*VICKY*Miss Not-so-friendly was as unfriendly as ever, but I knew that was how Sylvia was. She was actually a nice person, at least she showed it with her expression when she was mad at me.Jaydan helped me take my luggage inside. This abandoned farm was bought by Jaydan not long ago and was originally used as a safe house, but he heard about me and volunteered to give me a place to live.What I was about to do was dangerous. He offered me shelter and there was a good chance that he would be involved.I couldn't express my gratitude, but Jaydan had never owed me anything, and now I owed him a huge favor."Do you like the house? If you don't like it, you can call me anytime. I live not too far away."The barn that was originally used for stacking hay on the farm was also converted into a residence by them, and it was just a few hundred meters away from the building I was living in.I looked around the room. The decoration inside was very simple, a rustic style with a prim
*VICKY*Jennifer told me everything she knew. A hundred years ago, the Knightly family became rich from trading and then started a more lucrative trade, human trafficking. They started by selling slaves from Africa and South America where they learned about Aliens. They were surprised to find that one of their products was a creature that could not only switch freely between Lycan and human forms but also had a much higher physical capacity than humans. The general iron cage simply could not confine them.Relying on the spectacle of the creature's existence they attempted to sell them. Later, a mad scientist paid a high price for the Lycan, making them a lot of money, while the patriarch at the time kept vigilant and sent someone to infiltrate the scientist's institute. He wanted to find out what other value the creature had.During a five-year-long infiltration, the patriarch continued to receive a surprisingly long list of research materials. It turned out that the scientist in
*Leon*I slept soundly, probably because I hadn't felt this safe in a long time, and with Vicky by my side, I was able to let go of all my worries and fall asleep. I slept until noon the next day until the sun shined directly onto my face.I opened my eyes with difficulty and looked at the mess in the room, still not satisfied with the passion from yesterday. I couldn't help but want more of Vicky. "Vicky?"Had she gotten up to make breakfast? But why couldn't I hear her?"Vicky, where are you?"I got up and scanned the apartment, but found nothing but the stuff we smashed yesterday. I noticed that half of Vicky's clothes had been taken from the closet. Had she left or something?No way. If she left, she would've told me. I subconsciously picked up my phone to see if there were any messages from her, but after going through a bunch of unread messages and emails, I didn't see any messages from her.At this point, I suddenly had a bad feeling in my heart. She wouldn't ha
*Leon*With that idea in mind, I drove to Knightly Manor. The people here knew me, so I didn't encounter much resistance as I entered, until I reached the underground level of the manor where there was an odd-looking door with two guards standing watch."Sir, you can't enter here.""Move aside. Don't you know who I am?""We know who you are, Mr. Leon. But the master has given us orders that we cannot allow anyone unrelated to the project to enter. So, please don't make things difficult for us."Their attitude was firm and it was clear that brute force wouldn't work. I had to find another way.There were cameras everywhere in the manor, so Conrad would quickly find out if I stayed too long. I had to move quickly."Well then, have a good day," I said nonchalantly as if nothing was amiss.I strolled around as if I belonged here. The manor was originally used as a vacation spot for members of the family. I knew it well because I spent my entire child
*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'
*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
*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*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?
*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
