Chapter 31: Blood Lust
“I can’t take this anymore, Master. We need to bring back Senri this instant!”
“Calm down, Neville. Your impetuousness is one of your faults.”
Neville grit his teeth as Epée frowned admonishingly.
Ten days since Senri has been gone. The Death Knights were still in the town of Engey.
The atmosphere was terrible. Senri was by no means a social person, but she was adored for her strength and natural disposition.
Now all of that was in the hands of a vampire, and the reason it came to this was because they failed to kill him, which led to Senri choosing to give herself over to the vampire. There is a limit to how much even Death Knights, who have seen their fair share tragedies, can bear.
The one who looked worse for wear was Neville, who had chosen to punish End with solar penalty. The look in his eyes that had naturally been terrible had become as dangerous as that of a wounded beast. Dark circles had formed under his eyes, probably because he had been unable to sleep tortured by nightmares and he did not look composed in the least.
The other third-class knights looked a bit better, but all of them looked at Epée gloomily.
Lufry and the rest were still third-class knights. They had plenty of training and battle experience, but were still inexperienced in the war against dark forces.
