Draconic Vampire : Curse of the Blood

Chapter 60: I Will See You Soon

The powerful punch headed straight to Keith’s face, but he stayed still without flinching. He could tell that the punch was not threatening to him. The baron-level vampire who attacked him just now was only using one-third of his power, which showed that he had no intention of killing him.

He probably wanted to severely injure him or give him a couple of bruises. That’s why he held back his punch. Still, it was nothing for Keith as he was already used to receiving punches from the final stage viscount.

Now that he understood the level difference, he realized his uncle didn’t use his full power. He looked like he was desperate, but this was because he used only his raw strength and didn’t use any advanced blood-qi techniques.

Compared to his attacks, this was child’s play for Keith. He raised his blood-qi a little and swung his arm vertically. The incoming attack was blocked and the man lost his balance after his hand was diverted sideways.

Bang! 

He crashed into the nearby wall. The other vampire boy who was watching this was surprised by the sudden turn of events. One moment he was talking to this new kid and then his friend attacked the kid.

He was still processing this but it ended as quickly as it started. When he looked over to his friend, who was getting up with a twisted face, he felt things would escalate even further.

“Hey! Hey! Can we just take a minute to relax and talk it out?” he said while gesturing his hands up and down.

“You tell him. I was just having a normal conversation with you and he just attacked me out of nowhere.” Keith said with an annoyed face.

Keith was in a great mood after absorbing so much blood-qi from the training chamber. Now, this person just pounced on him for no reason and started talking about academy rules.

He was brought here by Mr. Visit to see the training chambers, he didn’t just break-in. Besides, he didn’t know the rules of the academy in the first place as his stay here didn’t even amount to a day.

“Would you just think straight for a moment? How can he come here unauthorized? The doors require an identification that is approved by the higher-ups. If he’s here, he must be authorized to do so.”  The younger man looked at his friend and said with a serious tone.

“So what? He’s a junior and dared to disrespect me? I will punish him myself.” 

The man got up and was ready to attack again but the younger man looked at him and shook his head.

“Why are you defending him?” 

“I’m not. But we shouldn’t cause trouble here. If the dean were to find out, it will be a hassle.” The young man massaged his temple.

Hearing this, the other man slowed his blood-qi circulation. He looked at Keith with a frustrated look and snorted lightly. 

“I will remember you. This disrespect, I will punish you when you get out of here.” He said to Keith as he brushed past Keith.

“Sure, I am looking forward to meeting you.” Keith smiled back and walked outside the door. 

He wanted to act, but when he heard the man would seek him out later, he controlled himself. Another plan had popped into his mind. An evil smile crept across his face as he exited the training facility.

Back in the training chamber, the two vampires entered a hall with many structures spread across the room. They activated their identity cards and the structures changed shape and several types of weapons appeared in front of them.

“Hey! Why are you so silent?” The older one asked.

“You know why? I asked you specifically to not cause any trouble inside the training facility but to go ahead and attack that first-year student, you were really reckless” The younger one looked annoyed.

“So what? He didn’t die or get injured. Besides, we could say that he attacked first. Who would know? And nobody would believe him even if he refused.” 

“How much power did you use during your attack?” 

“About a third of my blood-qi. I was just trying to catch him off guard during the conversation. I wanted to see at least a broken nose.” A hollow laugh escaped the older vampire.

“But he didn’t get a scratch even though you suddenly attacked him. Why do you think that is?” 

“I don’t know. Maybe he was already alert, and didn’t let his guard down.” 

“I wish that were true. But I sensed his blood-qi. It was not a slight bit irritated when you attacked him or when he moved his arm. His blood-qi stayed stable throughout like he didn’t even think this attack was worth getting worked upon.” 

“That can’t be possible. How can he not circulate his full blood-qi, when I attacked him with almost a third of my power.” A shocked expression appeared on the older vampire’s face.

“So, now you realize. I think you forgot to pay attention after drowning in jealousy.” 

“That..” 

“This is interesting. He could block one of your attacks without using blood-qi, not even using any blood-qi techniques. He is quite capable.” The younger vampire scratched his chin with an amused look.

“He’s just a sneaky little brat. He may have gotten lucky and found a bunch of bloodstones or something. His family is even unknown on the southern continent.” 

“Alright. I want to see his limit. You can do whatever you want but don’t kill him. If he is seriously injured, heal him. Make sure nobody sees this. Or else we will be put on probation again. I worked really hard to keep those academy scums off my tail.”

“Hehe… now that you approved, I will have fun torturing that kid. He will remember my face until he leaves this academy, or maybe the rest of his life.” The older vampire laughed out loud.

The structures moved forward and surrounded the two from all directions. Both of them circulated their blood-qi and prepared for the attacks.

With a whistling sound, all the weapons shot forward at the two figures in the middle.

Crack! Crack! 

The young vampire smashed two weapons and they turned into dust and got absorbed in the ground. The runes changed and merged with the weapon’s runes. 

The older vampire was struggling against two scythes. When he saw the younger vampire take out two of them with a single attack, a look of jealousy flashed across his face. He was the strongest vampire under viscount. He even defeated an early stage viscount given that viscount was recently promoted. Still, it was something he could never do.

“I need to find that little rat and vent my frustration.” He mumbled.
