The sun was high above the ruined city. Occasionally, a large creature would step on some zombies without care, making the earth tremble with its every step.
Between two buildings, a group of people hid behind a broken rectangular trash can as they watched the recent, giant chameleon creature walk passed the road.
"Let's all calm down. We can make it to the park." Tracy said from behind and Dexter's pupils glowed bright red as he looked around for any blood signatures.
Not seeing any, he decided to act.
"Let's go. Quickly." Dexter moved out and teleported to a building on the other side of the road and the others ran as they crossed.
'It just doesn't make sense.' Dexter thought as he looked at Kila and Lily who both had glowing golden eyes.
'Why do they become daylighters? The sun power is from me, so how?' Dexter questioned but then he couldn't find anything out.
'Complicated, vampire shit.' He snorted in his mind before he kept walking forward, going towards the park which was not so far away.
After managing to stay away from the large monsters and titans, they finally got to a park which had a bunch of trees around it.
They stayed from a distance to observe.
There were destroyed cars, but there were still ones which looked perfectly fine.
*GRRRR...!!*
A loud growling sound reached Dexter's ears and Kila looked at Dexter to see if he heard it and by his expression he did.
"We have to be careful. I'll go lure it out and you guys can support me, try not to get killed." Dexter said to them before walking away.
"Wait. What are we...?" Tracy was confused.
"Look, there's probably some large dog monster around here. We can hear it." Kila said and Tracy nodded.
As Dexter walked to passed the trees he headed to the middle of all the cars and he summoned a silver chain in his hand along with his shadow spear in his right hand.
He then began banging the spear on the ground, making loud clanking sounds and then, something lunged towards him from the opposite side of where his group were.
He immediately swung his spear at the creature, making his hand slip to the blunt bottom, extending it before whacking the dog to the side.
*Bang!*
The creature rolled on the air before sliding on the ground, it's silver-like claws making sparks on the ground as it stopped its motion.
It was a large, 1.5 metre tall black dog that stood tall, glaring towards Dexter who hit it to the side.
It's teeth were sharp, spit dripped out of its mouth as it blinked its pitch black eyes often.
'This one looks dangerous.' Dexter thought. But then he saw a cut mark beside its body and then he knew that his spear was able to hurt it.
'Will that be the difference between sixth class and seventh class too? If so... the only saving grace is the spear, and the son of the sun technique.'
'I haven't been given any other quest to complete to unlock another skill of my class so I'm stuck with the dark flame. Light flame is as strong, but dangerous to my body.' Dexter sighed.
Dexter put his palm in front of him and a golden flame appeared over it. The heat, he felt it on his palm, so he let it float further away and he gazed at it very well.
'Sun flame, powerful, but deadly.' He thought as he dismissed it and summoned his status screen.
[3. One with sun (Useable): Wrap your entire body in sun flames, boosting all your stats by 70%. Requirement - Strength >170, spirit energy >350.
4. Inner sun: Have your own inner sun, no longer needing assistance from the sun to use the technique. Requirement - spirit energy >500, strength >200.
5. Help from the sun: Summon beams of light from the sun to destroy your enemies. Requirement - mind >350...]
...
'Hm. This third skill...' Dexter shook his head.
'The sun boost, using it with the sun flame control to perform ten waves almost disintegrated my hands.' Dexter remembered when he used ten waves against the foolish frog which wanted to use an aerial attack.
'Using one with sun, wrapping my entire body... the boost makes sense but as I'm a vampire... I won't even last one minute.' Dexter smiled bitterly. 'Not to even speak of the fact it'll hurt like crazy.'
Dexter sighed.
*Beep beep!*
"Hey Dexter, over here!"
Dexter turned to the sound of Tracy and then he saw a black jeep with a few scratches on the front which still had its lights on and working.
He could also hear the engines and he smiled and walked towards it.
The others were already around the vehicle and Tracy was already in the driver's seat checking out the model and other essentials like the functionality and controls, along with fuel level.
"How's it?" Dexter asked Tracy as he got to the car.
"It's okay. Fuel levels could probably last for a full day of driving. The engine is good, working perfectly. The only problems are the damages done to the exterior of the car." Tracy explained.
She seemed super confident in everything she said about the car. Unlike when it comes to fighting, her ability and knowledge about cars seemed wide.
"You don't seem like a kind if person to go for nursing, seeing that you like cars so much." Dexter said as he checked the fuel meter.
"Hmm... well. It's what seemed most honorable and my parents urged me to do it. And you know how it is, got to put a smile on their faces." Tracy said as she strapped herself into the seat.
Suddenly, Dexter heard a loud thud coming from the city beyond the fence of trees around the park and he suddenly had a glimpse of someone in a red cloak hiding behind a tree and he suddenly ran towards the stalker.
"Hey..." Tracy mumbled as she just found out that he ran somewhere and Hannah came to the side and looked at Tracy but Tracy only made an 'I don't know' gesture using her hands and shoulders.
