Kabbus wondered why his parents weren't asking him any questions at the moment even though he was glad it was so as he hadn't prepared an answer yet. He knew he had to say something that would please them or they might send him away or even kill him, calling him a monster. He helped them gather the ones who were still alive and together, they all set out to leave the town he grew up in. Not that he had any great memory of the place anyway and he wasn't in the right mind to miss anything. Just when he thought he wouldn't miss anyone, his mind flashed back to the small boy who saw him in the academy's hospital and his heart raced again. "Maybe he would have gotten killed too. I heard almost all the students were killed and only a few were able to escape. Out of the few that escaped, they are all with us at the moment apart from a girl and looking at the kids, none of them look like that boy, which means he must be dead but why do I feel strange all of a sudden? Could the boy be trou
"Louis!" Wendy was the first to scream when he saw the metal sticking out of her son's stomach. Fear gripped her soul as she quickly rushed forward to save him but she wasn't fast enough. Lucas ran quickly, he grabbed Louis's hand and dragged him toward himself but he still wasn't fast enough as the metal had been pulled out of Kabbus's stomach and there was a big hole in his stomach. Kabbus looked at the hole in his belly but for some reason, he wasn't scared. He raised his head to look at the creature who stabbed him from the back and his anger grew. It was a beast... a humanoid beast but a weak one. Kabbus removed the knife that his father kept in his trousers and ran forward, without making a sound, he stabbed it into the neck of the beast and watched the beast fall to the ground. "It... It stabbed me from behind. It... cheated." That was the last word that came out of his mouth before he fainted but Lucas was quick enough to grab him before he reached the ground. Wendy was a
Kabbus found the answer reasonable enough and he liked it too. More than anyone else, he knew he had to get stronger and he was ready to do anything to do that. "Okay. I should go meet Dad. I should help them as much as I can." He said as he ran away from his mother and toward the direction where he knew his father would be. "Louis, you are awake?""Louis, Do you feel better now?"The villagers that saw him passing asked him but he had no time to answer any of them as he ran toward his father. "I will help you, Father." Little Kabbus said with a big smile on his face. Knowing that his family still accepted him despite knowing he wasn't human was something that warmed his heart and it made him love them more. A few Years Later...Little Kabbus had grown into a 16-year-old boy and during the last 6 years, he had tried growing his powers at every given chance. He no longer relied on blood as he didn't want to alert the people but he would go out during the night to fight some beasts
Kabbus never thought he could be this pained. He never expected to experience this kind of pain by seeing the corpse of the people he had grown to love over the years. These people weren't like him but they were his, his people, his propriety and... his only family. "They were the only ones who cared about me." Tears rolled down his eyes as he looked at Wendy's bloody face. His mind went back to the things that had happened since he was reincarnated and he blamed himself for staying back with these harmless people. He stood up from the ground and let out a deep breath. "I can cry all I want later, but I need to leave here first." He told himself as he avoided the corpses on the ground, made his way to his room and started searching his things. He took the money he had made over the years with the ones Lucas and Wendy made, after that, he destroyed the huts and looked at the body again. Kabbus wanted to leave them lying on the ground but his heart couldn't take it. With a little m
The sharp pain ran across Kabbus's body and he groaned as he rolled forward again but it was too late, the vine wrapped around his body, raising him. Kabbus's heart shook violently "Is this motherfucking vines trying to give me to the two-headed snake? What the hell is it doing?" He questioned as he started struggling against the vine. He was certain the vine wasn't part of the snake so why was it helping the snake then?Kabbus continued hitting the vine, moving his body abruptly and trying to use his elongated finger to cut it but nothing was working. The Vine refused to budge and it was tiring, almost putting him at risk. "Ugly thick rope, will you let me go or do I have to cut you into pieces!" Kabbus's sharp tongue got to work, his frustration had multiplied. With a loud hiss, Kabbus felt the vine release itself from him but before he could celebrate his freedom, a sharp kick sent him flying in the air and soon, his back hit a tree, causing him to fall face flat on the ground
Kabbus readied himself for a tough fight as the big toad walked majestically toward him. It was carrying itself very slowly but each step covered a lot in a second and the distance between Kabbus and the toad decreased faster than anyone would have imagined. Kabbus stepped back a bit, his eyes not leaving the toad as he removed his bag from his back and opened it. He searched it abruptly, looking for a sharper knife that would help him deal a fatal blow to the toad. "Heck! What the fuck is wrong with this damn bag?! Who asked you to be so fucking big inside?!" Kabbus yelled. His sufferings over the past few days had made him lose all rationality. He was no longer the omnipotent Kabbus who would filter his words anymore and each word that came to his mind at that moment was accompanied by a curse. Kabbus stormed his feet on the ground as he increased his pace in searching for the knives. He couldn't waste more time, the toad had kept its vine but its body seemed even more dangerous
The knife hit the toad's head mercilessly and it screeched weakly before its eyes closed and without doubt, it was dead. Kabbus stared at it for a while, trying to make sure he wouldn't make any mistake and when he saw that other than its blood, nothing else was moving, he decided to move closer to it. "I've got to take whatever I want to take from it now or I might attract the attention of that snake again," Kabbus said to himself as he made his way toward the toad. He bent down in front of the toad, staring at the enormous body while wondering how he was supposed to drink from such an ugly thing. He had a look of disgust on his face and if not for the fact that he had no idea when he might leave the forest and when next he would be able to take blood, he would have preferred to just walk away and never look back at the ugly toad anymore. He continued staring, thinking of ways to take the blood without using his teeth and that was when his eyes met the large gash on the toad'
Kabbus stared at his stat with stars in his eyes. With just 20% more, he would be a level 2 vampire and he was certain his strength would increase dramatically because the strength he got when he was just level one was already past normal human and he was very certain level 2 wouldn't disappoint him either. Kabbus stood up from the ground and packed his bag before he continued on his journey, he knew he shouldn't wait too long in the forest or he might encounter more danger and the risk of dying was high. He ran as fast as he could, avoiding danger when he could and killing some animals when he could. He would taste their blood too to increase his Stat and the improvement was making him very proud. Ten days later, Kabbus could feel his journey come to an end and a smile appeared on his face as he continued running. "I just have to run a bit more and I can get to the city. I just have to run a bit faster." That had been his song for the past few days. He wasn't hungry but he had liv
