"I thought I could at least spare your life!"
"Pardon me(Cough), but...I don't need your sparing."
"Is that so?"
Uriel beats Willow with a whip. Clutching the mat on the floor and biting his teeth strongly, Willow tries to endure the pain. But he miserably fails in it and blood gushes out of his mouth. However, Uriel's hand doesn't stop. It keeps working in a rhythmic way, drawing several red lines over Willow's bareback. Willow keeps up with the treatment since he knows well that Uriel will stop soon.
It’s as expected.
Uriel starts huffing miserably and drops the whip on the floor. There's a painful look over his face. He grabs the handle o
“Whoa! This mansion is really old. Didn’t think he would be using it till now.” Ario gets out of the car, scratching his head and wondering about how Edward likes to live in a horror mansion. However, he isn’t hesitating to get inside because of its dead look. The fear of meeting his ancient enemy is eating him from within. Poor Ario, nobody is paying any heed to him now that their focuses are on somewhere else."Only God knows about Ed's mood…" Alan murmurs fearfully. Shielding himself with the car's door, he tries to save him from getting beaten up since Alan has entered Edward's mansion along with the persons whom he wants to meet the least now! But what the emergency could be for Edward to sound all restless, is a mystery for Alan."Why're you standing there?" Ario calls out to Alan who
"Lady Fiona, sorry for the disturbance. But I would like to…""We’re alone now, Oliver.""Pardon me, I can't deceive my master."Fiona observes Oliver with her saddened eyes. He's standing by the door while bowing his head as if he's restricting himself from crossing the line. She wants to rush to him and hold him in her embrace, forcing him to at least look at her. However, that would be impolite towards his ideals. Thus, she holds back her desires for now and asks him, "What brings you here?"Fiona has been reading a document for a while now and she acts concentrating on it again, keeping her ears wide open for Oliver. But she hasn’t prepared herself for what she's about to hear.
"Try to concentrate. You can feel me." "...That's…. Erm...a weird way to put it." "If you fail then we will try with Green dragon," says Purple dragon who is leading the ceremony for Erin to connect their souls with hers. Erin doesn’t know whether it’s going to work or not but there's no harm giving it a try. She recalls the blue dragon stating that if she can connect her soul even with one of them then they can easily transfer their energy to her, the similar power that she had used during her last battle. Erin couldn’t handle that abundant energy since she’s physically weak. Especially after Edward starts drinking her blood, she keeps feeling nauseous over time. However, she still can’t help but love him dearly. For some reason, Erin can feel the warmth of Edwa
"What're we going to ask him?" "What else? Of course, how to wake Erin up!" "That's all?! That damn old man is trying to kill his daughter! What about that, huh?" "We aren't sure about that yet." "Yeah, right!" Edward and Alan face outside the windows, ignoring one another when Kevin is quietly driving the car. He can't think of a way to break the awkward silence as if a cold war is going on. That's when he recalls an important matter that makes him ask Edward , "Sir, have you booked the tickets to Romania?" "...Yeah…" Edward politely replies while he quietly observes the scenery.
"This is so boring…" "Then why the hell are you here?" Tina scowls at Megan before striking her back with her piercing words, "Why?! Do I need your permission?" Megan stays quiet without answering it. She looks away from Tina who is glaring at her and writing a script in her head for the ongoing debate. Preparing herself well, Tina waits for Megan to talk back to her, but that fortunate moment never occurs. Because it gets interrupted by Ario. "Now, now, ladies! Beauties like you shouldn’t have catfights. Your charms are fading away in the process, don't you agree?" he says, hanging a sly smile on his face. "Who...the hell are yo
A while ago, Erin's room before she jumps into the fight…."What.…what's going on?!" Venessa asked Serena while trembling to death as she secured Erin's unconscious body in her embrace.The outcry of unknown beings and chaotic sounds coming from the first floor was causing her to shiver. However, Serena looked calm, focusing on something as her eyes shone brightly. She started to sweat profusely and answered in a quivery voice, "I~I don't… know!""What?""I...I mean...I can't read anyone’s mind! As if something is blocking the way…" after replying to Venessa, Serena immediately closed all the doors and windows of the room. Her weak body moved on its own and shaky hands tried to be as
"So, you're claiming that these monsters are the vampires who have gone missing?""Yes!"Ario’s solid response forces Megan to back off from the investigation. She stands beside Julius quietly as she runs again through the incident from earlier. Ian and other injured vampires are now receiving treatment, so the second floor is occupied. On the other hand, Erin and the others have captured the monsters that have attacked the mansion and caused chaos.While Ario is being thoroughly questioned after his proclamation that his missing clan members are among those beasts, Aidan is trying his best to cure the wounded ones. So far, Ario is at a disadvantage since those monsters are the reason behind this terrible situation. At least that's what Megan thought until her eyes met Oliver'
"No! Please, don't do it! Give me another chance." "Asking something impossible to a devil…Tch! I thought you had some sense, but I was mistaken." "I'm not ready. Please! This will be the last!" "Enough!" Orus doesn't give Uriel a chance to speak further. Unable to bear to see his failure with his own eyes, Uriel closes his eyes. But the shadows have witnessed everything. The way Orus spreads Uriel's mouth and enters his body is surprising enough for an old man to receive a heart attack. This scene is the worst of those horror stories that a baby hears from his mother at night. The walls can barely hide the terrifying screams from the vampires outside the room. Blood has coloured the floor red while Uriel keeps choking. His continuous coughing has covered the silent room into a hospital cabin. As if an old man is horribly sick! He grips his throat which is paining badly until Orus fully takes control over him. Uriel gets up carefully although his legs are giving up. Cracking
Dracula Castle, Romania. A few days later after ending the war…The lords have gathered to discuss an important issue and that is “Who will be the next Count Lord?” Erin isn’t interested in it at all. She’s just happy to see Edward and others are fine. Even Ian has recovered from his injuries. So there’s no need to be getting involved furthermore after hearing the hateful words that are thrown at her. Moreover, some people don’t wish her to become their master. Erin glares at Raphael who can barely hold his grin. Uriel, the culprit behind this ruckus, is sitting beside him and grumbling about being chained. His punishment will be decided today. However, it doesn’t seem like he will be receiving the death penalty, thanks to certain someone. It doesn’t matter to Erin. Although she agrees with the fact that Uriel is the reason behind the war, she can’t shake off the feeling that her very existence is also a threat to the whole community. That’s why she has made up her mind! "My decis
-Howard’s dead! Do you realise what it means? He’s no longer with us! Will you take responsibility for him?... This! THIS WASN’T OUR FIGHT, TO BEGIN WITH! Why do we have to suffer? A man shouts in anger before he bursts into crying. Obviously, he’s frustrated as much as he’s sad about losing someone important to him. He wishes to keep complaining, but his words are getting stuck in his throat. Some comforting voices float around the air and make their way to Erin’s ears. She doesn’t know for how long she has been sleeping, but it feels like ages now that her muscles are sore. Although she can barely open her eyes, she tries to find out the owner of that angry voice. However, she fails repeatedly and gives up in the end. -Bill is right! We’re dragged into this mess when we aren’t supposed to be involved. A girl’s voice! It’s familiar and yet distant all of a sudden. Not long ago, this person was the one who stood up for Erin! Then…why is it sounding strange to her? After all, what’s
"Le..let me..GO!""Fufufu! How does it feel to get crushed on? Is it amusing?" Rowan, who is now possessed by Orus, gets closer to Erin's face which has turned red since she can't breathe. While trying her best to escape from his grip, Erin has no choice but to listen to his nonsense.Surprisingly, Rowan stops talking all of a sudden and keeps observing her before saying, "So weak! Can't think of a reason why you were chosen to bear the 'Dragon's fate'. So pitiful for someone who upholds both the power of God and the Devil. Tch!" "What's this stupid demon talking about?" Erin isn’t insane to wonder about such lousy conversation while her lifeline is about to get cut. She keeps thinking of a way to get out but finds none. Only the crazy laughter of Rowan rings in her ears as he exclaims in joy, "I'm feeling so good right now!" His grip becomes tighter than before as he sniffs Erin's neck in a swoop. "Delish!" "I sa...id...Fuck Off!" "SHHH!!!! Tch! Ahh...my ears! Can't you scream a
"Do you think they can handle it?" "You worry a lot, old man. Relax! Master can finish the enemy with one blow!" "If it was that easy, I wouldn't have worried about it." "Sheesh! It's hard to ensure you. Well, we'll see that for later. For now, I've to take you to a safe place. Otherwise, the master will kill me!" Bill runs faster towards the heart of the forest. Soon the battle ground vanishes from Julius's eyes as he looks back to monitor the situation and yet the sound of clashing swords isn't disappearing. As if the whole world is bearing witness to today's incident. Julius couldn't help it when he was forced to leave Edward's side. Rowan inflicted a heavy injury on him which almost caused him to faint due to loss of blood. The terror in Edward's eyes is unforgettable! Even his men were terrorized. Rowan was extremely powerful as if the news of him being sick was nothing but a nonsense spouted as a joke. His physical strength was surpassing the whole clan. It was nothing li
"This is getting out of hand!""We should lure them towards the open field. The training ground is narrow enough to make moving hard for us.""But what to do about this rapid fire?!" Ario shouts in irritation. He can barely block the bullets with a thin shield and yet he's trying his best. The two other men are also struggling. Erin can't blame them when she isn’t even in shape to fight anymore. Rather, she says, "I've got an idea. Let's split! One party will distract them while the other makes a run for the field."After a small pause, Ario replies with a soft nod, "Sounds great to me. I'll help you to climb.""No, wait!" Erin disrupts Ario who is about to pick her up and suggests, pointing at the two men, "Let them move before us."The two men seem bewildered. However, there's no time to spare in argument. They both agree immediately and make a long jump for the roof while Ario and Erin are backing them up. The enemies are trying to corner them more than before. Due to the lack of
"Lan! Is there any way where I can kill Orus without harming him?" "Not that it's impossible, but you’re not capable of pulling that off yet." "Meaning?" "Simple! Without the help of Mandira, you can't do it." Erin recalls her time when she was stuck in that endless world. Among those seven dragons, Mandira was the one who didn’t have any kind of supernatural power that could be seen and yet her power surpassed others. She's a dragon who uses her powers through tarot cards. It may seem funny but she has the ability to see the opposite side of her cards and pull out a suitable one. Her dragon powers are installed in those cards, so she can make wishes come true by using them. Erin had the opportunity to witness her power. Unlike Orus or other people who can manipulate someone with the help of words or other means, Mandira is unable to do that. When she learnt that her powers didn’t have any physical form, she tried the tarot cards as an easy means. Her mother was a gypsy and she u
“Whoa, what’s that?” “Is that Lord Uriel? Why’s he flying?!” “Don’t tell me! After Master Rowan, now another legend?” “Unlike the master, his wings are so black and shiny. Just like a bat. Isn’t that gorgeous?” “Yeah! But, doesn’t he look kind of different than usual? Is he the one who just broke the underground dungeon where that woman is kept?” “You bet!” “What could he be doing there?” “Don’t know, but…Something doesn’t feel right.” The castle guards are fussing
"My lord, you should leave now. There's a hidden door behind the second staircase which will lead you to the secret dungeon." Oliver whispers to Edward while fighting nearby. He further assures, "We'll be watching your back. So, hurry!" Edward grins at him. Taking his last line as a joke, he says, "Rather watching my back, you should hold your men at first. You look like you’re struggling quite a bit here to need my men's support." Oliver can't believe Edward acting arrogantly when someone's life's in jeopardy. He remembers a saying, "Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand" and it truly applies to him. Unfortunately, he can't say it to his face! Composing himself, Oliver politely replies to Edward, "My lord, you’re right. I'm unworthy and that's why I need some time to strengthen the bond between me and my men. Would you kindly
“Where did I keep it?”“Hurry up, Oliver!!”“Can’t you shut your mouth for a while?”“TCH!”Keeping the door slightly open, Ario gets out of the room to guard it. Thankfully, everyone is busy discussing the rare vampire that they don’t have the time in hand to look after the castle. The rummaging sound through the papers is irritating Ario, but he can’t make a sound while Oliver is busy looking for the documents. They’re from Willow who is known as Uriel’s informer. Or maybe was! He’s missing since Oliver left the castle, not even a trace of his dead body!It’s surpris
