167 Max VS Vampire King [1]

Max stood in front of the vampire king, feeling the cold air from the open window behind him on his back. They were both armed, one a vampire king with his powerful-looking rapier, and the other, Max with his own crimson blade.

The former was extremely cautious.

The reason was simple: when he attempted to stop Max by grabbing his shoulder, he sensed some sort of otherwordly aura he couldn't understand.

And during the micro-seconds Max took to turn in his direction, he saw a red figure above the boy, and a terrifying one at that: it was almost as if it protected him, watching over the human, and it stared at the king as if he was nothing.

'What the hell is that?' he mumbled, sweat pouring from his forehead and fear taking over, but of course, he didn't let it show.
