Chereads / Blood-Soaked Hawkeye(Dropped) / Chapter 52 - Sword Art

Chapter 52 - Sword Art

(You created Sword Art One Step: Purgatory Thrust.)

(Kıyamet is absorbing blood of your enemy.)

I managed to create a huge hole at her stomach. She looked at me with blood pouring from her mouth. I had no power left in my body. I fell down towards the ground. Hawkeye was deactivated due lack of strength. I couldn't see anything.

"Hawkeye!"

Someone shouted. Jonathan. Did one hour passed? Shit, venom. I must inform him. If he breathes any of it… My consciousness faded.

I jumped out of the bed I was in. Seeing Elizabeth just looking at her phone I was relaxed.

"What happ-Cough!"

"Relax a little bit."

Elizabeth said as she handed me a glass of water. My throat was sore. I drank the water.

"Rosalyn Leviathan."

She pointed to my sword. It was turned back to its normal form.

"You killed her. I am suprised."

"What about other monsters?"

"Hunters took care of them."

I sighed in relief. I sat down on the bed.

"You know it, didn't you?"

"Hmmm? Know what?"

"The fact that Leviathan family was in that dungeon. You sent me there to kill them. You used me."

She put down the phone she was looking.

"You are getting smarter. Good for you."

"People died, Elizabeth. If you told me before-"

"Could you stop it? Did you had the strength?"

I took a deep breath.

"If you want me to trust you, earn it."

She sighed.

"Okay, it was my fault. But in my defense I didn't thought things would go this far."

"Explain further."

She sighed.

"I only thought they were raising some low level monsters. I just wanted you to kill some servants."

"Firstly, that's horrible."

"Oh, come on! You saw how they behave!"

I picked my sword.

"Is there a list of the hunters that died during that raid?"

"It should be on news."

I picked up my phone which was on the table. I quickly searched the news. I sighed in relief. Jonathan, George and Emma were alive. Still the list was long. Out of 44 hunters that joined the raid, 33 survived. A quarter was dead.

"Horrible survival rate for a C rank dungeon."

Elizabeth just shrugged.

"We have bigger concerns. You currently have 2 vampire families and a Death Knight chasing your ass."

"What is our next move?"

"I tried to cover the tracks best I could. You are welcome. But remember, if you motive a council member enough they will find you."

"Do you think Melana Leviathan will try to find me?"

She clicked her tongue.

"I don't think she cares about her offsprings that much. Still, it is a big family."

I inspected my blade. Mana it carried changed.

(Kıyamet, Evolving Weapon)

(Stores blood of enemies.)

(Can transfer stored blood to user.)

(Skills can be used according to stored blood.)

(Currently 0 percent filled.)

Evolving? Holy shit! I looked at the Elizabeth.

"Yeah, I did realized it grew stronger. Did your Blood Reinforcement ranked up?"

She didn't realized it became an evolving weapon? Only 5 existed in entire world! Edward's main weapon literal fucking Excalibur was one of them! Now I held an evolving weapon in my hands? I didn't know all that much about them. No one except their owners did. All I know was the fact that they became powerful beyond imagination. They kept growing and gaining new abilities. Excalibur was so strong that Edward didn't used it unless it was an A ranked dungeon. According to my knowledge he never used it outside of dungeons. It was that strong. Maybe the weapon I held in my hands wasn't as strong now but one day…

"Let's not get so hasty."

It didn't matter how strong a weapon was if its wielder was shit.

"I assume you got stronger since you were able to defeat Rosalyn Leviathan."

"Yeah, I guess?"

She smiled. I didn't liked that smile.

"Good. I need you to kill someone."

"…"

"Don't look at me like that!"

"…"

"Come on!"

I sighed. I sometimes wondered if the reason for my white hair was Elizabeth.

"What the hell, Elizabeth."

She made a gesture for me to follow her. I started walking.

"I told you that vampires wanted to stay hidden didn't I?"

"Yeah. That was one of the first things you ordered me."

"While breaches of that rule happens all the time, it isn't something we can't fix with a quick hypnosis or manipulating the media. But there is someone. Someone is trying to "unveil" the veil."

"What makes you think that I can kill someone you can't?"

I felt really curious where this conversation will lead up to.

"It is not a matter of killing. It is matter of finding."

I sighed once again.

"My Hawkeye isn't all powerful. Even Edward…"

She put her finger to my lips to shut me up.

"You still don't realize. Why you never tried to open your other eye?"

Her finger moved towards my wounded eye. I tried to jump back without realing. Did my trauma went that deep.

"Stay."

Her stren voice made me froze. Even though I felt like a dog, I couldn't move. Her finger touched my finger and I cringed to my core. As she traced my scar, I felt the burning sensation Wolfgang's mana caused. I was returned back to that time and I wanted to scream.

"Open it."

"I can't!"

"You can. It is healed."

My body shook.

"It is not! Even Edwards told me-"

"Edward isn't a vampire. He is not your Origin. Your body is stronger. You gained the abilities other vampires couldn't for their entire lifes in a matter of months. You think you can't just heal an eye?"

I couldn't say anything.

"Fucking mental block."

She stopped touching me and I finally breathed.

"I guess it was too much to ask for."

She snapped her fingers.

"Okay, I know. You know what? Forget what I told you for now. I have another job for you."

Confused, I touched my eye.

"So, what do you know about Ghouls?"
