Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Blood vs Gravity and Ice

The world was watching.

Across giant holo-screens, floating panels, and VR streams, billions of eyes were glued to the Zenith Academy Entrance Exam broadcast — the biggest event of the decade.

Commentators screamed excitedly as live footage streamed from the Deserted Isle Arena, where candidates fought, bled, and battled for a spot in the prestigious academy.

“Ladies and gentlemen! We are witnessing history!”

“A battle between legends in the making! Humans versus Vampires, Princess versus Princess — and of course, the radiant Seraphina Starlight!”

“Just look at this carnage! It’s absolute chaos down there!”

The screen split into multiple panels: one showing a massive battle between humans and vampires, another focusing on three dazzling figures locked in deadly combat — Lilith Noctis Bloodrose, Charlotte Evans Avaloria, and Seraphina Starlight.

The crowd roared.

—

On the western side of the Deserted Isle, a full-scale war raged between human candidates and vampire candidates.

Though the vampires were outnumbered nearly two-to-one, they fought with ruthless efficiency, feral speed, and bone-snapping strength.

Their regeneration abilities allowed them to shrug off wounds that would have crippled a human.

A human boy slashed his sword across a vampire’s chest—

—Only for the gash to close before his eyes.

The vampire smirked, grabbed the boy’s arm, and hurled him like a ragdoll into a boulder.

“You can wound them— you cannot kill them easily! Their can use others blood to heal their wounds !” one candidate shouted.

“Light magic! Use Light magic! It’s their weakness!” another screamed.

Across the battlefield, human mages were adapting fast.

Brilliant lances of light shot across the battlefield, piercing vampire shields and sizzling against undead flesh.

Some humans formed holy barriers, forcing vampires back with bursts of radiant energy.

A red-haired human mage named Lia philip raised her staff, chanting a spell, before unleashing a rain of spears made of pure sunlight.

Several vampires were impaled mid-dash, their bodies exploding into shimmering light as they were teleported out.

But the vampires weren’t helpless.

Another human candidate shouted “Watch out for their counterattack! They’re adapting too!”

A Brown-haired vampire girl darted between spells, her movements too fast for the eye to track.

She closed in on a human warrior and, with a single crushing kick, shattered his shield and sent him flying.

Blood manipulation techniques flourished.

Bloody spears formed from spilled blood, skewering mages from behind.

Blood tendrils lashed out, ensnaring legs, yanking humans into deadly traps.

She was isadora vale Lilith’s maid

A vampire scratched a human’s arm with his nails— and moments later, the human collapsed, his movements paralyzed from the blood infection.

The battlefield was a kaleidoscope of chaos.

Blades flashing,

Blood sizzling against light,

Cries of pain and victory echoing across the broken island.

Every time a candidate was eliminated, their body exploded into sparkling light particles, and they were teleported safely back to the academy’s medical zone.

Still, neither side gave an inch.

The humans fought ferociously, some of them weaving light and wind magic together for devastating combo attacks.

Vampires countered with unholy regeneration, brute strength, and blood manipulation.

The crowd gasped as a particularly brutal clash showed a human knight impaling a vampire —

—Only for the vampire to grab the sword, snap it off, and ram the broken blade into the knight’s shoulder as both got eliminated!

—

Meanwhile, away from the main battlefield, a smaller, even deadlier duel unfolded.

Lilith Noctis Bloodrose stood tall, her black blade gleaming, Raven black hair fluttering in the cold wind. Her smile was sharp and savage, her eyes glowing a deep bloody red.

Facing her —

Charlotte Evans Avaloria, sword already wreathed in swirling gravitational energy.

Seraphina Starlight, calm and collected, the very air around her dropping below freezing.

Without a word, they moved.

The atmosphere crackled with tension.

Without a signal, all three moved at once.

Lilith dashed forward, her figure blurring like a ghost.

Her blade moved in a dancing arc aimed at Charlotte’s side.

Charlotte intercepted the blow with her gravity-infused sword — the impact cracked the ground under her feet.

“You’re Stronger than you look, princess,” Lilith cackled, her blood-red eyes gleaming.

Charlotte responded with a smirk, twisting her blade to unleash a Black Hole Strike.

A dense gravitational point exploded from her sword, pulling Lilith toward it violently.

But Lilith just laughed —

—with a short teleportation burst, she vanished mid-air, reappearing behind Seraphina.

Seraphina, calm as a frozen lake, wove a wall of crystalline ice spikes in Lilith’s path, forcing her to halt.

“You won’t catch me that easily, bloodsucker,” Seraphina said sweetly, her voice like a winter breeze.

Lilith retaliated, slicing her palm mid-dash.

Blood sprayed outward — and instantly, she shaped it into blood spears, sending them flying at both opponents.

Charlotte blocked with a wind barrier while Seraphina countered by freezing the blood mid-air, shattering it into harmless snow.

The battle became a whirlwind of attacks and counters.

Lilith used the blood spilled across the battlefield to forge puppets — small, feral monsters that lunged at her foes.

Charlotte unleashed gravitational slashes, making the battlefield twist and turn unpredictably.

Seraphina froze the moisture in the air itself, summoning deadly ice blooms that detonated like grenades.

Lilith fought like a berserker, her enhanced strength allowing her to clash head-on against Charlotte’s gravitational pressure.

Bone-shattering kicks and blindingly fast dashes made it impossible to predict her movements with her blade attacks.

And when she was wounded —

—a deep slash across her thigh from Charlotte —

—her high-speed regeneration kicked in, closing the wound almost instantly, leaving only a faint scar.

“Tch…she’s enjoying this,” Charlotte muttered, sweat beading her brow.

“She’s dangerous,” Seraphina agreed, frost forming at her fingertips.

Both Seraphina and Charlotte were shocked they knew Lilith was strong that’s why Charlotte also came prepared.

But even through it was two against one they still couldn’t get the upper hand on the vampire princess.

They were confident that two of them against one of her will be a clean win but they couldn’t be anymore wrong .

Lilith was strong more than they had calculated.

—

The world watched, breathless.

“Incredible! Lilith Noctis Bloodrose is holding off two top-tier candidates at once!”

“And she’s smiling like it’s a game! Is she a monster or what?!”

—

Blood, Ice, and Gravity Collided

Lilith didn’t slow down.

She combined her fire affinity, sending flaming arcs of burning blood at her enemies — a devastating fusion of blood and flame that even Seraphina struggled to understand and freeze completely.

Charlotte responded by launching herself forward with gravity magic, each of her swings pulling Lilith’s body slightly out of balance, trying to set her up for Seraphina’s finishing moves.

Seraphina, calm and merciless, unleashed an ice storm, freezing the very air and creating icy spikes on the ground to limit Lilith’s movement.

Still, Lilith dodged, weaved, counterattacked — even as blood dripped from her arms and face, she fought with savage joy.

Every moment was a flurry of swords clashing with blood blades,

Gravity fields pulling bodies mid-strike,

Ice traps detonating in glittering sprays.

For every blow she took, Lilith answered with three of her own.

Yet even she couldn’t last forever.

Breathing hard, wounds multiplying, Lilith began to slow.

Her mana reserves dipped lower with every blood construct, every teleportation dash, every fiery strike.

Charlotte and Seraphina, equally battered, took advantage.

Charlotte stabbed forward with a gravity-drilling thrust, forcing Lilith to block —

—and Seraphina sent a spike of frozen air aimed at Lilith’s blind spot.

Lilith barely managed to twist her body, avoiding a lethal blow, but the force of the combined attacks threw her back, skidding across the cracked ground.

The three girls stood panting, bloodied and frostbitten.

For a heartbeat, none moved.

Then —

—all three straightened, steadying their weapons, ready to clash again.

But before they could move, a new voice cut through the air:

“MY LADY!”

They all heard a voice ragged and breathless.

“SOM…. hufff huff SOMEONE HAS ELIMINATED THE REMAINING TWO GROUPS OF CAPTURED CANDIDATES!”

Everyone froze.

The voice belonged to Isadora Vale, Lilith’s maid.

Lilith’s crimson eyes widened.

Charlotte and Seraphina turned sharply toward the direction where the captured candidates had been held.

There was… nothing.

No bodies.

No captives.

Only empty, broken ground.

“Impossible,” Seraphina muttered. “They were guarded! They couldn’t just disappear!”

“Even with the battle chaos…eliminating them was suicidal,” Charlotte said grimly. “It would need someone incredibly skilled to bypass us unnoticed.”

Lilith narrowed her eyes.

Her heart thudded once.

“Isa ! Did you see anything?!” she barked.

Isadora, panting heavily, shook her head.

“I only caught a glimpse… A silver blur… moving too fast across the battlefield. I saw… strands of silver hair… and a pair of blue eyes only for a moment…”

The battlefield fell silent.

The crowd watching the broadcast collectively held their breath even though they could not hear what they were saying.

Then—

Lilith, Charlotte, and Seraphina all burst out laughing.

A dark, dangerous, spine-tingling laughter that echoed across the island, sending shivers even into the hearts of spectators.

“Heh… that good looking insect,” Lilith whispered, her fangs gleaming.

Even Isadora recoiled slightly, her instincts screaming at the danger in the air.

The camera zoomed in on the three princesses, their eyes shining with deadly excitement.

Whoever had pulled this off…

…was not just skilled.

They were declaring war.

And now they were gonna get hunted not just by one but three crazy people.
