The Reincarnated Vampire - Part 2

Jay was completely confused. He was sure that many of the present beings were vampires but was unsure why they were wanting the execution of just one small girl.

In any case, his heart was throbbing in pain. It was as if he was seeing himself on the pillar.

"Should I help her?", Jay murmured to himself.

'Huh? What did I just say?', Jay's eyes widened the moment those words left his mouth.

He looked at the vampire yet again because the words that he spoke, had never left his mouth for a hundred years now.

Yes, no matter how many people or how many beings he had seen death, he never had such thoughts or such words coming out of his mouth despite having the chance to save them.

'Wait a second, did I really just say that?', yes, he was quite confused.

But more than that, it seemed as if devils were standing in front of him. All the vampires seemed like a devil, in fact, in his eyes, everyone was a devil.

He had been bullied a lot and had come to hate life itself. That was why whomever he say, instead of their face, he would see a devil cackling!

However, when he saw Isabelle, he could see her face. In fact, tears ran down his eyes.

Angels had the supreme authority since they were direct subordinates of God(s) or Goddess(es). This meant that they were without a doubt stronger than most other races.

Luke started to walk towards Isabelle while hiding his wings. Yes, he had already withdrawn his wings.

The crowd was huge, however, there was a straight path to the pillar which was the path via which Isabelle had been dragged.

There was blood on the path and no one dared to stand on that path. In fact, they detested it!

Luke, regardless of what they thought, walked down the same path. All the vampires that were shouting for execution suddenly stopped.

It was as if they found something much more detestable. The little girl Isabelle had one of her eyes pierced however the other eye was fine, although it was damaged a lot.

She could regenerate and heal like other vampires, however, the regeneration had been inhibited because of some power used by other vampires!

*tap tap*

"He..."

Everyone was stunned by Luke's actions. He didn't care for anyone's opinion and continued to walk until he reached the pillar.

The sole reason that none of the guards that were present there did anything was that they were waiting for the orders of the only royal vampire present there.

There was a wooden staircase and platform built near it. The vampires had probably used that to hang her at such height.

Luke walked up the platform and then cut the ropes which tied her. She fell on his arms exactly when he removed the thorny rope that was around her neck with just the swift of his hand.

"Wha-"

"What the heck are you doing?", shouted many of the vampires.

Luke didn't care, it was as if he had shut his ears.

He asked, "Are you alright?"

His voice sounded warm and so soothing that the girl was thrown into tears.

While one of her eyes continued to bleed, tears ran down her other eye.

"It..."

"It hurts, please..."

*cough*

"Kill..."

"Please ki... m...", the girl murmured.

Her voice was soft, in fact, her vocal cords seemed to have been damaged too.

'Just how much did they make this girl suffer?'

'She is begging and yearning for death, she might have gone through irresistible pain...', Luke pitied her and at the same time, he felt as if everything was done against him!

The ones who had hanged her were some royal vampires who had done it for fun, but the citizens took part in it.

It was like a hunting game to them.

"Guards, what are you doing!? Kill him!" - shouted one of the nobles that stood a bit far away from the platform.

"Hyaaa!"

He was a vampire, a greedy and irresistible one, and the guards who rushed towards Luke, to kill, were strong vampires.

"Vampires are immortal, that is how God created them..."

"They are never supposed to die..."

"That is the rule you have set, isn't that right God?"

"..."

"I'm sorry to break that rule...", he murmured all this which was audible only to himself and Isabelle.

Luke lifted his right hand towards the vampires right after which, a dark fog started to appear around the vampires which consumed them almost immediately.

All that was left was a large amount of blood! Yes, the muscles, flesh, and skeletons including their clothes and armors vanished while only their blood remained.

The blood was the same shape as that of a body which then fell on the ground.

*splash*

All the vampires that were standing close to the platform bathed in the blood that splattered after falling down.

Since they were citizens, they were suddenly taken aback by such a happening.

"You bastard!"

"You lowly being!"

"How dare you interrupt my fun!?", the royal vampire said.

The so-called royal vampire seemed to be like a human who was roughly around twenty or twenty-one, of course, this was only a comparison since the vampire's age was far more.

"I will handle this myself!", he shouted and rushed with all his might.

There were only four guards out of which two were killed a second ago by Luke. Now the remaining two followed their master, the royal vampire, and tried to attack Luke.

This time they brought spears along with them in order to pierce Luke.

"Say, if you were given a chance, then will you try to live?", Luke addressed this question to Isabelle.

He used thought acceleration which made it seem as if time had slowed down.

"I..."

"I will live..."

'I will live for your sake...', was her inner thought which she couldn't bring out because she lost the little energy that she had left.

*slash*

*stab*

*stab*

A sword slashed Luke's right arm and two spears pierced his chest.

"..."
