Chapter 516 - 516 A Friend or Enemy?

516 A Friend or Enemy?

Michael took out the dagger from the drawer and stood up. Rafael followed without any weapon but his fangs were already peeking through his mouth as he licked his lips and took his stance.

Without sparing another word, Michael ran to him and attacked his chest with his dagger but Rafael held it with his bare arms before it could touch his chest.

Michael used all his force but it was nothing in front of Rafael who pushed Michael away and threw the dagger on the other side. He stared at Michael with a raised brow as if asking “was this his plan to win against him! It was pathetic!”

Michael gritted his teeth as he flipped and stood on his feet again. He had another dagger on his hands already. All of them were covered with Beryllium but it did not matter anymore.

“Since how long did you want to kill me?” he asked looking at the beryllium on the dagger when Michael smirked,

“For an eternity. I wanted to kill you the moment i have met you for the first time.” It was more than one and a half decades ago when Michael was just a young boy. He remembered meeting him for the first time when his uncle had brought him after the death of his father.

“Why?” Michael did not reply anymore as he threw the dagger on his forehead and attacked his abdomen at the same time with his kick but Rafael held his feet and bent his head when the dagger hit the wall behind him.

“It is a lost fight, Michael. You can not win against me.” he warned the man who looked older than him but he was six decades older to the human. “It will be better that you accept defeat.” he warned but Michael ignored him as he attacked again.

Nathan sighed. It was a one side fight. Rafael was not even trying to fight, if he would, Michael would have no chance.

.....

He was attacking again and again but Rafael was easily blocking his every attack.

All the daggers ended up either in his hands or on the walls around him.

Michael pushed him and then took a backflip and then took out another red dagger this time when Rafael raised a brow.

“And here I thought that you are against witches too.” his face was mocking Michael as he gritted his teeth.

“Anything as long as I get rid of you.” he said in a cold voice as he attacked Rafael again. This time holding the dagger tightly and aiming for his heart but Rafael was able to block him easily.

But this time when he touched the dagger, his heart burnt a bit which created a frown on his face.

He was immune to the magic of the witches because of his amulet. And now he had resistance towards beryllium too. How could this red dagger burn him?

“Are you surprised, Rafael?” he smirked and then pushed harder when Rafael let go of the dagger and took a step back.

Michael scoffed and attacked again. This time Rafael did not block the attack but jumped on the wall behind him. He was not slipping from the ball when he held it from his hands and stared at Michael.

“This dagger is made from the ashes that contained the wrath and hatred of all the witches and humans that died from your hands. It can not be blocked by any amulet or power. It had dark magic but your amulet can only block the white magic of the witches.” he explained to the scared man as Rafael checked his hands.

They were not only burnt but it looked like acid was thrown on them. His skin was melting and his flesh could be seen.

He brushed his hands and then jumped on the ground and then glared at Michael who had gotten his confidence back now and was aiming at Rafael heart again.

“You are an ungrateful child. I have always taken care of you and others. I have never killed anyone until it was necessary. I made sure that you all have a place to live, that humans are not deprived of their right to live and they are not killed mercilessly by other vampires.

I created a safe haven for you.” he snarled as he finally attacked Michael with all seriousness. So far he was only playing with the child.

“Ha! You think you are god? Taking the freedom and then returning a part of it is not called mercy!” he spat back as he attacked him again but Rafael was fast this time. He ran three feet away and then ran towards Michael and held his neck.

He raised Michael high in the air when his feet left the ground. He struggled but the grip of Rafael only tightened.

“You are a fool to understand that you can get the freedom you desire when you are so weak.” he mocked the man who was flailing his feet but Michael was not ready to give up. He took a deep breath and then attacked Rafael’s heart this time.

The dagger pierced his skin but before it could go deeper, Rafael used all his force and the man was strangled to death. His eyes widened with shock but Rafael kept pushing him and then smashed him against the wall and his bones broke. He lay limp in his hands. Rafael threw the limp body on the ground and then held the dagger that was stabbed to his heart.

“You forgot one thing Michael, I am already corrupted. You can not corrupt a corrupted being.” he held the dagger tightly and took it out with force.

The blood started to drip from his chest but soon the injury started to heal and the wound disappeared as if it was never there in the first place.

He turned when Nathan flinched and jumped from his place, afraid that he would be next when Rafael looked at the body of Michael and then at him.

“Go and arrange for his funeral, he deserves a proper one!”
