Dexter, Kila and Lily were out of the camp still out in the ruined city hunting monsters. The sounds of fierce beasts roaring coming from every direction reminded them that the world was a terrible place to be.
"How exactly did you guys get to USA?" Quan asked with a deep frown as he looked at Dexter and Dexter looked down when he heard that and then he looked at Quan with a subtle smile.
Quan furrowed his brows as he immediately thought of the options which would be even possible to achieve and then he face palmed as he never thought of this.
'Stupid! I was only thinking of beating him in battle!' Quan shook his head and then he looked at Natasha who was beside him with a frown on her face.
Seems like she had the same thoughts as Quan.
"Wait! There`s no way to cross the ocean unless you face countless deadly beasts along the way, not to talk of the distance all the way from Nigeria!" Lin Bai said in shock. Seems that Quan wasn`t the only one with such thoughts.
Seeing Dexter only smiling at him Quan felt frustrate-ed and he gritted his teeth as he wore an angry expression and looked at Dexter.
"So you were toying with me. Not using your full strength to fight me."
Kila was already tired of the drama caused by the blue haired young man in front of them and then she walked forward.
"Look, we only came out to rake in more points from killing monsters. So would you just drop the whole 'crossing the ocean' case, the story would take a lot of our time," Kila said and Dexter who was behind her nodded and then Quan snorted and walked up to them.
"I see you`re all hiding your full strengths. Our fight won`t end here, I`ll look forward to fighting you again,"' Quan said with a smile and then he walked away with Natasha and Lin Bai who seemed to still be baffled by the entire situation.
"Quan! Do you know what this means?!" Lin Bai was very much freaked out that the group made it passed the ocean without even a scratch on their skin.
"Dexter has a really strong heart," Kila said and Lily nodded her head as they followed him from behind.
"I can tell that the only thing holding him from becoming a 'Daemon' is his love for his mom and Hannah."
Hearing Kila say that, Lily was very confused as she has never heard of the word 'Daemon' before.
"What's a Daemon?" Lily asked and Kila chuckled as she face palmed.
"I forgot you can still be considered new when it comes to vampire stuff." Kila stretched and Dexter quietly listened in while still observing the surroundings. "A vampire's true form is a representation of their soul, some vampires take the shape of bats while some can take the shape of demonic beasts. All in all a vampire's power is highly increased in the true form."
"Now there are two ways to unlock one's true form. The first way to become a vampire count which we`re all not close to becoming, and the second method is to abandon your emotions. I`ve heard stories of vampires who went berserk after abandoning their emotions."
"I don't understand, how do you abandon your heart?" Lily asked innocently and KIla ruffled her hai with a smile.
"A vampires lose their emotions when all their physical connections with the world has been severed. When there`s no one to love anymore, you don't know anyone anymore. Most of the ties such vampires become demonic beasts," Kila explained and Dexter sighed tiredly.
Learning more about himself and what he is can be terrifying sometimes, so many laws.
It wasn't long before night reached, Kila and Lily managed to get to level 31 while Dexter was at level 35 on His own. They all made their way to camp that night and after the girls left to their rooms and Dexter sat on a small grass field north of the camp, thinking.
"Hey." Hannah's voice came from behind and then her hands wrapped around Dexter's neck.
Dexter pulled her forward and sat her on his laps and he just hugged her in that position. Hannah hugged him back as she could really feel his pain at this moment.
