Bob took Rye and Benjamin to the oldest base of the vampire kingdom. This was where the experiments that began the experiments were held. This base was no longer in use. It was called the Commander’s Base.It was full of items and gadgets from all ages and professions. There were pianos, soccer balls, nut-grinding machines, televisions, cellphones, towers and such things in miniature sizes.“What is this place for?” Rye was about to put her finger on the small piano, but the piano started playing before she even touched it. “What the hell?” she immediately stepped back. Her eyes glowed red, and she was able to see black energy coming out of the piano. Not just the piano, but every item in that base. “All these objects are possessed by dark spirits.”“You’re right,” Bob said, feeling the chill of the base as the weather was absurdly cold inside, even though there was no ice in sight. “When the television was invented, it was modified in this base by the commander, who then used it to p
Even though Rye was surprised by Jezz Bell’s attack, she was able to grab her hand before it reached her heart. “What do you think you’re doing?”“What else?” Jezz Bell’s nails grew and pierced Rye’s chest, making her bleed from the mouth.Benjamin swiped his hand at Jezz Bell, forcing her to jump back, but she couldn’t because Rye was still holding onto her hand. As a result, Benjamin’s hand grabbed Jezz Bell’s face.“Yes, violate me like this,” Jezz Bell began to moan. “You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting to be handled by you like this.”Her words creeped Rye out. She let go of Jezz Bell’s hand and kicked her in the diaphragm, sending her back by many steps.“Who’s she exactly?” Rye asked Bob as her chest wound began to heal fast.“She’s the Zero Knight, the one who’s stronger than all the other vampire knights,” Bob answered. “Don’t think she’s just a little stronger than other knights because she’s not. She’s far stronger than them. The zero knight has been experimented on
Everything within a ten mile radius was reduced to dust from Jezz Bell’s attack; everything except three souls.Bob’s head was still intact because Benjamin had shielded him. Jezz Bell looked at Benjamin who had formed a translucent shield with his palm and blocked the shockwave from harming him.“As expected of the Sovereign,” Jezz Bell licked her lips. “Even though you’re so weakened, you still blocked one of my awakened attacks. Now I see why you are called the strongest being on earth.”Benjamin’s arm was trembling. He couldn’t maintain the shield for long, and it dissipated. If Jezz Bell were to launch a similar attack, aimed directly at him, he wasn’t sure if he would be able to block it right now. And he could see that Jezz Bell had her eyes on him and was not even blinking. Her eyes were burning with tangible lust. “You should focus on your opponent. Not me.”“My opponent? She’s already…” Jezz Bell shifted her head to look in Rye’s direction.Rye was still standing, and her cl
Many decades ago, when Bob was young enough to call himself a handsome man despite having an ugly head, he was holding an injection that had what looked like a translucent liquid with glowing particles here and there.“Once I inject this into your body, whether it’s in the muscles or in the blood…” he was teasing Belladonna, the brunette he couldn’t wait to have sex with because she looked so damn beautiful. However, the king didn’t give him permission yet, so he had to suppress his feelings and keep his thoughts to himself. “The monster genes in this liquid will alter your chromosomes, and you’ll no longer be a human. You will experience a lot of cancers hurting your body immediately. The inflammations will make you look ugly, but you have to endure if you want to live. And if you endure until the end, then your genes will be transformed. I have no idea what you’ll become, but you’ll definitely be anything but human. You’ll be genetically transformed forever, and if you’re able to pr
“Death by Thousand Dots!” Jezz Bell released all the needle-like spines that had grown on her body and sent them all flying at Benjamin as they spun and drilled and whistled through the air.Jezz Bell believed that this attack likely wouldn’t kill Benjamin but would at least debilitate him.However, all the spines got blown away by a local breeze, and Rye made her entrance. She could have used stronger wind, but the flames were still burning everywhere, so it wouldn’t have been a wise move.What annoyed Jezz Bell wasn’t that Rye returned, but that she only had minor burns on her body. “Your wind ability shouldn’t have saved you from my fire, so how the hell did you… wait, it’s the spiritual energy, huh…” she hissed. “Tch, why don’t you teach me how to use it? That endless energy flowing in the aether… if I can make use of that, I wouldn’t have to worry about running out of energy.”“Rye…” Benjamin uttered with a cold gaze. “We’ve wasted enough time with this woman. I don’t want to was
At Rye’s Pizzas.Christopher, the fat manager, of the store was struggling to put a smile on his face even though a lot of customers visited the store and made online orders.“Why are these new recruits so stupid? They don’t remember the routes of the customers’ houses or even their names for fuck sake!“I really miss my top worker, my knight in shining armor, Benjamin! Where is he? He knew the names, preferences, and the shortest routes to the customers’ houses. He was equal to a hundred workers. Life was easy when he used to work here, but now, I’ve lost three kilos in the last week. This is too much to take.”Christopher looked around and couldn’t see the familiar faces anymore.“Where’s Sasha? Where’s Damian? Where did they go without any prior notice? I can’t reach any of them. Sasha’s grandmother died. I hope she’s doing okay. She’s a silent type, and silent types are sensitive. I can’t help but worry for her.”He kept shaking his head.“Things changed ever since that shootout h
Selena was never the type to enter the kitchen, but she was making coffee in the kitchen now, even though there were maids to help her.After checking its taste and being satisfied with the product she made, Selena then went to meet her daughter on the balcony. Selena had a surgery done to her broken nose, and so it looked almost the way it had before the injury.“I personally made it, so have a taste,” Selena said on purpose, or she was afraid that Rebecca might refuse it.After a pause, Rebecca grabbed the saucer.“You are someone who used to earn over a million dollars a month,” Selena said, tasting the coffee from her cup. “You can’t be sitting here and staring at the sky like a senile person who’s got nothing better to do.”“I’ve worked my ass off for years, Mom. I gave you most of the money I earned, and you betrayed me, but I still have some money in my account,” Rebecca drank the coffee even though she didn’t like to drink what her mom made. “I can sit here and stare at the su
Dahlia and Akira were dashing through the woods. They had to take a different route as a horde of flying beasts had blocked their way, forcing them to go through the network of underground tunnels before ending up somewhere farther from the floating city. So they had to rush at full speed to try and get to the destination as soon as possible.Along the way they came across a foggy zone where the great crude oil river was flowing through the forest. It was a highly toxic zone for normal people because the evaporated oil filled the air with all kinds of harmful chemicals.Dahlia and Akira’s skin started getting rashes, but then Dahlia released her spiritual energy and covered both of them. Not only did this energy shield them from the toxic gasses, it also healed them. Akira was amazed by it, especially because she thought that Dahlia’s spiritual energy could only kill the vampires. Now, she wondered if the intention of the user had more to do with how the spiritual energy affected othe
