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

Chapter 723 Reaching Max Level

-----

(Blake's POV)

As the war was finally over and the night was coming, I carefreely walked back to the duchy territory with everyone else. Some looked tired, others exhausted, and a few were just excited they would get to eat a lot now after a day of hard work.

The Grimoire shone brightly as I felt my Levels rising instantly to the max Level Cap, and the information was quickly shown on its pages.

Ding!

[You and your Army have slain Thousands of Demons!]

[You and your Party have slain Three Powerful Demon Lords!]

[You earned an exorbitant quantity of EXP!]

[Your Level has increased from Level 70 to Level 80!]

[All of your Stats have increased!]

[You earned Bonus Stat Points and Skill Points!]

[Several Skills have Leveled Up.]

[You have Reached Max Level!]

[You can now Rank Up to a stronger Talent and Sub Talent.]

[Your Spirit Orb Realm Rank has increased to Tier 3: Peak Stage]

[Your Mana Points and Intelligence Stats have increased by +500 each, your Spirit Stat has increased by +50.]

[Your Physique, Magic Circle, Psyche, and Demon Core have grown stronger from both the influx of new Magic Power and also from Drinking a tremendous quantity of Demon Blood, including the Demon Blood of three Demon Lords.]

[Your [Physique]: [Vampiric Blood Emperor Physique (Tier 5: Rank 6)] has grown to Tier 5 Rank 7.]

[Your [Psyche]: [Vampiric Soul Psyche (Tier 4: Rank 5)] has grown to Tier 4 Rank 6.]

[Your [Magic Circle]: [Abyssal Blood Circle (Tier 4: Rank 6)] has grown to Tier 4 Rank 7.]

[Your [Demon Core]: [Gluttonous Demon Core (Tier 3: Rank 1)] has grown to Tier 3 Rank 5.]

[All of your Stats have increased as a result of their growth.]

Good, it was a nice harvest. I guess the only thing left to do is to Rank Up, get a new pair of Talents, and quite possibly get to Rank 4 through the Rank Up's boost.

"Well, what's done is done!" Erika sighed. "Seems like things wrapped up faster than I imagined."

"Yeah, and looks like some of us had a few developments in terms of friendship?" Elizabeth giggled, teasing Chris and Elfriedden.

"Hahahaha! Maybe." Chris laughed.

"Friends? I think that's a bit of an exaggeration, comrades maybe." Elfriedden said.

"Eh? Bastard! After all I helped you?!" Chris complained.

"Shut up, you only… screamed like a monkey halfway through everything. I was barely able to make any coherent word out of what you said." Elfriedden sighed.

"You damn long ears!" Chris suddenly started grabbing Elfriedden's ears and dragging them.

"AARGH! Let go of me you monkey!" Elfriedden and Chris started fighting.

"Yeah I guess they're getting along a bit better…" I said, although I still had my doubts. "For now, let's leave most of my familiars surrounding the city, so they can guard for any potential demons that want to attack us while we're resting."

"Ah, I guess that's smart enough." Erdrich nodded. "From what I heard about what they said, they were all scared once they realized the Lords died. Seems like they lack any pride or even fighting spirit, they just run away the moment their powerful leaders die."

"Well, that's usually what you should do in most wars, actually…" I sighed. "But well, that worked to our advantage…"

Creaaaak…!

The huge gates leading to the city opened, as the entire population greeted our return with cheers, gathering around the streets as we walked slowly inside.

"Blake! I saw everything you did… All of you! It was amazing… Thousands of demons died… And those powerful Demon Lords… I can't believe it!" Monica ran towards us. "Thank you so much for saving my home…!"

"It is just the beginning, so calm down." I laughed. "Evelyn, Lady Cattalina, thanks for guarding the city in the meantime."

"Eh? You don't call me Lady?! I'm older than you, you know?!" Evelyn said angrily.

"It was nothing, Blake." Cattalina smiled. "A few hundred demons tried to infiltrate while you were fighting outside but I swiftly sent them to a world of nightmares, where they'll never return from." She said menacingly.

"Wow, I wish mom could had joined us in the frontlines! I wanted to see more of her magic powers…" Erika said.

"Well, maybe on another occasion, dear." Cattalina smiled, giving head pats to her adorable daughter, and then a kiss in her nose. "You did a wonderful job yourself; mom is very proud." She hugged her tightly.

"E-Eh? Mom you're embarrassing me in front of my friends!" Erika blushed a bit.

"Blake." The old Eustace showed up. "I wanted to… once more, apologize for our rudeness and our lack of faith. If it wasn't thanks to you and your friends, we would had been eventually engulfed by the demon army… I am quite ashamed of myself for lacking the strength to change this duchy's fate as well… Sorry." He bowed his head.

"Don't be sorry, Eustace." I sighed. "Your reactions and thoughts were to be expected of someone that hadn't seen our abilities. If I was in your situation, I might had thought the same as well."

"Ahh… You're such a thoughtful and compassionate man, aside from being so strong, decisive, and smart!" He started praising me. "Please, marry Lady Monica! You would be an ideal ruler!"

"Ahem! Eustace?" Monica appeared behind her knight commander.

"A-Ah! Lady Monica, I was just…!" Eustace muttered.

"Sorry, but I can't. I've already been conquered by three beautiful roses, more than that, and I wouldn't be able to continue down the path I've chosen. I'm sure there might be other people for her." I said with a gentle smile.

"D-Don't worry about it please! He was just talking nonsense!" Monica giggled nervously. "A-Anyways! Let's go to the castle! We've got a big feast to enjoy! Let's celebrate as much as we can, please!"

"Alright!" Erika roared. "I'm starving!"

"When are you not starving?" Eric laughed. "Since you've been a kid that you eat as much as ten people."

"Hahaha, well, that's our Erika for you." Chris laughed.

"H-Hey! I'm not THAT gluttonous!" Erika crossed her arms while pouting.

"You know that's a lie." Elizabeth teased her.

"Well, that's something that makes you cute too." Eleanora giggled.

"G-Geez! Just let's go eat!" Erika blushed a bit, as she held my hand and dragged me to the castle.

"Hahaha, alright, alright, don't be so hasty." I laughed.
