At dusk, just before nightfall, an adventure party consisting of a beast tamer, a barbarian, and a bard gathered beneath the castle of the Demon City, preparing to face the upcoming challenge. This castle was ruled by the legendary and most powerful vampire, Count Dracula, who sought to dominate the entire world. XMAIA, the beast tamer, wielded a sturdy whip as her weapon and acted alongside her loyal pet PIRU. PIRU, a drake with mysterious powers, could sense the dark forces lurking deep within the castle. The barbarian named ugliness gripped a sharp black axe, bearing scars from numerous battles. Hailing from the distant north, he possessed a special immunity to the demonic powers. The bard sreda, with his loud quacking voice, inspired the team with beautiful music and poetry, his melodies and songs awakening dormant courage. He also hid in the distance, cunningly shooting cold arrows. When the clock struck midnight, the adventure party ventured into the depths of the vampire City. They traversed gloomy corridors, facing minions of the demon and evil traps. Huge spiderwebs adorned the walls, while torches flickered with dim light, illuminating their path forward. Throughout the long night, they engaged in a fierce battle with the Grim Reaper. The Grim Reaper swung a scythe, unleashing deadly attacks in the darkness. XMAIA counterattacked with her whip, weaving it into a net in an attempt to entangle the Grim Reaper's movements. Ugliness, the barbarian, ferociously swung his black axe, emitting deafening roars. His strength prevented the Grim Reaper from approaching easily. Bard sreda weakened the Grim Reaper's power with his enchanting music and ancient spells. In the end, the adventure party succeeded in defeating the vampire once, but before falling, the vampire grinned wickedly and said, "We will meet again soon," then transformed into smoke and vanished. They realized this was only the beginning. The vampire had the power to resurrect, so they needed to find a more effective way to destroy him completely. They knew victory could only be achieved through unity. After careful consideration, the trio devised a plan. In the library of the Demon City, they discovered an ancient scroll that revealed the secret ritual to seal the vampire. According to the scroll, they needed to find a unicorn horn and insert it into the heart of the Demon City. Only then could they successfully kill the vampire. Thus, the adventure party embarked on a perilous journey under the morning sun of the next day. Over three years of wilderness exploration, they encountered constant attacks from demons. From brutal vampires to cunning ghosts, they had to utilize their weapons and skills to defeat these evil beings. During their adventures, they gradually uncovered the vampire's resurrection ritual. The vampire required moonlight as a catalyst and an ancient altar for regeneration. This altar was located deep within the castle, guarded by countless demonic entities, including three muscular fallen angel guards. As they finally found the unicorn, the whole team fell into chaos. According to legend, only a pure and beautiful maiden could approach the unicorn and gain its trust and power. However, the team had no female members, so how could they get close to the unicorn? Before desperation overtook them, the old duck sreda used the scroll of youth to temporarily transform himself into a young state, becoming a young female duck. Successfully luring out the unicorn, just before the triumph, the scroll's magic wore off, turning sreda back into an old duck. The unicorn became disheartened, having been deceived under the influence of the musical curse. From then on, it lost its spirit and was forcibly brought along on the quest to vanquish the vampire, even being tasked with carrying the team's luggage and supplies without resistance. At the moment of capturing the unicorn successfully, the vampire sensed their plan and dispatched his most formidable minions to stop the adventure party. Enormous demon beasts, sly spirits, and ferocious werewolves appeared before them, attempting to prevent them from entering the castle. Eventually, they broke into the altar and witnessed Count Dracula's resurrection. He emanated dark energy, ready to conquer the world. The adventure party knew time was running out, and they had to act swiftly. XMAIA, the beast tamer, collaborated closely with her pet PIRU, using her whip to restrain the enemies. Ugliness, the barbarian, bravely confronted the demon beasts, wielding his black axe to fend off their attacks. Bard sreda unleashed the power of music and spells, preventing the spirits and werewolves from getting closer. However, just when they thought victory was within reach, the vampire's power erupted, breaking the seal. He transformed into a colossal demon and launched a deadly attack on the adventure party. Meanwhile, the vampire's power erupted, causing sreda's strings to break. The melody of "Strength in Unity" transformed into the "Melody of the Misadventurer." It was truly a series of unfortunate events. The adventure party faced an unprecedented crisis, but they did not give up. They worked closely together, persevering through the difficulties. At the same time, due to a twist of fate, the unicorn that once adored pure and beautiful maidens became enamored with the rude and strong barbarian. With its horn held high, it emitted not just pure white light but a rainbow-colored glow. With this radiant blessing, the curse of the music was broken, and the effect of the "Melody of the Misadventurer" was canceled. The team regained their strength. Finally, beast tamer XMAIA and bard sreda joined forces to defeat Count Dracula. You must be curious about what the barbarian was doing during this time. Well, he bravely carried the unicorn and used its horn as a lance, thrusting it into the chest of the gigantic demonized vampire. This time, he could no longer resurrect and was permanently sealed away. The Demon City returned under human control, and the world was saved. The adventure party celebrated in the joy of victory, becoming legendary heroes. Their courage and spirit of unity would forever be remembered by all. What people didn't know was that within the hero team, there was now a strange unicorn that had a liking for muscle-bound men. There was also a peculiar barbarian who enjoyed wielding the entire unicorn as a weapon instead of his black axe. Of course, this is another story for another time. v
