Chapter 21 - Chapter 21: fighting the witch

Asher could feel himself sweating as fear gripped his heart, the fireball was so big that he couldn't see the witch behind the fireball. Finally the fire ball reached Asher and he waved the sword against the fireball, cancelling the attack. Asher smiled wryly after blocking the deadly attack with the sword, but the fireball was meant to distract him.

A lightning bolt hit his chest and the attack threw Asher out of the room, his body pierced through the room wall. Landing in the hotel's hallway, Asher clutched his chest after the bolt had hit his chest, he reached for the sword that lay beside him. Then he stood up slowly as the witch approached him, the witch sent out two icicles to Asher's leg but Asher blocked the attack with the sword.

Asher ran towards the witch and he waved his sword at the witch, the witch avoided the attack by teleporting beside Asher. The witch made a large ice sword and he stabbed the sword at Asher but Asher parried the attack before slashing his sword at the witch.

The witch didn't know how to use a sword properly so he blocked the attack, obeying his instinct. He used the ice sword to block the attack but the ice sword shattered immediately Asher's sword hit it. The witch created distance between himself and Asher before sending dozens of wind blades at Asher.

Asher widened his eyes as the wind blades approached him, he raised his sword and he knelt under the sword. Some wind blades were blocked but few ones hit him, wounding his body. Asher managed to stand up but he was flung out of the hotel as a fire ball hit him.

Asher landed outside the hotel, in the midst of a market. Seeing on the ground writhing in pain with blood all over his body, the people in the market ran away from him. Asher stood up, sheathed his sword and he ran away from the witch, the witch seeing this also chased him. But the witch flew in the air as he chased Asher and he also threw fire balls at Asher as he chased Asher. The fire balls hurt Asher as he ran away from the witch but he didn't stop running from the witch, he couldn't defeat the witch.

He couldn't use his Vampire powers fully and the witch that attacked was also powerful so he had no chances of winning at all.

What he just hoped for is that he escaped from the witch then an arrow hit the witch stopping him from chasing Asher. The witch fell to the ground but he wasn't wounded because he conjured a shield at the last minute, preventing the arrow from hitting his body. Asher had a slight smile on his face as he looked at where the arrows came from then the smile froze.

He saw dozens of supernatural law enforcers approaching him and the witch, the enforcers are mages and some are archers. He already learned that supernatural law enforcers on Earth are mages, witches or archers. They were the ones that kept things peaceful, they got involved in cases involving supernaturals.

Asher quickly mingled with the crowd and he was able to avoid the law enforcers because their attention was focused on the witch. After all, the witch was the one in the sky, someone miles away would see him throwing attacks at someone on the ground but that person wouldn't see the person attacked. The witch seeing the enforcers quickly escaped with a teleportation spell because if they came close to him, they would set up an array and he would be stopped from using space magic. If the array was set up, he would be stopped from escaping quickly.

Asher also escaped the enforcers and he moved to the next street and he laid down under a bridge as he healed his wounds. He felt anger burning in his stomach, he lost the money, the crystal, a powerful witch already knows his identity as the Vampire and he got wounded. He regretted setting up a deal with Zeke in the first place, well he didn't expect Zeke to have a powerful brother.

His wounds healed slowly as he remained under the bridge, he gradually dozed off. An hour later, he woke up and he noticed that all his wounds were already healed. He stood up and walked away from the bridge and he realised that it was already night time.

" First thing is to get money." Asher muttered as he walked aimlessly around the street then he heard loud noises coming from a building nearby. He curiously walked towards the building, who would be making this kind of noise at night when everybody should be sleeping? Asher finally reached the building and he saw people giggling, laughing as they walked into the building then he also walked into the building. Getting into the building, he saw a large room illuminated with different lights ranging from red, blue, green and so on. He also heard music booming from the loudspeakers in the room, he saw people dancing with each other and he wondered what was going on. He searched his body memories but he couldn't find anything like this in his memories, it seems that the past owner of the body didn't frequent places like this.

" What's wrong with everyone? Where am I?" Asher blurted out as he looked around.

" Sweetie you are in a club." A female voice said behind him and Asher turned to face who talked to him.

" A club?" Asher repeated as he looked at the woman, she looked young, like she was in her early twenties. She also had a cute face complimented with heavy makeup, she was a bit slim with small breasts, she also had a ass that Asher wouldn't call little.

" Yes." The young lady said.

" Oh, what's your name? I am Asher." Asher said.

" I am Yona." Yona said as she smiled seductively with a bit of confidence.

" Are you new here?" Yona asked as she moved closer to Asher.

" Yes… it seems you know a bit about this place." Asher said.

" Yes, I could show you around." Yona said.

" No, I have to leave, I have things to do." Asher declined but a memory suddenly hit him and he changed his mind.

" That's bad." Yona said as she scowled.

" Well I just changed my mind… show me around Yona." Asher said with a bright smile on his face and he placed his hands on her shoulder.

" My pleasure." Yona said and she led him through the dancing crowd before she led him to a couch then they sat on the couch.

" I thought you wanted to show me around." Asher said as he looked at Yona.

" I can do that from here." Yona responded and she started pointing her hands to the places that were in the club. She showed him the bar, the smoking part of the club, the VIP area that intrigued Asher and the rest room.

" Let's get something to drink." Yona said as she looked at Asher.

" But you just said I have to pay to drink."

" I will take care of that." Yona said and she pulled Asher to the bar. She got both of them alcohol and she paid for it. After drinking for minutes, Yona led them to the dancing area and they danced before they went back to get more drinks.

After drinking for thirty minutes, Asher noticed that Yona was already drunk but Yona kept insisting that she wasn't drunk so he took her to a nearby couch.

" You are not drunk?" Yona asked Asher.

" I don't even feel anything close to being drunk." Asher responded as he chuckled, the alcohol felt like water, maybe humans alcohol didn't affect supernaturals.

" Give me a minute, I want to go use the restroom." Asher said and he stood up but he was pulled back to the couch and Yona kissed him. She kissed him passionately but Asher separated the kiss.

" Why?" Yona asked.

" Give me a minute." Asher ignored the question and he headed to the restroom. He entered the toilet specified for males use then he did his thing but before he could leave the toilet, a woman walked in. Asher looked at the woman and an amused smile crept over his mouth.

" I thought Yona said this place is only for males." Asher said as he looked at the woman.

" Yes it is." The woman said and she moved closer to Asher.

" Then what are you doing here?" Asher asked.

" I have to talk to you."

" Then do." Asher prompted.

" I am Lana." Lana said and he stopped, Asher was confused, she just approached him and she introduced herself.

" So Lana, you came to tell me your name?" Asher asked.

" No, I came to tell you that you are stupid!" Lana shouted and the smile on Asher's face froze.

" Why would you say that?" Asher asked as he regained his smile.

" Don't you know that this is a werewolf territory and yet you are here without anything to conceal your smell!" Lana shouted and Asher finally realised the trouble he just got into.
