As Zac and gan were rushing around the warehouse at high speeds, the pair decided to split the opponents between themselves.
They knew that Balthazar was the strongest of the vampire group. In fact, he was stronger than Zac and gan together.
Laurent and Claudia were around their level, and while the three sentinels wouldn't have been a problem by themselves, they were quite troubleso when supporting their older siblings.
To split the group into sothing gan considered fair, she lunged at Balthazar with all of her strength and began unleashing a barrage of slices and stabs with her dagger that prevented any other vampire from getting close to them.
anwhile, Zac was left fighting the group of five, using his chro bat to deflect two attacks from the sentinels before charging at Laurent.
Still, it was to no avail, as Laurent and Claudia were perfectly synchronized, so any ti that he found an opening to exploit, he would get blocked by another vampire.
Their encounter kept going for minutes, and nobody in the warehouse had unleashed their full power, almost as if they were sparring the whole ti.
Zac had received a few claw attacks on his arms, but they weren't anything severe, making him ponder if they were going easy on him.
'I can't get angry like this!' Zac thought.
The redhead's berserker abilities beca natural to him whenever he was in a life-or-death situation. However, his body wasn't recognizing the current events as "dangerous enough for him to die," so he couldn't tap into his berserker powers.
After both gan and Zac had been worn out a little by their encounter, the vampires gained distance from them and gathered near the entrance of the warehouse.
Zac was about to take a step forward to charge at them but halted imdiately after sensing a powerful presence appearing right behind their opponents.
The vampires stood tall, although their clothing was slightly tattered, and made way for the figure of a woman to enter the warehouse.
gan and Zac froze montarily, sensing an incredible amount of power flowing from the mysterious woman, reminiscent of Dante.
The pair could tell that it wasn't the sa energy that ca from Dante as it didn't feel like pure umbra, but it was still pretty overwhelming for them.
"So, that's the target, huh?" The woman said, her voice strangely soothing.
As she kept walking forward, the pair was able to detail the woman's features, and they instantly understood that she was a vampire of even higher rank than Balthazar.
"gan…?" Zac whispered, his hands trembling.
"I know—We have no chance against her," gan replied, glaring at the vampire and raising her guard.
The mysterious woman wore a black leather coat and corset, highlighting her slim waistline, black pants, and tall boots.
Her long hair was black with white accents, and her foreboding, dark red eyes were as sharp as a blade.
"Wh-Who are you? Why are you targeting gan?" Zac nervously asked.
"Hmm, who's this?" The vampire leader asked, turning around to look at her children and utterly ignoring Zac.
"He arrived from one of the shards, so he is probably part of the Jade Dragons," Balthazar replied.
"Huh, not bad…" The woman comnted, rubbing her chin and glancing at the redhead.
"I wanted to talk for a bit, but seeing my children hurt is making change my mind…" She continued.
'Children…?' gan thought, rembering Dante told her that vampire clans were led by a Mother or a Father.
Even though none of the vampires had any severe injuries, the woman seed displeased at the few bruises she spotted—especially on the sentinels.
*Gulp* Zac nervously swallowed and raised his baseball bat forward, and just as Mother turned her attention to them, he felt a shock as if his body was telling him to run.
"gan-...!!" The redhead shouted, instantly getting interrupted by a punch in the throat that shattered his windpipe.
The brunette tried to kick Mother as soon as she appeared before Zac, but the woman simply waved her hand and slapped her kick away, leaving her unguarded.
Without being able to reach the ground, gan received a blast of energy that flung her to the side, followed by a stab on her shoulder from a blood projectile that resembled a blade, nailing her against the wall.
When gan glanced at her left shoulder and noticed the red blade, she tried to pull it out with her right hand, but as soon as she touched it, she felt it burning her hand, prompting her to let go of it before scorching her fingers.
Zac was having trouble breathing after getting punched in the throat, but he didn't stop and rushed at Mother with his bat in one hand, clenching his teeth with a furious expression.
"A berserker…?" Mother muttered, deflecting the redhead's attacks with her hands.
"How curious," she continued, avoiding the baseball bat aid at her face and releasing another blast of energy that pushed Zac back.
The redhead skidded across the ground and used his bat to slow down the force of the push until he was fully stopped.
Glancing at gan, he felt glad that his diversion worked, as the brunette had freed herself from the wall, and her killing intent was palpable all over the warehouse.
The rest of the vampires got a bit nervous, noticing gan's killing intent was quite overwhelming, even for Balthazar. Still, Mother didn't flinch at her threat.
Without saying a word, gan grabbed her dagger and took a defensive stance. In the blink of an eye, she had rushed and appeared a re two ters away from her opponent.
Mother widened her eyes in surprise, and when gan slashed the air with her dagger, the environnt around them seed to warp montarily, releasing a wave of energy in the shape of a massive slice that cut through the fabric of reality.
"Mother!" The sentinels shouted with worried tones.
Nevertheless, gan could see the vampire smirking mischievously as the air slice traveled toward her, making her wonder if they should try escaping instead.
