「Please stop, Birkyne-sama! What is the – Gehoh!」(Vampire)

「HYIIIIIH! Birkyne-sama has gone mad! Run away, run awaaaay!」(Vampire)

「NOOOOOOO!」(Vampire)

Birkyne went into a frenzy with disheveled hair, bloodshot eyes and a foaming mouth.

His appearance was no longer that of a young nobleman or even that of an angry beast, but that of a broken madman.

He swung his fist wildly, destroying a pillar that had barely avoided destruction up until now, and then stopped, breathing heavily with his shoulders heaving.

「Haah… haah… fuuh.」(Birkyne)

He looked up into the sky to see the beautiful, blue-white glow of the moon and the sparkling stars that accompanied it.

As Birkyne threw away the「thing」… the head of the Noble-born Vampire, which was already in a poor enough state to make it impossible to tell whether it was even a man or a woman, he calmly spoke to Ternecia and Gubamon as if nothing had happened.

「So that brings up the question of what we will do next, Ternecia. Do you have any ideas?」(Birkyne)

He took a silk handkerchief from his breast pocket, cleaned his mouth and hands with it and quickly adjusted his hair with his fingers.
「Ah, you’re back. It didn’t last very long this time, did it?」(Ternecia)

「The last time, you were in that state for days. I was considering whether Ternecia and I needed to stop you.」(Gubamon)

「Fufu, my apologies.」(Birkyne)

Birkyne had completely reverted to his usual self, but his surroundings were in a pitiful state.

The meeting chamber that previously looked as if it were from inside the large mansion of a nobleman had now turned into a mountain of rubble, other than two circular areas roughly a meter wide around Gubamon and Ternecia.

Blood and severed limbs sprawled over the rubble. Heads and fragments of heads littered the ground.

Half of the Noble-born Vampires and the majority of the Subordinate Vampires had been turned into silent corpses.

「Well, it’s fine. I thought that this would happen, so I didn’t bring my servants to today’s meeting other than some Subordinate Vampires to fill the numbers.」(Ternecia)

「Kakaka, well done! But all of my Noble-born Vampires were present today!」(Gubamon)

「I have done a terrible thing. How many of them did I crush?」(Birkyne)

「Don’t worry, don’t worry! I was thinking of cutting down those that were below average so that I do not end up with another individual like Sercrent. You have merely made the selection for me by cutting down those who could not survive your temper!」(Gubamon)
