Hansen’s car glided smoothly away from the campus area, cruising along the gradually quieting evening streets. Inside the cabin, the atmosphere felt comfortable. His car’s interior was luxurious yet clean and well-organized, with a faint mint leaf scent wafting from the dashboard air freshener.

Chelsea sat beside him, gazing at the road through the window. A smile still lingered on her lips.

"Honestly... I didn’t expect you to take on that challenge," she said softly, breaking the silence.

Hansen smiled faintly, keeping his focus on the road. "I didn’t expect all eyes to turn to me afterward either."

Chelsea turned, her eyes sparkling. "You were amazing back there. Seriously. All the students are like... fans now."

Hansen didn’t respond, but from the corner of his eye, a small smile betrayed his pride.

"And you said your car's interior was nice... turns out it’s really smooth to drive too," Che

  • Chapter 69: Blood and Sacrifice

    Hansen stood frozen, his eyes locked onto Kira, who was trapped within a cage of blood energy. His body trembled, his fangs still bared, but tears streamed down his pale cheeks."Let her go," Hansen growled, his voice deeper than usual. Blue energy began to swirl around his hands.Valeria laughed, stepping closer to the cage. "Why? She already belongs to us. And you... you’re going to witness her transformation."She waved her hand, and the cage glowed even brighter. Kira screamed in pain, her body arching."STOP!" Hansen shot forward, but Gregor and the other vampires blocked his path.Gregor grinned. "You think you can fight us all?"Hansen didn’t answer. His eyes stayed on Kira. Suddenly, the blue energy in his hands exploded, blasting the vampires around him away. They were thrown back, including Gregor, who crashed into a wall.Valeria raised an eyebrow. "Interesting."Hansen didn’t waste time. He rushed toward the cage, but Valeria raised her hand again. An invisible force clamp

  • Chapter 68: The Abduction and the Decision

    Hansen stood on the deserted subway track, his breathing slowly steadying. His hand still gripped the electric baton, its light beginning to fade. Sylvia and the other vampires had escaped, but Kira—"KIRA!" His shout echoed through the empty tunnel.No response.He fumbled into his pocket, pulling out a phone with a cracked screen. His fingers trembled as he dialed."Elara," his voice hoarse. "They took Kira."On the other end, Elara let out a long sigh. "I saw it through the CCTV. A man dragged her eastward, toward the Industrial District."Hansen clenched his fist. "I’m going after them.""Wait!" Elara shouted. "You need a plan. They’re not playing around—""I don’t care if they have a thousand vampires," Hansen growled. "I’ll destroy anything that stands between me and Kira."Elsewhere…Kira’s head throbbed as she slowly regained consciousness. Her body felt heavy, tightly bound to a metal chair. The room around her was dim, lit only by a few candles floating in the air."Ah, the

  • Chapter 67: The Hunt Begins

    The night wind whipped against Kira's face as they sped through the empty city streets. Hansen rode the motorcycle at high speed, his hands gripping the handlebars tightly. Kira held onto his waist, feeling the tension in his muscles."Are you sure we're safe?" Kira shouted over the roar of the engine.Hansen didn’t answer right away. His eyes kept flicking to the rearview mirror. “Not yet. They’re definitely tracking us.”Suddenly, the streetlights ahead exploded one by one, plunging the road into a tunnel of darkness.“Hold on tight!” Hansen veered sharply into a narrow alley.From the rooftops, black shadows leapt over them with unnatural speed. Kira counted at least four figures moving with eerie grace.Sylvia ran across the rooftops, her sharp eyes not missing a single movement of the bike below. Her pointed ears caught the frantic beat of Kira’s heart.Perfect, she thought, licking her lips.She signaled to the three other vampires with her. “Remember, the Queen wants Hansen ali

  • Chapter 66: Tactics and Deception

    Darian lunged like lightning, his long claws slicing through the air just inches from Hansen’s face. Hansen dodged to the side with agility, but Kira could see a trickle of blood running from a cut on his cheek."The so-called great master," Darian sneered, his eyes glowing red. "All you can do is dodge?"Hansen didn’t respond. His breathing was ragged, the sword in his hand trembling slightly. Kira wanted to rush to help him, but Stanley held her back firmly."Master Hansen has a plan," Stanley whispered. "Trust him."Darian attacked again, this time even faster. Hansen was flung backward, his body crashing into a metal rack, sending medical tools flying."NO!" Kira screamed, struggling to break free.Darian approached Hansen, who lay motionless. A wide grin revealed his long fangs. "Finally. I’m going to drink your so-called special blood."Just as Darian leaned down to bite, something unexpected happened.Hansen’s once-weary eyes suddenly lit up in a brilliant blue."You were too e

  • Chapter 65: The Hunter's Trail

    Laotaro’s big motorcycle roared through the quieting city streets. Kira clung tightly to Hansen's waist, her cheek resting against his strong back. The night wind brushed her face, carrying with it Hansen’s scent—a mix of mint soap and something deeper, more primal."First time on a big bike?" Hansen shouted over the engine’s roar.Kira nodded before realizing he couldn’t see her. "Yeah! It’s really fast!"Hansen chuckled, then suddenly swerved sharply into a narrow alley. Kira let out a small scream, gripping him tighter. "Watch out, Hansen!"But Hansen was a pro. With deadly precision, the big bike glided smoothly toward a renovated old building. In front of the door, a few Black Mamba members stood guard, weapons in hand.As the bike came to a stop, Stanley rushed over. He looked better than the last time they’d met—healthier, with less fear in his eyes. But tonight, a new tension lined his jaw."Sir," Stanley bowed respectfully. "They’re waiting in the lower room."Hansen removed

  • Chapter 64: Traces of Bond

    The morning sun crept gently through the window, softly washing over Hansen’s already-awake face. His eyes—usually alert and calculating—now looked at Kira with a rare tenderness. Her body was still wrapped under the blanket, only her shoulders and messy black hair visible atop the pillow.Hansen took a deep breath. Memories of the previous night flashed in his mind—the trembling first touch, Kira’s breathless gasps between kisses, and how her body responded to every stroke of his hand. The dried blood on the sheet wasn’t just proof of Kira’s virginity, but a small battle they had fought against the pain that had slipped between those intimate moments."I'm okay," Kira had whispered last night, even though her forehead had furrowed in discomfort.Hansen rubbed his face. Desire still smoldered within him, but he held it back. Kira must be exhausted—not just from work, but also from their first experience together.Moving carefully, Hansen got out of bed, trying not to wake her. He grab

  • Chapter 63: The Awakening of Hidden Energy

    That night, in Laotaro’s modest underground chamber, Hansen sat cross-legged atop a meditation circle drawn with special chalk. The damp stone walls were lined with shelves full of strange potions and dried roots. Kira sat in the corner, her eyes fixed on Hansen, whose body had begun to emit a pale blue aura."How much longer will he be like this?" Kira whispered to Laotaro, who was preparing herbal tea."The fusion process between the Thousand-Year Ginseng and his cultivation core takes time, Miss Kira," Laotaro replied as he poured hot water. "Could be an hour… or all night—"Suddenly, the entire room trembled. Bottles on the shelves rattled, and concrete dust rained down from the ceiling. Hansen raised both hands, a swirl of spiritual energy forming above his head."AAAAARGH!"His voice echoed strangely, as if layered with multiple tones. A golden triangle symbol reappeared on his forehead, glowing brightly.Kira jumped to her feet, an automatic knife already in her hand. "Somethin

  • Chapter 62: The Eternal Choice

    Hansen stood between two portals, his heart torn in two. On one side, Kira and Elara—the only family he had in this foreign world. On the other, the true world of cultivation, a place where he could reach the peak of power and perhaps… find a way home for real."Choose wisely," the voice of the Sky God echoed. "Return as a mortal man, or continue as an immortal cultivator."Hansen clenched his fists. In the first portal, he saw Kira kneeling in the ruins, her tears falling onto the dusty ground. Elara stood behind her, her face blank but eyes red. Laotaro gathered the remaining fragments of the Ginseng, as if hoping to reassemble it.In the second portal, floating mountains soared through a blue sky, ancient swords gleamed in the distance, and spiritual energy flowed like rivers of gold."I…"Suddenly, from the first portal, Kira’s desperate voice rang out: "We’ll find a way to bring you back, Han!"Something stirred in Hansen’s chest. He remembered his promise to them—a promise to pr

  • Chapter 61: The Final Sacrifice

    Kira gripped the communicator tightly, her voice on the verge of breaking. "What do you mean? You’re not coming with us?!"Hansen stared at the pulsing black energy orb before him. "If this portal isn’t sealed, the entire city will be destroyed—maybe even more than that."Elara cut in through the communicator, her voice panicked. "But the countdown is under five minutes! You won’t make it—""Trust me," Hansen interrupted, strangely calm. "I know what I have to do."Outside, danger sirens blared. Small explosions echoed from the upper floors of the facility—the remaining prototypes had begun activating on their own.Kira hesitated, but Elara grabbed her arm. "We have to go! Now!""But Hansen—""He’s a true cultivator," Elara whispered. "He has a plan."With a heavy heart, Kira followed Elara out of the collapsing facility.In the Underground ChamberHansen stared at the black portal. Its energy was alien—not from any world he had known. They hadn’t just been trying to create artificial
