The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 42: The Vampire's Dilemma: Good vs. Evil
"Let's go out now, then," James suggested. He looked at Evangeline, waiting for her response."No," Evangeline shook her head. "We can't go now.""Why?""There are many vampires here. But not all of them are bad.""Are you serious?" Jack exclaimed. "Even among vampires, there are good and bad ones?""Yes, there are. Why? Am I a vampire, and am I not good?""No, that's not what I mean. Never mind, let's get back to the point.""Yeah, as I was saying," Evangeline started again. "Not all vampires are good. Some are on Theodoros's side. Even though Theodoros wasn't awake at that time, his loyal vampires were still active. Besides, I couldn't even go near the pond because of them.""So, what will we do now?""We have to kill them.""The vampires?""Yeah.""But how?""Listen, I'll tell you.""Okay, go ahead.""First, we needed to make them unconscious by letting them smell the fragrance of Ultra-Desmond. Then we had to drive a wooden stake into their hearts to kill them.""What’s this Ultra
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 43: A Morning in Heaven Brook
The story of the Vampire forestAdventure 4It was seven o’clock in the morning, and a new day just began at Heaven Brook. The early sunlight streamed through the window, casting a golden glow across the room. Jack woke up, stretched his arms, and got out of bed. After brushing his teeth and washing his hands and face, he hurried to the dining table."Mom, I have an important class today. Please serve breakfast quickly," he said.His mother placed a warm meal before him, and he ate quickly. Once finished, he grabbed his school bag and set off for school, ready to face the day ahead.***Physics class was in session. Mr. Greyson was delivering a monotonous lecture without pause. Physics was one of Jack’s favorite subjects, but Mr. Greyson turned it into an unbearable topic. His dull lectures numbed everyone in the class.Jack was sitting attentively, pretending to listen to Mr. Greyson’s tedious droning. However, he couldn't truly focus on the monotony of Mr. Greyson’s grating voice. S
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 44: Mission: Ghost Forest
The Astraeus gang fell straight into a filthy roadside ditch. They hadn’t noticed it while laughing and staring at each other, so what was bound to happen, happened. All four of them, bikes and all, landed in the rotting muck. Covered head to toe in mud and garbage, they looked like something out of a horror movie. Astraeus, trying to get up quickly, slipped again and fell flat on his back in the foul sludge. The others burst out laughing, doubling over with tears in their eyes. Jack laughed so hard he accidentally pressed on his injured nose with his left hand, wincing in pain and letting out a loud groan, which only made the others laugh harder. “Enough laughing, let’s head home,” Max said, finally composing himself. “It’s already pretty late.” Luna glanced at her watch and gasped. “Oh no! It’s four o’clock! I’m so dead! I’ve got to go!” Grabbing Tulip’s hand, she pulled her along. “Come on, Tulip, aren’t you coming?” “Yes, yes, let’s go,” Tulip nodded hurriedly. “We’re he
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 45: The Journey Begins
They packed their bags and belongings the night before. In the morning, Luna called Jack and Max, asking them to stay at Jack's house. She informed them that she and Tulip would pick them up from there.Max arrived at Jack's house early in the morning. He had breakfast with Jack. Not long after, they heard a car horn outside. They knew Luna and Tulip arrived. Jack went upstairs to his bedroom, grabbed his bag, and came back down. He saw Tulip and Luna sitting in the living room, chatting with his mom, Mrs. Bernard"Let’s go, let’s go!" Luna urged him as soon as she saw him. "We’re already running late.""Yeah, let’s go," Jack said and started walking toward the door. The other three followed him. Jack and Max loaded their bags into the car’s compartment.Before they got into the car, Jack's mom, Mrs. Bernard, gave them one last piece of advice. “Be careful, all of you, and take care of my boy.”"Of course, Auntie," Luna replied. "We’ll take care of your precious little boy." She ruffl
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 46: Keeping Secrets
As soon as Jack took a step after tying his shoelace, he couldn’t understand what happened in an instant. He found himself hanging upside down from the top of a large oak tree. A rope from above was tightly wrapped around his right ankle, keeping him suspended in the air.It took Jack a few moments to collect himself from the shock. When he looked down, his heart skipped a beat. He was dangling at least thirty feet above the ground. Falling from such a height would surely break his neck. Out of fear, he stopped flailing his arms and legs. Instead, he began shouting for help.Max suddenly noticed that Jack was no longer with them. “Hey, where’s Jack?” he asked.“Yeah, where did he go?” Luna added.“He was just with us,” Tulip pointed out. “Did he go back home?”“If he did, he would’ve told us,” Max said.Just then, they heard a shout. All three of them immediately perked up their ears. The sound came again after a brief silence. Breaking the quiet, Max said, “Isn’t that Jack’s voice?”
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 47: Moonlit Curiosity
Jack didn’t feel like sitting in his room anymore. He called home and chatted with his parents for a long time. After finishing the call, he went downstairs, grabbed a bottle of lemonade from the fridge, and returned upstairs. Holding the lemonade bottle, he walked to the long hallway in front of his room. As he looked outside, he noticed a car driving down the driveway toward the house."Dolly Aunty must have arrived," Jack guessed. Turning around, he saw the other three had also stepped out of their rooms—probably after hearing the sound of the car horn."Dolly Aunty’s here," Luna announced. "Let’s go downstairs." Without waiting for a reply, she started descending the stairs. The others followed her reluctantly.They reached the living room just as Dolly Aunty entered from outside."Auntyyy!" Luna exclaimed, running toward Dolly Aunty. Tulip followed right behind her. The boys stayed at the base of the stairs.Dolly Arnold hugged Luna and Tulip with both arms. "How are you two doin
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 48: The Haunting Questions
He looked back, but Tania wasn’t there. He quickly scanned his surroundings. He couldn’t find her anywhere. He ran to the other end of the hallway. Still nothing. He called her name, but there was no response."Strange!" Jack muttered absentmindedly. "Where did she go? Disappeared in such a short time?"He started licking his lower lip with his tongue, something he did when he was trying to think. Suddenly, from a distance, a wolf howled in a mournful tone. That sound shattered the stillness of the night. Unconsciously, Jack flinched. Even in this heat, he began to feel cold. A strange terror engulfed him. He couldn’t stand there any longer. He quickly went to his room, closed the door and windows, and lay down.Despite everything feeling odd, he fell asleep soon after. He woke up from a nightmare. He saw himself standing in a large open field. Overhead, thousands of bats were flying. But these weren’t ordinary bats. They were bloodsucking bats. Vampires.In the dark, he fumbled for t
The King of the Vampire Island Chapter 49: The Thrilling Tennis Match
Tania’s lips no longer held that mysterious smile. Her face was kind of tense, and her eyes had a sympathetic look. It seemed like she was feeling bad about Jack’s situation."Why is she doing this?" Jack asked himself, silently. But he couldn’t find an answer. Tania was such an odd girl. You could even say she was mysterious. Jack's thoughts were interrupted by the ringing sound of the telephone.Getting up from her seat, Tania lifted the receiver from the cradle and placed it to her ear. "Hello." There was silence for a moment. She seemed to be listening to someone on the other end. Then she said, "Yes... Yes... She’s here. Please hold on, I’ll give it to Mrs. Arnold." Looking at Dolly Auntie, she said, "Auntie, your call."Mrs. Arnold got up from the table and went to the phone. She took the receiver from Tania’s hand and placed it to her ear."Who... Mr. Gibson!! Yes... Yes... go ahead. No... no, now is not a good time?" There was a brief silence. After listening to the other side

A monstrous creature hurled Luke into the air. He landed on a seat beside the window, crying out in pain. Moments later, he saw them running away. He felt a surge of happiness, knowing he was saving his friends at the cost of his own life—what could be more gratifying?One of the monsters grabbed Luke by the throat, cutting off his air. He gasped for breath, struggling and flailing to break free, but couldn't escape that powerful grip. Deprived of oxygen, his head began to spin. A few more moments like this, and he would be dead. Ceasing his futile thrashing, he groped around, hoping to find something to strike the monster with. His hand touched a sharp metal rod. He grabbed it and thrust it into the monster's eye. The creature roared so loudly that Luke's eardrums felt like they might burst. The monster released him, and Luke gulped in air. At that moment, another monster attacked, sending him flying. He found himself in the engine room. Quickly regaining his composure, he slammed th
Chapter 92: The Fangs of Fate
Jack had been gone for quite a while in search of water. His prolonged absence began to worry them."Could it be that Jack's in trouble?" Orin wondered."Why is he taking so long?" Lily's voice was filled with anxiety. "I hope he hasn't run into any danger.""I don't know." Orin shook his head uncertainly."How about we search the area around us?" Lily suggested."That could be done," Orin agreed. "But I think we should wait a bit longer."Lily looked at Orin inquisitively. "Why?""Imagine we go out looking for him, and he returns in the meantime. If he doesn't find us here, he'll get worried and start searching for us. It's better if we wait a little longer to see if he comes back."Orin's reasoning made sense. Lily agreed, feeling it was best to wait a bit more.Just a couple of yards away from Jack, the king of cobras, the King Cobra, sat coiled. Its menacing hood was raised, eyes fixed on Jack. The snake's eyes were a vivid red, as if painted with a deep crimson hue. Typically, Ki
Chapter 91: A Sip of Danger
They kept running without a break. Their bodies couldn’t take it anymore. The muscles in their legs had gone stiff, almost numb. The strain was pressing down on their ligaments — any more running and it felt like they might snap.Suddenly, Orin came to a stop. Bending over, hands on his knees, he gasped, “I can’t go any further.” He was panting heavily. Seeing him stop, Jack and Lily halted as well, collapsing onto the ground. For a while, no one spoke. The only sound was their ragged breathing.“I can’t take another step,” Lily finally broke the silence.“Me neither,” Orin agreed. Jack stayed quiet, though his legs were just as drained. It dawned on them that they had ventured deep into the jungle. The trees here were denser, their canopies so thick that barely any sunlight reached the forest floor. The ground was damp, and everything around them felt moist. It rained here almost year-round, making the humidity sky-high. The air felt heavy, with over eighty percent humidity, making t
Chapter 90: The Fire before Dawn
"Hey!" someone shouted. The monsters all turned towards the sound. Jack and Luke stood there, each holding two torches. The torches were made by wrapping cloth around the head of a metal wrench and soaking it in petrol. Jo, Orin, and Lily saw them too. A smile spread across Lily's face. Luke hurled one torch at the monsters. Flames engulfed their bodies. Luke lit another torch with his lighter. Jack handed Jo a metal rod and told him to open the door with it. Meanwhile, Luke and Jack fought to keep the monsters at bay. Jo shoved the rod into the door and twisted it hard. The door creaked open. One by one, Jo, Orin, and Lily scrambled through. Jack and Luke stayed behind, holding off the monsters."Go!" Luke shouted. "I’ll handle them.""But I won’t leave you behind," Jack protested."Don’t worry about me." Luke drove the metal rod into one monster's eye. "Just go. Go!"But Jack refused to leave Luke alone. Luke realized Jack wouldn’t go willingly, so he shoved him through the door. Ja

"Okay, do you think we can make it back from here?" Orin asked.Joe didn’t say anything in response. He was leaning over the engine. He looked outside through the windshield. The moon had become dull. It was no longer shining. Everything was covered in darkness.Lily placed her hand on Orin’s shoulder. Orin jumped, startled. He turned to look at Lily. He smiled. A lifeless smile.Lily smiled too. "Of course, we’ll make it back."Luke was lying under the train, fixing the fuel gauge leak. He was being helped by Jack."Pass me the wrench," Luke said.Jack handed the wrench to Luke. "Where did Matthew go?" Luke muttered."How much longer will it take?" Jack asked, changing the subject. He was holding the flashlight."Almost done," Luke replied."It’ll be good once it’s done," muttered Jack.At that moment, somewhere far off, an unknown creature let out a sorrowful cry. Jack’s hand, holding the flashlight, shook. He didn’t understand why it was shaking. Luke looked at Jack. He guessed tha

Orin was startled. "Jenny, what's happened to you?" he asked with a fearful voice. Jenny didn’t answer. She kept growling like an animal."Let me see!" The old man shoved John forward. "Jenny, what's wrong with you?" He shook Jenny’s shoulder and asked. Jenny looked back at the old man. "Open the door. Let me go," she kept saying."Calm down, Jenny." The old man placed his hand on Jenny’s shoulder. "Everything will be okay.""Nothing will be okay," John said. He had a metal range in his hand. He moved forward. "Jenny is no longer a normal human. She's transforming into a monster. We have to kill her.""Get away from me." The old man growled. John didn’t back off. He moved closer. "Look, Mr.," he tried to convince the old man, "Jenny won’t get better. If she stays alive, we’ll all die at her hands."But the old man didn’t understand. He became enraged. "If you take one more step forward, I’ll smash your head in," he shouted."But I can't die for her," John said, and moved towards Jenny

Even though everyone else rushed off in panic, Orin stood still, bewildered. He couldn’t figure out what to do. That didn’t go unnoticed by Jo. He rushed towards Orin to save him. By then, the monster had reached Orin. Jo grabbed Orin and pulled him away. In trying to save Orin, Jo himself got into trouble. He stumbled and fell to the floor. The monster moved closer. There was no escape left. He waited for certain death. The monster leaned in close to Jo’s face and roared. Terrified, Jo shut his eyes. At that moment, the monster froze. Jo opened his eyes in surprise to see what had stopped it. In the next moment, he saw Orin had thrust a metal sheet into the monster’s belly.The monster threw Orin away with its powerful hand. Orin was flung far across the room. Just then, Jack struck the monster’s head with a metal rod. The monster turned to face him. From behind, Jon hit it with a cylinder.

Chapter 85: Paul’s Last Knock
"A window iron mesh was being installed by Jack. But it kept falling down again and again. To help him, Luke stepped forward. Together, they managed to install the mesh. Jack thanked Luke. A smile spread across Luke's face. This was the second time he smiled today. Just like the first time, his smile was wonderful. Just as his face was beautiful, his smile was just as charming. If Jack were a girl, by now she would have fallen in love with Luke."You're a very smart boy," Luke said.In response, Jack smiled and said, "There's no need for so much praise. Intelligence is in everyone's mind. Some can make use of it, some can't. The one who can use it, we call him smart, and the one who can't, we call him foolish."Until now, Luke had been listening to Jack's words, absorbed. As soon as he finished speaking, it was like he came back to reality. "I knew you were smart, but this much, I couldn't have guessed.""There’s still a lot of work left," Jack said, changing the topic.He didn’t like
