Volume 5 Vampire Tea Party Part 11

「Dear sister! It is over! The battle is over, so please, please calm your anger!!!」

 

(. . ..  ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !)

 

A nostalgic and familiar voice reached her ears. Or rather, that voice has left the mouth of the host through whose eyes Leticia was watching the recollection. Her beautiful golden hair became violently unraveled due to the non-stop onslaught of the gusts of scorching-hot air, and her dress has been all but torn to shreds. The glove she was wearing on her right hand had the emblem of the royal family engraved upon it.

 

Mounting her own Dragon, she was desperately trying t avoid the attacks of the angry Giant Dragon who has seemingly gone berserk, all the while screaming at it with a voice filled with sadness:

 

「Dear sister! Do you not remember who I am?! Dear sister!!!!!!!」

 

The palm of the princess who was used to holding little else then butterflies, flowers and cups of tea in it was now clinging onto the reins of her Dragon so hard that it was digging into her skin. She continued to try to appeal to the Giant Dragon while being thrown around by her panicked mount, but no matter how hard she screamed, it was not enough to reach Leticia, who has completely lost herself in her anger.

 

A glittering head of golden hair that shined as bright as the rays of sunlight during sunrise. Clothes with the crest of the Vampire royal family engraved onto them. There is no mistaking it. There is no way in hell that she would ever forget the person who had such hair and wore such clothes. Not in a million years.

 

Her one and only younger sister whom she once loved and cherished so much.

 

(Impossible! ! ! !?. . . . .  How. . . .  ! ! ! ! ! ? ? ?)

 

Yes, that is right. This is the record of the downfall of the Vampire clan shown through the eyes of Lamia Draculea and depicting how she experienced it.

The roar of the Giant Dragon shook the aerial citadel down to its very foundation, and the one responsible for doing it, as well as for turning the entire castle town into nothing but the ocean of raging flames and scattering the sea of clouds simply by flying next to them is exactly the same kind of Dragon that is described in various myths and legends across all of the known mythologies.

 

Twenty days have now passed since their ruler has activated her malicious「Host Master」Authority, and across the span of those twenty days, all of the Vampire families that participated in the rebellion against The Vampire Queen have been slaughtered and wiped out. Although all of the Vampires were revered as 「The Knights of Little Garden」, facing one of the strongest species proved to be too much for them to handle without the presence of the royal family and the main force of their Communities, because the lack of those two things can be likened to the army losing all of its generals and commanding officers, meaning that all of its fighting strength and power were effectively gone.

 

As a result, the rebels were being slaughtered by the Giant Dragon one after another as it burned them with its fire, crushed them with its claws and fangs and turned them to dust with the lightning strikes that it kept on summoning from the sky. Those of the Vampires who realize that they have no chances of winning against tha beast tried to save themselves by attempting to flee the battlefield, but Leticia made sure that the 「Host Master」Authority that she activated would account for that eventuality as well, which is why all that the surviving Vampires could do was to break down and cower in fear and terror as they read the contents of the black Geass Rolls that continued to rain down upon them from the heavens above with tears in their eyes and their hands shaking from madness.

『 . . . 』 seal』

 

Lamia Draculea, the only surviving member of the royal family rereads the contents of the black Geass Roll over and over again, and each time she did so, her face and lips were turning deeper shades of blue until they went completely pale, making her look as if she was a living corpse.

 

「H-How is that possible. . . .  my dear sister is the one who summoned that Giant Dragon!!?」

 

Her voice was shaking as she herself struggled to keep herself from falling off of her own Dragon, and she could not stop herself from thinking such thoughts as: what in the world has happened here while I was away? Holding the reins with one hand and preparing a whip in her other hand, Lamia looked over the castle town from the sky to better assess the scale of the damage, and the more she saw, the more mortified she was becoming.

 

The streets and buildings have been literally turned into a river of blood and corpses. Most of them had wounds on their bodies that suggested that they have been impaled through the hearts by enormous stakes, and if that did not kill them outright then they most likely died due to extreme blood loss or choking down on their own guts, blood and excrements. That was probably one of the penalties that Leticia enforced in this slaughter of a Gift Game of hers. And that was not the end of it. Among all those corpses flowing down the freshly-formed red river, some of the corpses looked like they were burned down with fire, while others looked like they have been struck by lightning. But aside from that. . . .

 

(Some of these burn marks. . . . ..  they look almost like. . . .  no. . . . no, it cannot be!)
