Chapter 383 Arthur's Vampire Journey Begins



The two remaining vampires did not understand what Arthur meant with the whole dragon thing. There was no way for him to be a dragon. That passed through their minds when they dashed toward Arthur with fists ready to punch.

Arthur was ready for it, and in a regular battle, he would be more careful when fighting against two rank three mages, but a fight about who had the stronger body? He was not scared about that!

The first vampire came with a right hook, one Arthur easily dodged by ducking down, and then he twisted his body to kick the vampire in the belly!

"Fast!"

Everything happened so fast the first vampire did not have time to react as Arthur\'s foot met his stomach.

"Aggr!" the vampire yelled, flying away and hitting the basement wall.

He spat blood, and the damage it did to him was not light, making them worry about whether they would win the fight.

"Are you okay?" asked the other vampire, who could not believe his partner had gone flying like a dummy.

Arthur saw it, yet another action he could take advantage of. Didn\'t the vampires teach them not to talk about a useless thing during combat?

The other vampire looked at his partner for only half a second, but with Arthur\'s speed, it was more than enough to land a clean punch on his face. It was so strong that the vampire\'s fangs came out of his mouth, turning him into a fangless vampire.

After the first exchange, the two vampires knew it would be impossible to win in melee combat alone against Arthur, so they dashed toward the avatar, grabbing it to act as a hostage.

"A low blow," thought Arthur.

He did not wish for his avatar to die like that, so he said, "what do you want?"

When those vampires saw they had the upper hand with the hostage, the one who received the kick said, "we want to leave this shop alive, and then we will let go of this elf."

The situation was not looking good for Arthur, and there wasn\'t much he could do to turn the table.

"Just let him go. He does not have anything to do with this," Arthur said.

"Nothing to do with this? Wasn\'t he the person who locked our mana? Now that I think of it, what kind of technique is this? I have never seen something like it!"

They now believed the elf was not as simple as he looked, which made them think Arthur would not do anything and would let them go peacefully.

Also, one of them said after realizing that "we want to change terms, we will leave this place alive, and the elf will come with us."

Arthur could not let them go, especially if they wanted to go with his avatar! They would certainly kill it to get the secret behind the techniques, which was something he could not let them do!

"No, that cannot happen," Arthur said firmly.

There was one move he could do, and seeing how close they were, it would not harm him.

"The Void Step!"

The place did not allow anyone to use mana, but it was not a common spell but a technique from the dragons! It would take a lot more to stop it, so Arthur performed it without problems, disappearing from their sight.

It happened fast, less than one second, and Arthur was already behind the two, grabbing their neck and exerting his incredible strength to crack them. They did not even see what killed them.

"Now, where will I hide four bodies?" Arthur thought, placing his hand on his head.

Jane and Wisa went to talk with Alessia, who was happy with the promotion and could not believe it had happened so fast. They also looked for someone to hire and found a gorgeous girl who had worked as a saleswoman and looked like a decent person.

Still, they would interview her by the morning to decide if they would hire her or not, so there was something else they needed to do.

"What happened here?" asked Jane when they went inside the basement and saw Arthur cleaning the blood from the ground and walls.

He had a bucket and a broom with a rag.

"Vampires. They came and died fighting me. I hope they don\'t try anything with the other workers of this place."

It was not the first time someone attacked him inside his store. Arthur was someone who could defend himself, but what about the other employees of the shop? Who were weaker?

"We should hire bodyguards to stay here at night too, and not only during the day. Most will attack at night anyway.

"Correct. The shop has many customers during the day, so no one will be fool enough to try something."

"Let\'s look for it tomorrow. We need to clean this up before the shop reopens tomorrow..."

After cleaning up the shop, Arthur had to dispose of the bodies, and the sewers were the only places he thought would be possible.

It was easy to access them as one of the sewer doors was right in front of his shop, and during the middle of the night, dodging any guards was not hard -- especially with Arthur\'s speed.

He tossed the four bodies inside the sewer and burnt them using fire spells. That way, no one would find the bodies, and the only thing in the sewers would be the smell, but the sewers did not smell good in the first place, so no one would find it strange.

"So, how was it?" Jane asked when Arthur got home, chuckling a little bit, remembering the hard times they passed in the sewers the last time.

"It smelled like shit."

Wisa was at the table eating her dinner, and she said, "you mean it smelled like dead vampires."

"Haha, so funny, you two."

"So, we will not leave tomorrow, as we have other things to do to ensure nothing happens in the shop or to the employees, but my avatar can still go," Arthur said.

"Are you sure you want to send it being so weak? The journey could get dangerous."

"Not if I travel with convoys of merchants who have guards to protect us. Also, the vampire family will suspect a powerful vampire. I need to arrive there being weak and enter their army."

"Will they accept you?"

"Yes, I think. Shyvana told me the vampire families accept people during the whole year."

Arthur\'s avatar would be called Akhur, the same name he used previously.

While Arthur and his wives were chilling inside their house, Akhur left that night with only his clothing, a sword, and a small magical pouch.

There were lots of convoys of carriages leaving and entering the city. As winter approached, it was common for people, and places to store food, so the merchants had a lot of work to do, thus leaving the city constantly.

Arthur went to one of these merchants, who was shouting in the city\'s stable, "go, put those crates inside the carriage fast. We need to leave in one hour!"

"Can I join?" Arthur asked.

The merchant looked at him from head to toe and said, "can your slim body carry some crates? If yes, then you can come with us."

"It seems like my work never ends..." thought Arthur as he joined the rest of the men who were putting the crates inside the carriages. They all had a face of despair, and Arthur could tell why after he picked up the first crate.

"Heavy!"
