*VICKY*I had never seen this dagger before, not even as an image or description in a book.But then again, if it weren't for Jaydan, I wouldn't have had access to a holy relic of the Lycan to begin with."You can easily take the holy relic, lose it, and still live despite that. You really can't be an ordinary person, Jaydan.""Hahaha, it's nothing special. My dad happens to be the leader of my clan."Damn! I thought this kid's identity was unusual from the beginning, but I didn't expect him to be the son of the Wolf Lord. The Lycan were different from us, their status was based on strength, and blood only accounted for a small percentage in their society. Any individual who thought he had the ability for it could challenge the Wolf Lord for his position.Every clan was like this, so just imagine it. If those people knew that the son of the Wolf Lord was a dog, the entire clan might be taken out. The pressure on the Wolf Lord had to be more than just heavy. Jaydan see
*VICKY*"Let's not think about this matter for now. Just rest up these next couple of days. I'll have the bakery fixed up soon, so go to sleep.""Goodnight, Vicky...""Goodnight..."The two boys had been through so much today. They needed to rest. The issue with the gang was something I had to handle on my own too. However, I wasn't worried about the bakery, the explosion damage was minimal, and it should repair itself overnight.After all, it was a magical space belonging to another dimension. Conventional explosives in this world had a very limited effect on it.The following day, I packed my things and headed to the bakery. Lars was already inside.As I entered, everything seemed to be back to normal. The kitchen equipment, cabinets, and even the trays for customers to choose bread from were undamaged.The only thing left to regret were the piles of burnt bread."Oh, Vicky, are you okay? It was quite a commotion last night.""Lars, are you serious? Something like
*VICKY*Here they come! The people who wrecked the shop saw that I opened the bakery as usual today and couldn't hold back their agitation.For now though, I didn't plan to alert them. I closed up the store, locked the door as usual, and walked towards the subway station.After crossing an intersection, I stopped and quietly turned back, hiding in the shadows of a wall to see what these people wanted to do.With my keen hearing, I overheard their conversation."Are you sure you didn't see wrong? Bro, this isn't a joke.""Absolutely, almost everyone in the Queens saw it. I was almost arrested and interrogated by the police myself."One of them touched the door of the bakery and seemed to imagine a huge explosion that happened here yesterday. No wonder. Ordinary people had never seen a house that could repair itself."But, now it seems like nothing happened here. How am I supposed to explain this when I go back?""I don't know, man. I don't know! The bomb was personally
*VICKY*The person who had just left was very tall. I didn't get a good look at his face, but I had a feeling he might be the leader of this group, maybe even the Rubin I was looking for. I had to follow that car but I was also curious about the goods in the warehouse, so I decided to come back later for further investigation.When I was about to chase after the car though, a young thug came running into the warehouse, shouting loudly. The night wind carried his words to my ears. "Boss! Boss Rubin! Something's happened!""What's wrong? Don't panic. Take it easy."A young man standing near the doors wearing a baseball shirt and looking rather stylish answered him. So, this man was Rubin. Wasn't he a bit young to be the boss? I thought this Rubin guy would be older. What a surprise!"The bakery–that shop is still open today...""What did you say?"Rubin seemed nervous when he heard the thug mention my bakery. He quickly waved his hand and let the person enter the warehouse,
*VICKY*Two thugs slowly opened the door of the container. It was dark, too dark for even someone like me to see inside. However, a pungent smell emanated from the now open container. When my eyes adjusted, my expression immediately twisted into shock.Inside the container were people dressed in rags, men, women, and even children. They were covered in dirt, and it was unclear whether it was bloodstains or some other kind of filth. The smell inside immediately told me that their living conditions were deplorable.The people inside the container didn't react at all when they saw the door open. Their eyes were empty as if they had been subjected to some kind of severe mental trauma. Some people even instinctively scratched the thick steel walls of the container.Probably due to being knocked around a bit from the body I threw at the container earlier.Their smell, beyond the stench, immediately made me recognize that these people were all Kindred. My God! I hadn't seen so many
*LEON*When I last saw Vicky, my soul had followed after her. Now sitting in this office, I felt like a soulless shell, even though my situation was already precarious.Conrad's deal was just a scam. He didn't even care about Osip's wedding. From the beginning, his goal was Vicky, and now he wouldn't let her go no matter what I did.Long ago, Conrad acquired a lot of loot by supporting the Allied Holy Order. Those captured Kindred became his test subjects, and he became obsessed with immortality.But the purity of the blood of the lower-level Kindred was too poor to satisfy his needs, so he targeted Vicky. I made things too easy for him. Leaving her would not make my father give up his plan, nor could it be delayed. That meant I had to change my own plans.In addition to this matter, Arthur was also pressuring me with every step I took. It had been him that wanted to take away my hotel, not my father, who had no interest in my small business at all. He got tired of playing th
*LEON*"I'm fine, Leon. Is there something you wanted to see me about?"Vicky's face was expressionless as if I were a stranger. I tried to read her mind, but all I could see was sadness. What happened recently?I didn't even know how to comfort her.I took out the ointment she gave me."Can I come in and talk to you?"Vicky thought for a moment before nodding. I walked into the room, which was as neat and tidy as ever, except for the curtains, which were tightly drawn. I knew Vicky loved the sun but what happened to her? How long had she been like this?Even if she was a member of the Blood Hunters with a superhuman body, her spirit was not much stronger than that of a mortal.There were so many things I wanted to know. There was so much that I wanted to ask her."Vicky, why did you give me this?"I gestured to the ointment on the table."Didn't Jaydan make it clear to you? I thought long and hard about it, Leon, and it was selfish of me to mark you. I didn't thi
*VICKY*Leon was sucking hard on my most sensitive parts. His tongue frantically satisfying my G-spot. His powerful palms slapped my hips with perfect strength and rhythm. He knew my preferences. I was like a doll in his hands, at his mercy.My hands hooked around his neck and my lips were against his ear, each noise making him shiver. Suddenly, I grabbed him by the collar and tore his shirt in half in one go. I stroked his toned chest, then pushed him onto the dining room table in one fluid motion, not wasting any time.The vase and cutlery that had been on it were knocked to the floor, but I didn't care about that. I climbed on top of him and sank down in one go, shoving his already stiff rod inside of me. The instant pleasure made me scream out."Ah! Baby, you're so good, mhmmm..."I moaned as I moved. It was as if I was riding a stallion, making my body rise and fall uncontrollably as I bounced on his member. I forgot about the unpleasantness that happened earlier, forgot
*Leon*I knew Vicky had to leave at some point. Our sweet time together couldn't last forever, but I didn't expect that moment to come so quickly. Although I knew that moment was bound to come, and although I had prepared myself mentally, I still felt lost when it really happened. It seemed like something had been taken away from my heart, and it suddenly became empty.I was actually a particularly timid person who was afraid of loss. The more I remembered those beautiful times, I couldn't help how sad I felt because of them. But now there was no time for me to drown in such emotions. After Vicky left, I immediately arranged a flight and returned to New York in a hurry. After that night, Jaydan never appeared in the office again. I heard from Vicky that they were, in a sense, a similar kind.As a normal human being, I had become a minority instead.Now I felt that the answers to all those questions should be within my family. But with my current situation, not
*Vicky*I stepped forward and the members of the Elder's Church who'd been waiting on the sidelines draped me in a ritual robe. Afterwards they would then drive a long nail into my heart, which was stained with the blood of Lord Primogenitor, allowing me to maintain my strength while falling into slumber.Kristen pulled the switch next to my sculpture. The sculpture slowly descended, and a pure white coffin rose up. I stepped into the coffin, waiting for them to drive a long nail into my heart. If they could do it skillfully, I wouldn't feel the pain.I closed my eyes and waited for the moment to come. But at that moment, the entrance to the hall of the Sanctuary suddenly became noisy. It seemed someone had barged in."Silence! Don't you know where this place is? Don't disturb the slumber of Lord Primogenitor and the Kindreds!"Kristen tried to silence his men when the guards at the door came rushing in to report."Lord Tybirus, we have visitors.""Wh
*Vicky*I couldn't believe my eyes. The diary clearly recorded the process of the experiment done back then. I read every line of words on it attentively."We conducted experiments on the experimental subjects with a variety of drug combinations. The vast majority of reagents caused the direct death of the subjects. Only reagent No. 69 worked. The toxins in the blood of the subject were finally removed after repeated injections, and the subject was restored to its human identity. After follow-up investigations for half a year, the subject's mental condition was normal, and he was well integrated into society. This was really an exciting moment. After centuries of exploration, our research finally yielded results...""The most crucial formula for Reagent No. 69 is the Mist Lotus, the Holy Water, and..."The pages that recorded the key materials was blurred and unrecognizable at the bottom because of its age. What was the last constituent element?I was a little
*Vicky*I took a closer look and saw that it was the familiar face of a middle-aged man."How did you find me?""I followed your bat here."The Messenger pointed to the reconnaissance bat on his head. It was originally placed near my house in New York to be responsible for guarding. If there was something important, the Messenger could use blood to communicate directly with it and ask it to locate me.I put away my claws and looked upstairs. Leon hadn't woken up yet."If you have something to say, then hurry up and say it so you can leave already."My tone was a little anxious. Now that The Messenger had appeared here, there was a high probability that the Elder's Church already knew about what I'd done.The Messenger took out a letter inside a black envelope, on which was stamped a blood-red seal with a flame emblem. The moment I saw that emblem, I immediately understood what it meant."I'm sorry, my lord. Please return quickly. Before that
*Vicky*"Leon, we discussed this last time. Right now, the situation at hand isn't over. Even if we run away, they'll find us. I have to stay.""Alright then, I'll stay with you.""No, Leon, you still have things to do, and your mother wouldn't want to see you waste your life so casually.""You're wrong. During this period, I realized we were all caught in a misunderstanding. You and I always want to carry everything for each other, but we've never thought love is a matter of two people. No matter what happens, we need to face it together. Therefore, I won't leave today. We'll never be separated in the future."Leon grabbed my hand. I stared at the determined look in his eyes and finally let go of all my worries. I nodded."Okay…okay, just as you said, let's go to a new place and start over. No matter what happens, I won't leave you again."I leaned on his shoulder, the happiness sweeping away my exhaustion.Suddenly, a car hurried to the entranc
*Vicky*Arthur was afraid of death, and now he was so frightened by me that he couldn't say a word.Of course, I was happy to see him like this. I waved my right hand with First Snow and viciously pierced his other leg. In an instant, the freezing air sealed his whole leg. He howled loudly in pain, and now the unbeatable king of the underground was like a lost dog, unable to even escape."Laugh again. Go on, why did you stop?"I slowly slashed his clothes with my claws."No, don't do this! Please let me go!""Let you go? There should be many people who've begged you just like that, right? Have you spared them? You didn't even spare your own brother for the sake of profit, and you wantonly take innocent lives in order to gain your father's favor."Swish. I flicked my claws and tore a piece of flesh from his leg."Ahhh!"Painful screams echoed through the warehouse, but no one could come to his aid now."Do you remember the boy named Lou?
*Vicky*Men poured in endlessly from all around the containers and docks, forming what seemed to be an endless ocean of people. Despite that, I enjoyed the thrill of the kill. I didn't know how long it had been since I last had such a feeling.The crowd wouldn't stay a crowd for long though. After I killed a few people and created an opening, I flew to the window and used the echoes of the guns for the scout bats to find the snipers who were hidden and shooting at me. I appeared in front of them in an instant, and they, who had thought they were in a safe place, looked at me in surprise as I rushed towards them. The last scene they saw was me waving First Snow to take their heads off.I wandered in Shadow Form and appeared behind them silently, slicing their bodies one by one like cutting a watermelon, and after licking the blood from my lips, I began to get more excited.After cleaning up the borders of the place, I returned to the warehouse and found that the grou
*Vicky*I packed up my things, took First Snow with me, and changed into a track suit that was easy to move in.Tonight, everything would finally end. "Leon, if I come back alive, I'll be there to see you, and if I don't make it through the night, I want you to be happy and take Osip and go live somewhere where no one knows you."I took a deep breath, zipped up my backpack, and walked out of the room.Just as I was about to enter the shadows, Jaydan suddenly called out to me."Vicky! Vicky, wait a minute. Don't go yet!"He came running towards me, panting and looking a little panicked."Something's wrong. Leon's been taken!""What? How did this happen?""A large group of people, supposedly Arthur's men, came to the hotel today. They said they were there to take over the hotel business and forced me to hand over all my management access codes. I didn't give them up though, and found a chance to transform and escape.""Do you know where h
*Leon*"Are you wondering how we found out you were scheming something?" Conrad continued, "I know about everything you've done since you arrived here, including that smart-ass little tunnel of yours. Did you really think I didn't know? I knew about it before your mother passed away, and I left it there on purpose."Why? Why couldn't I read the thoughts of the people around me? Not just Conrad, but also Arthur and his subordinates—I couldn't read any of them. How was this possible? They couldn't have professionally trained everyone, could they?Conrad saw my puzzled expression and seemed extremely pleased."Hahaha! Well, well, well, curious as to why your little trick doesn't work anymore, aren't you?"He casually pulled one of his subordinates over and showed me the electronic bracelet on his wrist."This is a blocking bracelet, a small device recently developed by our scientists. When we wear it, we can truly become invisible. Even those alien creatures'
