Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start

-----

Erdrich fighting style, unlike everyone else here, is merely fist and kick based. He's a pure martial artist. Since he was taken by the church that he had been trying different weapons, but nothing seems to go with him, so he had kept himself using his mere fists and legs. Well, there's nothing wrong with that. If it wasn't because my body is frail compared to his, I would be using my hands and legs as well, they're more flexible too. But using a spear is the best for long-rang physical attacks that can reach the enemy while keeping a good distance from them at the same time.

"Alright! Here I go!" Erdrich roared, his entire body began to exude the powerful aura of his half-demon side. He had been able to channel and better control his demonic instincts and also his demonic energy thanks to the meditation training I've taught to him. Of course, there's something more than that, his Spirit.

The spirit of Erdrich is still a mystery to me, but from what I remember, it spoke the first time it appeared. It also had a slight resemblance to Cassandra, his mother, but it was way younger. His Spirit is probably a human-type spirit, but also had some ghostly and phantasmal appearance. As of now, he had not been able to bring the Spirit out, but from what I can recall, it was thanks to her that he was able to regain his composure after going insane with his demonic powers.

This spirit might have probably been born from his desires to remain human, a spirit that is not really powerful, but has the special ability of helping him regain his senses and stay calm and composed. The only way I could bring that spirit outside once more is… if I enraged Erdrich to the point he went as insane as before, but that would be dangerous, too dangerous. The soldiers and knights have agreed to keep this secret due to Ellergest's request, but if he goes changing into his full demon form, he'll attract the gazes of our neighbors, even if they're pretty far away, they'll easily notice something odd.

Therefore, if I want to test his Spirit abilities we'll have to first find a special area where we can bring him to go all out against me. But for the time being, simply helping him gather Ki into his body and learn martial arts should be enough.

"Erdrich, you have three different energies inside of your body. Your Mana, your Ki, and your Demonic Energy." I said, as Erdrich slowly began to gather his monstrous and uncontrollable aura into his body, without letting it leak out.

"Unlike Elizabeth, your Aura is almost uncontrollable due to the volatile Demonic Energy, you lack a lot of control over it, which makes it very prone to go out of control. You have to learn how to gather and shape your Aura and permeate your body with it." I said to Erdrich, as he nodded.

"Yes… I get it. I have been meditating for a while now. You've helped me more than I could have ever asked you for, Blake… I think I've got the hang of it, a little."

FLASH!

Erdrich's Aura simply grew larger after he said that. For a moment, I felt like asking him if he was saying the truth, but then, something shone brightly within his chest, as it all gathered into his body. His Aura suddenly stopped looking like a blazing flame and ended resembling merely a glowing red light permeating his body thinly. Interesting, he seems to have been practicing his control rather well.

"RAAAH!"

And a second after, without previous warning, Erdrich ran towards me. Or well, more like jumped. He was five meters away from me but jumped to me all the way from there, jumping high into the skies. He had an incredible inhumane strength and agility granted by his half-demon race.

Naturally, I enhanced my body with my Mana and Ki and used a few Spells such as [Iron Skin], [Metabolism Acceleration], [Bone Reinforcement], and more, and caught his blow with my bare palms.

CLAAASH!

"Hahah…! I knew I wouldn't be able to best you even with a surprise attack…!" Erdrich laughed. He seemed to have expected me to easily intercept him.

"Is this all you've got, Erdrich?!" I asked with a smile. I felt my heart pumping as the excitement of fighting someone strong began to make my blood boil. A second after I swung my left leg towards Erdrich and kicked him in the chest. He took the kick head-on only to punch me in the face.

BAM!

However, I intercepted his punch with the palm of my right hand, only for another fist to reach my stomach, blowing me away.

CLASH!

"Ugh…!"

I ended flying into the sky and then falling over the floor. I quickly maneuvered in midair and managed to land without complications. But the punch he gave me in the guts was strong, like the punch he gave me back then when he went insane. Has he already managed to channel such power without going insane? Interesting!

"I caught you slacking!"

Suddenly, the shadow of Erdrich emerged above me. Another jump. Little bastard.

CLAAASH!

This time, I enhanced my leg with my Ki Aura, as an explosion of red energy flew to all directions, generating a thunderous shockwave.

TRUUMM…!

"Guh…?!"

Erdrich didn't took that kick in the guts all that well, as I quickly grabbed him by the clothes and threw him away, he rolled into the floor pathetically, as I ran towards him with a smile I couldn't contain.

"Come on, Erdrich! Don't disappoint me now, it was finally getting good!"

I raised my leg and was about to kick him in the face, but Erdrich smiled back at me, his eyes blazing with demonic flare as he evaded my kick and then landed a kick of his own into my chest.

CLAAASH!

"Ngh…! Not bad!"
