Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

The newcomers stopped flying to float a few meters away from Daimon and the others, Adam glared at Jasmine with hatred burning in his eyes, but then he ignored her and gazed at Daimon.

“Last chance, handle that bitch over as well as the trident she stole, then get the hell out of my sight and you’ll live, otherwise…”.

Adam hadn’t finished speaking, when Daimon appeared near him, but to his surprise he didn’t aim at him, instead of that he pointed the cross bow at the blue haired woman, whose eyes glowed in a dark light, a dark metal whip appeared on her hand, as she waved it towards the cross bow.

“Booom!”, the moment the whip clashed with the white flames that were appearing in front of the cross bow, the flames exploded and the shockwave created by the whip was also dispelled, creating a loud explosion that flew Adam away.

“The adults are talking here, go play hero somewhere else”, said Daimon as he became a white flash that shot towards the blue haired woman.

Adam’s expression was worth seeing right now, his face was twisted, after being tricked, treated as a lackey by an npc, and now a nobody who was lucky enough to obtain a magic weapon from a system user, was looking down on him, he was furious, the white sword which he used to attack Archbald before, appeared on his hands, but as he was about to swing it towards Daimon, he felt danger approaching him from below.

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm “Do you think I’m going to fall for that again you bitch!”, he shouted as he moved aside.

He still remembered the sensation of having his dick pierced by the trident, so he evaded in a hurry, which was the right thing to do, because that same trident was about to land in his balls.

“Wait for your turn you… aghh!”, he turned around to curse at Jasmine, but was welcomed by the sight of both Sarah and Reyne’s fists landing on his face, making him spin on the air and then a burning pain assaulted his face, as poison and flames burned his skin.

The trident then returned by itself to Sarah’s hands, Reyne was floating next to her on top of a red platform made out of blood, while Jasmine was standing behind them, similarly on top of a red blood platform, preparing her spells.

“Now, you shouldn’t look away, there are three beauties who have a score to settle with you, it will be your biggest and last honor”, said the crazy girl as her poisonous battle aura covered the trident.

There was something different about Reyne too, though Adam couldn’t see it, she was now using a bracelet on her right wrist, Jasmine had one in each of her wrists, because the previous one wasn’t working anymore, due to all the scratches on it, but she kept it as a protective charm.

White halos appeared in her pretty eyes, that now had a sharp and angered light flashing on them, her usual gentle and bright expression was nowhere to be seen.

The three of them nodded at each other, and then Sarah and Reyne charged towards Adam, while Jasmine prepared her spells in the order they previously discussed.

Adam saw red, his light battle aura exploded around his body, and the next second his body decomposed in particles of white light, that then solidified in front of Jasmine, he had a cruel smile as he swinged his sword towards her.

“You have caused me so much fucking trouble, I’ll cut your limbs and then chain you to become a toy, don’t worry I’ll heal you every time I finish playing with you”, his cocky smile froze on his face, when he saw a white light wall appear in front of Jasmine, followed by a silver light shield floating above her.

Growth comes thanks to danger, not too long ago she managed to use her Silver Spear as an area type of spell, which by itself took Aurora by surprise, but as amazing as it is, it’s something that as a member of the royal family of the Light Palace sect, she was supposed to learn to do, though she surely managed to do it way earlier than she should have, as a proof of her outstanding talent that even surpassed Aurora’s.

And during these days where she was kept prisoner, it’s not like she lazed around, besides wearing out the ground of the cage, she had to find something to do while the black mantled woman, was in the same room as her, or when she was watching over her.

So, she took the time to think what she was lacking as of current, so far, she has learned the spells that are engraved in her lineage, out of which she can only use, Silver Spear, Silver Citadel, Silver Fortress and lastly her secret card which is Light Fortress, the ability she used to survive when Adam abandoned her.

Light Fortress is actually the automatic defensive spell that all the members of the royal lineage from the Light Palace sect, learn, which later becomes the base for their domain, which explains the form that Aurora’s domain has and its incredibly high defensive properties.

And there is a history behind the spell Light Fortress, being the only spell among the ones used by the lineage of the Light Palace, that uses the word “light” instead of “silver”, that spell was a modified version of Silver Fortress, that completely changed the effect of the spell, the original work of the ancestor of the Light Palace.

From that point onwards, no one has ever been able to modify the spells, they just learned them and trained to become more proficient in them, of course the domain of each person is different, but that’s not a spell, but a characteristic earned by those who reached the Archmage rank, additionally they are always mages.

Anyway, Jasmine judged that her offensive was really lacking, unfortunately her light element wasn’t the offensive type, so even if she used an attack type spell, the result would be underwhelming, so she changed her perspective.

“Booom!”, Adam’s sword impacted the white light wall, but the image of Jasmine’s defense being easily cut by his sword, didn’t happen, which made Adam have a sudden bad premonition, but it was too late for him to change his target.

Under Adam’s surprised eyes, spikes emerged from the white light wall, which then exploded in countless shard of light, now imagine Adam’s surprise when he saw a familiar attack now coming his way, the white ray he used earlier to attack Archbald, was now directed at him!

‘It’s still incomplete, but enjoy it to the fullest’, thought Jasmine as she casted her spell.

“Retribution Fortress”, with Jasmine’s words, the white ray impacted Adam, who couldn’t believe his eyes, it was weaker but it was no doubt his own attack, which was now being thrown at his face.

He changed his stance to deflect the energy of his own sword, the attack was shot practically at point blank, so even if Adam managed to block it, he was pushed backwards, at the same time, Jasmine received a little recoil, as the thin trace of blood coming out of her pretty lips suggested, that being said she was smiling, which made Adam have a bad premonition.

And for a change he was right for the first time in a while, unfortunately the prize was, Sara and Reyne appearing behind of him, with their respective weapons aimed at him.

“Shit…aghhhh!”, by the time Adam realized his movements were predicted and he was baited, a trident covered in a black-purple light pierced his abdomen from behind, followed by a knight’s lance piercing his left shoulder, destroying the bone and burning the nearby flesh.

“Aghhh!”, Adam felt a current of pain running through his body, from his abdomen, the trident itself was enough to wound him, bypassing his safety measures, except the life-saving ones, but he did not expect Reyne’s lance to hurt so much, having his body exposed to their battle auras, he screamed and then released a huge amount of his own battle aura, which was parried by those two using their own battle auras.

Something interesting about both Sarah and Reyne, is the fact that despite having extreme negative affinities, they weren’t weakened by light, so while Adam managed to get away but letting their weapons rip some of his flesh, he couldn’t harm them with his Corrosive Light.

Adam gritted his teeth, a bottle with a blue liquid appeared in his hand, and he drank the contents in a single go, making his wounds release steam as he started healing on the spot.

Unfortunately for him, those three weren’t going to let him just do as he pleased, so Adam was forced to interrupt the healing process, to prevent the trident from piercing his chest, while he dodged Reyne’s spear, he couldn’t use the attack from the white sword, because Jasmine was ready to cast her self-modified spell at any time.

Just for this battle, Jasmine created that spell, it was a modification that combined Silver Fortress and White Fortress, but the nature of the spell overall was changed, the defense of the spell was amplified, but the duration was shortened, in exchange, 30% of the power of the enemy’s attack, would be redirected at the caster.

For the first time since the days of the ancestor of the Light Palace, someone from her lineage broke out of the state of stagnation, that being in a comfortable zone brought them.

After all, modifying a spell wasn’t as simple as Daimon makes it look like, in his case the system makes it so his skills and spells adapt to fit his desires as they level up, which has its own hardships, like meeting the unknown requirements which he has to discover on his own, but he doesn’t need to trigger the change.

In comparison, the girls that had modified their spells, like Aisha, the Risha sisters and recently Jasmine, have to trigger the change, but don’t have to blindly look for the requirements, needed for their success, it can be said that they struggle at different areas.

…

While Adam was being assaulted by the three girls, a couple of hundreds of meters away from them, there was a white flash clashing against a black one, from up-close one could see Daimon who was using the white cross bow to block all the attacks from the blue haired woman’s black whip.

‘How much of her power did that bitch put into that stupid cross bow!’, inwardly swore the blue haired woman as she dodged a line of white light shot from the cross bow, those white flames actually made her feel threatened.

“Booom!”, with one last clash, they both separated and took some distance from each other.

“Why are you fighting against me, whatever “she” has promised you, I can give you a better reward, you just need to stand aside”, said the woman, with a cunning light flashing on her eyes.

Daimon ignored her, and simply charged towards her.

“Humph”, the woman was clearly not taking things seriously, she only seemed way of the white cross bow, as she used her black metal whip to disturb the aim of the cross bow, making the white flame arrow miss her.

Seeing Daimon “fiercely” trying to shoot her down, as he stole some gazes at Adam’s battlefield, the blue haired woman inwardly smirked before saying.

“Ah, I get it, you seem to have a personal feud with my little champion, let me tell you what, if you hand over the trident, I’ll stay aside from your conflict, what do you say?”, she asked.

Daimon put on a contemplative expression, for the delight of the blue haired woman, Daimon then turned to see her before saying.

“What about the Blood King, without the trident, he can freely come for me and my companions”.

The woman remained silent for a moment, but ultimately, she snapped her fingers and a black barrier, surrounded both Daimon and her, in a matter of seconds, the barrier was merely defensive and isolated those inside of it, form the outside world.

“If you hand over the trident, everything can be discussed, since you have those two at your side, that would make the Blood King unnecessary for my plans, if you prove your worth, naturally I won’t treat you bad, so what do you say?”, said the woman, her voice carried a certain magnetic property that made it hard for others not to properly listen to her commands.

And Daimon was directly hit from that, as a proof of it, he nodded in response before saying.

“Deal, let’s make a contract then, no offense but I can’t easily trust you”, Daimon approached the blue haired woman, who was smiling from ear to ear after seeing him keep the white cross bow in his storage ring, to approach her.

As soon as Daimon was around two meters away from the blue haired woman, he was stopped in cold by a wisp of light that appeared out of nowhere.

The blue haired woman clicked her tongue as she swinged her whip towards it, but the white cross bow escaped from Daimon’s storage ring, and blocked the attack, to then release a flash of light that made the blue haired woman step back as if to avoid the plague.

Once the bright light was gone, what replaced was a simple agglomeration of gray light that floated in between Daimon and the blue haired woman.

“Don’t trust her, she is a vicious traitor”, a girl’s voice came from the gray wisp of light, the white cross bow kept floating around it, as it aimed at the blue haired woman.

But to her surprise, the cross bow flew back to Daimon’s hand, making the blue haired woman laugh.

“Well, this helps me the trouble to find the last remaining influence you had in this planet, it seems like unlike you, the one you choose has more common sense… aghhh!”.

As the blue haired woman was mocking the gray wisp of light, a white flame arrow landed on her chest, after causing her a short but intense burning pain, the blue haired woman released her dark mana to put it out.

“You, how dares a lowly being attack me!!!”, she shouted, amidst her moment of rage, her “body” slowly burned, revealing a completely different figure, it was as if she was wearing a veil, which was burned by Daimon Demon’s Light.

‘Wow, if Calvin was here, I’m pretty sure he would have been crying out of disappointment’, thought Daimon as he observed the true nature of the blue haired woman.

The best way to describe her would be horrendous, the lower part of her body had the form of a fish’s tail, while the upper part was that of a woman, so far you might imagine the legendary appearance of a mermaid, but people often forget that among the countless tales about mermaids, there are some that specifically declare that they eat human meat, which they personally hunt for, using their bewitching voices.

Well, this “mermaid” embodied what one would imagine from that particular myth, having long dark greasy hair, a bony and emaciated figure with gray lifeless skin, that ruined the fact that it was topless, unproportionally long arms that ended in claws, and last but not least, spiked teeth that went along with the human eating part of the myth, certainly not what those who fantasized about mermaids would want to see.

That being said, Daimon wasn’t the least surprised about it, to begin with, not even a single word of what the “beautiful” blue haired woman said, was true, unfortunately for her, trying to hide one’s ill intent was useless in front of Daimon, it’s not like he can’t be tricked, Erin has done it quite a few times, but the key point was not having even a single spec of malice towards him or those around him, and the blue haired woman didn’t meet that requirement.

As to why he went along with her play, knowing that she hadn’t lowered her guard enough for him to land a proper attack on her, that’s because he wanted to force out, the last participant of this war, onto the stage.

Back when they arrived, Rita felt “something” trying to localize them, unfortunately neither Rita not that being were able to pinpoint the other’s location, and from that point onwards that situation didn’t repeat.

But back when the white cross bow prevented the blue haired woman from forcefully separating Daimon and the girls, inside of the labyrinth, Rita noticed a certain familiarity, which she later informed to Daimon.

Since it was obvious that the one who was lending him a hand through the white cross bow, opposed the blue haired woman, he just needed to create a situation, that forced said person to interfere, and that’s how we reach this point.

Daimon had already confirmed that both the Ghouls including the Blood King and the light idiot, were just pawns for the blue haired woman, so she was the true dangerous enemy, while the others were just being manipulated by her.

“You know, that trick of fabricating an illusionary outer appearance is starting to get old”, said Daimon, now that her cover was burned by Demon Light, the creature gave off a familiar feeling, which was similar to that of a Nethereal.

But the curious thing is that she isn’t one, for the simple reason that the blue haired woman, was an… administrator, in other words that deformed mermaid used to be the administrator of a system, but was now somehow running rampant on her own.

‘It’s ready!’, Rita’s enthusiastic voice signaled the start of the next of Daimon’s plan, he pointed the white cross bow upwards, and all the white flames that were still consuming the red pillars, bypassed the barrier created by the now abomination-like mermaid and gathered above Daimon.

The monstrous mermaid, immediately dispelled the barrier and took distance from Daimon, knowing that with that amount of those horrifying white flames, she could get hurt.

Naturally Daimon his Demon Light better than anyone, and while this amount of Demon Light looked imposing, in exchange for using other things as fuel, the original properties of Demon Light, thinned quite a bit, after all it wasn’t the original source which was produced personally by Daimon, but more of an extension of it, still it was enough for what he needed it.

‘Now!’, listening to Daimon’s order, Rita snapped her fingers inside Daimon’s shadow, and a small sized black portal appeared at his right, from which the trident of the storm, came out.

Daimon could feel the “reward me”, intense gaze from the crazy girl, even from afar, but ignored her and instead firmly grabbed the trident, all the white flames gathered around the trident, which Daimon then threw upwards, making he giant sphere of white flames follow.

“That direction, don’t tell me!”, the monstrous mermaid, suddenly realized she was played, but as she was about to user her domain to intercept the attack, the giant sphere of flames disappeared into thin air, through a wide black portal that suddenly appeared on the sky.

“Shooting Star Spear”, mumbled Daimon, the next scene drew the attention of all the people on the area, regardless of the battlefield in which they were participating.

For the simple reason that the red moon above in the sky, was suddenly impacted by a white shooting star, naturally the sound and shockwave didn’t reach all the way from that distance to Kerrol.

But the flash resulting from the impact, illuminated the sky, turning the night into day for a couple of seconds, resulting in a sepulchral silence falling on Kerrol as a whole, the battlefield, the cities, the towns and even those nomads that lived in the wastelands, everyone raised their heads, human, beast or Ghoul.

The monstrous siren’s eyes got bloodshot, blinded by rage she actually charged towards Daimon, but was blocked by a pillar of silver light that descended from the sky, the next second.

“Boooom!”, this time there was an explosion as the pillar of light impacted the ground, it’s worth mentioning that a few Ghouls that were bathed by the pillar of light were immediately vaporized, but the humans were just sent flying away with light injuries.

Slowly but surely the pillar of light contracted and then blinked until it disappeared, Daimon looked at his right and a sole word came to his mind.

‘Paladin’.
