At the bottom of the rocky hill was a medium-sized area of grassland where several white camps were set up close to each other. Several light balls were floating over the camp that illuminated the area.
There was another large camp in the middle of the other camps. Outside the camps, people in white and blue robes walked here and there with swords tied around their waists or bows and arrows behind them.
The men looked handsome and the women were very beautiful. This view is so fascinating!
But, what are they doing here?
Why do they have weapons on their bodies?
It makes sense if the men carried weapons to face any danger while on the way. But why do those gentle-looking women also carry weapons on their bodies?
Who are they?
At the main camp, a group of people stood around a rectangular table. On the table is a map and some parts of the map have been marked with an X.
On the side of the red pen was a pair of hands wearing gloves. Seeing the owner of the hands, there was a red-lipped woman with cold and dark red eyes, bowing her head to look at the map.
She wore a blue and white robe with a gold sword at her waist. On top of her long black hair, there is a gold crown suitable for a princess. There was a glowing blue pendant around her neck.
Her appearance which looks like a goddess can make people think of her as an angel. But, she is not an angel.
She is a Soul Huntress.
She is a rare existence.
In ancient times, the world was calm under human rule. However, the King of Aspen, the Emperor of the North and his entire family were suddenly infected with a deadly disease.
There is only one way for them to treat themselves which is by drinking human blood.
Within half a week, the entire population of the north, east and south had been wiped out. Oh, half of them.
The other half were infected with the same disease after they were bitten by the emperor’s family, now called, Royal Vampires.
They were shocked when they realized that they had gained extra power when they woke up from their violence at night.
They can hear everything out loud. For example, the human heartbeat.
They can see from afar.
They can smell better.
They can read other people’s minds and more.
In short, their senses have been wonderfully upgraded.
They compete with each other to see who is the strongest. The strong, become leaders and the losers, become slaves.
Vampires serve the Royal Vampires.
They want to conquer the whole world. However, something unexpected has happened.
Several new species have suddenly appeared.
They are Werewolves as well as Hunters.
40% of the population turned into Vampires, 30% became Werewolves and 20% were Hunters. There were even rumours about 7% of Witches and 3% of humans.
Werewolves respond to Lycans who are stronger than them and there are two types of Hunters. Vampire Hunters and Werewolf Hunters. These Hunters respond to the Soul Hunters.
Now, these Soul Hunters crave greater power and to realize this goal, they need tools to do some experiments.
To find the tool, they need to hunt.
The one responsible for this hunting mission is the Soul Huntress. In other words, the War Commander of the Hunters.
The Soul Huntress has the appearance of an angel and a saviour. But this rare species is the most ruthless among the others.
Why?
Because they are called Soul Huntress and Soul Huntress loves to hunt. Moreover, when they hunt souls.
Whose soul?
It doesn’t matter.
As long as they can hunt souls, they will be satisfied.
But, they also face a challenging part.
Yes, they are cruel, but not the strongest.
The strongest is the first species to be turned, the Vampire.
These nocturnal creatures can move efficiently at night and only Royal Vampires can move during the day.
Hunters can be said to be the best when formulating strategies for hunting their prey.
But, this is not true.
Because animals have had their minds since they were born to hunt for food. Especially, wild beasts.
Werewolves.
Werewolves have a dual appearance. One is a human and the other, is a four-legged dog-like beast.
Surprisingly, these human beasts have a tender heart towards their lover.
No.
They are not the only ones.
Vampires, as well as Hunters, also have these strange traits.
However, these ‘lovers’ can be either their strength or their destruction.
It can be the biggest happiness or the biggest nightmare of their lives.
At first, they find their lovers or soul mates among their species.
Then, the universe plays on their fate.
Since then, some of them discovered that their soul mates belong to the enemy.
Some are frustrated, give up and reject their soul mates.
Some are brave enough to accept their mates, move to secluded places, and breed Hybrids that are looked down upon by the original species.
Especially when the Hybrid is half-human. They are considered weak because one of their parents is human.
Yes, the human being is not completely lost from the world.
Those who survive are those who are lucky to be loved by these creatures.
So, what about schools or businesses or homes and everything that existed during human rule?
Yes, some still exist and some have been destroyed and abandoned.
Examples are schools, houses, shops, hospitals and palaces. These are places that still exist to this day.
Because of their high senses, some can live in snowy places, deserts or forests.
They will send their children to school to gain knowledge and train them physically and mentally. They built schools on their own land and they never mingled with other species.
Interestingly, this creature never gave up on showing off. They will still shop to their heart’s content like human beings.
Each of these species builds their own hospital and only hires their species to work there. The patients they receive and treat are only their species.
So, what about those Hybrids?
They are the most miserable of all beings. They can only be treated in their own homes and can only afford to buy their own medicine or tools to treat their injuries.
They often stay at home to receive lessons from their own parents and learn to defend themselves with the guidance of their parents as there are no Hybrid schools available for them.
Inside the palace, live all the Royal Vampires with their own territory to rule. Wolves and Hunters also have their own castles and areas of government.
These creatures also create barriers that divide their territory from the territory of other creatures.
“Ulrica and Quintessa’s team will attack the first barrier, Lingo. After that, Ingo’s team will attack the second barrier, Fulmort. Drusus's team will attack the third barrier, the Moon. Finally, Militiades will attack the main base, the Tane Clan Palace. ”Carissa pointed to the area that had been marked in red on the map as she spoke. She raised her head and said, “I hope everyone is ready. Our target today is the Tane Clan. If something unexpected happens, we must retreat immediately. Do you understand? ”“Your Highness, what if the Royal Vampires show up?” Quintessa asked worriedly.Carissa replied coldly, “They won’t show up. I’m sure the Werewolves are keeping them busy in the North. According to our spies, the majority of the vampire armies had already been sent there to defend their borders. As power in the South has dwindled, we will attack it tonight. ”All four of Carissa’s subordinates as well as fellow fighters thought about her words and agreed. However, Quintessa is stil
“Roar!”“Roar!”Stunned, Carissa watches as dozens of untamed dogs rush towards them from all directions all of a sudden.One of the dogs leapt into the air and pounced on Carissa.Carissa pulled out her sword and swung it towards the oncoming wild dogs.Blood splashed onto her white coloured robe when the dog’s body was split into two.However, Carissa didn’t stop there as more wild dogs pounced on her.Militiades and his two friends were also busy fighting the wild dogs. Soon after, Ulrica, Ingo and therefore the remaining hunters joined them.The Tane’s family stood still and watched this scene smugly.They gritted their teeth in excitement and couldn’t wait for the wild dogs to tear the hunters apart.Quintessa swung her sword towards the 2 oncoming wild dogs and turned around to see Carissa, who was battling 6 dogs that were surrounding her.“Your Highness!”Quintessa was about to run and help her and didn’t notice the oncoming dogs behind her.“Agh!”Quintessa screamed in pain wh
PLAK!A loud sound of someone being slapped rang through the huge mansion.Carissa’s head snapped to the side as blood trickled down her mouth after receiving a solid slap on her face.She bit the inside of her cheek before looking up at the person who slapped her.“Insolent!”“How dare you look at me like that?”“How dare you bring those ‘ghosts’ to mess with us?!”PLAK!Carissa clenched her fist tightly when she received another slap on her face.If she wasn’t tied up, she would have surely landed a punch or two to this blood-sucking fellow.Tisiphone who had gained consciousness watched from the side with smugness on her face.‘Hah! You’re dead today!’The corner of Carissa’s mouth curled up. She glanced at Tisiphone with a tiny glint in her eyes.Even though Tisiphone had gained consciousness, she may not know that Carissa had succeeded in breaking through her mind and planted a seed inside it.That ‘seed’ would slowly grow until Tisiphone became a loyal servant to Carissa.If Tisi
Carissa jumped from the tree and approached the unconscious vampire. She had flicked a paralyzing needle in his direction hidden in her sleeves.She squatted and put her right palm on the vampire’s chest. Blue fire surges from her palms and spreads to the vampire’s entire body. She watched with fascination as it turned into ashes.Suddenly, a small sphere ball, like a bead, floats into the air and enters Carissa’s forehead before it disappears.Carissa’s eyes flashed blue and she felt her body become stronger.She stood up and smiled wickedly before making her way through the forest and eliminating the vampires who still haven’t given up on searching for her.Although her senses of smell weren’t functioning very well because of the rain, she still could use her hearing senses.It would be better if she could smell her enemy but guess, hearing their movements is enough.The rain is quite nosy. But, Carissa had a higher degree of hearing senses.In half an hour, the army of vampires in t
“Ugh!”She was still in a state of bliss when pain radiated from her chest and made Carissa spurt out blood from her mouth.She wiped her mouth and took a quick look at the unconscious Aischylos on the ground.‘It’s good that you’re still alive.’Carissa didn’t let Heidrich rest after his fierce battle. She needed to kill him fast.She was still speeding towards him when she saw a black shadow appearing above her.Within seconds, Carissa found herself inside a net that was held by four vampires.She was about to use her fire to burn the net when her power bounced back and hit her.“Argh!”Carissa clutched her burning hand with a pained look on her face.Not giving up, she tried it one more time but received the same result.She reached towards her foldable sickle on her boot when she heard a chuckle, “Give it up. The net is embedded with magic.”“Ma..magic?” Carissa’s eyes widen.“But, how? Magic...witches...they don’t exist!”Heidrich smirked, “Well...It looks like you still haven’t g
Heidrich saw that the werewolves did not give him any response and sneered, “Fine, then. You should be prepared for your doom!”Then, he led the vampires back to a safe place to avoid the sun and asked his men to carry the still-unconscious Aischylos.After the vampires left, Carissa who was in the back, silently retreated into the dark forest. She needed to escape.However, her hope was crushed when she stepped on a branch and made all the werewolves turn towards her.“My friends, it was nice meeting you for the first time. I have something important to do. We’ll meet again if we have the chance in the future. Bye!”Then, she sprints into the woods at a fast speed. However, half of her speed was restrained by the net wrapping around her body.She had sprinted forward for five minutes, but she didn’t hear any sound of the werewolves chasing her at all.Did that mean they let her go?With this thought, Carissa slowed down her pace. Soon, she saw the exit of the forest and a bright light
For a moment, there was a brief silence between them. None of them spoke, but they were staring at each other.No.More like, observing.Carissa found him attractive and Leroy did too. However, there was no crazy heartbeat as gossiped by their mated friends.Leroy was annoyed by his own thought. He never thought of having a mate. He alone was enough.Carissa was the same, she didn't need a mate as she believed she could have her own life.Both of them thought that having a relationship was too messy and that having a mate was a weakness.They shivered when they recalled the smitten look on their mated friends. Their mated friends say that having a mate made their life feel complete and they were stronger together.If only Carissa and Leroy knew how similar their thoughts were."You're not a vampire, why are your eyes red?" Leroy asked.Carissa rolled her eyes, "You are not a witch, why are your eyes purple?"Leroy shot her a cold look.Yeah. He's not a witch. But, why are his eyes purp
Leroy took her back to the previous fighting place between Heidrich and the werewolves.The werewolves had set up a camp and were currently sitting in five groups. All of them were sitting around the fire, chatting and grilling meat that they hunted a few hours ago.Some even dared to take out bottles of hidden alcohol and drink openly.The atmosphere was lively. None of them cares for Leroy who was holding Carissa on his shoulder.As for Carissa, a small bubble from her nose popped out as she snored. Leroy went back to his camp slowly and made Carissa feel drowsy along the way.The fatigue from fighting all day beat her and helped her fall asleep in seconds.She was still dreaming happily when Leroy threw her inside his camp unceremoniously and woke her up."Ugh! Damn, Leroy! Can't you be a gentleman for a second? My back is broken!" she sat up and snarled at him.Leroy watched her rubbing her back and curled his lips. He believes this woman must be talking nonsense again."Don't Fret
