Trading Death for Death [Bonus]

The red moon, which was supposed to end 20 minutes ago, finally started to fade. The sky returned to normal, and the forest regained its natural colors. Klaus, who had been thriving off the effects of the Blood Moon Transformation, began losing his power at the worst possible moment.

Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't have cared, but this time, he was in serious trouble. A sword had been stabbed through his chest, sticking out from his back—courtesy of the Blood Queen.

Klaus had intended to break her vine wall and overwhelm her with attacks while waiting for the Dragon to finish barbecuing the last of the Blood Princes. However, he had miscalculated. The wall wasn't meant for defense at all.

It was just a smokescreen for the real attack the Blood Queen had planned, and unfortunately, Klaus fell for it. He broke through the wall as expected, but he paid the price with a sword through his chest.
