293 Crossing Paths
Slayer was really close to digging his claws into Herald’s chest. And he thought that he could actually take care of the vampire right then and there.
However, Herald easily grabbed Slayer by his wrist, kicked him in the gut, and then slamd him down on the floor.
“Not so easily, Mr. tall man,” Herald gave a smirk and twisted Slayer’s arm.
Slayer grunted in pain and tried to resist. But he couldn’t free his hand at all. So, he kneed Herald on the stomach and tried to push that vampire off of him.
But no matter how many tis he kicked and kneed Herald, Herald didn’t show any sign of pain, nor did he leave his hold on Slayer.
Rather, Herald even teased the werewolf who was infamous for being the strongest and cruelest among their kind. “Ooh! Yes. I was feeling itchy right there.” Herald smiled at the werewolf who was using all his might and trying to push him away.
However, though Herald wasn’t showing that he was being affected by the kicks, he was feeling the pain. Thus, to stop Slayer from continuously kicking him, he locked Slayer’s arm using both of his hands and snapped his hand as if he was breaking a twig.
“Arghhhhhhhh…” Slayer’s voice echoed throughout the dungeon once again and even traveled outside.
And the mont Slayer took a brief pause from the kicking, Herald banged his head onto Slayer’s forehead so hard that the werewolf blacked out.
.....
Herald took a deep sigh and looked at the unmoving body of Slayer. And he mumbled to himself, “He was one hell of a strong man. But…” He got up on his feet and praised himself, “He wasn’t strong enough to incapacitate .”
Herald looked towards the stairs of the dungeon. Suddenly, the proud smile on his face was replaced by anger and disgust.
He narrowed his eyes and then thought to himself, ‘Now, let’s not waste any more ti. I need to find that anomaly before the others recover from their sneezing fit… I bet most of them have already recovered.’
Herald quickly made his way toward the staircase. He looked at the woman lying unconscious on the floor as he passed by and thought, ‘Well, I guess you will get to live… whoever you are.’
‘Because I am going to end the life of the very person who wanted to end yours.’ He gritted his teeth and then started to climb up the stairs.
When he walked outside of the dungeon, he could still hear a few of the werewolves sneezing and sniffling.
‘It didn’t affect that tall man that much though,’ he wondered to himself and kept on sneaking and scanning the area.
After looking through several rooms and passing a few corridors, Herald wondered if the alpha was even there. ‘Maybe he went sowhere else? Else, according to the whispers that I heard, he is always in the dungeon around this ti. And he stays there for an hour or two.’
He furrowed his brows and pondered, ‘Did he, by chance, got extrely affected by the sll of the herb that I am wearing? And he strayed away from his usual routine? Should I have just killed everyone who got in my way? Maybe then, I could have found him easily.’
He sighed because it didn’t matter anymore. Everything was already done and his plan was already in motion. ‘Let’s just find him anyhow and get the job done.’
Herald quickly hid behind a tall indoor plant when he heard soone.
“I tried to find the cause behind the sudden sneezing problem. But… I didn’t find anything.”
“Then what are you doing here in front of ? Go back and try to locate the main source of this god-awful sll. I feel like my nose is about to drop!”
“Yes, alpha!”
Herald’s eyes suddenly lit up when he heard soone addressing the rude-sounding person as the alpha. ‘At last…’
“And where the hell is Slayer? Has anyone seen him?” Herald heard the irritating voice again.
After so silence, Herald heard soone whispering to the alpha. “I saw him taking that guest to the dungeon.”
“Hmm… I almost forgot abou– Achoo! Ugh! I thought the stench was settling down. But it’s getting stronger again! Do sothing!”
Herald heard the footsteps dispersing very quickly. ‘Should I finish him right here? Or should I wait until he goes to the dungeon?’
He recalled all the bloodstains that he saw in the dungeon and then made a decision. ‘The dungeon it is. I am going to wash off his victim’s blood with his blood.’
When all the noises died down, Herald walked out of his hiding place and then went back towards the dungeon.
Upon reaching the door of the dungeon, he could hear a few people murmuring. ‘I guess soone found the unconscious one.’
Without caring if there were more than one werewolf in the dungeon, he stepped in.
“Who’s there?”
A man asked when they heard soone locking the door of the dungeon from the inside.
They didn’t sound alard yet though.
Herald eagerly walked down the stairs and before the others ca into view, he replied in a threatening tone, “Soone you wish you never crossed paths with.”
“What the hell? Do you want to die or sothing?” Soone walked towards the staircase to see who was trying to be funny in the presence of the alpha.
“No. But I’m sure you want that because…” Herald ca into everyone’s view and said in a chilling tone, “If I were you, I wouldn’t be approaching this carelessly.”
That man widened his eyes when he saw the red pair of eyes that were glaring at him. “A vamp–”
Before he could even finish his sentence, Herald snatched the heart out of that man’s chest. That man’s body dropped to the floor with a loud thud.
Romulus, as well as the other two werewolves who were trying to wake Slayer up were stunned by everything that unfolded in front of their eyes.
Herald gave a death glare to all three of them and asked in a spine-chillingly cold voice, “Okay. Who’s next?”
