Harlia was in front of Malvador.
The Vampire king had no choice but to fight her as he believed he wouldn't be able to run away and swallow more hearts.
So, he readied himself and raised his sword, Gemini.
Harlia launched herself towards him with her full strength.
She raised her right fist and Malvador raised his Gemini.
Both the flesh and steel clashed with a loud sound and Malvador hoped to see some blood.
But what he saw made him unaware of the strength of his Gemini as Harlia, with her fist, had bent the edge of his sword.
Malvador's sword could suck the blood of his enemies as Malvador had killed the first High Duke like that at the start. Gemini had turned the man into a husk.
But the sword could only suck the blood of the enemies who got cut with it in the first place. The High Duke had grabbed Gemini with his bare hand and in doing so, he had gotten cut on his palm and that cut was enough for Gemini to kill the man.
