While it was true that I ca here for Evelyn. That was only half of the reason. The most important part was how did Evelyn Flowers a Reaper who died long ago return as a Vampire. The second was how did her a soulgear bearing her {fate} make it into the Graveyard.
Right now, much like Dorian, this duke bastard was looking down on . He seed to be under the impression that he had the upper hand in this negotiation. Truthfully, I wasn't able to resist at the beginning and as a result he was dictating the pace of this negotiation.
But no longer.
"Listen well, honey. Here in Hellsgate. never give away anything for free. Negotiations are fought long before words are even spoken. So, leave them to . We cannot be too eager to invite anyone to our group.
The dynamics of whether they or we ask first greatly differ. The first who expresses interest already loses the upper hand."
Rembering the words of my Brazilian bombshell, I decided to do what I do best. Much like Dominic. I wasn't who asked for this arrangent. Stefan did. So, it would be better to him if I complied. That was what he needed.
But to hell with what he wanted.
"What if I don't want to?" I declared while releasing Death Resonance.
'[Inventory] Raging Hunter.'
I summoned my beloved revolver in my left hand and pointed it towards Evelyn's heart. In one swift motion I cocked back the hamr and placed my finger on the trigger.
"W-What?" "Aiiii!"
Every bloodsucker in the room put their guard up and had their eyes turn red. Sohow so of their teeth turned into fangs, truly giving them a Vampire's from fiction. Evelyn in particular tried to act stupid but was looking towards the duke.
As if she was asking permission, she no longer the innocence she had earlier. In its place was the hunger of a hunter. Similarly, the five won around Stefan all stood up and surrounded .
Despite remaining seated the duke lost his smile and had a troubled expression.
"What if Evelyn was just an excuse? What if all I really wanted was to wipe out you bloodsuckers to extinction? Close Hellsgate? Why would I do that? If I did, then I wouldn't have anyone else to fight now, would I?"
This bastard was grasping straws. He had intellect but he was no human. Instead, he was trying to fake knowing human psychology. A monster no matter how smart it remained a monster. Juno was leagues better.
"Wait! Didn't you ally with the Lizards? We can be friends to! Why do you stubbornly try and pick a fight? I extended a hand in friendsh…"
"Why don't you try then?" I interjected.
"Huh?"
"Why don't you try? You brag about your army of Vampires, right? My ho is on the 24th floor. One way or another you will have to go through and my kingdom."
"…"
"I am no fool, Stefan. You do not hold the bigger stick. I do. For all your bravado, your people haven't encountered soone like before, have you? Your vampires aren't prepared to get massacred by blessed bullets. You want to strut your feathers like a peacock when you are but a duck."
[Master, there is no sign of Gaspar. Lady Jas said you can proceed. Please be careful.]
"HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT THE DUKE! DIE!" "NO! STAND DOWN!"
Despite his command, one of his wives leaped towards . But as I was still using Robyn's shadow silhouette. My body heated up even before she moved. I turned the Raging hunter and pulled the trigger.
A 500 S&W Sacred erupted and blew the top half of the woman into dazzling light. In the sa mont, I called for reinforcents.
"{Never alone}, {Day by Day}, [Shared Inventory]."
Six soul avatars ard with guns step forward. Sacred munition ready to kill as we took aim. I, still in Sunday remained seated with a smile.
"Let's try this again, all of you sit." I said in high spirits.
Despite my words, none of the Noble Vampires stand down. However, similarly, none of them moved to attack .
"You. You fucker. You killed my woman," Stefan began to grumble out in anger.
Bella's words rang true. I learned more from his actions that his words. Stefan was neither wise nor powerful. He was but a child. His deanor and behavior supported this fact. And the truth that he only cursed after I killed one of his lovers spoke volus of his temperant.
"You have four more. You want them all dead too?"
"I will rip apart your harem, you fucking Reaper. You just made an enemy of !"
"No amount of posturing will get you anywhere, Stefan. If you really loved your woman, you would have already attacked by now. You are a coward. Isn't that why you called over?"
Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire
"…"
While it seed true that his forces sounded impressive Hellsend was no slouch either. I got cautions because I used Gaspar as a asuring stick. After all, if I had to fight a thousand of him, I probably would die.
But for so fucking reason, he wasn't here. If he was really the loyal follower he was in the visions from Advent. He should have been here. Thus it only ant three things.
One he was in hiding but was here for Stefan's protection.
Two was waiting around my harem intending to attack them to get to comply.
Three he really wasn't here.
I didn't have the girls with . So I could go as wild as I wanted to. And unlike Vampires. I had no qualms about dying. I could die as many ties as necessary to win. So I took a gamble.
And threaten the duke.
And for all his strength, this duke seed to behave like a kid. From his posturing to displays of dominance. He deviated from what a Vampire should be not in a good way. He was both a coward and a fool.
"You still have so value to duke. Stand down while I am asking nicely."
Gritting his teeth, Stefan gestured and all his Vampires sat down. Similarly, my other bodies stood down but kept our weapons ready.
"You will answer my questions, or I will kill you right now. You already saw how I fight right? Unless you fight like Gaspar. You will not survive. And I have confird he is not here. Speaking of which, where is he?
I need a rematch with him."
"He is not here. He is not my servant. He was soone loaned to ."
What? How the fuck could that be real?
"Please refrain from speaking. I have no interest in anything but serving the duke. There is nothing you can offer . So please just accept your fate."
That was he said in the mory of the ghoul Delroy checked with {Advent}. I got the impression that he was loyal to the duke. It was because of him that I tried to prepare so many failsafe and got the help of the Lizardkin.
'And you are telling he doesn't serve the duke? Then why does Gaspar tell others otherwise?'
Angry at all the confusing mind gas I smashed my hand into the coffee table in front of .
"STOP PLAYING GAS WITH ! MOTHERFUCKER! IF YOU AREN'T HIS DUKE THEN WHO ARE YOU!"
"I WAS ISEKAIED YOU FUCKING LUNATIC! I DIDN'T EVEN WANT TO BE HERE!"
It took a few good seconds before I regained my wits.
"What? What do you an you were Isekaied?"
"I HAVE MORIES OF MY PAST LIFE! I WAS SENT HERE BY A FUCKING GODDESS! I WAS A FUCKING OFFICE WORKER IN JAPAN WHO DIED OF OVERWORK!"
"…"
'Exa.'
[I am just as confused as you are, my lord.]
I began massaging the bridge of my nose as I prepared myself. It seems that once again I found yet another secret of Hellsgate. One IRIS has saturated the dium of fiction with.
