Vampire Summoner's Rebirth: Summoning The Vampire Queen At The Start-Chapter 996: Moving To The Rosenheim Dukedom

-----

"Anyways, before we depart, I want everyone to drink these." I placed the Elixirs over the table. "Divine Dragon Elixirs made using Bestellen's Divine Dragon Blood. Also, Erika, eat this I prepared for you."

"Huh?" I placed into the table a huge plate with a giant, sizzling hot steak covered on a spicy and sweet sauce. It was actually Bestellen's whole heart, which I cut into large chunks and cooked in a flash using my flames. "Sniff, ooh! Smells so good!"

"What's that?! Can't we have some?" Chris asked.

"I am drooling…" Alberta muttered.

"No, you guys only drink the elixirs. This is Bestellen's whole heart. It was incredibly hard to roast, I had to use my strongest flames for that. Erika is the only one compatible with this and she will eat it." I said.

"Only Erika… I can guess why, she's part dragon after all." Nodded Erdrich. "It's fair, if she doesn't eat the whole thing she won't get the complete upgrade after all. Though, I thought she had to eat it whole and raw?"

"Not necessarily, that's a bit. As long as she ingests all of its components, no matter how they've been processed, her heart will evolve." I said. "Actually, cooking it like this might have improved its absorption capabilities."

"Hehehe! All for me? Oh my gosh!" Erika gasped. "Thank you so much, Blake! I love you more than anything, mooch!" Erika gave me a big kiss on my cheek before she started eating happily. "Hmm!

So good!"

As Erika enjoyed her meal everyone else was only drinking the Elixirs while looking at her eat. They weren't even paying attention to their own breakfasts anymore.

"Come on man…" Chris muttered.

"T-This is indeed a bit unfair…" Alberta cried.

"I have to admit that it smells really amazing…" Eric sighed.

"Hah, this is a torture…" Erdrich laughed.

I even noticed Elfriedden, his mother and his brother acting the same.

"S-Such delicious and enticing smell, the heart of a divine dragon… Such a delicacy, and it will all be eaten by a single girl…? T-This is unacceptable…" Everfrost was whispering to herself, making sure I wouldn't listen to her, but I could.

"I'm not even into eating meat but this is… Completely different." Elfriedden said.

"Ooh, smells so nice! Can't I have some? Pleaseeee?" Sapphirus asked.

"Nuh-huh~ It's all mine, hehehe!" Erika kept munching on the meat, she was already halfway through.

As Erika teased them, everyone started losing their minds.

"Hah, you guys are so hopeless… I was planning on using this meat for a special occasion but, I suppose it might complement well the Elixirs." I sighed.

I took out of my inventory a handful of huge chunks of meat and started cutting it into steaks and walked to the kitchen, the smell of grilled meat covered the entire manor, as I brought back several plates of Bestellen's steak.

"There, now eat and stop complaining." I sighed.

"OOOOHHH!"

Everyone roared in unison and excitement, taking large bites off the divine dragon steak while relishing every single second. They seemed very happy for some reason.

"Thank you Blake, you're the best!" Alberta said.

"T-This is so good!" Eric cried.

"Amazing, I can't stop eating, the flavors are so intense!" Chris said.

"I don't think normal meat will ever taste good after this…" Erdrich muttered. "Incredible…"

"I-I am speechless…" Elizabeth muttered.

"Hm?! T-This is so delightful!" Elfriedden cried.

"Aaahh~ I am in heaven with each bite!" Lady Everfrost was moaning, and loudly.

"Nom, nom, sho good!" Sapphirus enjoyed it.

I sat down to eat some myself; the meat was indeed incredibly flavorful, juicy, and even a bit sweet, it was an incredible combination of flavors I had never tried before.

"It… It truly is good…" I nodded, smiling.

After we had our breakfast of divine dragon steak, and Erika finished her meal, she patted her belly after burping a bit.

"Phew, that was good~" She sighed in relief.

The effects were immediate after that, she was startled as her aura suddenly gained a divine light.

FLASH!

"Woah…!"

I sensed it, rushing through her chest all the way to her heart, everything was powered up and strengthened. She gained a new power, a new divine dragon heart!

"Oooh…"

The Aura slowly became thinner until it disappeared, but Erika was still left startled, looking at her own hands.

"I feel so strong now… Like, I could do anything." Her eyes glowed with divine golden light. "What happened to me?"

"Seems to have worked properly." I nodded. "Your Dragon Heart was refined into a Divine Dragon Heart, congrats. You're now a Divine Dragon… of sorts."

"Eh?! That easy?" Erika asked. "No way…"

"Haha, you think it's easy what we did? Defeating a Divine Dragon is no easy feat at all…" I smiled.

I also noticed that everyone that drank the dragon elixir powered up, so they were all looking stronger than before.

Their Auras weren't as amazingly strong as Erika in terms of Divinity, but there were now small hints of it rushing through their bodies.

"Looks like we're done here," I nodded. "Lady Everfrost, can you bring us to his majesty's castle?"

"A-Ah, yes! But of course! Please come with me." She nodded happily. "It's finally time for the formal greetings."

"Indeed…" I nodded.

We'll see what the King is up to, and if he's truly just a King, or something else entirely.

I can't sense any Demonic Energy within the city though, if there are any cultists, they're definitely hiding really well.

But for now, it seems everything is relatively safe, a good morning for the incoming days, which will all be full of bloodshed as we shred our path through the continent to free it from the endless armies of demons and monsters.

We took on the car-like carriages after breakfast and swiftly moved through the city of Emerald Fountain, taking on an underground road towards the nearby Rosenheim Dukedom, where the King and the royal family were living right now after they were forced to move away from the capital upon Fafnir's arrival.

The underground road was supposedly well guarded with a barrier and everything. It should have been a safe and short travel to the Rosenheim Dukedom.

Crack, crack…!

CRASH!

"ROOOAARR!"

But of course it wasn't.

The ceiling broke open, the magic barrier shattered easily, and hundreds of draconic monsters and demons entered the tunnel.

"Hah, they didn't even let me get to the King, they're sure impatient."
