Revelations II

"Ahh...The food is here!"

A human? No, A ghoul? No, A vampire! crawled up into the ceiling of the cave was laughing. Looking right into my eyes. I could feel the hunger through his eyes. there's blood falling out of his hair.

"HOLY SHI- ! " I freaked out and started running outside.

"Not so fast!" The vampire launched itself onto my back and held me on the ground. I tried to shove him off but could feel his supernatural strength despite him having a skinny body.

I was helpless and at his mercy. As I struggled, He opened his hand and revealed his razor-sharp nails. I was certain he was about to rip my nape off. But…

Ragnar jumped out of nowhere and stabbed his spear at the Vampire. But it dodged the spear and louche to the side, getting off of me.

The Ragnar tightened his grip on the spear and charged ahead at not one, but two of the vampires. He was attacked simultaneously by both of them. Ragnar dodged their attacks and swung his spear right through them, but they continued dodging the attacks quickly. They are even quicker than the creature.

The Vampires tried puncturing his chest, but Ragnar jumped them with a split kick. He jumped on the wall and started charging forward before gravity could pull him down. He then launched himself at one of them to pierce its chest.

But the vampire stretched his body dodging his attack in the blink of an eye and Ragnar went right over him. He was both surprised and frustrated by this.

Ragnar landed unbalanced for a second. The vampires were smart enough to capitalise on it and attacked his hand.

...Ragnar was not able to dodge.

"RAGNAR!!!"

"ahh....."

The slash was able to inflict a significant wound on his right hand. I could not believe it as the blood covered his robe and he bleeds at an unrealistic rate.

"..Run!!"

I grasped the opportunity and ran to the cave's exit. But a third vampire jumped before me. He lashed at me with the intent to kill.

Surprisingly,

I could match its speed and was able to dodge his attacks left and right. I took my chance and attacked right at its gut. But he dodged it immediately and backed up at the edge of the cave. I quickly ran straight towards him and picked up a sharp-looking stone.

"Arghhh" I attacked its right eye and went in straight ahead.

~KHRUNCH~

Just before I could hit him, I saw...

The nails of its left hand pierced right through my chest...Blood flowed right through my clothes. "Goddamnit..." I said as I started to faint.

Ragnar, who was somehow through with the wound, noticed my situation.

"YAHH!!"

He threw his spear at the vampire before it could attack me again, Slashing his arm and saving me for the 100th time in the last few hours.

Ragnar battled the two foes now, with one hand only. He appeared to be skilled and was swiftly attacking at their necks and elbows. But somehow, they were ineffective. I noticed that he was slowly getting overwhelmed. Jis movements became slower, and he started to lose the battle.

My condition, on the other hand, was not great either. I was on my knees due to blood loss and Barely forced my way through the exit.

"Heh. 𓁹‿𓁹"

The vampire whose arms had just been slashed stood right before me.

His arm was healed!!

He started laughing.I figured these vampires were immortal!

'You could never beat us. Hahaha-"

~SLASH~

The head of the laughing vampire's head was just blown into smithereens. His body stood up with the open head.

From inside the cave, I saw

a giant figure thrice as prominent as me in size. Even the vampires who were attacking Ragnar stood in their place with nothing but fear in their eyes.

"Forgive us! Please! Please! We were starving! We d-didn't have anything to Ea-"

Between their words, their heads exploded.

"How Dare You hurt them!"

Even though I should've been scared, I was overwhelmed by the situation. Ragnar was about to faint due to his injuries. But he held a magic orb in his hand to heal himself.

The figure menacingly smiled after seeing the orb in Ragnar's hand and spoke,

"I, Alucard Yonas, welcome you, the next generation of 'Sins' to our homeland."
