Leo and Celise made their way through the hydra’s venom.

Dio, who was next to him, was also afraid at first, but later he seemed to have adapted to it, and he guided the two of them to the place he had gone to.

“This way.”

“I think I know from here.”

After reaching a certain distance, Leo no longer needed Dio’s guidance.

It was because he felt the energy of blood magic that stimulated his senses in a subtle way.

It was so feeble that even Leo couldn’t feel it unless he concentrated on it.

How far did he advance through the bushes rustling?

“Here you go.”

Leo and his party were able to reach the barrier of blood magic that Dio had discovered.

It was invisible to the general public, but it was clearly visible to Leo, who could penetrate mana itself.

Leo stared at the barrier.

It was a barrier in the form of a hemisphere that covered a certain area, and the area was so wide that it seemed to be larger than a considerable territory.

“D.I.O.”

“Your master.”

“This barrier. It looks like it was made with blood magic, can you even guess?”

When Leo pointed to the barrier and asked, D.O replied with an apologetic expression.

“sorry. Since my level is only 3rd class… It was unreasonable to find out.”

“Hmm.”

Leo said ‘chubby’ and tapped the barrier lightly.

Blue mana flashed from his silver eyes, and he read the depths of the barrier.

‘The intruder prevention magic, the magic that conceals the power flowing from within, I made a separate condition to enter there.’

Although the range was so wide, several magics were working in combination.

I couldn’t believe it even when I saw it.

I never thought that a barrier of this size would be spread out as if it were hidden like this.

It was something Leo could never do.

‘Did anything I felt before flow from within?’

The weak aura of blood magic that I felt for a moment when the monsters of Poison Land came.

If it flowed from the inside, it means that it broke through a barrier of this level.

Considering that it had pierced such a shield, it was quite possible to guess how enormous energy it must have been.

In other words, this plan is very dangerous.

Celise asked from the side.

“Lowering. die here You’d better ask Commander Hanson or Earl Guillotine for help.”

There was a slight concern in her eyes.

It was dangerous ahead, so he meant to bring reinforcements.

Leo grinned.

“no.”

“But lower… .”

“I know what you want to say. But no.”

The future that Leo knows is to flow peacefully in a state of confrontation as it is.

However, it would be a big deal if you brought Earl Guilloten or Hanson with you, and both of them died.

A war could break out between the human side and the vampires.

‘And if the vampires are doing some tricks inside, I’ll at least check it out.’

If you run away because you are afraid, your future may be completely twisted.

Besides, other reinforcements weren’t that far away, so I was confident of running away.

Leo focused his mind with both hands on the barrier.

I felt my eyes open, and the barriers began to be analyzed in detail.

It was still at a high level that he couldn’t touch, but it was possible to create a slight gap.

A detour was inserted between the visible magic formulas, and conditions were added so that people below a certain level could pass.

– Gigi Geek!

There was a sound of the barrier swaying, and a space large enough for one person to enter opened.

“… crazy. Did you transform the barrier?”

D.O spit out his inner thoughts without even realizing it.

He had a dejected expression.

He was also a wizard, so he was well aware of how absurd the incident had just been.

While performing a half-miraculous thing, Leo spoke casually.

“Let’s go in.”

They moved into the barrier.

* * *

“Road. I cut off all but one of the hydra’s heads.”

“Good work.”

A man with red hair and pale skin praised his subordinate.

He didn’t even look at him, but his subordinate trembled as if he was thrilled with just that one word.

Vampire Lord Garibaldi.

The ruler of all vampires, and the one who took the throne over his brothers with overwhelming power.

That was the identity of this man.

-Kyaaa!!

In front of Garibaldi, a gigantic Hydra roared.

The other vampires around me made an impression.

‘To make Rod hear such a loud noise.’

‘I want to kill you right now!’

Vampires made an impression.

However, they had to understand the hydra.

It was because the condition of the guy screaming in pain was not normal.

All nine heads were severed except for one in the middle, and the huge body and legs were full of scars.

Damage that is difficult to recover easily even with the hydra’s tremendous regenerative power!

Garibaldi, who had been watching him for a while, said.

“Did you say that the one who took the flute of seduction was Charpin?”

“That’s right.”

flute of seduction.

One of the treasures of the former Vampire Lord, it is an artifact that has the effect of controlling monsters.

“Even though he is my brother, he is a nuisance until he dies. To think he took it and then disappeared.”

Garibaldi sighed weakly.

Charpen barely survived the road battle and fled.

I don’t know how the hell he got it, with the flute of deception.

A pursuer pursued him, but failed as far as the West Coast.

His traces were completely cut off.

The tracking team determined that he was dead after he had fled further west to the danger zone.

“sorry. It’s all because of our lack.”

“done. I know it’s not your fault.”

Garibaldi shook his head.

Although the flute of seduction could not be retrieved, Garibaldi possessed various powerful powers befitting a Lord.

One of them was the ‘power of dominance’, which was the ability to manipulate monsters according to one’s will.

“If my father had seen it, he would have said it was pathetic. Because I don’t have a flute, I can’t properly control a single Hydra.”

Garibaldi let out a self-deprecating laugh.

With the flute of seduction, you could not only dominate super-giant monsters like Hydra, but also form an army made up of monsters.

However, even a single hydra was not easy with the power of control alone.

One of his lower subordinates spoke cautiously.

“I… Won’t that fellow soon become subject to the authority of the Lord?”

“I guess so. That’s why I’m here struggling.”

To dominate a powerful creature like a hydra without a flute, it was necessary to subdue it.

First of all, it hurts and injures and breaks the spirit.

Then, no matter how powerful he was, he had no choice but to be subordinate to the ruling power.

That’s why Garibaldi was out of the vampire’s territory and came this far.

In order to break through the hydra’s tremendous attack power and regenerative power and subdue it, someone as strong as Garibaldi needed to take care of it.

– Kyaaa!

The hydra thumped and turned its back and began to move.

As his men startled, Garbaldi raised his hand.

“Don’t be rash. He runs away in fear. That’s a good sign. It is not long before we completely surrender.”

– Giiing!

Garibaldi’s eyes glowed red in the shape of a cross.

The hydra, whose eyes met, was in pain, but somehow moved to widen the distance.

Looking at him, Garibaldi muttered.

“Even if you’ve been here, how much more do you want to go?”

It’s blocked by a barrier anyway, so he can’t get out of this area.

I’d rather just let him struggle, he’ll subdue him a little quicker.

Garibaldi started to move slowly as he watched the hydra run away.

* * *

After entering the barrier, Leo and the others moved cautiously.

“The air is different. It feels incredibly alive.”

Selize said with a nervous expression while holding out her sword.

As an expert-class knight, she is a strong person who can easily defeat a few monsters.

But even though the monster hadn’t appeared yet, her palms were already damp with tension.

“And the more you go into this place, the stronger the miasma is.”

“Certainly what you say is correct. Even though I took a neutralizer, my skin still stings.”

Leo himself says he’s fine thanks to the serum, but Celise and Dio are dangerous.

If the venom thickens beyond the capacity of the neutralizing agent, they will not be able to survive.

[Freezing structural formula – full plate mail]

– Damn it

As Leo swung his hand, frost formed over Selize and Dio’s bodies, creating instant ice armor.

It was in the form of full-body full plate mail and even wearing a helmet, so the skin was not exposed at all.

“It will feel better if you wear it.”

“thank you. Aren’t you wearing it?”

“I don’t need it.”

Leo shook his head.

I’m already out of breath, but I can’t walk around wearing ice armor.

“ah… . understand.”

“… … .”

When Celise nodded as if guessing, it was Leo who somehow felt his pride hurt.

D.O was admiring while wearing ice armor.

“Oh oh. This armor is great. It’s very sturdy. Besides, the miasma coming from the outside has definitely decreased.”

He seems to be quite satisfied.

That was the moment.

-Kyaaa!!

A deafening noise was heard.

thud! thud! The streets were accompanied by the sound of footsteps.

It feels like the whole dogji is shaking!

The three of them, including Leo, were nervous.

‘Now I see that the barrier is blocking sound and vibration.’

This loud sound was not felt at all outside the barrier.

Moments later, a gigantic monster emerged from among the towering trees.

“Oh, no… !”

“!!”

Celise and Dio’s eyes widened.

Because the appearance of the monster was shocking.

It gives goosebumps just by looking at it, and it seems like fear eats into your heart!

“Hydra!”

Dio screamed like a scream.

It was the owner of this poison paper, and a monster that led to one of the absolute monsters.

“Do, do, run away!”

“Lowering! Get up! I will escape immediately!”

The two said in a half panic.

Leo also nodded.

The way he took down the hydra was by surprise with various preparations, not head-to-head.

If you stick like this, you have a 100% chance of dying.

Leo, who was about to ride on Celise’s back, suddenly noticed something strange.

“wait for a sec. Stop it, Selina.”

“Lowering. There is no time!”

“No, not that. Isn’t that guy normal?”

When Leo first created the character, he made a 10 Intelligence Talent with the dice.

It not only makes you understand things and laws, but also makes you feel the emotions of living beings a little better.

Even if it was a monster that couldn’t communicate.

Fear, horror, despair, etc.

All I could feel from Hydra was those dark emotions.

‘Come to think of it, I can only see one head.’

Where did the other 8 of the 9 heads go?

Leo focused mana in his eyes.

I increased my eyesight to take a closer look at him.

I could only see a little through the tall trees, but I could see the dense wounds covering her entire body.

Moreover, decisively.

‘… Those pupils.’

The eyes of the big hydra were not normal.

Originally, it should have been torn vertically in yellow color, but a red cross was revealed above it.

Leo knew what it was.

‘… It is Garibaldi’s power of control.’

Vampire Lord, Garibaldi.

He made the hydra that way.

That means he’s here!

Leo made up his mind to run away faster.

But at that moment, Leo’s brain instinctively came up with a result he hadn’t even thought about.

A state of Hydra that is not physically normal.

Being half-attacked by the power of domination, a mental barrier that is virtually non-existent.

And the Power of Dominion, which works hard to dominate Hydra.

Lastly, the flow of mana that the power of control is spewing out, clearly visible to his eyes.

Leo read the flow in a short moment.

The [God of Spell Interpretation] attribute analyzed the complex flow in a short time.

Unknowingly, I moved the mana and twisted it.

Normally, this kind of interference would not have been possible, but since the authority and the spirit of the Hydra were fighting, Leo had a chance to enter.

In just a few breaths, the authority was seized and changed.

After a while, Leo made a surprised expression.

‘Is this going to happen?’

– Curry.

The hydra bowed respectfully in front of Leo.

Suddenly, his pupils turned into silvery crosses.
