The Curse Mortal Ch 42: The Eagle's Mug
The graver keeper says watching the same two figures walk their way over to him as Marcus and Neva are getting closer they get a picture of what he looks like.He has droopy tangerine-colored eyes. His fine, straight, short hair is the color of summer leaves with bits of gray showing, meaning the man is near reaching his old age and is worn in a simple style. He is very short and has a graceful build. His skin is cream-colored.“Graver keeper, we need you to bury these bodies we have here.” Neva was the one to speak to the man first.That man looked at the horse, seeing that it was getting tired while carrying the number of corpses on its back, showing to be tired by the weight on the poor creature's back. “So you want me to put those bodies in the ground for you two?” the grave keeper says giving an off-putting tone that makes the two think he may have an issue with it. “Is that a problem for you knowing it's your job to put bodies in the ground isn’t it,” Marcus asked, wanting to
The Curse Mortal Ch 43: Look your free
That was the utmost worst question to ask someone that sort of thing.“Are you an idiot or something? The girl finally spoke and it was to insult Hobert.“Hey there's no need for that, I just didn't have anything to start with as a conversation, so I picked that to be it," Hobert says trying to defend his reason for the question that he asks."And that was the best one you can come up with, surely you would have done better than that to start a conversation with someone." The girl said, sounding disappointed."Well, I am a bit curious about the slave thing. I mean I have seen some unfortunate poor fools sold off like that back in the town in the market area when I was a guard." Hobert says.She went back to being quiet which made him think the talk had come to a quick end."I was sold to that man by my parents when he offered them money." She says with that sad tone."Your parents sold you for money. It's unbelievable how much people can do that to their child." It was not a hundred p
The Curse Mortal Ch 44: A fighting prey
That voice was the ghost of his former self walking beside the current Marcus of the present when on the hunt to feed. “Again you do not understand, I need to feed and if I don’t get it then I will go mad from starvation,” Marcus says back, annoyed further. “Why must it be this way surly the animals could be the best main choice to be food instead of a living being." The past he said offered such a suggestion. "The blood of the beastly creatures do not match well with that of living humans in pure taste." He responded since have fed on animals a while ago. At the same time keep on moving, looking to find a lonely human that would be around this time or a traveler passing by. "That is only because you refuse to stay on feeding on animals when you know you can do it truly to keep from taking lives." His dead self from the past says. "Let it go, I don't want to have this talk with myself like this. I need to stop this madness somehow." Marcus never likes to hear the ghost of what he
The Curse Mortal Ch 45: Finally a bite
Marcus walks himself into the river water and the distance between him and the deep-tanned female gets smaller with each step."Don't make this more difficult than it has to be, I much rather have my food easy without the fighting needing to happen,” Marcus says getting ready for the fight. “Stupid vampire, I’m going to do more than put up a struggle against you as a night creature like you will taste the only blood is your own.” He couldn't understand what she had said since it seemed to be from a native language, yet it was not hard to get a feeling that something unkind came out of that mouth.So Marcus had the small crossbow fire at the female to be a distraction for just a second knowing there wasn’t a chance of the arrow hitting. Once seeing her use the Khopesh sword in hand to block away the arrow that was all the opening he needed going forward at full speed.Marcus goes for the grab so he can sink his fangs into her neck, yet that chance gets intercepted when she had her l
The Curse Mortal Ch 46: A quick turnaround
She says right as that same hand turns sideways like a pointed arrow against his chest. Staying that way for a few seconds until there was a quick movement when that hand turned into a fist striking hard and fast like lighting against the chest.Marcus felt this thought at first this deep-tone female was trying to punch her way free.Yet it was not the case there was this intense pain that forced him to remove his fangs to deal with this matter."What…. Have you done….. to me." He asked between broken breaths."You shouldn't have bitten me." She says to him in a cold tone.Then strikes again, this time aiming for the neck using that hand to quickly chop where the breathing gets cut off. It didn't stop there as she did an open-palm uppercut. This attack was to cause a disabled connection to the nerve that controls movement.Marcus falls onto his knee getting deeper into the water right before her."Now I have you at my mercy. Have you ever experienced a thing or is it mostly those of y
The Curse Mortal Ch 47: The order that took me in
The grave keeper said by the way that came out of his mouth there was a slight sadness that Neva had no trouble in detecting it. She can have a telling feeling that something in the man's past was not a good one to talk about so easily. “A soldier you say, I take it that something not well happened in your past life is that right,” Neva says carefully, wanting to not overstep at the moment. “You're right something did happen, you see I was a soldier of a high-rank commanding officer named Abraham Hoffman. I once served under the Liqathen kingdom and my home was targeted by an army of Orcish beings which suddenly took the whole land by surprise.” it was all that he planned to give and nothing more. “That…. Can’t say anything to share any same understanding feelings on that as I was a baby left at the door of an order that took me in to give me a place to call him.” Neva says, staring at the fire with focus. Abraham gives the girl a moment before he could ask a question seekin
The Curse Mortal Ch 48: one that offers blood
When Neva opens and closes the door of the grave keeper's home the great heightens the ability to hear things at a further range than those of normal.What is brought to her ears are the sounds of two fighting against one another to take one's life in this conflict. It is clear what this could mean that Marcus found prey.Yet prey isn’t an easy target given the difficulties that someone makes for its attacker. “Oh no Marcus you are a fool to have tried feeding,” she says where no time was wasted.Hurrying at the fastest speed to find those two locations where it would not take long for her to find and discover the sight of a deep-toned woman about to cut off the head of Marcus down on his knees.She had to quickly speak out to stop what was about to happen.”Wait don’t kill him,” +++++++++++++“Who are you?.” the woman asked, keeping the Khopesh sword at the base of Marcus' neck while looking at the female who had just shown up.“My name is Neva, I serve The order
The Curse Mortal Ch 49: A coversitation and a new companion
Marcus says that to be a little joke after just having blood from Neva that was offered for him to drink and filled the hunger to completion."Whatever you say, just let me know that I have your word that you won't try any further." Neva looks him in the eyes waiting to hear his answer."Fine, I will for now that is," Marcus tells her.No longer is there a need to feed as he will humor this matter for the time being?“I think we can now have a chance at talking normally now don’t you think you two,” Neva says as she takes a second to look at the faces of the two the girl is standing between.The deep-tan woman takes a look at the vampire Marcus who stares back at her knowing what each could be thinking at the time.She would love nothing more than to use her Khopesh sword to slash off the creature's head and be done with this.Yet the young female who has given up her blood to the vampire of her own free will does make this interesting to end too soon since never before the woman had

Ch 77: Extended mouth
That is what Neva said right as repeated the same thing a second time having the left hand now grip itself at the right side of Rosetta's stomach.Resulting in the same way as a piece of vampire flesh taken away once that same hand pulled back, but Neva went for a 3rd time with this same move.Putting herself behind Rosetta not having the moment to breathe when coming under attack the same way again feeling Neva's hands grip into her back.The same again happened just the last time as the 4th time was about to come, but Rosetta grew tired of it when she turned around and had the pointed end of the umbrella meet head-on with Neva's open hand as it stabs through preventing this last attack from happening. The pain from that impact is sent in a wave to the girl's mind letting it be known that she had to move that hand back as soon as possible. When she did there were also a few steps for space between them. “Enough! You managed to get me mad, but I won’t hold it against you as I wante

Ch 76: Are you human
That was not so common praise Ronal would make to humans as it could mean he has some level of repeat toward the one himself is facing at the moment. “I take that complacent being the only good thing a vampire like you has to say about me,” Leonor says, having a little laugh about it.“Don’t let that go to your head, I'm still going to kill you and most definitely take pleasure in drinking your blood.”Ronal shows Leonor a wicked smile to make anyone worry or uncomfortable, but that isn’t doing anything to her in fact, she returns one. Her reaction does make him question why it is on that face, but he is careless taking a step forward and nothing of the body moving. It then he understands soon enough that both of his legs are trapped by hands made from shadows under him. Ronal knows it belongs to Leonor as it is her doing whatever dark arts of magic she was doing.Yet because of these few seconds of not paying attention giving his opponent just the needed time to strike with those

Ch 75: A curse can be turn into a weapon
Marcus takes the chance and sees if he can do further damage having his sword pulled out right as he rises from the ground and performs the next attack.Swing downwards angle where the blade slashes its way from the upper left shoulder all the way across toward the end of the right side of the stomach. Blood came gushing out from the wound made in this vampire's body and at the moment there was no sound of a cry of one in pain or the look on such expression to match.Fetha just has a smile, one to be simple, with nothing sinister behind it whereas Marcus found the look to be unsettling. One would have to be when fighting an enemy who just smiles after getting slashed, either they love pain or they are far stronger than they look.“Please this hurts, but not as much as you think, the level of pain can’t compare to the pain I can give to others,” Fetha says with a bit of mocking in that tone. “This is just starting, give it some….” Marcus's talking gets cut short when feeling a heavy m

Ch 74: A lesson from Rosetta
Rosetta just laughed at what Neva said to her seeing the threat made was more of a joke for this vampire, she didn’t see this hybrid as much of anything requiring much-needed data to see if this one was worth meaning anything to this vampire. “Come then and try to take this black heart of mine, but don’t talk nonsense if you can’t make such a thing happen,” Rosetta says, doing a little mocking to see if she can make her mad.“Gladly.” Neva charged at Rosetta who just stood in place allowing for the girl to reach her.Once in close range from each other Neva throws a punch and easily misses the target that wasn’t going to let it hit.Spanning around and performing a counterattack with the umbrella in hand Rosetta was going to use it as a weapon to slash through the person in front of flesh.Neva jumped back a step and saw the Umbrella cutting into the ground by the power of strength behind that swing, She then tries to do a sidekick aiming for the right side of Rosetta's face, but t

Ch 73: You look like someone I don't like
Rosetta puts all her attention on Neva as she and the humans alive are hiding behind the earth wall conjured by the girl to be a shield of protection from the undead around.That vampire girl ignored the two serpent fights going on with her two siblings worrying about nothing as she is sure they can handle who they are up against on their own.Once Rosetta reaches the wall she places a hand on it whereas on the other Neva can sense her presence and has to make a move now when placing both hands that glow on the wall.“This should be easy to break through with no need to trouble myself at all.” Rosetta thought.Yet during the moment, two large hands formed from the earth walls show up from both sides coming in to crush the intended target.“Trying to crush me to death this way is a good move, but it's going to take more than this,” Rosetta says.The two hands connected with Rosetta in the middle it would seem at first they have gotten her, but for the next second, those earth hands are

Ch 72: Feeling left out
Fetha's deep concern for her brother after he has gotten cut by Leonor's sword that vampire attention focuses on instead of Marcus. He takes the chance moving forward fast to impale his sword right into the left shoulder to make sure it went in good and deep through the bone. “Pay attention to the moment now, your life is in danger as well,” Marcus says, twisting the sword at the time. “Why do you little shit think you can get away with hurting me like this.” Fetha's fast kick into the chest had him push back as he had his two feet plated to the ground making sure as well to keep his sword in his hand when it happened. Marcus endured the pain from that kick and kept his stance facing Fetha where she wasn’t too happy with what had happened, but worried not that much of the wound given by him when the healing began right away leaving behind the blood stain and the hole created by his sword. “Very well I see no point to myself not having a weapon of my own with this fight, I shall

Ch 71: Just the distraction
A question that the young Deirdre couldn’t help to ask out loud without a thought that all could have heard her blunt it out.“I can’t tell, but the way his body got all cut up like that, I would say at best maybe, but with him, I got a feeling there is still a fight in him to keep on going,” Abraham says with a little worry in his voice.“He's not dead, there are still sighs inside that body, I mean he's one of us vampires that can’t be killed that easily. Besides I held back unless unfortunately, this one was weak.”Fetha give the answer while watching Marcus working slowly getting back up and turning around to face her, having an agonizing expression on his face.The many cuts received are quite deep from the female vampire bleeding a lot and fast. Lucky to be not human because if one went through such an ordeal then it would be surely impossible for them to even have a life after. “Now!.” is what Marcus yells out which in a second was confusing till the reason he shouted like t

Ch 70: Fetha Obsession
What Rosetta and Ronal are talking about is the obsession dear Fetha has when it comes to the opposite sex. She takes great enjoyment in the part of hurting them, torturing them, breaking parts, and destroying their spirit until they become very mindless pets for such a vampire like her. “The other reason Fetha was picked is because she is going to take her time with this person, making him scream for the longest time, wasting time playing around,” Ronal says, complaining. “Oh yes, if I was to go with you there was no doubt in a matter of time you would have ended the duel where it wouldn’t have been much entertainment.” “Well you speak the truth there sister, but you can’t blame me when I think it just isn't worth the effect.” “That is yet to be seen for the moment, let us just enjoy the show shall we.” The two then go to silence their discussion to watch the duel between Fetha and Marcus going on. Marcus takes his steps back doing all he can to just control the focus afte
