Inside the apartment, two people who didn’t fall to the ground rushed toward Ely. Desperate and terrified, Ely tried to run away. Because her bloodline pressure wasn’t working against them, she had no chance to win.
She hasn’t even trained a bit to fight. Although her physical strength was stronger, it wasn’t that strong, especially against the people in front of her.
But, since this apartment was closed, she was quickly caught against the wall.
“Use it!” One of them looked at another and said.
The next man nodded his head and took out a small bottle. He sprayed some gas on her face but at this moment, she closed her eyes and stopped her breathing altogether.
Ka-cha!
Bang! Zzzzzzz!”
Suddenly, a high-speed energy beam struck one of the vampires and a fist struck another vampire. James who struck the vampire quickly caught Ely and threw her toward Brian.
Thud!
Brian dropped the gun on the ground and caught his daughter. The moment, she landed in his arms, she opened her eyes and tears burst out.
“Daddy…. Waaaaa……”
For the first time, something like this has ever happened to her. She was totally afraid to the point where she was trembling hard.
“Don’t worry, daddy is here. It will be alright.” Brian smiled and patted his daughter’s head. Then, he dropped her to the ground and picked his gun up.
“Ely, do you mind closing your eyes and ears?” Brian smiled at her and asked. But, for some reason, Ely felt her dad was very serious at this moment.
She didn’t know why but Brian didn’t want her to see what was going to happen next. She obediently closed her eyes and closed her ears.
Brian clicked on the screen at the side of his gun and Lily’s voice rang from it. This time her voice was deadly cold, unlike her previous cute voice.
“Vampire Killing Mode- Activated”
Ka-cha!
Bang!
The next moment, he targeted his gun at the vampire who was rushing toward him and shot. His gun released a red energy beam that went straight towards the man.
“No! beta eight, dodge it!” The man who was fighting against James suddenly sensed strange energy from that energy beam and shouted.
But, his roar only distracted that man. So, the energy beam struck him to the ground. For a moment, it looked like the previous attack. Because when it struck him, the vampire managed to stand back and recover with vampire bloodline healing ability.
But, this time when he used his Vampire Bloodline to recover, a red gas started coming out of him. Brian stood in front of Ely so that she won’t see anything even if she wanted to.
He quickly commanded “Lily, put a sound barrier around Ely!”
“Ahhhhhhh!”
Just as the blue barrier covered Ely, a horrible scream came out of him. In front of three people, the vampire was covered with red steam. It wasn’t just normal steam, it was his blood.
It was coming out as steam and slowly his body was aging.
“Ahhhhhhh!” The more steam came out of his body, the more painful it became for him.
The man who was fighting against James realized that the weapon Brian used was some kind of weapon created to destroy the vampire. But, he has never seen it before.
He doesn’t know why there was a weapon like this but humanity never used it. Because although it wouldn’t work against the powerful vampires, it could still prove to be deadly.
“Bastard!” The man freaked out and got angrier. He roared towards Brian and tried to dash before Brian could shoot but he forgot his opponent was a fella that gets stronger as he gets angrier.
Because of the battle, James wasn’t wearing the ring. And, when he saw the hatred in Brian’s eyes, he suddenly remembered the day when Brian’s parents died and he was left alone.
His best friend lost his parents to the vampire and he couldn’t do anything. He was weak. The more he thought about these, the angrier he started to become.
He didn’t notice but his body was releasing red energy around him. So, when the vampire tried to move against Brain, he quickly slammed a kick on his stomach and threw him out of the house, breaking the wall in the process.
James quickly rushed towards the dead vampire who looked like a dried piece of wood and kicked him out of the house as well. Then, he rushed out of the house without even thinking for a moment.
Brian didn’t rush out. He turned towards his daughter and touched her head.
“Be a good girl and stay here alright! Daddy will go out and beat some bad guys.”
Saying so, he stood up and turned around but Ely pulled his pant and said “I’m sorry!”
She knows they came to get her and they would never dare to hurt her. But, the same thing won’t apply to Brian and others. They might get killed if the opponent is too strong.
Brian was slightly stunned when she apologized. He turned back and patted her head once more.
“Do you know about the incident that happened five years ago?”
Hearing his question, Ely suddenly felt dreadful and tears fell down her eyes. How could she not know? She had checked it already. His parents were slaughtered by vampires, the very own race she belongs to.
“But, I don’t hate you. I will never hate my daughter no matter which race you belong to. For me, you are my daughter and that’s all it matters. And, no matter who tries to do anything to you, I will kill his entire family.”
When she heard those words, she raised her head and got shocked when she saw his eyes. It was filled with hatred but she couldn’t feel any hatred for herself.
“Now, be a good girl and stay here!” Brian said and stood up. He was a little worried about Charlotte and James. Just as he moved away, Ely asked “Daddy, do you think mother didn’t come to you because she was afraid that you will hate her?”
When she said that, his movement stopped for a moment. But, only for a moment. He continued walking as he replied.
“I don’t know and I don’t care.”
Hearing his answer, she got a little terrified. If he had hated her, at least he has some kind of feelings for her. But, he didn’t even hate her. It means her mother really means nothing to him.
It was terrible because she wanted him to love her. She wanted them to be together and live as a husband and wife. But, now, she felt like she was drifting, even more, farther from her goal.
?(O)??? Brian didn’t know what she was thinking. But, he knew she wanted them to be together. Brian truly didn’t know how to feel about her. She kept the secret of him being a father for eight years.
And, it was during the time when his parents were murdered by the vampires. He couldn’t bear to love her but he couldn’t hate her either. After all, she is the mother of his child.
And, that child was someone he truly love. Now, it wasn’t just his guilt for not being a proper father. He genuinely feels how a father feels about his daughter.
But, Brian already has a lover and she was Charlotte. Now, unless Charlotte decides to leave him, he can’t love another woman even if he wanted to.
Brian shook his head and stopped thinking about her as he closed the door. He didn’t take the elevator rather he jumped from the apartment. It was reckless but he didn’t care.
His body was strong enough to handle such a fall. But, Brian wouldn’t be careless, he quickly commanded.
“Lily, activate the Jet Boots!”
Suddenly, his boots shoot out the energy beam and deaccelerate his fall. But, when he reached a few meters above the ground, the energy beam suddenly disappeared.
It was a little unexpected but Brian had already predicted it. Because he knew there was very less charge remained in his boots. He looked at the group of vampires fighting against James and Charlotte.
In his eyes, he had already targeted nearly three of them. He held the gun in his left arm and landed on his knees and right palm. But, he didn’t land this way randomly.
As soon as he landed, his body suddenly released purple energy. It was his mana. Reaching level ten, he can finally use some amount of mana.
Under his palm, the mana circulates out into a giant symbol that covers him with a purple aura. He raises his head and stares at the group of vampires who also noticed his arrival and muttered.
“Dark Magic Skill”
“Slaughtering Crows!”
Caw!
