In the middle of the night.Outside the city, at an abandoned factory. Charles and Thomas were standing outside. Thomas was smoking, whereas Charles was drinking blood from four packets at a time.“You really seem like you can’t wait to destroy Samantha and Leslie,” Thomas smirked. “Just what did they do to you? Did they milk you or something?”“What they have done is too disgusting for words,” Charles coldly glanced at him. “Those women are nothing but freaky, torn-up mutilated dolls that deserve to rot at the bottom of a dumpster.”“Ah, I couldn’t agree more. They are going to come here, right?”“I believe they want me, so they will come here.”“Good to know. So, what are you doing these days?” Thomas said. “You haven’t been playing much poker lately. Are you busy learning your neighbor’s habits after buying a villa?”“Neighbor’s habits, huh…” Charles sighed. “In this wicked world, keeping up with the Joneses is a recipe for disaster. I use my own discernment and decide what to foll

Carlos was overwhelmed, not just because more than sixty vampires were literally trying to rip him apart but also because the white bony cage continuously sucked his energy.It was a skill that Samantha had learned from Butcher Bones. In fact, she had been granted the power to use that skill, and she believed that she had just put it to good use.Inside that sturdy white cage, Carlos couldn’t control his blood. He couldn’t use his abilities. In fact, he was losing his awakened form and was beginning to turn into his human form.“What’s going on?” Leslie looked a little confused. “Why isn’t he fighting back? Isn’t he super-awakened or something?”“He might have awakened his blood, but he’s still a Blood Sucker,” Samantha indifferently said. “He’s nothing compared to our boss, Butcher, who’s a Life Leecher. The fundamental difference in their abilities in itself is something that can’t ever be made up for. Otherwise, the Slaughter Squad would have long killed him and eaten him piece to

Carlos had already spent a lot of energy during this fight, but when Leslie hugged him from behind and tried to restrict his movements so that Samantha could get a proper shot at piercing his heart, Carlos’ blood rushed like never before. He howled like a crazed beast and swiveled at the last second.Samantha’s eyes widened because her sword thrust right through Leslie’s heart first. She didn’t stop there and pushed the sword even further using all her strength, thus managing to pierce through Carlos’ heart as well.Both Leslie and Carlos coughed blood and collapsed forward. Leslie fell right on top of him.Samantha was huffing and puffing. She moved Leslie’s body to the side and could see her eyes, and Leslie’s eyes went back to normal and had no life in them. She already died. “I’m sorry, Leslie.” Samantha had known Leslie from a very young age, but she had to sacrifice her best friend to kill a monster, or so she believed. “I will tell Boss Butcher that your contribution was great

Charles had been looking for Butcher everywhere. From one end of the city to the other, he went through every gang and hideout he knew. From the Snake gang that was influential in the north to the Bluestone mafia down the south, he didn’t leave anyone unquestioned.However, all of them couldn’t give him any valuable information.Charles spent a few days in Bones’ hospital as a patient suffering from stomach illness. He used his enhanced sense of hearing to see if he could find anybody talking about Butcher, but he didn’t get the results he wanted.“Just where did he disappear?”Charles couldn’t help but feel anxious.“Maybe, I shouldn’t have sent him such a blatant warning.”Fighting an enemy directly was one thing, but if Butcher were to attack him using other vampires while keeping himself hidden, things would get unnecessarily dragged and complex for Charles who was tired of even thinking about Butcher.The reason he was tortured by Samantha and Leslie in the first place was becaus

An underground city.Charles thought it would be more like a dungeon with a ceiling like that of a cave. However, when the elevator’s doors opened, he felt like he was in a world of its own. A dark world, where flame torches were the only sources of light.Regular humans wouldn’t be able to see past what the light allowed them to, but Charles was different. He was able to see everything that this place had to offer. The ceiling was thousands of feet high. And there were star-like structures embedded into the stone ceiling, though they weren’t glowing at the moment.It was like they were inside a dome, and the city before him was pretty big, too. He couldn’t see the end, but the bar owner kept bragging about the city and told them that it was over 16,000 square kilometers in area, and at the center of it, about 300 square kilometers was where the citizens lived. The rest of the area around the city was allocated to chimeric beasts.Currently, they were at the inner circle, where the Be
