As for Jonas, his words seemed to give him a confirmation. He didn’t elaborate anymore, but directly turned the guiding stick in his hand into a sword. Then, with the speed of just the blink of an eye, he rushed forward, only seeing a black streak pass by, and then when they all regained their senses, there was a long trail of blood on his blade.
As for the two juniors, without having time to think about anything, two thin but deep cuts appeared on their necks, and then they collapsed, dead without closing their eyes.
This came as a shock to the leader. He stared at Jonas with wide eyes, unable to believe it. It wasn’t until he saw two of his juniors dead, bleeding in a heap, that he realized everything.
His face was pale, his legs were no longer steady. He mumbled out incomplete sounds, then spun around and ran away, but after taking a few steps he collapsed to the ground, crawling. just dragged.
Jonas did not show any fear or haste. He approached the other guy. At this moment, his speed changed, walking as if he were running.
“You… you… don’t come closer, I’ll scream…” the thug threatened him.
Meanwhile, Jonas just lazily warmed up his neck.
“Is that so? Do you think your juniors have had time to scream yet?”
The oligarch seems to be aware of his current situation, as well as the fact that Jonas is not a normal person. He quickly knelt down, continuously kowtowing his head.
“Dear Sir, I was wrong. Please forgive me.”
His voice was trembling, scared and humble.
Even a man in this situation would be so scared. Yet, let’s ask a girl like Selene, taken away by three men and witnessing her father being beaten and disabled, what kind of mood would she feel?
Without thinking, Jonas also felt that the situation was extremely terrible.
With blinding speed, he approached and approached the other thug. Then use one hand to grab his collar, then lift him off the ground.
Looking at him, he looked so skinny and weak, as if a child could hurt him, but at this moment, he showed extraordinary strength, easily lifting someone twice his size like a piece of cargo. . And in his hands, the muscles were also exposed.
“Tell me, where is Selene?”
The thug in Jonas’s arms trembled like a leaf. He stammered in response,
“I… I gave her to my master, but now she is probably in the cave behind the mountain…”
Jonas’s hand tightened a little, causing the thug to groan in pain.
“Who is your master?”
He always felt like there was hidden in this matter, a secret that was hard to put into words.
“Is… is a lord…”
“What is his identity? Are the recent cases of missing young girls related to you? What are you arresting Selene for?
“It hurts… it hurts… relax a little.” Because he was so excited, Jonas strangled the thug quite hard, causing him to beg him to be gentle. He slightly loosened his knuckles, leaving enough space for him to breathe and talk.
“Our… master is, in fact, a vampire entity. The girls who have gone missing recently… it’s true that we took them away. Our master needs the blood of virgins to preserve eternal youth and power…”
“Anything else?”
The thug shook his head vigorously.
“No… no… sir, can you forgive me…”
The thug confessed and before he could apologize, Jonas twisted his hand, causing his neck to break and blood to spill.. came out of the thug’s mouth, he died without closing his eyes.
Once done, he tossed the thug onto the ground and quickly made his way to the cave behind the mountain.
This mountain was where he had trained every day, visiting it hundreds of times, yet he had discovered none caves or anything unusual. Perhaps it was because of him... partly his presence that had put Selene in danger.
Jonas hurried forward, making his way behind the mountain and beginning his search. At that very moment, amidst the dry winter air, there was an overpowering, putrid smell akin to the stench of decaying corpses.
For an ordinary person, it would have been challenging to detect this scent, as the mountain area was naturally exposed to the winds, which carried the aromatic scent away. There were occasional dead animals in the vicinity, which could have caused confusion.
However, at this moment, the unmistakable odor of decay sent shivers of fear and dread through Jonas. He dashed it.
He soon found the entrance to the cave. Or rather, it was the intense stench that guided him to it.
Jonas rushed inside and was met with an eerie, bone-chilling coldness that surpassed the wintry weather outside. The foul smell grew even more pungent, to where Jonas had to cover his nose with his hand.
Suddenly, his guiding cane hit something, causing him to bend down. At that very moment, he touched something cold and rigid.
Jonas jumped in shock, but at the same instant, he realized where he was, what surrounded him, and what was happening.
“Selene...” Jonas lost his composure, stood up, and charged forward. At this point, he could smell a familiar fragrance—the scent of Selene.
In his mind, Jonas seemed to have the answer to her peril, but he refused to believe it. He knelt down and touched a cold, lifeless face.
Her face, her features, her skin, her hair, her attire, her necklace—everything confirmed it was Selene.
“No... no, why did this happen?” Jonas cradled her in his arms, and she lay still, unresponsive. Her body was stiff, showing that she had been dead for over a day. Her skin had withered and dried, a testament to the fact that the vile creature had drained her of her blood.
“I’m sorry, Selene, I’m so sorry. I couldn’t protect you. You died because of me.”
A tear rolled down Jonas’s cheek. He continued to run his fingers through her hair, untangling it. Her hair was still soft and carried a faint fragrance, just as it had always been, but she was no longer there.
“Rest in peace, Selene. I will take care of your family, your parents, and your little sister. I will also seek revenge for you. Those who owe blood will pay with blood. You can find peace in the afterlife; leave the rest to me,” Jonas said.
After speaking, he gently placed her down and then reached to touch her neck. As expected, he felt the two puncture marks.
He then examined the other bodies nearby, all of them being girls who had gone missing in the area. They shared a common trait—being drained of their blood, dying because of excessive blood loss. Their bodies had also become stiff, and in this cold weather, some hadn’t decomposed yet.
In more modern terms, this cave resembled a refrigerated storage unit for meat.
Just then, footsteps echoed from outside. Jonas found a hiding spot and listened. He determined there were two people approaching. Their steps seemed heavier than usual, one leading and the other following, suggesting they were carrying something.
In this situation, Jonas concluded that what they were carrying was the body of another girl.
At this moment, the voices of the two individuals rang out.
“This place is getting cramped day by day. If someone discovers it, what will we do?”
“That’s the master’s concern. We don’t need to worry.”
“True, the master is growing stronger. Once he reaches the pinnacle of his power, we’ll have a better life.”
“I hope so.”
Then, a sound of something being dropped—undoubtedly the girl’s body. Afterward, the two left.
Indeed, they were heartless criminals.
Jonas waited until they had gone quite far before leaving his hiding spot. He used his cane to trace the footsteps left by the two men. They had done this many times and became too comfortable. They thought the snow would hide their tracks and no one would show up in this lonely place at this time.
Jonas followed them to a small hill winding his way up the hillside. He could sense an eerie atmosphere emanating from the place. He speculated that the hill’s summit was the hiding place of the vampire.
As he continued, a voice suddenly called out from in front of him:
“Who are you? Why have you come here?”
It seemed to be the guard of this place.
Jonas halted, gripping the handle of his guiding cane tightly. Today, he didn’t intend to spare anyone.
In the dim light of the night, two figures appeared, holding hurricane lamps. As they scrutinized Jonas’s appearance, they sneered, their attitudes resembling those of the three thugs he had just dealt with.
“Oh, it’s just a blind beggar. Listen, if you want to live, get out of here. Otherwise, I’ll give you a lesson you’ll never forget.”
“Wait a minute, why let him go so easily? We should at least extort something from him,” one thug said, intending to drive Jonas away. But the other one held him back.
Afterward, he turned to Jonas and shouted arrogantly, “Pay the toll, and I’ll let you go.”
He extended his hand, confidently advancing toward Jonas. Just then, a dazzling light flashed, and the cry that followed pierced the sky.
“Ahhhhh!”
A single sword strike had severed his arm, and it lay twitching in the snow.
Jonas’s guiding cane had transformed into a sword in his hand, and he stood boldly in the snow. The remaining thug turned pale, his entire body trembling like a strand of noodles.
“W-what... is this?..”

Latest Chapter
Chapter 135: The end!
Facing Evan and Brendan’s questions, Jonas remained silent saying nothing. He had a strange feeling; normally, whenever Alice appeared, only he could see her. But this time was different; Alice appeared open in front of everyone. This made Jonas suspicious, finally thinking that Alice had some malicious intentions.“Jonas, our system has an issue. Do you want to reset everything?” Without waiting for Jonas to respond, Alice went straight to the point, a smile still on her lips.“System issues? Is there really a problem with the system, or is this some damn scenario of yours?”“The system is indeed having problems. You should reset everything!” Alice repeated her words.Jonas had run out of patience by now. He directly exposed Alice’s true face and what she called the system.“There’s nothing wrong here! Everything is your play. Why did door open earlier? Don’t tell me it opened coincidentally, with no arrangement! Everything, all of it, is your script!” When this door suddenly opened,
Chapter 134: Do you know her? What’s going on?
“It’s... it’s Cuktor!” Etham pointed towards Cuktor, the one who had just dealt a blow to Charlette. All present there looked at Cuktor with wide eyes. His unexpected appearance, standing alongside Jonas and his group, was a shock to them. None of them had ever dreamed of a day when Cuktor and Jonas’ team would stand together on the same battlefield.“No need to look at me with such wide eyes. I’m not here to protect you all. I’m here just to protect my chance to return to my paradise!” Cuktor turned towards Jonas’ group and spoke. The reason he took the risk to come here was singular – to protect Jonas’s eyes. Lucia’s eyes had been elusive for nearly a thousand years; he had even turned Christina’s parents’ house upside down, finding no clues. Now, if Jonas’s eyes fell into Charlette’s hands, any chance of returning to his paradise would be utterly lost.On Charlette’s side, she was shocked that she had been ambushed, and the ambusher was none other than Cuktor, the one who considere
Chapter 133: It’s over. Everything is over!
Etham, Evan, Christina, and Mei landed on the ground in a heap. Before them lay an incredibly unfamiliar space.“Darn! Where on earth is this?” Etham said, brushing off the dust on his clothes. Just a second ago, they were still in Christina’s house, and now they found themselves in this strange place.Evan glanced around, shaking his head. This was also his first time in this location. Evan had never heard his grandfather mention this place before.“But don’t you guys think this place is incredibly luxurious?” The one speaking was Christina. Having lived in a luxurious mansion her whole life, there was hardly anything in the world she hadn’t seen. But a place this extravagant was a first for Christina.“Exactly! Look, everything is gold-plated, especially the door frame, which is grand and dazzling! Not to mention crystal, gems, and precious stones. Just counting the cost of craftsmanship and design alone is already an enormous figure! These things are all exquisitely designed,” Evan
Chapter 132: They... they seem to look towards us!
“There was one time I saw it in my parents’ room! A painting exactly like this scenery!” Mei exclaimed, surprised. She was sure she had seen it before, in her parents’ study! A painting identical to the forest in front of them.“Mei, are you sure?” Christina leaned down to ask Mei, her eyes filled with both hope and a hint of doubt.“I’m sure.”As soon as Mei said that, three pairs of eyes turned towards each other. Evan, Etham, and Christina - they could be the only hope and opportunity for these three.“Let’s go!”Evan was the first to change direction and run towards Christina’s house. Etham, Christina, and Mei pursued suit. They sprinted with all their might. Christina’s house was where Lucia’s eyes were kept, guarded by Christina’s parents. They were secretive, profound, and held many secrets. What they knew about this forest and its related stories seemed to be certain. For Evan’s group, only by unraveling the secrets of the forest could they find Jonas and Brendan. Time was run
Chapter 131: I saw a painting of this forest in my parents’ study!
The empty wooden bedspread, Brendan, had disappeared for a while now. Outside, the wind grew stronger with each passing moment, blowing the curtain straight into the empty room.“Brendan is missing!” Evan shouted loudly. In his heart, there was a great deal of anxiety; he didn’t know what was happening and couldn’t guess which force had taken Brendan away. Now they were stuck between Cuktor and the force behind that green-eyed bird. One wrong step could ruin the entire chessboard.“What’s going on? What’s happening?” Etham, one hand covering a yawn, the other hastily putting on a coat, rushed out of his room. He had been sleeping soundly when he heard Evan’s voice. Though he didn’t know what was happening, he came running.Behind Etham were Christina and Mei. Unlike Etham, the two siblings seemed much more alert.“Evan, what’s going on? Why did you say Brendan is missing?” Christina looked at Evan skeptically, clasping her younger sister’s hand.Evan was also quite distressed now; Bre
Chapter 130: Etham, something’s wrong with Jonas!
“I’m sorry, I... I... I was just scared of you!” Brendan trembled incessantly. In reality, he had intended to lie like the others, saying that Charlette was good and beautiful just to get through the situation. However, Brendan couldn’t bring himself to do it. He didn’t come here willingly, nor did he willingly eat those foods. He did all those things out of fear. Furthermore, looking at Jonas gave Brendan the motivation to speak the truth. The girl who claimed to be the queen brought him here for one reason only – to force Jonas to give her his eyes. Since then, she had been providing reasons to persuade Jonas. If Brendan now lied, saying Charlette was a good person, the probability of fooling Jonas would be higher. Brendan knew that Jonas trusted those around him, and the words of those subordinates might not be believed, but Brendan’s words sometimes could sway Jonas. Perhaps that was why Charlette asked Brendan if she was a good person. She only wanted to prove to Jonas that givin
