The afterlife blew up Gensokyo

However, she hadn't taken more than a few steps when she felt dizzy, and the world before her was engulfed by large swathes of darkness. After swaying and barely managing to stay upright for a moment, she collapsed to the ground and passed out.

"Want to leave? My beloved daughter, you are now the hope for the rise of our Twailet family, how could I possibly let you leave?"

Looking at Sophie who had fainted on the ground, Coolos shook his head with great regret.

"Now that you've become a member of the vampire clan, you should also be prepared to be a vampire. Humans are just food for us. So what if you secretly released those blood slaves before? I've always known what you did. No one in this house can hide anything from me. Secretly releasing those humans captured to be eaten, desperately persuading those hired servants to escape the Twaiilet family, carefully feeding that unicorn every day... But so what? The humans you released were still captured by us. Those servants scorned your words in the face of high wages. Since the unicorn will only accept your feeding, your feeding is my special permission. Otherwise, how could you have so much food? Your life was given by me, your future is decided by me, everything about you is in my control... And you still dare to dream of leaving? Who gave you the courage?"

He raised the cup, gazing at the few drops of blood inside with a look of rapture, a sickly flush spreading across Kuros's face.

“If we could acquire more of this blood, our Tewailet family would replace the Scarlet family and become the most powerful family among vampires. In the end, I might even surpass the Allah… Ah, what beautiful blood this is…”

—Shi Bai, who was far away at the hotel, suddenly felt a chill for no apparent reason.

"what happened to you?"

Turning her head to look at Shi Bai, who suddenly seemed uncomfortable, Huan Yue looked completely bewildered.

"I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a chill... It must be my old enemies talking about me behind my back."

Shi Bai waved his hand and pointed to the map of the Tulip family that had just been delivered by Iris's butler on the table.

"Never mind that. What's the plan? The wedding is just around the corner. Have you decided what to do yet?"

"Is there even a question? Of course, the trial will be held right there at the wedding! The evil deeds of those vampires will be exposed to the public!!"

Sally slammed her hand on the table and spoke fiercely.

While Shi Bai was playing stealthily and going on a rampage, Sally El had already returned to the church and launched a cleansing operation there.

The saying that the brighter the light, the deeper the darkness hidden beneath one's feet is indeed true. She was already furious with just a rough exploration before, and after discovering several horrific secret rooms in the church's underground, she became even more unusually angry.

In the name of God, they committed despicable acts. The clergy in those churches who became vampires have been completely corrupted. After rescuing the survivors, Sariel chose to purify those sins with fire.

Having witnessed that hellish scene firsthand, she now harbors absolutely no goodwill towards vampires.

"Good heavens, are you trying to turn someone's wedding into a funeral?"

Rolling his eyes, Shi Bai seemed a little speechless.

"If you were still an angel, with an angelic ring and pure white wings, that would be true judgment. But judging from your current appearance, people would immediately see you as a villain, wouldn't they?"

Shi Bai pointed to Huan Yue beside him.

"Believe it or not, even compared to you, she's more like an angel."

"Wait a minute, what do you mean 'even if it's me'?!"

"Therefore, violence is not the way to go; we must learn to be clever."

Ignoring the demon's protest, Shi Bai spoke seriously.

"Furthermore, not all vampires are evil. There are good and bad people, good and bad demons, and good and bad vampires. It's best not to generalize."

"Then what do you want?"

After hearing Shi Bai's words, Sally's mood immediately soured.

"Are we just going to stand by and watch those vampires continue to harm humans?"

"Oh, it's simple, just kill them all."

“…I think you have a problem.”

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Shi Bai stuffed a lollipop into his mouth and spoke with an air of self-righteousness.

“It’s too much trouble to try them one by one. Anyway, you’re no longer working for your former boss, so why bother promoting his reputation? In my opinion, just kill them all and be done with it. Let them go to hell to atone for their sins. It’s the same as killing them all.”

"What if innocent people get hurt?!"

The roles between the two seem to have been reversed.

"Tch! Every single one of those who went to the wedding was not innocent... Besides, it's about fighting the rich and distributing the land, right? I am the modern-day Marx, so let me lead the vast working people of the Western world to fire the first shot of the revolution!!"

Sitting up straight, the man had a righteous and noble look on his face, holding a sickle and hammer that had appeared out of nowhere.

"...So you're planning to kill your employer too?"

You mean Ellis?

Shi Bai glanced at the map on the table and curled his lip in disdain.

"You'll understand a truth when the time comes."

"Reason? What reason?"

"He who slays the dragon will become the dragon himself."

PS: There might be another update later.

Chapter Nine: Ignore everything else, the entrance must be cool.

Soon, the wedding between the Tulip family and the Twaiilet family proceeded as scheduled. Marriages between noble families carried considerable weight in this city.

Although the wedding day was a cloudy day with no sun, the city was noticeably more lively than usual. The joy of the wedding overshadowed the tragedy of the church burning to ashes for no reason, and the whole city was quite bustling.

The wedding was originally supposed to be officiated by the priest in the church who would bestow divine blessings upon the newlyweds, but due to an unexplained fire at the church, the wedding proceedings had to be slightly altered.

"...This is the foolproof infiltration you were talking about?"

Looking at the innocent victim being skillfully dragged into the bushes, Huan Yue's lips twitched.

"If I just kill everyone who sees me, wouldn't that be the same as no one ever finding me?"

Shi Bai looked quite confident and assertive.

"This is the most advanced infiltration technique; most people can't learn it. You think you're on the second layer, but actually I'm already in the troposphere."

"........."

"Something's not right. This person is actually already dead."

Sally frowned as she stood up from beside the servant dressed in waiter's attire.

"His blood had long been drained, but the vampires used evil magic to make him appear like a normal person. This manor..."

"Oh? As expected of a knowledgeable wizard, he certainly cannot be underestimated..."

Before Sallyel could finish her sentence, applause erupted from the side, and a mocking voice came from the side.

"Welcome to Tulip Manor. You did follow the route on the map. How was everything?"

"Elise?"

Turning her head to look at the blond youth beside her, Sally frowned slightly.

"The wedding hasn't even started yet, you shouldn't be... wait, you've become a vampire!?"

Looking at Iris, whose aura was clearly different from that of an ordinary person and whose face was pale, Sariel's expression suddenly darkened, and she suddenly understood the meaning of what Shi Bai had said earlier.

"Of course, what a powerful and perfect life form it is! I was so foolish before... Ah, the refreshing fragrance of fresh blood, the powerful energy flowing through my body, the long and immortal life, especially the heavenly taste of drinking the delicious blood from those beautiful young girls..."

With exaggerated and flamboyant gestures, Iris crossed her arms over her chest, a look of pure bliss on her face.

"No one can refuse this perfect and powerful life, and neither can I."

"You fell into depravity in just a few days."

Sally spoke coldly.

"Degeneration? No, no, no, this is called evolution, this is called sublimation, this is called greatness..."

Greedily gazing at Sally's angelic and perfect face, Iris's gaze then swept over the demon sisters, Phantom Moon and Dream Moon.

"Oh, such beautiful faces, why do you cover them with those filthy black robes? I think my heart has fallen in love once again. Beautiful ladies, may I ask you to dance?"

With one hand placed in front of her, Ellis gracefully bent down and extended her hand towards them.

"If you wish, I can guarantee your safety and that you will live a wonderful life from now on."

"Hmm, another old pervert."

The person, who had been leaning against a tree with their arms crossed and had been ignored by the other party the whole time, nodded with a look of deep agreement.

"Hmph, it seems you haven't quite grasped the predicament you're facing."

After waiting for a long time without receiving a response, the feigned elegance on her face vanished, and she straightened up and spoke coldly.

"Wizards? Perhaps you are indeed very powerful, after all, you have wiped out your clansmen at the church, but aren't you a little too confident in your strength?"

Ellis waved his hand with a cold laugh, and with his gesture, the corner that was rarely visited was instantly surrounded by the guests who came to attend the wedding.

Most of the guests were impeccably dressed, some even casually swirling a wine glass in their hands, but without exception, they were all vampires.

—This was originally a wedding for vampires.

As for the ordinary people mixed among the vampires, they have all been knocked out and locked up. When the banquet is held later, these ordinary humans will become delicious food for the vampires.

Among the onlookers was Viscount Cros, the head of the Tewailet family, who was also an important supporting character in the wedding. Beside him, Sophie, dressed in a pure white dress, followed quietly behind him, but there was a hint of confusion in the depths of her eyes.

Originally, Kuros was just watching the show with amusement. After all, ever since he obtained that blood from his daughter, the marriage alliance with the Tulip family today seemed less important. He couldn't wait to finish today's schedule and then focus all his energy on the more important matter.

He had only heard that a few wizards would come to cause trouble at the wedding and that they had already wiped out their fellow members from the Vatican, so he came out of curiosity to watch.

As for the fate of these wizards, he could guess it just by thinking about it. Perhaps they were very strong, but among the vampires who came to the wedding today, there were also many strong ones, not to mention that their side outnumbered the other side by dozens of times.

The male wizards would eventually become extra food at the banquet, while the female wizards, if they were beautiful, might stay and play with them a little longer, or be kept as mobile blood banks.

In the past, Kuros might have been actively involved in such matters, but now he seemed somewhat uninterested. However, when his gaze fell upon the black-haired man leisurely leaning against the tree with his arms crossed, his expression immediately changed slightly.

"is it him?"

He turned his head and quietly asked Sophie behind him.

"Yes, Dad."

Deep in her eyes remained a blank look, and Sophie nodded somewhat mechanically.

"No wonder, if it's such a powerful expert..."

A sudden surge of heat rose in his heart. After glancing around discreetly, Kuros quietly retreated.

................................................

"You going up or me going up?"

Looking at the vampires surrounding her, Huan Yue slightly stretched her shoulders and arms, then turned to Sariel beside her with interest and asked her a question. Sariel's expression had turned as cold as ice.

Even though her power has diminished slightly due to the fading of the world's mysteries, she is still a high-ranking demon who retains the power of an angel, so dealing with these vampires is still no problem for her.

"...You go ahead. I'm afraid I'll go too far and hurt those innocent humans. Leave the final judgment to me."

Sally replied, letting out a heavy sigh.

"Of course, it doesn't matter if you accidentally kill one or two. None of the vampires here are innocent."

"No problem. In that case, I'll take care of them. It's been a while since I've done anything, and I'm getting a little itchy..."

Following someone's example, she snapped her fingers, and snow-white wings quietly unfurled behind Huan Yue, while an angel's ring also took shape above her head.

"...Heavens, angels!?"

"She's an angel who descended to earth...!?"

"How is that possible? It's not like it's practically impossible now..."

"It's alright, there are so many of us here. Even if an angel descended from heaven, they would never be able to exert their full power in this world!"

"That's right, everyone attack together!! If we can capture this angel..."

As the Phantom Moon Angel form appeared, the surrounding vampires panicked and began to discuss amongst themselves. However, faced with their overwhelming numbers, they quickly reached a consensus and launched a joint attack on the Phantom Moon.

Sharp teeth extended from their mouths, and thin, translucent bat wings sprouted from their armpits. The once impeccably dressed guests were instantly transformed into hideous vampire monsters, while some vampires transformed into swarms of bats that swept across the sky.

It must be said that the attacks launched by these vampires were actually quite impressive. While light can suppress darkness, darkness can also suppress light.

If a true angel were under such an onslaught, she might indeed be defeated by these vampires who disregard the cost. However, Huan Yue is not a pure angel, but a special being who combines the power of angels and demons.

—In essence, she belongs to the higher demons.

The battle that took place in the manor lasted for less than ten minutes in total. During this time, Shi Bai and Meng Yue watched the battle while leisurely eating and drinking at the banquet. Although this was a banquet specifically for vampires, food that was ostensibly human still had to be served.
