The celebrant got up and held the torch high, and the others stood around him, their burning torches raised to the sky.
"We accept the terms of Genesis. If this is not true, the body will die, and the soul will go to hell." The celebrant shouted.
The crowd in the magic circle chanted in unison: "We accept Genesis's terms. If this is not true, the body will die, and the soul will go to hell."
Outside the magic circle, the Vampire King roared like a mad dog.
"Genesis, go away. Lowly humans, you won't be saved by him."
The people around the celebrant Marius prayed with one heart, looking forward to the light in the night sky. That is the only one who can save them from the clutches of the vampires. They believe in this powerful god and vow to leave humanity's fate in the hands of Genesis.
Feeling the sincerity and firm faith of those who performed the sacrificial ritual, the booming voice again resounded throughout the sky.
"I accept your oath. From now on, humans will be the masters of the earth."
The Vampire King raised his black sword toward the sky, roaring.
"Genesis, we are the masters of the earth. Humans are just an inferior species; they don't deserve to be on our level."
"Dominic, your ancestors were favored by me. I give the vampires the power to protect all beings on earth. But you have done wrong what I gave you. You destroy other species, including humans."
The rumbling voice made the Vampire King tremble with fear. But he was used to being the lord of all things on earth, so he still kept his bossy look.
"I do not accept the lowly humans to stand on an equal footing with us."
"Of course, humans will not be equal to you because from now on, they are the masters of the earth," Genesis responded to the Vampire King.
"Humans are the masters of the earth, so what about us? What are we here?" The angry Vampire King jumped up and attacked the light with his sword.
There was a thunderclap, followed by a flash of lightning that struck the Vampire King's body, causing him to fall to the ground, his face burning like coal.
"Insolent, I am the one who created your ancestors. How dare you disrespect me!"
The Vampire King scrambled to his feet; he raised his sword toward the sky, his eyes bloodshot.
"Even if you created my ancestors, I will not allow humans to become masters of the earth."
"Dominic, with what vampires have done, you are no longer masters of the earth, nor are you allowed to live on earth. I will open the portal for you to live in another dimension. There are no humans, no creatures as rich as the earth; that is my punishment for the vampire race."
The voice was so loud that the vampires were afraid to swarm around the Vampire King. And the crowd of humans standing in the magic circle sat in fear, huddled together, looking up at the light in the sky.
"We don't want to go anywhere; the earth is ours, where our ancestors lived. Why are humans allowed to stay, and we have to go somewhere else?"
The Vampire King shouted, his voice like the roar of a tiger. The vampires around him also ferociously bared their fangs, raising their claws toward the light.
"Since vampires have destroyed other species, you must accept my punishment. Ten days from now, I will open the portal to take you to a new place." Genesis said.
"We're not going anywhere." All the vampires shouted. They raced towards the light as if to pull Genesis out to kill him.
"If you remain on earth, I will strip you of all your powers. Do you want to stay on earth with only human-like powers or go to a place where you still retain all your power and you can dominate that place? I give you ten days to think. I only open the portal once; anyone who doesn't make it in time will have to accept the loss of all strength."
Genesis' threat worried the Vampire King. The creator god is the Creator of the ancestors of all species on earth, so he wants to remove the power of vampires is possible.
He looked at the people inside the magic circle with bloodshot red eyes, then raised his face to the sky and roared:"Okay, we will think about it carefully. We will have an answer for you in ten days."
The celebrant Marius recognized the Vampire King's menacing gaze. Frightened, he clasped his hands in front of his chest, looking toward the light in the sky.
"O God of Creation. During those ten days, how should we protect ourselves against the power of vampires?"
"I have received your angels and prayers; I will protect you from the clutches of vampires." The voice echoed across the sky.
A beam of fire-red light immediately enveloped the children sitting around the celebrant. When the light went out, the children were gone. Only the old celebrant Marius stood like a wooden statue on the ground.
The light and the children disappeared, causing the women to weep bitterly. They stretched their arms up to the sky as if they wanted to reclaim their minor children.
The sky was dark, with only torches and the magic circle emitting a faint light.
The Vampire King angrily attacked the magic circle with only a few glimmers of light left. The celebrant and the magicians were exhausted; their magic power could not withstand the attack of the vampires.
When the magic circle lost its effect, the celebrant and the magicians fell to the ground, their mouths filled with fresh blood, and their eyes looked up at the night sky for the last time and closed forever.
The vampires roared through the magic circle, charging at the frightened crowd huddled together. They lost the protection of the magicians, although Genesis had promised to protect them, but facing the fierce vampires, they still trembled. The men quickly hugged their wives and children to protect them, and the women and children closed their eyes, not daring to look at the fierce vampires.
When the weak humans were trembling in fear, thinking they would die from the vampire's claws, light emitted from their bodies suddenly pushed the vampires away. It was the light of the Sun god; it burned the vampires' claws and made them scream in pain.
Realizing the God of Creation protected them, the healthy men immediately stood up, holding hands, forming a protective circle for the women and children inside. They looked at the bloodthirsty vampires with defiant eyes.
The Vampire King swept aside his vampire subordinates, raised his black sword high, and charged with all his might toward the trembling crowd. He did not believe that the god of Creation had left and that he could not defeat the humans who were protected only by the little remaining power of the god.
But when the sword slashed down, there was a sudden burst of bright light from the crowd, forming a solid circle protecting them inside. The blade seemed to hit a stone wall and bounced back, causing the Vampire King's hands to numb in pain.
He stared at the circle of light protecting the crowd with blood-red eyes, roaring:
"Genesis, you wait; I will chop you into a hundred pieces one day. Is this lowly human being worthy of your protection?"
The God of Creation was no longer here, but his power manifested through the halo of light that protected the multitudes of humans was present in front of the Vampire King, making his blood boil.
The Vampire King knew that even if he continued to stay here, he would not be able to kill the humans protected by the god. He swung his sword and destroyed the houses around the square to vent his anger.
The vampires imitated their king, furiously destroyed the entire city, razed all the still intact houses, and then returned to the Vampire King's castle on a high mountain.
Surrounding the vast castle of the Vampire King were walls of gray stone. There is no road to get there; the mountain area is just craggy cliffs.But the cliff is only dangerous to humans, and with its strength, vampires can reach the castle quickly.Inside the vast castle lit by torches embedded in the stone walls, the Vampire King sat on a throne, wielding a black sword, watching his subordinates stand below."Ten days after, Genesis will open the space portal for us to live in another land. What's your opinion?"The vampires immediately started cursing humans and Genesis. They were so angry that everyone's eyes were as red as blood.A man with silver hair raised his hand to signal the vampires to be quiet, then stepped forward to stand in front of the throne."My venerable king, the earth is ours; we should fight the Genesis for dominion.""Against the Genesis?" A middle-aged man in a red robe stepped up from the crowd. "You should remember, Genesis created all things. To fight him
"We are descendants of the people left on earth, so we no longer have the power of the original vampire, am I right?" After hearing the story three thousand years ago, Uri glanced at Finn."We have not only lost our strength, but also our ancestors' aggressive and killing nature." Finn replied, then added: "Although Genesis stripped us of our power, we still retain our speed, longevity, and eyes that can see in the dark.""Because they lost their power and became better than their ancestors, even better than many human beings, so I opposed the existence of the Red Leaf organization," Clement said."Dad, can you tell me more about the Red Leaf organization?" Uri curiously asked Clement."After the portal closed, humans discovered that some vampires still exist on earth. They knew that Genesis had stripped vampires of their powers, so they hunted down and killed these vampires for revenge." Clement continued the story."To make this more effective, h
Finn was silent for a moment, carefully choosing his words before continuing:"After the dimensional portal closed, not only did Prince Nolan and his minions remain on earth, some distant vampires did not receive the information, nor were they able to arrive in time to pass through the portal.""The prince has gathered everyone to the castle in the mountains to fight together against humanity's revenge. One night, the prince heard the voice of the Creator. He told the prince that he had left the key to the space portal. If we find it, we have a chance to reach a new land.""The key to the space gate?" Uri whispered in surprise. "Is there that key?""I don't know, but we believe in it to have a living hope, better than no hope," Finn replied sadly.Uri thought for a moment, then wondered. "For three thousand years, no one has found that key. Why don't you guys find another way?""Our previous generations sought to compromise with humanity so that we could live peacefully with them. But
After reaching the edge of the forest, Clement drove the car he had hidden in a nearby bush, leaving the forest. Uri jumped on a tall tree and watched until the car disappeared on the road leading to the city."Let's go. Even if you want, you can't live with your family; we must accept this fact." Finn jumped up and stood beside Uri on the tree branch, admonishing.Uri's gaze did not leave the tall buildings of the distant city. The city was where he had lived all these years. There he had family, friends, and dreams of attending medical school and becoming a doctor."I want to go home." Uri snorted, trying not to let the tears flow.Finn patted Uri on the shoulder. "Calm down. We all want to live happily like humans. But you know, they don't want us to exist."Uri lowered his eyes; he understood that. He didn't want to accept this cruel truth. But now, there was nothing he could do, and he sadly followed Finn back to the dense forest.Returning to the wooden house, Uri opened his bac
Uri stayed in the mountain cave for two days, then returned to the wooden house. It was his rendezvous with Clement, so he wanted to be there often so he could see Clement when he arrived. Finn continues to accompany Uri to the wooden house. After all, Uri was still an inexperienced child; he desperately needed help from others. With his extensive experience, Finn and Uri carefully inspect the forest; he wants to help Uri get used to how to protect himself. After ensuring there weren't any strangers in the woods, they went to the wooden house. From that day on, Uri went to the edge of the forest every night and hid in the treetops waiting for Clement's arrival. Finn doesn't stop him; he sympathizes with Uri's feelings. It was late at night, and the dew fell on the trees, making the air cold. Finn jumped onto a high branch, standing beside Uri. He looked at the empty road that ran through the forest, sighed, and said: "It's late at night; your father isn't here. We should go back t
Uri turned the pages of the ancient book; he had read carefully the books Anthea had brought. The content of the two books about vampires was similar to what he had read in school. And in particular, there is no information that the Red Leaf organization has hidden. As for the book about the creator god, there were some important information, so he wanted to ask Clement. Half a month later, Clement and Anthea arrived at the bungalow in Uri's impatience and anticipation, this time, they also brought him lots of food. Sitting in a wooden house without candlelight, Anthea hugged Uri's arm in fear. "Why don't you light a candle? I'm afraid of the dark." "Should not." Clement immediately objected. "Having light will easily attract the attention of others. Your brother, his friend, and I are here; what are you afraid of?" Anthea did not dare to ask for more. She sat quietly beside Uri, listening to the stories of the men. "In the book about the creator god, I saw a passage about how m
Today is an important day, so the national museum displays many antiques of great value. From the gate, security forces check visitors; there are also many careful guards around and inside the museum.The National Museum in the city center has a classical style with elaborately carved granite pillars; giant paintings painted hundreds of years ago on the curved domes.Uri wore oversized sunglasses that covered most of his face; he was standing in the crowd lined up in front of the museum's entrance, waiting to get inside. He looked around and was pretty relieved when he did not see the appearance of men with red leaf-shaped badges on their lapels. He tried to stay calm, like a resident visiting a museum.After presenting his ID card, he went through the gate very smoothly and followed the group of visitors into the large hall of the museum, here displaying many artifacts with a long history. The museum was large, and it took him a long time to find a place to display the ancient book,
Uri arrived at the wooden house, opened the bag, and dumped everything on the table. In addition to the golden book, there were several other precious treasures."How did you get them?" Finn looked at the treasures on the table in amazement."Just when I arrived at the museum, a group of robbers stole these treasures. I followed and took the treasure from them." Uri replied.Finn picked up the book; it was gold, so even though it was about the size of a paper book, it was pretty heavy. "Is this the book you want?""That's it." Uri happily replied. "Just when I couldn't think of a way to read it, someone stole it.""Fortunately, so let's see what's inside this book." Finn began to turn the pages.Although the ancient script was difficult to read, Uri and Finn understood it. This book recounts the war between humans and demons three thousand years ago. Then Genesis drove the demons back to their dark world, and humans became the masters of the earth."This is the war between the humans
Uri doesn't need to wait for a long time. After he woke up, the door of the room opened. In front of the door appeared two men wearing white suits, white shoes, and white hats covering their faces, looking very similar to the clothes of the staff in the laboratory.They silently entered the room and pushed out the bed that Uri was lying on. It is the type of bed usually used in the hospital emergency room; the four legs of the bed have wheels for easy movement.Uri looked up at the two men and asked:"Where are you taking me?"The two men didn't seem to hear him; they didn't answer but silently pushed the bed along a corridor lit only by a few electric light bulbs hanging from the ceiling.The hallway had no windows, only light from electric bulbs, so Uri didn't know if it was day or night. The sound of wheels grinding against the brickwork and the electric light strained his spirits.Uri felt that the corridor seemed to lead underground because the path was sloping down and revolved
Uri appeared to Clement's astonishment and fear. He rushed forward and pushed Uri away, and shouted:"Get out of here now!"Uri didn't do what Clement wanted; he looked at Richard resolutely. "I have come at your request. Let go of my sister!""Very good!" Richard laughed. "We will release your sister. But I don't trust you and your father. If you want to save your sister, you must let us give you an anesthetic.""Can not," Clement shouted. "Uri, they are liars; you must not believe them. Get out of here now!""Dad!" Uri looked at Clement. "Thank you for worrying about me. But I don't want Anthea to go to prison. I want to save her.""I won't let you do that; I can think of another way." Clement grabbed Uri. "Let's go now!"Two men rushed over and grabbed Clement's hands. He angrily twisted his elbow and hit a man in the stomach. The two men immediately restrained him with force, pinned him to the ground, and clasped his hands behind his back.Richard walked in front of Uri, smiling.
Uri immediately stuffed all the artifacts into his backpack and slung it over his shoulder, dragging Clement outside. But Clement jerked his hand back, pushing Uri to the door."You and Finn go now; they are besieging the area. They dare not do anything to me, don't worry about me; protect yourself!""Your father is right; let him stay here. They dare not harm him. We need to get out of here; I feel many people are coming." Finn said, then took Uri's hand and ran fast into the dense forest.Moments later, a group of about twenty men approached and surrounded him when Clement had gone a short distance from the log house. A scar-faced man led the group, who wore red leaf badges on their lapels."Hello, Clement." Richard crossed his arms and stood in front of Clement. "Oh, hello Richard, what are you doing here?" Clement paused, calmly looking at Richard and the group of people surrounding him.Richard sneered, "So what are you here for?""I go for a walk," Clement replied. "Is it illeg
