Rene was stunned as he realized the situation!
He had been wounded before, and he understood the capabilities of Vampire regeneration. Even severe injuries could be repaired as long as sufficient Blood Energy remained in the body. Yet Deric's wounds were not healing. The flames had left behind blackened flesh that continued to smolder, while his Blood Energy flickered weakly beneath his skin.
Rene suddenly understood.
"Fire Element!"
Batsaikhan rose to his feet with the metallic cylinder still glowing in his hand.
"Correct. This little artifact was designed for dealing with creatures like you…"
Rene stared at him in disbelief.
Fire Element attacks were dangerous to Vampires, but this was no ordinary flame. The artifact had been specifically crafted to disrupt the energy sustaining their bodies. Even a Vampire with powerful regeneration would struggle to recover from injuries inflicted by such a weapon.
And the man standing before him had activated it without hesitation.
