Chapter 264: 261. A real shadow knight
"What the...?" Even Victor, who stayed behind the others, was shocked that the fire was repelled just like that, and then Dexter looked at Collins, who nodded.
Collins moved towards the knight, wielding his sword in his hand, which had its symbols glowing brightly.
He instantly reached in front of the knight in a split second, and the knight used its shield to defend itself, causing a small ripple in the air as they collided.
Collins was shocked as the knight was only pushed back a little.
He frowned as he dodged a sword cut coming for his head and jumped back.
He glanced at the sword in his hand in confusion, as he didn't understand what was happening.
The knight actually withstood his attack head-on, and he wasn't even holding back.
'It took my attack head-on. Does that mean it's a fourth class as well?' Collins thought to himself, and then he ran forward again with the sword in his hand.
The knight also came forward, and the two of them began to fight. The knight was fast, despite holding the shield.
They seemed to be equal in strength, and then Jude appeared behind it, making the ground become slippery.
The knight managed to turn around as Jude stabbed his trident into the ground, and a sword slashed his chest open.
Jude was surprised at what just happened and then looked down at his chest to see blood dripping from it.
The sword didn't look like any normal sword, unlike the ones the shadows used. It was made of a dark silver metal which emitted a dark and shadowy aura.
The knight put the sword in front of itself and stayed in a stance, and then Dexter arrived. The flames covering his body melted the ice beneath his feet, and his spear was ready to cleave off the head of this knight.
He ran forward with full speed before stopping.
'First art of the Sun God. 10 Death Waves.'
He began to spin his spear, which was coated in golden flames, and then the flying arcs of thin blade flames went towards the knight. Dexter continued doing all the waves until he reached 10 and he panted.
To his surprise, the knight released a vertical attack of its own which tore into the ground as it came towards him, knocking the other arcs going towards it.
Dexter smiled as he saw this and looked at his spirit energy.
[Spirit energy: 9670/30700]
[Stamina: 2303/7490]
Dexter gritted his teeth as he hadn't had much time to recover all of his spirit energy.
'Second art of the Sun God, Mystical Thrust.'
He held his spear in a stance behind him and looked at the knight in the distance and the arc of shadow coming. Then he thrust forward with his spear, making a torrent of flames shoot forward, causing a spear to form out of it. The spear crashed with the arc sent by the knight, the two attacks destroying each other.
Collins was done with this, and his eyes turned silver in color. A white aura surrounded him. The pressure increased around the knight, and then he walked towards it.
The ground seemed to crack up with every step he took as he approached the knight.
With a single punch, the shield of the knight scattered, and then lined appeared on the knight as its body was slashed three times after the shield dispersed. The knight was then split into three parts.
Seeing the parts coming together again, Collins grabbed the upper part, which had an arm attached to it.
The body was slashed slantingly to the left side, leaving only one arm on that side. He stabbed the head of the body, and then a golden beam of light passed through the knight, making the rest of the pieces of its body disperse into black mist.

Collins' eyes returned to normal, and his aura normalized, along with the pressure in the air dissipating.
Collins finally calmed down, and the others walked forward.
No one had the courage to face the knight as they weren't the strongest out of the bunch. If the shadow knight could take on a vampire knight and deflect an attack from a count...
Dexter's mother ran forward, blurring as she moved through the members and got to Jude, who had already stopped bleeding from the slash he received.
She looked at the wound to see that it was already healing up, and she let out a breath of relief as she saw that the wound was closing up.
"I didn't think it would be different from the rest," Jude said with a sigh. Then he looked at where the knight guarded, to see a wide rose field with a ton of vampires gathering there and a red light beaming from ahead of them.
They all entered the vast garden, and then Dexter looked to the side to see exits of the labyrinths surrounding the entire garden.
There were red roses filling the entire place, and the flower petals on the ground surfaces were red as well.
Dexter looked to the source of the red light that shot into the sky and saw a man who sat on a throne. The man was wearing a black suit with a red tie and a black shirt.
On his head sat a white hat which was a good fit for his shoes. Behind him was a woman dressed in a maid outfit, and there were three other vampires who stood behind the throne.
The light suddenly vanished. That was when Dexter noticed that the counts were coming out of the labyrinths together.
*"Vampire King Lucian Bloodborn... He's just like the final boss. He looks oddly familiar..."* Dexter pondered as he saw the striking white hair and red eyes.
The man had an otherworldly presence, as his skin was white and pale, flawless, and his red eyes were the deepest shade of red Dexter had ever seen before.
'I remember now. I met him on a bridge while going to meet Hannah... The one Henry warned me about. I wonder if he's the one from the visions.'
