Chaos, pain, fear... all the negative things in the world seemed to be contained in that soaring red light, but fortunately it only lasted for a few dozen seconds before slowly dissipating.

Then, a tall, slender figure appeared in the very center of the magic circle. He was very tall, probably around 1.9 meters.

He wore a black combat suit, with crimson armor covering his shoulders and arms, and a long cloak draped over his back. Even more remarkable were his bright red hairs that reached below his waist.

"tread"

"tread"

"tread"

With the crisp sound of armored boots, the person stepped out of the magic circle. An immense sense of oppression surged in front of Semiramis, and she raised her right hand without hesitation. Dozens of magic circles appeared out of thin air and were aimed at the tall figure.

However, the other party completely ignored her and instead looked at Amakusa Shiro, who had just regained consciousness in her arms.

"My name is Oda Nobunaga, often referred to as the Sixth Demon King! In this Holy Grail War, I descend upon the world as the Red Avenger, and I ask you—"

"Are you my Master?"

Chapter 250: Forbidden Power - The True Knight (Please Subscribe)

"You bastard, you bastard! You actually forced me to use such forbidden power!"

Vlad III, who had been swept dozens of meters away by the water barrier, slowly stood up. His eyes were bloodshot, as if boundless rage was about to erupt, and his voice became hoarse.

As Shen Qiu said, there is no historical fact or legend that he has ever possessed the inherent skill "Combat Continuation A+", so from any perspective, it is impossible for him to have such power.

However, some ill-intentioned authors and novelists in later generations, driven by a thirst for sensationalism, after reading about the incredibly bloody historical events he had committed, artistically embellished or even defiled them, shaping him into the prototype of the vampire—Dracula!

Therefore, he was naturally endowed with various powerful inherent skills unique to vampires, even the "317" Noble Phantasm. These inherent skills are not only powerful but also very troublesome. It is precisely because he possesses such inherent skills that he is able to become a top-tier Sevent in this Holy Grail War.

However, this was not a good thing for Vlad III; in fact, it could be considered an insult.

His life was full of hardships. As a child, he was sent to the Ottoman Empire as a hostage. Life as a hostage was not only difficult but also extremely humiliating. Later, his father and brother were assassinated one after another, which allowed him to return to Romania, which was already in fragmentation.

As a puppet state of the Ottoman Empire, Romania had to pay a large amount of taxes and tribute to the Ottomans every year. As a result, the people were extremely poor and miserable. There were corpses everywhere, bones were exposed in the fields, and not a rooster crowed for miles. The situation was so tragic that it was heartbreaking.

The Romanian royal family, who had taken the blame for the Ottoman Empire, naturally became the object of hatred among the people. The Ottoman Empire treated the Romanian royal family like obedient dogs, summoning them at will and dismissing them at will. The position of Grand Prince of Wallachia was one that pleased neither side.

After returning to Romania, Vlad Tsepes worked diligently and not only unified Romania in just a few years, but also nailed the Ottoman envoys who came to demand tribute to wooden stakes as a declaration of resistance against the Ottoman Empire.

Although he experienced three periods of being deposed and three periods of regaining the throne, he always maintained his belief in fighting the Ottoman Empire to the death and his army won a series of victories against it.

Even though he was ultimately assassinated, he had no regrets, because he believed that he had done his best for the people of Romania, and therefore had no regrets.

He would admit to being cruel and inhumane, and he would admit to being cold-blooded and heartless! But what he never expected was that later authors, in order to write best-selling books, would smear him as the prototype of a vampire, and the hero who wholeheartedly protected the country would inexplicably and miraculously become a bloodthirsty and crazy demon.

He can't admit it!

That's why he responded to the Holy Grail's request. He wanted to use the power of the Holy Grail to clear his name. When he was born, he realized that the Noble Phantasms and inherent skills he possessed did not belong to him, but he ordered Darnic not to use them under any circumstances.

But now, because of Shen Qiu, he had no choice but to use it!

"If I were still alive, there would still be a chance to cleanse myself of the filth through the power of the Holy Grail. But if I were to die so easily, there would be no chance at all."

As the moonsilver pierced his heart, Vlad III consoled himself with these words.

“Red Rider, you have thoroughly enraged me, forcing me to use that forbidden power. So—”

"Prepare to face my wrath!"

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battlefield, a fierce battle was also raging.

"Alas! You must be Saber? Speaking of which, I also have the Saber class. I'm sure you've heard of me: Astolfo, one of Charlemagne's Twelve Warriors. What do you think?"

Astolfo, holding his lance, looked at Saber, who was wearing a horned helmet, and proudly patted his flat chest. He had originally come to the aid of the Impaler, but was stopped by Mordred halfway there.

"You think you deserve the title of knight? That's hilarious."

Mordred looked at Astolfo, who was dressed in pink, and mocked him mercilessly. She had seen what a true knight was back at the Round Table.

Gawain, the Knight of the Sun, was known for his integrity, humility, and loyalty.

Lancelot, the Knight of the Lake, is a chivalrous and righteous man who hates evil.

Bedivere, the Silver-Armed Knight, remained steadfast in his principles and utterly loyal.

...

And her father, Artoria Pendragon, the perfect knight king among knights.

Any one of these people is a prominent figure in history. Although she later broke with the Round Table and even parted ways with them, Mordred always recognized their character and it did not change in the slightest.

(Except for Lancelot, of course.)

"A mere little girl dares to call herself a knight? That's laughable! If you swear to the Holy Grail that you will never call yourself a knight again, I might spare your life."

Mordred's icy voice came from beneath the horned mask. At the same time, she even changed her sword-wielding posture from two-handed to one-handed, a stance only used when she disdains her opponent.

"Hey, you guy."

"Are you saying I'm not qualified to be a knight?"

I don't know when it started, but the mischievous expression on Astolfo's face had disappeared, replaced by a calm look, and his words were no longer filled with joy or happiness.

"Isn't this obvious?"

The oblivious Mordred, of course, didn't notice this change and continued his taunts at Astolfo.

"How could... how could they say I'm not qualified to be a knight... such a thing, such a thing!" As if due to anger, Afu's right hand, which was holding the silver lance, began to tremble.

"I'll make you take it back!"

Astolfo mobilized his magic to its limit in an instant, and his B-rank agility was fully displayed. The pink-clad young knight was as fast as an arrow released from a bow!

"If you can do that, then give it a try!"

Crimson lightning suddenly erupted from Mordred's body, and the two quickly engaged in combat!

Chapter 251: Susanoo vs. the Legacy of Blood (Please Subscribe)

Shen Qiu stared at the piercing man with bloodshot eyes ahead without saying a word, but silently activated his Sharingan to observe him.

"The muscles in his arms had visibly swelled several sizes, as had his legs, and his ears had become noticeably more pointed, but his skin hadn't darkened and remained a pale complexion."

"Is it because the power of bloodline inheritance was deliberately suppressed...?"

Noble Phantasm: Legend of Dracula (A+)

He transforms himself into Count Dracula, the fictional progenitor of vampires in history. However, when Vlad III uses this Noble Phantasm, his Noble Phantasm and inherent skills as a monarch and piercing lord will be completely sealed.

In other words, he will be unable to use his signature skills, "Guardian Ghost General," and the powerful Noble Phantasm, "King of Execution."

However, in return, one will gain special abilities such as greatly enhanced physical abilities, the ability to transform into animals or mist, healing abilities, and the Enchanting Eye, as well as the weaknesses of sunlight and the Holy Seal, making it a complete double-edged sword.

"Get ready for the sanctions, Rider."

Because of the influence of the bloodline, Vlad III's voice sounded dark and hoarse, and the black spear had somehow ended up in his hand.

Then, the next second——

Vlad III is no longer there!

"So fast!"

The instant Vlad III left his spot, Shen Qiu reacted and raised the Moon Silver. Although ordinary people couldn't see it, he still saw what was going on thanks to the dynamic vision of the Eternal Kaleidoscope!

In less than a second, Vlad III had come to his side from dozens of meters away and was now about to plunge the black spear into his heart!

"Hatake Sword Technique, Sixth Form: Storm!"

Shen Qiu was horrified as he stared at the deadly spear thrusting towards him. Although he knew that the treasure [Bloodline Inheritance] possessed excessively powerful attributes, he had not expected it to provide such a huge boost.

However, given the current situation, he had no time to think about anything else. The threat of Vlad III was already imminent. Despite the haste, he still unleashed the strongest attack of the Hatake sword technique!

A crescent-shaped blade of energy suddenly burst forth from the Moon Silver sword. Given Vlad III's proximity, there was absolutely no way he could dodge this attack!

"Aha!"

Shen Qiu used all his strength to finally swing Moon Silver before Vlad III's spear could pierce him. The terrifying blade aura, filled with wind magic and more than ten meters long, cut the vampire in front of him in half!

"Success!"

Looking at Vlad III, whose body had been cut in two by Lan, Shen Qiu's expression changed before he could even feel happy.

In a very short time, Vlad III's body, which had just been torn in two on the battlefield, was immediately reconnected and restored to its original state. At the same time, the spear in his hand did not stop moving at all!

Although he did not completely transform himself into a vampire, the inherent abilities he possessed as a vampire were simply too powerful; his healing power was utterly unreasonable.

Even if his spiritual core is pierced and shattered now, he will be fine, because he will be restored to normal in the next second!

"Prepare to die, Rider!!!"

Vlad III's face was contorted in agony; using this vampire power was the ultimate humiliation for him! But in order to kill this Japanese boy who had repeatedly put him in dire straits, he had no choice but to do so!

"As long as I can kill him, as long as I can kill him, it's all worth it!"

Just as the spear tip was inches from Shen Qiu's chest, a surge of deep purple magic blocked the black spear, preventing it from advancing any further no matter how much he tried to activate it...

"This is...."
