Pan put his hands behind his back. “I’ll let you have the first thousand attacks.”Benjamin, Rye, and Shadow dashed forth simultaneously, but almost instantly, a great light blasted out of Pan, blinding all of them.It happened very fast, and the light faded off pretty quickly, too.Rye looked around, but she couldn’t see anyone else but Benjamin. “W-Where did the devil go? Where’s Shadow? What exactly happened?”Benjamin stepped closer. “You were not awake when we fought the devil. Shadow died in the process, but we survived.” He held her hand. “Nothing will separate us from now on.”Rye was surprised to hear those words. “Benjamin…”He was about to hug her, but she waved hand and slashed through his neck, and it turned out that he was an illusion.“Tsk, how did you figure it out?” he asked. “I’ve completely tricked your five senses. You shouldn’t have been able to doubt me.”“Benjamin is still married, you bastard! He would never say such a stupid thing!” Rye released a burst of ene
“I just took her to the fourth dimension and made her spend 66 years over there, suffering as I slowly killed everyone she loved,” Pan casually answered while smiling. “It was quite a fun ride. Do you also want to experience the magic of time? I’ll let you experience 666 years of pain or pleasure depending on whether you’re willing to take my side or not. If you join me, I’ll put your dark powers to good use. If it’s you, it’s possible to combine the powers of vampires and werewolves and create an ultimate being on earth. You’ll be far more powerful than the one you’re serving now.” While he was talking to Shadow, he was also keeping an eye on Benjamin. “Why do you look sour? Do you feel regretful now?”“The only thing I feel regretful about is that you’ll still be alive after I beat your ass,” Benjamin retorted in a tangibly cold voice.Pan smirked and looked at Shadow. “Do you want to come to my side or not?” he didn’t sound that patient this time.“I’m already standing on the righ
Dahlia came to check on Rye’s condition. She looked physically okay, but mentally, she looked so drained. Dahlia infused some of her holy energy to help soothe Rye as much as possible. It did help Rye feel somewhat better.Shadow suddenly appeared in front of them.Rye looked up at him. “Did you find him?”Shadow shook his head. “If he was anywhere on this continent, I should have been able to find him, but his presence has completely disappeared.”“H-He didn’t die during that explosion, right?” Dahlia’s voice wavered.Rye frowned. “There’s no way that happened.”“But his opponent was none other than the devil,” a voice came from the side, startling everyone, for it was Damian.“Y-You’re still alive?” Dahlia was shocked. “Didn’t Benjamin completely destroy your heart?”“Yeah. I thought I died, too, but for some reason, I’m still alive,” Damian said, his voice not at all sounding weak. He looked like he had somehow recovered his lost energy. “But I think I have an idea as to why I’m st
Samael and Damian fought an intense battle that lasted many minutes, but in the end, Damian ran away from the fight.Samael didn’t chase him because he had better things to do.The first thing Samael did was find the ancient ‘written’ records left under the first vampire king’s grave. Despite all the damage done because of the recent fights, the grave was still intact because it was carved out of hard stone.Samael was very happy to see that the records were still there. “Solomon’s spells… Hahaha,” he laughed to his heart’s content. “When Amaal was alive, he didn’t let me into this cave, but now I’m finally able to get my hands on the spells that can summon demons from the abyss. With these spells, I’ll be able to transform the world however I see fit!”He kept staring at the writing, and couldn’t understand it.“I’ve heard that these scripts were written in assyrian language since the first vampire was an Akkadian.” He looked at his red bracelet. “Can you read it?”[Yes, of course.]
Akira was the one who first left the moonless kingdom, but the troubles she went through were numerous.When she was surrounded by many great beasts that were the size of mountains, she thought she was going to die. After all, these beasts weren’t just big, they were also stupidly fast. Moreover, Akira was already wounded and tired.“The nightmare cloak is also not working well because I’m on my last legs. Is this the end?” she clenched her fists. Her claws made her palms bleed. “Carlos… If he was in my shoes, would he have given up? I don’t think so.” She used her Vapor Walk to try and escape the beasts as best as she could. Because her stamina was already drained a lot, she couldn’t use her Vapor Walk for long, and the beasts easily caught up to her. “Dammit!” She grew wings and flew high, but a giant frog jumped and caught her in midair, miles above the ground level, with its sticky tongue.The frog rapidly pulled its tongue into its mouth.She thought she was a goner, but somethin
Dahlia and Rye almost reached the edge of the continent, where there was destruction all around.The collateral damage of the battle between Benjamin and Pan had reached all the way to this place. The shockwaves from their fight destroyed countless trees, and the shrapnel broken wood pierced the flesh of many monsters and made them go crazy.Even though this was a bad place to be around, they had to stop not just because they were tired and needed to catch their breaths but also because there was a crimson mist floating near the border.The beasts that entered the mist came out like mindless monsters that were on kill mode. Their aggression was upped to the max, and they attacked and killed anything that moved in their sight.Dahlia was the one carrying Mina’s body after Rye had stitched it together.“What the hell is that mist?” Dahlia didn’t have a good feeling about it. “It’s messing with the minds of those beasts.”“I think the vampires deployed it so that nobody will be able to e
A couple of days later.Delle, the most obedient and punctual and also sane maid in the Sterling villa, brought coffee in the morning to Rebecca who was now basically staying on the balcony most of the time.Because she was feeling so cold from staying outside, she grabbed the coffee without hesitation.Delle was still standing there with the ceramic plate in hand, so Rebecca said, “You can leave.”“Um…” Delle went out of her way to speak her mind. “Ma’am, if you don’t mind me telling you this, I don’t think what you’re doing is good for you. It will affect your health negatively, and you won’t be able to look healthy when Benjamin returns.”Rebecca was surprised for a second. She glanced at Delle. “You think Benjamin would return?”“I believe he will,” Delle didn’t sound too sure, but Rebecca could sense some honesty in her eyes. Till now, nobody in the villa had shown this much hope for Benjamin’s return, except for Akash. Even her sister Veronica didn’t believe in his return anymor
The moment Rebecca left the villa in her car, Louis followed her. Bella had to stay in the villa to look after her children.Selena immediately called Brian on her mobile. “She’s coming. You prepared everything well, right? If this fails, I don’t think I can give you another chance. I’m already so tired of many people failing.” Because she was a woman with a high success rate in her acting career as well as in many things she put her mind on, she had been vexed ever since Benjamin came into the sterling villa and began to turn Rebecca’s mind.“I’ve prepared the perfect thing,” Brian assured confidently. “It’s a highly advanced humanoid robot that will be posing as Benjamin. There’s no way she’ll be able to spot any difference.”“A robot?” Selena frowned. “Are you fucking kidding me? She’ll easily be able to tell the difference when she kisses him!”“No, she won’t. As I said, this robot resembles humans in almost every aspect,” Brian said. “Their skin is also highly realistic. They can
