In front of the Witch Demon Tower, where McGwire, the final boss of this secret realm, resided,


    Lis and Ang were making their final preparations, about to confront this being whose age was unknown.


    Suddenly, Lis remembered something and asked the little bat perched on his head,


    "Lord Ang, how long have you been in this tomb?"


    "I don’t know, I’ve been inside as long as I can remember; I’ve wandered through the entire tomb, which was boring, soter I just slept there."


    Actually, Lis found it odd that Ang, as a vampire, would have inherited memories.


    This was something Ang had identally mentioned during their chat.


    Shouldn’t this be exclusive to the Dragon n?


    Never mind, maybe Ang’s bloodline was special, not just any ordinary existence; otherwise, not only she would have ascended to be a Gold Level boss in the entire Ghost Mansion.


    Thinking of this, Lis turned to look behind him.


    Following him and Ang were swathes of dark, shadowy figures, each emitting a terrifying aura.


    These were all the monsters from the entire Ghost Mansion, all transformed into vampires and Blood Servants.


    The two high-level Blood Servants guarding the gates were among them, their pale faces and blood-red eyes perfectly epitomizing the stereotypical image of vampires.


    Lis had merely asked Ang before setting out if it was possible to control these monsters, as none of them had attacked him or Ang.


    Ang stated, "Isn’t that an easy thing to do?"


    As a High-level Vampire, Ang naturally couldmand these unintelligent monsters, and Ang didn’t even consider these disgusting, dusky creatures as her kin.


    Lis then had Ang bring along all the monsters of the Ghost Mansion, even if they just blocked one skill in the battle against McGwire.


    The little bat readily agreed, turning into the sight before them.


    Perhaps the real world was still a bit different from the game, Lis couldn’t remember anyone mentioning such a strategy in his past life.


    It really felt good, charging directly with a group of creatures that should be enemies in the secret realm.


    On their way to the Witch Demon Tower, even when encountering wandering monsters, there was no need to avoid them from afar as before; the vampires behind him would swarm up and tear those monsters to shreds.


    Had it not been for time conservation, Lis would even have wanted to go back to the Dark Hall to clear out the Headless Knights there.


    But better to press on; he wondered how Ya’er and Arsen were doing now.


    With this thought in mind, Lis took a deep breath, ready to enter the middle of the Witch Demon Tower.


    "Lord Ang, where does McGwire usually stay?"


    Lis asked, since in his past life after defeating the Headless Knight and Ang, McGwire would wake up and present himself, eliminating the need for Lis to search for him.


    The little bat on Lis’s head scratched its head; to tell the truth, it had only been there once and didn’t remember very clearly.


    n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    "I think it’s in the room at the very top. I could wander anywhere else in the tower without anyone caring, but as soon as I entered that room, the Witch Demon would appear."


    Is that so? Because McGwire’s Life Protection Box was in that room, that’s why Ang wasn’t allowed in.


    "Then let’s go in; be careful, Ang, and let those guys at the back go in first."


    Lis had Ang direct the vampire foot soldiers to split into two groups: one to scout ahead and the other to surround and protect Lis and Ang.


    "Just like the n, Lord Ang, you lead these monsters to draw McGwire out of that room; it would be best to draw him down to the first floor while I go in and destroy McGwire’s Life Protection Box."


    Ang nodded. If it was just about entangling McGwire, she was quite confident in herself.


    Fortunately, as the Big BOSS, McGwire did not have the ability to summon minions, and he was the only monster in the entire Witch Demon Tower, so there was no need to worry about other unforeseen variables.


    After making all the preparations, Lis took a deep breath to adjust his mindset, and then proceeded toward the Witch Demon Tower with Ang.


    Could it be said this was a ce McGwire had prepared for himself after transforming into a witch demon?


    The entire Witch Demon Tower was engraved with densely packed Magic Array Runes, which had been operating normally for hundreds of years, maintaining the cleanliness and tidiness of the Witch Demon Tower, unlike other monsterirs which appeared old and dusty.


    It was a consistently dark-style architecture, except the main door of the Witch Demon Tower was open outwards and was not closed, showing signs of being attacked.


    Ang whispered:


    "I opened itst time I came here, it took quite a bit of effort."


    Lis wanted to give Ang a thumbs up, as this saved a lot of trouble.


    Hemanded the vampire cannon fodder to enter the Wizard Tower first, watching as nothing unusual happened, probably because Ang had already cleared all the magic traps set upst time.


    Walking into the main gate of the Wizard Tower, what caught their eyes were the stark ck hall and the stairs leading upwards, with novish or special decorations.


    It seemed that McGwire thought that for a witch demon, enjoyment was meaningless.


    As for equipment for experiments, there would be time to procure them after sessfully transforming into a witch demon.


    Lis, having no opportunity to loot, didn’t mind and took out his Magic Wand to cast various Beneficial and Protection Magic on himself and Ang.


    Ang curiously lifted her head to watch the spells of Spirit Light, indeed feeling her abilities had improved, although not by arge margin.


    Is this the magic from his memories, so beautiful! Much better-looking than his Blood Magic.


    The determination to go outside grew even stronger, and Ang also casually cast Beneficial Magic on herself and Lis.

    -----------------


    Is this the power of a Gold-Level Vampire? Indeed strong!


    These skills, which former yers found annoying to deal with, were now quite appealing to Lis.


    The feeling of being full of power was indeed pleasant, as Lis and Ang continued toward the upper levels of the Witch Demon Tower together.


    The entire Witch Demon Tower had a total of five levels, with the topmost level being the ce where McGwire underwent his witch demon transformation and where his Life Protection Box was located.


    A dark crowd reached the top floor, and Lis, standing from afar with Ang, directed the cannon fodder to open the door.


    Cast in unknown metal, the ck door was embedded in the wall and was not locked. A low-level mob struggled to push the door open.


    Suddenly, his figure seemed to be struck violently by something and quickly collided with a nearby wall.


    A cold whirlwind blew past, and a figure in a ck Mage Robe appeared in front of Lis and Ang.


    McGwire!
