Vampires... They are a rather interesting race here in the world of DXD. They had so much potential, with their racial abilities. As well as the simple ability to gain power from the powerful beings they drank the blood of.
If they were smart, they wouldn't be such antagonistic, arrogant assholes... As look at my quintuplets. They were only vampires for a few months, and yet with training and a supply of blood from Ultimate class beings and my contract with them.
They were all low Ultimate Class in strength. Very low in Ultimate class if not peak High class. But other vampires? Most of them capped out at High Class after drinking the weak blood of normal, mundane humans almost entirely.
The burning holy power of Qian Renxue's Seraphim martial soul was like light acid, and it made the newborn vampire scout we captured scream before it literally melted before our gaze in but moments.
"My mere wings light upon their unholy forms is lethal. Truly they are a wretched beast of darkness that needs to be cleansed from this world." Qian Renxue spat at seeing the pile of ashes on the ground.
"We will wipe out all the vampires we come across Qian Renxue, I promise that." I said firmly before I turned to look out the window of the safe house we took over that was in a small city that wasn't far from the Tepes factions main castle.
And this city well known across the world for it's 'horrid' crime rate was clearly just a blood bag farm for the vampires of the main castle to have easier access as well as a bit of a hunting ground.
"You five know your positions, you are assigned to one of us as we purge inwards and you are to kill any vampires that flee or escape our net. But just to clarify, let me run through our approach again." I spoke.
Turning to Bibbi Dong, I said. "Bibbi Dong, you approach from the north of the castle's estate."
Then to the silver-haired dragon woman who was leaning on the wall to the side I said. "Gu Yuena, you take the west, and use your fire to push the vampires more towards the central castle."
To Qian Renxue, I added. "You are in charge of the south, starting a couple of minutes later, so that your zone will look like an escape path in which you will cleanse with your holy attacks."
I then looked to Mash and Mami before I smiled and said. "Mami, Mash, you are to deal with the east together, while you Quintuplets split up to support the angled directions to form a true net they can't escape from."
Bibbi Dong hummed and then said thoughtfully. "And you will go for the central castle correct?"
All the ladies looked... Unhappy at me going alone but still I nodded before adding. "Correct. While you all are slaughtering them outwards and towards the center. I am going in for a surgical strike to kill their leadership and to secure a treasure for our faction."
Taking a breath, I continued. "Within the depths of the faction, the wielder of the Longinus Sepiroth Graal lies kept in chains. With their aid, to say nothing of their power and other abilities. Having the Graal open to my use, could help the souls of the Spirit Beasts stuck inside of me, get new bodies in this world."
I felt the spirit beasts in question inside of my soul shift thoughtfully, but they didn't manifest as they knew that I couldn't support them all running around and fighting as well.
As it was going to literally be a good couple of years before they could recover enough soul strength to be able to manifest outside of myself and be able to attack with their full strength.
Especially as they would still be using alot of their soul strength to give me and the others Soul Rings as well.
Either way... Gu Yuena bounced a bit off the wall as she asked rather bluntly. "And how strong is the leadership of this faction anyway?"
To which I shrugged and said with complete honesty. "I am not sure. Either low Ultimate class or more towards the medium. I can take care of them without a doubt."
"The bigger issue, is that I need to take care of them quickly. Lest they decide to just teleport out with the Sepiroth Graal user. And I would very much prefer to clear the castle out without destroying it so any prisoners could be released as well."
"Hmm, having those prisoners act as the survivors to spread word of Spirit Hall's power would serve perfectly as well. Leaving any vampires alive of this particular faction behind would be... Problematic as I rather not deal with any revenge down the line." Bibbi Dong said rather cooly.
Then Qian Renxue added on. "Also, what about the other vampire factions? The Carmilla faction that is the opposite of the Tepes clan in being a faction of extreme men haters, and the other bloodlines in general?"
"The Carmilla faction we can chop down whenever... The Tepes faction is the strongest of the vampire bloodlines, so destroying them, destroys the root support of the vampires here in Europe."
At best, the Carmilla clan had a couple of low ranked Ultimate-class vampires... And with my Mystic Eye's of Death Perception, Death Scythe, and Holy Evil Sea. I was one of the worst enemies a vampire could have even if they were strong enough to be resistant to holy shit.
