Collapse, Traveling from the Moonlit Oath

The gaze swept over the buildings in front of them a few times. The great castle doors were tightly shut, making it impossible to enter directly. Other methods would have to be found.

Watching the bats flying in the air, the little bat seriously pondered for a moment. It was impossible to completely avoid these bats, but since they weren't paying attention to her, perhaps there was an opportunity...

So she mimicked the aura of these bats, transforming into over a dozen similar bats and blending into their group.

As expected, the girl's thoughts were not wrong. These bats did not suspect the newly joined bats.

While circling the castle, it wasn't long before the girl noticed a suitable window for infiltration. Seizing the opportunity, she rushed in like a phantom!

As soon as she entered the castle's interior, the girl immediately felt as if she had been drawn into a giant vortex. However, she focused her senses, confirmed that no attention had been drawn to her, and then continued to advance.

The interior of the castle was much larger than it appeared from the outside, filled with traces of history and the unique aura of vampires. Dim, antique chandeliers hung from the high ceilings, casting the corridors in a dim and mysterious light.

Chapter 20 Gasper

"Truly terrifying! They might possess the strength of an Upper Class, right?"

Miss Moonlit hid in the shadows, observing the central area of the castle. Many vampires were gathered there, seemingly discussing something.

Numerous vampire guards stood on the periphery, most of them possessing Lower or Middle Class strength. The reason for her certainty was that the girl had made a comparison with the Middle Class Lost Demon she had encountered before.

Compared to these guards, the few vampires in the central area felt even more dangerous, especially one among them... giving the current Miss Moonlit a sense of immense danger.

The girl guessed that this might be an existence of the highest class.

Although the girl was not yet certain about the exact strength levels of Upper Class, Highest Class, Quasi-Demon King, and Demon King Class, she estimated in her heart that it wouldn't be simple...

The opponent was at least Upper Class in strength, possibly even Highest Class.

In the strength classification of High School DxD, taking demons as an example, from lowest to highest, they are: Newborn, Lower Class, Middle Class, Upper Class, Highest Class, Quasi-Demon King, Demon King/God, Arch Demon King, Sovereign Class/Transcender, Broken Class/Quasi-Dragon God, Dragon God Class.

The most powerful is the Dragon God Class, also known as the Twin Dragon Gods.

And this is just the ranking within the DxD world. Beyond this, there are even more powerful existences, namely the world of High School DxD EX!

For instance, the EX Mechanical Evil God, which could kill the DxD world's most powerful existence, Great Red, with a single blow.

It should be known that the so-called DxD refers to Great Red, and such an existence was instantly killed. One can imagine the terror of the EX Evil God.

Above the Dragon God Class are: Arch Dragon God Class, Quasi-Evil God Class, Evil God Class.

Setting aside the EX battle power for now, in the DxD world, an "Upper Class" existence is already incredibly powerful, and Demon King Class existences are even rarer.

Ordinary Upper Class beings are manageable, but if it's a Highest Class existence, it would be quite troublesome for the current Miss Moonlit. It's best to avoid contact if possible.

After all, a certain Dragon King is also only Highest Class...

Even though they are both Highest Class, the gap in strength can be immense. Ranks are merely a reference and do not represent the final combat power.

Miss Moonlit chose to distance herself from this place. The target she was looking for was likely not here.

However, just as the girl was leaving, the vampire in the center suddenly looked towards the position where Miss Moonlit had just been, with a hint of confusion, as if sensing something.

But there was no further reaction...

Some more time passed, and Miss Moonlit stopped in a certain area of the castle. Looking at the area ahead, a smile appeared on her face. She had found it.

"How cruel! It's too brutal, even though..."

"I don't want to drink blood, it's so disgusting!"

"..."

A very cute and beautiful little vampire girl was huddled in a corner, her gaze fixed on her companions in front of her, a look of unbearable pain on her face.

They were all half-blood vampires, possessing human bloodlines within them.

Why were they doing this?

Half-blood vampires didn't need to consume blood to survive. And if they only needed to drink blood, they didn't need to be so ruthless, completely draining people into mummified corpses.

However, being naturally timid, she only dared to watch from the corner, not daring to approach, let alone stop them.

"Get lost, don't snatch mine!"

"Do you want to get beaten?"

At this moment, a large group of little vampires surrounded several humans, and they were snatching the blood food from each other.

These half-bloods were essentially under house arrest in this area. The vampires would occasionally throw some humans for them to feed on. Although half-blood vampires could survive by eating human food without drinking blood, consuming human blood was not only more delicious but also increased their magic power.

Naturally, they wouldn't miss such an opportunity...

These half-bloods were looked down upon, and in the end, it was all because of their bloodline or their lack of strength. If they were powerful, who would dare to say anything.

After draining several humans dry, these little vampires finally stopped with satisfied expressions. They kicked away the desiccated corpses, wiped the blood from the corners of their mouths, and swaggered back.

Then they noticed the exceptionally cute little vampire in the corner.

A flicker of fear flashed in their eyes as they thought of something, but it was quickly replaced by disdain. This fellow creature was useless. As a vampire, to be disgusted by blood-drinking was truly laughable!

"Hey, Gasper, you useless fellow, why aren't you getting over here!"

"Pathetic, just like humans! Hahahaha."

"How can there be a vampire like you! It's disgusting to share the same race."

The slightly stronger young vampire tugged at his sleeve, staring with disdain at Gasper in the corner, his tone harsh as he insulted him.

Most of the vampires here disliked him, viewing him as a disgrace to their kind. Not only did he sympathize with lowly humans, but he even refused to drink blood when it was offered to him. What kind of vampire was that?

Facing the insults from these "fellow vampires," Gasper didn't react much; he was used to it.

However, when he saw one of the strong young vampires approaching him with a hostile expression, flexing his hands, Gasper immediately cowered and covered his head.

"Don't, don't hit me!!"

It was clear he had been bullied before.

"Hahahaha… Look at you, you're worse than a girl. Today, I'm specifically going to beat you up!"

Seeing Gasper's fear only made the young vampire want to hit him more. School bullying was just like this; the more timid you were, the easier you were to bully.

This wasn't a school, but the situation was even worse. Plus, they were vampires; it got boring staying in this place without finding some entertainment.

Bullying such an easy-to-bully vampire was the greatest entertainment.

"Don't hit me, please…"

Gasper huddled against the wall, covering his head in fear, looking even more vulnerable.

But just as he was about to be hit, a figure stepped in front of him.

"Stop! You're not allowed to bully Gasper."

It was a very cute and beautiful little girl, looking like a doll, also a half-blood vampire. Although most vampires disliked Gasper, there was one exception.

That was Valerie Tepes.

Valerie was similar to Gasper; she didn't fit in and disliked feeding on human blood, making her an anomaly among these young vampires.

Naturally, the two of them had a good relationship.

Compared to Gasper, Valerie was also somewhat cowardly, but she often stepped forward to protect him, like protecting a younger brother or sister.

Chapter 21: The Outside World?

"Valerie, you're helping this guy again? Get out of the way, or I'll hit you too."

The young vampire glared at Valerie with a frown. Although they were both half-bloods, he was somewhat hesitant because Valerie was of royal blood.

However, this royal bloodline of hers, being a mix of human and vampire, meant she wasn't taken seriously and he didn't need to be too afraid.

"I won't move."

Hearing this, Valerie remained steadfast, blocking Gasper.

"Valerie…"

Gasper looked at Valerie protecting him, feeling touched but also more self-reproachful and resentful. Yet, he couldn't muster any courage.

Furthermore, he feared his own abilities and didn't want Valerie too close to him.

"You!"

"Forget it. Leiba, if this kid loses control again, or if something… unfortunate happens, it'll still be us who suffer."

Just as the young vampire was about to get rough and attack them both, another young vampire spoke up.

Upon hearing this, most of the vampires present remembered something and all stared at Gasper with immense disgust, fear, and disdain.

His power would sometimes uncontrollably stop their time and actions. That strangeness, helplessness, and fear made all the vampires dislike him.

Especially when this kid got scared, that detestable and terrifying power would manifest more frequently.

And that wasn't even the scariest part. The truly terrifying thing was when this kid accidentally revealed his "frightening" side; he was like a completely different person.

"Hmph, I'll let you off today."

Recalling Gasper's uncontrollable abilities and the memories he couldn't bear to revisit, the young vampire stopped his attack. He glared at Gasper with disgust, issued a warning, and then turned to leave.

Soon, the other vampires followed, leaving only Valerie and Gasper, the two young vampires.

Although one was a boy and the other a girl, they looked like a pair of sisters standing together.

Seeing them disappear, Valerie breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Gasper behind her.

"Are you okay? Gasper."

"I'm fine, thank you."

Gasper stood up, lowered his head, and thanked her softly before falling silent.

From the shadows, Moonlit watched the two young vampires before her. They were the targets she was looking for. However, taking them out seemed a bit troublesome.

Her initial plan was to knock them both unconscious and then grab them to leave.

That would undoubtedly be the simplest method.

But at this moment, she hesitated, because she remembered Gasper's situation. If he was startled, his Divine Artifact would activate... it would be difficult to take him away, and it would also disturb the Vampires outside.

She wondered if she could persuade them to leave with her willingly.

From what the young girl understood, they should be eager to leave this town. In the original story, it was Valerie who desperately sent Gasper out of the Vampire settlement.

With this thought, the young girl didn't rush out to meet them.

After watching the two leave and return to their room, Miss Moonlit prepared to reveal herself.

In the room, as Gasper and Valerie were preparing to rest, they suddenly noticed a figure appear in the room, and their expressions immediately turned to shock.

"Don't shout!"

Miss Moonlit moved instantly, appearing beside the two and covering their mouths to prevent them from screaming.

However, her action seemed unnecessary, as Valerie and the other did not intend to shout at all.

Only Gasper seemed a little startled, but he did not lose control. He seemed to sense that the stranger who suddenly appeared before him had no ill intentions.

Upon clearly seeing Miss Moonlit's appearance, a hint of amazement appeared in his eyes. He stared intently with his large eyes, thinking this older sister was so beautiful.

Seeing the two nod, Miss Moonlit finally released her hands. However, she didn't completely let down her guard; if they made any other move, she would act immediately.

"...Who are you?"

Now able to speak, Valerie cautiously asked Miss Moonlit. She had never seen Miss Moonlit before and she didn't seem like a Vampire from the castle.

She didn't know why Miss Moonlit appeared here and what she wanted with them.

A sense of worry and unease inevitably arose in her heart.
