NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 172: [Two of them!]
"It's bland! Blergh!" Amber spoke, while she tried to finish the bite that she took out of that butterscotch ice cream. Looking at her face, I smiled a bit before using a bit of my energy to improve the taste of the ice cream before I spoke,
"Try again."
She looked at me with a slight doubtful expression before she took another bite. Her eyes widened before she took another bite, enjoying the newfound flavour of that previously bland ice cream.
Amber was the first, since I looked at others' expressions, and sighed before improving their ice creams as well. And as we were walking through the park, my eyes looked at lush greenery and those colourful flowers at the sidewalk. Although I was the one responsible for this refreshing scene, all I did was merely improvised on what was already present here.
Hence, I felt more than relaxed here right now.
Everything was almost perfect.
Except for a certain woman dressed in black standing at the edge of the park on the other side. Wearing a Romanian type of women's dress, she stood there with a certain elegance, a type of contrast to the lush greenery.
Carrying a black umbrella, she barely showed her face, but with the help of my [Map], I could make out that she was one of a kind beauty. A face that you would find in movies and such, or perhaps, even the celebrities pale in comparison to the beauty that this being had.
And looking at her [Status!], I found that her power level was somewhat around peak S-Grade or so. She was much stronger than that Elder Vampire.
'Is she a higher class of Vampire or something?' I pondered until I reached a certain part of her status.
[Race: Half- Ghoul Half-Vampire(Converted by King's Blood)]
And then my eyes looked at Elliot. My eyes observed the new found potential that she carried, and honestly speaking I was surprised. I mean I could tell that she would grow much better than her peers, both ghouls and humans, but I didn't expect it to reach peak S-Grade or something.
'If I were to intervene, can I help her reach SS-Grade? Doesn't seem impossible to me,' I thought as I felt it wouldn't be too bad to bring her in as a [Contractee!], though for now let's focus on the task at hand.
I saw that Vampire Ghoul girl, slowly lifting up her black umbrella, her black red eyes, slowly focusing her gaze on Elliot. Those that saw her, instinctively fell in love with her, others that were stronger, saw the threat that she possessed.
She moved one step towards us, her eyes narrowing more and more at Elliot, a motherly warm gaze to be frank, and with each step narrowed, her smile widened as she analyzed Elliot from top to bottom.
-Whoosh!
The first one to break free from her trance was Kite. She jumped at that half-ghoul, her swords ready to slice her in half. Though before she could even cover half the distance between them, her movements were stopped.
It wasn't fear this time, but a form of restriction. Very fine silky threads, barely visible by naked eyes, entangled Kite, stopping her movements completely. Those threads, made up of blood, were stronger than any metal or steel, and if the user wanted, they could have cut Kite into pieces.
'Two of them, huh?' I looked through the map, finding another Half-Ghoul, this time a blonde haired beauty with large breasts. Barely covering her chest, she wore a one piece long dress from chest and below. Her threads entangled the entire city, controlling the lives of all the people present in here.
"Oh! A special case, huh?" The vampire in black spoke as she reached closer to Kite, her eyes finally leaving Elliot who was barely able to stand on her two feets. Somehow the charm didn't work on her like it did on the others.
My eyes reached Amber who seemed like a maiden in love, and then the others, who were basically the same as her. And then I sighed slowly before observing Kite again.
"I wonder if I should convert you into one of my slaves? Wouldn't that be fantastic?!" A wide smile on her face, the black haired half-ghoul spoke. And retorting her, another voice came,
"I caught her first, Velma. Don't you dare steal my puppet," the red dressed blonde half-ghoul appeared from the shadows out of nowhere, her eyes a bit annoyed at the words of the black one, Velma.
"Come on Nadia, aren't we sisters? It's fine if I have some from time to time don't you think?" Velma spoke in a sheepish tone, trying to act cute, though it didn't seem like it affected Nadia, who was practically glaring at Velma.
"You broke all my toys last time. I would rather kill them than share them again with you!" Nadia shouted, a bit fuming before she slowly calmed herself. And then looking at Kite, who was raging right now, trying to break free from all those threads, she smiled a bit.
"Sweetheart. Come here," with a humble smile on her face, Nadia commanded Kite. And with restrictive yet forced motion, as if like a puppet, Kite moved towards Nadia, her eyes glaring at the half vampire.
"Come on now, don't make that face. We are all going to be a big happy family now. Your uncles and aunts, sisters and brothers are all going to be SO MUCH HAPPY with you!" Nadia spoke with excitement written all over her face.
Velma clicked her tongue before she looked at Elliot, and then slightly licking her lips, she began moving towards Elliot again.
"At least, I have you," she mumbled before reaching about a dozen meters away from Elliot. And then as she moved closer, she began speaking again,
"Don't worry. Everything is going to be fine. It might be painful for a couple of years, but once you get past that you will understand how great our lord is."
"Pitiful, isn't it?" And I finally spoke as I realised that there was nothing more to see here.
