Chapter 166 [Bonus chapter] Should He Kill Rafael

“The arrows are made of Bellarium!” her eyes widened when she realized that it was all a trap to lure them here.

Though vampires were invincible with the strength and power they held in the empire, they only had one weakness, Bellarium. It is a metal that could hurt the vampire like a dagger to humans.

The regeneration capacity of vampires did not work when they were attacked by it which made them frail just like humans.

But Bellarium is a rare metal that was not found in their empire. Only the deeper part of northern frozen land has Bellarium but witches and humans freeze before they reach there, much less digging it and bringing it here.

“I can not believe that father could be this foolish!” Even if they were killed in the attack, her father wouldn’t lose creditability and even be charged by the council for breaking the treaty.

What is he taking such a big risk!

“Tsk! Who would know that it is your father’s doing when three of us would die right here.

Finding how she was chatting casually while still standing there as if waiting for one of the daggers to hit her, his rage knew no bounds. And just when he was about to jump out and save the foolish girl, he saw a pair of hands holding her waist and picking her up in his arms.

The slave that was working as their escort had already held her in his arms and pushed her in the carriage.

“The knights will soon be here, my lord. I request you to lock the door of the carriage to keep yourself and the lady safe.” he muttered as he had already taken out his sword and was cutting the arrows that were coming in their direction but one was not enough to face the whole army even if he was highly trained.

“Stay in here!” She turned her head to look at the vampire who was the prey of all those knights who were shooting at them mercilessly with a frown.

“You are not going, you can not!” She held his hands when he tried to open the door on the other side and glared at him.

“Do you not know what Bellarium could do to you? Even a fool like me knows that it is poison for you.” she shook her head as if she could not control her frustration when she saw him arguing to her. What was he a kid that she needed to babysit at a time like this!

“You can not expect him to handle all of that alone, can you? If you would let him fight, he would die and then they all would come to us eventually. Wouldn’t it be better if i go and fight with him?

What are you taking me as? A kid that could not handle a few arrows!” he held her hands that were holding his wrist tightly and moved her hands away as he stared at her with cold and stern eyes.

She knew he was right, even if the dark warrior was qualified he was alone! But she just could not let him go. She bit her lips and gulped as she knew that she was being a fool.

“If that is the case, i would go and help him until other knights arrive for help!” A look of shock passed his eyes looking at the girl who was scared but still putting on a brave front.

Putting her life at stake to save him! He did not know whether to laugh or cry at her bravery. But her emotions had touched his heart regardless. He could feel the ripple in the frozen lake of his heart again and knew that if he continued to stand there, he would just kiss her without her permission.

“You are treating me too precisely. What have I done to get so much affection from you? Now stay here and wait for me.” This time he did not wait for her to react.

Afraid what would the young girl say this time and make him crazy again, it was better that he would hunt a few pests to calm his mind.

Just as he came out, he stared at the door that locked automatically and took out his gun.

“He is finally out!”

“Yes, ignore that coachman and everyone will attack him at once.”

“Yes, leave no space, he should not be able to survive!” the knights started shouting order to their juniors as all of them attacked at Rafael at once leaving the slave behind.

He took a deep breath as he was having a hard time keeping up with so many attackers. There were more than a dozen and everyone was shooting at once making it difficult to cut all the arrows even when he had fast reflexes.

Taking a deep breath, his eyes swept on the vampire that had both a sword and gun in his hands.

He was cutting the arrows that were coming to him through the sword and shooting the knight that were attacking on him with his gun but he was not that fast in shooting due to continuous arrows.

If there would be someone who would cut the arrows for him when he would aim for the knights, it would take less than half time to shoot all of them.

And then they would be free. If he wants, he can help Rafael and make everything perfect. They complement each other perfectly.

But if he would save Rafael, the man who had killed so many witches, his brother and sister, more than half of his coven.

Wouldn’t it be better if he would let Rafael die than bringing him closer to Hazel hoping that her love would change the demon in him.

His hands clenched into a fist but he did not move from his place.

No one would know if he did not help him. He could always make the excuse that he was injured, that was why he was not able to help when his eyes fell on an arrow of Bellarium under his feet.

“If only…”
