2024-04-10 04:00:12Florian’s naïve smile suddenly disappears, as he raises both his eyebrows, looking curious with something. But soon, he grins devilishly.
“So you know the purpose of my visit tonight?” he asks. “Does that mean you also told Aliana to leave?”
“I know full well about my situation,” says Howard. “I’ve followed everything your people wanted me to do, and I receive this consequence, all for her sake. Please, spare her life.”
“Well, I can promise you that,” says Florian, as he pulls a katana out of his palm. “But I can’t protect her from the others. And sorry, I can’t give you an easy death either.”
“I know,” says Howard.
With one swift slash, that teenager cuts Howard’s head. Despite that, the Prime Minister is still alive, and is now experiencing so much pain.

The two B-rank assassins look at each other with disbelieving faces. They find it hard to believe that an A-rank assassin like this man Declan is now looking so pathetic, something they never expected coming from him.“Did you see where he went?” asks the leader named Wesley.“I did, but…”“What is it?”“This is too much! I don’t think we can beat him even with the four of us,” says that man named Declan, glancing at his friends, seeming to doubt whether the two B-rank assassins would make their chance even better.“Why? He couldn’t even kill you. He must run away because of our coming,” says one of the B-rank assassins.“Which means, he is scared of us, right?” says the other one of the two B-rank assassins.“No,” says Declan. “He

After finishing with the journalists, he goes straight to a conference room on the second floor. There are already at least 20 high-ranking guardians waiting for him. Four of them are the assassins who failed to catch Dean last night.There is also a Senior A-rank guardian named Lana Lawrence, a beautiful woman who looks quite young but has long white hair like an old witch. She is the woman who healed the serious wound on Wesley's stomach last night.Yes, even as a sorcerer, she is quite skilled as a witch doctor, something that is very rare to find in this organization. The only other Sorcerer who can do such a feat is Mary, even though her healing technique is not as great as this woman.Amongst them, there are also Lina Ramirez and Simon Fessler. Yes, these two are the vampires who came to assassinate Samuel in his hotel room a while ago. They are new recruits and enlisted as only B-rank guardians.

Meanwhile, Mary, Sara and Daniela are currently at Dean's house on Starlight Street. They gather there, hoping Dean will come back home. The deaths of several officers from Medreisten a few days ago, as well as all the specters that have been released from the trapping jars in the basement, are valid proof that Dean had returned home a while ago, and maybe he will return again. They’ve lost their status as professional guardians. They are just normal students now, but they haven't gone back to Braham University so far. And now, their attention is focused on the news on TV, following Lorenzo Vasquez’s statement regarding Dean’s status. “Not that I don't sympathize with his loss,” grumbles Mary. “But he needs to stop this madness. He has no reason to kill all these people who had nothing to do with Monica’s death.” “I’m afraid he hasn’t realized that he has already been designated as an S-level terrorist by the government?” Daniela worries. “What are you expecting?” asks Sara with a

Swiftly, with one strong flap on his wings, he glides through the air stalking Dean from behind. Sharp and sturdy, some dark bituminous liquid solidifies in his right hand in the form of two long claws at the back of his knuckle.Like a falcon, he dives much faster than Dean’s motorbike. He is aware of the risk that Dean might be able to notice him through the bike’s mirror, so he comes from an angle outside that mirror’s view.One thing he doesn’t know, Dean has already sensed his evil intention and his unique dark aura as a vampire. But somehow, Dean keeps acting oblivious, and keeps his bike running straight at a steady pace like he is totally ignorant about his situation.“What’s your plan?” asks Namsqeem. “He is coming to you with something in his right hand.”“Let him get closer,” Dean replies. “I want you to ambush him right when he thinks he gets my head.”As he senses the man’s unique aura getting closer, Dean closes his eyes only for a moment. There he can picture in his hea

As that body keeps looking for the head, all the injuries in the head have also completely healed. However, it takes too much time for that body to find the head, before it is able to reattach that head back to its neck.Soon, he is back to normal, without any trace of wounds. But he looks so weak and exhausted after wasting too much mana and spirit. He can’t even use his bituminous wings to fly, and has to walk down the long road to go back to the town.“Lina! Can you hear me?” he mutters while holding the communication device in his left ear.“Hey, you bitch! Stop ignoring me! Don’t let them have that man! You better kill him rather than letting them have the key to Nimeza’s grave.”“Lina?! Answer me!”He tries to warn his friend, but sadly, he can’t reach her. After taking his phone out of his pocket to make a call, it turns out that the phone doesn’t get any signal at all. He is already too far on the Estuaria northern border, beyond the reach of the phone's provider.Annoyed, he

Even until the next few weeks, the situation in most places in The Democratic State of Yegristan, is still in chaos. Some of the vampires feel so relieved after finding out that they no longer have to drink human blood.But some of them are upset about losing their immortality. And their numbers are much greater, who are now venting their frustration and anger by causing chaos in society.But there are also some of them who do not realize what is happening, recklessly carrying out vandalizing, lootings and robberies, but later ultimately shot dead by the police.The current president is actually a half-blood from the Almas tribe, and he is still affiliated with the rulers of Estuaria.Instead of calming the chaos in his country, he is now in Medreisten, attending a meeting, which is also attended by representatives from two other kingdoms, Aflar and Ustobia.Even after Valery's death, these three countries are still under the influence of the Estuaria government, which is now under Sam

All the zombies in the forest, the dead vampires, Zulfik, and Harley, are now silent, swaying gently with blank faces.They stay like that, at least until all the specters within their bodies come out, and scatter in all directions. And instantly, all these lifeless bodies collapse.All the Manes in this forest are also getting out, seeming to be uncomfortable with the condition of the woods which have been covered in ice.They are interested in the stability in the area around Nimeza's core. The appearance of these Manes later catches Dean's attention.“I can't let them get near that stone.”Dean rushes over to the jet black stone, which is currently still in Valery's hand. Somehow, Valery’s hands are now slowly petrifying.This is what happens to people who lost their drive to live due to the effects of Nimeza's core, just like all the six previous kings of Yegristan who failed in inheriting that stone.Not only does he die, but every organ, cell and molecule in Valery’s body have b

Dean glances around to examine his situation. Suddenly, Namsqeem comes out of the soul shard which Dean keeps under his long blazer.“What is this? Why I feel so heavy?” asks Namsqeem.Dean doesn’t say a word. But at least, he looks so relieved knowing that the situation in Belestia Hill must have been secured.“These undead?” mumbles Namsqeem, seeming so familiar with Valery’s way of thinking. “He is going to use them to give him some space to cast his spells.”“I know,” Dean affirms. “Why don’t you deal with them, so I can handle that man?”Namsqeem makes his move. His sudden appearance has ruined all Valery’s plan. Now Valery needs to find another way to deal with Dean.But suddenly, he sees the arrival of so many missiles in the sky, coming from the east. They look so fast, because time passes with a different flow between inside the dome and outside it.All the missiles explode without being able to penetrate the dome. Yet, Valery still looks so upset, and Dean notices his sour f

Blood spurts from his mouth as his back hits the rocky cliff, where he gets stuck in the cracks caused by the impact.The crack then collapses, and he falls along with those rocks into a fairly large river below.A few moments later, Dean emerges from the river, floating to the edge, before he lands on the river bank, and immediately kneels down while coughing.“That was dangerous,” he mutters.His body releases thick haze, not just the steam of evaporating water from his soaked long blazer, but also the effects of his regeneration skill healing his wounds.There Dean realizes that his self-healing ability is much faster than usual. But still, that is no reason for him to feel safe.This regeneration won’t be able to raise him from death if one lethal attack kills him. Not to mention about the situation in Belestia Hill which he has been worrying about.“I can't be careless now. I have to end this as soon as possible.”Soon, he notices the emergence of fires in the forest. Even though

Zulfik's headless body is still floating while flapping his wings, as is Harley's headless body in his mechanical suit.Both of them are still alive and still able to control their bodies, at least until Valery pulls out the curse of immortality he once placed on them.Two blobs of bituminous liquid come out of Harley and Zulfik's bodies, before evaporating in the air. Only after that, the two headless bodies fall down as lifeless corpses.Apparently, these betrayals have disappointed Valery so much that he no longer wants to trust anyone.“I know you loved sacrificing your pawns to achieve your goals. But why?”Dean asks coldly, speaking in Nimeza language, and it’s effective to draw Valery’s interest.“Why you killed them now when you should be able to use them? Is this how you are going to create peace in the world?”To find Dean so fluent talking in that language, even with the native accent of ancient Zalfari people, Valery replies to him also in Nimeza language.“I don’t need the

Despite his indifferent attitude, believe me, he is really in a precarious condition right now.This is one of the side effects of Nimeza's core on him, which makes him always at peace, completely indifferent to life and death.One of the negative effects is that he has not been taking his fight seriously, which ultimately leads to his current situation.The only thing now which makes him think seriously about his fate is because of the safety of his wife and kid.But on the good side, he can still think calmly despite his situation, taking his time amidst the clouds, as if relaxing on a soft mattress.“Okaay, why don't I try to dig up a little of the memories of those old men?”He closes his eyes, trying to remember, as if what the four ancient apparitions had experienced in the past is his own experience.Unfortunately, they’d never been in a condition like this, and there is not the slightest memory where they had a technique which allowed them to fly.Until then…“Let's try the th

That’s the message given by Valery. And Antonin knows so well how important this warning is. That’s why he only tries to waste time, with so much alertness, without any intention to get close to Dean.He swings the two weapons from a distance, and again releases many ethereal weapons in all directions.These ethereal weapons linger around for a few minutes, spinning and floating randomly around Antonin, like satellites orbiting a planet.“What is he thinking? Is he going to attack me or not?”The movement of those ethereal weapons makes Dean a little confused, because they look more like protection instead of an offensive technique.But then, the ethereal weapons orbiting on the outermost side are getting further away from Antonin. Even though they are still circling around Antonin, they are starting to head towards Dean in their orbits.Dean steps away to avoid it, and then some of the ethereal weapons disappear into the thin air. Even so, Antonin still continues to swing his gryphon

After such a shocking surprise attack, which has destroyed the military ranks complete with their tanks and trucks, the situation suddenly becomes so quiet.Only the sound of moans of pain can be heard, accompanied by the sound of flames shooting out from the burning oil tanks of several trucks.And there is a man in a black long blazer, with most of his head wrapped in a cloth, standing in the middle of the chaos.“Go back to your homes!” he exclaims in a loud voice. “This is the final warning. You will not get anything good even if you win this war. It doesn't mean there will be a chance for you to win it. If you leave now, I’ll guarantee your safety from my wrath.”His voice is so loud, as if he is speaking with a megaphone. It even reaches the ears of a few soldiers in a tank more than 50 meters away.“Who is this guy?”“Who cares? Let’s see if he still can say a word after eating this one!”Soon, the tank open fires, shooting one HEAT (High Explosive Anti-tank) projectile, which

Valery can clearly feel her strong presence, but he is still in the state of confusion at the moment. After all, the last time he met Zamira was already more than two thousand years ago.He just assumes this strong presence is just one of the high-skilled Defteros taking part in the battle in Hullback Town.Until then, one of his pawns, an ancient specter named Shaheen, comes to him to informs about something.“Master! I just felt the present of Namsqeem in Belestia Hill,” he says.“Namsqeem?” Valery mutters curiously, feeling quite familiar with the name.“It’s Cresta’s lovely pet,” Shaheen informs.“Oh, that little one,” Valery sneers.“I don’t think you can call him that way now,” Shaheen reprimands. “It’s been two thousand years already. And there’s another strong spirit creature with him at moment. I’m not so sure if he is a specter or a mane. But there’s something strange with his form. It’s similar to what Cresta did to Namsqeem in the past.”Valery's facial expressions change.
