“Die!” Cranston swung his arm with the intent to claw through the orc’s head.Shadow moved his head back and dodged the attack before grabbing Cranston’s wrist, thereby startling him because Cranston’s arm was moving at a pretty high speed.Shadow pressed his fingers into the forearm at specific spots, sending jolts of shock into Cranston’s brain, making him shake as if he was having a seizure. He then yanked his arm viciously.Cranston’s arm got torn off at the shoulder, and blood sprayed out to the side.Cranston didn’t scream in pain. He bore it and swung his left leg this time, looking to kick Shadow’s head off his torso.Shadow caught the ankle and stopped the kick like it was nothing. Cranston looked baffled for a second. He tried to pull his leg back, but it didn’t come. Shadow squeezed it with brute strength and crushed the ankle bone, this time making Cranston cringe in pain.“That’s enough!” Denise flew into the scene like the wind and kicked her heel down at Shadow’s head.
Every minute Denise, Cranston, and Zakaria waited felt like a second. It wasn’t that they were bored, but they were all anxious as they were going to meet their king.“Ma’am, is it true that our king is immortal?” Zakaria asked, sounding extremely curious.“I’m not sure, but from what I heard, he can not only regenerate his limbs but he can also turn his age back if he wants,” Denise said. “Even if you put him in a blender and turn him into a pulp, he’ll still self-assemble and be reborn.”“Eh?” Zakaria was stunned.“How are we going to impress such a man?” Cranston looked a little worried. “If we don’t impress him, what will he do to us?” He and Zakaria may be powerful, but compared to the vampire knights, they were still inferior in terms of fighting skills.“Don’t worry too much. I have prepared ten different plans on how to take control over humanity while minimizing our losses as much as possible,” Denise said. “We’ll, not just me, but the ten dragons together did it.”“Can you t
Emmanuel was holding Mina’s sword, and Edward cane thrusting his hand at her back.It seemed like a sure victory for the vampires, but Mina abandoned the sword and moved out of the way.Still, her back had received a skin-deep cut. No blood came out of her wound, though.“Now I’m sure that you are definitely not an orc,” Edward said and grinned before looking at Emmanuel. “You should go and kick the ass of the one in the lab. I and Oliver are more than enough for this short wolf.”“Then I’ll leave this one to you two,” Emmanuel said and threw the short sword to Oliver before entering the lab in haste.“You’re going to die by your own sword,” Oliver said empthatically. He could feel that this green orc was not as strong as the one he met in the lab, so he was confident of taking this one, especially because Edward was also with him.Mina, however, smiled and cracked her knuckles. “I’m not even 30% strong of what I used to be in my prime, but I have the invaluable experience on my side.
Goliath and Cane were in the Necro Park, which was an entertainment spot for young vampires as they would get to pick and choose from the variety of human slaves they could practice their skills upon.It was a popular place, always thriving with many vampires, but currently, everyone was running away in different directions as Cane and Goliath were fighting a green orcs and also a person in a black cloak.Most onlookers couldn’t believe what they were seeing. How could a green orc be able to fight on par with a vampire knight?Cane was fast. Though not as fast as Goliath, he was still very much faster compared to the tenth-ranked vampire knight. However, Cane still couldn’t land a single punch on Dahlia, and it infuriated him to no end.“How are you doing this?” Cane barked. “How come I can’t even touch you? It’s as if you’re able to tell how I’m going to attack…”“You’re right in a way,” Dahlia kept dodging his attacks and briefly looked toward Goliath who was having a close fight wi
Goliath didn’t even need to use his life-leeching powers against the mysterious female vampire because he could tell that she was weaker than him.However, she was very good when it comes to using the movement skill Vapor Walk. This skill was best used by the blood-sucking vampires, where they would dope up their own blood, which allowed them to travel at extreme speeds, leaving nothing but fleeting vaporous traces.This skill was learned only by specific vampires even in the moonless kingdom, and the only knight who learned this skill was the second-ranked knight, Molly Swan.However, there was a clear distinction between Molly’s usage and this female vampire’s usage. Molly predominantly used that skill to attack and overwhelm the opponent, but this woman was doing the opposite.So, Goliath was having a hard time to properly land a solid hit. Nevertheless, he was still fast enough to keep her on the defense.“I don’t know who taught you Vapor Walk, but I can definitely tell that you d
Akira’s needle attack woke Goliath up at once. Even though he could see and feel everything, he couldn’t move. It wasn’t that his body was frozen, but it was just under the control of Akira now.“You…” Goliath looked shocked. He couldn’t even speak unless Akira allowed him to. “This is like the Brain Dominating Art of the purebloods. How do you know this art? You’re definitely not a pureblood.”“The one who turned me against my will has taught me a few things,” Akira replied because she wanted Dahlia to know. “Now, if you answer my questions, I’ll leave you with your life intact.”Goliath wanted to send a signal outside, but he couldn’t. Even his thought process couldn’t go against Akira’s will now. He gritted his teeth. “Ask away. As long as you promise not to kill me, I’ll answer your questions.”Akira nodded and looked at Dahlia. “You ask first. I’ll ask him at the back end.”Dahlia was pleasantly surprised. “Thank you.” She then asked Goliath without any reservations. “Can you tak
In the backyard of a particular house, an old vampire maid with a long white braid was thrashing the goblins with her braid as they were doing a poor job of wetting the soil with blood and putting the blood worms into the earth.Blood worms ate the dead and decayed matter and enriched the soil into bringing out the best out of the trees and even giving a bloody flavor to the fruits and leafy greens.A one-eyed goblin was begging the maid by groveling behind her, “Mistress, please give me three days leave. My wife would have given birth by now. I need to go home and see her and my newborn child. I will come back in three days even if the rivers run dry.”The maid had already told her to keep working, but he wasn’t listening to her. “Do you see others asking for special permission?” she growled. “You are only given one week every year. That’s all. If you need your job, you fall in line. If you don’t want it, you can leave anytime you want.”The goblin, however, began crying because he k
Rye’s feet stopped, and she glanced over her shoulder. “Who’s Sasha?”“His wife,” Bob replied. “He brought her while coming back from the outside world. In fact, he’s the one who also brought the sovereign's wife here, so he’s one of the main reasons why the Sovereign is locked up in this kingdom.”Rye’s blood picked up speed pretty fast. “He did what?” she clenched her fist. The wind began to swirl around her, and the pressure grew so strong, the thick metal cages bent away from her as if the space itself was distorting around her.Most of the prisoners that were talking badly about Rye were blown back into the walls and got knocked out of their senses. Those that were still standing had utterly baffled looks playing on their visages, having no clue what just happened. And they dared not utter another word; good or bad.Bob looked particularly stunned. (Did she just release her spiritual power? Just an angry thought released so much energy out of her. I knew she was strong, but not t
