Chapter 29 - Exiled Vampire Vaelthar

Kaelion: Even with the empowerment effect…

this is the damage I dealt…

Vaelthar: My turn.

(whispers from behind Kaelion)

Kaelion suddenly turns around but it's useless…

Vaelthar has already driven his claws into Kaelion's heart.

NULL VEIL

[-80… HP]

Kaelion: Shit! That was way too close!

A direct strike aimed at my heart…

I could've died from that…

I used Null Veil at the last second…

Vaelthar: My, my… where did you run off to?

(licks Kaelion's cursed blood from his claws)

Two hundred years… and this is the first taste of blood I've had…

Kaelion slips behind Vaelthar, gripping his sword tightly, and unleashes a powerful vertical slash.

System Message… Null Veil Terminated…

(Predator's Tear) (First attack from behind deals +30% damage)

[-300 HP]

Vaelthar: Ah!! Damn! That hurt!!

System Message… You Caught Your Opponent Off Guard… 1 second stun.

Kaelion uses this chance to drive his sword from Vaelthar's nape toward his throat.

[-400 HP] Critical Damage!

Vaelthar grabs the sword lodged in his throat with both hands.

Meaning this wasn't the finishing blow…

Kaelion: What?! Not fazed by all that damage?!

Vaelthar: Your attacks sting… but they're not enough…

(He pulls the sword all the way through his throat and ends up holding it in his hands.)

Kaelion: You're going to fight with a sword that was just inside your throat? Seriously?

Vaelthar: This… is nothing…

(his eyes turn black and red)

Playtime is over.

(appears behind Kaelion)

Kaelion: Shit! When ?!

Vaelthar drives his claws into Kaelion's heart again.

[-1000 HP]

Vaelthar: Wow… so you didn't die, huh?

Kaelion: Agh…

(nearly blacks out)

Vaelthar: If you're not dead yet…

(tightens his grip on Kaelion's heart)

[-200 HP]

(Passive Skill) Fate's Reprieve Activated…

Player HP dropped below 0… Current HP +20…If your HP becomes -1 or lower within 30 seconds, you will die…

Kaelion grabs his sword and...

NULL VEIL

Kaelion: Shit! If not for the skill, I'd be dead…

Is this death…?

I've used Null Veil too much…

I barely have any mana left…

Vaelthar: Let's see where you hid this time…

Kaelion appears behind Vaelthar again and strikes horizontally this time.

System Message… Null Veil has been canceled…

[-0 HP]

Kaelion: Shit! How?!

Vaelthar: Did you really think the same trick would work again?
