed weapons he once said that might be of use to you. Cursed weapons were given by demons, you know what demons like?" Caesar asked.

"What?" Valerie tilted her head.

Caesar laughed, enjoying the girl's reaction.

"You may not be suitable in the military world, you are too righteous. That's why I will tell you. A cursed weapon was given by the devil. They wanted the vampire knights of the past to get lost in evil and darkness. The demons wanted to corrupt their souls as badly as possible. So, There's an easy way to awaken your sword's power."

"Just tell me if you know," Valerie defiantly.

"You need to kill humans with that sword," said Caesar calmly. He enjoyed Valerie's expression which seemed shaken.

"Are you crazy? I won't do it!" Valerie confirmed.

"The cursed weapon acts with evil. If you perform actions that lead to it, it will be stronger," explained Caesar again.

Valerie pondered. Was her theory wrong? She thought that if she was in a situation of being pressed by death—like when she had faced Gunther—then Apollon's powers would awaken.

But she realized that at that time she was not doing anything noble. She was committing a fraud, which was to confront the seriously injured Gunther to take his life. Was that why Apollon showed his strength? Apollon likes her cunningness? Even if it's true, Valerie was still reluctant to intentionally kill humans.

"Kyaaaaah!" The frightened voices of women were heard again. What's up this time?

Then two giant Shadows entered the village. They looked furious to see Caesar stomping his heavy boots on Shadows' now disfigured body.. Then one of them jumped and hit the Avalon knight's body hard without Caesar having time to dodge.
