So Poor, All I Have Is Money

Even if that human possessed the power of a True Ancestor, it could only delay the destruction.

"Huh? What's that...?"

Just as Elmenhilde was preparing to lead her squad in a final battle against the evil dragons, she seemed to sense something, raised her eyes, looked at the sky that was slowly cracking open, and widened her deep red eyes.

The cold wind and thick fog that enveloped the city were slowly cracking, and a ray of gold pierced through the crack, giving the perpetually gloomy city an unusual color.

The crack grew larger, and the light that seeped in became increasingly bright.

Until a certain moment.

A corner of the sky resembled a shattered mirror, from which numerous golden figures radiating holy light filed in.

"Is that... an angel?!"

Elmenhilde stared wide-eyed at the sky.

Her thoughts were a jumbled mess.

She couldn't understand why, at this critical juncture, those holy angels from Heaven would appear in their kingdom.

Vampires, the Heaven, and the Church have always been sworn enemies.

Although friction between the two sides has decreased to a negligible level in modern times, their antagonistic relationship has never changed.

Several months ago, talks between the three major Bible powers caused a huge stir in various organizations.

Many factions either rejoiced at or were deeply worried about the alliance between the three major powers.

Faced with the olive branches extended by the three major powers, the mythological forces, each with their own agendas, either hesitated or refused.

Their vampire clan naturally received peace negotiations, but they were ignored.

But now, the arrival of the angel has caused Elmenhilde's heart to waver.

Could it be that their uncooperative and unresponsive attitude angered the Heaven, leading them to decide to launch an attack on the vampire clan at this time, aiming to completely annihilate them?

Thinking of this, the vampires felt even more desperate.

But the results that followed clearly exceeded their expectations.

Angels radiating dazzling holy light wielded swords or Spear of Light as they battled the evil dragon and began to heal the wounded vampires.

The vampires, who were finally able to relax after the reinforcements arrived, were completely stunned.

At first, they were overwhelmed with worry about the impending doom.

But not long after, angels from the Heaven descended one after another. Although they were not as numerous as the evil dragon, their quality was much better.

Most vampires initially believed that the angels in Heaven were deliberately taking advantage of their misfortune by choosing this moment to devour the vampire race, but the angels' sole target was the evil dragons.

With the arrival of the angels, the scales of the battle began to tip.

Elmenhilde opened her eyes wide.

What exactly happened?

Are these angels really here to save us?!

No one would tell the vampire girl the answer, but the image of Ren kept appearing in Elmenhilde's mind.

Mass-produced evil dragons don't have much combat power to begin with, and the angels that Griselda brought this time are all elites.

Therefore, the originally precarious battle situation was quickly reversed.

With the last evil dragon destroyed by several Spear of Light, this sudden war finally came to an end.

However, the roads, buildings, and everything in the city were destroyed by the evil dragon, and the former scenery was completely gone.

"What exactly is going on? Where did these evil dragons come from?"

Gazing at the ruins and the city engulfed in smoke and flames, the bewildered girl began to ask herself this question.

"Actually, these evil dragons are all vampires in disguise, um... mainly the vampires from your Carmilla Faction."

A voice suddenly came from behind, Elmenhilde couldn't help but turn around.

She saw that man again.

Compared to ten minutes earlier, he still appeared calm and confident.

How did you know?

"Because I just came from Tepes's place a dozen minutes ago, you should have heard about the Longinus. They used the Longinus to weaken your vampire weaknesses, but someone exploited the loopholes, and instead of becoming perfect beings, they turned into evil dragons."

"The vast majority of those who destroyed the city were traitors from your Carmilla Faction."

"Traitor..."

Now that things had come to this, Elmenhilde had no choice but to believe what was happening before her eyes.

In fact, she realized halfway through that these evil dragons possessed some vampire characteristics.

After being killed, they will turn to ashes and disappear, just like vampires when they die.

It also doesn't have much resistance to the holy light spears launched by angels.

But when Ren actually told her the truth, she still felt dizzy.

Because she carries the dignity and honor of a vampire.

In her eyes, the vampires living in Carmilla City were the most loyal warriors.

But reality shattered her beliefs.

"How could this happen? Traitors attacked our homeland! Why did they betray us?"

By accepting the enhancements of the Longinus and weakening their own weaknesses, without those defining characteristics, can a vampire still be a vampire?

Seeing her like this, Ren didn't say anything more.

However, just as she was about to leave, she heard a voice behind her.

"Please wait a moment."

Turning around, Elmenhilde stood up with the help of a member of her household.

"Thank you for your assistance this time. The Karnstein Family will remember this kindness."

In fact, anyone with eyes can see who summoned those angels.

Although invading someone else's territory is considered a declaration of war, it was not unreasonable in the previous situation.

Moreover, Carmilla true ancestor, is currently in a meeting with the Seraphim who is leading the angels this time in a temporary conference room, so she probably doesn't have any other words to say besides expressing her gratitude.

At least in the future, a peace agreement between the two sides is inevitable.

As for Ren...

Elmenhilde was very curious about who he really was.

"Are you an exorcist from the Church?"

"No, I'm just a mercenary passing through."

Ren wasn't actually making a joke with that statement.

After all, he could have simply left after resolving the Tepes Faction incident.

But then I thought about it again and came directly to Carmilla Faction's territory; saying I was just passing through was also quite accurate.

Upon hearing this, Elmenhilde felt her face burning even more.

Is this a deliberate dig at the time when she refused his help?

Moreover, without his help and notification to the Heaven, Carmilla City would indeed have been destroyed.

But she didn't put on any airs of high society at this moment. Instead, she straightened her back, bowed slightly to Ren, and performed a graceful curtsy.

"I am Elmenhilde Karnstein, you can call me Elmenhilde."

"Ren," Ren said, "Just Ren."

"Ren."

Elmenhilde held the name in her mouth for a moment, chewing over it.

"I'll remember you, Ren."

"Then let's settle the bill first," Ren said. "Although you refused my help, I did save quite a few civilians from your Carmilla Faction, but none of them had any money. Since you are a nobleman, you should fulfill your responsibility."

Upon hearing this, Elmenhilde was taken aback at first, and then let out a series of rare, silvery laughs.

Chapter 255 So poor they only had money left

Humans need to learn to find joy in hardship, and vampires are no exception.

With the city damaged to this extent, it will be difficult to restore it to its original state in less than a year or two.

Although Carmilla true ancestor, knew during their conversation that these evil dragons were due to the enhancement of the Holy Grail within Valerie, she couldn't blame Valerie for it.

After all, she had become distracted and her will was no longer under her control because she was constantly being dragged into research and using her powers to strengthen vampires.

As for the armed coup plotters of the Tepes Faction, they have now become nourishment for that land, buried underground along with the collapse of the castle, and even if Carmilla wanted to cause trouble, she couldn't find them.

Therefore, in the end, everyone could only focus their anger on "Lizevim" mentioned by Ren.

Of course, Lizevim is not the most important.

The most important thing is what Lizevim needs to do.

Although Lizevim did not appear directly in front of Ren, nor did he openly state his grand plan to destroy the world as in the original work, Ren still revealed information about Lizevim.

The so-called resurrection of the evil dragon is a minor matter; the most important thing is that Lizevim intends to break the seal on the Beast of Revelation.

This is going to be quite a joke.

While Carmilla was still confused about Lizevim and what the Beast of Revelation was, Gabriel, who was leading the group of angels, suddenly changed his attitude.

Griselda had never seen such a flustered and nervous expression on her old boss's face.

Therefore, they subconsciously felt tense and solemn.

"Lizevim is actually going to resurrect that apocalyptic beast. This is really troublesome."

"Seraph, what exactly is the Beast of Doomsday? Why has it caused you to... lose your composure?"

Carmilla is a beautiful woman dressed in luxurious medieval noble attire. Her vampire constitution allows her to maintain her youth, but due to her previous battle with the evil dragon, her mature and beautiful face shows some signs of fatigue.

Upon hearing this, Gabriel took a deep breath.

This movement caused her impressive bust to heave violently a few times, but apart from Ren who had activated auto-aiming, no one else noticed it. After all, they were all women, except for Ren.

Then, Gabriel earnestly explained the origin of the Doomsday Beast to everyone present.

Ren stopped; what Gabriel said was pretty much what he already knew.

The Beast of Revelation was first discovered by the God of the Bible at the ends of the world while it was sleeping. The God of the Bible then sealed the entrance and informed Michael and the other seraphim about it.

However, the God of the Bible did not elaborate on the specifics.

Not long after, the God of the Bible returned exhausted after a period of absence. Knowing that his days were numbered, He declared war on the other two major powers, killing most of the Fallen Angels, the Four Great Satans, and annihilating half of the pure-blooded demons before disappearing in exhaustion.

As for the whereabouts and condition of the Beast of Revelation, even Michael and the other seraphim knew nothing about it.

As for other forces...

The Beast of Revelation is more like a fictional creature from legend, used to highlight the power of the Heaven.

Even Michael and Gabriel had almost forgotten about it.

To everyone's surprise, a thousand years later, Gabriel heard that name again.

Lizevim is not scary; what is scary is the Beast of Revelation he wields.

Once the seal is broken, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Mr. Ren, the information you provided is very important, but this matter is of great importance, so I may not be able to catch up with you today. I must take this message back immediately. Of course, if Mr. Ren is willing, I can take you with me."

Gabriel said solemnly.

"I'm not going."
